This page finalized November 8, 2004.
$25,000 PAID BY TWO SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA COMPANIES FOR VIOLATIONS OF DIESEL FLEET REGULATIONS
A Los Angeles County construction company has agreed to pay $10,000 in penalties,
and an Imperial County trash hauling company has agreed to pay $15,000 in penalties, both from violating air quality
regulations.
An investigation by the ARB showed that Valley Environmental Services
(VES) of Imperial California, failed to properly
self-inspect their diesel trucks to assure the trucks met state smoke
emission standards. ARB documented violations as they related to the
Periodic Smoke Inspection Program (PSI). The ARB presented their
investigation
results to both the California District Attorney's Association and the
District Attorney's Office of Imperial County.
To settle the case, VES agreed to the $15,000 penalty and to comply
with the PSI Program.
An investigation by the ARB showed that Irish Construction of Rosemead, California failed to properly self-inspect
their diesel trucks to assure the trucks met state smoke emission standards. ARB documented violations
as they relate to the PSI. To settle the case, Irish Construction agreed to the $10,000 penalty and to comply
with the PSI Program.
