NOTE: The Truck and Bus Upload and Compliance Reporting System (TRUCRS) title is used for two separate databases. The two databases are currently not connected due to technical difficulties. Please use the Truck and Bus Reporting System for Truck and Bus Regulation reporting, and use the TRUCRS reporting listed below for Tractor-Trailer Green House Gas reporting.
Fleets of 53-foot or longer box-type trailers and the tractors that pull them must report in order to take advantage of the Tractor-Trailer Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Regulation flexibility using the Truck Regulation Upload, Compliance, and Reporting System (TRUCRS) Database.
Please see the note under Truck and Bus Reporting section above.
Other types of equipment may also have reporting requirements.
- Off-Road
Diesel Vehicles:
Off-road diesel equipment that is self propelled is required to report using the Diesel Off-Road On-Line Reporting System (DOORS).
- Stationary
and Portable Equipment:
Owners or operators of portable engines and certain other types of equipment can register their units under the Air Resources Board's (ARB) Statewide Portable Equipment Registration Program (PERP) in order to operate their equipment throughout California without having to obtain individual permits from local air districts.
