bus-ub -- Emission compliance deadline for agencies on the Alternative Fuel Path
Posted: 19 Aug 2008 14:57:04
ARB is reminding transit agencies on the Alternative Fuel Path of the January 1, 2009 emission compliance deadline for particulate matter (PM) emissions. The Urban Bus Regulation contained in title 13, California Code of Regulations, section 2023.1(e)(4) requires that no later than January 1, 2009, the diesel (PM) emission total for a transit agency on the alternative fuel path shall be no more than 15 percent of its diesel PM emission total on January 1, 2002 or equal to 0.01 g/bhp-hr times the total number of current diesel-fueled active fleet buses, which ever is greater. Transit agencies on the alternative fuel path that have not reduced their PM emissions by 85 percent or met the 0.01 g/bhp-hr PM fleet average should develop PM emission reduction plans to meet this important requirement. Questions regarding these requirements should be directed to Ms. Kathleen Mead, Manager, at (916) 324-9550, or by e-mail at kmead@arb.ca.gov; or Mr. Eric Bissinger, Air Pollution Specialist, at (916) 324-9424, or by e-mail ebissing@arb.ca.gov.
