The 2011 amendments to the CHE Regulation provide additional
flexibility to owners/operators, maintain the anticipated
emissions reduction benefits of the regulation, and clarify
several provisions in the regulation.  The amendments address
several areas including: retrofit requirements, operational
requirements, emission standards, compliance requirements,
definitions, and other clarifying language.  A more detailed
explanation is available at:

Cargo handling equipment is used to transfer goods or perform
maintenance and repair activities and includes equipment such as
yard trucks (hostlers), rubber-tired gantry cranes, top handlers,
side handlers, forklifts, and loaders.  The Regulation for Mobile
Cargo Handling Equipment at Ports and Intermodal Rail Yards was
adopted in December 2005 to reduce diesel particulate matter in
communities located near ports and intermodal rail yards.
