However, due to known health and air quality impacts, ARB adopted truck and bus regulations in 2008 to control diesel PM emissions. ARB also administers the Carl Moyer Program, which provides grants to fund “cleaner than required” engine upgrades, or retrofits that reduce PM 2.5 and other pollutants.

With the amended regulations in place, diesel particulate matter emissions will be reduced from today’s levels by 50% by 2014 and 70% by 2020, according to ARB. Approved in December 2008, this regulation will clean up emissions from the nearly one million heavy duty diesel trucks that operate in California. —ARB Chairman Mary D.

Since its launch in 2011, the regulation has generated a multitude of unique approaches for cleaner fuels. Together, LCFS and Cap-and-Trade provide a structure to ensure that necessary emission reductions are achieved and provide an effective market signal to accelerate innovation and development of cleaner fuels.

Finally, the State should provide incentives to accelerate market transitions to cleaner technologies that foster significant system-wide solutions to cut emissions of SLCPs. CARB began publicly evaluating controls for SLCPs with the first AB 32 Scoping Plan in 2008. SLCP emission reductions will support achieving these targets.

While current state and federal measures are on target to reduce toxic diesel locomotive emissions 65% or more by 2020, additional measures recommended by ARB staff would ultimately provide up to 85% or greater emissions reductions within the rail yards over the same period, resulting in cleaner air for nearby residential neighborhoods as well.
