tru -- Air Resources Board Transport Refrigeration Unit Regulation
Posted: 14 Dec 2009 16:31:52
The Air Resources Board’s (ARB) Transport Refrigeration Unit (TRU) Airborne Toxic Control Measure (ATCM) remains in effect for TRUs operating in California, including the December 31, 2009, requirements for the first phase of TRUs (model year 2002 and older). ARB held a public meeting on December 9, 2009, to receive an update on implementation of the separate Truck and Bus Rule. The Board directed its staff to return in April 2010 with a new provision that would provide truck fleets more flexibility in cleaning up their diesel emissions under the state's Truck and Bus Rule, in light of the recession's effect on the industry. The Board’s action was specific to the Truck and Bus Rule. It does not affect the implementation of the TRU ATCM that was adopted to quickly reduce the health risk from diesel soot in impacted communities near distribution centers, truck stops, rail yards, ports, and delivery points starting in 2009.
