ARB will be hosting a training seminar on the 2010 Off-road
Diesel Vehicle requirements for large fleets in Sacramento on the
morning of February 10th, 2010.   This seminar will be aimed at
helping large fleets understand the requirements related to the
March 1, 2010, compliance date, and following a brief overview of
the regulation for large fleets will provide information on:

•  New Reduced Horsepower and Reduced Activity Credits – Many,
if not most, fleets will be able to use these credits so that
they will not need to install retrofits or turn over vehicles
prior to the March 1, 2010 compliance deadline.  We will discuss
how to claim the credits, what records need to be submitted,
etc.
•  DOORS 2010 Compliance Summary – We will go over how to view
your fleet’s compliance status in DOORS.
•  Fleet Average Calculator Examples – We will provide examples
of how to use the calculator (revised in September 2009) to plan
for compliance.
•  Retrofit Visibility – We will provide an overview of how to
use the ARB/OSHA visibility assessment methodology to evaluate a
vehicle prior to installing a retrofit to be sure it does not
create a visibility impairment, and how to apply for a temporary
retrofit exemption if this is not possible for a specific
vehicle.

ARB plans to webcast this seminar, and will follow up this
save-the-date notice with more information on the exact time and
webcast information as soon as possible.

Please note that this training is not intended as an overview of
the in-use off-road diesel vehicle regulation.  Such an overview
is available via ARB’s course 512; for more information, please
