These requirements became effective on May 25, 2011 and the mail-out can be viewed at the following website: http://www.arb.ca.gov/msprog/mailouts/msc1116/msc1116.pdf.

BACKGROUND: Proposition 1B, which was approved by the voters on November 7th, 2006, enacts the Highway Safety, Traffic Reduction, Air Quality, and Port Security Bond Act of 2006. This bond act authorizes $200 million for replacing and retrofitting school buses through the Lower-Emission School Bus Program. Funds shall be available upon appropriation by the Legislature for the Lower-Emission School Bus Program to fund replacement school buses and retrofit devices thereby reducing air pollution and reducing children's exposure to diesel exhaust.
