CARB OKs $200 Million in Emissions Funding

The California Air Resources Board has awarded $200 million in Proposition 1B funds to help cut emissions from heavy-duty trucks and other sources in the state’s four busiest trade corridors.

The Los Angeles/Inland Empire, Central Valley, Bay Area and San Diego/Border regions received the money from the funding approved in a 2006 statewide referendum.

The money will be used for grants that will help independent truck owners and others comply early with the statewide truck rule adopted in 2008.
