Status Report on Opt-In to State Surplus Off-Road Opt-In for NOx Program
and Adopt Proposed Rule 1197 – Control of Oxides of Nitrogen from
Off-Road Diesel Vehicles
Under the CARB recently adopted
Section 2449.3, Title 13 of the California Code of Regulations (CCR),
air districts must opt-in to the program to further reduce oxides of
nitrogen emissions from off-road diesel vehicles. This action is for
the Board to consider opting in to the program known as “Surplus
Off-Road Opt-In for NOx (SOON)” and adopt Proposed Rule 1197 to
implement Section 2449.3, Title 13 of the CCR. Under the SOON Program
affected fleets must apply for public funding assistance and, if
awarded, must complete the proposed project. Proposed Rule 1197
incorporates Section 2449.3 by reference and contains additional
provisions for AQMD to implement the SOON Program including additional
