At its May 5, 2006 meeting, the Board issued a Program Announcement that
included making available $5,449,000 in state funds to retrofit diesel school
buses. On October 6, the Board awarded 452 PM traps to public schools and
private operators. Since then additional state funds have become available for
PM trap retrofits, along with interest money and excess unused funds from
previous PM trap awards. This action is to re-issue the retrofit part of the PA
seeking additional applications for PM traps from public school districts and
private operators, with the condition that all awarded PM traps must be
retrofitted by June 2008.
