CLEAN TRUCKS * USA - Oakland port to ban older trucks
Port of Oakland Bans Drayage Trucks With Older Engines. Exceeds ARB Requirements
Oakland,CAL,USA -eTrucker -12 Oct 2009: -- The Oakland Board of Port Commissioners last week adopted a strict truck ban effective 1 January 2010, barring drayage trucks with engine year models earlier than 1994 at the Oakland seaport... Drayage trucks with engine year models between 1994 and 2003 will have to be retrofitted with diesel particulate filters to enter Port of Oakland maritime facilities... The Port of Oakland’s drayage truck ban goes well beyond the requirements of the California Air Resources Board (CARB) regulations by establishing a turn-away requirement for non-compliant trucks at the seaport... The Port of Oakland truck ban would require that the seaport facility operator deny entry to drayage trucks, with very limited exceptions, for those who cannot demonstrate compliance with the CARB January 2010 clean trucks deadline...
