CLEAN TRUCKS * USA - Harbor commissioners approve new Program regulations

The new regulations now allowed under the Clean Truck Program, including a ban on independent drivers entering the Port of Los Angeles by the end of 2013

Port of Los Angeles,CAL,USA -Daily Breeze, by Art Marroquin -27 Sept 2010: -- After gaining clearance from a federal judge, the Los Angeles Board of Harbor Commissioners on Monday approved new regulations now allowed under the Clean Truck Program, including a ban on independent drivers entering the Port of Los Angeles by the end of 2013... Trucking companies doing business at the nation's busiest port will have more than three years to hire all their drivers as employees under the phased-in plan... Under the stepped plan, 20 percent of shipments hauled by trucking companies must be completed by employee drivers by the end of 2011. After that, 66 percent of the shipments must be completed by employees by the end of 2012, with full compliance by the end of 2013... Motor carriers also will have until Jan. 1, 2011, to submit off-street parking plans and will be given an additional six months to implement the plan... Other aspects of the program go into effect Friday, including a requirement to show financial ability to do business at the port, along with keeping all records available for future audits by harbor department officials...
