TRUCKING FINED * USA: For Air Quality Violations
* California - Randy’s Trucking Inc. will pay $524,675 to California’s Air Resources Board
-- The case is the largest ever settled for failure to comply with California’s landmark Truck and Bus Regulation, which is intended to cut harmful diesel emissions throughout the state... The Bakersfield-based company will pay $392,755 to the Air Pollution Control fund to support air quality research, and $130,920 to the San Joaquin Valley Air Pollution Control District to clean up school bus fleets throughout the state, for violating a variety of air quality regulations ... Randy’s Trucking failed to meet these requirements for all its 1996 through 2006 model year heavy-duty vehicles... In addition, Randy’s did not properly self-inspect its diesel trucks to ensure that they met state smoke emission standards as required by state law. The company also failed to check that engines were properly labeled, or ensure their trucks met annual emissions compliance requirements... The trucking company has since agreed to pay its fine and will also follow all requirements of California’s Periodic Smoke Inspection Program, Emission Control Label Regulation, and the Statewide Truck and Bus Regulation...
