SB 715: Vehicular air pollution: regulations: exemption.

Existing law imposes various limitations on the emissions of air contaminants for the control of air pollution from vehicular and nonvehicular sources. Pursuant to that authority, the State Air Resources Board has adopted a regulation to reduce oxides of nitrogen, diesel particulate matter, and other criteria air pollutant emissions from in-use, off-road, diesel-fueled vehicles.

This bill would require the state board to exempt, except as specified, a vehicle owned or operated by a state-registered nonprofit apprenticeship training program from any regulation to reduce emissions of diesel particulate matter, oxides of nitrogen, and other criteria air pollutants from in-use, off-road, diesel-fueled vehicles, as specified.
