Long Beach, L.A. Port Clean Truck Program Rolling Ahead

Fleet Oil and Truck Supply continues to pass along information about the Clean Truck Program.  The following information is from the Port of Long Beach Community Newsletter dated Fall 2008. 

In an effort to reduce air pollution 80% by 2012 the Port has initiated the “Clean Truck Program”.  This will be achieved by assuring that all trucks calling at the Port will meet the stringent 2007 federal emission standards.  As of October 1, 2008, all trucks built before 1989 will be banned from working in Port shipping terminals.  By 2012 only trucks meeting the 2007 standards will be allowed to work.  Through a financial assistance program, the Port is helping truckers replace their trucks.  Application for Truck Replacement Funding
