(a)Purpose. The purpose of this regulation is to reduce emissions and public exposure to diesel particulate matter (diesel PM), oxides of nitrogen (NOx), and other air contaminants by setting emission standards for in-use, heavy-duty diesel-fueled vehicles that transport cargo to and from California's ports and intermodal rail facilities.(b)Applicability. This section shall apply to entities listed below through December 31, 2022. Starting January 1, 2023, drayage trucks are subject to the provisions of title 13, California Code of Regulations, section 2025, the Regulation to Reduce "Emissions of Diesel Particulate Matter, Oxides of Nitrogen and Other Criteria Pollutants from In-Use Heavy Duty Diesel-Fueled Vehicles (Truck and Bus Regulation)", which requires that all not otherwise exempt in-use on-road diesel vehicles, including drayage trucks, have a 2010 model year emissions equivalent engine by January 1, 2023. (1) This regulation applies to owners and operators of on-road diesel-fueled, alternative diesel-fueled and dual-fueled heavy-duty drayage trucks that operate in California, "motor carriers" that dispatch drayage trucks that operate in California, "marine or port terminals," "intermodal rail yards," and "rail yard and port authorities."(2) This regulation does not apply to: (A) dedicated use vehicles;(B) vehicles operating under an ARB authorized emergency decree;(C) authorized emergency vehicles;(D) military tactical support vehicles;(E) vehicles that operate at port or intermodal rail yard properties in which the ARB Executive Officer has granted an annual exemption under the provisions of subsection (f) to local port or rail yard authorities; and(c)Definitions. For purposes of this section, the definitions of Health and Safety Code section 39010 through 39060 apply except to the extent that such definitions may be modified by the following definitions that apply specifically to this regulation. (1) "Alternative Diesel Fuel" means any fuel used in diesel engines that is not a reformulated diesel fuel as defined in sections of title 132281 and 2282 of title 13, of the California Code of Regulations, and does not require engine or fuel system modifications for the engine to operate, other than minor modifications (e.g., recalibration of the engine fuel control) that may enhance performance. Examples of alternative diesel fuels include, but are not limited to, biodiesel, Fischer-Trosch fuels, and emulsions of water in diesel fuel. Natural gas is not an alternative diesel fuel. An emission control strategy using a fuel additive will be treated as an alternative diesel fuel based strategy unless:(A) the additive is supplied to the engine fuel by an on-board dosing mechanism, or(B) the additive is directly mixed into the base fuel inside the fuel tank of the engine, or(C) the additive and base fuel are not mixed until engine fueling commences, and no more additive plus base fuel combination is mixed than required for a single fueling of a single engine or vehicle.(2) "ARB" means the California Air Resources Board.(3) "ARB Designees" are defined as those entities that ARB designates or contracts with to perform certain functions or provide specific services on its behalf under this regulation.(4) "Authorized Emergency Vehicle" is as defined in Vehicle Code section 165.(5) "Average Daily Drayage Truck Visits" is determined by dividing the total number of truck visits within a calendar month by the total number of intermodal rail yard open days for that same calendar month as represented by the following equation: Click here to view image

These engines have two separate fuel systems, which inject both fuels simultaneously into the engine combustion chamber. A dual-fuel engine is not an alternative-fuel engine.(22) "Emergency Event" means any situation arising from sudden and reasonably unforeseen natural disaster such as earthquake, flood, fire, or other acts of God, or other unforeseen events beyond the control of drayage truck owners and operators that threatens public health and safety or the reasonable flow of goods movement.(23) "Emergency Decree" means a determination by the Executive Officer that an emergency event has occurred that requires the immediate temporary operation of drayage trucks at ports and intermodal rail yard facilities.(24) "Executive Officer" is the Executive Officer of ARB or his/her authorized representative.(25) "Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR)" is as defined in Vehicle Code Section 350.(26) "Heavy-Duty" is a manufacturer's GVWR of greater than 26,000 pounds.(27) "Intermodal Rail Yard" is any rail facility owned or operated by a Class I railroad where cargo is transferred from drayage truck to train or vice-versa that:(A) is within 80 miles of a port; or,
