Financial Incentives for Purchasing Lower-Emission Heavy-Duty Engines

Since 1998, the Carl Moyer Program has provided funding to encourage the owners of diesel engines to go beyond regulatory requirements by retrofitting, repowering, or replacing their engines with newer and cleaner ones. While regulations continue to be the primary means to reduce air pollution emissions, the Carl Moyer program plays a complementary role to California’s regulatory program reducing NOx and PM by funding emission reductions that are surplus, i.e., early and/or in excess of what is required by regulation.

This is the twelfth year of the Carl Moyer Program and $20.0 million is available for FY 2009-10 for project awards within the South Coast AQMD’s 4-county jurisdiction.
