contaminant. This regulation implements provisions of the Diesel Risk Reduction 

Plan, adopted by the Air Resources Board in October, 2000, as mandated by the 

Health and Safety Code Sections 39650-39675, to reduce emissions of substances 

that have been determined to be toxic air contaminants. Specifically, this 

regulation will use a phased approach to reduce the diesel PM emissions from inuse transport refrigeration units (TRUs) and TRU generator (gen) set equipment 

used to power electrically driven refrigerated shipping containers and trailers that 

are operated in California. 

(b) Applicability. 

(1) Except as provided in subsection (c), this regulation applies to owners and 

operators of diesel-fueled TRUs and TRU gen sets (see definition of operator 

and owner in subsection (d) that operate in the state of California. This 

specifically includes: 

(A) Operators and owners of California-based TRUs and TRU gen sets that are 

installed on trucks, or trailers, shipping containers, or railcars; and 

(B) Operators and owners of non-California-based TRUs and TRU gen sets that 

are installed on trucks, trailers, shipping containers, or trailers. 

(2) This regulation applies to facilities located in California with 20 or more loading 

dock doors serving refrigerated areas where perishable goods are loaded or 

unloaded for distribution on trucks, trailers, shipping containers, or rail cars that 

are equipped with TRUs and TRU gen sets and that are owned, leased, or 

1 
contracted for by the facility, its parent company, affiliate, or subsidiary that are 

under facility control (see definition). 

(3) To the extent not already covered under subsections (b)(1) and (b)(2), above, 

· subsection (g) of this regulation shall apply to any person engaged in this State

sell or offer for sale TRUs and TRU gen sets to the California market. 

f4j(5) Severability. If any subsection, paragraph, subparagraph, sentence, 

clause, phrase, or portion of this regulations is, for any reason, held invalid, 

unconstitutional, or unenforceable by any court of competent jurisdiction, such 

portion shall be deemed as a separate, distinct, and independent provision, and 

such holding shall not affect the validity of the remaining portions of the regulation.

specific units to delay compliance with ULETRU in-use performance 

standards by up to three years, according to the rounding conventions 

and examples listed below. 

21 
a. Each year of early compliance with the LETRU in-use performance 

standards would be rewarded with 1 year delay in the ULETRU inuse performance standard. 

I. One full year early compliance qualifies for one full year delay in 

meeting ULETRU compliance. 

II. Two full years early compliance qualifies for two full years delay in 

meeting ULETRU compliance. 

Ill. Three full years early compliance qualifies for three full years 

delay in meeting ULETRU compliance. 

b. A partial year of early LETRU compliance would be rounded to the 

nearest full year for the delayed ULETRU requirements. 

I. Early LETRU compliance of 183 days or more in a calendar year 

would count toward a one year ULETRU delay. · 

II. Early LETRU compliance of 182 days or less in a calendar year 

would not count toward a ULETRU delay. 

3. Upon receipt of an application to delay ULETRU compliance, the 

Executive Officer shall determine if the application demonstrates early 

compliance with LETRU in-use performance standards in accordance 

with subsection (e)(1 )(F)1., and if the application is approved, shall delay 

the in-use ULETRU compliance date for specific TRUs and TRU gen 

sets operating in California in accordance with subparagraph (e)(1)(F)2. 

4. · Upon approval of the application, ARB shall issue a certificate and ARB 

identification number in accordance with subsection (e)(1)(E)1.e. which
