How to Meet California Clean Truck Requirements 

Navigating the California Air Resources Board (CARB) "Clean Truck Program"

California’s “Clean Truck Program” Affects Most Truckers Operating There

California Air Resource Board (CARB) has created new clean truck requirements that affect any carrier hauling freight in the state, whether they are based there or not. With these new requirements, ICSA knows that you may have many questions, such as:

    • How will this impact annual truck registration in California?
    • What changes will there be to the roadside truck pollution screening checks?
    • How often will trucks need to be tested for pollutants?
    • Are there any exceptions to CARB's registration and testing policy?
    • Will the clean truck requirements impact shippers, brokers, or receivers?
    • When will the new CARB requirements be effective?

This ICSA whitepaper explores all of these questions and more. While there has been a delay in some of these requirements going into effect, this information is valuable for carriers to be prepared when the time comes.


WHAT'S INSIDE?

    • Notice to Submit to Testing (NST)

    • Roadside Truck Pollution Screening

    • Breakdown of the U.S. EPA Waiver

    • Assigned Testing Month for Non-CA Vehicles

Distinguish your business by staying informed

Regardless of the delay in some requirements, whether or not a truck is registered in California, any carrier that hauls freight within or into the state must comply with the
California Air Resources Board’s (CARB’s) new “clean truck” requirements.
