Summary of Request:
The Carl Moyer Program is administered by the California Air Resources Board. The program creates incentives in the form of grants for public agencies and private companies that operate heavy-duty diesel engines in California. The District is requesting the total allocation of $245,569 from ARB for fiscal year 2016/2017. The required matching funds were approved by the Board on December 11, 2012. State Carl Moyer Program funds along with the District’s matching funds ($36,835) will be used to cover an incremental portion of the cost of purchasing new, replacing existing, or retrofitting existing diesel engines with cleaner on-road and off-road engines. Applications will be processed under the appropriate State Carl Moyer Program Guidelines and the Grant Program Guidelines Adopted by the Air Quality Management District Board in 2002 and revised May 15, 2007.
Alternative Action/Motion:
Not approve the District’s participation in the Carl Moyer Program and direct District staff to locate alternative sources for funding or alternative programs.
