The Trucking Sector Workgroup meets every other month by teleconference and at least once a year in-person to share information on current and potential emissions reduction projects along the West Coast. The workgroup focuses on topics that include reducing emissions along major transportation corridors (such as Interstates) and near population centers, exploring innovative financing mechanisms, leveraging federal funds for projects, sharing lessons learned regarding technologies and practices, and exploring the use of alternative fuels to reduce emissions. Members of this workgroup are integral to its success in implementing innovative trucking projects. If you would like more information or would like to join the Trucking Sector Workgroup, please contact Trina Martynowicz.
