San Diego-Tijuana Diesel Emissions Reduction Project
Location: California: San Diego-Tijuana Border Region
The EPA is providing a $223,918 grant to the
San Diego County Air Pollution Control District to evaluate
the costs and effectiveness of emission control retrofit technologies
on Mexican heavy-duty diesel vehicles operating in the San Diego
County-Tijuana border region. Approximately 50 Mexico-domiciled
heavy-duty diesel trucks operating in the border region will
be retrofitted with diesel oxidation catalysts and crankcase
filtration system to demonstrate their viability under Mexican
operating conditions.
