THERE IS STILL CARL MOYER PROGRAM FUNDING AVAILABLE. Carl Moyer Memorial Air Quality Standards Attainment Program provides incentive grants for cleaner-than-required engines, equipment and other sources of pollution providing early or extra emission reductions. Eligible projects include cleaner on-road, off-road and stationary agricultural pump engines. The program achieves near-term reductions in emissions of oxides of nitrogen (NOx), particulate matter (PM), and reactive organic gas (ROG) which are necessary for California to meet its clean air commitments under the State Implementation Plan. NOx and ROG combine in the presence of sunlight to form ozone (smog), while PM, a component of diesel exhaust, has been identified as a toxic air contaminant by the Air Resources Board. Additional information can be found at http://www.arb.ca.gov/msprog/moyer/moyer.htm The NSAQMD is seeking local public or private agency fleets in Nevada, Sierra and Plumas Counties interested in: - Purchasing new original equipment manufactured (OEM) low-emission or zero emission models that have substantially lower emissions than otherwise required (on-road only).
- Replacing older engines with newer engines with substantially lower emissions (off-road only).
- Retrofitting existing engines — Incorporation of a technology or process, which results in lower emissions from an existing engine.
On-road vehicles with a gross vehicle weight rating of greater than 14,000 pounds and a fleet size of 3 or less may qualify for funding. Off-road self-propelled vehicles with an engine rated at 50 horsepower or greater and considered a “small fleet” may qualify for funding. Agricultural pumping applications and agricultural off-road self-propelled vehicles with an engine rated at 50 horsepower or greater may also qualify for funding. The widespread use of lower emission technologies can provide significant improvements to air quality; therefore, the NSAQMD is making available funding ($$$) to assist local operators to purchase such technologies. This program requires that purchasers of low-emission technologies apply for incentive approval prior to low-emission technology purchase. For a complete application packet, click here (.pdf).
