New California Air Resources Board (CARB) rules affect privately-owned diesel trucks and are phased in annually.

Trucks over 26,000 lbs. G.V.W.R.

All diesel trucks 2000-2004 model year engines must be retrofitted with CARB-verified filters by January 1, 2013. (No Reporting Required).

Small fleets (1-3 trucks / 14,000 lbs. G.V.W.R.+) can call and report to delay compliance until 2014.
