PURPOSE OF CIRCULAR

To advise that an amendment to the Motor Vehicle Act Regulations will come into effect on

October 1, 2010. This will require that heavy duty diesel vehicles of the model years 1989-1993

be retrofitted with emissions reduction devices. This requirement will apply to vehicles with

licensed gross vehicles weights of more than 8,200 kg that are required to be inspected under

the Commercial Vehicle Inspection Program (CVIP). The following vehicle classes will be

exempt from the requirement:

 Buses

 X-plated vehicles

 Emergency vehicles

 Farm vehicles with LGVW under 17,300 kg

Acceptable emissions reduction devices reduce particulate matter (PM) emissions by at least

20% and are verified by the following agencies:

 US Environmental Protection Agency: http://www.epa.gov/otaq/retrofit/verif-list.htm

 California Air Resource Board: http://www.arb.ca.gov/diesel/verdev/vt/cvt.htm

The diesel retrofit will be an additional inspection item included in the Commercial Vehicle

Inspection Program. Impacted vehicles will not pass their required periodic vehicle inspection

without a retrofit. CVSE roadside enforcement will also be monitoring compliance of this

requirement.

BACKGROUND

The diesel retrofit requirement was originally announced by the Minister of Environment in June

2007 as part of the Air Action Plan. The intent of the initiative is to reduce harmful particulate

matter emissions from heavy emitting diesel vehicles by at least 20%. Particulate matter is a

significant air quality and public health concern and is linked to cardiovascular and respiratory

hospitalizations, respiratory diseases, chronic obstructive lung disease, chronic bronchitis,

pneumonia, heart disease and lung cancer.

Vehicle owners will be responsible for the cost of the retrofit estimated to be between $1,200

and $2,500 depending on vehicle type.

Now That's just plain communism! If BC is thinking of it when will the rest of the provinces? There must be money in it for someone in there side, or else they wouldn't be doing it. The government doesn't give a dam about environmental issues unless they can make a buck off of us. Just like emissions tests they are just a scam. How the heck do you put a dpf on a mechanical engine? It sounds like just a scam to get old stuff off the road. We're getting more and more like Europe all the time, over there a 3yr old truck is considered old. How do you pay for a new unit in 3yrs and just throw it away with trucking rates the way they are today? We need to have a rebellion against our communist government. Maybe send them to europe to stay if they think things are better the way it's done over there.

There are several retrofit DPF's for trucks out there. http://cumminsemissionsolutions.com/retrofit.html for one, Mack even endorses one on their website, Huss Retrofit is recommened by Mack but they cant even make their website stay up! http://www.motortrend.com/features/newswire/41570/index.html. I think $1500 to 2500 wont touch a total install. FJH, have you went to the Mack SCR school yet? We had guys there this week in Chicago and next week in Atlanta. I'am setting out on this SCR stuff as my brain is full!
