Tuesday, May 11, 2004

The Bush administration announced new regulations that will reduce diesel emissions from tractors, bulldozers, locomotives, barges and other nonroad vehicles by more than 90 percent by 2010.

The Environmental Protection Agency rules require the reduction of nitrogen oxide and other pollutants that are linked to premature deaths, lung cancer, asthma and other serious respiratory illnesses.

Regulations to reduce diesel emissions in buses and trucks will take effect in 2007.
