- Abstract
- This is the a summary of findings and an action plan relating to the results of a study mandated by the Diesel Retrofit Law (P.L. 2005, c.219). This law was intended to reduce fine particle emissions from diesel mobile sources in New Jersey. The law required the NJDEP to conduct a study to (1) evaluate the relative contribution of emissions from both the crankcase and the tailpipe to in-cabin levels of fine particles in school buses; and (2) evaluate the feasibility of requiring, and the environmental and health benefits of, the reduction of fine particle levels from school bus tailpipe emissions through the use of additional retrofit devices.
