State�s Off-Road Diesel Emissions Rule Puts Lives at Risk, Force Job Cuts, Says AGC
California�s plan to require construction contractors to install large and expensive emissions reduction kits on their off-road diesel equipment will put workers� lives at risk and force job cuts, a prominent union official and a member of the Associated General Contractors of America told federal officials in Washington, D.C. this week.
As a result, both asked the U.S. Environmental Protection Administration to deny or delay a decision to allow the state to proceed with its off-road rule.
