The Department of Environmental Protection is now accepting applications for the Pennsylvania Clean Diesel Grant Program.  Applications are due June 10.  (formal notice)

The Department is seeking applications for projects that will replace, repower or retrofit fleet diesel-powered highway and nonroad vehicles.

Funding is available for public and private entities that operate diesel-powered fleets throughout this Commonwealth. These entities may include school districts, municipal authorities, political subdivisions, other State agencies, nonprofit entities, corporations, limited liability companies or partnerships incorporated or registered in this Commonwealth.

Projects must use technologies certified or verified by the EPA or the California Air Resources Board to lower diesel emissions. The technology may be a single technology or a combination of available technologies. The majority of the fleet's annual operation time must occur within this Commonwealth.

More information will be posted on DEP’s Diesel Retrofit Information webpage.
