American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009
Diesel Emissions Reduction
The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) provides $1.7 million for the Maine Clean Diesel Program to support diesel emission reduction activities. The ARRA funds will specifically retrofit transit buses and refuse trucks, as well as repower and retrofit port cargo handling equipment. The funding will also provide shore power to reduce emissions on the water front at Fore River dock. In addition, this funding will assist the efforts of the Maine Clean School Bus Program and will allow Maine DEP to establish the first statewide Clean Marine Engine Program in the region which will replace dirty marine engines. Projects must be completed by September 2010.
