Extension announced for truckers meeting new emissions standards Oakland Mayor Ron Dellums joined officials from state and local agencies and various trucking and community organizations Monday morning to announce an extension on a deadline for truckers serving the Port of Oakland to comply with tough new emissions standards. The extension period will help avert a planned work stoppage by the truck drivers, who are required to retrofit or replace trucks that do not meet the new standards.
Oakland Mayor Ron Dellums speaks at City Hall on Monday, along with Cynthia Marvin, assistant division chief of the California Air Resources Board (left), and Jack Broadbent, executive officer of the Bay Area Quality Management District (right). The extension period, along with $11 million allocated from the California Air Resources Board last week, is designed to help truckers adhere to the new standards, which went into effect Friday. |
