The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has awarded $50 million for clean diesel projects that will replace, retrofit or repower more than 8,000 school buses, trucks, locomotives, vessels and other diesel-powered machines.
From 2008 to 2010, EPA awarded nearly $470 million to more than 350 grantees under the diesel emissions reduction program (DERA). The grant-supported clean diesel projects have cleaned or replaced more than 50,000 vehicles and equipment nationwide.
