The department is holding a second workshop on rulemaking to reduce long-duration diesel engine idling. The department proposes to create new rule Chapter 62-285, F.A.C., Greenhouse Gas Emissions Reduction, and develop new Rule 62-285.420, F.A.C., Heavy-Duty Vehicle Idling Reduction, to accomplish this purpose. The effect of the rule would be to reduce emissions from long-duration diesel engine idling. The department will not be offering any rule proposals at the December 5th workshop. The purpose of this second workshop is to provide another opportunity for interested persons to provide comments and recommendations to the department as we continue this rulemaking process.
