California Air Resources Board

Prohibits a public entity that owns diesel-powered locomotives and other on-track equipment from selling, donating, or otherwise transferring that equipment for continued use after it is decommissioned. A public entity is exempt from this prohibition if the public entity authorizes the transaction in a public hearing and either the equipment is Tier 2 or cleaner, produces emissions equivalent to Tier 2 or cleaner equipment, or the diesel engine is removed from the equipment.
