California Air Resources Board

$3,000 in Fines Paid by Marco Rentals, Inc.

In June 2009, the Marco Rentals, Inc. agreed to pay $3,000 in penalties; $2,250 to the California Air Pollution Fund, $375 to the Peralta Community College District, and $375 to the California Pollution Control Financing Authority for violating air quality regulations.  An investigation by the ARB showed that Marco Rentals, Inc. failed to properly self-inspect their diesel vehicles to assure the vehicles met state smoke emission standards.  ARB documented violations as they related to the Periodic Smoke Inspection Program (PSI).  To settle the case, Marco Rentals, Inc. agreed to the $3,000 penalty and to comply with the PSI and other ARB programs.
