Clean Truck Check Database Reporting Requirements
This Fact Sheet lists information that vehicle owners (or designees) will be required to report in 2023 in the Clean Truck Check database when creating their accounts to comply with the Heavy-Duty Vehicle Inspection and Maintenance regulation. CARB anticipates that the database will be open for fleet representatives to create accounts on October 1, 2023. Required information must be entered for vehicles in their fleet that are subject to Clean Truck Check and the $30 per vehicle compliance fee(s) paid for all vehicles in the fleet by December 31, 2023. Failure to do so by December 31, 2023, may result in vehicles being cited for non-compliance and subject to penalties, and/or having their DMV vehicle registrations blocked. In addition, freight contractors, brokers, and applicable freight facilities are required to ensure Clean Truck Check compliance with vehicles they do business with starting in 2024.
The reporting database is expected to include batch upload functions to streamline the vehicle reporting and compliance fee payment process. Additional training materials on how to use the database will also be provided to assist users in meeting their Clean Truck Check reporting requirements.

Upon attesting responsibility for the complete list of vehicles, an Affirmation of Fleet Wide Compliance will be provided within 72 hours, once the vehicle owner or designee has demonstrated that every vehicle in the fleet complies with the requirements of this regulation.
