California Air Resources Board

$500 in Fines Paid by San Luis Obispo City Transit

In February 2009, San Luis Obispo City Transit agreed to pay $500 in penalties; $375 to the California Air Pollution Fund, $62.50 to the Peralta Community College District, and $62.50 to the California Pollution Control Financing Authority for violating air quality regulations.  An investigation by the ARB showed that San Luis Obispo City Transit failed to meet the Fleet Rule for Transit Agencies-Transit Fleet Vehicle Requirements (TFV), Title 13 CCR Section 2023.2 (a) (1) for NOx emissions.  ARB documented violations as they related to the TFV.  To settle the case, San Luis Obispo City Transit agreed to the $500 penalty and to comply with the TFV and other ARB programs.
