This settlement was reached in December, 2016.
An investigation by the Air Resources Board (ARB) showed that Steve’s Oilfield Service, Inc. failed to meet the applicable performance standards for many trucks in their fleet. ARB documented violations as they related to the Periodic Smoke Inspection Program (PSIP) (13 CCR § 2190) and the Truck and Bus (TB) Regulation (13 CCR § 2025).
