$17,625 in Fines Paid by Western Regional Delivery Services

In July 2009, Western Regional Delivery Services agreed to pay $17,625 in penalties; $13,219 to the California Air Pollution Fund, $2,203 to the Peralta Community College District, and $2,203 to the California Pollution Control Financing Authority for violating air quality regulations.  An investigation by the ARB showed that Western Regional Delivery Services failed to properly self-inspect their diesel trucks to assure the trucks met state smoke emission standards.  ARB documented violations as they related to the Periodic Smoke Inspection Program (PSI).  To settle the case, Western Regional Delivery Services agreed to the $17,625 penalty and to comply with the PSI and other ARB programs.
