"The California Air Resources Board (CARB) has adopted the In-Use Locomotive Regulation—a new rule aimed at reducing emissions from all switch, passenger, industrial and freight line haul locomotives when they operate within the state.
Under the In-Use Locomotive Regulation, operators will now be required to pay into a spending account, with the amount determined by the emissions they create while operating in California. Companies will be able to use the funds to purchase, lease, or rent Tier 4 or cleaner locomotives, or for the remanufacture or repower to Tier 4 or cleaner locomotive(s). Companies can also use the funds at anytime to to purchase, lease, or rent zero emissions (ZE) locomotive(s), ZE capable locomotive(s), ZE rail equipment, or to repower to ZE locomotive(s) or ZE capable locomotive(s)."
