Owner-operators and fleets upgrading their trucks this year via truck/engine-replacement or retrofit have until September 1 to make their purchase if they may need to take advantage of an extension if manufacturer delivery or installation is delayed. “To qualify,” noted representatives from retrofit-diesel-particulate-filter clearinghouse and consultancy Ironman Parts, “purchase orders must be placed four months ahead of the compliance deadline (by August 31) to take into account delivery, installation, holidays, and year-end lead times.”
The delay extension includes purchases of engines and vehicles “originally equipped with a PM filter,” according to CARB, in addition to retrofit DPFs.
