Comment | It is very concerning that ARB regulations may have been made and based on reports by false science or out right liars. I do not own any potable diesel engines. But bring to question that all these regulations for are money generating or political bias reasons. Rather then based on true facts and pollution reduction. I purpose that no regulations can bemade that will add any cost burden to any person or company with current engines. Regulations can only apply to future engines made, purchased or imported after 2010. Thank You. Industry News Credential Flap To Delay CARB Diesel Regs? December 4, 2009 Assorted reports from California say that a member of the state’s Air Resources Board is calling for a suspension of new diesel emissions rules for trucks and buses because of falsified credentials of a researcher that collected information for the diesel standard. Reportedly, the researcher, Hien Tran, compiled research on health effects of diesel particulate matter, data regulators considered when adopting the clean air standards a year ago. Now information has surfaced that Tran falsified his credentials, claiming to have a doctorate from the University of California, Berkeley, but later admitting his degree was from Thornhill University, an online, unaccredited institution. He was demoted and suspended for 60 days without pay. CARB member John Telles is calling for the rules to be set aside until the report is reviewed by independent researchers. View Industry News |
