ATRI UPDATES ONLINE IDLING REGULATIONS COMPENDIUM
The American Transportation Research Institute (ATRI) has updated the listing of state and local idling regulations found on its website, www.atri-online.org. Thursday, January 21, 2010 The American Transportation Research Institute (ATRI) has updated the listing of state and local idling regulations found on its website, www.atri-online.org. The updated listing is provided in two forms, a cab card which can be downloaded and carried in the glove box of a truck and the online compendium which provides links to individual regulations. Recent updates include the enactment of new limits in Chicago, Illinois and the Ohio cities of Cleveland and Maple Heights. Changes to idling regulations in Illinois, New Jersey and South Euclid, Ohio are also noted. The specific updates include: - A new 3-minute limit, with exemptions, has been enacted in Chicago, Illinois. - New 5-minute limits, with exemptions, have been enacted in the cities of Cleveland and Maple Heights, Ohio. - A change to the Illinois state limit increases the initial fine to $90 and adds an exemption for the use of idle reduction technologies. - A change to the New Jersey state limit is scheduled to take effect on May 1, 2010 which will restrict the current sleeper berth exemption to only those sleeper berths which have 2007 or newer diesel engines or diesel particulate filters. Note, NJMTA is pushing to continue the exemption with the newly elected administration. (The Pennsylvania state limit is scheduled to eliminate its current sleeper berth exemption on May 1, 2010 as well.) - Changes to the South Euclid, Ohio limit have been added. ATRI continues to monitor the development of idling regulations across the country and maintains the compendium and cab card as a free service to help trucking companies and truck drivers comply with the increasing number of state and local idling regulations. ATRI is the trucking industry’s 501(c)(3) not-for-profit research organization. It is engaged in critical research relating to freight transportation’s essential role in maintaining a safe, secure and efficient transportation system. |
Message from the President- February 2011 I recently had the privilege of representing the NJMTA at a reception held at the Governor's residence Drumthwacket. We were invited due to the generosity of two of our members, Lacey's Express, Inc. and National Retail Systems, Inc. who responded to a request for tractor donations Message From President - January 2011 As I prepared to write my first article for the NJMTA membership as the acting President, my thoughts are focused on the recent tragedy that occurred in Arizona where a Congressman was seriously wounded and 6 others murdered at a political rally. I find myself asking just what is happening to our country.
