Recommendation
By Minute Motion:
1. Authorize staff to retrofit three diesel fuel powered vehicles for
compliance with California Air Resources Board (CARB), On Road
Diesel Vehicles, Diesel Emissions Regulations; and
Funds are available in General Funds to Account Number 110-4331-413-3340, Auto
Fleet Repair and Maintenance.
Background
The Maintenance Services Division has three diesel fuel powered vehicles in the fleet
inventory. It has been determined through CARB that these three vehicles need to be
retrofitted with diesel particular filters in order to meet CARB's rule with the On Road
Diesel Vehicles, Diesel Emission Regulations.
It is imperative that these three diesel vehicles are retrofitted as required by CARB in
order to keep them in operation. Otherwise, they will be put out of commission by
August 31, 2010.
Staff posted a notice inviting bids to retrofit the three vehicles. Only one response was

received from Alliance Compliance Testing in the amount of $41,923.54.
Fiscal Analysis
If these vehicles are not retrofitted they will be put out of service thereby limiting
maintenance staff's ability to work on specific projects that require the use of these
vehicles. New replacement alternative fuel powered vehicles would be significantly
more expensive.
