U.S.Transportation Industry Idling: Issues, Impacts & Opportunities
Step 1: Idle Elimination Reduce Foreign Oil Dependency by 8%
8.0% of the national daily consumption is attributed to idling
US Dependency on foreign oil can be cut significantly by addressing idling

Step 2: Idle Elimination Tax Money
More than $224 Million per year goes out the tail pipe of our school buses
By eliminating idling, tax dollars currently spent on fuel can be used to
support schools, improve roads, create anti-idling programs…….
By adding and enforcing idling laws, states and municipalities could
generate significant levels of revenue by fining non-conforming trucks and
passenger cars

Kentucky could save $4.6 Million per year by adding a state idle elimination campaign for school buses
Step 3: Idle Elimination Reduction of Green House Gases (GHG)
The US could reduce harmful Green House Gases, such as CO2, by 34.5 Million Tons/Year via idle elimination
Idling makes up .6% of the US national CO2 output
The US is the world’s largest producer of GHG

Idling elimination will reduce ozone and fine particle exposure resulting in:
Fewer premature deaths
Fewer cases of chronic bronchitis
Fewer non-fatal heart attacks
Fewer hospital and emergency room visits
Fewer days workers are out sick due to respiratory symptoms
Fewer school absences
Idle elimination in Kentucky and other states would compliment and accelerate existing plans including:
SIP, Clear Skies and elimination of nonattainment status
Step 4: Idle Elimination Improved Public Health
A US idle elimination program would create a demand for more than 37 Million anti-idling devices
Conservatively, this initiative could create more than 18,000 new jobs related to engineering, designing and building anti-idling technologies
Additional jobs in other industries, such as the building segment, parts supply, raw materials, enforcement... would also result
Step 5: Idle Elimination New Job Creation – 18,000 New Jobs
Idle Elimination Address Job Creation at a National Level
In the US today there are more than 40 U.S. companies who supply and manufacture anti-idling technologies
The job creation component of idle elimination will have a positive effect at a national level

Global Anti-idling Initiatives That Work
Special Guest – Global Warming
Europe and CanadaNo idle and idle reduction programs
In Europe today idling is forbidden
Canada is moving more and more towards a no idling position
Between 2003 & 2005 Canada instated a Heavy Truck rebate program to stimulate use and sales of anti-idling devises
A truck or fleet received up to $350.00 - $1400.00 per truck for adding and using approved anti-idling devices
This program has resulted in significant reductions of fuel and GHG’s
In 2005 Toronto instated, and is enforcing, a 3 minute idling law

Opportunities: Additional Enforcement &Idling Regulations
Approximately 22 states in the US have some level of commercial or passenger vehicle anti-idling regulations
Little is being done to enforce these laws and many loop holes exist
Some US cities have established enforcement agencies to address idling and air quality, but these are far too few
