Diesel emissions pose a significant health problem• Serious health impacts

– exacerbates asthma, respiratory & cardiac illness

• Possible human carcinogen– over 70% of the cancer risk from

all air toxics• Degrades air quality

– Particulate Matter– Ozone

• Contributes to climate change

3

About 156 million people live in areas that do not meet one of the health-based national ambient air

quality standards.

Where is the program headed?

What is the solution?

Comprehensive EPA program to address diesel emissions across industry sectors

regulatory and innovative programs

EPA Regulations under Clean Air Act On-highway Trucks Nonroad Equipment Locomotive and Marine Vessels Ocean-Going Vessels

Diesel Emission Reduction Program Cost-effective, Verified Technologies Funding, Recognition, Incentives

Mobile Source Regulations Benefits

• Systems approach– Ultra-low Sulfur Diesel (ULSD) enables clean technologies.

• Very large environmental and public health benefits. • Current regulations: by 2030,

– PM reduced by ~300,000 tons per year– NOx by ~70 million tons per year

• Annual benefits are expected to exceed $186 billion versus costs of approximately $6.7 billion, or a ratio of 13 to 1.

• Responsive to needs of states to meet NAAQS.8/8/12 U.S. Environmental Protection Agency 9

but….What can be done about the 11 million existing engines:

the “legacy fleet” ?

Diesel Emissions Reduction Act (DERA) Funding


Pre-DERA

• $39.3 M awarded• Targeted specific

sectors

DERA FY08 –FY11

• Over $500 million awarded

• 450+ grantees• Broad spectrum

approach

DERA FY12 and Beyond

• Pres. Obama reauthorized DERA on 1.4.11

• Up to $100 M each year through 2016

National ProgramAwarded ~$290M in grants,

including funds to tribal nations, dedicated to deploying verified and

certified technologies

Emerging Technology ProgramAwarded ~$30M to advance

cutting-edge emissions control technologies

SmartWay FinanceAwarded ~$45M to establish innovative finance models to

provide funding to fleets

State ProgramAwarded ~$140M to all 50 states (plus DC and island territories) for

diesel emission reduction sub-grants and loan programs

DERA Funding

Since 2008

U.S. Environmental Protection Agency 148/8/12

U.S. Environmental Protection Agency 15

• DERA grants provide immediate health and environmental benefits. Over their lifetime, projects will provide an estimated $8.2 billion in health benefits, and reduced an estimated 203,000 tons of NOXand 8,300 tons of PM.

Delivers Impact

• DERA grants are cost-effective. Each federal dollar invested into clean diesel projects generates $10 to $20 in benefits, depending on the vehicle and technology.

Generates Economic Activity

• There is a tremendous amount of public interest in DERA funded projects. EPA has received up to seven times more applications than it can fund.

Answers Popular Demand

• DERA grants are solving local problems with locally conceived solutions—all DERA grant recipients tailor their projects to their specific community’s needs.

Meets Local Needs

• Many DERA projects are making a remarkable health and environmental impact in socially vulnerable areas.

SUMMARY• National Clean Diesel Campaign helps us meet our

health-based air quality goals through regulatory and voluntary programs

• It is a great investment: $13 benefit for every $1 spent• Regional and local collaboratives combined with

grants are building capacity and demonstrating the success of a wide range of diesel reduction strategies throughout the country

• DERA reauthorization affirms program success• Federal inter-agency support of integrated supply

chain management provides opportunities to leverage resources to promote efficiencies
