OOIDA concerned with new engine standards

Quote:
GRAIN VALLEY, Mo. -- The Owner-Operator Independent Drivers Association (OOIDA) is asking U.S. policymakers to rethink implementing engine emission standards at this time.
OOIDA’s concern about the upcoming 2010 U.S. EPA regulations regarding engine emissions is in response to new research predicting a dramatic drop in new truck and engine purchases which will ultimately lead to a break down in the trucking industry.
NERA Economic Consulting released the study detailing implications for the 2010 emission requirements. The study indicates truckers and fleet managers will ultimately decide not to buy new engines and trucks because of financial reasons and user uncertainties.

OOIDA calls for postponement of 2010 emissions standards

GRAIN VALLEY, Mo. -- The Owner-Operator Independent Drivers Association (OOIDA) says if the industry forges ahead with EPA2010 emissions standards, many truckers will be squeezed out of business as a result of higher purchase prices and unproven reliability.

The organization is appealing to US policymakers to postpone the 2010 emissions standards in light of a new study released by NERA Economic Consulting that suggested fleet managers will hesitate to buy new equipment with 2010 emissions controls.
