1 0 WRAP Member Offroad Retrofit Program Workshop January 27-28, 2005 San Diego, CA

2 1 Emissions Advantage, LLC Established for the specific purpose of providing program and technical assistance to those parties involved in developing and implementing diesel emission reduction programs. Services focus on development of programs designed to fit specific needs, and complete management of program implementation. EA’s three principals, Jerry Summers, Bruce Bertelsen, and Tom Timbario, collectively have over 85 years of experience in the vehicle emission control field, and have extensive experience with the development and implementation of diesel engine emission reduction and retrofit programs Uniquely qualified to help design and implement diesel emission reduction retrofit programs. Hands-on experience in the development and application of retrofit emission control technology, and implementation and operational support for low emission technologies in a wide range of fleet applications throughout the U.S. and Canada.

3 2 Emissions Advantage, LLC Recent Project Examples American Lung Association – Design and implementation of diesel retrofit program for over 800 school buses in metro St. Louis area. Western Regional Air Partnership – Analysis of diesel retrofit technologies, costs, emission reduction potential, and program implementation strategies for offroad equipment in the WRAP region. Western Regional Air Partnership – Provide program development and coordination assistance for offroad diesel retrofit programs in the WRAP region. U.S. EPA – Assessment of worldwide diesel retrofit technologies and programs. U.S. EPA – Information collection and data base development for U.S. diesel retrofit programs.

8 7 WRAP Member Survey Summary of Findings: Current Projects Partnering Industry Sectors Public Awareness and Outreach Coordination with other Agencies and Sponsors

9 8 WRAP Member Survey Summary of Findings: Current Needs Future Needs

10 9 WRAP Retrofit Guidance Document PURPOSE: Provide guidance to WRAP members on the major elements needed to develop a well-structured retrofit program. Introduce basic description of retrofit technologies and their fits with specific applications. Provide summaries of current experience with retrofit technologies. Currently envision two volumes: I – Elements of Structuring a Retrofit Program II – Retrofit Technologies, Applications and Experience Provide updates to topical content, as appropriate and as meaningful information becomes available.

11 10 WRAP Retrofit Guidance Document Volume I Major Topics (Refer to handout in Workshop folder) Introduction Retrofit Program Development Process Identifying and Acquiring Funding Retrofit Program Partners and Constituents Technology Selection and Product Acquisition Retrofit Program Examples and Lessons From Their Experience

12 11 WRAP Retrofit Guidance Document Volume II Major Topics (Refer to handout in Workshop folder) Introduction Diesel Particulate Filter Diesel Oxidation Catalyst Lean NOx Catalyst Low Pressure EGR Selective Catalyst Reduction Crankcase Emission Control Diesel Fuel Emulsions Diesel Fuel Additives Biodiesel ULSD

13 12 WRAP Retrofit Guidance Document Appendices (Refer to handout in Workshop folder) WRAP offroad retrofit program member contacts Retrofit program contacts in the WRAP region Funding resources Industry and retrofit technology product resources Other retrofit resource organizations Guidance Document updates
