THIS PROJECT WILL REPLACE 67 DIESEL TRUCKS WITH NEW DIESEL TRUCKS MEETING CURRENT U.S. EPA EMISSIONS STANDARDS AS A PHASE I/PHASE II PROJECT. ELIGIBLE PROJECT ACTIVITIES TO BE ACCOMPLISHED IN EACH PHASE INCLUDE: PHASE I: TRUCK REPLACEMENTS (DIESEL TO DIESEL): SEVENTEEN (17) CLASS 8 LONG HAUL COMBINATION TRUCKS, ONE (1) CLASS 8 SHORT HAUL COMBINATION TRUCK, NINE (9) CLASS 8 LONG HAUL SINGLE UNIT TRUCKS, ONE (1) CLASS 8 SHORT HAUL SINGLE UNIT TRUCK, FOUR (4) CLASS 8 DUMPER/TENDERS, AND TWO (2) CLASS 6/7 SHORT HAUL SINGLE UNIT TRUCKS. PHASE II: TRUCK REPLACEMENTS (DIESEL TO DIESEL): FOURTEEN (14) CLASS 8 LONG HAUL COMBINATION TRUCKS, ELEVEN (11) CLASS 8 LONG HAUL SINGLE UNIT TRUCKS, SIX (6) CLASS 8 DUMPER/TENDERS, AND TWO (2) CLASS 6/7 SHORT HAUL SINGLE UNIT TRUCKS. REMOVING OLD ENGINES/VEHICLES FROM OPERATION REDUCES EXPOSURE TO TOXIC DIESEL EMISSIONS, WHICH CAN BE ESPECIALLY HARMFUL TO VULNERABLE POPULATIONS SUCH AS ELDERLY PERSONS AND CHILDREN, WHICH IS A SERIOUS CONCERN IN DETROIT AND THE SURROUNDING AREAS GIVEN HIGH RATES OF ASTHMA AND OTHER RESPIRATORY ILLNESS, CARDIOVASCULAR DISEASE, AND CANCER - ALL OF WHICH ARE LINKED WITH EXPOSURE TO DIESEL EMISSIONS. THIS PROJECT DELIVERS IMPACT IN THE DETROIT/TOLEDO/WINDSOR TRADE CORRIDOR AND WITHIN SOUTHEAST MICHIGAN. THIS PROJECT WILL BENEFIT THE COMMUNITY BY ELIMINATING DIESEL POLLUTION THAT WOULD OTHERWISE BE EMITTED WITHOUT THIS PROJECT.
