Diesel Emissions-Economic Recovery Grant
- With these funds, the Division of Air Quality has set up two programs. The first will award a subgrant to one organization to administer a rebate program for Auxillary Power Unit or Heavy-Duty Diesel replacements for long haul trucks. The bulk of the grant, however, will be used to solicit and select worthy "shovel ready" projects to reduce mobile emissions from diesel engines. This program will be called the NC Diesel Emissions-Economic Recovery (DEER) Grant. We have approximately $1.1 Million available in NC DEER Grant funds.
