The California Air Resources Board has a list of   regulations for diesel vehicles and equipment powered by diesel that will be implemented over the next 10 years, but diesel owners say it’s nearly imposible to determine which regulations apply to them and what   they will have to do to come into compliance.  Northern Sierra air Quality Management District Executive Director Gretchen Bennitt says due to requests from the public, they have asked a representative from CARB to come to Nevada County to put on  a training course.
