Truck Improvement/Modernization Benefitting Emission Reductions (TIMBER)

TIMBER Grant Program

The Truck Improvement/Modernization Benefitting Emission Reductions (TIMBER) Program provides a streamlined voucher funding option to reduce emissions by replacing 2002 or older model diesel engine log trucks with 2010 or newer model diesel engine log trucks. When used to offset vehicle replacement costs, qualifying projects are eligible for up to $60,000.

More information about the TIMBER program can be found at California Air Resources Board’s TIMBER website.

Who is eligible?

Prior to applying, you must be registered in the TRUCRS database and have selected the Truck & Bus Regulation Log Truck Phase-In Option, NOx Exempt Area Option, or the Small Fleet Option (TRUCRS account must be updated for 2016 by January 31, 2016). Application packets may be downloaded from this website or request a copy from the District office.

Any individual, business, public agency, or non-profit organization that is located in, or that operates within, the boundaries of the State of California.  Note: Applicants are limited to a maximum of 10 TIMBER grants per fleet, per year.

If my project is selected, what next?

If your project meets the guidelines and has no outstanding violations (2011 Carl Moyer Program Guidelines, Chapter 4 section D.2), you and your selected dealership will be issued a Voucher. Funding is limited, and Vouchers will be issued on a first-come, first-served basis until the funds are expended.
