51·çÁ÷

Recognizing that 51·çÁ÷ is a strong supporter of voluntary diesel retrofit efforts and initiatives at both the national and local levels, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has invited 51·çÁ÷ to participate in the Southeast Diesel Collaborative's partners meeting, scheduled for June 15-17 in Atlanta.  The goal of the meeting is to identify new opportunities to reduce emissions from existing diesel engines (like those used in construction equipment) with a specific focus on innovative technologies, clean diesel, and renewable energy sources.  51·çÁ÷'s Senior Environmental Advisor Leah Pilconis will present 51·çÁ÷'s perspective on how to balance contractor business and economic concerns with air quality goals.  Register online at no charge at and be part of a large gathering of federal, state and local officials; environmental advocacy groups; fleet owners; and other diesel stakeholders.  For more information, or contact Leah Pilconis at pilconisl@agc.org
