- California's Heavy Duty Inspection Program
The California Air Resources Board (ARB) is testing heavy-duty trucks and buses for excessive smoke and tampering. Any heavy-duty vehicle traveling in California, including vehicles registered in other states and foreign countries, may be tested. - Europa: The Inspection of In-Use Cars in Order to Attain Minimum Emissions of Pollutants and Optimum Energy Efficiency

- Particulate Traps for Heavy Duty Vehicles - Mayer, A.
The task was to investigate the technical aspects of retrofitting with highly efficient particulate traps all heavy duty vehicles (more than 3.5 tonnes total weight), i.e. all trucks, trailer trucks, city busses and coaches in Switzerland. Answers were sought for fundamental technical aspects, e.g. feasibility, operational behavior, installation possibilities and test procedures. Further, the investment and operating costs should be determined. The investigation was set in the context of similar projects worldwide and their results discussed. - California's Diesel Risk Reduction Program
- Pollution from Diesel Vehicles - Worldwide Survey on Retrofit Catalyst Technology - Walsh, Michael P.
The purpose of this study is to review and update the current state of the art and experience around the world in retrofitting existing diesel vehicles with catalytic aftertreatment technologies to reduce diesel particulate emissions. - Pollution from Diesel Vehicles - Worldwide Experiences with Aftertreatment Retrofit - Walsh, Michael P.
The purpose of this study is to review the current state of the art and experience around the world in retrofitting existing diesel vehicles with aftertreatment technologies to reduce diesel particulate emissions. - Heavy-Duty Diesel Emission Reduction Project Retrofit/Rebuild Component - US EPA
The purpose of this document is to expand the use of retrofit pollution control technologies in heavy-duty engines through the development of consistent guidelines for voluntary retrofit programs. - The Transition to Ultra-Low-Sulfur Diesel Fuel: Effects on Prices and Supply
Link not available - Sustainable Transport: New Insights From the IEAs Worldwide Transit Study - Fulton, Lew
Over the past year, the IEA has undertaken a study of transit systems in cities around the world. The primary focus has been on bus systems in developing countries, where dilapidated vehicles, old technologies, and rapidly increasing traffic congestion and sprawl are jeopardising the ability of the developing world s premier cities to achieve sustainability.

- Diesel Emission Control - Sulfur Effects (DECSE) Program - Final Report: Diesel Oxidation Catalysts and Lean-NOx Catalysts
The Diesel Emission Control - Sulfur Effects (DECSE) Program is a joint government/industry program which aims to determine the impact of diesel fuel sulfur levels on emission control systems whose use could lower emissions of nitrogen oxides (NOx) and particulate matter (PM) from on-highway trucks from the 2002-2004 model years.
