GENERAL CONDITIONS: ARTICLE 39 DIESEL VEHICLE EMISSIONS CONTROL GENERAL CONDITIONS: ARTICLE 39 DIESEL VEHICLE EMISSIONS CONTROL Connecticut's Diesel Reduction Initiatives Reducing diesel emissions is a DEP priority and they continue to move forward with a multi-faceted reduction strategy that includes mobile and stationary source applications because: Diesel exhaust is a significant contributor to air pollution and has been classified as a probable human carcinogen by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). Diesel engines emit high levels of nitrogen oxides (NOx) and particulate matter (PM), and in addition, a complex mixture of gases many of which are known or suspected cancer causing agents. Diesel exhaust exacerbates asthma and causes inflammation of the airways. Diesel exhaust is an important contributor to airborne concentrations of fine particle pollution, especially in urban areas.
