The Goods Movement Emission Reduction Program (GMERP) is an incentive program sponsored by a one billion dollar state bond measure passed by voters in 2006.
The program partners the Air Resources Board (ARB) and the Sacramento Metropolitan Air Quality Management District (AQMD) to offer assistance to owners and operators of on-road heavy duty vehicles, including those servicing ports and rail yards, marine vessels, and locomotives with the purchase of new equipment and technologies.
The goal of the measure is to improve public health by reducing pollution associated with diesel emissions from goods movement throughout the state of California.
