    The California Air Resources Board (CARB) training course #507, "Transport Refrigeration Units," is now available as a video.

    Approximately three hours long, this course video deals with the board’s Airborne Toxic Control Measure (ATCM) for In-Use Diesel-Fueled Transport Refrigeration Units (TRUs).

    The video, for TRU facilities and TRU owner-operators who are affected by the measure, shows what they need to do to comply, and by what date must they be in compliance.

    To view or download the recording and course materials, go to the TRU website at www.arb.ca.gov/diesel/tru.htm. Scroll down to the Training and Compliance Assistance section and click on the link for the instructions to view and download the recording for the training course.
