Greater than 8,500 (lbs) GVWR Powered by heavy-duty engine fueled by diesel or alternative fuel Owned or operated by a transit agency (includes contract fleet) Not an urban bus �Transit Fleet Vehicle� We are expanding the current regulation�s applicability to include smaller vehicles and those not meeting the definition of urban bus. �Transit Fleet Vehicle� is: A vehicle that would typically use a heavy-duty diesel engine, could be run on alternative fuel, and subject to this regulation. Vehicles powered by Gasoline are not intended to be regulated.
