Truck Replacement Program

About the Truck Replacement Program

Who Is Eligible

Independent owner operators or licensed motor carriers that own port drayage trucks with Engine Model Years(EMY) 1996-2003 that frequently serve the port, which is defined as at least 150 times in the last 12 months, and who agree to continue to service the port frequently with the replacement truck for five years. Replacement trucks must have engines with EMY 2011 or newer and certified to EPA emission standards. The old truck must be scrapped.

How Does the Program Work?

Applicants may only apply for grant funding for a maximum of two replacement trucks. The Truck Replacement Program is funded by federal Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality Improvement (CMAQ) Program and Diesel Emission Reduction Program (DERA). It covers up to 50 percent of the cost of a replacement truck or a maximum of $25,000, whichever is less. Click here for examples of how to identify Engine Model Year. The application process may take from 45 to 60 days before one can receive their new truck. Applicants may only apply for grant funding for a maximum of two replacement trucks.

Benefits

Qualified applicants receive multiple benefits by participating in the TRP. These benefits include:

• Newer Cleaner Vehicle
  • Newer trucks are often equipped with cleaner, lower emitting engines.
  • Newer trucks are more fuel efficient and have less maintenance.

The initial truck replacement program was open to new applications from 2010 to 2013. As a result of this program, the Port Authority succeeded in disbursing all of the federal grant money to replace a total of 429 old, dirty trucks, which were scrapped and replaced with newer, cleaner trucks.
