WVU Exhaust Emissions Testing Initiative -- 1 & 2

West Virginia University (WVU) has established an emissions research program, which provides public transit agencies, engine and vehicle manufacturers, transit industry associations, government regulatory agencies and other transit industry constituents with information concerning the exhaust emissions of existing and new technology transit vehicles. There are four general task areas: (1) Provide Technical Assistance to Pennsylvania Transportation Institute to Establish an Emissions Testing Program; (2) Measure Emissions of New Transit Buses; (3) Develop Emissions Resources for Transit Agency Managers; and (4) Coordinate with the Constituents of the Bus Testing Program.
