Clean Truck Check - Heavy-Duty Inspection and Maintenance (HD I/M) Program

The Clean Truck Check program aims to lower emissions from diesel vehicles that operate in California even further. This program, formerly known as the Heavy-Duty Inspection and Maintenance Program, targets heavy-duty vehicles like trucks buses, and motorhomes, ensuring they’re running clean and efficiently. One key difference is that the Clean Truck Check regulations apply to all trucks operating in the state, not just trucks based in California.

​

The Clean Truck Check regulation – also known as the Heavy Duty Inspection and Maintenance Program – applies to nearly all non-gasoline vehicles (including diesel vehicles) with a gross vehicle weight rating of 14,000 pounds or more which operate within California. Along with the reporting requirement, the regulation requires vehicle owners to pay a fee of $30 per reported vehicle. All vehicles covered by the regulation will require proof of compliance to continue legally operating within the state. Failure to comply could result in CARB placing a DMV registration hold on non-compliant vehicles.

CARB Upcoming Requirements 

Periodic Testing

•  A passing compliance test will be required to be submitted to CARB within the 90 days before a vehicle’s compliance deadline.

Database Reporting

• Vehicle owners (or designees) will be required to report in 2024 in the Clean Truck Check database when creating their accounts to comply with the Heavy-Duty Vehicle Inspection and Maintenance regulation.  Required information must be entered for vehicles in your fleet that are subject to Clean Truck Check with a $30 per vehicle compliance fee(s) paid for all vehicles in the fleet by January 31, 2024 as listed in the chart below​

​

Notice to Submit Test

• CARB has implemented Roadside Emissions Monitoring Devices (REMD). This could result in you receiving a Notice to Submit to Testing (NST) letter leading to enforcement violations, citations and fines. To get CARB compliant and remain CARB compliant, take the first step and order your Clean Truck Check (HD I/M) emissions compliance test, a “Smoke Check.”

 

DMV Registration

• The registration hold may also be due to not meeting the compliance requirements for the Clean Truck Check program.
