Anti-Idling Resolution

By concerned representatives of the transportation industry in Cumberland County

Recognizing the important advantages of eliminating unnecessary diesel engine idling, we agree to promote better air quality by doing the following:


Administer anti-idling training to drivers and owner operators in our fleets


Post “no unauthorized idling” signs in highly visible areas


Inform drivers that enter the premises of the anti-idling policy by signage, verbal or written notice

Notify contracted pickup and delivery companies of our anti-idling policy (this would apply to warehouses, distribution centers)


Monitor and reinforce with the drivers and companies that don’t comply.
