  10. Stakeholder Meeting – Mobile Sources Mobile Source Committee reviewing reductions from Non-Road Idling • Many states prohibit unnecessary idling of highway diesel trucks; only a few prohibit it for non-road equipment • Existing non-road idling provisions in OTC have limits of 3 or 5 minutes; this range will be included in Model Rule • Model Rule posted on 9/2010; addressed comments posted revised version 3/11/2011
