Portable Power

YOUR PORTABLE POWER CHECKLIST

By way of background, portable equipment 50 horsepower and greater requires a permit from the local air district in which the unit is operating. To lessen the burden (and costs) of reporting in multiple air districts throughout the state, CARB established the Portable Equipment Registration Program (PERP), which enables fleet owners to acquire a statewide portable equipment permit for qualifying portable units. Note that this is a Voluntary Program, and, as such, may set rules and standards independent of local air district rules.
