EPA has adopted a comprehensive national program to reduce emissions from future nonroad diesel engines by integrating engine and fuel controls as a system to gain the greatest emission reductions. To meet these emission standards, engine manufacturers will produce new engines with advanced emission-control technologies similar to those already expected for highway trucks and buses. Exhaust emissions from these engines will decrease by more than 90 percent. Because the emission-control devices can be damaged by sulfur, we are also adopting a limit to decrease the allowable level of sulfur in nonroad diesel fuel by more than 99 percent.
These reductions in NOx and PM emissions from nonroad diesel engines will provide enormous public health benefits. EPA estimates that by 2030, controlling these emissions would annually prevent 12,000 premature deaths, 8,900 hospitalizations, and one million work days lost.

It takes 275 acre feet of water annually to maintain the Heritage at Westmoor golf course, but course superintendent Lance Johnson doesn't tap into precious drinking water supplies to get it nor is he striving for that perfect emerald hue. That's because the Heritage uses recycled water from the City of Westminster's reclaimed-water plant to irrigate only a portion of its 195 acres, the majority of which are left as native open space. For its efforts, the Heritage is considered one of the most environmentally friendly golf courses in Colorado.
