REBATE GRANTS PROGRAM

The Texas Commission on Environmental Quality has awarded a grant contract, number 582-27-87634-RG, to Pick-N-Pull, Inc. as part of the Texas Emissions Reduction Plan Rebate Grants Program. Valued at 149,286.00 dollars, this agreement is set to expire on August 31, 2034. The program is designed to provide financial incentives for the repowering or replacement of older on-road heavy-duty diesel vehicles and specific non-road diesel equipment to effectively reduce NOx emissions within designated areas of Texas. The grant is governed by a comprehensive legal framework that defines allowable costs, activity life, and administrative requirements for emissions reduction projects. To ensure flexibility in achieving environmental goals, the program includes mechanisms such as the Good Cause Waiver for ownership and registration requirements, as well as an Equipment Type Exception Request process for cases where replacement technology differs in configuration or weight from the original equipment. The solicitation process for this program involved specific application windows and modifications to lease requirements for grant equipment to ensure proper project execution.
