National Environment Protection (Diesel Vehicle Emissions) Measure

The National Environment Protection (Diesel Vehicle Emissions) Measure (also known as the Diesel NEPM) was made by the National Environment Protection Council on 29 June 2001. The goal of the measure is to reduce exhaust emissions from diesel vehicles by facilitating compliance with in-service emissions standards for diesel vehicles.

Comprehensive reports from jurisdictions on implementation of the Diesel NEPM are available in the Environment Protection and Heritage Council's NEPC Service Corporation Annual Reports.
