this solution gives all options available. Certainly the Idle Air technology is still very valid. It is very beneficial. And trucks that travel routes where Idle Air technology is available, they certainly can avail themselves of that. But the technology that I am promoting is portable. It can be installed on any truck in the Nation. So it makes the benefits of the Idle Air technology available nationwide. And so by adding this exemption, every truck has the opportunity to enjoy the reduced idling benefits even if the Idle Air technology is not available in their region.
