URGENT: Tier 2 Registration Deadline – Metro Vancouver’s Bylaw 1329
Registration Deadlines for Metro Vancouver’s Non-Road Diesel Engine Emission Bylaw 1329
Metro Vancouver’s Non-Road Diesel Emission Regulation Bylaw 1329 was amended in October 2021, and upcoming deadlines may impact your non-road diesel engine (NRDE) fleet.
Deadline: Tier 2 engines – January 31, 2026
• After January 31, 2026, operation of Tier 2 NRDEs that have not been registered, with a minimum of 90 operating days purchased, will be prohibited in the Metro Vancouver region.
Compliance options
• Register your Tier 2 NRDEs and purchase a minimum 90-day operating period before the deadline
• Install an emission reduction measure to reduce the diesel particulate matter emission rate to meet the emission standard of a Tier 4 NRDE
• Register after the deadline and pay a 300% surcharge in addition to the standard operating period fee
What do you need to do?
• Register your NRDEs now and registration labels will be mailed to you
• Purchase operating periods for any applicable NRDEs when operating within Metro Vancouver
The same requirements will apply to Tier 3 NRDEs starting January 31, 2027.
