Abstract from the original letter:
“One of the key problems in Russian cities is clean air. In response to this problem, this conference addresses such vital issues as the reduction of diesel vehicle emissions in Russia and new opportunities arising from the adoption of Euro IV diesel emissions legislation. The provision of the Euro IV legislation and best available technologies are extremely timely and relevant.
The Moscow Government has a long history of addressing and dealing with the issue of clean air and has taken many steps to improve the situation, in particular the Moscow legislation to ban the entry of heavy trucks with engines that do not meet environmental requirements of Euro II into the city center. Over the next five years, all city-owned trucks will be transferred to the standard Euro IV."
