Unecessary idling wastes fuel, costs money, and pollutes the air! That is why heavy-duty fleets are encouraged to eliminate unnecessary idling. North Carolina's idle-reduction rule is aimed at reducing unnecessary idling by heavy-duty vehicles. More details about the idle rule, 15A NCAC 02D .1010, and exemptions can be found here.
Unnecessary Idling Complaint Form - To report potential violations (more than five consecutive minutes in one hour) of the heavy-duty idle-reduction rule in Mecklenburg County, see the Unnecessary Idling Complaint form below or call 311.
Materials have been developed to assist you in creating an idle reduction policy and encourage heavy-duty vehicle operators compliance with company anti idling policy.
