This document is an introduction and resource handbook for understanding New York City Local Law 77. This law requires the use of ultra-low sulfur diesel fuel (ULSD) and best available technology (BAT) for reducing emissions form non-road equipment used on City construction projects. The handbook is addressed to all the participants in the projects for the New York City Department of Design and Construction (DDC), but especially the administrators and managers from DDC, construction managers and contractors. Its goal is to assist these professionals to understand and meet the requirements of NYC Local Law 77.
