Hiring, Owning, and Operating Diesel-powered Equipment

​​​​​​​​​

If you hire, own, or operate diesel- powered equipment, you are responsible for ensuring compliance with Metro Vancouver’s Non-Road Diesel Engine Emission Regulation Bylaw No. 1329, 2021.

Who is responsible for ensuring compliance?

  • Developers
  • General contractors
  • Municipalities
  • Land owner
  • Machine owner
  • Machine operator

When hiring contractors or equipment, it is recommended that you request the equipment engine Tier and confirmation of compliance with the Bylaw.

All Tier 0 and Tier 1 engines are required to display a unique Metro Vancouver registration number that can be entered into the Engine Lookup Tool on our website to determine if an engine is authorized to operate.​

Ways to check engine status

  1. Look up for the 4-digit registration number on the machine’s exterior
  2. Go to the Engine Lookup Tool or call 604-451-6655
  3. Enter 4-digit registration number to check machine status ​
