(14) other programs the commission may develop that support congestion mitigation to reduce mobile source ozone precursor emissions;
(15) the seaport and rail yard areas emissions reduction program established under Subchapter D-1;
(16) conducting research and other activities associated with making any necessary demonstrations to the United States Environmental Protection Agency to account for the impact of foreign emissions or an exceptional event;

Under this subsection, the commission may place a priority on programs that address the following goals:
(1) reduction of emissions of oxides of nitrogen or particulate matter from heavy-duty on-road vehicles and non-road equipment, including drayage vehicles, locomotives, and marine vessels, at seaport facilities or servicing seaport facilities in nonattainment areas; and
(2) reduction of emissions from the operation of drilling, production, completions, and related heavy-duty on-road vehicles or non-road equipment in oil and gas production fields where the commission determines that the programs can help prevent that area or an adjacent area from being in violation of national ambient air quality standards.
(c) Repealed by Acts 2013, 83rd Leg., R.S., Ch. 1230, Sec. 25(1), eff. June 14, 2013.
