“This document explains requirements for the use of Electric Standby and Hybrid Electric systems
(together referred to as E/S) as an option for compliance with California’s TRU regulations. A
TRU’s compliance can be maintained beyond the seven year maximum if an E/S system is
integrated into the equipment and used within the guidelines for an Alternative Technology. Also
provided are specifications for businesses interested in providing electronic-tracking systems to
affected TRU owners. These requirements were added in the 2011 Amendments, effective
October 15, 2012″
