NON - INSTRUCTIONAL OPERATIONS <br />8172 <br />Page 1 of 2 <br />DISTRICT SCHOOL BUS IDLING <br />The Board is committed to transporting students on school buses in a safe manner. <br />Further, the Board recognizes that accumulated emissions from school buses can be <br />harmful to students, bus drivers, and others in the area of the idling buses. <br />Unnecessary bus idling emits pollutants, wastes fuel, and wastes financial resources. <br />Guidelines <br />1. When school buses arrive at loading and unloading areas to drop off or pick up <br />passengers, the school bus driver should turn off the bus as soon as possible to <br />eliminate idling time and reduce harmful emissions. <br />2. The school bus should not be restarted until it is ready to depart. <br />3. School buses should not idle (on or off of school grounds) for longer than fifteen <br />(15) minutes unless: <br />a. They are waiting in traffic; <br />b. They are loading or unloading students with special needs; <br />c. The driver is in the process of receiving or discharging passengers on a public <br />highway or public road; <br />d. There are maintenance or mechanical situations, inspections, or repair; or <br />e. There are extreme weather conditions and the purpose is to warm the interior of <br />the bus. <br />Adopted 11 -19 -2008 Reviewed Revise <br />d <br />Cross Reference: Bus Driver Responsibilities #8145 <br />Bus Driver Responsibilities Procedures #8145P <br />Operation of School Buses #8170 <br />Operation of School Buses Procedures #8170P <br />Student Bus Safety #8255 <br />Legal Reference: I.C. § 33 -1501 Transportation authorized <br />I.C. § 33 -1511 State board of education - powers and duties related to <br />transportation <br />Bonneville Joint School District No. 93 <br />
