Improvements for Heavy-Duty Engine
and Vehicle Test Procedures, and
Other Technical Amendments
Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Proposed rule.
AGENCY:
SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA) is proposing changes to
the test procedures for heavy-duty
engines and vehicles to improve
accuracy and reduce testing burden.
EPA is also proposing other regulatory
amendments concerning light-duty
vehicles, heavy-duty vehicles, highway
motorcycles, locomotives, marine
engines, other nonroad engines and
vehicles, stationary engines. These
would affect the certification procedures
for exhaust emission standards, and
related requirements. EPA is proposing
similar amendments for evaporative
emission standards for nonroad
equipment and portable fuel containers.
These amendments would increase
compliance flexibility, harmonize with
other requirements, add clarity, correct
errors, and streamline the regulations.
Given the nature of the proposed
changes, they would have neither
significant environmental impacts nor
significant economic impacts for any
sector.

Economy (CAFE) regulations.2
Additional amendments apply for
different manufacturers of various types
of nonroad and stationary engines,
vehicles, and equipment.
Regulated categories and entities
include the following:
pounds GVWR, as defined under EPA’s
CAA regulations,1 and passenger
automobiles (passenger cars), nonpassenger automobiles (light trucks),
and heavy-duty pickup trucks and vans
as defined under National Highway
Traffic Safety Administration’s
(NHTSA’s) Corporate Average Fuel

B. What action is the Agency taking?
This action proposes to amend the
regulations that implement our air
pollutant emission standards for
engines, vehicles and mobile
equipment. The proposed amendments,
which are generally technical
amendments that include corrections,
clarifications, and flexibilities. In other
words, this proposal comprises a
significant variety of small changes for
multiple types of engines and
equipment.
The majority of amendments being
proposed would modify existing test
procedures for heavy-duty highway
engines and vehicles. These test
procedure changes would improve
accuracy, and in some cases, reduce test
burden. They would apply for
measurement of criteria pollutants (such
as NOX), as well as greenhouse gas
pollutants (primarily CO2).
Other heavy-duty highway
amendments would update EPA
regulations to enhance implementation
of existing emission standards. For
example, some changes would reduce
the likelihood that manufacturers would
need to duplicate certification efforts to
comply with EPA, Canadian, and
Californian standards. Some
amendments would make it easier for
manufacturers to more fully account for
the emission benefits of advanced
emission control technology, which
could provide them the opportunity to
generate additional emission credits.
1 ‘‘Light-duty vehicle,’’ ‘‘light-duty truck,’’
‘‘medium-duty passenger vehicle,’’ and ‘‘heavyduty vehicle’’ are defined in 40 CFR 86.1803–01.
VerDate Sep<11>2014
22:43 May 11, 2020
Jkt 250001
These heavy-duty highway amendments
are described in Section II.
This notice also proposes other
amendments that are generally
administrative or technical in nature
and include amendments for nonroad
engines and vehicles. These
amendments are described in Section
III. Perhaps the most visible
administrative amendment would be the
elimination of hundreds of pages of
obsolete regulations, which is described
in Section III.B.
C. What are the incremental costs and
benefits of this action?
This action is limited in scope and is
not intended to include amendments
that would have significant economic or
environmental impacts. EPA has not
drafted a Regulatory Impact Analysis.
Heavy-Duty Highway Amendments
EPA is proposing numerous changes
to the test procedure regulations to
address manufacturers’ concerns and to
address other issues we have identified.
These proposed changes are described
below. The list includes numerous
editorial changes that simply correct
typographical/formatting errors or revise
the text to improve clarity. Although
these amendments are being proposed
primarily in the context of heavy-duty
engines and vehicles, the proposed
amendments to part 1065 will also
apply to nonroad engines, and the
proposed amendments to part 1066 will
also apply to light-duty vehicles.
However, since these amendments are
mostly editorial or adding flexibility,
they will not adversely impact these
other sectors.
1. 40 CFR Part 1036 Test Procedures
Since the promulgation of the Phase
2 regulations, manufacturers have been
revising their internal test procedures to
ensure they will be able to comply with
the new requirements that begin in
model year 2021. In doing so, they have
identified several areas in which the test
procedure regulations could be
improved (in terms of overall accuracy,
repeatability and clarity) without
changing the effective stringency of the
standards. Commenters who believe that
EPA has included changes that change
the stringency of the standards are
encouraged to consider the potential
impact in the context of the full range
of proposed changes to the test
procedures, and to suggest ways in
which EPA could avoid the impact of
such changes on stringency.
The regulations in 40 CFR part 1036,
subpart F, specify how to measure
emissions from heavy-duty engines. The
test procedure amendments being
proposed for part 1036 are primarily for
the purposes of adding flexibility and
reducing variability in test results.
Additional information that led to
proposal of many of these changes arose
from a test program at Southwest
Research Institute (SwRI) that was
jointly funded by EPA and the Engine
Manufacturers Association (EMA).
These amendments are summarized
below, and readers are referred to the
proposed part 1036, subpart F
regulatory text for additional
information. Amendments for other
subparts of part 1036 (i.e., amendments
not directly related to test procedures)
are discussed in Section I.C.
• 1036.501(g)—Adding a new
paragraph (g) to denote duty cycles for
testing MY 2016–2020 engines.
2 ‘‘Passenger automobile’’ and ‘‘non-passenger
automobile’’ are defined in 49 CFR 523.4 and 523.5,
respectively. ‘‘Heavy-duty pickup trucks and vans’’
are defined in 49 CFR 523.7.

amendments to refer to the steady-state
duty cycle as the Ramped Modal Cycle
rather than the Supplemental Emission
Test.
• 1036.503—Migrating 1036.510 to
new 1036.503. Updating existing
paragraph (c) and adding a new (c)(4)

address carbon balance error
verification. This is a result of the
jointly funded EPA–EMA test program.
The overall result of these updates is to
reduce the variability of the emission
test results to improve lab-to-lab
variability.
2. 40 CFR Part 1037 Test Procedures
The regulations in 40 CFR part 1037,
subpart F, specify how to measure
emissions from heavy-duty vehicles.
They also specify how to measure
certain GEM inputs, such as
aerodynamic drag, rolling resistance,
and axle efficiency. The test procedure
amendments being proposed for part
1037, which are summarized below, are
primarily for the purpose of reducing
variability in test results and adding
optional test procedures. Given the
technical nature of these proposed
amendments, readers are referred to the
regulatory text for additional details.
Proposed amendments for other
subparts of part 1037 (i.e., amendments
not directly related to test procedures)
are discussed in Section I.C.
• 1037.105 Table 1—Updated

remains.
3. 40 CFR Part 1065 Test Procedures
The regulations in 40 CFR part 1065
specify general procedures for
measuring emissions from engines—
heavy-duty highway engines, as well as
nonroad engines. The amendments
being proposed for part 1065, which are
summarized below, are primarily for the
purpose of reducing variability in test
results.
The regulations in part 1065 rely
heavily on acronyms and abbreviations
(see 40 CFR 1065.1005 for a complete
list). Acronyms used here are
summarized in the following table:

In addition to the amendments listed
below that are being proposed for part
1065, we request comment on the use of
ASTM test method D2784 to measure
the sulfur content in liquefied
petroleum gas test fuels. This method,
which is specified as the applicable test
method in § 1065.720, has been
withdrawn by ASTM without
replacement. We request comment on
whether we should continue to specify
this method or specify an active
method. For example, should we specify
ASTM D6667 instead and incorporate it
by reference into the regulations?
• 1065.1(g)—Updated test procedure
URL.
• 1065.130(e)—Revised language to
denote that carbon balance should be
performed to verify exhaust system
integrity in place of chemical balance.
• 1065.140(c)(6)(i)—Corrected typo.
Replaced ‘‘dew point’’ with
‘‘dewpoint’’.
• 1065.140(e)(2)—Revised language
to add clarification on how to determine
minimum dilution ratio for discrete
mode testing.
• 1065.145(e)(3)(i)—Removed
requirement to heat sample pump if it
is located upstream of a NOX converter
or chiller. Replaced with requirement to
design the sample system to prevent
aqueous condensation. Given that the
concern is loss of NO2 in the sampling
system, the pump itself doesn’t
necessarily need to be heated as there
are a number of ways to prevent
condensation.
• 1065.170—Revised to allow you to
stop sampling during hybrid tests when
the engine is off and allow exclusion of
the sampling off portions of the test
from the proportional sampling
verification. Also added provision for
hybrid testing to allow supplemental
dilution air to be added to the bag in the
event that sampled volumes are too low
for emission analysis.
• 1065.205 Table 1—Revised with
edits and the addition of a
recommended performance
specification for fuel mass scales to
reduced fuel flow measurement error.
• 1065.220(a) introductory and

• 1065.275—Deleted URL and
replaced with reference to URL in
1065.266.
• 1065.280(a)—Updated to reflect that
there is no method in 1065.650 for
determining oxygen balance and that
you should develop a method using
good engineering judgment.
• 1065.303 Table 1—Updated for
formatting. Updated to add Fuel mass
scale and DEF mass scale to the linearity
verifications in 1065.307. Updated
verification in 1065.341 to replace
‘‘batch sampler’’ with ‘‘PFD’’ as PFD is
the preferred language. Updated one,
and added two, footnotes excluding
linearity verification for DEF flow if the
ECM is used and for fuel and intake air
flow if propane checks or carbon
balance is performed. This is not a new
exemption, it just relocates it to the
footnote area.
• 1065.307(d)(4)—Revised to include
DEF mass flow rate. The paragraph is
also enhanced to include additional
requirement to correct or account for
buoyancy effects and flow disturbances
to improve the flow measurement.
• 1065.307(d)(6)(i)—Revised to state
that the span gas can only contain one
single constituent in balance air (or N2
if using a gas analyzer) as the reference
signal for linearity determination.
• 1065.307(d)(7)—Revised to state
that the span gas can only contain one
single constituent in balance air (or N2
if using a gas analyzer) as the reference
signal for linearity determination.
• 1065.307(d)(9)—Expanded
paragraph to include fuel and DEF mass
scales and provided additional
requirements for performing the
linearity verification on these scales.
• 1065.370(e)(3)(i) and (ii)—Edits to
make intent clear.
• 1065.307(e)(3)(iii)—Defined mmax
for a fuel mass scale.
• 1065.307(e)(5)—Provided
additional information surrounding
requirements for using a propane check
or carbon balance verification in place
of a flow meter linearity verification.
• 1065.307(e)(7)(i)(F) and (G)—Added
transmission oil and axle gear oil to

5. Greenhouse Gas Emissions Model
(GEM)
GEM is a computer application that
estimates the greenhouse gas (GHG)
emissions and fuel efficiency
performance of specific aspects of
heavy-duty (HD) vehicles. Under the
existing Phase 2 regulations, GEM 3.0 is
used to determine compliance with the
Phase 2 standards from several vehiclespecific inputs, such as engine fuel
maps, aerodynamic drag coefficients,
and vehicle weight rating.3 GEM
simulates engine operation over two
cruise cycles, one transient cycle, and
for vocational vehicles, idle operation.
These results are weighted by GEM to
provide a composite GEM score that is
compared to the standard.
EPA is to incorporate by reference
into the regulations a revised version of
GEM (Version 3.5) for manufacturers to
demonstrate compliance with the Phase
2 standards.4 The following changes
have been incorporated in the proposed
new version, to allow additional
compliance flexibilities and improve the
vehicle simulation:
• Correcting how idle emission rates
are used in the model.

• Increasing the allowable weight
reduction range to 25,000 pounds.
• For powertrain input, adding an
input for powertrain rated power to
scale default engine power.
• Recalibrated driver over speed
allowance on cruise cycles from 3 mph
to 2.5 mph.
• Revised engine cycle generation
outputs with corrected engine cycle
generation torque output from model
based on simulated inertia and rate
limited speed target.
• Added scaling of powertrain
simulation default engine and
transmission maps based on new rated
power input.
• Changed interpolation of fuel map
used in post processing to be consistent
with one used in simulation.
• Powertrain accessory load
correction.
• Add torque converter k-factor input
option.
• Cycle average cycles: add flag for
points that are to be considered ‘‘idle.’’
• Improved handling of large input
tables.
Of these, the changes for idling
emissions are the most significant. GEM
3.0 included an error where parked idle
fuel map was used for ARB transient
idle correction, which has been
corrected for GEM 3.5 to use the drive
idle portion of the map. (Note also that
parked fuel map is now only required
for vocational vehicles.) GEM 3.5 reads
idle speed from the vehicle file and
allows manufacturers to use default
values that EPA used to develop the
standards. Other idle changes include
additional adjustments to cycle average
fuel for differences between mapped
idle and simulated idle using nonmoving average speed and load of the
ARB transient cycle average map,
regression lookup of cycle average map
uses only portions with vehicle moving,
and post-process adjustment to fuel
consumption based on simulated idle
speed/load.
Preliminary evaluations of GEM 3.5
indicate that there is little difference
between GEM 3.0 and GEM 3.5 for
cruise cycle operation. However, it is
possible some minor differences may be
observed for transient and idle
operation of some vocational vehicles.
We request comment on whether these
differences would impact impact the
effective stringency of the standards and
whether either GEM or the regulations
need to be revised to address them.

B. Heavy-Duty Engine GHG Emission
Standards and Flexibility
1. Vocational Engines and Emission
Credits
We are proposing to revise how Phase
1 engine credits from vocational engines
are treated in the Phase 2 program. As
described below, we are proposing to
allow more flexibility provided the
credits are adjusted to accurately reflect
the correct baseline.
In developing the baseline emission
rates for vocational engines in the final
Phase 2 rulemaking, we considered MY
2016 FTP certification data for diesel
engines, which showed an unexpected
step-change improvement in engine fuel
consumption and CO2 emissions
compared to data considered in the
proposed rule. The proposed baseline
emission rates came from the Phase 1
standards, which in turn were derived
from our estimates of emission rates for
2010 engines. The underlying reasons
for this shift in the final rule were
mostly related to manufacturers
optimizing their SCR thermal
management strategy over the FTP in
ways that we (mistakenly) thought they
already had in MY 2010 (i.e., the Phase
1 baseline).
As background, the FTP includes a
cold-start, a hot-start and significant
time spent at engine idle. During these
portions of the FTP, the NOX SCR
system can cool down and lose NOX
reducing efficiency. To maintain SCR
temperature, manufacturers initially
used a simplistic strategy of burning
extra fuel to heat the exhaust system.
However, during the development of
Phase 1, EPA believed manufacturers
were using more sophisticated and
efficient strategies to maintain SCR
temperature. EPA’s misunderstanding of
the baseline technology for Phase 1
provided engine manufacturers the
opportunity to generate windfall credits
against the FTP standards.
For the Phase 2 FRM, EPA revised the
baseline emission rate for vocational
engines to reflect the actual certified
emission levels. The Phase 2 vocational
engine final CO2 baseline emissions are
shown in the table below. More detailed
analyses on these Phase 2 baseline
values of tractor and vocational vehicles
can be found in Chapter 2.7.4 of the
Phase 2 Final RIA.5

EPA did not allow the carryover of
Phase 1 vocational engine credits into
the Phase 2 program, consistent with
these adjustments to the baselines.
Since this issue does not apply for RMC
emissions, the restriction was applied
only for engines certified exclusively to
the FTP standards (rather than both FTP
and RMC standards). We believed that
allowing engine credits generated
against the Phase 1 diesel FTP standards
to be carried over into the Phase 2
program would have inappropriately
diluted the Phase 2 engine program.
However, this was in the context of
unadjusted credits. After further
consideration, we now believe that it
would not dilute the program if the
credits were appropriately adjusted to
more accurately reflect improvement
over the true baseline levels.
Allowing the portion of the credits
that represent actual emission
improvements to be carried forward
would be consistent with our rationale
from Phase 2. Thus, we are proposing in
§ 1036.701(j) that for Phase 1 vocational
engines with emissions below the Phase
2 baseline engine values, manufacturers
may recalculate and generate credits
relative to the baseline levels. The
recalculated vocational engine credits
would be allowed into the Phase 2
engine program to the same extent as
tractor engine credits.
As noted in the Phase 2 FRM,
allowing additional flexibility for
compliance with engine standards does
not cause any increase in emissions
because the manufacturers must still
comply with the vehicle standards. (See
81 FR 73499). However, this flexibility
could allow some manufacturers to find
a less expensive compliance path. We
request comment on these proposed
changes and any potential impact.
2. Confirmatory Testing of Engines and
Measurement Variability
During the Phase 2 rulemaking,
manufacturers raised concern about
measurement variability impacting the
stringency of the engine GHG standards
and fuel map requirements. As noted in
the Phase 2 FRM, the final standards
were developed to account for this. (81
FR 73571, October 25, 2016).
Manufacturers raised particular
concern about variability of fuel map
measurements because neither they nor
EPA had sufficient experience
VerDate Sep<11>2014
22:43 May 11, 2020
Jkt 250001
uncertainty to be equivalent to the
uncertainty associated with measuring
CO2 emission and fuel consumption
over the FTP and RMC cycles, which we
estimated to be about one percent.
However, the Phase 2 FRM further
noted that we would incorporate test
procedure improvements that would
futher reduce test result uncertainty. We
also noted that: ‘‘If we determine in the
future . . . that the +1.0 percent we
factored into our stringency analysis
was inappropriately low or high, we
will promulgate technical amendments
to the regulations to address any
inappropriate impact this +1.0 percent
had on the stringency of the engine and
vehicle standards.’’ (81 FR 73571,
October 25, 2016)
In conjunction with this commitment,
EPA agreed to work with engine
manufacturers to better understand the
variability of measuring fuel maps.
Through that work, we identified
several sources of variability that could
be reduced by making small changes to
the test procedures. EPA is proposing
these changes, which are listed in
Sections I.A.1 through I.A.3 of this
NPRM.
SwRI performed emission
measurements in multiple test cells and
identified distributions of error for other
test inputs such measured fuel
properties and calibration gas
concentrations. SwRI then used a Monte
Carlo simulation to estimate a
distribution of errors in measured fuel
maps.6 After reviewing the results, EPA
has three significant observations:
1. The variability of measuring CO2
and fuel consumption during fuel
mapping is greater than the one percent
assumed in the Phase 2 FRM.
2. The variability of measuring CO2
and fuel consumption during the fuel
mapping procedure is roughly the same
as that of the FTP and RMC cycles.
3. Measuring CO2 and fuel
consumption at idle is particularly
challenging.
Given these results, we understand
why manufacturers would be concerned
about the possibility of EPA changing an
official fuel map results as a
consequence of EPA confirmatory
testing where the measured maps were
within the expected range of variability.
On the other hand, the similarity
between the variability of measuring
fuel maps and the variability of
measuring CO2 and fuel consumption

over the FTP and RMC cycles
(measurements for which EPA has
already determined in both Phase 1 and
Phase 2 that no such allowances are
needed) suggests that manufacturers
should ultimately be able to comply
without any special provisions.
We are also considering this issue in
the context of our longstanding policy
that emission measurements made at
our National Vehicle and Fuel
Emissions Laboratory are official
emission results. (See for example,
§ 1036.235.) We are hesitant to change
any long-standing policy in a technical
amendment rulemaking. Nevertheless,
while we believe this issue ultimately
will need to be addressed in a broader
context, we are proposing a transitional
approach to address the issue of engine
mapping variability, as discussed below.
We are proposing an interim
provision in 40 CFR 1036.150, under
which EPA will not replace a
manufacturer’s fuel maps during
confirmatory testing if the EPAmeasured fuel maps were within 2.0
percent of the manufacturer’s maps. We
are proposing this as an interim
provision but are not including an end
date at this time. We would intend to
reevaluate this provision as we learn
more about the impact of measurement
variability during fuel mapping,
including the full impact of the
proposed test procedure improvements
that are intended to reduce
measurement variability.
Since, this 2.0 percent reflects real
testing variability, EPA anticipates that
manufacturers could not know how the
variability would affect an individual
test result, which would preclude them
from relying upon this margin for
compliance in current engine designs or
in any potential engine redesign.
Additionally, EPA emphasizes that we
are proposing to adopt this as an interim
provision, and thus manufacturers
should not otherwise rely on this
provision as a compliance strategy for
engine design, as EPA intends to revisit
it based on further data and
developments.
We are also proposing an algorithm
for comparing fuel maps to one another.
Because fuel maps are multi-point
surfaces instead of single values, it
would be a common occurrence that
some of EPA’s points would be higher
than the manufacturer’s while others
would be lower.
We propose that EPA’s measured fuel
maps would be used with GEM
according to § 1036.540 to generate
emission duty cycles which simulate
several different vehicle configurations,
generating emission results for each of
the vehicles for each of the duty cycles.
E:\FR\FM\12MYP2.SGM
12MYP2
Federal Register / Vol. 85, No. 92 / Tuesday, May 12, 2020 / Proposed Rules
Each individual duty cycle result could
be weighted using the appropriate
vehicle category weighting factors in
Table 1 of 40 CFR 1037.510 to
determine a composite CO2 emission
value for that vehicle configuration. If
the process is repeated for the
manufacturer’s fuel maps, the average
percent difference between fuel maps
could be calculated as:
Where:
i = an indexing variable that represents one
individual weighted duty cycle result for
a vehicle configuration.
N = total number of vehicle configurations.

CO2 emissions in g/ton-mile for the EPA

applicable coastdown data that are
available. The applicable test data
would be those coastdown results that
were collected according to the
specified test procedures, whether
collected by the manufacturer during
certification and SEAs, or by EPA
during confirmatory testing.
Consider the hypothetical example
shown in the figure below, where a
manufacturer has coastdown results for
eight vehicles. The plot shows the
coastdown results corrected to represent
wind averaged CdA, plotted against the
corresponding wind average wind
tunnel results. Applying good
engineering judgement to such a dataset
would lead a manufacturer to separate
the vehicles into two groups, with each
having its own Falt-aero value. The
manufacturer would then need to work
with EPA to determine how to
appropriately apply these Falt-aero values
to other vehicle configurations.
As described in 40 CFR 1037.235,
EPA may perform confirmatory testing
on the manufacturer’s vehicles,
including a vehicle tested to establish
the Falt-aero value. The regulations also
include an interim provision in
§ 1037.150(s) that states:
3. Other Minor Heavy-Duty Engine
Amendments
EPA is proposing three additional
amendments to part 1036:
• Correcting the assigned N2O
deterioration factor in § 1036.150(g). In
the Phase 2 NPRM, EPA proposed to
lower the N2O standard from 0.10 g/hphr to 0.05 g/hp-hr for model year 2021
and later diesel engines. In that context,
we also proposed to lower the assigned
deterioration factor (DF) from 0.020 g/
hp-hr to 0.010 g/hp-hr for model year
2021 and later diesel engines. EPA
explained in the preamble that we were
not finalizing the change to the standard
(81 FR 73530), but inadvertently
finalized the proposed DF change in the
regulations. Today, EPA is proposing to
correct the DF back to 0.020 g/hp-hr for
all diesel engines, consistent with the
continuation of the 0.10 g/hp-hr N2O
standard.
• Clarifying a reference to nongasoline engine families in

§ 1036.705(b)(5) is intended to refer to
non-gasoline engine families. However,
the existing text is not clear. As written,
it can be read to mean that gasoline
engine families may not generate
emission credits. EPA is proposing to
add ‘‘non-gasoline’’ to make the
intended meaning clearer.

C. Heavy-Duty Vehicle GHG Emission
Standards and Flexibility
1. Considerations of Aerodynamic
Compliance Data
The aerodynamic drag of a vehicle is
determined by the vehicle’s coefficient
of drag (Cd), frontal area, air density and
speed. The regulations in § 1037.525
allow manufacturers to use a range of
techniques, including wind tunnel
testing, computational fluid dynamics,
and constant speed tests. This broad
approach is appropriate given that no
single test procedure is superior in all
aspects to other approaches. However,
we also recognized the need for
consistency and a level playing field in
evaluating aerodynamic performance.
To address the consistency and level
playing field concerns, EPA adopted an
approach that identified coastdown
testing as the reference aerodynamic test
method, and specified a procedure to
align results from other aerodynamic
test procedures with the reference
method by applying a correction factor
(Falt-aero) to results from alternative
methods (§ 1037.525(b)).
With this approach, it is important
that Falt-aero be accurate. Thus, the
regulations (§ 1037.525(b)) require that
manufacturers use good engineering
judgement 7 when developing Falt-aero,
which would include considering all
7 Good engineering judgment means judgments
made consistent with generally accepted scientific
and engineering principles and all available
relevant information. See 40 CFR 1068.5 for
additional discussion about applying good
engineering judgment.

Frm 00009
Fmt 4701

If we conduct coastdown testing to verify
your Falt-aero value for Phase 2 tractors, we
will make our determination using a
statistical analysis consistent with the
principles of SEA testing in § 1037.305. We
will calculate confidence intervals using the
same equations and will not replace your test
results with ours if your result falls within
our confidence interval or is greater than our
test result.
We are proposing to revise the interim
allowance in § 1037.150(s) to require
EPA to perform a minimum of 100 valid
runs before replacing a manufacturer’s
value.
Test conditions for coastdown testing
are another important consideration. For
our testing, EPA intends to minimize
the differences between our test
conditions and those of the
manufacturer by testing at similar times
of the year. However, because of the
limited number of coastdown test
facilities and the challenges of
E:\FR\FM\12MYP2.SGM
12MYP2
EP12MY20.000
We request comment on the interim
approach, and whether it appropriately
balances the impacts of testing
variability for fuel maps.

scheduling time for testing, we cannot
commit to testing during the same
season as the manufacturer. In addition,
even if we could test during the same
season, we cannot prevent differences in
test conditions.
Some manufacturers have expressed
concern that this approach leaves too
much risk for them because changing an
Falt-aero value would impact a large
portion of their production and could
undermine their compliance plans.
These manufacturers suggest that EPA
should revise the regulations to provide
for larger differences before EPA is
allowed to replace their value. Although
we understand this concern, we do not
believe the manufacturers’ suggestion
would be the appropriate long-term
solution. When multiple measurements
provide different values, good
engineering judgment would generally
call for more data rather than selecting
a single value. Keeping with this
principle, EPA is requesting comment
on a potential allowance for
manufacturers to conduct additional
coastdown testing in response to a
change by EPA to their Falt-aero value
through a 40 CFR 1068.5 good
engineering judgment request. EPA
would attempt to be present to witness
the testing, and potentially take our own
measurements. EPA would follow the
procedures under 40 CFR 1068.5 in
responding to the manufacturer to
determine an appropriate Falt-aero value,
consistent with good engineering
judgment.
Section 208 of the Act provides EPA
broad oversight authority for
manufacturer testing. Consistent with
that authority, we are proposing to add
a provision to our regulations at 40 CFR
1037.525(b)(8) to encourage
manufacturers to proactively coordinate
with EPA to have compliance staff
present when a manufacturer conducts
its coastdown testing to establish Falt-aero
values. Being present for the testing
would give EPA greater confidence that
the test was conducted properly, and
thus, would make it less likely that EPA
would need to conduct aerodynamic
confirmatory testing on the vehicle.
Additionally, under our current
regulations, see 40 CFR 1037.301 and
1037.305, EPA may require, and
generally intends to require for the 2021
model year, that manufacturers perform
SEA testing of at least one of their
reference configurations.
We are also proposing to revise the
minimum number of runs required for
a manufacturer to fail an SEA. Under
the current Phase 2 regulations, a
manufacturer could fail an SEA after as
few as 24 valid runs. However, review
of more recently available indicates that
false failures may occur if the decision
is based on 24 runs. Therefore, we are
proposing to require a minimum of 100
valid runs before a vehicle is deemed to
have failed the SEA test.
While we believe that these changes
and clarifications would largely address
the manufacturers’ concerns, we request
comment on other possible
improvements to the aerodynamic test
procedures and compliance program.
2. Idle Reduction for Tractors
The Phase 1 version of GEM gives
credit for idle emission reduction
technologies that include a tamper-proof
automatic engine shutoff system (AESS),
with few override provisions. Phase 2
GEM gives credit for a wider variety of
idle reduction strategies, recognizing
technologies that are available on the
market today, such as auxiliary power
units (APUs), diesel fired heaters, and
battery powered units. For example, a
tamper-proof AESS with a diesel APU
would be credited with a 4 percent
reduction in emissions, while an
adjustable AESS with a diesel fired
heater would be credited with a 2
percent reduction in emissions (See 81
FR 73601, October 25, 2016).
We now realize that the regulations
should also recognize combinations of
these technologies. It is common for
sleeper-cab tractors to include a
combination of these technologies to
address a broader range of ambient
temperatures. For example, a fuel
operated heater may be used for heating
during the winter months, while a
battery APU may be used for air
conditioning in the summer. Therefore,
we are proposing to add the following
combinations of idle reduction
technologies to Table 9 of § 1037.520.
By adding these values to GEM, it
would reduce the compliance burden
for manufacturers who would otherwise
need to pursue off-cycle credits for these
technology combinations. The values of
the proposed technology benefits were
determined using the same methodology
used in the Phase 2 final rule. 8 9

3. Manufacturer Testing of Production
Vehicles
The regulations will require tractor
manufacturers to annually chassis test
five production vehicles over the GEM
cycles to verify that relative reductions
simulated in GEM are being achieved in
actual production. See 40 CFR 1037.665.
We do not expect absolute correlation
between GEM results and chassis
testing. GEM makes many simplifying

assumptions that do not compromise its
usefulness for certification but do cause
it to produce emission rates different
from what would be measured during a
chassis dynamometer test. Given the
limits of correlation possible between
GEM and chassis testing, we would not
expect such testing to accurately reflect
whether a vehicle was compliant with
the GEM standards. Therefore,
§ 1037.665 does not apply compliance
liability to such testing. Rather, this
testing will be for informational
purposes only. (81 FR 73638, October
25, 2016.)
The regulation also allows
manufacturers to request approval of
alternative testing ‘‘that will provide
equivalent or better information.’’
Manufacturers have asked us to clarify
this allowance. Therefore, we are
proposing to explicitly allow CO2 data

from manufacturer-run on-road testing.
To qualify, the vehicles would need to
be actual production vehicles rather
than custom-built prototype vehicles.
Such vehicles could be covered by
testing or manufacturer owned
exemptions but would need to be
produced on an assembly line or other
normal production practices.
Manufacturers would also need to
ensure test methods are sufficiently
similar from year to year to allow for a
meaningful analysis of trends.
4. Canadian Vehicle Standards
During the Phase 2 rulemaking,
Environment and Climate Change
Canada (ECCC) emphasized that the
highway weight limitations in Canada
are much greater than those in the U.S.
Where the U.S. federal highways have
limits of 80,000 pounds gross combined
weight, Canadian provinces have weight
limits up to 140,000 pounds. This
difference could potentially limit
emission reductions that could be
achieved if ECCC were to fully
harmonize with the U.S.’s HD Phase 2
standards because a significant portion
of the tractors sold in Canada have
GCWR (Gross Combined Weight Rating)
greater than EPA’s 120,000-pound
weight criterion for ‘‘heavy-haul’’
tractors.
EPA addressed this in Phase 2 by
adopting provisions that allow the
manufacturers the option for vehicles
above 120,000 pounds GCWR to meet
the more stringent standards that reflect
the ECCC views on appropriate
technology improvements, along with
the powertrain requirements that go
along with higher GCWR (see 81 FR
73582, October 25, 2016). Vehicles in
the 120,000 to 140,000 pound GCWR
range would normally be treated as
simple ‘‘heavy haul’’ tractors in GEM,
which eliminates the GEM input for
aerodynamics. However, vehicles
certified to the optional standards
would be classified as ‘‘heavy Class 8’’
tractors in GEM, which then requires an
aerodynamic input. Nevertheless, they
both use the heavier payload for heavy
haul.
ECCC has since adopted final
standards for these tractors, which differ
from the optional standards finalized in
Phase 2.10 Since the purpose of these
standards was to facilitate certification
of vehicles intended for Canada, we are
now proposing to revise our optional

standards to be the same as the final
ECCC standards. The proposed
standards can be found in § 1037.670.
Note that these standards are not
directly comparable to either the normal
Class 8 standards or the heavy haul
standards of § 1037.106 because GEM
uses different inputs for them.
ECCC has also adopted new standards
for tractors in the 97,000 to 120,000pound GCWR category. We request
comment on the need for special
provisions for these vehicles.
5. Vehicle Model Year Definition
For Phase 2 tractors and vocational
vehicles, the vehicle’s regulatory model
year is usually the calendar year
corresponding to the date of
manufacture. However, the Phase 2
regulations allow the vehicle’s model
year to be designated to be the year
before the calendar year corresponding
to the date of manufacture if the
engine’s model year is from an earlier
year.
After promulgation of the FRM, it
became apparent that the Phase 2
vehicle model year definition does not
allow starting a vehicle model year
before January 1st of the named model
year if the engine model year also begins
in the earlier year. For example, if a
manufacturer would start its 2024
engine model year in December 2023,
the definition would not allow vehicles
produced in 2023 to be model year
2024.
To address this issue, EPA is
proposing to add back the option to
allow the vehicle’s model year to be
designated to be the year after the
calendar year of manufacture. In other
words, we would allow manufacturers
to meet standards earlier to ensure that
engine and vehicle model years are
aligned. Model years would still be
constrained to reflect annual (rather
than multi-year) production periods and
include January 1 of the named year.
6. Compliance Margins for GEM Inputs
The regulations at 40 CFR 1037.620(d)
allow components manufacturers to
conduct testing for vehicle
manufacturers, but they do not specify
restrictions for the format of the data.
Vehicle manufacturers have raised
concerns about component
manufacturers including compliance
margins in GEM inputs—in other words,
inputting a value that is significantly
worse than the tested result. They state
that many component suppliers are
providing GEM inputs with compliance
margins, rather than raw test results.
However, when stacked together, the
compliance margins would result in
inappropriately high GEM results that
PO 00000
Frm 00011
Fmt 4701
Sfmt 4702
28149
would not represent the vehicles being
produced.
In addressing this concern, it is
important to distinguish between engine
fuel maps (which are certified
separately) and other GEM inputs that
are not certified. As is discussed in
Section I.B.2, certified engine fuel maps
are expected to include compliance
margins (albeit small margins).
However, EPA did not expect each GEM
input to have a significant compliance
margin of its own. (Note that the
aerodynamic bin structure serves to
provide an inherent compliance margin
for most vehicles.) Rather, we expected
the certifying OEM to include
compliance margins in their Family
Emission Limits (FELs) relative to the
GEM outputs.
For vehicle GHG standards, the
primary role for FEL compliance
margins is to protect against Selective
Enforcement Audit (SEA) failures.
Without a compliance margin under the
Phase 2 regulations, normal production
variability would cause some vehicles to
fail, which would require the testing of
additional vehicles. Even if the family
ultimately passed the SEA, it would
probably require the manufacturer to
test a large number of vehicles.
However, because SEAs for particular
components would not target GEM
inputs for other components, a modest
compliance margin for the FEL would
be sufficient to cover the full range of
components.
While we are not proposing explicit
changes with respect to compliance
margins, we are proposing to revise the
procedures for conducting an SEA for
an axle or transmission apart from a
specific vehicle. These revisions would
further obviate a need for componentspecific compliance margins.
Although we do not believe that
suppliers should normally include
compliance margins when providing
test data to OEMs for GEM inputs, we
do believe they should provide to OEMs
some characterization of the statistical
confidence they have in their data. This
would allow the OEM to apply an
appropriate overall compliance margin
for their FEL.
Finally, none of this is intended to
discourage suppliers and OEMs from
entering into commercial agreements
related to the accuracy of test results or
SEA performance.
7. SEAs for Axles and Transmissions
Under 40 CFR 1037.320, a selective
enforcement audit (SEA) for axles or
transmissions would consist of
performing measurements with a
production axle or transmission to
determine mean power loss values as
E:\FR\FM\12MYP2.SGM
12MYP2
28150
Federal Register / Vol. 85, No. 92 / Tuesday, May 12, 2020 / Proposed Rules
jbell on DSKJLSW7X2PROD with PROPOSALS2
declared for GEM simulations, and
running GEM over one or more
applicable duty cycles based on those
measured values. The axle or
transmission is considered passing for a
given configuration if the new modeled
emission result for every applicable
duty cycle is at or below the modeled
emission result corresponding to the
declared GEM inputs. As described
below, EPA is proposing to revise the
consequences where an axle or
transmission does not pass.
We believe special provisions are
needed for axles and transmissions
given their importance as compliance
technologies and a market structure in
which a single axle or transmission
could be used by multiple certifying
OEMs. Under the existing SEA
regulations, if an axle or transmission
family from an independent supplier
fails an SEA, vehicle production could
be disrupted for multiple OEMs and
have serious economic impacts on them.
We are proposing new regulatory text
that would minimize the disruption to
vehicle production.
Under the proposal, if the initial axle
or transmission passes, then the family
would pass, and no further testing
would be required. This is the same as
under the existing regulations. However,
if the initial axle or transmission does
not pass, two additional production
axles or transmissions, as applicable,
would need to be tested. Upon
completion of the third test, the results
of the three tests would be combined
into a single map. This would become
the official test result for the family. In
other words, this proposed approach
would correct the data used by the OEM
for their end-of-year report.
We request comment on whether
there are other components for which
this approach would be appropriate.
8. Weight Reduction
The regulations in 40 CFR 1037.520
include tables to calculate weight
reduction values for using certain
lightweight components. The sum of the
weight reductions is used as an input to
GEM. EPA is proposing two changes to
Table 8 of that section. First, we are
proposing to allow manufacturers to use
the heavy heavy-duty (HHD) values for
medium heavy-duty (MHD) vehicles
with three axles (i.e., 6x4 and 6x2
configurations). These MHD vehicles
typically share chassis components with
HHD vehicles, but are classified as MHD
because of the lighter duty engines.
Second, we are proposing to add a
footnote to the table to clarify that the
weight reduction values apply per
vehicle (instead of per component)
unless otherwise noted.
VerDate Sep<11>2014
22:43 May 11, 2020
Jkt 250001
9. Electric and Hybrid Vehicles in
Vocational Applications
Manufacturers have expressed
concern that the Phase 2 regulations are
not specific enough regarding how to
classify hybrid vocational vehicles (see
40 CFR 1037.140). This is not an issue
for tractors, which are classified based
on GVWR. However, vocational vehicles
are generally classified by the class of
the engines. Obviously, this approach
does not work for electric vehicle
without engines. This approach could
also misrepresent a hybrid vehicle that
is able to use an undersized engine. To
address these problems, we are
proposing to revise 40 CFR 1037.140(g)
to clarify that hybrid vehicles are heavy
heavy-duty vehicles if they are either
propelled by a heavy heavy-duty engine
and all other hybrid and electric
vehicles are classified by GVWR class.
We request comment on alternative
approaches, such as specifying the
useful life in hours rather than miles for
these vocational vehicles, or allowing
electric vehicles to step down one
weight class, with justification from the
manufacturer.
10. Vocational Vehicle Segmentation
The Phase 2 regulatory structure
applies the primary vocational
standards by subcategory based on drive
cycles. The three subcategories are
Regional, Multi-purpose, and Urban.
Manufacturers are generally allowed to
certify vocational vehicles in the
particular duty-cycle subcategory they
believe to be most appropriate,
consistent with good engineering
judgment. This process for selecting the
correct subcategory is often called
‘‘segmentation.’’ Under this structure,
EPA expects manufacturers to choose a
subcategory for each vehicle
configuration that best represents the
type of operation that vehicle will
actually experience in use. This is
important because several technologies
provide very different emission
reductions depending on the actual inuse drive cycle. For example, stop-start
would provide the biggest emission
reductions for urban vehicles and much
less reduction for vehicles that operate
primary on long intercity drives.
Manufacturers have raised concerns
about the impact of this structure on
their ability to plan for and monitor
compliance. They have suggested that
more objective and quantitative good
engineering judgment criteria would be
helpful. In response to these concerns,
EPA is proposing an interim ‘‘safe
harbor’’ provision for vocational vehicle
segmentation. Manufacturers meeting
the safe harbor criteria described below
PO 00000
Frm 00012
Fmt 4701
Sfmt 4702
would be presumed to have applied
good engineering judgment.
The first principle of this safe harbor
would be that any vehicle could be
classified as Multi-purpose. The Multipurpose duty cycle weighting factors
include significant weightings for
highway operation, lower speed
transient operation, and idle. Thus, it
would not generally overvalue an
individual technology.
The second principle of this safe
harbor would be that vehicles not
classified as Multi-purpose should not
be exclusively Regional or Urban. We
are proposing a quantitative measure
that evaluates the ratio of Regional
vehicles to Urban vehicles within an
averaging set. Specifically, ratio of
Regional vehicles to Urban vehicles
must be between 1:5 and 5:1. An
equivalent way of saying this is that the
number of Regional vehicles divided by
the number of Urban vehicles would
need to be between 0.20 and 5.0.
We believe this safe harbor would be
consistent with the intent of the Phase2
program and would not allow
manufacturers to reduce the effective
stringency the standards. Nevertheless,
EPA requests comment on this approach
overall and the range of acceptable
ratios. We also request comment on how
to handle specialty manufacturers that
have a less diverse product offerings.
Finally, we request comment on the
need for the subcategory on the label
and whether or not we should allow
manufacturers to reassign subcategories
for their end-of-year ABT reports.
11. Early Certification for Small
Manufacturers
Vehicle manufacturers that qualify as
small businesses are exempt from the
Phase 1 standards, but must meet the
Phase 2 standards beginning in 2022.
However, some vehicle families have
been certified voluntarily to Phase 1
standards by small manufacturers. In an
effort to encourage more voluntary early
certification to Phase 1 standards, we
are proposing to adopt a new interim
provision in § 1037.150(y)(4) for small
manufacturers that certify their entire
U.S.-directed production volume to the
Phase 1 standards for calendar year
2021. If the small manufacturers do so,
the proposed provision would then
allow these manufacturers to certify to
the Phase 1 standards for model year
2022 (instead of the otherwise
applicable Phase 2 standards). Early
compliance with the Phase 1 standards
should more than offset any reduction
in benefits for model year 2022
(although the magnitude of any impact
on air quality would be small because
E:\FR\FM\12MYP2.SGM
12MYP2
Federal Register / Vol. 85, No. 92 / Tuesday, May 12, 2020 / Proposed Rules
of the small production volumes that
would be involved).
The proposed provision would also
allow the Phase 1 vehicle credits that
small manufacturers generate from
model year 2018 through 2022
vocational vehicles to be used through
model year 2027. Under the existing
regulations, all manufacturers that
generate credits under the Phase 1
program are allowed to use such Phase
1 vehicle credits in the Phase 2 vehicle
averaging, banking, and trading
program, but the credits are subject to
the five-year credit life. The limit on
credit life can be problematic for small
manufacturers with limited product
lines which allow them less flexibility
in averaging. We believe the longer
credit life would provide them the
flexibility they would need to ensure all
of their products are fully compliant by
the time the Phase 2 standards are fully
phased in for model year 2027.
We request comment on these
proposed changes and any potential
impact.
12. Other Minor Heavy-Duty Vehicle
Amendments
EPA is proposing four additional
amendments to part 1037:
• Self-contained air conditioning
units. We are proposing to revise
§ 1037.115(e) to clarify that it is
intended to address air conditioning
systems for which the primary purpose
is to cool the driver compartment. This
would generally include all complete
pickups and vans, but not self-contained
air conditioning or refrigeration units on
vocational vehicles.
• Warranty. We are proposing to
revise § 1037.120(b) to correct the text
D. Requests for Comment on Phase 2
Regulations
EPA is soliciting comments on other
potential amendments, including those
described in this Section II.D. We also
welcome comments on the need for
other technical corrections and
clarifications. Readers are reminded to
review public comments placed in the
docket, which may contain requests for
other corrections and clarifications.
1. Vocational Engines and Credits
In 40 CFR 1036.150(p), EPA provides
special flexibility for engine
manufacturers that certify all their
model year 2020 engines within an
averaging set to the model year 2021
FTP and SET standards and
requirements. GHG emission credits
those manufacturers generate with
model year 2018 through 2024 engines
may be used through model year 2030,
instead of being limited to a five-year
credit life as specified in § 1036.740(d).
They will also be allowed to certify
model year 2024 through 2026 tractor
engines to alternative standards that are
slightly higher than the otherwise
applicable standards.
The choice would be made when
certifying MY 2020 engines. Instead of
certifying engines to the final year of the
Phase 1 engine standards,
manufacturers electing the alternative
would indicate that they are instead
certifying to the MY 2021 Phase 2
engine standard. Because these engine
manufacturers would be reducing
emissions of engines otherwise subject
to the MY 2020 Phase 1 engine
standards (and because engine
reductions were not reflected in the
Phase 1 vehicle program), there would
be a net benefit to the environment.
These engines would not generate
credits relative to the Phase 1 standards
(that is, MY 2020 engines would only
use or generate credits relative to the
pulled ahead MY 2021 Phase 2 engines
standards). Because the vehicle
standards themselves are unaffected,
these voluntary standards would not
reduce the GHG reductions or fuel
savings of the program. Vehicle
manufacturers using the alternative MYs
2024–2026 engines would need to adopt
additional vehicle technology (i.e.,
technology beyond that projected to be
needed to meet the engine standard) to
meet the applicable vehicle GHG
standards. This means the vehicles
would still achieve the same fuel
efficiency in use.
EPA did not adopt a similar provision
for alternative MY 2024–2026 standards
for vocational engines due to concerns
about windfall credits. However, given
our proposed amendment to address
these windfall credits (Section I.B.1), we
are asking for comment on the
possibility of a similar set of alternative
standards for vocational engines, as
shown in the following table:
Model years
Medium heavy-duty vocational
2020–2023 ..........................................................................................
2024–2026 ..........................................................................................
545 g/hp-hr ......................................
542 g/hp-hr ......................................
As noted in the Phase 2 FRM, EPA
views this type of alternative as being
positive from the environmental and
energy conservation perspectives, while
providing significant flexibility for
manufacturers that may reduce their
compliance costs. (81 FR 73499, October
25, 2016)

Stop-start systems are an important
technology to reduce unnecessary
idling, such as when a vehicle is

must operate in order to qualify for GEM
credit. Included among those provisions
are allowances for overriding the

3. Delegated Assembly
In 40 CFR 1037.621, EPA specifies
provisions to allow manufacturers to
ship incomplete vehicles and delegate
the final assembly to another entity.
Manufacturers have expressed the
concern that these ‘‘delegated assembly’’
requirements are too burdensome in
some cases, particularly in cases such as
auxiliary power units and natural gas
fuel tanks. EPA requests comment on
this issue.
4. Certification Reporting Requirements
EPA requests comment on whether
and how to revise the text to simplify or
clarify the provisions in 40 CFR
1037.205 that require the inclusion of
GEM results and credit projections in
applications for certification.

5. Mild Hybrid Certification
Under the Phase 2 regulations,
manufacturers must conduct powertrain
testing if they wish to take credit for
hybrid systems, including mild hybrid
systems. However, manufacturers have
expressed concerns about the cost of
powertrain testing and that the existing
procedure may not measure
improvements from certain mild hybrid
systems. EPA requests comment on
alternative means of evaluating mild
hybrids. Manufacturers have asked EPA
to consider the following options:
• Allow manufacturers to test a
powertrain and apply analyticallyderived scaling factors to others (e.g.,
scale by fraction of battery capacity or
motor capacity) under 40 CFR
1037.235(h).
• Allow manufacturers to use
international test procedures for battery
capacity, motor power, and motor
efficiency.
• Provide smaller credit (potentially
with a volume limit and/or only for
limited time) in exchange for less testing
(e.g., reduced benefit when using the
simplified model spreadsheet that is
available under docket no. EPA–HQ–
OAR–2014–0827–2109).
6. Transmission Calibrations
Manufacturers with advanced
transmission calibrations may use the
powertrain test option in § 1037.550 to
demonstrate the performance of their
transmissions. We adopted this option
to provide an incentive for the
development of advanced transmissions
with sophisticated calibrations.
Transmission manufacturers have
developed some new efficient
calibrations, but must also maintain less
efficient calibrations to address special
types of operation. Due to concerns
about resale value, most customers want
to retain the ability to select the correct
VerDate Sep<11>2014

Jkt 250001
calibration for their operation. For
transmissions with such selectable
calibrations, § 1037.235(a) requires that
they test using the worst-case
calibration, which can undermine the
incentive to continue improving the
calibrations. Therefore, we are
requesting comment on allowing
manufacturers to measure both the bestand worst-case calibrations and weight
them based on survey data, or other
appropriate means. Commenters are
encouraged to address whether such an
allowance would change the effective
stringency of the standards.
7. Data Requirements for HydrogenFueled Vehicles
We request comment on whether
special provisions are needed for
hydrogen-fueled vehicles. Currently
GEM simulation is required for these
vehicles, although by using a noncarbon fuel, simulating the vehicle with
GEM would result in zero CO2
emissions. We request comment on
whether or not to change our current
approach.
E. Other Heavy-Duty Highway
Amendments
This proposed rule includes other
amendments related to heavy-duty
highway engines. For example, we are
updating the regulations for certification
fees as described in Section III.C. We are
also proposing or soliciting comment on
additional amendments as described in
the following sections.
1. Onboard Diagnostics (OBD)
EPA’s OBD regulations for heavy-duty
engines are contained in 40 CFR
86.010–18, which was promulgated
February 24, 2009 (74 FR 8310).
Although these regulations were
originally harmonized with CARB’s
OBD program, CARB has made changes
to their regulations which EPA has not
adopted. In several cases, CARB has
added flexibility to its regulations. We
are requesting comment generally on the
differences between EPA and CARB
regulations, in addition to the specific
issues identified below.
More recently CARB has proposed
additional revisions and is expected to
finalize them this year.11 We also
request comment on these more recent
CARB changes.
We request comment on the new
definitions proposed by CARB at 13
CCR 1971.1(c), including the definitions
for ‘‘alternate phase-in’’, ‘‘diagnostic or
emission critical electronic control
unit’’, and ‘‘smart device’’.

EPA is requesting comment on
California’s approach to approving
deficiencies during a model year. In
§ 1971.1(k)(6.1.1) of their regulations,
CARB states:
The manufacturer may request a retroactive
deficiency until either of the following dates,
whichever is later:
(A) When the last affected engine or
vehicle is produced, or on December 31 of
the calendar year for which the model year
is named, whichever is sooner; or
(B) 6 months after commencement of the
start of engine production or vehicle
production, whichever is later.
Our current regulations do not allow
for retroactive deficiencies. EPA is
requesting comment on whether to
adopt CARB’s approach.
We are proposing to adopt the CARB
5% threshold for misfire in § 86.010–
18(g)(2), and to adopt the additional
flexibility provided by CARB for
misfires in 13 CCR 1971.1(e)(2.3.3). This
would allow manufacturers to not detect
misfires under certain conditions, such
as during aftertreatment regeneration
and some low temperature operation.
We are proposing to revise our in-use
compliance standards in § 86.010–18(p)
to reflect the CARB approach for
minimum ratios for representative
samples. Under the proposed text, an
OBD system would not be considered
noncompliant unless a representative
sample indicates the in-use ratio is
below 0.088.
CARB has developed reporting
templates for its OBD requirements.
EPA is proposing to allow
manufacturers to use these templates for
reporting to EPA, and we are requesting
comment on whether regulatory changes
are needed. See CARB Mail-Out #MSC
09–22 as amended on 18-Apr-2019.
Our OBD regulations rely on several
standard procedures developed by SAE
International, as specified in § 86.010–
18(k). The regulations also reference a
standard of the International
Organization for Standardization (ISO).
We request comment on the need to
update these procedures to more recent
versions as summarized below.

jbell on DSKJLSW7X2PROD with PROPOSALS2
In § 86.010–18(l), EPA specifies
testing requirements for demonstrating
the performance of monitoring systems.
The amount of testing required depends
on the number of engine families a
manufacturer certifies in a given model
year. CARB regulations include
equivalent requirements, and our intent
is to allow the use of test data generated
for CARB. We are proposing to revise
our regulations to state that CARBcertified configurations do not count as
separate engine families for the
purposes of this provision.
EPA is proposing to revise § 86.010–
18(a) and (m) to allow a simplified
carryover OBD certification path
intended for special engine families,
such as those certified for export to
Canada. This proposed provision is
similar to the allowance to show
compliance with § 86.010–18 based on
CARB certification. To make use of
either alternative, the manufacturer
must demonstrate to the Administrator
how the OBD system they intend to
certify meets the intent behind all the
requirements of § 86.010–18.
These amendments address heavyduty engines used in vehicles with
GVWR above 14,000 pounds. We
request comment on the need for similar
changes for engine-certified heavy-duty
engine families subject to 40 CFR
86.007–17 and 86.1806–17.
2. Smoke Standards and Smoke
Measurement Procedures
Diesel heavy-duty highway engines
have been subject to smoke standards in
addition to brake-specific emission
standards for many years. The current
exhaust emission standards for
particulate matter (PM) cause
manufacturers to apply calibrations and
emission control strategies that reduce
PM from the exhaust to very low levels.
There is some relationship between
brake-specific PM emissions and smoke,
but they are not inherently linked.
Nevertheless, modern engines with very
low PM emissions have very low smoke
levels when properly maintained. Thus,
we do not believe smoke standards
achieve any emission reductions beyond
those that result from DPF-forcing PM
standards.
Manufacturers submit smoke data
with certification, but smoke testing is
not required for selective enforcement
audits with production engines. Some
state programs continue to rely on
smoke measurement to screen for highemitting trucks. However, these state
testing programs are separate from EPA
certification, so we do not expect the
state programs to depend on EPA
certification for smoke standards. We
therefore request comment on removing
VerDate Sep<11>2014
22:43 May 11, 2020
Jkt 250001
the smoke standard as a certification
requirement for heavy-duty highway
engines. We particularly request
comment on the EPA smoke standard
and its relationship to state testing
programs.
There are also questions about the
smoke test procedures. The smoke test
procedures are specified in 40 CFR part
86, subpart I. These procedures were
first adopted almost 50 years ago and
have remained largely unchanged since
that time. They currently apply for
locomotives (40 CFR part 1033) and
some land-based nonroad diesel engines
(40 CFR part 1039). To the extent these
procedures continue to apply, we may
undertake a future rulemaking to update
these procedures and include them in
40 CFR part 1065 along with the other
test procedures for measuring exhaust
emissions from test engines. We request
comment on appropriate changes to
ensure that these measurement
procedures reflect currently available
instruments and practices, without
causing the measured values to redefine
the stringency of existing standards.
3. Migration From 40 CFR Part 86,
Subpart A
EPA created 40 CFR part 86 in 1976
to reorganize emission standards and
certification requirements for light-duty
and heavy-duty highway vehicles and
engines. In 1985, EPA adopted new
standards for heavy-duty highway
engines, codifying the standards in 40
CFR part 86, subpart A, along with the
standards and certification procedures
for light-duty vehicles and light-duty
trucks.12 Since then, EPA has adopted
several rules to set new and more
stringent standards for both light-duty
and heavy-duty emission control
programs and to add or revise
certification procedures. However, the
original regulatory structure was not
well-suited to handle the number of
revisions that occurred over time.
To improve clarity for regulated
parties, EPA has been planning to
migrate the highway heavy-duty engine
standards and certification requirements
to 40 CFR part 1036.13 We expect to
propose that migration in a separate
rulemaking. The general approach will
12 Emission standards for heavy-duty highway
engines were first adopted by the Department of
Health, Education, and Welfare in the 1960s. These
standards and the corresponding certification and
testing procedures were codified at 45 CFR part
1201. In 1972, shortly after EPA was created as a
federal agency, EPA published new standards and
updated procedures while migrating the regulations
to 40 CFR part 85 as part of the effort to consolidate
all EPA regulations in a single location.
13 40 CFR part 1036 was created in 2011 as part
of the Phase 1 GHG rulemaking (76 FR 57381,
September 15, 2011).

be to keep the essential regulatory
elements in 40 CFR part 86, subpart A,
but to streamline and update the
regulatory provisions to align with best
practices and other current provisions
that apply for nonroad engines (such as
40 CFR parts 1033, 1039, and 1042). We
believe this technical amendment
rulemaking is a good opportunity to
solicit input on principles and
opportunities for eventually adopting
those updated regulations in 40 CFR
part 1036.
The migration of regulatory
provisions to 40 CFR part 1036 is
planned for a future rulemaking because
it necessitates a thorough investigation
of the provisions that currently apply to
heavy-duty engines under 40 CFR part
86. A memo in the docket for this
proposal describes a range of possible
regulatory amendments we could
eventually adopt to reorganize the
provisions within 40 CFR part 86,
subpart A, eliminate obsolete content,
and improve the readability of the
remaining provisions.14 We request
comment on those regulatory changes,
and on the value of making these
changes in this rulemaking, considering
that these changes will apply only for
the limited time that 40 CFR part 86,
subpart A, continues to apply.
III. Other Amendments
A. Ethanol-Blend Test Fuels for
Nonroad Spark-Ignition Engines and
Vehicles, Highway Motorcycles, and
Portable Fuel Containers
EPA adopted exhaust and evaporative
emission standards for gasoline-fueled
nonroad engines, vehicles, and
equipment before there was a federal
gasoline test fuel with 10 percent
ethanol (E10). Most of those programs
therefore relied on testing with neat
gasoline (E0) or with a splash-blended
mix of neat gasoline and ethanol to
make E10. In the meantime, EPA
adopted a federal gasoline test fuel with
10 percent ethanol for testing motor
vehicles (79 FR 23414, April 28, 2014).
California ARB adopted its own
specification for an E10 test fuel for
testing motor vehicles, referred to as
‘‘LEV III E10.’’ California ARB revised
its nonroad emission control programs
to require manufacturers to start using
LEV III E10 test fuel for certification
starting in model year 2020, without
allowing for carryover of previous data
from testing with neat gasoline.
California ARB’s move to require use of
LEV III E10 test fuel for certification has

led manufacturers to express a concern
about the test burden associated with
separate testing to demonstrate
compliance with EPA and California
ARB emission standards.
The concern for aligning test
requirements related to test fuel applies
for marine spark-ignition engines (40
CFR part 1045), nonroad spark-ignition
engines above 19 kW (40 CFR part
1048), and recreational vehicles (40 CFR
part 1051).15 We expect a similar
situation to apply for highway
motorcycles in the 2022–2025 time
frame based on California ARB’s plans
for further rulemaking activity. In
addition, we believe it is best to update
evaporative emission test procedures for
equipment using nonroad spark-ignition
engines (40 CFR part 1060) to allow for
using EPA’ specified E10 test fuel
instead of relying on splash-blending
ethanol with EPA’s specified E0
gasoline test fuel (known as indolene).
We have issued guidance for marine
spark-ignition engines (40 CFR part
1045) 16 and for recreational vehicles (40
CFR part 1051) 17 describing how we
may approve certification based on
emission measurements with an E10 test
fuel. We are proposing to revise 40 CFR
parts 1045, 1048, and 1051, consistent
with the recently issued guidance
documents, to allow for certification
based on emission measurements with
EPA’s E10 test fuel without requiring
EPA approval, and without adjusting
emission standards to account for fuel
effects. For marine spark-ignition
engines (40 CFR part 1045), this merely
replaces the existing provision allowing
for the alternative of using a splashblended E10 test fuel. For recreational
vehicles (40 CFR part 1051) and Large
SI engines (40 CFR part 1048), naming
EPA’s E10 specification as the
alternative test fuel is a new provision.
As originally adopted for Marine SI
engines, EPA would always be able to
do confirmatory testing with either the
original E0 test fuel, or the
manufacturer’s selected alternative fuel.
We are also proposing to allow the
same approach for certification based on
emission measurements with EPA’s E10
test fuel for highway motorcycles
(including EPA confirmatory testing
with either E0 or E10).
15 EPA adopted amendments to address these
concerns for nonroad spark-ignition engines at or
below 19 kW in an earlier rulemaking (80 FR 9114,
February 19, 2015).

Manufacturers may want to test with
California ARB’s LEV III E10 test fuel
instead of EPA’s E10 test fuel. The two
sets of fuel specifications are nearly
identical, except that the EPA E10 test
fuel has a higher volatility. For testing
hot-stabilized engines, volatility has a
very small effect on exhaust emissions.
As a result, we would expect to approve
a manufacturer’s request to use LEV III
E10 test fuel instead of EPA’s E10 test
fuel under 40 CFR 1065.701(b). This
provision allows EPA to approve a
different test fuel if it does not affect a
manufacturer’s ability to show that its
engines will comply with all applicable
emission standards using the fuel
specificed in the subpart. This would
apply if fuel’s effect on emissions is
small enough to allow for using the test
results to show that engines would meet
applicable emission standards with the
specified fuel. Since there are no
appreciable fuel effects on exhaust
emissions between EPA’s E10 test fuel
and LEV III E10 test fuel, we would
expect this approval process to be
straightforward.
We expect this approach of allowing
E10 as an alternative test fuel to
adequately address concerns for the
identified sectors. Many of these
engines have closed-loop fuel controls
that reduce the effect of fuel variables
on exhaust emissions. Many also have
relatively large compliance margins
relative to the standards that apply.
These factors help manufacturers
confidently test with E10 as an
alternative fuel, knowing that they
continue to be liable for meeting
emission standards on the specified E0
test fuel.
EPA has an interest in transitioning
all emission measurements for gasolinefueled engines to an E10 test fuel.
However, modifying the emission
control program by allowing (or
requiring) a complete compliance
demonstration based on an E10 test fuel
would require a more careful
assessment of the fuel effects from the
ethanol added to the test fuel. Since the
ethanol in some cases has significant
effects on HC, NOX, and CO emissions,
we would need to evaluate the resulting
effects on the stringency of the
standards. We would generally expect to
adopt adjusted standards with the
objective of maintaining equivalent
stringency. Developing such alternative
standards for an E10 test fuel would
require a large body of data to
adequately capture the fuel effects on
emissions for all the different classes of
highway motorcycles, for all the
different types of nonroad engines and
vehicles, and for different kinds of
engine technology within the various
PO 00000
Frm 00016
Fmt 4701
Sfmt 4702
sectors. We took this approach for
nonroad spark-ignition engines below
19 kW by adopting alternative CO
standards that apply for testing with
LEV III E10 test fuel (78 FR 36397, June
17, 2013).
Toward that end, we have prepared a
memorandum with a collection of
available emission data from nonroad
engines and highway motorcycles tested
with E0 and E10 test fuels.18 The data
include results from programs
conducted by industry associations,
EPA efforts with Canadian labs, and
other U.S. laboratory data. We solicit
additional emission data to further help
establish the comparison between the
test fuels for different engine types,
applications, and technologies. We also
request comment on the benefits or
concerns with adopting alternative
standards that correspond with a change
to require E10 test fuel for all testing
(both for manufacturers and EPA).
Available information suggests that the
fuel-related emission effects for
technologies across these sectors are
much more complex and varied than we
observed for Small SI engines. Some
technology differences, such as twostroke vs. four-stroke and naturally
aspirated vs. turbocharged, have
relatively consistent and predictable
fuel-related emission effects. However,
some technologies will have fuel-related
emission effects that depend on specific
design strategies. For example,
manufacturers can use electronic
controls to optimize for power, fuel
economy, low-speed torque, or some
other measure of performance. Partial
use of closed-loop control of air-fuel
ratios is one clear example of this, with
the potential to adjust the air-fuel ratio
to different setpoints, or to limit closedloop control only to certain operating
conditions. We request comment on
how best to account for these designspecific engine technologies in
evaluating fuel-related emission effects
for each type of engine.
The emission effects are most
pronounced for CO emissions, but we
are also interested in HC and NOX
emissions. To the extent that NOX
emissions (or HC + NOX emissions)
increase to a degree that affects the
stringency of the standards, we would
consider increasing the numerical level
of the standard to maintain equivalent
stringency.
EPA also specifies test fuels for
evaporative emission testing. The
gasoline test fuel for measuring

permeation emissions from nonroad fuel
tanks and fuel lines is a splash-blended
E10. The is an E0 test fuel that is
blended to reach a 10 percent
concentration of ethanol. The splashblended E10 test fuel is nearly identical
to EPA’s specified E10 test fuel except
for the volatility. EPA’s Tier 3 E10 test
fuel has a nominal volatility of 9 psi
RVP and the splash-blended E10 has a
volatility of about 10 psi RVP.19 We
request comment on amending the
regulation to allow testing with the premixed E10 test fuel with 9 psi RVP
instead of the splash-blended E10 test
fuel with 10 psi. In particular, we
encourage commenters to share any
available data describing how gasoline
volatility affects permeation rates. We
would not want manufacturers to test
with lower fuel volatility if it decreases
permeation rates and allows
manufacturers to use a less effective
control technology. We also request
comment on the level of interest that
manufacturers or testing organizations
would have to be able to use EPA’s premixed E10 test fuel in the near term, or
at any point in the future. We are
concerned about issues related to test
burden for manufacturers needing to
meet standards, but we invite
commenters to share their insights on
these questions of permeation
chemistry. If the final rule includes an
amendment to allow permeation testing
with EPA’s pre-mixed E10 test fuel, we
would also expect to specify that
California ARB’s LEVIII E10 test fuel is
also acceptable for demonstrating
compliance with permeation standards
(see § 1060.505(c)(2)).
A different dynamic applies for
diurnal testing. This measurement
procedure applies for Marine SI fuel
tanks and for some Large SI equipment.
We currently specify an E0 test fuel
with a nominal volatility of 9 psi RVP
for diurnal testing in 40 CFR 1060.525.
The volume of vapor venting during a
diurnal test depends on the volatility of
the test fuel. Changing the ethanol
content of the fuel without changing the
volatility should cause no significant
change in the volume of vapor venting
during the diurnal test. The specified
EPA E10 test fuel has the same volatility
as the E0 test fuel, but it has the added
ethanol. We request comment on
amending the regulation to allow testing
with the specified EPA E10 test fuel
instead of the E0 test fuel. As described
for permeation testing above, we would

(RVP), which generally quantifies a fuel’s
equilibrium vapor pressure at 100 °F. A fuel with

not want manufacturers to use a test fuel
that would decrease vapor pressures
and allow manufacturers to use a less
effective control technology. We also
request comment on the level of interest
that manufacturers or testing
organizations would have to be able to
use EPA’s specified E10 test fuel in the
near term, or at any point in the future.
We specify emission standards and
test procedures for portable fuel
containers in 40 CFR part 59, subpart F.
The test relies on a splash-blended E10
test fuel. California ARB specifies their
LEV III gasoline test fuel for the
analogous procedures in California, but
they allow manufacturers to submit data
instead using EPA’s specified test fuel.
Accordingly, we believe manufacturers
do not face the same burden of needing
to perform duplicate measurements for
the two agencies. We are therefore not
proposing to change the EPA test fuel
for portable fuel containers. However,
we request comment on allowing
manufacturers the option of using EPA’s
specified E10 test fuel to demonstrate
compliance with the combined test for
diurnal and permeation emissions.
B. Removing Obsolete CFR Content
EPA first adopted emission standards
for light-duty motor vehicles and heavyduty highway engines in the 1970s.
Emission standards for the first
categories of nonroad engines started to
apply in the 1990s. Each of these
programs include emission standards
that apply by model year. For most of
these programs over time, engines and
vehicles were subject to increasingly
stringent standards and improved
certification and testing requirements.
All these standards and regulatory
provisions are codified in the Code of
Federal Regulations. As time passes, the
regulations for past model years become
obsolete, but it remains in print until
there is a rulemaking change to remove
it from print. We are proposing in this
rule to remove large portions of this
regulatory content that no longer
applies. The following sections describe
these changes for different sectors.
Note that Section III.D describes
several amendments to emission control
programs for motor vehicles in 40 CFR
parts 85 and 86. These amendments
include several provisions that also
remove obsolete regulatory content.
1. Clean Fuel Fleet Standards (40 CFR
Part 88)
The Clean Air Act Amendments of
1990 included numerical standards for
the Clean Fuel Fleet program that were
intended to encourage innovation and
reduce emissions for fleets of motor
vehicles in certain nonattainment areas
PO 00000
Frm 00017
Fmt 4701
Sfmt 4702
28155
as compared to conventionally fueled
vehicles available at the time. As
originally adopted, those Clean Fuel
Fleet standards were substantially more
stringent than the standards that applied
to vehicles and engines generally.
Now that we have begun
implementing Tier 3 standards in 40
CFR part 86, subpart S, the Clean Fuel
Fleet standards are either less stringent
than or equivalent to the standards that
apply to vehicles and engines generally.
Because the statute continues to require
Clean Fuel Fleet standards for state
clean-fuel vehicle programs, we cannot
simply remove the Clean Fuel Fleet
program from the regulations. Rather,
we are proposing to implement the
Clean Fuel Fleet standards in 40 CFR
part 88 with a compliance option where
vehicles and engines certified to current
standards under 40 CFR part 86 and part
1036 would be deemed to comply with
the Clean Fuel Fleet standards as Ultra
Low-Emission Vehicles. Further, the
Clean Fuel Fleet program as adopted
included labeling requirements for
engine and vehicle manufacturers to
identify compliant engines and vehicles,
and a restriction against including such
engines or vehicles when calculating
emission credits. Both provisions would
also no longer be applicable because of
the earlier mentioned increased
stringency of standards for engines and
vehicles, and under the compliance
option we are proposing. Therefore, we
are also proposing to remove these
regulations. This will give clear
instructions to vehicle and engine
manufacturers as well as states that
continue to have Clean Fuel Fleet
provisions in their State Implementation
Plans or become subject to these
requirements in the future under CAA
sections 182(c)(4)(A) and 246(a).
For states with areas that become
subject to the clean-fuel vehicle program
requirements in the future based on a
new designation as an ozone
nonattainment area, the required state
implementation plan submission for the
program or for a substitute measure is
due within 42 months after the effective
date of an area’s nonattainment
designation. The clean-fuel vehicle
program requirements apply for ozone
nonattainment areas with an initial
designation as Serious, Severe, or
Extreme. For marginal and moderate
ozone nonattainment areas that are
reclassified as Serious, Severe, or
Extreme, the required state
implementation plan submission for the
program or for a substitute measure is
due on the date specified in the EPA
rulemaking finalizing the area’s
reclassification.

Federal Register / Vol. 85, No. 92 / Tuesday, May 12, 2020 / Proposed Rules
The Clean Fuel Fleet program also
depends on vehicle classifications that
include Zero Emission Vehicles and
Inherently Low-Emission Vehicles. We
are therefore preserving these defined
terms in 40 CFR part 88. We are
proposing to consider as Zero Emission
Vehicles all electric vehicles and any
vehicle that does not emit NOX, PM, HC,
CO, or formaldehyde (including
evaporative emissions). We are
proposing to simplify the definition of
Inherently Low-Emission Vehicles to
mean any certified vehicle that is
designed to not vent fuel vapors to the
atmosphere.
2. Legacy Nonroad Standards (40 CFR
Parts 89 Through 94)
The 1990 amendments to the Clean
Air Act authorized EPA to set emission
standards for nonroad engines. This led
to a series of rulemakings to adopt
emission control programs for different
nonroad sectors. From 1994 through
1999, EPA adopted these emission
control programs in 40 CFR parts 89, 90,
91, 92, and 94 (all part of Subchapter C).
Starting in 2002, EPA adopted
emission standards for additional
nonroad emission control programs in a
new subchapter, which allowed for

Marine spark-ignition engines ............................................................................
Locomotives and locomotive engines ...............................................................

As a result of this migration, engine
manufacturers have not certified
engines under the legacy parts for the
last 5–10 years. Removing these legacy
parts reduces the cost to the Agency and
prevents confusion for readers who
think that the provisions still apply.
While EPA’s engine certification
programs don’t rely on these obsolete
provisions, the new programs refer to
the legacy parts for some specific
provisions. For example, the new
standard-setting part for each type of
engine/equipment allows manufacturers
to continue to certify carryover engine
families based on test data from
procedures specified in the legacy parts.
We are not proposing to discontinue
further use of carryover data from
engines originally certified under the
legacy parts. On the other hand, this
provision will gradually sunset itself as
manufacturers update engine designs
and perform new testing for their engine
families to meet current standards.
Considering California’s initiative to
disallow carryover for nonroad sparkignition engines starting in model year
2021, we request comment on taking a
more direct approach that would sunset
carryover based on testing performed
according to the legacy parts.
Another example of relying on the
legacy parts in the new regulations is
emission credits generated under the
legacy parts. In most cases, current
programs either disallow using those
credits for certification, or they allow it
without keeping separate accounts for
credits generated under the legacy parts.
We are proposing no changes where
credits from legacy parts are either
unavailable or indistinguishable from
VerDate Sep<11>2014

Jkt 250001
improved organization and
harmonization across sectors. We
codified these new standards and
related provisions in 40 CFR parts 1048,
1051, 1065, and 1068 (all part of
Subchapter U). Since then, we have
migrated the ‘‘legacy’’ emission control
programs from Subchapter C to
Subchapter U. In each case, the
migration corresponded to new
emission standards and substantially
updated compliance and testing
provisions. This applies for the
following sectors:

currently generated credits. One
exception is for land-based nonroad
diesel engines certified under 40 CFR
parts 89 and 1039. Current provisions in
§ 1039.740 allow for limited use of Tier
2 and Tier 3 credits from part 89 for
certifying Tier 4 engines. However,
these constraints are not time-limited.
Now that the Tier 4 standards have been
in place for several years, we would be
interested in simplifying the credit
accounting by sunsetting these
provisions. We therefore request
comment on the extent to which any
manufacturers might rely on continued
use of Tier 2 or Tier 3 emission credits
for certifying their land-based nonroad
diesel Tier 4 engines.
We are also aware that other federal
and state regulations and compliance
programs include numerous references
to 40 CFR parts 89 through 94. To
address this, we are proposing to
replace the full text of regulations in the
legacy parts with a paragraph describing
the historical scope and purpose for
each part. The remaining paragraph also
directs readers to the new regulations
that apply in Subchapter U, and clarifies
how the regulatory requirements
transition to the new content. As an
example, the statute and regulations
prohibit tampering with certified
engines throughout an engine’s lifetime,
even if the original text describing that
prohibition no longer resides in its
original location in the Code of Federal
Regulations.
We are also proposing to capture the
emission standards from the legacy
parts as reference material in an
appendix in the appropriate CFR parts.
This allows for readily citing the

historical standards in our own
emission control programs, and in any
other federal or state regulations or
compliance materials that depend on
citing emission standards that are no
longer current for purposes of gaining
EPA certification as part of our nonroad
emission control program.
In addition to removing references to
the legacy parts, we are taking the
opportunity to remove additional
obsolete content from the newer
regulations. Most of these changes were
adopted to address temporary concerns
as part of transitioning to new standards
or other new requirements. We adopted
these changes in isolated regulatory
sections as ‘‘interim provisions.’’ Most
of these interim provisions have been
obsolete for several years.20
References to the legacy parts are
especially common for stationary
engines EPA regulates under 40 CFR
part 60, subpart IIII and subpart JJJJ. The
emission standards for stationary
engines in many cases rely on current or
past nonroad emission standards in 40
CFR parts 89, 90, and 94. Including all
the iterations of these emission
standards as reference material allows
us to preserve the existing set of
standards and requirements for

especially 40 CFR 1027.105, 1033.150, 1042.145,
1045.145, 1048.145, 1051.145, 1054.145, and

stationary engines. The proposed
regulations include numerous
amendments to 40 CFR part 60 to
change regulatory cites from the legacy
parts to the new regulatory parts in
Subchapter U.
Most of the changes for stationary
engines in 40 CFR part 60 are intended
to update references without changing
standards or other provisions. We are
proposing two more substantive
changes. First, we are proposing to
allow manufacturers of emergency
stationary compression-ignition internal
combustion engines and stationary
emergency spark-ignition engines to
certify using assigned deterioration
factors. Since these emergency engines
generally serve in standby status in
anticipation of emergency situations,
they often have lifetime operation that
is much less extensive than nonemergency engines. Assigned
deterioration factors would allow
manufacturers to demonstrate the
durability of emission controls without
performing testing that might otherwise
exceed the operating life of the engines
being certified.
Second, stationary spark-ignition
engines are currently subject to
emission standards and certification
procedures adopted under 40 CFR part
90 for Phase 1 engines. Revising the
requirements for these engines to
instead rely on the certification
procedures in 40 CFR part 1054 requires
that we identify the Phase 1 standards
as not including the following
provisions that apply for Phase 3
engines (as noted in the proposed
regulatory text for Appendix I of part
1054):
• The useful life and corresponding
deterioration factors.
• Evaporative emission standards.
• Altitude adjustments.
• Warranty assurance provisions in
§ 1054.120(f).
• Emission-related installation
instructions.
• Bonding.
C. Certification Fees (40 CFR Part 1027)
EPA is making several minor changes
in 40 CFR part 1027 to update the
procedures and align the instructions
with current practices. None of these
changes involve change or
reconsideration of fee policies. We are
proposing the following changes:
• Correcting the name of the
compliance program.
• Replacing the schedule of fees from
2005 with the fees that apply for
applications submitted in 2020.
• Revising the timeline for
announcing adjusted fees for the
upcoming year from a January 31
VerDate Sep<11>2014
22:43 May 11, 2020
Jkt 250001
deadline to a March 31 deadline. This
will allow for a more orderly process of
calculating the new fees using the
information from the previous year.
• Correcting the equation for nonevaporative certificates to no longer
apply the inflation adjustment to
operating costs. This corrects a
publishing error that mistakenly
introduced parentheses in the equation.
• Correcting the internet address for
the consumer price index used for
inflation adjustments.
• Removing the sample calculation
for determining fees for 2006.
• Revising submission and payment
instructions to refer only to electronic
forms and transactions through
www.Pay.gov.
• Clarifying that deficient filings must
be resolved before the end of the model
year, and that the time limit for
requesting refunds applies equally to
deficient filings.
D. Additional Amendments for Motor
Vehicles and Motor Vehicle Engines (40
CFR Parts 85 and 86)
Motor vehicles and motor vehicle
engines are subject to emission
standards and certification requirements
under 40 CFR part 86. This applies for
light-duty vehicles, light-duty trucks,
heavy-duty vehicles and engines, and
highway motorcycles. There are
additional compliance provisions in 40
CFR part 85. We are proposing the
following amendments to these
provisions:
• Part 85: We are amending the
provisions for importation, exemptions,
and model year to clarify that they no
longer apply for heavy-duty engines.
Those engines are already subject to
analogous provisions under 40 CFR part
1068. While the two sets of provisions
are largely the same, we want to avoid
the ambiguity of having overlapping
requirements. One aspect of this
migration involves discontinuing the
provisions that apply for Independent
Commercial Importers for heavy-duty
engines. No one has used these
provisions for several years, and we
have no reason to believe anyone will
start to use these provisions.
• Part 85: We are making several
minor corrections to (1) refer to
provisions in 40 CFR part 1068 related
to confidential business information and
hearing procedures, and (2) clarify
organization names and addresses for
submitting information.
• Part 85, Subpart O: This subpart set
emission standards for 1993 and older
model year urban buses undergoing
engine rebuilding. We have confirmed
with the American Public
Transportation Association that there
PO 00000
Frm 00019
Fmt 4701
Sfmt 4702
28157
are very few such urban buses still
operating, and that none of them will
have engine rebuilds. We are therefore
proposing to remove this content from
the CFR.
• § 85.1902(b)(2): We are clarifying
that defect-reporting requirements
under paragraph (b)(2) apply for defects
related to noncompliance with
greenhouse gas emission standards, not
criteria emission standards. This
corrects an earlier amendment that
inadvertently described the provisions
as applying to noncompliance with any
kind of emission standard. Defects
related to criteria emission standards are
covered by § 85.1902(b)(1).
• §§ 86.113–04, 86.213, and 86.513:
Adding optional reference procedures
for measuring aromatic and olefin
content of E0 gasoline test fuel. These
changes align with the reference
procedures for EPA’s Tier 3 E10
gasoline test fuel at 40 CFR 1065.710(b).
These changes are needed because
material limitations prevent laboratories
from using the procedures in ASTM
D1319. This change also applies for the
E0 gasoline test fuel specified in 40 CFR
1065.710(c),
• § 86.129–00: Revising the
description of test weight basis to be
loaded vehicle weight for all light-duty
vehicles and light-duty trucks. This is a
correction to align the regulation with
current practice.
• § 86.130–96: We are correcting the
reference to a testing flowchart that was
moved to 40 CFR 1066.801.
• §§ 86.401–97 and 86.413–78: We
are removing obsolete sections to
prevent confusion.
• §§ 86.419–2006 and 86.427–78: We
are revising the table with service
accumulation parameters to clarify how
to perform testing separately for Class I–
A and Class I–B, rather than treating
them as a single class.
• §§ 86.435–78 and 86.436–78: We
are correcting references to the
regulation to clarify that a motorcycle is
compliant if measured test results are at
or below the standards.
• § 86.531–78: We are adding
instruction to seal exhaust system leaks
as needed before testing highway
motorcycles. The proposed amendment
also applies for testing off-highway
motorcycles and all-terrain vehicles
under 40 CFR part 1051. This same
instruction also applies for light-duty
vehicle testing under 40 CFR
1066.110(b)(1)(vi).
• Part 86, Subpart P: The idle test
procedures for spark-ignition engine
and vehicles are no longer needed for
certification or other compliance
demonstrations. We are therefore
E:\FR\FM\12MYP2.SGM
12MYP2
jbell on DSKJLSW7X2PROD with PROPOSALS2
28158
Federal Register / Vol. 85, No. 92 / Tuesday, May 12, 2020 / Proposed Rules
proposing to remove this content from
the CFR.
• Part 86, Subpart Q: Engine
technology has advanced to include
internal feedback controls and
compensation to allow for operation at
a wide range of altitudes. The
certification requirements related to
altitude adjustments are therefore
mostly or completely obsolete. We are
proposing a simplified version of the
altitude provisions for highway
motorcycles at 40 CFR 86.408–78(c) and
(d) in case there are some very small
motorcycles that require adjustment for
altitude. We request comment on the
need for these proposed provisions.
• § 86.1803: We are revising the
definition for heavy-duty vehicle, with
a conforming revision to the definition
for light-duty truck, to clarify that the
sole regulatory criterion for whether a
complete vehicle is a heavy-duty
vehicle for purposes of the regulation is
whether its gross vehicle weight rating
is above 8,500 pounds. The current
approach remains unchanged for
incomplete vehicles; that is, heavy-duty
vehicles also include incomplete
vehicles even if their gross vehicle
weight rating is at or below 8,500
pounds, if their curb weight is above
6,000 pounds or if their basic vehicle
frontal area is greater than 45 square
feet. The proposed revisions are
intended to (1) prevent light-duty trucks
from becoming heavy-duty vehicles in a
configuration involving a hybrid
powertrain due to the extra weight
related to energy storage and (2) avoid
an incentive for manufacturers to add
vehicle weight or frontal area simply to
avoid the standards that apply for lightduty vehicles. In these cases under the
current definition, the curb weight or
frontal area would artificially increase
to the point that the vehicle would
qualify as a heavy-duty vehicle, even
though it otherwise has the
characteristics of a light-duty truck. This
same change is not necessary for
incomplete vehicles because certifying
manufacturers have the option to select
the appropriate vehicle classification for
those vehicles. Note that the proposed
change applies only for future
certification; any certified heavy-duty
vehicle that would no longer fit the
description will not be affected by the
amended definition.
• § 86.1810: We are clarifying the
certification responsibilities for cases
involving secondary vehicle
manufacturers that modify a certified
vehicle and recertify the modified
vehicle to the standards that apply for
a new vehicle under 40 CFR part 86,
subpart S. Since the original certifying
manufacturer accounts for these
VerDate Sep<11>2014
22:43 May 11, 2020
Jkt 250001
vehicles in their fleet average
calculations for criteria exhaust
emissions and evaporative emissions,
we believe these secondary vehicle
manufacturers should not be required to
repeat those fleet average calculations
for the affected vehicles. This would
depend on the secondary vehicle
manufacturer meeting all the same bin
standards and family emission limits as
specified by the original certifying
manufacturer.
• § 86.1811–17: The Federal Register
mistakenly published a reference to the
Tier 3 p.m. standard. Since we intended
for the standard to apply at all times, we
are amending the regulation to properly
refer to that as the Tier 3 p.m. standard.
• § 86.1813–01: We are clarifying that
electric vehicles and fuel cell vehicles
are not subject to evaporative and
refueling emission standards. The
preamble to the final rule adopting the
light-duty Tier 3 standards stated that
these emission standards apply only for
volatile fuels, but we did not include a
clear statement excluding electric
vehicles and fuel cell vehicles in the
regulations (79 FR 23514, April 28,
2014).
• § 86.1818–12: We are clarifying that
manufacturers calculate the in-use CO2
standard using the appropriate test
result for carbon-related exhaust
emissions after adjustment with the
deterioration factor to account for
durability effects. In many cases, the
deterioration factor is 0 (additive) or 1
(multiplicative), in which case the
deterioration factor does not change the
calculated in-use CO2 standard.
• § 86.1838–01: We are restoring text
that was inadvertently removed in an
earlier amendment. The restored text
specifies which mileage provisions from
§ 86.1845 do not apply for small-volume
manufacturers doing in-use verification
testing.
• § 86.1868: We are adopting detailed
provisions describing how reduced air
conditioning test requirements apply for
electric vehicles and plug-in hybrid
electric vehicles. These provisions are
consistent with current practice
described in EPA guidance. We are also
proposing to specify that plug-in hybrid
electric vehicles qualify for relief from
AC17 testing, like electric vehicles, if
they have an adjusted all electric range
of 60 miles or more and they do not
need engine power for cabin cooling
during vehicle operation represented by
the AC17 procedure. This is intended to
include vehicles for which an owner
can typically expect to avoid using the
engine for daily commuting, including
commutes on a hot summer day.
Finally, we are proposing to clarify that
manufacturers do not need to make a
PO 00000
Frm 00020
Fmt 4701
Sfmt 4702
demonstration to qualify for air
conditioning efficiency credits for pure
electric vehicles or for plug-in hybrid
electric vehicles, provided that those
vehicles qualify for waived AC17 testing
as described above. This is due to the
complexity of quantifying credit
quantities in grams CO2 per mile for
driving without engine power. We are
also proposing to specify that AC17
testing with plug-in hybrid electric
vehicles, if required, always be done in
charge-sustaining mode to avoid the
confounding effect of intermittent
engine operation during the test.
Highway motorcycles are currently
subject to emission standards based on
emission measurements using the same
duty cycle that applies for cars and
trucks. The World Forum for
Harmonisation of Vehicle Regulations
(known as WP.29) adopted the World
Motorcycle Test Cycle (WMTC) with the
intent of establishing a single,
harmonized test cycle that could be
used for meeting emission standards in
all countries. All European countries,
along with some additional countries in
Asia and South America, have adopted
the WMTC. California ARB may also
pursue regulation to adopt WMTC as
part of its emission control program for
highway motorcycles. We request
comment on adopting the WMTC as a
means of certifying highway
motorcycles to EPA emission standards.
We also request comment on any
appropriate adjustment to the exhaust
emission standards that apply for
highway motorcycles to ensure
equivalent stringency for testing with
the WMTC.
E. Additional Amendments for
Locomotives (40 CFR Part 1033)
EPA is updating 40 CFR part 1033 to
remove references to specific content in
40 CFR part 92, as described in Section
III.B.2. In addition, we are proposing the
following minor corrections and
changes:
• § 1033.150: Remove the interim
provisions that no longer apply. This
leaves paragraph (e) as the only
remaining paragraph in this section.
• § 1033.225: Clarify that amending
an application for certification applies
prospectively. In particular, amending
an application does not apply for
actions taken previously.
• § 1033.255: Clarify that doing
anything to make information false or
incomplete after submitting an
application for certification is the same
as submitting false or incomplete
information. For example, if there is a
change to any corporate information or
engine parameters described in the
manufacturer’s application for
E:\FR\FM\12MYP2.SGM
12MYP2
Federal Register / Vol. 85, No. 92 / Tuesday, May 12, 2020 / Proposed Rules
jbell on DSKJLSW7X2PROD with PROPOSALS2
certification, the manufacturer must
amend the application to include the
new information.
• § 1033.255: Clarify that voiding
certificates for a failure to comply with
recordkeeping or reporting requirements
will be limited to the certificates that
relate to the particular recordkeeping or
reporting failure.
• § 1033.601: Correct references to
specific provisions in 40 CFR part 1068.
• § 1033.701: Correct a paragraph
reference.
• § 1033.740: Remove the reference to
emission credits from part 92. There is
no need for this, since the records
related to credit accounting do not
identify credits as being from part 92 or
part 1033. Any credits generated under
part 92 will continue to be available for
certifying locomotives under part 1033.
• § 1033.901: Name the date, January
1, 2000, that marked the start of the
original locomotive emission standards,
rather than describing the date with
reference to publication of the original
final rule and its effective date (18978
FR 63, April 16, 1998).
• § 1033.925: Removing text in
paragraph (e) that is already in
paragraph (b) of the same section.
F. Additional Amendments for LandBased Nonroad Diesel Engines (40 CFR
Part 1039)
EPA’s emission standards and
certification requirements for landbased nonroad compression-ignition
(CI) engines are identified in 40 CFR
part 1039. We refer to these as Nonroad
CI engines. Several changes to 40 CFR
part 1039 that apply broadly are
described above. Specifically, Section
III.B.2 describes how we are removing
regulatory content related to the Tier 1,
Tier 2, and Tier 3 standards originally
adopted in 40 CFR part 89. We are
accordingly amending 40 CFR part 1039
to remove references to 40 CFR part 89
that no longer apply.
This section describes additional
proposed amendments for EPA’s
Nonroad CI program:
• § 1039.20: Remove the option to use
a branded name instead of the engine
manufacturer’s corporate name for
uncertified stationary engines. Since
these engines are not certified, there is
no way for EPA to document any
relationship between the engine
manufacturer and the branded
company. We also are not aware of
anyone using this provision.
• § 1039.20: Revise the label
statement for stationary engines covered
by § 1039.20 to avoid references to
specific parts of the CFR. This is
intended to prevent confusion. We can
approve continued use of labels with
VerDate Sep<11>2014
22:43 May 11, 2020
Jkt 250001
the older previous statement under the
provisions of § 1039.135(f). This may be
needed, for example, if manufacturers
have remaining labels in their
inventory.
• § 1039.101: Add a table entry to
clarify how standards apply for engines
with maximum engine power above 560
kW. The current rendering in the Code
of Federal Regulations can be
misleading.
• § 1039.102: Correct the heading of
Table 6 to include engines at or below
560 kW. The table was published in a
way that inadvertently excluded 560 kW
engines.
• § 1039.135: Discontinue the
equipment labeling requirement to state
that engines must be refueled with ultra
low-sulfur diesel fuel (ULSD). Since inuse diesel fuel for these engines must
universally meet ULSD requirements,
there is no longer a benefit to including
this label information.
• § 1039.205: Add text to clarify how
engine manufacturers should identify
information in the application for
certification related to engine diagnostic
systems.
• § 1039.225: Clarify that amending
an application for certification applies
prospectively. In particular, amending
an application does not apply for
actions taken previously.
• § 1039.255: Clarify that doing
anything to make information false or
incomplete after submitting an
application for certification is the same
as submitting false or incomplete
information. For example, if there is a
change to any corporate information or
engine parameters described in the
manufacturer’s application for
certification, the manufacturer must
amend the application to include the
new information.
• § 1039.255: Clarify that voiding
certificates for a failure to comply with
recordkeeping or reporting requirements
will be limited to the certificates that
relate to the particular recordkeeping or
reporting failure.
• § 1039.740: Remove the reference to
emission credits from part 89. There is
no need for this since the records
related to credit accounting do not
identify credits as being from part 89 or
part 1039.
• § 1039.801: Revise the definition of
‘‘low-hour’’ to state that engines at or
below 560 kW should qualify as ‘‘lowhour’’ only up to 125 hours, rather than
300 hours. This is intended to ensure
that engine’s tested to establish the lowhour emission result for an engine
family are properly represented as new
engines that have not started to
experience deterioration of emission
controls. This does not preclude
PO 00000
Frm 00021
Fmt 4701
Sfmt 4702
28159
continued testing beyond 125 hours, but
it would prevent manufacturers from
planning test programs that extend well
beyond 125 hours. This change aligns
with the provisions that already apply
for marine diesel engines under 40 CFR
part 1042. We request comment on
instead specifying the 125-hour
threshold only for engines not expected
to use NOX aftertreatment; this would
cover engines up to 56 kW under 40
CFR part 1039, and engines up to 600
kW under 40 CFR part 1042.
• § 1039.801: Revise the definition of
‘‘small-volume engine manufacturer’’ to
remove the requirement to have
certified engines in the United States
before 2003. This limitation was related
to the transition to meeting the Tier 4
standards. Now that those phase-in
provisions have expired, the remaining
provisions relate to reporting CH4 and
N2O emissions and using assigned
deterioration factors. We believe these
provisions can reasonably be applied to
start-up small businesses meeting the
Tier 4 standards.
Finally, in addition to the proposed
amendments to 40 CFR part 1039
discussed above, we are requesting
comment on the production limits for
the alternate FEL provision in 40 CFR
1039.101(d)(2). In particular, we request
comment on whether the NOX FEL cap
should be increased.
G. Additional Amendments for Marine
Diesel Engines (40 CFR Parts 1042 and
1043)
EPA’s emission standards and
certification requirements for marine
diesel engines under the Clean Air Act
are set out in 40 CFR part 1042.
Emission standards and related fuel
requirements that apply internationally
are set out in 40 CFR part 1043.
Several proposed changes to 40 CFR
part 1042 that apply more broadly are
described above. Specifically, Section
III.B.2 describes how we are proposing
to remove regulatory content related to
the Tier 1 and Tier 2 standards
originally adopted in 40 CFR part 94.
We are accordingly proposing to amend
40 CFR part 1042 to remove references
to 40 CFR part 94 that no longer apply.
This section describes additional
proposed amendments for our marine
diesel engine program.
1. Marine Replacement Engine
Exemption
We are proposing several adjustments
to the replacement engine exemption in
§ 1042.615. First, we are clarifying the
regulatory determination that applies for
cases involving new replacement
engines that are normally subject to Tier
4 standards. In the 2008 final rule to
E:\FR\FM\12MYP2.SGM
12MYP2
jbell on DSKJLSW7X2PROD with PROPOSALS2
28160
Federal Register / Vol. 85, No. 92 / Tuesday, May 12, 2020 / Proposed Rules
adopt the Tier 4 standards, we finalized
a determination ‘‘that Tier 4 engines
equipped with aftertreatment
technology to control either NOX or PM
are not required for use as replacement
engines for engines from previous tiers
in accordance with this regulatory
replacement engine provision.’’ The
preamble to that final rule made it clear
that the determination was limited to
‘‘Tier 4 marine diesel replacement
engines that comply with the Tier 4
standards through the use of catalytic
aftertreatment systems.’’ (73 FR 37157)
However, that limitation was not copied
into the regulatory text. Recent events,
including the certification of some
engines to Tier 4 standards without
aftertreatment, make it necessary to
revise this replacement engine
regulation to clarify that EPA originally
intended for the determination to apply
only in cases where the Tier 4 engine
relies on aftertreatment technology, as
indicated in the 2008 final rule. The
rule also stated that ‘‘[s]hould an engine
manufacturer develop a Tier 4
compliant engine solution that does not
require the use of such technology, then
this automatic determination will not
apply.’’
Second, we propose to modify the
requirement that engine manufacturers
notify EPA after shipping exempt
replacement engines. § 1042.615(a)
requires an engine manufacturer to send
EPA notification 30 days after shipping
an exempt engine to demonstrate that
the selected engine was the cleanest
available for the given installation. We
indicated that ‘‘[t]hese records will be
used by EPA to evaluate whether engine
manufacturers are properly making the
feasibility determination and applying
the replacement engine provisions.’’ We
also indicated that we expected engine
manufacturers to examine ‘‘not just
engine dimensions and weight but other
pertinent vessel characteristics such as
drive shafts, reduction gears, cooling
systems, exhaust and ventilation
systems, and propeller shafts; electrical
systems; . . . and such other ancillary
systems and vessel equipment that
would affect the choice of an engine.’’
While engine manufacturers have
submitted these reports, the information
provided has not supported our original
objective. Specifically, the reports vary
widely in information provided but at
the same time are too case-specific.
Therefore, we are proposing to require
manufacturers to submit a single annual
report that is due at the same time as the
general requirement for reporting on
replacement engines under 40 CFR
1068.240. The annual report would
include the information described in
VerDate Sep<11>2014
22:43 May 11, 2020
Jkt 250001
our 2008 rule for all the affected engines
and vessels. This change would provide
a predictable schedule for EPA to
review the submitted information. This
would also allow EPA to standardize the
format and substance of the reported
information. Manufacturers would
benefit from submitting a consistent set
of information in an annual submission
for all their replacement engine
information.
Third, we are proposing to revise the
regulatory instructions for submitting
replacement engine reports under
§ 1042.615. The number of exempt
replacement engines would be limited
to those that are shipped to boat owners
or designated for a specific vessel.
Engine manufacturers may produce and
ship exempt replacement engines (with
per-cylinder displacement up to 7 liters)
without making the specified
demonstrations, as allowed under 40
CFR 1068.240(c), but manufacturers
may produce only a limited number of
those ‘‘untracked’’ engines in a given
year. Those untracked replacement
engines are covered by the reporting
requirements that apply under
§ 1068.240 since the tracked exemption
under § 1042.615 and § 1068.240(b) does
not allow for shipping engines to
distributors without identifying a
specific installation and making the
necessary demonstrations for that
installation. We are proposing to take a
streamlined approach for Tier 3 engines
since the demonstration for those
engines consists of affirming EPA’s
regulatory determination that no
suitable Tier 4 engines (without
aftertreatment) are available for
replacement. We do not expect engines
with per-cylinder engine displacement
below 7 liters to be able to meet Tier 4
standards without aftertreatment
devices. As a result, Tier 3 replacement
engines are limited only in that they
may not be used to replace engines that
were certified to Tier 4 standards. In
this early stage of implementing Tier 4
standards, we expect it to be several
years before Tier 4 engines need
replacement. On the other hand, the
gradual turnover of the fleet will make
Tier 4 replacements more common,
which may in turn decrease the demand
for Tier 3 replacement engines. We
request comment on applying this
streamlined approach for Tier 3
replacement engines only through 2025
to reflect this expected development.
Finally, we propose to clarify that the
determination related to Tier 4
replacement engines applies differently
for engines that become new based on
vessel modifications. Under the
definition of ‘‘new vessel’’ in
§ 1042.901, modification of an existing
PO 00000
Frm 00022
Fmt 4701
Sfmt 4702
vessel may cause the vessel to become
‘‘new’’ if the vessel modifications cause
the vessel’s assessed value to at least
double. In this case, all engines installed
on the vessel are subject to standards for
the model year based on the date of
vessel modifications. Since the effective
dates of the Tier 4 standards, we have
learned that there may be circumstances
in which vessel modifications may be
substantial enough to qualify a vessel as
‘‘new,’’ but the installation of new Tier
4 engines may not be practical or
feasible without cost-prohibitive
additional vessel modifications. For
example, a vessel owner may want to
make a substantial upgrade to an older
vessel, including engine replacement
with a much lower-emitting engine. If
the upgrade doubles the assessed value
of the vessel, this would trigger a need
for all installed or replacement engines
above 600 kW to be certified to Tier 4
standards. We have learned that such a
project may become cost-prohibitive
based on the additional vessel
modifications needed to accommodate
the Tier 4 engine, which could cause the
vessel to continue operating in the
higher-emitting configuration. To
address this scenario, we are proposing
to allow the replacement engine
exemption for certain vessels that
become new because of modifications,
subject to a set of conditions.
Specifically, the exemption would
apply only with EPA’s advance
approval based on a demonstration that
the installation of a Tier 4 engine would
require significant vessel redesign that
is infeasible or impractical. EPA’s
assessment may account for the extent
of the modifications already planned for
the project. EPA may approve
installation of Tier 3 engines instead of
Tier 4 engines for qualifying vessels.
Recreational engines and commercial
engines below 600 kW are not subject to
Tier 4 standards. As a result, if a vessel
becomes new through modification, it
should be reasonable to expect such
new engines to be certified to Tier 3
standards rather than being eligible for
the replacement engine exemption.
Vessel modifications may also involve
Category 3 engines, which are subject to
Tier 3 standards. Because these engines
and vessels are so large, we believe the
exemption provisions described above
for vessels that become new as a result
of modifications are not needed to
accommodate Tier 2 standards instead
of Tier 3 standards. However, we
request comment on applying the
exemption provisions for this
circumstance as described above for
Category 1 and Category 2 engines.
We request comment on all aspects of
the proposed amendments to the
E:\FR\FM\12MYP2.SGM
12MYP2
Federal Register / Vol. 85, No. 92 / Tuesday, May 12, 2020 / Proposed Rules
jbell on DSKJLSW7X2PROD with PROPOSALS2
replacement engine exemption for
marine diesel engines.
2. Provisions Related to On-Off Controls
for Marine Engines
EPA adopted the current set of
emissions standards for Category 3
marine diesel engines in 2010 (75 FR
22932; April 30, 2010). The Tier 3
standards include provisions allowing
engine manufacturers to design their
engines with control systems that allow
an engine to meet the Tier 3 standards
while operating in U.S. waters,
including the North American Emission
Control Area and the U.S. Caribbean Sea
Emission Control Area (ECAs), and the
less stringent Tier 2 standards while
operating outside of U.S. waters. We
refer to this design strategy as ‘‘on-off
control.’’ These provisions reflect the
geographic nature of the NOX engine
standards contained in Regulation 13,
MARPOL Annex VI.
Engine manufacturers have raised
questions about the meaning of the
regulatory provision at § 1042.101 that
requires Category 3 engines to ‘‘comply
fully with the Tier 2 standards when the
Tier 3 emission controls are disabled.’’
This was intended to incorporate the
‘‘on-off controls’’ allowed under
MARPOL Annex VI for the IMO Tier III
NOX limits. The HC and CO standards
for Category 3 engines apply equally for
EPA’s Tier 2 and Tier 3 standards
adopted under the Clean Air Act, so
there should be no question that those
standards apply even if NOX controls
are disabled. While 40 CFR 1042.104
includes a PM requirement, it is a
reporting requirement only. The only
other ‘‘standard’’ for Category 3 engines
in 40 CFR part 1042 is the requirement
related to mode caps in § 1042.104(c).
The mode caps serve as separate
emission standards for each test point in
the duty cycle used for certifying the
engines. The 2010 final rule describes
how the mode caps are necessary for
proper implementation of the Tier 3
standards for SCR-equipped engines (75
FR 22932). Since Category 3 engines
with SCR systems would generally
comply with the Tier 2 NOX standard in
the ‘‘disabled’’ configuration without
SCR, we believe there would be no
benefit to applying the mode caps as a
part of the Tier 2 configuration for these
Tier 3 engines with on-off controls. We
are therefore proposing to clarify that
the mode caps are associated only with
the Tier 3 NOX standards. This
approach is consistent with the on-off
control provisions adopted under
MARPOL Annex VI.
The regulation also allows for on-off
controls for NOX for auxiliary engines
used on vessels powered by Category 3
VerDate Sep<11>2014
22:43 May 11, 2020
Jkt 250001
engines. More broadly, § 1402.650(d)
allows those engines to be certified to
MARPOL Annex VI standards instead of
being certified to EPA’s emission
standards under 40 CFR part 1042. The
regulation as originally written
describes how these engines must
comply with EPA’s Tier 3 and Tier 4
standards in the same way that Category
3 engines must comply with EPA’s Tier
2 and Tier 3 standards. However, since
auxiliary engines installed on Category
3 vessels are certified to MARPOL
Annex VI standards instead of EPA’s
emission standards, the regulation
should describe how these auxiliary
engines must meet the IMO Tier II and
IMO Tier III NOX standards to comply
with the on-off control provisions under
§ 1042.115(g). These requirements
related to the EIAPP certificates for
engines with on-off controls are
addressed under MARPOL Annex VI
and 40 CFR part 1043.
3. Miscellaneous Marine Diesel
Amendments
EPA is proposing to make several
additional changes across 40 CFR part
1042 to correct errors, to add
clarification, and to make adjustments
based on lessons learned from
implementing these regulatory
provisions. Specifically, EPA is
proposing the following:
• § 1042.101: Revise the instruction
for specifying a longer useful life. The
regulation as originally adopted states
that engine design, advertising, and
marketing may equally serve as the basis
for establishing a longer useful life. We
would not expect manufacturers to
specify a longer useful life based only
on advertising and marketing claims.
The proposed amendment emphasizes
that design life is the basis for
specifying a longer useful life, with the
further explanation that the
recommended overhaul interval can be
understood, together with advertising
and marketing materials and other
relevant factors, to properly represent an
engine’s design life.
• § 1042.101: The Federal Register
mistakenly published references to Tier
3 PM standards and Tier 4 PM
standards. Since we intended for those
standards to apply at all times, we are
amending the regulation to properly
refer to those as Tier 3 PM standards
and Tier 4 PM standards.
• § 1042.115: Revise the provision
related to on-off controls to clarify that
we have designated NOX Emission
Control Areas (ECAs) for U.S. waters.
We no longer need to reference a
possible future ECA. We propose to use
the U.S. ECA boundaries to establish the
area in which engines with on-off
PO 00000
Frm 00023
Fmt 4701
Sfmt 4702
28161
controls for aftertreatment-based
standards need to be fully operational.
• § 1042.125: Add maintenance
requirements for fuel-water separator
cartridges or elements as an additional
example of maintenance that is not
emission-related. This aligns with the
maintenance specifications for landbased nonroad diesel engines in 40 CFR
part 1039.
• § 1042.135: Revise the labeling
instruction for engines installed in
domestic-only vessels to clarify that it
applies only for engines above 130 kW,
and that it applies equally for
commercial and recreational vessels.
These changes both align the EPA
regulations to more closely align with
the international standards under
MARPOL Annex VI.
• § 1042.145: Add a provision
allowing more flexible marine
installation of engines meeting
standards for land-based nonroad
manufacturers. The regulation as
originally drafted allows manufacturers
to install certified land-based nonroad
engines in marine vessels. This is
straightforward for recreational engines
and for engines at or above 600 kW
because the emission standards from the
two programs are nearly identical.
Commercial marine engines below 600
kW are subject to Tier 3 standards,
while the comparable land-based
nonroad engines are subject to more
stringent Tier 4 standards. This makes
the intended flexibility provision
impractical for these engines. We are
proposing to address that by allowing
manufacturers to use the flexibility for
land-based nonroad engines that were
certified to the Tier 3 emission
standards in an earlier model year. Note
that land-based nonroad engines below
37 kW and above 560 kW were never
subject to Tier 3 emission standards, so
this proposed provision would not
apply to them. Those land-based
nonroad engines were subject to Tier 2
standards, which are substantially less
stringent than the marine Tier 3
standards for NOX + HC or PM (or both).
The detailed compliance provisions for
these engines are described in 40 CFR
1068.265.
• § 1042.225: Clarify that amending
an application for certification applies
prospectively. In particular, amending
an application does not apply for
actions taken previously.
• § 1042.255: Clarify that doing
anything to make information false or
incomplete after submitting an
application for certification is the same
as submitting false or incomplete
information. For example, if there is a
change to any corporate information or
engine parameters described in the
E:\FR\FM\12MYP2.SGM
12MYP2
jbell on DSKJLSW7X2PROD with PROPOSALS2
28162
Federal Register / Vol. 85, No. 92 / Tuesday, May 12, 2020 / Proposed Rules
manufacturer’s application for
certification, the manufacturer must
amend the application to include the
new information.
• § 1042.255: Clarify that voiding
certificates for a failure to comply with
recordkeeping or reporting requirements
will be limited to the certificates that
relate to the particular recordkeeping or
reporting failure.
• § 1042.302: For emission testing
during sea trials for Category 3 engines
with on-off controls, allow
manufacturers the flexibility to omit
testing in Tier 2 mode if they do not
need aftertreatment to meet the Tier 2
standards. We are most interested in
compliance with the Tier 3 standards,
since those controls are active anytime
vessels are operating within ECA
boundaries. System design and
calibration with aftertreatment involves
greater uncertainty than engines that
comply using only in-cylinder controls.
As a result, we believe the compliance
demonstration for Tier 2 mode adds
value only if it involves aftertreatment.
• § 1042.650: Revise the introductory
text to clarify that paragraphs (a)
through (c) continue to apply only for
Category 1 and Category 2 engines, and
that the provisions related to auxiliary
engines on Category 3 vessels in
paragraph (d) apply equally for Category
3 auxiliary engines. By adding
paragraph (d) with limitation described
in the section’s introductory text, we
inadvertently excluded Category 3
auxiliary engines.
• § 1042.655: Clarify that measuring
engine-out emissions for engines that
use exhaust aftertreatment must account
for the backpressure and other effects
associated with the aftertreatment
devices. While improving the alignment
between measured results and modeled
results, this change also has the effect of
removing the expectation that engineout (pre-catalyst) emissions must meet
Tier 2 standards; this is intended to
address the case in which an engine
may meet the Tier 2 standards with a
different SCR dosing strategy rather than
by completely disabling the SCR system.
• § 1042.701: Remove the reference to
emission credits from part 94. This
reference is not needed since the
records related to credit accounting do
not identify credits as being from part
94 or part 1042.
• § 1042.801: Remove the
requirement to register fuels used to
certify remanufacturing systems. EPA
does not register fuels such as natural
gas or liquefied petroleum gas, so it is
not appropriate to impose such a
registration requirement. The
requirement continues to apply for
VerDate Sep<11>2014
22:43 May 11, 2020
Jkt 250001
remanufacturing systems that are based
on diesel fuel additives.
• § 1043.41: Clarify that engine
manufacturers may continue to produce
new engines under an established
EIAPP certificate after a change in
emission standards for purposes other
than installation in a new vessel. For
example, manufacturers may need to
produce engines certified to IMO Tier II
NOX standards after 2016 for
installation as replacement engines in
vessels built before 2016.
• § 1042.910 and § 1043.100:
Incorporate by reference the 2017
edition of MARPOL Annex VI and the
NOx Technical Code, dated 2017, which
contains all amendments through 2016.
Engine manufacturers have been
testing production engines as described
in 40 CFR part 1042. This generally
involves testing up to 1 percent of
production engines for engine families
with production volumes greater than
100 engines. We adopted these testing
provisions with the expectation that
most families would have production
volumes greater than 100 engines per
year. It turns out that there are a few
families with production volumes
substantially greater than 100 engines
per year, but many families qualify as
small-volume families that are not
subject to production-line testing
requirements. As a result, manufacturers
test several engines in large engine
families, but many engine families have
no production-line testing at all.
The biggest benefit of production-line
testing for this sector is to confirm that
engine manufacturers can go beyond the
prototype engine build for certification
and move to building compliant engines
in a production environment. From this
perspective, the first test is of most
value, with additional tests adding
assurance of proper quality control
procedures for ongoing production. We
are considering whether to revise the
production-line testing regimen for
marine diesel engines to reflect this
basic objective. Toward that end, we
would consider amending the regulation
to require no more than one test per
family. An engine test from a prior year
would count as a sufficient
demonstration as long as the
manufacturer certifies the engine family
using carryover emission data. At the
same time, we would remove the testing
exemption for small businesses and
small-volume engine families. We
believe this would result in a more
effective program with no increase in
overall testing.
We have prepared a memorandum to
spell out a possible approach for a
revised production-line testing
PO 00000
Frm 00024
Fmt 4701
Sfmt 4702
protocol.21 We request comment on
amending the production-line testing
program to require broader testing at
lower sampling rates.
H. Portable Fuel Containers (40 CFR
Part 59)
EPA’s emission standards and
certification requirements for portable
fuel containers are described in 40 CFR
part 59. Section III.A describes a
proposed amendment related to test fuel
specifications. In addition, we are
proposing the following amendments:
• § 59.626: Correct the reference to
additional testing to recognize that the
manufacturer may need to test multiple
containers.
• § 59.628: Align recordkeeping
specifications with the provisions that
apply for nonroad engines and
equipment. This removes the ambiguity
from applying specifications differently
for different types of testing
information. As noted in Section III.J,
now that test records are stored
electronically, there is no reason to
differentiate testing information into
routine and non-routine records.
• § 59.650: Revise the blending
instruction to specify a lower level of
precision; specifying a range of 10.0 ±
1.0 percent, which is consistent with the
approach we take in 40 CFR 1060.515
and 1060.520.
• § 59.653: Correct the pressure
specification for durability testing. The
amendment adjusts the kPa value to
match the psi value in the regulation.
This aligns with the pressure testing
specified for nonroad fuel tanks.
• § 59.653: Clarify that the fuel fill
level needs to stay at 40 percent full
throughout slosh testing. The container
should be closed for the duration of the
test, so this clarification is mainly
intended to ensure that the fuel tank
does not leak during the test.
• § 59.660: Revise the test exemption
to clarify that anyone subject to
regulatory prohibitions may ask for a
testing exemption.
• § 59.664: Correct the web address
for U.S. Department of Treasury Circular
570.
• § 59.680: Clarify how the definition
of ‘‘portable fuel container’’ applies for
different colors. The regulatory text
states that red, yellow, and blue utility
jugs qualify as portable fuel containers
regardless of any contrary labeling or
marketing. This is intended to prevent
circumvention of emission standards
with containers that would be

commonly recognized as portable fuel
containers. Containers that are not red,
yellow, or blue qualify as fuel
containers if they meet the criteria
described in the definition. The
amendment to clarify this point does
not represent a change in policy. For
example, anyone who sold uncertified
purple portable fuel containers that
were subject to standards may be in
violation of the prohibitions in 40 CFR
59.602.
I. Evaporative Emission Standards for
Nonroad Spark-Ignition Engines and
Equipment (40 CFR Part 1060)
EPA adopted evaporative emission
standards and test procedures in 40 CFR
part 1060. Section III.A describes
proposed amendments related to test
fuel specifications. EPA is also
proposing numerous changes across 40
CFR part 1060 to correct errors, to add
clarification, and to make adjustments
based on lessons learned from
implementing these regulatory
provisions. This includes the following
changes:
• §§ 1060.1 and 1060.801: Clarify
how standards apply for portable
nonroad fuel tanks.
• §§ 1060.30 and 1060.825:
Consolidate information-collection
provisions into a single section.
• § 1060.104: Clarify that any
approval from California ARB is
sufficient for demonstrating compliance
with running loss standards, rather than
limiting this to approved Executive
Orders.
• § 1060.105: Clarify the requirement
for tanks to be sealed to recognize the
exception allowed under the regulation.
• §§ 1060.105 and 1060.240: Allow
manufacturers more generally to
exercise the alternative of using
procedures adopted by California ARB.
This is necessary to allow testing with
the E10 test fuel adopted by California
ARB after the 2004 version of its
regulation that is currently referenced in

• § 1060.120: Clarify that the
emission-related warranty period starts
on the date that the ultimate purchaser
buys the certified product. We also
don’t want to prohibit manufacturers
from including components in the
warranty if they fail without increasing
evaporative emissions. These changes
align with similar amendments in our
other programs.
• § 1060.130: Clarify how
manufacturers must identify limitations
on the types of equipment covered by
the application for certification,
especially for fuel caps. We allow
equipment manufacturers to certify their
equipment using widely varying

approaches for fuel caps. The
equipment manufacturer’s certification

in their instructions for anyone
completing assembly of equipment from
that equipment manufacturer.
• § 1060.135: Clarify how the
equipment labeling provisions apply for
engine manufacturers, and clarify that
manufacturers need to apply labels at
the time of manufacture. In many cases,
the labeling is integral to the production
process, such as for molded fuel tanks.
• § 1060.135: Allow for permanently
identifying the date of manufacture
somewhere other than the emission
control information label using any
method (not only stamping or
engraving), and require that the
manufacturer describe in the
application for certification where the
equipment identifies the date of
manufacture.
• § 1060.135: Simplify the equipment
labeling options to align with the
prevailing practice. The alternative
approaches have been confusing for
manufacturers, who have all selected
the option of identifying family names
rather than component codes.
• § 1060.137: Clarify when and how
to label fuel caps. This depends only on
whether the fuel cap is certified, not on
whether the fuel cap is mounted
directly on the fuel tank. It is also
important to include the part number on
the fuel cap if the equipment is
designed with a pressurized fuel tank.
• § 1060.205: Replace the requirement
to submit data from invalid tests with a
requirement to simply notify EPA in the
application for certification if a test was

• § 1060.225: Clarify that amending
an application for certification applies
prospectively. In particular, amending
an application does not apply for
actions taken previously.
• § 1060.225: Clarify how
manufacturers may amend the
application for certification during and
after the model year, consistent with the
current policy regarding field fixes.
• § 1060.235: Clarify that we can
direct manufacturers to send test
products to EPA for confirmatory
testing, or to a different lab that we
specify.
• § 1060.235: Add an explicit
allowance for carryover engine families
to include the same kind of withinfamily running changes that are
currently allowed over the course of a

been understood to require that such
running changes be made separate from
certifying the engine family for the new
model year.

• § 1060.250: Remove references to
routine and standard tests, and remove
the shorter recordkeeping requirement
for routine data (or data from routine
tests). We are proposing that all test
records must be kept for eight years.
With electronic recording of test data,
there should be no advantage to keeping
the shorter recordkeeping requirement
for a subset of test data. EPA also notes
that the eight-year period restarts with
certification for a new model year if the
manufacturer uses carryover data.
• § 1060.255: Clarify that doing
anything to make information false or
incomplete after submitting an
application for certification is the same
as submitting false or incomplete
information. For example, if there is a
change to any corporate information or
parameters described in the
manufacturer’s application for
certification, the manufacturer must
amend the application to include the
new information.
• § 1060.255: Clarify that voiding
certificates for a failure to comply with
recordkeeping or reporting requirements
will be limited to the certificates that
relate to the particular recordkeeping or
reporting failure.
• § 1060.505: Revise the provision
describing alternative test procedures to
align with parallel text in 40 CFR
1065.10(c). It is important to note that
approved alternative procedures
increase flexibility for certifying
manufacturers without limiting
available methods for EPA testing.
• § 1060.520: For slosh testing and for
the preconditioning fuel soak, specify
that the fuel fill level should not
decrease during testing, other than what
would occur from permeation and from
any appropriate testing steps to perform
durability tests during the
preconditioning fuel soak. We also
specify that leaking fuel tanks are never
suitable for testing, even if there is a
potential to repair the leak.
• § 1060.601: Remove the reference to
fuel caps since there is no need for a
separate description about how the
regulatory prohibitions apply for fuel
caps. As noted in § 1061.1(c), fuel cap
manufacturers that choose to certify
their fuel caps under 40 CFR part 60
become subject to all the requirements
associated with certification.
• § 1060.610: Adopt provisions
clarifying how manufacturers can ship
products that are not yet certified if that
is needed for completing assembly at
multiple locations, including shipment
between companies and shipment
between two facilities from a single
company. These provisions are
analogous to the provisions that apply
for engines in 40 CFR 1068.260.

J. Additional Amendments for Nonroad
Spark-Ignition Engines at or Below 19
kW (40 CFR Part 1054)
EPA’s emission standards and
certification requirements for nonroad
spark-ignition engines at or below 19
kW are described in 40 CFR part 1054.
EPA is proposing numerous changes
across 40 CFR part 1054 to correct
errors, to add clarification, and to make
adjustments based on lessons learned
from implementing these regulatory
provisions. This includes the following
changes:
• § 1054.1: Clarify that the provision
allowing for voluntary certification
under 40 CFR part 1054 for larger
engines applies only for engines up to
30 kW and up to 1,000 cubic
centimeters.
• § 1054.2: Add a clarifying note to
say that a person or other entity other
than a conventional ‘‘manufacturer’’
may need to certify engines that become
new after being placed into service
(such as engines converted from
highway or stationary use). This is
intended to address an assumption that
only conventional manufacturers can
certify engines.
• §§ 1054.30, 1054.730, and
1054.825: Consolidate informationcollection provisions into a single
section.
• § 1054.120: Clarify that extendedwarranty requirements apply for the
emission-related warranty only to the
extent that warranties are actually
provided to the consumer, rather than to
any published warranties that are
offered. The principles are that the
emission-related warranty should not be
less effective for emission-related items
than for items that are not emission-

Jkt 250001
related, and that the emission-related
warranty for a given component should
not be less effective than the basic
mechanical warranty for that same
component.
• § 1054.125: Allow for special
maintenance procedures that address
low-use engines. For example, operators
in certain circumstances may perform
engine maintenance after a smaller
number of hours than would otherwise
apply.
• § 1054.130: Remove references to
‘‘nonroad’’ equipment to accommodate
regulations for stationary engines in 40
CFR part 60, subpart JJJJ, that rely on
these same provisions.
• § 1054.135: Allow for including
optional label content only if this does
not cause the manufacturer to omit
other information based on limited
availability of space on the label.
• § 1054.145: Remove obsolete
content. Most of the provisions in this
section were needed only for the
transition to the Phase 3 standards. We
are also clarifying that the provision that
allows for testing with California Phase
2 test fuel applies only through model
year 2019. California ARB requires
testing with its Phase 3 test fuel starting
in model year 2020.
• § 1054.205: Replace the requirement
to submit data from invalid tests with a
requirement to simply notify EPA in the
application for certification if a test was
invalidated.
• § 1054.205: Specify that the
application for certification needs to
include estimated initial and final dates
for producing engines for the model
year, and an estimated date for the
initial introduction into U.S. commerce.
This information helps with managing
information in the application, and
overseeing testing and other compliance
requirements. This amendment aligns
with current practice.
• § 1054.225: Clarify that amending
an application for certification applies
prospectively. In particular, amending
an application does not apply for
actions taken previously.
• § 1054.225: Simplify the instruction
on changing the Family Emission Limit
during the model year to specify that the
manufacturer must identify the date of
the change based only on the month and
year. This change aligns with current
practice for amending applications for
certification.
• § 1054.225: Clarify how
manufacturers may amend the
application for certification during and
after the model year, consistent with the
current policy regarding field fixes.
• § 1054.235: Clarify that air-fuel ratio
and other adjustable parameters are part
of the selection of a worst-case test

configuration for emission-data engines.
If an engine has rich and lean settings,
the manufacturer should determine
which is the worst-case setting for
emission measurements to determine
deterioration factors. In particular, it is
not appropriate to combine results from
different settings to calculate any kind
of average or composite value. Service
accumulation between emission
measurements may include any
representative combination of those
settings.
• § 1054.235: Add an explicit
allowance for carryover engine families
to include the same kind of withinfamily running changes that are
currently allowed over the course of a
model year. The original text may have
been understood to require that such
running changes be made separate from
certifying the engine family for the new
model year.
• § 1054.235: Clarify how EPA will
calibrate engines within normal
production tolerances for things that are
not adjustable parameters.
• §§ 1054.235, 1054.240, 1054.245,
1054.601, and 1054.801: Describe how
to demonstrate compliance with dualfuel and flexible-fuel engines. This
generally involves testing with each
separate fuel, or with a worst-case fuel
blend.
• § 1054.240: Clarify that each
measurement from emission-data
vehicles must meet emission standards.
• § 1054.245: Clarify the basis for EPA
approval for using deterioration factors
from other engines. EPA approval
depends on the manufacturer
demonstrating that emission
measurements reasonably represent inuse deterioration for the engine family
being certified. This copies in regulatory
text that already applies under other
EPA programs.
• § 1054.245: Copy in the values and
formulas used for assigned deterioration
factors for handheld and nonhandheld
engines. This includes a minor
correction to the equation from 40 CFR
90.104(g) and a new description about
combining deterioration factors for HC
and NOX, but otherwise maintains the
current policy and practice for these
deterioration factors.
• § 1054.250: Remove references to
routine and standard tests, and remove
the shorter recordkeeping requirement
for routine data (or data from routine
tests). We are proposing that all test
records must be kept for eight years.
With electronic recording of test data,
there should be no advantage to keeping
the shorter recordkeeping requirement
for a subset of test data. EPA also notes
that the eight-year period restarts with

certification for a new model year if the
manufacturer uses carryover data.
• § 1054.255: Clarify that doing
anything to make information false or
incomplete after submitting an
application for certification is the same
as submitting false or incomplete
information. For example, if there is a
change to any corporate information or
engine parameters described in the
manufacturer’s application for

new information.
• § 1054.255: Clarify that voiding
certificates for a failure to comply with
recordkeeping or reporting requirements
will be limited to the certificates that
relate to the particular recordkeeping or
reporting failure .
• § 1054.301: Clarify the process for
requesting a small-volume exemption
from production-line testing. This is
better handled as preliminary approval
under § 1054.210 rather than including
it as part of the application for
certification.
• § 1054.310: Provide an example to
illustrate how manufacturers may need
to divide a year into four quarters if the
production period is longer (or shorter)
than 52 weeks.
• § 1054.315: Clarify that results from
repeat tests can be averaged together,
provided that the engine is not modified
during the test program. This applies for
engine modifications to switch to a
different engine configuration or to
improve emission control for a given
engine configuration.
• §§ 1054.315 and 1054.320: Clarify
how to manage test results for engines
that fail an emission standard.
Manufacturers must use the PLT test
result from a failing engine regardless of
the disposition of the failing engine.
Manufacturers report test results after
modifying a failing engine to show that
it can be covered by the certificate of
conformity, but manufacturers may
factor these test results into PLT
calculations only if the manufacturer
changes production processes for all
further engines to match the
adjustments made to the failing engine.
In that case, the test results from the
modified engine count as a new test
engine for the PLT calculations, rather
than replacing the results from the
engine before modifications. These
regulatory changes codify the practice
we have already established by
guidance.22

• § 1054.620: Clarify that provisions
apply for any kind of competition, not
just racing.
• §§ 1054.625 and 1054.626: Remove
obsolete text.
• § 1054.640: Migrate engine branding

• § 1054.690: Correct the web address
for U.S. Department of Treasury Circular
570, and clarify how an automatic
suspension of a certificate of conformity
applies for certain numbers of engines,
and how U.S. Customs incorporates the
bonding requirements into its entry
procedures.
• § 1054.701: Change terminology for
counting engines from ‘‘intended for
sale in the United States’’ to ‘‘U.S.direction production volume.’’ This
conforms to the usual approach for
calculating emission credits for nonroad
engines.
• § 1054.710: Clarify that it is not
permissible to show a proper balance of
credits for a given model by using
emission credits from a future model

• § 1054.730: Clarify terminology for
ABT reports.
• § 1054.740: Remove obsolete
content.
• § 1054.801: Update the contact
information for the Designated
Compliance Officer.
• § 1054.801: Remove the note from
the definition of ‘‘handheld’’ describing
which standards apply for various types
of equipment. The note does not cover
all the provisions that apply, which has
led to more confusion than clarity.
• § 1054.801: Revise the definition of
‘‘model year’’ to clarify that the calendar
year relates to the time that engines are
produced under a certificate of
conformity.
• § 1054.801: Revise the definition of
‘‘new nonroad engine’’ to clarify that
imported engines become new based on
the original date of manufacture, rather
than the original model year. This
clarification is necessary because 40
CFR 1068.360 requires redesignation of
an imported engine’s model year in
certain circumstances.
• § 1054.801: Revise the definition of
‘‘placed into service’’ to prevent
circumvention that may result from a
manufacturer or dealer using a piece of
equipment in a way that could
otherwise cause it to no longer be new
and subject to the prohibitions of 40

manufacturer’’ to state that the volume
limits apply for all calendar years, not
just 2007 through 2009. We no longer
use this definition for limiting the scope
of transition or phase-in provisions. The
provisions for reduced production-line
testing, assigned deterioration factors,
and reduced bonding burdens should
apply without regard to the specific
years identified in the original
regulation adopting the Phase 3
standards.
• § 1054.815: Migrate provisions
related to confidential business
information to 40 CFR part 1068.
K. Amendments for General Compliance
Provisions (40 CFR part 1068)
We are proposing a minor change to
the replacement engine exemption in
§ 1068.240 to clarify how manufacturers
qualify exempted engines under the
tracked option in § 1068.240(b). Engine
manufacturers may produce any number
of exempt replacement engines if they
meet all the specified requirements and
conditions. To account for the timing of
making the necessary demonstrations,
the regulation specifies that engines
must be designated as either tracked or
untracked by September 30 following
each production year, which coincides
with the reporting requirement to
document the number of exempt
replacement engines each manufacturer
produces. The regulation as adopted
specifies that manufacturers must meet
‘‘all the requirements and conditions
that apply under paragraph (b)* * * .’’
Manufacturers have raised a question
about how this applies for the
prohibition in § 1068.240(b)(3) against
returning the old engine into U.S.
commerce unless the engine is covered
by a certificate or an exemption, as if the
engine were new. We note that
§ 1068.32(a)(3) describes how regulatory
terminology treats prohibitions and
requirements as different types of
provisions. As a result, we are
proposing to modify the regulation to
clarify that the requirements and
conditions manufacturers must meet by
September 30 to qualify under the
tracked option are those ‘‘requirements
and conditions’’ specified in
§ 1068.240(b)(2). The provisions of
§ 1068.240(b)(3) related to the
disposition of the old engine continue to
apply, but those provisions are not
subject to the September 30 deadline.
Note that marine diesel engines are
subject to § 1042.615 instead of the
requirements and conditions of
§ 1068.240(b)(2). As a result,
manufacturers qualify marine diesel
engines under the tracked option by
meeting the analogous requirements and
conditions specified in § 1042.615(a)(2)
E:\FR\FM\12MYP2.SGM
12MYP2
28166
Federal Register / Vol. 85, No. 92 / Tuesday, May 12, 2020 / Proposed Rules
by September 30 following each
production year.
Manufacturers have additionally
expressed concerns about complying
with the limit of producing only 0.5
percent of their production volume for
specified sizes and types of engines
under the untracked option. The
challenge in part comes from complying
with the limit as a percentage, since the
allowed number of untracked
replacement engines is unknown until
the manufacturer establishes its total
production volume for the year. In
addition, untracked replacement
engines are generally supplied to
distributors in anticipation of engine
failures, which might occur at very
irregular intervals. We request comment
on adjusting the terms of the untracked
option for exempt replacement engines.
Such an adjustment could take the form
of (1) a greater percentage (perhaps only
for large-displacement engines with low
production volumes), (2) revised
groupings for different sizes and types
of engines, or (3) demonstrating
compliance with the production limit
over a multi-year period. Any comments
supporting amended provisions should
specify any recommended changes in
detail and justify the need for those
changes. Comments should also address
concerns that any broadening of the
terms of the exemption could have
substantial air quality impacts by
delaying the anticipated transition to
engines meeting current standards.
We are also proposing to add a
definition for ‘‘element of design.’’ We
use this expression to define terms such
as ‘‘auxiliary emission control device,’’
‘‘emission control system,’’ and
‘‘adjustable parameters.’’ The proposed
definition is based on earlier versions of
the definition for the same term in other
programs.
We request comment on the
administrative requirements associated
with testing exemptions pursuant to 40
CFR 1068.210. In particular, we request
comment on whether or not to revise the
two-year period specified for the
exemption. Should we allow for longer
durations without requiring another
request?

L. Other Requests for Comment
EPA welcomes comments on the need
for other technical corrections and
clarifications. Readers are reminded to
review public comments placed in the
docket, which may contain requests for
other corrections and clarifications. In
addition, we request comment on the
following broadly applicable topics.
VerDate Sep<11>2014
22:43 May 11, 2020
Jkt 250001
1. End-of-Year Reports
Averaging, banking, and trading
(ABT) of emission credits is addressed
separately in individual standard-setting
parts. The standard-setting parts
generally require manufacturers using
ABT to submit two reports: an ‘‘end-ofyear’’ report due 90 days after the end
of the model year, and a ‘‘final report’’
due 270 days after the end of the model
year. EPA uses this approach because
we need to determine compliance as
close to the end of the model year as
possible, but manufacturers are often
unable to verify their information
within the 90 days, so they need
additional time before submitting their
final reports. We request comment on
potential revisions to this approach
such as:
• Eliminating the 90-day report for
manufacturers who have established a
history of full compliance with the
applicable ABT regulations.
• Replacing the two-report approach
with a single 180-day report.
We recognize that different
approaches may be appropriate for
different industries; thus, commenters
are encouraged to consider revisions
separately by sector. Commenters
supporting reducing the reporting
requirements are also encouraged to
include estimates of potential cost
savings.
2. Other Data Reporting
We request comment on the potential
for further streamlining data reporting
requirements. For example:
• Do the regulations include
redundant reporting requirements?
• Have certain older reporting
requirements ceased to be of value?
3. Engines Used in Hazardous Locations
Manufacturers of diesel engines and
equipment are sometimes subject to
other federal regulations in addition to
EPA emission standards. Diesel engine
manufacturers have shared with EPA
information regarding requirements
from the Occupational Safety and
Health Administration and the U.S.
Coast Guard regarding regulations for
engines operating in hazardous
locations. The diesel engine industry
has requested that EPA modify the EPA
emission regulations to exempt engines
used in hazardous locations from the
EPA Tier 4 emission standards for
nonroad land-based diesel engines and
the EPA Tier 4 marine diesel standards,
so that such engines are subject to the
less stringent EPA Tier 3 emission
standards for these categories of diesel
engines. They have indicated that EPA
should consider this change because
PO 00000
Frm 00028
Fmt 4701
Sfmt 4702
they believe that it would be costprohibitive for them to qualify diesel
engines meeting EPA’s Tier 4 standards
to these other rules. The concern applies
for engines and equipment operating in
Class I hazardous locations as identified
in 29 CFR part 1910 or 46 CFR part 111.
These hazardous locations generally
include land-based and marine oilextraction facilities and paper
manufacturing facilities. These
regulations require that manufacturers
modify engines and equipment, for
example, by limiting maximum surface
temperatures to 200 °C or less.
EPA does not have sufficient
information to evaluate this request at
this time. Therefore, we request that
commenters with relevant information
address the following aspects of this
issue:
• Information on the annual
production of new engines and
equipment that have been sold in the
past several years that are designed to be
used in Class I hazardous locations, and
any projections regarding future needs
on an annual basis.
• The cost of producing fully
compliant engines that could be used in
affected hazardous locations that are
compliant with EPA’s Tier 3 standards
and EPA’s Tier 4 standards.
• The typical equipment applications
the engines are used in and the price of
the equipment.
• The typical usage rates for these
engines (hours per day or hours per
year), by equipment application (if
possible).
• Information regarding the past and
likely future market response in the
absence of additional flexibility for
these engines (manufacturers have
already been subject to Tier 4 standards
for 2–4 years, after accounting for
flexibility provisions to phase in the
new standards).
Overcompliance Options
The locomotive regulations at 40 CFR
1033.101(l) include a provision allowing
manufacturers to voluntary certify to a
more stringent tier of standards or
additional requirements. That provision
states that ‘‘once the locomotives
become subject to the additional
standards, they remain subject to those
standards for the remainder of their
service lives.’’ Manufacturers have
recently noted the value of provisions
allowing them to voluntarily comply
with more stringent standards.23
Therefore, we request comment on
whether or not similar provisions

under the RFA. In making this
determination, the impact of concern is
any significant adverse economic
impact on small entities. An agency may
certify that a rule will not have a
significant economic impact on a
substantial number of small entities if
the rule relieves regulatory burden, has
no net burden or otherwise has a
positive economic effect on the small
entities subject to the rule. This
proposed action is designed to reduce
testing burdens, increase compliance
flexibility, and make various corrections
and adjustments to compliance
provisions. We therefore anticipate no
costs and no regulatory burden
associated with this proposed rule. We
have concluded that this proposed
action will have no significant increase
in regulatory burden for directly
regulated small entities.
E. Unfunded Mandates Reform Act
(UMRA)
This action does not contain any
unfunded mandate as described in
UMRA, 2 U.S.C. 1531–1538, and does
not significantly or uniquely affect small
governments. The proposed action
imposes no enforceable duty on any
state, local or tribal governments.
Requirements for the private sector do
not exceed $100 million in any one
year.
F. Executive Order 13132: Federalism
This action does not have federalism
implications. It will not have substantial
direct effects on the states, on the
relationship between the national
government and the states, or on the
distribution of power and
responsibilities among the various
levels of government.
G. Executive Order 13175: Consultation
and Coordination With Indian Tribal
Governments
This action does not have tribal
implications as specified in Executive
Order 13175. This proposed rule will be
implemented at the Federal level and
affects engine and vehicle
manufacturers. Thus, Executive Order
13175 does not apply to this action.
H. Executive Order 13045: Protection of
Children From Environmental Health
Risks and Safety Risks
This action is not subject to Executive
Order 13045 because it is not
economically significant as defined in
Executive Order 12866, and because
there are no environmental health or
safety risks created by this action that
could present a disproportionate risk to
children.
28167
I. Executive Order 13211: Actions
Concerning Regulations That
Significantly Affect Energy Supply,
Distribution or Use
This action is not a ‘‘significant
energy action’’ because it is not likely to
have a significant adverse effect on the
supply, distribution, or use of energy.
We have concluded that this action is
not likely to have any adverse energy
effects because it is designed merely to
reduce testing burdens, increase
compliance flexibility, and make
various corrections and adjustments to
compliance provisions.
J. National Technology Transfer and
Advancement Act (NTTAA) and 1 CFR
Part 51
Section 12(d) of the National
Technology Transfer and Advancement
Act of 1995 (‘‘NTTAA’’), Public Law
104–113, 12(d) (15 U.S.C. 272 note)
directs EPA to use voluntary consensus
standards in its regulatory activities
unless to do so would be inconsistent
with applicable law or otherwise
impractical. Voluntary consensus
standards are technical standards (e.g.,
materials specifications, test methods,
sampling procedures, and business
practices) that are developed or adopted
by voluntary consensus standards
bodies. NTTAA directs agencies to
provide Congress, through OMB,
explanations when the Agency decides
not to use available and applicable
voluntary consensus standards. This
action involves technical standards.
Except for the standards discussed
below, the standards included in the
regulatory text as incorporated by
reference (in parts 60, 86, 1036, 1037,
1060, and 1065) were all previously
approved for IBR and no change is
proposed in this action.
In accordance with the requirements
of 1 CFR 51.5, we are proposing to
incorporate by reference the use of test
methods and standards from ASTM
International, SAE International, and
the International Maritime Organization.
This includes the following standards
and test methods:

EPA is publishing a new version of
the Greenhouse Gas Emission Model
(GEM), which we use for certifying
heavy-duty highway vehicles to the
GHG emission standards in 40 CFR part
1037. The model calculates GHG
emission rates for heavy-duty highway
vehicles based on input values defined
by the manufacturer. The model is
available as noted in the proposed
regulations at 40 CFR 1037.810.
We are removing numerous
referenced documents as part of the
effort to remove obsolete provisions in
40 CFR parts 85 through 94.

K. Executive Order 12898: Federal
Actions To Address Environmental
Justice in Minority Populations and
Low-Income Populations
EPA believes this action does not
have disproportionately high and
adverse human health or environmental
effects on minority populations, lowincome populations or indigenous
peoples, as specified in Executive Order
12898 (59 FR 7629, February 16, 1994).
Due to the small environmental impact,
this proposed regulatory flexibility will
not have a disproportionate adverse
effect on minority populations, lowincome populations, or indigenous
peoples.

■
Authority: 42 U.S.C. 7414 and 7511b(e).
Subpart F—[Amended]
4. Amend § 59.626 by revising
paragraph (e) to read as follows:
■
§ 59.626 What emission testing must I
perform for my application for a certificate
of conformity?
*
*
*
*
*
(e) We may require you to test units
of the same or different configuration in
addition to the units tested under
paragraph (b) of this section.
*
*
*
*
*
■ 5. Amend § 59.628 by revising
paragraph (b) to read as follows:
§ 59.628 What records must I keep and
what reports must I send to EPA?
*
*
*
*
*
(b) Keep required data from emission
tests and all other information specified
in this subpart for five years after we
issue the associated certificate of
conformity. If you use the same
emission data or other information for a
later production period, the five-year
period restarts with each new
production period if you continue to
rely on the information.
*
*
*
*
*
■ 6. Amend § 59.650 by revising
paragraph (c) to read as follows:
§ 59.650
General testing provisions.
*
*
*
*
*
(c) The specification for gasoline to be
used for testing is given in 40 CFR
1065.710(c). Use the grade of gasoline
specified for general testing. Blend this

±1.0 percent ethanol by volume. You
may use ethanol that is less pure if you
can demonstrate that it will not affect
your ability to demonstrate compliance
with the applicable emission standards.
*
*
*
*
*
■ 7. Amend § 59.653 by revising
paragraphs (a)(1), (a)(3), and (a)(4)(ii)(C)
to read as follows:
§ 59.653 How do I test portable fuel
containers?
*
*
*
*
*
(a) * * *
(1) Pressure cycling. Perform a
pressure test by sealing the container
and cycling it between +13.8 and ¥3.4
kPa (+2.0 and ¥0.5 psig) for 10,000
cycles at a rate of 60 seconds per cycle.
For this test, the spout may be removed
and the pressure applied through the
opening where the spout attaches. The
purpose of this test is to represent
environmental wall stresses caused by
pressure changes and other factors (such
as vibration or thermal expansion). If
your container cannot be tested using
the pressure cycles specified by this
paragraph (a)(1), you may ask to use
special test procedures under
§ 59.652(c).
*
*
*
*
*
(3) Slosh testing. Perform a slosh test
by filling the portable fuel container to
40 percent of its capacity with the fuel
specified in paragraph (e) of this section
and rocking it at a rate of 15 cycles per
minute until you reach one million total
cycles. Use an angle deviation of +15°
to ¥15° from level. Take steps to ensure
that the fuel remains at 40 percent of its
capacity throughout the test run.
(4) * * *
(ii) * * *
(C) Actuate the spout by fully opening
and closing without dispensing fuel.
The spout must return to the closed
position without the aid of the operator
(e.g., pushing or pulling the spout
closed). Repeat for a total of 10
actuations. If at any point the spout fails
to return to the closed position, the
container fails the diurnal test.
*
*
*
*
*

paragraph (b) to read as follows:
§ 59.660
Exemption from the standards.
*
*
*
*
*
(b) Manufacturers and other persons
subject to the prohibitions in § 59.602
may ask us to exempt portable fuel
containers to purchase, sell, or
distribute them for the sole purpose of
testing them.
*
*
*
*
*

importing portable fuel containers into the
United States?
*
*
*
*
*
(c) You may meet the bond
requirements of this section by
obtaining a bond from a third-party
surety that is cited in the U.S.
Department of Treasury Circular 570,
‘‘Companies Holding Certificates of
Authority as Acceptable Sureties on
Federal Bonds and as Acceptable
Reinsuring Companies’’ (https://
www.fiscal.treasury.gov/surety-bonds/
circular-570.html).
*
*
*
*
*
■ 10. Amend § 59.680 by revising the
definition of ‘‘Portable fuel container’’
to read as follows:
§ 59.680 What definitions apply to this
subpart?
*
*
*
*
*
Portable fuel container means a
reusable container of any color that is
designed and marketed (or otherwise
intended) for use by consumers for
receiving, transporting, storing, and
dispensing gasoline, diesel fuel, or
kerosene. For the purposes of this
subpart, all utility jugs that are red,
yellow or blue in color are deemed to
be portable fuel containers, regardless of
how they are labeled or marketed.

§ 86.010–18 On-board Diagnostics for
engines used in applications greater than
14,000 pounds GVWR.
(a) * * *
(5) Engines families that we determine
conform to the requirements of this
paragraph (a)(5) are deemed to comply
with the requirements of this section,
irrespective of complete conformance
with the provisions of paragraphs (b)
through (l) of this section.
(i) A manufacturer may demonstrate
how the OBD system they have
designed to comply with California OBD
requirements for engines used in
applications greater than 14,000 pounds
also complies with the intent of the
provisions of paragraphs (b) through (l)
of this section. To make use of this
alternative, the manufacturer must
demonstrate to the Administrator how
the OBD system they intend to certify
meets the intent behind all of the
requirements of this section, where
applicable (e.g., paragraph (h) of this
section would not apply for a diesel
fueled/CI engine). Furthermore, if
making use of this alternative, the
manufacturer must comply with the
specific certification documentation
requirements of paragraph (m)(3) of this
section.
(ii) A manufacturer may demonstrate
how the OBD system of a new engine
family is sufficiently equivalent to the
OBD system of a previously certified
engine family (including engine families
previously certified under paragraph
(a)(5)(i)) of this section to demonstrate
that the new engine family complies
with the intent of the provisions of
paragraphs (b) through (l) of this
section. To make use of this alternative,
manufacturers must demonstrate to the
Administrator how the OBD systems
they intend to certify meet the intent
behind all the requirements of this
section, where applicable. For example,
paragraph (h) of this section would not
apply for a diesel-fueled engine.
Furthermore, if making use of this
alternative, the manufacturer must
comply with the specific certification
documentation requirements of
paragraph (m)(4) of this section.

OBD system must detect a misfire

misfire is 5 percent or greater.
(iii) * * *
(C) For model years 2013 through
2018, on engines equipped with sensors
that can detect combustion or
combustion quality, the OBD system
must monitor continuously for engine
misfire when positive torque is between
20 and 75 percent of peak torque, and
engine speed is less than 75 percent of
maximum engine speed. If a monitoring
system cannot detect all misfire patterns
under all required engine speed and
load conditions, the manufacturer may
request that the Administrator approve
the monitoring system nonetheless. In
evaluating the manufacturer’s request,
the Administrator will consider the
following factors: The magnitude of the
region(s) in which misfire detection is
limited; the degree to which misfire
detection is limited in the region(s) (i.e.,
the probability of detection of misfire
events); the frequency with which said
region(s) are expected to be encountered
in-use; the type of misfire patterns for
which misfire detection is troublesome;
and demonstration that the monitoring
technology employed is not inherently
incapable of detecting misfire under
required conditions (i.e., compliance
can be achieved on other engines). The
evaluation will be based on the
following misfire patterns: Equally
spaced misfire occurring on randomly
selected cylinders; single cylinder
continuous misfire; and, paired cylinder
(cylinders firing at the same crank
angle) continuous misfire.
(D) For 20 percent of 2019 model year,
50 percent of 2020 model, and 100
percent of 2021 model year diesel
engines (percentage based on the
manufacturer’s projected sales volume
of all diesel engines subject to this
regulation) equipped with sensors that
can detect combustion or combustion
quality, the OBD system must monitor
continuously for engine misfire under
all positive torque engine speed
conditions except within the following
range: The engine operating region
bound by the positive torque line (i.e.,
engine torque with transmission in
neutral) and the two following points:
Engine speed of 50 percent of maximum
engine speed with the engine torque at
the positive torque line, and 100 percent
of the maximum engine speed with the
engine torque at 10 percent of peak
torque above the positive torque line. If
a monitoring system cannot detect all
misfire patterns under all required
engine speed and load conditions, the
manufacturer may request that the
Administrator approve the monitoring
system nonetheless. In evaluating the
manufacturer’s request, the

(iii) For model years 2013 and later.
(A) A manufacturer certifying one to
five engine families in a given model
year must provide emissions test data
for a single test engine from one engine
rating. A manufacturer certifying six to
ten engine families in a given model
year must provide emissions test data
for a single test engine from two
different engine ratings. A manufacturer
certifying eleven or more engine
families in a given model year must
provide emissions test data for a single
test engine from three different engine
ratings. A manufacturer may forego
submittal of test data for one or more of
these test engines if data have been
submitted previously for all of the
engine ratings and/or if all requirements
for certification carry-over from one
model year to the next are satisfied,
and/or if differences from previously
submitted engines are not relevant to
emissions or diagnostic demonstration
(such as changes to supported data
stream parameters or changes to
monitors not associated with
demonstrating or enabling demonstrated
emission threshold diagnostics). For
purposes of this paragraph (l)(2)(iii), you
may ask to exclude special families
(such as California variants) from your
count of engine families.

in the Consumer Price Index and the
number of certificates. We will
announce adjusted fees for a given year
by March 31 of the preceding year.
(1) We will adjust the values specified
in paragraph (b) of this section for years
after 2020 as follows:
(i) Use the following equation for
certification related to evaporative
emissions from nonroad and stationary
engines when a separate fee applies for
certification to evaporative emission
standards:
Where:
Certificate FeeCY = Fee per certificate for a
given year.
Op = operating costs are all of EPA’s
nonlabor costs for each category’s
compliance program, including any fixed
costs associated with EPA’s testing
laboratory, as described in paragraph
(d)(1) of this section.
L = the labor costs, to be adjusted by the
Consumer Price Index, as described in
paragraph (d)(1) of this section.
CPICY-2 = the Consumer Price Index for the
month of November two years before the
applicable calendar year, as described in
paragraph (d)(2) of this section.
CPI2006 = 201.8. This is based on the October
2006 value of the Consumer Price Index.
as described in paragraph (d)(2) of this
section.
OH = 1.169. This is based on EPA overhead,
which is applied to all costs.
cert#MY-2 = the total number of certificates
issued for a fee category in the model
year two years before the calendar year
for the applicable fees as described in
paragraph (d)(3) of this section.
cert#MY-3 = the total number of certificates
issued for a fee category in the model
year three years before the calendar year
for the applicable fees as described in
paragraph (d)(3) of this section.
Where:
CPI2002 = 180.9. This is based on the
December 2002 value of the Consumer
Price Index as described in paragraph
(d)(2) of this section.
value calculated in paragraph (c)(1) of
this section differs by at least $50 from
the amount specified for the previous
year.
(d) Except as specified in
§ 1027.110(a) for motor vehicles and
motor vehicle engines, we will use the
following values to determine adjusted
fees using the equation in paragraph (c)

(e) The amended application applies
starting with the date you submit the
amended application, as follows:
(1) For engine families already
covered by a certificate of conformity,
you may start producing a new or
modified locomotive anytime after you
send us your amended application,
before we make a decision under
paragraph (d) of this section. However,
if we determine that the affected
locomotives do not meet applicable
requirements, we will notify you to
cease production of the locomotives and
may require you to recall the
locomotives at no expense to the owner.
Choosing to produce locomotives under
this paragraph (e) is deemed to be
consent to recall all locomotives that we
determine do not meet applicable
emission standards or other
requirements and to remedy the
nonconformity at no expense to the
owner. If you do not provide
information required under paragraph
(c) of this section within 30 days after
we request it, you must stop producing
the new or modified locomotives.

EPA decisions.
(a) If we determine an application is
complete and shows that the engine
family meets all the requirements of this
part and the Clean Air Act, we will
issue a certificate of conformity for the
engine family for that model year. We
may make the approval subject to
additional conditions.
(b) We may deny an application for
certification if we determine that an
engine family fails to comply with
emission standards or other
requirements of this part or the Clean
Air Act. We will base our decision on
all available information. If we deny an
application, we will explain why in
writing.
(c) In addition, we may deny your
application or suspend or revoke a
certificate of conformity if you do any
of the following:
(1) Refuse to comply with any testing
or reporting requirements.
(2) Submit false or incomplete
information. This includes doing
anything after submitting an application
that causes submitted information to be
false or incomplete.
(3) Cause any test data to become
inaccurate.
(4) Deny us from completing
authorized activities (see 40 CFR
1068.20). This includes a failure to
provide reasonable assistance.
(5) Produce locomotives for
importation into the United States at a
location where local law prohibits us
from carrying out authorized activities.
(6) Fail to supply requested
information or amend an application to
include all locomotives being produced.
(7) Take any action that otherwise
circumvents the intent of the Clean Air
Act or this part, with respect to an
engine family.
(d) We may void a certificate of
conformity for an engine family if you
fail to keep records, send reports, or give
us information as required under this
part or the Act. Note that these are also
violations of 40 CFR 1068.101(a)(2).
(e) We may void a certificate of
conformity for an engine family if we
find that you intentionally submitted
false or incomplete information. This
includes doing anything after
submitting an application that causes

(a) Emission standards. Emission
standards apply for engines and
powertrains measured using the test
procedures specified in subpart F of this
part as follows:
(1) CO2 emission standards in this
paragraph (a)(1) apply based on testing
as specified in subpart F of this part.
The applicable test cycle for measuring
CO2 emissions differs depending on the
engine family’s primary intended
service class and the extent to which the
engines will be (or were designed to be)
used in tractors. For medium and heavy
heavy-duty engines certified as tractor
engines, measure CO2 emissions using
the steady-state duty cycle specified in
§ 1036.501 (referred to as the rampedmodal cycle, or RMC, even though
emission sampling involves
measurements from discrete modes).
This is intended for engines designed to
be used primarily in tractors and other
line-haul applications. Note that the use
of some RMC-certified tractor engines in
vocational applications does not affect
your certification obligation under this
paragraph (a)(1); see other provisions of
this part and 40 CFR part 1037 for limits
on using engines certified to only one
cycle. For medium and heavy heavyduty engines certified as both tractor
and vocational engines, measure CO2
emissions using the steady-state duty
cycle and the transient duty cycle
(sometimes referred to as the FTP
engine cycle) specified in § 1036.501.
This is intended for engines that are
designed for use in both tractor and
vocational applications. For all other
engines (including engines meeting
spark-ignition standards), measure CO2
emissions using the appropriate
transient duty cycle specified in
§ 1036.501.

Table 1 of § 1037.510 to determine a
composite CO2 emission value for that
vehicle configuration; then repeat the
process for the manufacturer’s fuel
maps.
(2) The average percent difference
between fuel maps is calculated as:
Where:
i = an indexing variable that represents one
individual weighted duty cycle result for
a vehicle configuration.
N = total number of vehicle configurations.
eCO2compEPA = total composite mass of CO2
emissions in g/ton-mile for the EPA
confirmatory test, rounded to the nearest
whole number for vocational vehicles
and to the first decimal place for tractors.
eCO2compManu = total composite mass of CO2
emissions in g/ton-mile for the
manufacturer test, rounded to the nearest
whole number for vocational vehicles
and to the first decimal place for tractors.

decision under paragraph (d) of this
section. However, if we determine that
the affected engines do not meet
applicable requirements, we will notify
you to cease production of the engines
and may require you to recall the
engines at no expense to the owner.
Choosing to produce engines under this
paragraph (e) is deemed to be consent to
recall all engines that we determine do
not meet applicable emission standards
or other requirements and to remedy the
nonconformity at no expense to the
owner. If you do not provide
information required under paragraph

(2) Evaluate cycle-average fuel maps
by running GEM based on simulated
vehicle configurations representing the
interpolated center of every group of
four test points that define a boundary
of cycle work and average engine speed
divided by average vehicle speed. These
simulated vehicle configurations are
defined from the four surrounding
points based on averaging values for
vehicle mass, drag area (if applicable),
tire rolling resistance, tire size, and axle
ratio. The regulatory subcategory is
defined by the regulatory subcategory of
the vehicle configuration with the
greatest mass from those four test
points. Figure 1 of this section
illustrates a determination of vehicle
configurations for engines used in
tractors and Vocational Heavy-Duty
Vehicles (HDV) using a fixed tire size

model year 2021 and later engines:
(1) If your engine is intended for
installation in a vehicle equipped with
stop-start technology, you may turn the
engine off during the idle portions of the
duty cycle to represent in-use operation,
consistent with good engineering
judgment. We recommend installing an
engine starter motor and allowing the
engine ECU to control the engine stop
and start events.
(2) Measure CO2, CH4, and N2O
emissions using the transient cycle
specified in either 40 CFR 86.1333 or
appendix II to this part.
(3) For engines subject to RMC testing
under 1036.108(a)(1), use one of the
following methods to measure CO2
emissions:
(i) Use the ramped-modal cycle
specified in § 1036.505 using either
continuous or batch sampling.
(ii) Measure CO2 emissions over the
ramped-modal cycle specified in 40 CFR

§ 1036.503 Engine data and information for
vehicle certification.
jbell on DSKJLSW7X2PROD with PROPOSALS2
You must give vehicle manufacturers
information as follows so they can
certify model year 2021 and later
vehicles:
(a) Identify engine make, model, fuel
type, combustion type, engine family
name, calibration identification, and
engine displacement. Also identify
which standards the engines meet.
(b) This paragraph (b) describes three
different methods to generate engine
fuel maps. Manufacturers may generally
rely on any of the three mapping
methods. However, for hybrid engines,
manufacturers must generate fuel maps
using either cycle-average or powertrain
testing as described in paragraphs (b)(2)
and (3) of this section. For all other
hybrids, except mild hybrids, follow
paragraph (b)(3) of this section. Vehicle
manufacturers must use the powertrain
method described in paragraph (b)(2) of
this section for any vehicle with a
transmission that is not automatic,
automated manual, manual, or dualclutch.
(1) Combined steady-state and cycleaverage. Determine steady-state engine
fuel maps and fuel consumption at idle
as described in § 1036.535, and
determine cycle-average engine fuel
maps as described in § 1036.540,
excluding cycle-average fuel maps for
highway cruise cycles.
(2) Cycle-average. Determine fuel
consumption at idle as described in
§ 1036.535, and determine cycle-average
engine fuel maps as described in
§ 1036.540, including cycle-average
engine fuel maps for highway cruise
cycles. In this case, you do not need to
determine steady-state engine fuel maps
under § 1036.535. Fuel mapping for
Afront = ¥1.69 ·10¥8·164992 + 6.33
·10¥4·16499 +1.67 = 7.51 m2

22:43 May 11, 2020
highway cruise cycles using cycleaverage testing is an alternate method,
which means that we may do
confirmatory testing based on steadystate fuel mapping for highway cruise
cycles even if you do not; however, we
will use the steady-state fuel maps to
create cycle-average fuel maps. In
§ 1036.540 we define the vehicle
configurations for testing; we may add
more vehicle configurations to better
represent your engine’s operation for the
range of vehicles in which your engines
will be installed (see 40 CFR
1065.10(c)(1)).
(3) Powertrain. Generate a powertrain
fuel map as described in 40 CFR
1037.550. In this case, you do not need
to perform fuel mapping under
§ 1036.535 or § 1036.540.
(c) Provide the following information
if you generate engine fuel maps using
either paragraph (b)(1) or (2) of this
section:
(1) Full-load torque curve for installed
engines, and the full-load torque curve
of the engine (parent engine) with the
highest fueling rate that shares the same
engine hardware, including the
turbocharger, as described in 40 CFR
1065.510. You may use 40 CFR
1065.510(b)(5)(i) for engines subject to
spark-ignition standards. Measure the
torque curve for hybrid engines as
described in 40 CFR 1065.510(g) with
the hybrid system active.
(2) Motoring torque map as described
in 40 CFR 1065.510(c)(2) and (4) for
conventional and hybrid engines,
respectively. For engines with a lowspeed governor, remove data points
where the low speed governor is active.
If you don’t know when the low-speed
governor is active, we recommend
removing all points below 40 r/min
above the low warm idle speed.
(3) Declared engine idle speed. For
vehicles with manual transmissions,
this is the engine speed with the
transmission in neutral. For all other
vehicles, this is the engine’s idle speed
when the transmission is in drive.
(4) The engine idle speed during the
cycle-average fuel map.
(5) The engine idle torque during the
cycle-average fuel map.

section, determine the system
continuous rated power according to
§ 1036.527.
■ 110. Revise § 1036.505 to read as
follows:
§ 1036.505 Ramped-modal testing
procedures.
(a) Starting in model year 2021, you
must measure CO2 emissions using the
ramped-modal cycle in 40 CFR 86.1362
as described in § 1036.501, or using the
ramped-modal cycle in this section.
(b) Perform ramped-modal testing
with one of the following procedures:
(1) For engine testing, the rampedmodal duty cycles are based on
normalized speed and torque values
relative to certain maximum values.
Denormalize torque as described in 40
CFR 1065.610(d). Denormalize speed as
described in 40 CFR 1065.512.
(2) For hybrid powertrain testing,
follow 40 CFR 1037.550 to carry out the
test, but do not compensate the duty
cycle for the distance driven. For cycles
that begin with a set of contiguous idle
points, leave the transmission in neutral
or park for the full initial idle segment.
Place the transmission into drive within
5 seconds of the first nonzero vehicle
speed setpoint. Place the transmission
into park or neutral when the cycle
reaches RMC mode 14. Use the
following vehicle parameters in place of
those in 40 CFR 1037.550 to define the
vehicle model in 40 CFR 1037.550(b)(3):
(i) Determine the vehicle test mass, M,
as follows:
Where:
Pcontrated = the continuous rated power of the
hybrid system determined in § 1036.527.
Example:
Pcontrated = 350.1 kW
M = 15.1·350.11.31 = 32499 kg
(ii) Determine the vehicle frontal area,
Afront, as follows:
(A) For M ≤ 18050 kg:
(B) For M > 18050 kg, Afront = 7.59 m2
(iii) Determine the vehicle drag area,
CdA, as follows:

(4) Measure or calculate emissions of
criteria pollutants corresponding to your
measurements to demonstrate
compliance with CO2 standards. These
test results are not subject to the dutycycle standards of 40 CFR part 86,
subart A.
■ 109. Add § 1036.503 to read as
follows:
Where:
g = gravitational constant = 9.81 m/s2.
r = air density at reference conditions. Use
r = 1.1845 kg/m3.
Example:
Mrotating = 0.07·32499 = 2274.9 kg
(vi) Select a drive axle ratio, ka, that
represents the worst-case pair of drive
axle ratio and tire size for CO2 expected
for vehicles in which the powertrain
will be installed. This is typically the
highest numeric axle ratio.
(vii) Select a tire radius, r, that
represents the worst-case pair of tire
size and drive axle ratio for CO2
expected for vehicles in which the
powertrain will be installed. This is
typically the smallest tire radius.
(viii) If you are certifying a hybrid
powertrain system without the
transmission, use a default transmission
efficiency of 0.95. If you certify with
this configuration, you must use 40 CFR
1037.550(b)(3)(ii) to create the vehicle
model along with its default
transmission shift strategy. Use the
transmission parameters defined in
Table 1 of § 1036.540 to determine
transmission type and gear ratio. Use
the transient cycle parameters for the
FTP and the highway cruise cycle
parameters for the RMC.
(ix) Select axle efficiency, Effaxle,
according to 40 CFR 1037.550.
(c) Measure emissions using the
ramped-modal duty cycle shown in
Table 1 of § 1036.505 to determine
whether engines and hybrid powertrains
meet the steady-state compressionignition standards specified in subpart B

powertrain testing, as follows:
(1) The duty cycle for testing engines
involves a schedule of normalized
engine speed and torque values.
(2) The duty cycle for hybrid
powertrain testing involves a schedule
of vehicle speeds and road grade.
Determine road grade at each point
based on the continuous rated power of
the hybrid powertrain system, Pcontrated,
determined in § 1036.527 and the
specified road grade coefficients using
the following equation:

(a) Measure emissions by testing the
engine or hybrid powertrain on a
dynamometer with one of the following
transient duty cycles to determine
whether it meets the transient emission
standards:
(1) For spark-ignition engines, use the
transient duty cycle described in
paragraph (a) of Appendix II of this part.
(2) For compression-ignition engines,
use the transient duty cycle described in
paragraph (b) of Appendix II of this part.
(3) For spark-ignition hybrid
powertrains, use the transient duty
cycle described in paragraph (a) of
Appendix II of this part.
(d) Calculate cycle statistics and
compare with the established criteria as
specified in 40 CFR 1065.514 for
engines and 40 CFR 1037.550 for hybrid
powertrains to confirm that the test is
valid.

(4) For compression-ignition hybrid
powertrains, use the transient duty
cycle described in paragraph (b) of
Appendix II of this part.
(b) Perform the following depending
on if you are testing engines or hybrid
powertrains:
(1) For engine testing, the transient
duty cycles are based on normalized
speed and torque values relative to
certain maximum values. Denormalize
torque as described in 40 CFR
1065.610(d). Denormalize speed as
described in 40 CFR 1065.512.
(2) For hybrid powertrain testing,
follow § 1036.505(b)(2) to carry out the
test except replace Pcontrated with Prated,
the peak rated power determined in
§ 1036.527 and keep the transmission in
drive for all idle segments after the
initial idle segment.
(c) The transient test sequence
consists of an initial run through the
transient duty cycle from a cold start, 20
minutes with no engine operation, then
a final run through the same transient
duty cycle. Start sampling emissions
immediately after you start the engine
and continue sampling until the duty
cycle is complete. Calculate the total
emission mass of each constituent, m,
and the total work, W, over each test
interval according to 40 CFR 1065.650.
Calculate the official transient emission
result from the cold-start and hot-start
test intervals using the following

arithmetic mean of the results as your
test fuel’s Emfuelmeas.
(ii) For gaseous fuels, determine
Emfuelmeas according to ASTM D3588
(incorporated by reference in
§ 1036.810).
(2) Determine your test fuel’s carbon
mass fraction, wC, as described in 40
CFR 1065.655(d), expressed to at least
three decimal places; however, you
must measure fuel properties rather
than using the default values specified
in Table 1 of 40 CFR 1065.655.

parameters in § 1036.505(b)(2), except
replace Pcontrated with the manufacturer
declared system peak power. Note that
if you repeat the system rated power
determination as described in paragraph
(i)(4) of this section, use the measured
system peak power in place of Pcontrated.
(b) For conventional powertrains
follow paragraphs (d), (e), and (h) of this
section. For hybrid powertrains, follow
paragraphs (c) through (j) of this section.
(c) Prior to the start of each test
interval verify the following:
(i) The state-of-charge of the the
rechargeable energy storage system
(RESS) is ≥90% of the operating range
between the minimum and maximum
RESS energy levels specified by the
manufacturer.
(ii) The conditions of all hybrid
system components are within their
normal operating range as declared by
the manufacturer.
(iii) RESS restrictions (e.g., power
limiting, thermal limits, etc.) are not
active.
(d) Set maximum driver demand for a
full load acceleration at 0% road grade
starting at an initial vehicle speed of 0
mi/hr. Stop the test 300 seconds after
the vehicle speed has stopped
increasing above the maximum value
observed during the test.
(e) Record the powertrain system
speed and torque values at the wheel
hub at 100 Hz and use these in
conjunction with the vehicle model to
calculate Psys,vehicle.
(f) After completing the test interval
described in paragraphs (d) and (e) of
this section repeat the steps in
paragraphs (c) through (e) of this section
for 2% and 6% road grades.
(g) After completing the test intervals
described in paragraphs (c) and (e) of
this section repeat the steps in
paragraphs (c) through (f) of this section
for initial vehicle speeds of 20 mi/hr
and 40 mi/hr. After completing the test

has not been contaminated.
(4) Correct measured CO2 emission
rates as follows:
Where:
eCO2 = the calculated CO2 emission result.
Emfuelmeas = the mass-specific net energy
content of the test fuel as determined in
paragraph (b)(1) of this section. Note that
dividing this value by wCmeas (as is done
in this equation) equates to a carbonspecific net energy content having the

§ 1036.535 Determining steady-state
engine fuel maps and fuel consumption at
idle.
This section describes how to
determine an engine’s steady-state fuel
map and fuel consumption at idle for
model year 2021 and later vehicles.
Vehicle manufacturers may need these
values to demonstrate compliance with
emission standards under 40 CFR part
1037 as described in § 1036.510.
(a) General test provisions. Perform
fuel mapping using the procedure
described in paragraph (b) of this
section to establish measured fuelconsumption rates at a range of engine
speed and load settings. Measure fuel
consumption at idle using the procedure
described in paragraph (c) of this
section. If you perform cycle-average
mapping for highway cruise cycles as
described in § 1036.540, omit mapping
under paragraph (b) of the section and
instead perform mapping as described
in paragraph (d) of this section. Use
these measured fuel-consumption
values to declare fuel-consumption rates

for certification as described in
paragraph (e) of this section.
(1) Map the engine’s torque curve and
declare engine idle speed as described
in § 1036.503(c)(1) and (3), and perform
emission measurements as described in
40 CFR 1065.501 and 1065.530 for
discrete-mode steady-state testing. This
section uses engine parameters and
variables that are consistent with 40
CFR part 1065.
(2) Measure NOX emissions for each
specified sampling period in g/s. You
may perform these measurements using
a NOX emission-measurement system
that meets the requirements of 40 CFR
part 1065, subpart J. Include these
measured NOX values any time you
report to us your fuel consumption
values from testing under this section. If
a system malfunction prevents you from
measuring NOX emissions during a test
under this section but the test otherwise
gives valid results, you may consider
this a valid test and omit the NOX
emission measurements; however, we
may require you to repeat the test if we
determine that you inappropriately
voided the test with respect to NOX
emission measurement.

(b) Steady-state fuel mapping.
Determine fuel-consumption rates for
each engine configuration over a series
of steady-state engine operating points
consisting of pairs of speed and torque
points as described in this paragraph
(b). You may use shared data across an
engine platform to the extent that the
fuel-consumption rates remain valid.
For example, if you test a high-output
configuration and create a different
configuration that uses the same fueling
strategy but limits the engine operation
to be a subset of that from the highoutput configuration, you may use the
fuel-consumption rates for the reduced
number of mapped points for the lowoutput configuration, as long as the
narrower map includes at least 70
points. Perform fuel mapping as follows:
(1) Generate the sequence of steadystate engine operating points as follows:
(i) Determine the required steady-state
engine operating points as follows:
(A) For engines with an adjustable
warm idle speed setpoint, select the
following ten speed setpoints: Minimum
warm idle speed, fnidlemin, the highest
speed above maximum power at which
70% of maximum power occurs, nhi,
and eight equally spaced points between
E:\FR\FM\12MYP2.SGM
12MYP2
EP12MY20.016 EP12MY20.017
b For
28199
fnidlemin and nhi. (See 40 CFR
1065.610(c)). For engines without an
adjustable warm idle speed replace
minimum warm idle speed with warm
idle speed, fnidle.
(B) Select the following ten torque
setpoints at each of the selected speed
setpoints: Zero (T = 0), maximum
mapped torque, Tmax mapped, and eight
equally spaced points between T = 0
and Tmax mapped. For each of the selected
speed setpoints, replace any torque
setpoints that are above the mapped
torque at the selected speed setpoint,
Tmax, minus 5 percent of Tmax mapped,
with one test point at Tmax.
(ii) Select any additional (optional)
steady-state engine operating points
consistent with good engineering
judgment. For example, when linear
interpolation between the defined
points is not a reasonable assumption
for determining fuel consumption from
the engine. For each additional speed
setpoint, increments between torque
setpoints must be no larger than oneninth of Tmax,mapped and we recommend
including a torque setpoint of Tmax. If
you select a maximum torque setpoint
less than Tmax, use good engineering
judgement to select your maximum
torque setpoint to avoid
unrepresentative data. We will select at
least as many points as you.
(iii) Set the run order for all of the
steady-state engine operating points
(both required and optional) as
described in this paragraph (b)(1)(iii).
Arrange the list of steady-state engine
operating points such that the resulting
list of paired speed and torque setpoints
begins with the highest speed setpoint
and highest torque setpoint followed by
decreasing torque setpoints at the
highest speed setpoint. This will be
followed by the next lowest speed
setpoint and the highest torque setpoint
at that speed setpoint continuing
through all the steady-state engine
operating points and ending with the
lowest speed (fnidlemin) and torque
setpoint (T = 0). Figure 1 provides an
example of this array of points and run
order.
(iv) The steady-state engine operating
points that have the highest torque
setpoint for a given speed setpoint are
optional reentry points into the steadystate-fuel-mapping sequence, should
you need to pause or interrupt the
sequence during testing.
(v) The steady-state engine operating
points that have the lowest torque
setpoint for a given speed setpoint are
optional exit points from the steadystate-fuel-mapping sequence, should
you need to pause or interrupt the
sequence during testing.
(2) If the engine has an adjustable
warm idle speed setpoint, set it to its
minimum value, fnidlemin.
(3) During each test interval, control
speed within ±1% of nhi and engine
torque within ±5% of Tmax mapped except
for the following cases where both
setpoints cannot be achieved because
the steady-state engine operating point
is near an engine operating boundary:
(i) For steady-state engine operating
points that cannot be achieved and the
operator demand stabilizes at minimum;
control the dynamometer so it gives
priority to follow the torque setpoint
and let the engine govern the speed (see

tolerance on speed control in paragraph
(b)(3) of this section does not apply and
engine torque is controlled to within
±25 N·m.
(ii) For steady-state engine operating
points that cannot be achieved and the
operator demand stabilizes at maximum
and the speed setpoint is below 90% of
nhi; control the dynamometer so it gives
priority to follow the speed setpoint and
let the engine govern the torque (see 40
CFR 1065.512(b)(2)). In this case, the
tolerance on torque control given in
paragraph (b)(3) of this section does not
apply.
(iii) For steady-state engine operating
points that cannot be achieved and the
operator demand stabilizes at maximum
and the speed setpoint is at or above
90% of nhi; control the dynamometer so
it gives priority to follow the torque
setpoint and let the engine govern the
speed (see 40 CFR 1065.512(b)(1)). In
this case, the tolerance on speed control
given in paragraph (b)(3) of this section
does not apply.
(iv) For the steady-state engine
operating points at the minimum speed
setpoint and maximum torque setpoint,
you may select a dynamometer control
mode that gives priority to speed and an
engine control mode that gives priority
to torque. In this case, if the operator
demand stabilizes at minimum or
maximum, the tolerance on torque
control in paragraph (b)(3) of this
section does not apply.
(4) You may select the appropriate
dynamometer and engine control modes
in real-time or at any time prior based
on various factors including the
operating setpoint location relative to an
engine operating boundary. Warm-up
the engine as described in 40 CFR
1065.510(b)(2).
(6) Within 60 seconds after
concluding the warm-up, linearly ramp
the speed and torque setpoints over 5
seconds to the first steady-state engine
operating point from paragraph (b)(1) of
this section.
(7) Operate the engine at the steadystate engine operating point for (70 ± 1)
seconds, and then start the test interval
and record measurements using one of
the following methods. You must also
measure and report NOX emissions over
each test interval as described in
paragraph (a)(2) of this section. If you
use redundant systems for the
determination of fuel consumption, for
example combining measurements of
dilute and raw emissions when
generating your map, follow the
requirements of 40 CFR 1065.201(d).
(i) Indirect measurement of fuel flow.
Record speed and torque and measure
emissions and other inputs needed to

run the chemical balance in 40 CFR
1065.655(c) for a (30 ± 1) second test
interval; determine the corresponding
mean values for the test interval. We
will use an average of indirect
measurement of fuel flow with dilute
sampling and direct sampling. For
dilute sampling of emissions, in
addition to the background
measurement provisions described in 40
CFR 1065.140 you may do the
following:
(A) If you use batch sampling to
measure background emissions, you
may sample periodically into the bag
over the course of multiple test intervals
and read them as allowed in paragraph
(b)(10)(i) of this section. If you use this
provision, you must apply the same
background readings to correct
emissions from each of the applicable
test intervals.
(B) You may determine background
emissions by sampling from the dilution
air during the non-test interval periods
in the test sequence, including pauses
allowed in paragraph (b)(10)(i) of this
section. If you use this provision, you
must allow sufficient time for
stabilization of the background
measurement; followed by an averaging
period of at least 30 seconds. Use the
average of the most recent pre-test
interval and the next post-test interval
background readings to correct each test
interval. The most recent pre-test
interval background reading must be
taken no greater than 30 minutes prior
to the start of the first applicable test
interval and the next post-test interval
background reading must be taken no
later than 30 minutes after the end of
the last applicable test interval.
Background readings must be taken
prior to the test interval for each reentry
point and after the test interval for each
exit point or more frequently.
(ii) Direct measurement of fuel flow.
Record speed and torque and measure
fuel consumption with a fuel flow meter
for a (30 ± 1) second test interval;
determine the corresponding mean
values for the test interval.
(8) After completing the test interval
described in paragraph (b)(7) of this
section, linearly ramp the speed and
torque setpoints over 5 seconds to the
next steady-state engine operating point.
(i) You may pause the steady-statefuel-mapping sequence at any of the
reentry points (as noted in paragraph
(b)(1)(iv) of this section) to calibrate
emission-measurement instrumentation;
to read and evacuate background bag
samples collected over the course of
multiple test intervals; or to sample the
dilution air for background emissions.
This provision allows you to spend
PO 00000
Frm 00062

Sfmt 4702
more than the 70 seconds noted in
paragraph (b)(7) of this section.
(ii) If an infrequent regeneration event
occurs, interrupt the steady-state-fuelmapping sequence and allow the
regeneration event to finish. You may
continue to operate at the steady-state
engine operating point where the event
began or, using good engineering
judgement, you may transition to
another operating condition to reduce
the regeneration event duration. You
may complete any post-test interval
activities to validate test intervals prior
to the most recent reentry point. Once
the regeneration event is finished,
linearly ramp the speed and torque
setpoints over 5 seconds to the most
recent reentry point described in
paragraph (b)(1)(iv) of this section, and
restart the steady-state-fuel-mapping
sequence by repeating the steps in
paragraphs (b)(7) and (8) of this section
for all the remaining steady-state engine
operating points. Operate at the reentry
point for longer than the 70 seconds in
paragraph (b)(7), as needed, to bring the
aftertreatment to representative thermal
conditions. Void all test intervals in the
steady-state-fuel-mapping sequence
beginning with the reentry point and
ending with the steady-state engine
operating point where the regeneration
event began.
(iii) You may interrupt the steadystate-fuel-mapping sequence after any of
the exit points described in paragraph
(b)(1)(v) of this section. To restart the
steady-state-fuel-mapping sequence;
begin with paragraph (b)(5) of this
section and continue with paragraph
(b)(6) of this section, except that the
steady-state engine operating point is
the next reentry point, not the first
operating point from paragraph (b)(1) of
this section. Follow paragraphs (b)(7)
and (8) of this section until all
remaining steady-state engine operating

(i) Engines with an adjustable warm
idle speed setpoint. For the warm-up in
paragraph (c)(3) and the transition in
paragraph (c)(4) of this section control
both speed and torque. At any time
prior to reaching the next engine-idle
operating point, set the engine’s
adjustable warm idle speed setpoint to
the speed setpoint of the next engineidle operating point in the sequence.
This may be done before or during the
warm-up or during the transition. Near
the end of the transition period control
speed and torque as described in
paragraph (b)(3)(i) of this section. Once
the transition is complete; set the
operator demand to minimum to allow
the engine governor to control speed;
and control torque with the
dynamometer as described in paragraph
(b)(3) of this section.
(ii) Engines without an adjustable
warm idle speed setpoint. Control speed
and torque with operator demand and
the dynamometer for the engine-idle
operating points at the higher speed
setpoint as described in paragraph (b)(3)
of this section. Both the speed and
torque tolerances apply for these points
because they are not near the engine’s
operating boundary and are achievable.
Control speed and torque for the engineidle operating points at the lower speed
setpoint as described in paragraph
(c)(2)(i) of this section except for setting
the engine’s adjustable warm idle speed
setpoint.
(3) Warm-up the engine as described
in 40 CFR 1065.510(b)(2).
(4) After concluding the warm-up
procedure, linearly ramp the speed and
torque setpoints over 20 seconds to
operate the engine at the next engineidle operating point from paragraph
(c)(1) of this section.
(5) Operate the engine at the engineidle operating point for (180 ± 1)
seconds, and then start the test interval
and record measurements using one of
the following methods. You must also
measure and report NOX emissions over
each test interval as described in
paragraph (a)(2) of this section. If you
use redundant systems for the
determination of fuel consumption, for
example combining measurements of
dilute and raw emissions when
generating your map, follow the
requirements of 40 CFR 1065.201(d).
(i) Indirect measurement of fuel flow.
Record speed and torque and measure
emissions and other inputs needed to
run the chemical balance in 40 CFR
1065.655(c) for a (600 ± 1) second test
interval; determine the corresponding
mean values for the test interval. We
will use an average of indirect
measurement of fuel flow with dilute
sampling and direct sampling. For

dilute sampling of emissions, measure
background according to the provisions
described in 40 CFR 1065.140, but read
the background as described in
paragraph (c)(7)(i) of this section. If you
use batch sampling to measure
background emissions, you may sample
periodically into the bag over the course
of multiple test intervals and read them
as allowed in paragraph (b)(10)(i) of this
section. If you use this provision, you
must apply the same background
readings to correct emissions from each
of the applicable test intervals. If you
use batch sampling to measure
background emissions, you may sample
periodically into the bag over the course
of multiple test intervals and read them
as allowed in paragraph (b)(10)(i) of this
section. If you use this provision, you
must apply the same background
readings to correct emissions from each
of the applicable test intervals. Note that
the minimum dilution ratio
requirements for PM sampling in 40
CFR 1065.140(e)(2) do not apply. We
recommend minimizing the CVS flow
rate to minimize errors due to
background correction consistent with
good engineering judgement and
operational constraints such as
minimum flow rate for good mixing.
(ii) Direct measurement of fuel flow.
Record speed and torque and measure
fuel consumption with a fuel flow meter
for a (600 ± 1) second test interval;
determine the corresponding mean
values for the test interval.
(6) After completing the test interval
described in paragraph (c)(5) of this
section, repeat the steps in paragraphs
(c)(3) to (5) of this section for all the
remaining engine-idle operating points.
After completing the test interval on the
last engine-idle operating point, the
fuel-consumption-at-idle sequence is
complete.
(7) The following provisions apply for
interruptions in the fuel-consumptionat-idle sequence. These provisions are
intended to produce results equivalent
to running the sequence without
interruption.
(i) You may pause the fuelconsumption-at-idle sequence after each
test interval to calibrate emissionmeasurement instrumentation and to
read and evacuate background bag
samples collected over the course of a
single test interval. This provision
allows you to shut-down the engine or
to spend more time at the speed/torque
idle setpoint after completing the test
interval before transitioning to the step
in paragraph (c)(3) of this section.
(ii) If an infrequent regeneration event
occurs, interrupt the fuel-consumptionat-idle sequence and allow the
regeneration event to finish. You may

continue to operate at the engine-idle
operating point where the event began
or, using good engineering judgement,
you may transition to another operating
condition to reduce the regeneration
event duration. If the event occurs
during a test interval, void that test
interval. Once the regeneration event is
finished, restart the fuel-consumptionat-idle sequence by repeating the steps
in paragraphs (c)(3) through (5) of this
section for all the remaining engine-idle
operating points.
(iii) You may interrupt the fuelconsumption-at-idle sequence after any
of the test intervals. Restart the fuelconsumption-at-idle sequence by
repeating the steps in paragraphs (c)(3)
through (5) of this section for all the
remaining engine-idle operating points.
(iv) If the fuel-consumption-at-idle
sequence is interrupted due to test
equipment or engine malfunction,
correct the malfunction and restart the
fuel-consumption-at-idle sequence by
repeating the steps in paragraphs (c)(3)
through (5) of this section for all the
remaining engine-idle operating points.
If the malfunction occurred during a test
interval, void that test interval.
(v) If any idle test intervals are
voided, repeat the steps in paragraphs
(c)(3) through (5) of this section for each
of the voided engine-idle operating
points.
(8) Correct the measured or calculated
Ô at each
mean fuel mass flow rate, m
fuel
of the engine-idle operating points to
account for mass-specific net energy
content as described in paragraph
(b)(13) of this section.
(d) Steady-state fuel maps used for
cycle-average fuel mapping of the cruise
cycles. Determine fuel-consumption
rates for each engine configuration over
a series of steady-state engine operating
points near idle as described in this
paragraph (d). You may use shared data
across an engine platform to the extent
that the fuel-consumption rates remain
valid.
(1) Perform steady-state fuel mapping
as described in paragraph (b) of this
section with the following exceptions:
(i) All the required steady-state engine
operating points as described in
paragraph (b)(1)(i) of this section are
optional.
(ii) Select speed setpoints to cover the
range of idle speeds expected as follows:
(A) The minimum number of speed
setpoints is two.
(B) For engines with an adjustable
warm idle speed setpoint, the minimum
speed setpoint must be equal to the
minimum warm idle speed, ƒnidlemin, and
the maximum speed setpoint must be
equal to or greater than the maximum
warm idle speed, ƒnidlemax. The

minimum speed setpoint for engines
without an adjustable warm idle speed
setpoint, must be equal to the warm idle
speed (with zero torque on the primary
output shaft), ƒnidle, and the maximum
speed setpoint must be equal to or
greater than 1.15 times the warm idle
speed, ƒnidle.
(iii) Select torque setpoints at each
speed setpoint to cover the range of idle
torques expected as follows:
(A) The minimum number of torque
setpoints at each speed setpoint is three.
Note that you must meet the minimum
torque spacing requirements described
in paragraph (b)(1)(ii) of this section.
(B) The minimum torque setpoint at
each speed setpoint is zero.
(C) The maximum torque setpoint at
each speed setpoint must be greater than
or equal to the estimated maximum
torque at warm idle (in-drive)
conditions, Tidlemaxest, using the
following equation. For engines with an
adjustable warm idle speed setpoint,
evaluate Tidlemaxest at the maximum
warm idle speed, ƒnidlemax. For engines
without an adjustable warm idle speed
setpoint, use the warm idle speed (with
zero torque on the primary output
shaft), ƒnidle.
Where:
Tfnstall = the maximum engine torque at ƒnstall.
ƒnidle = the applicable engine idle speed as
described in this paragraph (d).
ƒnstall = the stall speed of the torque converter;
use ƒntest or 2250 rpm, whichever is
lower.
Pacc = accessory power for the vehicle class;
use 1500 W for Vocational Light HDV,
2500 W for Vocational Medium HDV,
and 3500 W for Tractors and Vocational
Heavy HDV.
Example:
(2) Remove the points from the
default map that are below 115% of the
maximum speed and 115% of the
maximum torque of the boundaries of
the points measured in paragraph (d)(1)
of this section.
(3) Add the points measured in
paragraph (d)(1) of this section.
(e) Carbon balance verification. The
provisions related to carbon balance
verification in § 1036.543 apply to test
intervals in this section.

parameters for different vehicle service
classes and vehicle duty cycles as
described in Table 1 of this section. For

(ii) Within each group of engine duty
cycles derived from the same vehicle
duty cycle, order the duty cycles as
follows: Select the engine duty cycle
with the highest reference cycle work;
followed by the cycle with the lowest
cycle work; followed by the cycle with
next highest cycle work; followed by the
cycle with the next lowest cycle work;
until all the cycles are selected.
(iii) For each engine duty cycle,
preconditioning cycles will be needed
to start the cycle-average-fuel-mapping
sequence.
(A) For the first and second cycle in
each sequence, the two preconditioning
cycles are the first cycle in the
sequence, the transient vehicle duty
cycle with the highest reference cycle
work. This cycle is run twice for
preconditioning prior to starting the
sequence for either of the first two
cycles.
(B) For all other cycles, the two
preconditioning cycles are the previous
two cycles in the sequence.
(2) If the engine has an adjustable
warm idle speed setpoint, set it to its
minimum value, ƒnidlemin.
(3) During each test interval, control
speed and torque to meet the cycle
validation criteria in 40 CFR 1065.514,
except as noted in this paragraph (d)(3).
If the range of reference speeds is less
than 10 percent of the mean reference
speed, you only need to meet the
standard error of estimate in Table 2 of
40 CFR 1065.514 for the speed
regression.
(4) Warm-up the engine as described
in 40 CFR 1065.510(b)(2).
(5) Transition between duty cycles as
follows:
(i) For transient duty cycles, start the
next cycle within 5 seconds after the
conclusion of the preceeding cycle.
(ii) For cruise cycles, linearly ramp to
the next cycle over 5 seconds and
stabilize for 15 seconds prior to starting
the next cycle.
(6) Operate the engine over the engine
duty cycle and record measurements
using one of the methods described in
(d)(6)(i) or (ii) of this section. You must
also measure and report NOX emissions
over each test interval as described in
paragraph (a)(2) of this section. If you
use redundant systems for the
determination of fuel consumption, for
example combining measurements of
dilute and raw emissions when
generating your map, follow the
requirements of 40 CFR 1065.201(d).
(i) Indirect measurement of fuel flow.
Record speed and torque and measure
emissions and other inputs needed to
run the chemical balance in 40 CFR
1065.655(c) for the test interval defined
by the first engine duty cycle; determine
VerDate Sep<11>2014
22:43 May 11, 2020
Jkt 250001
the corresponding mean values for the
test interval. We will use an average of
indirect measurement of fuel flow with
dilute sampling and direct sampling.
For dilute sampling of emissions, in
addition to the background
measurement provisions described in 40
CFR 1065.140, you may do the
following:
(A) Measure background as described
in § 1036.535(b)(7)(i)(A) but read the
background as described in paragraph
(d)(9)(i) of this section.
(B) Measure background as described
in § 1036.535(b)(7)(i)(B) but read the
background as described in paragraph
(d)(9)(i) of this section.
(ii) Direct measurement of fuel flow.
Record speed and torque and measure
fuel consumption with a fuel flow meter
for the test interval defined by the first
engine duty cycle; determine the
corresponding mean values for the test
interval.
(7) Repeat the steps in paragraph
(d)(6) of this section for all the
remaining engine duty cycles.
(8) Repeat the steps in paragraphs
(d)(4) through (7) of this section for all
the applicable groups of duty cycles
(e.g., transient vehicle duty cycle, 55
mi/hr highway cruise duty cycle, and
the 65 mi/hr highway cruise duty cycle).
(9) The following provisions apply for
interruptions in the cycle-average-fuelmapping sequence. These provisions are
intended to produce results equivalent
to running the sequence without
interruption.
(i) You may pause the cycle-averagefuel-mapping sequence after each test
interval to calibrate emissionmeasurement instrumentation, to read
and evacuate background bag samples
collected over the course of multiple
test intervals, or to sample the dilution
air for background emissions. This
provision requires you to shut-down the
engine during the pause. If the pause is
longer than 30 minutes, restart the
engine and restart the cycle-averagefuel-mapping sequence at the step in
paragraph (d)(4) of this section.
Otherwise, restart the engine and restart
the cycle-average-fuel-mapping
sequence at the step in paragraph (d)(5)
of this section.
(ii) If an infrequent regeneration event
occurs, interrupt the cycle-average-fuelmapping sequence and allow the
regeneration event to finish. You may
continue to operate the engine over the
engine duty cycle where the event began
or, using good engineering judgement,
you may transition to another operating
condition to reduce the regeneration
event duration.
(A) Determine which cycles in the
sequence to void as follows:
PO 00000
Frm 00070
Fmt 4701
Sfmt 4702
(1) If the regeneration event began
during a test interval, the cycle
associated with that test interval must
be voided.
(2) If you used dilute sampling to
measure emissions and you used batch
sampling to measure background
emissions that were sampled
periodically into the bag over the course
of multiple test intervals and you are
unable to read the background bag (e.g.,
sample volume too small), void all
cycles associated with that background
bag.
(3) If you used dilute sampling to
measure emissions and you used the
option to sample periodically from the
dilution air and you did not meet all the
requirements for this option as
described in paragraph (d)(6)(i)(B) of
this section, void all cycles associated
with those background readings.
(4) If the regeneration event began
during a non-test-interval period of the
sequence and the provisions in
paragraphs (d)(9)(ii)(A)(2) and (3) of this
section do not apply, you do not need
to void any cycles.
(B) Determine the cycle to restart the
sequence. Identify the cycle associated
with the last valid test interval. The next
cycle in the sequence is the cycle to be
used to restart the sequence.
(C) Once the regeneration event is
finished, restart the sequence at the
cycle determined in paragraph
(d)(9)(ii)(B) of this section instead of the
first cycle of the sequence. If the engine
is not already warm, restart the
sequence at paragraph (d)(4) of this
section. Otherwise, restart at paragraph
(d)(5) of this section.
(iii) If the cycle-average-fuel-mapping
sequence is interrupted due to test
equipment or engine malfunction,
correct the malfunction and follow the
steps in paragraphs (d)(9)(ii)(A) through
(C) of this section to restart the
sequence. Treat the detection of the
malfunction as the beginning of the
regeneration event.
(iv) If any test interval in the cycleaverage-fuel-mapping sequence is
voided, you must rerun that test interval
as described in this paragraph (d)(9)(iv).
You may rerun the whole sequence or
any contiguous part of the sequence. If
you end up with multiple valid test
intervals for a given cycle, use the last
valid test interval for determining the
cycle-average fuel map. If the engine has
been shut-down for more than 30
minutes or if it is not already warm,
restart the sequence at paragraph (d)(4)
of this section. Otherwise, restart at
paragraph (d)(5) of this section. Repeat
the steps in paragraphs (d)(6) and (d)(7)
of this section until you complete the
whole sequence or part of the sequence.
E:\FR\FM\12MYP2.SGM
12MYP2
28209
The following examples illustrate
possible scenarios for completing only
part of the sequence:
(A) If you voided only the test interval
associated with the fourth cycle in the
sequence, you may restart the sequence
using the second and third cycles as the
preconditioning cycles and stop after
completing the test interval associated
with the fourth cycle.
(B) If you voided the test intervals
associated with the fourth and sixth
cycles, you may restart the sequence
using the second and third cycles as the
preconditioning cycles and stop after
completing the test interval associated
with the sixth cycle. If the test interval
associated with the fifth cycle in this
sequence was valid, it must be used for
determining the cycle-average fuel map
instead of the original one.
(10) For plug-in hybrid engines,
precondition the battery and then
complete all back-to-back tests for each
test configuration according to 40 CFR
1066.501 before moving to the next test
configuration.
(11) You may send signals to the
engine controller during the test, such
as current transmission gear and vehicle
speed, if that allows engine operation
during the test to better represent in-use
operation.
(12) For hybrid powertrains with no
plug-in capability, correct for the net
energy change of the energy storage
device as described in 40 CFR 1066.501.
For plug-in hybrid engines, follow 40
CFR 1066.501 to determine End-of-Test
for charge-depleting operation; to do
this, you must get our advance approval
for a utility factor curve. We will
approve your utility factor curve if you
can show that you created it from
sufficient in-use data of vehicles in the
same application as the vehicles in
which the PHEV engine will be
installed.
(13) Calculate the fuel mass flow rate,
mfuel, for each duty cycle using one of
the following equations:
(i) Determine fuel-consumption rates
using emission measurements from the
raw or diluted exhaust, calculate the
mass of fuel for each duty cycle,
mfuel[cycle], as follows:
(A) For calculations that use
continuous measurement of emissions
and continuous CO2 from urea, calculate
mfuel[cycle] using the following equation:
Where:
MC = molar mass of carbon.
wCmeas = carbon mass fraction of fuel (or
mixture of test fuels) as determined in 40

Appendix I to Part 1036—Summary of
Previous Emission Standards
The following standards, which EPA
originally adopted under 40 CFR part 85 or
part 86, apply to compression-ignition
engines produced before model year 2007
and to spark-ignition engines produced
before model year 2008:
(a) Smoke. Smoke standards applied for
compression-ignition engines based on
opacity measurement using the test
procedures in 40 CFR part 86, subpart I, as
follows:
(1) Engines were subject to the following
smoke standards for model years 1970
through 1973:
(i) 40 percent during the engine
acceleration mode.
(ii) 20 percent during the engine lugging
mode.
(2) The smoke standards in 40 CFR 86.11
started to apply in model year 1974.
(b) Idle CO. A standard of 0.5 percent of
exhaust gas flow at curb idle applied through
model year 2016 to the following engines:
(1) Spark-ignition engines with
aftertreatment starting in model year 1987.
This standard applied only for gasolinefueled engines through model year 1997.
Starting in model year 1998, the same
standard applied for engines fueled by
methanol, LPG, and natural gas. The idle CO
standard no longer applied for engines
certified to meet onboard diagnostic
requirements starting in model year 2005.

(2) Methanol-fueled compression-ignition
engines starting in model year 1990. This
standard also applied for natural gas and LPG
engines starting in model year 1997. The idle
CO standard no longer applied for engines
certified to meet onboard diagnostic
requirements starting in model year 2007.
(c) Crankcase emissions. The requirement
to design engines to prevent crankcase
emissions applied starting with the following
engines:
(1) Spark-ignition engines starting in model
year 1968. This standard applied only for
gasoline-fueled engines through model year
1989, and applied for spark-ignition engines
using other fuels starting in model year 1990.
(2) Naturally aspirated diesel-fueled
engines starting in model year 1985.
(3) Methanol-fueled compression-ignition
engines starting in model year 1990.
(4) Naturally aspirated gaseous-fueled
engines starting in model year 1997, and all
other gaseous-fueled engines starting in 1998.
(d) Early steady-state standards. The
following criteria standards applied to heavyduty engines based on steady-state
measurement procedures:

PART 1037—CONTROL OF EMISSIONS
FROM NEW HEAVY-DUTY MOTOR
VEHICLES
124. The authority statement for part
1037 continues to read as follows:
■
Authority: 42 U.S.C. 7401–7671q.
125. Amend § 1037.103 by revising
paragraph (c) to read as follows:
■
§ 1037.103 Evaporative and refueling
emission standards.
*
*
*
*
*
(c) Compliance demonstration. You
may provide a statement in the
application for certification that
vehicles above 14,000 pounds GVWR
comply with evaporative and refueling
emission standards instead of
submitting test data if you include an
engineering analysis describing how
vehicles include design parameters,
equipment, operating controls, or other
elements of design that adequately
demonstrate that vehicles comply with
the standards throughout the useful life.
We would expect emission control
components and systems to exhibit a
comparable degree of control relative to
vehicles that comply based on testing.
For example, vehicles that comply
under this paragraph (c) should rely on
comparable material specifications to
limit fuel permeation, and components
should be sized and calibrated to
correspond with the appropriate fuel
capacities, fuel flow rates, purge
strategies, and other vehicle operating
characteristics. You may alternatively
show that design parameters are
comparable to those for vehicles at or
below 14,000 pounds GVWR certified
under 40 CFR part 86, subpart S.
*
*
*
*
*
■ 126. Amend § 1037.105 by revising
the section heading and paragraph (h)(1)
to read as follows:
§ 1037.105 CO2 emission standards for
vocational vehicles.
*
*
*

(e) Air conditioning leakage. Loss of
refrigerant from your air conditioning
systems may not exceed a total leakage
rate of 11.0 grams per year or a percent
leakage rate of 1.50 percent per year,
whichever is greater. This applies for all
refrigerants. Calculate the total leakage
rate in g/year as specified in 40 CFR
86.1867–12(a). Calculate the percent
leakage rate as: [total leakage rate (g/yr)]
÷ [total refrigerant capacity (g)] × 100.
Round your percent leakage rate to the
nearest one-hundredth of a percent.
(1) This paragraph (e) is intended to
address air conditioning systems for
which the primary purpose is to cool
the driver compartment. This would
generally include all complete pickups
and vans. This paragraph (e) does not
apply for refrigeration units on trailers.
Similarly, it does not apply for selfcontained air conditioning or
refrigeration units on vocational
vehicles. Air conditioning and
refrigeration units may be considered to
be self-contained whether or not they
draw power from the propulsion
engines.
(2) For purposes of this requirement,
‘‘refrigerant capacity’’ is the total mass
of refrigerant recommended by the
vehicle manufacturer as representing a

(g) The standards and other
provisions of this part apply to specific
vehicle service classes for tractors and
vocational vehicles as follows:
(1) Phase 1 and Phase 2 tractors are
divided based on GVWR into Class 7
tractors and Class 8 tractors. Where
provisions apply to both tractors and
vocational vehicles, Class 7 tractors are
considered ‘‘Medium HDV’’ and Class 8
tractors are considered ‘‘Heavy HDV’’.
This applies for both hybrid and nonhybrid vehicles.
(2) Phase 1 vocational vehicles are
divided based on GVWR. ‘‘Light HDV’’
includes Class 2b through Class 5
vehicles; ‘‘Medium HDV includes Class
6 and Class 7 vehicles; and ‘‘Heavy HDV
includes Class 8 vehicles.

(4) This paragraph (g)(4) applies for
Phase 2 vocational vehicles propelled
by engines subject to the compressionignition standards or 40 CFR part 1036.
(i) Class 2b through Class 5 vehicles
are considered ‘‘Light HDV’’.
(ii) Class 6 through 8 vehicles are
considered ‘‘Heavy HDV’’ if the
installed engine’s primary intended
service class is heavy heavy-duty (see 40
CFR 1036.140).
(iii) Class 8 hybrid and electric
vehicles are considered ‘‘heavy HDV’’.
(iv) All other Class 6 through Class 8
vehicles are considered ‘‘Medium
HDV’’.
(5) In certain circumstances, you may
certify vehicles to standards that apply
for a different vehicle service class. For
example, see §§ 1037.105(g) and
1037.106(f). If you optionally certify
vehicles to different standards, those
vehicles are subject to all the regulatory
requirements as if the standards were

Similarly, qualifying small
manufacturers are not subject to the
greenhouse gas standards of § 1037.107
for trailers with a date of manufacture
before January 1, 2019. In addition,
qualifying small manufacturers
producing vehicles that run on any fuel
other than gasoline, E85, or diesel fuel
may delay complying with every later
standard under this part by one model
year. Qualifying manufacturers must
notify the Designated Compliance
Officer each model year before
introducing these excluded vehicles
into U.S. commerce. This notification
must include a description of the
manufacturer’s qualification as a small
business under 13 CFR 121.201. You
must label your excluded vehicles with
the following statement: ‘‘THIS
VEHICLE IS EXCLUDED UNDER 40
CFR 1037.150(c).’’ Small manufacturers
may certify their vehicles under this
part 1037 before standards start to
apply; however, they may generate
emission credits only if they certify
their entire U.S.-directed production
volume within the applicable averaging
set for that model year. See paragraphs

We will calculate confidence intervals
from a minimum of 100 valid runs using
the same SEA equations and will not
replace your test results with ours if
your result falls within our confidence
interval or is greater than our test result.
Note that we intend to minimize the
differences between our test conditions
and those of the manufacturer by testing
at similar times of the year where
possible.

criteria are consistent with good
engineering judgment.
(1) Any vocational vehicle may be
classified as Multi-purpose.
(2) Your vocational vehicles not
classified as Multi-purpose must be

vehicles to Urban vehicles within an
averaging set. Specifically, ratio of
Regional vehicles to Urban vehicles in
each averaging set must be between 1:5

this is that the number of Regional
vehicles divided by the number of
Urban vehicles would need to be
between 0.20 and 5.0.

Choosing to produce vehicles under this
paragraph (e) is deemed to be consent to
recall all vehicles that we determine do
not meet applicable emission standards
or other requirements and to remedy the
nonconformity at no expense to the
owner. If you do not provide
information required under paragraph

■ 140. Amend § 1037.305 by revising
the introductory text and paragraph (a)
to read as follows:
§ 1037.305 Audit procedures for tractors—
aerodynamic testing.
To perform a selective enforcement
audit with respect to drag area for
tractors, use the reference method
specified in § 1037.525; we may instead
require you to use the same method you
used for certification. The following
provisions apply instead of 40 CFR
1068.415 through 1068.425 for a
selective enforcement audit with respect
to drag area:
(a) Determine whether or not a tractor
fails to meet standards as follows:
(1) We will select a vehicle
configuration for testing. Perform a
coastdown measurement with the
vehicle in its production configuration
according to § 1037.528. Instead of the
process described in § 1037.528(h)(12),
determine your test result as described
in this paragraph (a). You must have an
equal number of runs in each direction.
(2) Measure a yaw curve for your test
vehicle using your alternate method
according to § 1037.525(b)(3). You do
not need to test at the coastdown
effective yaw angle. You may use a
previously established yaw curve from
your certification testing if it is
available.
(3) Using this yaw curve, perform a
regression using values of drag area,
CdAalt, and yaw angle, yalt, to determine
the air-direction correction coefficients,
a0, a1, a2, a3, and a4, for the following
equation:
E:\FR\FM\12MYP2.SGM
12MYP2
(4) Adjust the drag area value from
each coastdown run, CdArun, from the
yaw angle of each run, yrun, to ±4.5° to
represent a wind-averaged drag area
value, CdAwa by applying Eq. 1037.305–
1 as follows:
(5) Perform additional coastdown
measurements until you reach a pass or
fail decision under this paragraph (a).
The minimum number of runs to pass
is 24. The minimum number of runs to
fail is 100.
(6) Calculate statistical values to
characterize cumulative test results at
least once per day based on an equal
number of coastdown runs in each
direction. Determine the wind-averaged
drag area value for the test CdAwa by
averaging all CdAwa-run values for all
days of testing. Determine the upper and
lower bounds of the drag area value,
CdAwa-bounded, expressed to two decimal
places, using a confidence interval as
follows:
Where:
CdAwa-bounded = the upper bound, CdAwa-upper,
and lower bound, CdAwa-lower of the drag
area value, where CdAwa-upper is the larger
number.
CdAwa = the average of all CdAwa-run values.
s = the standard deviation of all CdArun
values (see 40 CFR 1065.602(c)).
n = the total number of coastdown runs.
(iv) The vehicle fails if you choose to
stop testing before reaching a final
determination under this paragraph
(a)(7).
(v) Manufacturers may continue
testing beyond the stopping point
specified in this paragraph (a)(7). We
may consider the additional data in
making pass/fail determinations.

■ 141. Revise § 1037.320 to read as
follows:
emission result for every applicable
duty cycle is at or below the modeled
emission result corresponding to the
declared GEM inputs.
(b) Run GEM for each applicable
vehicle configuration identified in 40
CFR 1036.540. For axle testing, this may
require omitting several vehicle
configurations based on selecting axle
ratios that correspond to the tested axle.
The GEM result for each vehicle
configuration counts as a separate test
for determining whether the family
passes the audit.
(c) If the initial axle or transmission
passes, the family passes and no further
testing is required. If the initial axle or
transmission does not pass, select two
additional production axles or
transmissions, as applicable, to perform
additional tests. Use good engineering
judgment to combine the results of the
three tests into a single map. This
becomes the official test result for the
family.
■ 142. Amend § 1037.501 by adding
paragraph (i) to read as follows:
(7) Compliance is determined based
on the values of CdAwa-upper and
CdAwa-lower relative to the adjusted bin
boundary. For purposes of this section,
the upper limit of a bin is expressed as
the specified value plus 0.05 to account
for rounding. For example, for a bin
including values of 5.5–5.9 m2, being
above the upper limit means exceeding
5.95 m2. The vehicle reaches a pass or
fail decision relative to the adjusted bin
boundary based on one of the following
criteria:
(i) The vehicle passes if CdAwa-upper is
less than or equal to the upper limit of
the bin to which you certified the
vehicle.
(ii) The vehicle fails if CdAwa-lower is
greater than the upper limit of the bin
to which you certified the vehicle.
(iii) The vehicle passes if you perform
100 coastdown runs and CdAwa-upper is
greater than and CdAwa-lower is lower
than the upper limit of the bin to which
you certified the vehicle.

§§ 1037.550 or 1037.555, perform testing
as described in this paragraph (a)(2) to
generate GEM inputs for each simulated
vehicle configuration, and test runs
representing different idle conditions.
Perform testing as follows:
(i) Transient cycle. The transient cycle
is specified in Appendix I of this part.
(ii) Highway cruise cycles. The grade
portion of the route corresponding to
the 55 mi/hr and 65 mi/hr highway
cruise cycles is specified in Appendix
IV of this part. Maintain vehicle speed
between –1.0 mi/hr and 3.0 mi/hr of the
speed setpoint; this speed tolerance
applies instead of the approach
specified in 40 CFR 1066.425(b)(1) and
(2).
(iii) Drive idle. Perform testing at a
loaded idle condition for Phase 2
vocational vehicles. For engines with an
adjustable warm idle speed setpoint,
test at the minimum warm idle speed
and the maximum warm idle speed,
otherwise test at the engine’s warm idle
speed. Warm up the powertrain using
the vehicle settings for the Test 1
vehicle configuration as defined in
Table 2 or Table 3 of 40 CFR 1036.540
by operating it at 65 mi/hr for 600
seconds. Linearly ramp the powertrain
to zero vehicle speed in 20 seconds. Set
the engine to operate at idle speed for
90 seconds, with the brake applied and
the transmission in drive (or clutch
depressed for manual transmission), and
sample emissions to determine mean
emission values (in g/s) over the last 30
seconds of idling.
(iv) Parked idle. Perform testing at an
unloaded idle condition for Phase 2
vocational vehicles. For engines with an
adjustable warm idle speed setpoint,
test at the minimum warm idle speed
and the maximum warm idle speed,
otherwise test at the engine’s warm idle
speed. Warm up the powertrain using
the vehicle settings for the Test 1
vehicle configuration by operating it at
65 mi/hr for 600 seconds. Linearly ramp
the powertrain to zero vehicle speed in
20 seconds. Set the engine to operate at
idle speed for 780 seconds, with the
transmission in park (or the
transmission in neutral with the parking
brake applied for manual
transmissions), and sample emissions to
determine mean emission values (in g/

additional fuel-mapping information for
the heavier vehicle. Note that you do
not need fuel consumption at idle for
tractors.
(g) Vehicle characteristics. Enter the
following information to describe the
vehicle and its operating parameters:
(1) Transmission make, model, and
type. Also identify the gear ratio for
every available forward gear to two
decimal places, the input torque limit
for each of the forward gears, and, if
applicable, the lowest gear involving a
locked torque converter. For vehicles
with a manual transmission, GEM
applies a 2% emission increase relative
to automated manual transmissions. If
your vehicle has a dual-clutch
transmission, use good engineering
judgment to determine if it can be
accurately represented in GEM as an
automated manual transmission. We
may require you to perform a
powertrain test with dual-clutch
transmissions to show that they can be
properly simulated as an automated
manual transmission.
(2) Drive axle make, model, and
configuration type. Select a drive axle
configuration to represent your vehicle
for modeling.
(i) 4×2: One drive axle and one nondrive axle.
(ii) 6×2: One drive axle and two nondrive axles.
(iii) 6×4: Two or more drive axles, or
more than three total axles. Note that
this includes, for example, a vehicle
with two drive axles out of four total
axles (otherwise known as an 8×4
configuration).
(iv) 6×4D: One non-drive axle and two
drive axles, including one
disconnectable drive axle. The axle
configuration can automatically switch
between 6×2 and 6×4 configurations.
You may select this configuration if at
least one of the following is true:
(A) The input and output of the
disconnectable axle is mechanically
disconnected from the drive shaft and
the wheels when the axle is in the 6×2
configuration.
(B) You provide power loss data
generated according to § 1037.560.
(3) Drive axle ratio, ka. If a vehicle is
designed with two or more userselectable axle ratios, use the drive axle
ratio that is expected to be engaged for
the greatest driving distance. If the
vehicle does not have a drive axle, such
as a hybrid vehicle with direct electric
drive, let ka = 1.
(4) GEM inputs associated with
powertrain testing include powertrain
family, transmission calibration
identifier, test data from § 1037.550, and
the powertrain test configuration
(dynamometer connected to
transmission output or wheel hub). You
do not need to identify or provide
inputs for transmission gear ratios, fuel
map data, or engine torque curves,
which would otherwise be required
under paragraph (f) of this section.
(h) Idle speed and idle-reduction
technologies. (1) Input your vehicle idle
speed as follows:
(i) For heavy heavy-duty vehicles
input your vehicle’s maximum
adjustable idle speed or 600 rpm,
whichever is lower.
(ii) For light heavy-duty and medium
heavy-duty vehicles input your
vehicle’s maximum adjustable idle
speed or 750 rpm, whichever is lower.
(iii) For spark-ignition vehicles input
your vehicle’s maximum adjustable idle
speed or 600 rpm, whichever is lower.
(2) Identify whether your vehicle has
qualifying idle-reduction technologies,
subject to the qualifying criteria in
§ 1037.660, as follows:
(i) Stop-start technology and
automatic engine shutdown systems
apply for vocational vehicles. See
paragraph (j) of this section for
automatic engine shutdown systems for
tractors.
(ii) Neutral idle applies for tractors
and vocational vehicles.
(i) Axle, transmission, and torque
converter characterization. You may
characterize the axle, transmission, and
torque converter and use axle efficiency
maps as described in § 1037.560,
transmission efficiency maps as
described in § 1037.565, and torque
converter capacity factors as described
in § 1037.570 to replace the default
values in GEM. If you obtain your test
results from the axle manufacturer,
transmission manufacturer, torque
converter manufacturer or another third
party, you must obtain a signed
statement from the party supplying
those test results to verify that tests were
conducted according to the
requirements of this part. Such
statements are deemed to be
submissions to EPA.
(j) Additional reduction technologies.
Enter input values in GEM as follows to
characterize the percentage CO2
emission reduction corresponding to
certain technologies and vehicle
configurations, or enter 0:
(1) Intelligent controls. Enter 2 for
tractors with predictive cruise control.
This includes any cruise control system
that incorporates satellite-based globalpositioning data for controlling operator
demand. Enter 1.5 for tractors and
vocational vehicles if they have neutral
coasting, unless good engineering
judgment indicates that a lower
percentage should apply.
(2) Accessory load. Enter the
following values related to accessory
loads; if more than one item applies,
enter the sum of those values:
(i) If vocational vehicles have
electrically powered pumps for steering,
enter 0.5 for vocational vehicles
certified with the Regional duty cycle,
and enter 1 for other vocational
vehicles.
(ii) If tractors have electrically
powered pumps for both steering and
engine cooling, enter 1.
(iii) If vehicles have a high-efficiency
air conditioning compressor, enter 0.5
for tractors and vocational Heavy HDV,
and enter 1 for other vocational
vehicles. This includes mechanically
powered compressors meeting the
specifications described in 40 CFR
86.1868–12(h)(5), and all electrically
powered compressors.
(3) Tire-pressure systems. Enter 1.2 for
vehicles with automatic tire inflation
systems on all axles (1.1 for MultiPurpose and Urban vocational vehicles).
Enter 1.0 for vehicles with tire pressure
monitoring systems on all axles (0.9 for
Multi-Purpose and Urban vocational
vehicles). If vehicles use a mix of the
two systems, treat them as having only
tire pressure monitoring systems.

*
*
(b) Adjustments to correlate with
coastdown testing. Adjust aerodynamic
drag values from alternate methods to be
equivalent to the corresponding values
from coastdown measurements as
follows:
(1) Determine the functional
relationship between your alternate
method and coastdown testing. Specify
this functional relationship as Falt-aero for
a given alternate drag measurement
method using the following equation:
jbell on DSKJLSW7X2PROD with PROPOSALS2
*
(2) Unless good engineering judgment
dictates otherwise, assume that
coastdown drag is proportional to drag
measured using alternate methods and
apply a constant adjustment factor,
Falt-aero, for a given alternate drag
measurement method of similar
vehicles.
(3) Determine Falt-aero by performing
coastdown testing and applying your
alternate method on the same vehicles.
Consider all applicable test data
including data collected during
selective enforcement audits. Unless we
VerDate Sep<11>2014
22:43 May 11, 2020
Jkt 250001
approve another vehicle, one vehicle
must be a Class 8 high-roof sleeper cab
with a full aerodynamics package
pulling a standard trailer. Where you
have more than one tractor model
meeting these criteria, use the tractor
model with the highest projected sales.
If you do not have such a tractor model,
you may use your most comparable
tractor model with our prior approval.
In the case of alternate methods other
than those specified in this subpart,
good engineering judgment may require
you to determine your adjustment factor
based on results from more than the
specified minimum number of vehicles.
(4) Measure the drag area using your
alternate method for a Phase 2 tractor
used to determine Falt-aero with testing at
yaw angles of 0°, ±1°, ±3°, ±4.5°, ±6°,
and ±9° (you may include additional
angles), using direction conventions
described in Figure 2 of SAE J1252
(incorporated by reference in
§ 1037.810). Also, determine the drag
area at the coastdown effective yaw
angle, CdAeffective-yaw-alt, by taking the
average drag area at yeff and –yeff for
your vehicle using the same alternate
method.
(5) For Phase 2 testing, determine
separate values of Falt-aero for a minimum
of one high-roof day cab and one highroof sleeper cab for 2021, 2024, and
2027 model years based on testing as
described in paragraph (b)(2) of this
section (six tests total). Alternatively,
you may test earlier model years than
specified here. For any untested tractor
models, apply the value of Falt-aero from
the tested tractor model that best
represents the aerodynamic
characteristics of the untested tractor
model, consistent with good engineering
judgment. Testing under this paragraph
(b)(4) continues to be valid for later
model years until you change the tractor
model in a way that causes the test
results to no longer represent
production vehicles. You must also
determine unique values of Falt-aero for
low-roof and mid-roof tractors if you
determine CdA values based on low or
mid-roof tractor testing as shown in
PO 00000

Table 4 of § 1037.520. For Phase 1
testing, if good engineering judgment
allows it, you may calculate a single,
constant value of Falt-aero for your whole
product line by dividing the coastdown
drag area, CdAcoastdown, by CdAalt.
(6) Determine Falt-aero to at least three
decimal places. For example, if your
coastdown testing results in a drag area
of 6.430, but your wind tunnel method
results in a drag area of 6.200, Falt-aero
would be 1.037 (or a higher value you
declare).
(7) If a tractor and trailer cannot be
configured to meet the gap
requirements, test with the trailer
positioned as close as possible to the
specified gap dimension and use good
engineering judgment to correct the
results to be equivalent to a test
configuration meeting the specified gap
dimension. This allowance applies for
all testing, including confirmatory and
SEA testing.
(8) Manufacturers should coordinate
Falt-aero coastdown testing with EPA
before testing to enable EPA to witness
the testing.

(6) For tractor testing, calculate the
tire rolling resistance force at high and
low speeds for steer, drive, and trailer
axle positions, FTRR[speed,axle], and
determine DFTRR as follows:
(i) Conduct a stepwise coastdown tire
rolling resistance test with three tires for
each tire model installed on the vehicle
using SAE J2452 (incorporated by
reference in § 1037.810) for the
following test points (which replace the
test points in Table 3 of SAE J2452):
Where:
nt,[axle] = number of tires at the axle position.
p[axle] = the inflation pressure set and
measured on the tires at the axle position
at the beginning of the coastdown test.
L[axle] = the load over the axle at the axle
position on the coastdown test vehicle.
a[axle], b[axle], a[axle], b[axle], and c[axle] =
regression coefficients from SAE J2452
that are specific to axle position.

ctrailer = 2.94·10–7
v¯seghi = 28.86 m/s = 103.896 km/hr
v¯seglo = 5.84 m/s = 21.024 km/hr
FTRRhi,steer = 365.6 N
FTRRhi,drive = 431.4 N
FTRRhi,trailer = 231.7 N
FTRRlo,steer = 297.8 N
FTRRlo,drive = 350.7 N
FTRRlo,trailer = 189.0 N
(iv) Calculate FTRR[speed] by summing
the tire rolling resistance calculations at
a given speed for each axle position:
Example:
FTRRlo = 297.8 + 350.7 + 189.0 = 837.5

judgment to consider the multiple
results. For example, you may ignore
the test results for the tires with the
highest and lowest differences and use

following equation:
FTRRhi = 365.6 + 431.4 + 231.7 = 1028.7

Determine the vehicle model inputs for

vehicle configurations as described in
40 CFR 1036.540(c)(3). You may instead
test to simulate eight or nine vehicle
configurations from different vehicle
categories if you limit your powertrains
to a certain range of vehicles. For
example, if your powertrain will be
installed only in vocational Medium
HDV and vocational Heavy HDV, you
may perform testing to represent eight
or nine vehicle configurations using
vehicle masses for Medium HDV and
Heavy HDV, the predefined CÒ dA
Ò for
those vehicles, and the lowest and
highest Crr of the tires that will be
installed on those vehicles. Also,
instead of selecting axle ratios and tire
sizes based on the range of intended
vehicle applications as described in this
paragraph (i), you may select axle ratios
and tire sizes such that the ratio of
engine speed over vehicle speed covers
the range of ratios of minimum and
maximum engine speed over vehicle
speed when the transmission is in top
gear for the vehicles the powertrain will
be installed in. For hybrid powertrain
systems where the transmission will be
part of the vehicle model, use the
transmission parameters defined in
Table 1 of 40 CFR 1036.540 to
determine transmission type and gear
ratio and a fixed transmission efficiency

exceptions:
(1) Add a 20-second transition period
between adjacent duty cycles. If you are
transitioning from an engine stop
situation, transition to the next cycle
within 60 seconds. For cruise cycles,
add a 40-second stabilization period
after the transition period before starting

if you can show that you created it from
sufficient in-use data of vehicles in the
same application as the vehicles in
which the PHEV powertrain will be
installed.
(l) [Reserved]
(m) For each test point, validate the
measured output speed with the
corresponding reference values. If the
range of reference speed is less than 10
percent of the mean reference speed,
you need to meet only the standard

(h) Design a driver model to simulate
a human driver modulating the throttle

as closely as possible. The driver model
must meet the speed requirements for
operation over the highway cruise
cycles as described in § 1037.510 and
for operation over the transient cycle as
described in 40 CFR 1066.425(b). The
exceptions in 40 CFR 1066.425(b)(4)
apply to the transient cycle and the
highway cruise cycles. Design the driver
model to meet the following
specifications:
(1) Send a brake signal when throttle
position is zero and vehicle speed is
greater than the reference vehicle speed
from the test cycle. Include a delay
before changing the brake signal to
prevent dithering, consistent with good
engineering judgment.
(2) Allow braking only if throttle
position is zero.
(3) Compensate for the distance
driven over the duty cycle over the
course of the test. Use the following

axle configuration with the lowest
efficiency from the axle family; this will
generally involve testing the axle with
the highest axle ratio. For vehicles with
tandem drive axles, always test each
drive axle separately. For tandem axles

single-drive and tandem axle
configurations. Alternatively, you may

speed-measurement system that meets
an accuracy of ±0.05% of point. Use

(e) Determine axle efficiency using the
following procedure:
(1) Maintain ambient temperature
between (15 and 35) °C throughout
testing. Measure ambient temperature
within 1.0 m of the axle assembly.
Verify that critical axle settings (such as
bearing preload, backlash, and oil sump
level) are within specifications before
and after testing.
(2) Maintain gear oil temperature at
(81 to 83) °C. You may specify an
alternative range with lower
temperatures; if you measure
temperature to the nearest 0.1 °C, the
maximum allowable range is 3.0 °C. We
will test your axle using the same
temperature range you used for testing.
Measure gear oil temperature at the
drain of the sump. You may use an
external gear oil conditioning system, as
long as it does not affect measured
values.
(3) Use good engineering judgment to
warm up the axle by operating it until
the gear oil is within the specified
temperature range.
(4) Stabilize operation at each point in
the test matrix for at least 10 seconds,
then measure the input torque, output

at the same speed and torque test points.
Test the smallest and largest numeric
axle ratios within the family and an axle
ratio with a value that is near the
arithmetic mean of the smallest and
largest axle ratios.
(2) Perform a second order leastsquares regression of the declared power
loss values versus the axle ratio for each

by the same multiplier until the second

equally spaced intermediate speeds. The
intermediate speed points may be
adjusted to the nearest 50 or 100 r/min.
You may increase the number of speed
test points to improve the accuracy of
the transmission power loss map,
consistent with good engineering
judgment.
(2) Include one loaded torque setpoint
between 75% and 105% of the
maximum transmission input torque

■
§ 1037.570 Determination of torque
converter capacity factors.
This section describes a procedure for
mapping torque converter capacity
factors through a determination of
torque converter input and output
speeds and torques.
(a) You may establish torque
converter capacity factors based on
testing any torque converter.
Alternatively, you may ask us to
approve torque converter capacity
factors for untested configurations that
are analytically derived from tested
configurations (see § 1037.235(h)).
(b) Prepare a torque converter for
testing as follows:
(1) Select a torque converter with less
than 500 hours of operation before
testing.
(2) Mount the torque converter with
transmission to the dynamometer in
either a serial or parallel arrangement. If
you choose a serial arrangement, you
may test without the transmission.
(3) Add transmission oil according to
the torque converter manufacturer’s
instructions. If the torque converter
manufacturer specifies multiple
transmission oils, select the one with
the highest viscosity at operating
temperature. You may use a lowerviscosity transmission oil if we approve
that as critical emission-related
maintenance under § 1037.125. Fill the
transmission oil to a level that
represents in-use operation. If you are
testing the torque converter only, the
input torque converter transmission oil
flow rate and output pressure must be
kept within the torque converter
manufacturer’s limits for the
transmission type and maximum input
speed. You may use an external
transmission oil conditioning system, as
long as it does not affect measured
values.
(4) Install equipment for measuring
the bulk temperature of the transmission
oil in the oil sump or a similar location.
If the torque converter is tested without
the transmission, measure the oil
temperature prior to where it enters the
torque converter.
(5) If the torque converter is equipped
with a lock, unlock it for all testing
performed in this section. If equipped
with slipping lockup clutch technology
you may ask us to approve a different
strategy if you have data showing that
it represents better in-use operation.
(6) Break in the torque converter and
transmission (if applicable) using good
engineering judgment. Maintain
transmission oil temperature at (87 to
93) °C. You may ask us to approve a
PO 00000

different range of transmission oil
temperatures if you have data showing
that it better represents in-use operation.
(c) Measure input and output shaft
speed and torque as described in 40 CFR
1065.210(b), except that you must use a
speed measurement system that meets
an accuracy of ±0.1% of point or 1 r/
min, whichever is greater. Use torque
transducers that meet an accuracy
requirement of ±1.0% of the torque
converter’s maximum rated input torque
or output torque for loaded and
unloaded test points. Calibrate and
verify measurement instruments
according to 40 CFR part 1065, subpart
C. Command speed and torque at a
minimum of 10 Hz, and record all data,
including bulk oil temperature, at a
minimum of 1 Hz mean values.
(d) The test matrix consists of torque
converter constant input shaft speeds or
input shaft torque setpoints depending
on the measurement option that you
choose.
(1) To determine torque converter
characteristics at constant input speed:
(i) Select an input rotational pump
speed, fnpum, fixed to a constant speed
between (1000 and 2000) r/min.
(ii) Test the torque converter at
multiple speed ratios, v, in the range of
v = 0 to v = 0.95. Use a step width of
0.1 for the range of v = 0 to 0.6 and 0.05
for the range of v = 0.6 to 0.95.
(2) To determine torque converter
characteristics at constant input torque:
(i) Set the input pump torque, Tpum, to
a positive level at fnpum = 1000 r/min
with the output shaft of the torque
converter locked in a non-rotating state
(output rotational turbine speed, ntur, =
0 r/min).
(ii) Test the torque converter at
multiple speed ratios, v, in the range of
v = 0 up to a usable value of ƒntur that
covers the usable range of v with at least
seven evenly distributed points. Use a
step width of 0.1 for the range of v = 0
to 0.6 and 0.05 for the range of v = 0.6
to 0.95.
(e) Characterize the torque converter
using the following procedure:
(1) Maintain ambient temperature
between (15 and 35) °C throughout
testing. Measure ambient temperature
within 1.0 m of the torque converter.
(2) Maintain transmission oil
temperature as described in paragraph
(b)(6) of this section. You may use an
external transmission oil conditioning
system, as long as it does not affect
measured values.
(3) Use good engineering judgment to
warm up the torque converter according
to the torque converter manufacturer’s
specifications.
(4) Operate the torque converter as
follows:

(9) The deviation for the complete
speed ratio series between the measured
and averaged speed and torque values at
the input shaft may not exceed ±5 rpm
and ±5 N·m of the speed and torque set
points for each measured operating
point. If any of these ranges are exceed,
the test must be repeated.
(f) Calculate the mean torque ratio, S,
at each operating condition in the test
matrix as follows:
(1) m≈ is the mean torque ratio, for each
of the tests, at each operating condition.
(2) For each test calculate the mean
torque ratio, m≈, as follows:
(g) Calculate the mean capacity factor,
R, at each operating condition in the test
matrix as follows:
(1) K¯ is the mean capacity factor, for
each of the tests, at each operating
condition.
(2) For each test calculate the mean
capacity factor, K¯, as follows:
Where:
T¯tur = mean output turbine torque.
T¯pum = mean input pump torque.
Where:

values for all speed and torque values
over each measurement period. Repeat
this stabilization, measurement, and
calculation for the other speed ratios
from the test matrix in order of
increasing speed ratio. Adjust the speed
ratio by increasing the output rotational
turbine speed. You may limit the upper
speed ratio to a value below 0.95 if you

a Note that these standards are not directly comparable to the standards for Heavy-Haul Tractors in § 1037.106 because GEM handles aerodynamic performance differently for the two sets of standards.
(b) Determine subcategories as
described in § 1037.230 for tractors that
are not heavy-haul tractors. For
example, the subcategory for tractors
that would otherwise be considered
Class 8 low-roof day cabs would be
Heavy Class 8 Low-Roof Day Cabs and
would be identified as HC8_DC_LR for
the GEM run.

*
*
*
Compression-ignition has the meaning
given in § 1037.101.
*
*
*
*
*
Electric vehicle means a motor vehicle
that does not include an engine, and is
powered solely by an external source of
electricity and/or solar power. Note that
this does not include hybrid electric
vehicles or fuel-cell vehicles that use a
chemical fuel such as gasoline, diesel
fuel, or hydrogen. Electric vehicles may
also be referred to as all-electric vehicles
to distinguish them from hybrid
vehicles.
*
*
*
*
*
Engine control module has the
meaning given in 40 CFR 1065.1001.
*
*

incomplete vehicle is also a heavy-duty
vehicle if it has a curb weight above
6,000 pounds or a basic vehicle frontal
area greater than 45 square feet.
*
*
*
*
*
High-strength steel has the meaning
given in § 1037.520.
*
*
*
*
*
Light-duty truck means any motor
vehicle that is not a heavy-duty vehicle,
but is:
(1) Designed primarily for purposes of
transportation of property or is a
derivation of such a vehicle; or
(2) Designed primarily for
transportation of persons and has a
capacity of more than 12 persons; or
(3) Available with special features
enabling off-street or off-highway
operation and use.
*
*
*
*
*
Low rolling resistance tire means a tire
on a vocational vehicle with a TRRL at
or below of 7.7 kg/tonne, a steer tire on
a tractor with a TRRL at or below 7.7 kg/
tonne, a drive tire on a tractor with a
TRRL at or below 8.1 kg/tonne, a tire on
a non-box trailer with a TRRL at or
below of 6.5 kg/tonne, or a tire on a box
van with a TRRL at or below of 6.0 kg/
tonne.
*
*
*
*
*
Model year means one of the
following for compliance with this part
1037. Note that manufacturers may have
other model year designations for the
same vehicle for compliance with other
requirements or for other purposes:
(1) For tractors and vocational
vehicles with a date of manufacture on
or after January 1, 2021, the vehicle’s
model year is the calendar year
corresponding to the date of
manufacture, except as follows:
(i) The vehicle’s model year may be
designated to be the year before the
calendar year corresponding to the date
of manufacture if the engine’s model
year is also from an earlier year. You
may ask us to extend yor prior model
year certificate to include such vehicles.
Note that § 1037.601(a)(2) limits the
extent to which vehicle manufacturers
may install engines built in earlier
calendar years.
(ii) The vehicle’s model year may be
designated to be the year after the
calendar year corresponding to the date
of manufacture. For example, a
manufacturer may produce a new
vehicle by installing the engine in
December 2023 and designating it to be
a model year 2024 vehicle.
(2) For trailers and for Phase 1 tractors
and vocational vehicles with a date of
manufacture before January 1, 2021,
model year means the manufacturer’s
annual new model production period,
except as restricted under this definition
and 40 CFR part 85, subpart X. It must
include January 1 of the calendar year
for which the model year is named, may
not begin before January 2 of the
previous calendar year, and it must end
by December 31 of the named calendar
year. The model year may be set to
match the calendar year corresponding
to the date of manufacture.
(i) The manufacturer who holds the
certificate of conformity for the vehicle
must assign the model year based on the
date when its manufacturing operations
are completed relative to its annual
model year period. In unusual
circumstances where completion of
your assembly is delayed, we may allow
you to assign a model year one year
earlier, provided it does not affect
which regulatory requirements will
apply.
(ii) Unless a vehicle is being shipped
to a secondary vehicle manufacturer
that will hold the certificate of
conformity, the model year must be
assigned prior to introduction of the
vehicle into U.S. commerce. The
certifying manufacturer must
redesignate the model year if it does not
complete its manufacturing operations
within the originally identified model
year. A vehicle introduced into U.S.
commerce without a model year is
deemed to have a model year equal to
the calendar year of its introduction into
U.S. commerce unless the certifying
manufacturer assigns a later date.

Tonne means metric ton, which is
exactly 1000 kg.

PART 1039—CONTROL OF EMISSIONS
FROM NEW AND IN-USE NONROAD
COMPRESSION-IGNITION ENGINES
168. The authority statement for part
1039 continues to read as follows:
■
Authority: 42 U.S.C. 7401–7671q.
169. Amend § 1039.1 by revising
paragraphs (b)(3) and (c) to read as
follows:
■
§ 1039.1 Does this part apply for my
engines?
*
*
*
*
*
(b) * * *
(3) Engines originally meeting Tier 1,
Tier 2, or Tier 3 standards as specified
in Appendix I of this part remain
subject to those standards. This includes
uncertified engines that meet standards
under 40 CFR 1068.265. Affected
engines remain subject to recall
provisions as specified in 40 CFR part
1068, subpart F, throughout the useful
life corresponding to the original
certification. Also, tampering and
defeat¥device prohibitions continue to
apply for those engines as specified in
40 CFR 1068.101.
*
*
*
*
*
(c) The definition of nonroad engine
in 40 CFR 1068.30 excludes certain
engines used in stationary applications.
These engines may be required by 40
CFR part 60, subpart IIII, to comply with
some of the provisions of this part 1039;
otherwise, these engines are only
required to comply with the
requirements in § 1039.20. In addition,
the prohibitions in 40 CFR 1068.101
restrict the use of stationary engines for
E:\FR\FM\12MYP2.SGM

28277
Federal Register / Vol. 85, No. 92 / Tuesday, May 12, 2020 / Proposed Rules
nonstationary purposes unless they are
certified to the same standards that
would apply to certain nonroad engines
for the same model year.
*
*
*
*
*
■ 170. Amend § 1039.20 by revising
paragraph (a) introductory text,
paragraphs (b)(2), (4), and (c) to read as
follows:
§ 1039.20 What requirements from this
part apply to excluded stationary engines?
*
*
*
*
*
(a) You must add a permanent label
or tag to each new engine you produce
or import that is excluded under
§ 1039.1(c) as a stationary engine and is
not required by 40 CFR part 60, subpart
IIII, to meet the requirements described
in this part 1039, or the requirements
described in 40 CFR part 1042, that are
equivalent to the requirements
applicable to marine or land-based
nonroad engines for the same model
year. To meet labeling requirements,
you must do the following things:
*
*
*
*
*
(b) * * *
(2) Include your full corporate name
and trademark.
*
*
*
*
*
(4) State: ‘‘THIS ENGINE IS
EXEMPTED FROM NONROAD
CERTIFICATION REQUIREMENTS AS
A ‘‘STATIONARY ENGINE.’’
INSTALLING OR USING THIS ENGINE
IN ANY OTHER APPLICATION MAY
BE A VIOLATION OF FEDERAL LAW
SUBJECT TO CIVIL PENALTY.’’
(c) Stationary engines required by 40
CFR part 60, subpart IIII, to meet the
requirements described in this part 1039
or 40 CFR part 1042, must meet the
labeling requirements of 40 CFR
60.4210.
■ 171. Amend § 1039.101 by revising
the introductory text and paragraph (b)
to read as follows:
§ 1039.101 What exhaust emission
standards must my engines meet after the
2014 model year?
The exhaust emission standards of
this section apply after the 2014 model
year. Certain of these standards also
apply for model year 2014 and earlier.
This section presents the full set of
emission standards that apply after all
the transition and phase-in provisions of
§ 1039.102 and § 1039.104 expire.
Section 1039.105 specifies smoke
standards.
*
*
*
*
*
(b) Emission standards for steadystate testing. Steady-state exhaust
emissions from your engines may not
exceed the applicable emission
standards in Table 1 of this section.
Measure emissions using the applicable
steady-state test procedures described in
subpart F of this part.

■ a. Revising the introductory text and
paragraph (a)(2);
■ b. Revising Tables 1, 3, and 6 in
paragraph (b); and
■ c. Revising paragraphs (d)(1), (e)(3),
(g)(1)(iv), and (g)(2).
The revisions read as follows:
The exhaust emission standards of
this section apply for 2014 and earlier
model years. See § 1039.101 for exhaust
emission standards that apply to later
model years.
(a) * * *
(2) The transient standards in this
section for gaseous pollutants do not
apply to phase-out engines that you
certify to the same numerical standards
(and FELs if the engines are certified
using ABT) for gaseous pollutants as
you certified under the Tier 3
requirements identified in Appendix I
of this part. However, except as
specified by paragraph (a)(1) of this
section, the transient PM emission
standards apply to these engines.

(e) The amended application applies
starting with the date you submit the

application and before we make a
decision under paragraph (d) of this
section. However, if we determine that
the affected engines do not meet
applicable requirements, we will notify
you to cease production of the engines
and may require you to recall the
engines at no expense to the owner.
Choosing to produce engines under this
paragraph (e) is deemed to be consent to
recall all engines that we determine do
not meet applicable emission standards
or other requirements and to remedy the
nonconformity at no expense to the
owner. If you do not provide
information required under paragraph
(c) of this section within 30 days after
we request it, you must stop producing
the new or modified engines.
(2) If you amend your application to
make the amended application correct
and complete, these changes do not
apply retroactively. Also, if we
determine that your amended
application is not correct and complete,
or otherwise does not conform to the
regulation, we will notify you and
describe how to address the error.

deterioration factors for an engine
family with established technology
based on engineering analysis instead of
testing. Engines certified to a NOX +
NMHC standard or FEL greater than the
Tier 3 NOX + NMHC standard described
in Appendix I of this part are
considered to rely on established
technology for gaseous emission control,
except that this does not include any
engines that use exhaust-gas
recirculation or aftertreatment. In most
cases, technologies used to meet the
Tier 1 and Tier 2 emission standards
would be considered to be established
technology.

(a) If we determine an application is
complete and shows that the engine
family meets all the requirements of this
part and the Act, we will issue a
certificate of conformity for the engine
family for that model year. We may
make the approval subject to additional
conditions.
(b) We may deny an application for
certification if we determine that an

engine family fails to comply with
emission standards or other
requirements of this part or the Clean
Air Act. We will base our decision on
all available information. If we deny an
application, we will explain why in
writing.
(c) In addition, we may deny your
application or suspend or revoke a
certificate of conformity if you do any
of the following:
(1) Refuse to comply with any testing
or reporting requirements.
(2) Submit false or incomplete
information. This includes doing
anything after submitting an application
that causes submitted information to be
false or incomplete.
(3) Cause any test data to become
inaccurate.
(4) Deny us from completing
authorized activities (see 40 CFR
1068.20). This includes a failure to
provide reasonable assistance.
(5) Produce engines for importation
into the United States at a location
where local law prohibits us from
carrying out authorized activities.
(6) Fail to supply requested
information or amend an application to
include all engines being produced.
(7) Take any action that otherwise
circumvents the intent of the Act or this
part, with respect to an engine family.
(d) We may void a certificate of
conformity for an engine family if you
fail to keep records, send reports, or give
us information as required under this
part or the Act. Note that these are also
violations of 40 CFR 1068.101(a)(2).
(e) We may void a certificate of
conformity for an engine family if we
find that you intentionally submitted
false or incomplete information. This
includes doing anything after
submitting an application that causes
submitted information to be false or
incomplete.
(f) If we deny an application or
suspend, revoke, or void a certificate,
you may ask for a hearing (see

(b) Subpart C of this part describes
how to test and certify dual-fuel and
flexible-fuel engines. Some multi-fuel
engines may not fit either of those
defined terms. For such engines, we will
determine whether it is most
appropriate to treat them as single-fuel
engines, dual-fuel engines, or flexiblefuel engines based on the range of
possible and expected fuel mixtures. For
example, an engine might burn natural

gas but initiate combustion with a pilot
injection of diesel fuel. If the engine is
designed to operate with a single fueling
algorithm (i.e., fueling rates are fixed at
a given engine speed and load
condition), we would generally treat it
as a single-fuel engine. In this context,
the combination of diesel fuel and
natural gas would be its own fuel type.
If the engine is designed to also operate
on diesel fuel alone, we would generally
treat it as a dual-fuel engine. If the
engine is designed to operate on varying
mixtures of the two fuels, we would
generally treat it as a flexible-fuel
engine. To the extent that requirements
vary for the different fuels or fuel
mixtures, we may apply the more
stringent requirements.

introductory text, and paragraph (j)(1) to
read as follows:
§ 1039.625 What requirements apply under
the program for equipment-manufacturer
flexibility?
The provisions of this section allow
equipment manufacturers to produce
equipment with engines that are subject
to less stringent emission standards after
the Tier 4 emission standards begin to
apply. To be eligible to use these
provisions, you must follow all the
instructions in this section. See
§ 1039.626 for requirements that apply
specifically to companies that
manufacture equipment outside the
United States and to companies that
import such equipment without
manufacturing it. Engines and
equipment you produce under this
section are exempt from the
prohibitions in 40 CFR 1068.101(a)(1),
subject to the provisions of this section.
*
*
*
*
*
(d) * * *
(4) You may start using the
allowances under this section for
engines that are not yet subject to Tier
4 standards, as long as the seven-year
period for using allowances under the

Tier 2 or Tier 3 program has expired.
Table 3 of this section shows the years
for which this applies. To use these
early allowances, you must use engines
that meet the emission standards
described in paragraph (e) of this
section. You must also count these units
or calculate these percentages as
described in paragraph (c) of this
section and apply them toward the total
number or percentage of equipment
with exempted engines we allow for the
Tier 4 standards as described in
paragraph (b) of this section. The
maximum number of cumulative early
allowances under this paragraph (d)(4)
is 10 percent under the percent-ofproduction allowance or 100 units
under the small-volume allowance. For
example, if you produce 5 percent of
your equipment with engines between
130 and 560 kW that use allowances
under this paragraph (d)(4) in 2009, you
may use up to an additional 5 percent
of your allowances in 2010. If you use
allowances for 5 percent of your
equipment in both 2009 and 2010, your
80 percent allowance for 2011–2017 in
the 130–560 kW power category
decreases to 70 percent. Manufacturers
using allowances under this paragraph
(d)(4) must comply with the notification
and reporting requirements specified in
paragraph (g) of this section.
*
*
*
*
*
(e) * * *
(1) If you are using the provisions of
paragraph (d)(4) of this section, engines
must meet the applicable Tier 1 or Tier
2 emission standards described in
Appendix I of this part.
*
*
*
*
*
(3) In all other cases, engines at or
above 56 kW and at or below 560 kW
must meet the appropriate Tier 3
standards described in Appendix I of
this part. Engines below 56 kW and
engines above 560 kW must meet the

(j) Provisions for engine
manufacturers. As an engine
manufacturer, you may produce
exempted engines as needed under this
section. You do not have to request this
exemption for your engines, but you
must have written assurance from
equipment manufacturers that they need
a certain number of exempted engines
under this section. Send us an annual
report of the engines you produce under
this section, as described in
§ 1039.250(a). Exempt engines must
meet the emission standards in
paragraph (e) of this section and you
must meet all the requirements of 40
CFR 1068.265, except that engines
produced under the provisions of
paragraph (a)(2) of this section must be
identical in all material respects to
engines previously certified under this
part 1039. If you show under 40 CFR
1068.265(c) that the engines are
identical in all material respects to
engines that you have previously
certified to one or more FELs above the
standards specified in paragraph (e) of
this section, you must supply sufficient
credits for these engines. Calculate these
credits under subpart H of this part
using the previously certified FELs and
the alternate standards. You must meet
the labeling requirements in § 1039.135,

(c) Mode caps. Measured NOX
emissions from Tier 3 engines may not
exceed the cap specified in this
paragraph (c) for any applicable dutycycle test modes with power greater
than 10 percent maximum engine
power. Calculate the mode cap by
multiplying the applicable Tier 3 NOX
standard by 1.5 and rounding to the
nearest 0.1 g/kW-hr. Note that mode
caps do not apply for pollutants other
than NOX and do not apply for any
modes of operation outside of the
applicable duty cycles in § 1042.505.

(g) On-off controls for engines on
Category 3 vessels. Manufacturers may
equip Category 3 propulsion engines
with features that disable Tier 3 NOX
emission controls subject to the
provisions of this paragraph (g). For
auxiliary engines allowed to use on-off
controls as specified in § 1042.650(d),
read ‘‘Tier 2’’ to mean ‘‘IMO Tier II’’ and
read ‘‘Tier 3’’ to mean ‘‘IMO Tier III’’.
(1) Features that disable Tier 3 NOX
emission controls are considered to be
AECDs whether or not they meet the
definition of an AECD. For example,
manually operated on-off features are
AECDs under this paragraph (g). The
features must be identified in your
application for certification as AECDs.
For purposes of this paragraph (g), the
term ‘‘features that disable Tier 3
emission controls’’ includes (but is not
limited to) any combination of the
following that cause the engine’s

emissions to exceed any Tier 3 emission
standard:
(i) Bypassing of exhaust
aftertreatment.
(ii) Reducing or eliminating flow of
reductant to an SCR system.
(iii) Modulating engine calibration in
a manner that increases engine-out
emissions of a regulated pollutant.
(2) You must demonstrate that the
AECD will not disable NOX emission
controls while operating shoreward of
the boundaries of the North American
ECA and the U.S. Caribbean Sea ECA.
You must demonstrate that the AECD
will not disable emission control while
operating in these waters. (Note: See the
regulations in 40 CFR part 1043 for
requirements related to operation in
ECAs, including foreign ECAs.)
Compliance with this paragraph will
generally require that the AECD
operation be based on Global
Positioning System (GPS) inputs. We
may consider any relevant information
to determine whether your AECD
conforms to this paragraph (g).
(3) The onboard computer log must
record in nonvolatile computer memory
all incidents of engine operation with
the Tier 3 NOX emission controls
disabled.
(4) The engine must comply with the
Tier 2 NOX standard when the Tier 3
NOX emission controls are disabled.

All the provisions of § 1042.605 or
§ 1042.610 apply as if those engines
were certified to emission standards
under 40 CFR part 1039. Similarly,
engine manufacturers, vessel
manufacturers, and marine equipment
manufacturers must comply with all the
provisions of 40 CFR part 1039 as if
those engines were installed in landbased equipment. The following
provisions apply for engine
manufacturers shipping engines to
vessel manufacturers or marine
equipment manufacturers under this
paragraph (j):
(1) You must label the engine as
described in 40 CFR 1039.135, but
identify the engine family name as it
was last certified under 40 CFR part
1039 and include the following alternate
compliance statement: ‘‘THIS ENGINE

(e) The amended application applies
starting with the date you submit the
amended application, as follows:
(1) For engine families already
covered by a certificate of conformity,
you may start producing the new or
modified engine configuration anytime
after you send us your amended
application and before we make a
decision under paragraph (d) of this
section. However, if we determine that
the affected engines do not meet
applicable requirements, we will notify
you to cease production of the engines
and may require you to recall the
engines at no expense to the owner.
Choosing to produce engines under this
paragraph (e) is deemed to be consent to
recall all engines that we determine do
not meet applicable emission standards
or other requirements and to remedy the
nonconformity at no expense to the
owner. If you do not provide
information required under paragraph
(c) of this section within 30 days after
we request it, you must stop producing
the new or modified engines.

(3) The data show that the emissiondata engine would meet all the
requirements that apply to the engine
family covered by the application for
certification. For engines originally
tested to demonstrate compliance with
Tier 1 or Tier 2 standards, you may
consider those test procedures to be
equivalent to the procedures we specify
in subpart F of this part.

■ 197. Revise § 1042.255 to read as
follows:
§ 1042.255
EPA decisions.
(a) If we determine an application is
complete and shows that the engine
family meets all the requirements of this
part and the Clean Air Act, we will
issue a certificate of conformity for the
engine family for that model year. We
may make the approval subject to
additional conditions.
(b) We may deny an application for
certification if we determine that an
engine family fails to comply with
emission standards or other
requirements of this part or the Clean
Air Act. We will base our decision on
all available information. If we deny an
application, we will explain why in
writing.
(c) In addition, we may deny your
application or suspend or revoke a
certificate of conformity if you do any
of the following:
(1) Refuse to comply with any testing
or reporting requirements.
(2) Submit false or incomplete
information. This includes doing
anything after submitting an application
that causes submitted information to be
false or incomplete.
(3) Cause any test data to become
inaccurate.
(4) Deny us from completing
authorized activities (see 40 CFR
1068.20). This includes a failure to
provide reasonable assistance.
(5) Produce engines for importation
into the United States at a location
where local law prohibits us from
carrying out authorized activities.

(6) Fail to supply requested
information or amend an application to
include all engines being produced.
(7) Take any action that otherwise
circumvents the intent of the Clean Air
Act or this part, with respect to an
engine family.
(d) We may void a certificate of
conformity for an engine family if you
fail to keep records, send reports, or give
us information as required under this
part or the Clean Air Act. Note that
these are also violations of 40 CFR
1068.101(a)(2).
(e) We may void a certificate of
conformity for an engine family if we
find that you intentionally submitted
false or incomplete information. This
includes doing anything after
submitting an application that causes
submitted information to be false or
incomplete after submission.
(f) If we deny an application or
suspend, revoke, or void a certificate,
you may ask for a hearing (see
§ 1042.920).
■ 198. Amend § 1042.302 by revising
paragraph (a) to read as follows:
§ 1042.302 Applicability of this subpart for
Category 3 engines.
*
*
*
*
*
(a) You must test each Category 3
engine at the sea trial of the vessel in
which it is installed or within the first
300 hours of operation, whichever
occurs first. This may involve testing a
fully assembled production engine
before it is installed in the vessel. For
engines with on-off controls, you may
omit testing to demonstrate compliance
with Tier 2 standards if the engine does
not rely on aftertreatment when Tier 3
emission controls are disabled. Since
you must test each engine, the
provisions of §§ 1042.310 and
1042.315(b) do not apply for Category 3
engines. If we determine that an engine
failure under this subpart is caused by
defective components or design
deficiencies, we may revoke or suspend
your certificate for the engine family as
described in § 1042.340. If we determine
that an engine failure under this subpart
is caused only by incorrect assembly,
we may suspend your certificate for the
engine family as described in
§ 1042.325. If the engine fails, you may
continue operating only to complete the
sea trial and return to port. It is a
violation of 40 CFR 1068.101(b)(1) to
operate the vessel further until you
remedy the cause of failure. Each twohour period of such operation
constitutes a separate offense. A
violation lasting less than two hours
constitutes a single offense.

jbell on DSKJLSW7X2PROD with PROPOSALS2
§ 1042.605 Dressing engines already
certified to other standards for nonroad or
heavy-duty highway engines for marine
use.
(a) General provisions. If you are an
engine manufacturer (including
someone who marinizes a land-based
engine), this section allows you to
introduce new marine engines into U.S.
commerce if they are already certified to
the requirements that apply to
compression-ignition engines under 40
CFR parts 85 and 86 or 40 CFR part
1033 or 1039 for the appropriate model
year. If you comply with all the
provisions of this section, we consider
the certificate issued under 40 CFR part
86, 1033, or 1039 for each engine to also
be a valid certificate of conformity
under this part 1042 for its model year,
without a separate application for
certification under the requirements of
this part 1042. This section does not
apply for Category 3 engines.
(b) Vessel-manufacturer provisions. If
you are not an engine manufacturer, you
may install an engine certified for the
appropriate model year under 40 CFR
part 86, 1033, or 1039 in a marine vessel
as long as you do not make any of the
changes described in paragraph (d)(3) of
this section and you meet the
requirements of paragraph (e) of this
section. If you modify the non-marine
engine in any of the ways described in
paragraph (d)(3) of this section, we will
consider you a manufacturer of a new
marine engine. Such engine
modifications prevent you from using
the provisions of this section.
(c) Liability. Engines for which you
meet the requirements of this section are
exempt from all the requirements and
prohibitions of this part, except for
those specified in this section. Engines
exempted under this section must meet
all the applicable requirements from 40
CFR parts 85 and 86 or 40 CFR part
1033 or 1039. This paragraph (c) applies
to engine manufacturers, vessel
manufacturers that use such an engine,
and all other persons as if the engine
were used in its originally intended
application. The prohibited acts of 40
CFR 1068.101(a)(1) apply to these new
engines and vessels; however, we
consider the certificate issued under 40
CFR part 86, 1033, or 1039 for each
engine to also be a valid certificate of
conformity under this part 1042 for its
model year. If we make a determination
that these engines do not conform to the
regulations during their useful life, we
may require you to recall them under 40
CFR part 85 or 1068.

(a) General provisions. If you are an
engine manufacturer, this section allows
you to introduce new marine engines
into U.S. commerce if they are already
certified to the requirements that apply
to compression-ignition engines under
40 CFR part 1039 for the appropriate
model year. If you comply with all the
provisions of this section, we consider
the certificate issued under 40 CFR part
1039 for each engine to also be a valid
certificate of conformity under this part
1042 for its model year, without a
separate application for certification

under the requirements of this part
1042.
*
*
*
*
*
(c) Liability. Engines for which you
meet the requirements of this section are
exempt from all the requirements and
prohibitions of this part, except for
those specified in this section. Engines
exempted under this section must meet
all the applicable requirements from 40
CFR part 1039. This paragraph (c)
applies to engine manufacturers, vessel
manufacturers that use such an engine,
and all other persons as if the engine
were used in its originally intended
application. The prohibited acts of 40
CFR 1068.101(a)(1) apply to these new
engines and vessels; however, we
consider the certificate issued under 40
CFR part 1039 for each engine to also be
a valid certificate of conformity under
this part 1042 for its model year. If we
make a determination that these engines
do not conform to the regulations during
their useful life, we may require you to
recall them under 40 CFR part 1068.
(d) * * *
(1) The marine engine must be
identical in all material respects to a
land-based engine covered by a valid
certificate of conformity for the
appropriate model year showing that it
meets emission standards for engines of
that power rating under 40 CFR part
1039.
*
*
*
*
*
(f) Failure to comply. If your engines
do not meet the criteria listed in
paragraph (d) of this section, they will
be subject to the standards,
requirements, and prohibitions of this
part 1042 and the certificate issued
under 40 CFR part 1039 will not be
deemed to also be a certificate issued
under this part 1042. Introducing these
engines into U.S. commerce as marine
engines without a valid exemption or
certificate of conformity under this part
1042 violates the prohibitions in 40 CFR
1068.101(a)(1).
(g) Participation in averaging, banking
and trading. Engines using this
exemption may not generate or use
emission credits under this part 1042.
These engines may generate credits
under the ABT provisions in 40 CFR
part 1039, as applicable. These engines
must use emission credits under 40 CFR
part 1039 as applicable if they are
certified to an FEL that exceeds an
emission standard.

*
*
*
*
(a) This paragraph (a) applies instead
of the provisions of 40 CFR
1068.240(b)(2) for installing new marine
engines in vessels that are not ‘‘new
vessels’’. The prohibitions in 40 CFR
1068.101(a)(1) do not apply to a new
replacement engine if all the following
conditions are met:
(1) You use good engineering
judgment to determine that no engine
certified to the current requirements of
this part is produced by any
manufacturer with the appropriate
physical or performance characteristics
to repower the vessel. We have
determined that Tier 4 engines with
aftertreatment technology do not have
the appropriate physical or performance
characteristics to replace uncertified
engines or engines certified to emission
standards that are less stringent than the
Tier 4 standards.
*
*
*
*
*
(3) Send us a report by September 30
of each year describing your engine
shipments under this section from the
preceding calendar year. Your report
must include all the following things
and be signed by an authorized
representative of your company:
(i) Identify the number of Category 1
and Category 2 exempt replacement
engines that meet Tier 1, Tier 2, or Tier
3 standards, or that meet no EPA
standards. Count engines separately for
each tier of standards.
(ii) Identify the number of engines
that have been shipped (directly or
indirectly) to a vessel owner. This
includes engines shipped to anyone
intending to install engines on behalf of
a specific engine owner. Also include
commercial Tier 3 engines with
maximum engine power at or above 600
kW even if they have not been shipped
to or designated for a specific vessel
owner in the specified time frame.
(iii) Describe how you made the
determinations described in paragraph
(a)(1) of this section for each Category 1
and Category 2 exempt replacement
engine for each vessel during the
preceding year. For Tier 3 replacement
engines at or above 600 kW, describe
why any engines certified to Tier 4
standards without aftertreatment are not
suitable.
(iv) Identify the number of Category 3
exempt replacement engines. We may
require you to describe how you made
the determinations described in
paragraph (a)(1) of this section for each
engine.
(v) Include the following statement:
I certify that the statements and
information in the enclosed document
VerDate Sep<11>2014

are true, accurate, and complete to the
best of my knowledge. I am aware that
there are significant civil and criminal
penalties for submitting false statements
and information, or omitting required
statements and information.
*
*
*
*
*
(f) The provisions of 40 CFR
1068.240(c) allow you to ship a limited
number of exempt replacement engines
to vessel owners or distributors without
making the determinations described in
paragraph (a) of this section. Note that
such engines do not count toward the
production limits of 40 CFR 1068.240(c)
if you meet all the requirements of 40
CFR 1068.240(b) and this section by the
due date for the annual report. You may
count Tier 3 commercial marine
replacement engines at or above 600 kW
as tracked engines under 40 CFR
1068.240(b) even if they have not been
shipped to or designated for a specific
vessel owner in the specified time
frame.
(g) In unusual circumstances, you
may ask us to allow you to apply the
replacement engine exemption of this
section for repowering a vessel that
becomes a ‘‘new vessel’’ under
§ 1042.901 as a result of modifications,
as follows:
(1) You must demonstrate that no
manufacturer produces an engine
certified to Tier 4 standards with the
appropriate physical or performance
characteristics to repower the vessel. We
will consider concerns about the size of
the replacement engine and its
compatibility with vessel components
relative to the overall scope of the
project.
(2) Exempt replacement engines
under this paragraph (g) must meet the
Tier 3 standards specified in § 1042.101
(or the Tier 2 standards if there are no
Tier 3 standards).
(3) We will not approve a request for
an exemption from the Tier 3 standards
for any engines.
(4) You may not use the exemption
provisions for untracked replacement
engines under 40 CFR 1068.240(c) for
repowering a vessel that becomes a
‘‘new vessel’’ under § 1042.901 as a
result of modifications.

Migratory vessels.
The provisions of paragraphs (a)
through (c) of this section apply for
Category 1 and Category 2 engines,
including auxiliary engines installed on
vessels with Category 3 propulsion
engines; these provisions do not apply
for any Category 3 engines. All engines
exempted under this section must

(4) Operating a vessel containing an
engine exempted under this paragraph
(b) violates the prohibitions in 40 CFR
1068.101(a)(1) if the vessel is not in full
compliance with applicable
requirements for international safety
specified in paragraph (b)(1)(i) of this
section.

(b) Required testing. The emissiondata engine must be tested as specified
in subpart F of this part. Testing engineout emissions to simulate operation
with disabled Tier 3 emission controls
must simulate backpressure and other
parameters as needed to represent inuse operation with an SCR catalyst. The
catalyst material or other aftertreatment
device must be tested under conditions
that accurately represent actual engine
conditions for the test points. This
catalyst or aftertreatment testing may be
performed on a bench scale.

locomotives under 40 CFR part 1033,
you may also certify the system under
this part 1042, according to the
provisions of this section.

(3) For an uncertified marine engine
excluded under § 1042.5 that is later
subject to this part 1042 as a result of
being installed in a different vessel,
model year means the calendar year in
which the engine was installed in the
non-excluded vessel. For a marine
engine excluded under § 1042.5 that is
later subject to this part 1042 as a result
of reflagging the vessel, model year
means the calendar year in which the
engine was originally manufactured. For
a marine engine that becomes new
under paragraph (7) of the definition of
‘‘new marine engine,’’ model year
means the calendar year in which the
engine was originally manufactured.

Previous Emission Standards
(a) The following standards, which EPA
originally adopted under 40 CFR part 91,
apply to outboard and personal watercraft
engines produced from model year 2006
through 2009:
(1) For engines at or below 4.3 kW, the HC
+ NOX standard is 81.00 g/kW-hr.
(2) For engines above 4.3 kW, the following
HC + NOX standard applies:
HC + NOX standard = (151 + 557/P0.9) · 0.250
+ 6.00
Where:
STD = The HC + NOX emission standard, in
g/kW-hr.
P = The average power of an engine family,
in kW.
(b) Table 1 of this appendix describes the
phase-in standards for outboard and personal
watercraft engines for model years 1998
through 2005. For engines with maximum
engine power above 4.3 kW, the standard is

paragraph (a)(1)(iv) to read as follows:
(a) * * *
(1) For engine families with projected
U.S.-directed production volume of at
least 1,600, the test periods are
consecutive quarters (3 months).
However, if your annual production
period is not 12 months long, you may
take the following alternative approach
to define quarterly test periods:
*
*

(d) Fuels. Use the fuels meeting the
following specifications:
(1) Exhaust. Use the fuels and
lubricants specified in 40 CFR part
1065, subpart H, for all the exhaust
testing we require in this part. For
service accumulation, use the test fuel
or any commercially available fuel that
is representative of the fuel that in-use
engines will use. The following
provisions apply for using specific fuel
types:
(i) For gasoline-fueled engines, use
the grade of gasoline specified in 40
CFR 1065.710(c) for general testing. You
may alternatively use ethanol-blended
gasoline meeting the specifications
described in 40 CFR 1065.710(b) for
general testing without our advance
approval. If you use the ethanol-blended
fuel for certifying a given engine family,
you may also use it for production-line
testing or any other testing you perform
for that engine family under this part. If
you use the ethanol-blended fuel for
certifying a given engine family, we may
use the ethanol-blended fuel or the
specified neat gasoline test fuel with
that engine family.
(ii) For diesel-fueled engines, use
either low-sulfur diesel fuel or ultra
low-sulfur diesel fuel meeting the
specifications in 40 CFR 1065.703. If
you use sulfur-sensitive technology as
defined in 40 CFR 1039.801 and you
measure emissions using ultra lowsulfur diesel fuel, you must add a
permanent label near the fuel inlet with
the following statement: ‘‘ULTRA LOW
SULFUR FUEL ONLY’’.

in 40 CFR 1065.710(b), or the fuel
specified in 40 CFR 1065.710(c) blended
with 10 percent ethanol by volume. As
an alternative, you may use Fuel CE10,
which is Fuel C as specified in ASTM
D 471–98 (see 40 CFR 1060.810)
blended with 10 percent ethanol by
volume.
(ii) For the permeation measurement
test in § 1051.515(b), use the fuel
specified in 40 CFR 1065.710(c). As an
alternative, you may use any of the fuels
specified in paragraph (d)(2)(i) of this
section.
(3) Fuel Hose Permeation. Use the fuel
specified in 40 CFR 1065.710(b), or the
fuel specified in 40 CFR 1065.710(c)
blended with 10 percent ethanol by
volume for permeation testing of fuel
lines. As an alternative, you may use
Fuel CE10, which is Fuel C as specified

Authority: 42 U.S.C. 7401–7671q.
231. Amend § 1054.1 by revising
paragraphs (a)(1) and (5), (c), and (d) to
read as follows:
■
§ 1054.1 Does this part apply for my
engines and equipment?
(a) * * *
(1) The requirements of this part
related to exhaust emissions apply to
new, nonroad spark-ignition engines
with maximum engine power at or
below 19 kW. This includes auxiliary
marine spark-ignition engines.
*
*
*
*
*
(5) We specify provisions in
§ 1054.145(f) and in § 1054.740 that
allow for meeting the requirements of
this part before the dates shown in
Table 1 to this section. Engines, fuelsystem components, or equipment
certified to these standards are subject
to all the requirements of this part as if
these optional standards were
mandatory.

original certification. Also, tampering
and defeat-device prohibitions continue
to apply for those engines as specified
in 40 CFR 1068.101.
(d) The regulations in this part 1054
optionally apply to engines with
maximum engine power at or below 30
kW and with displacement at or below
1,000 cubic centimeters that would
otherwise be covered by 40 CFR part
1048. See 40 CFR 1048.615 for

■ 232. Revise § 1054.2 to read as
follows:
§ 1054.2 Who is responsible for
compliance?
(a) The requirements and prohibitions
of this part apply to manufacturers of
engines and equipment, as described in
§ 1054.1. The requirements of this part
are generally addressed to
manufacturers subject to this part’s
requirements. The term ‘‘you’’ generally
means the certifying manufacturer. For
provisions related to exhaust emissions,
this generally means the engine
manufacturer, especially for issues
related to certification (including
production-line testing, reporting, etc.).
For provisions related to certification
with respect to evaporative emissions,
this generally means the equipment
manufacturer. Note that for engines that
become new after being placed into
service (such as engines converted from
highway or stationary use), the
requirements that normally apply for
manufacturers of freshly manufactured
engines apply to the importer or any
other entity we allow to obtain a
certificate of conformity.
(b) Equipment manufacturers must
meet applicable requirements as
described in § 1054.20. Engine
manufacturers that assemble an engine’s
complete fuel system are considered to
be the equipment manufacturer with
respect to evaporative emissions (see 40
CFR 1060.5). Note that certification
requirements for component
manufacturers are described in 40 CFR
part 1060.

(b) Tank permeation. Fuel tanks must
meet the permeation requirements
specified in 40 CFR 1060.103. These
requirements apply for handheld
equipment starting in the 2010 model
year, except that they apply starting in
the 2011 model year for structurally
integrated nylon fuel tanks, in the 2012
model year for handheld equipment
using nonhandheld engines, and in the
2013 model year for all small-volume
emission families. For nonhandheld
equipment using engines at or below 80
cc, the requirements of this paragraph
(b) apply starting in the 2012 model
year. You may generate or use emission
credits to show compliance with the
requirements of this paragraph (b) under
the averaging, banking, and trading
program as described in subpart H of
this part. FEL caps apply as specified in
§ 1054.112(b)(1) through (3) starting in
the 2015 model year.

(c) Components covered. The
emission-related warranty covers all
components whose failure would
increase an engine’s emissions of any
regulated pollutant, including
components listed in 40 CFR part 1068,
Appendix I, and components from any
other system you develop to control
emissions. The emission-related
warranty covers these components even
if another company produces the
component. Your emission-related
warranty does not need to cover
components whose failure would not
increase an engine’s emissions of any
regulated pollutant.
*
*
*
*
*
■ 238. Amend § 1054.125 by revising
the introductory text and paragraphs (c)
and (e) to read as follows:
§ 1054.125 What maintenance instructions
must I give to buyers?
Give the ultimate purchaser of each
new engine written instructions for
properly maintaining and using the
engine, including the emission control
system as described in this section. The
maintenance instructions also apply to
service accumulation on your emissiondata engines as described in § 1054.245
and in 40 CFR part 1065.
*
*
*
*
*
(c) Special maintenance. You may
specify more frequent maintenance to
address problems related to special
situations, such as atypical engine
operation. You must clearly state that
this additional maintenance is
associated with the special situation you
are addressing. You may also address
maintenance of low-use engines (such
as recreational or stand-by engines) by
specifying the maintenance interval in
terms of calendar months or years in
addition to your specifications in terms
of engine operating hours. All special
maintenance instructions must be
consistent with good engineering
judgment. We may disapprove your
maintenance instructions if we
determine that you have specified
special maintenance steps to address
engine operation that is not atypical, or
that the maintenance is unlikely to
occur in use. For example, this
paragraph (c) does not allow you to
design engines that require special
maintenance for a certain type of
expected operation. If we determine that
certain maintenance items do not
qualify as special maintenance under
this paragraph (c), you may identify this
as recommended additional
E:\FR\FM\12MYP2.SGM

maintenance under paragraph (b) of this
section.
*
*
*
*
*
(e) Maintenance that is not emissionrelated. For maintenance unrelated to
emission controls, you may schedule
any amount of inspection or
maintenance. You may also take these
inspection or maintenance steps during
service accumulation on your emissiondata engines, as long as they are
reasonable and technologically
necessary. This might include adding
engine oil, changing fuel or oil filters,
servicing engine-cooling systems, and
adjusting idle speed, governor, engine
bolt torque, valve lash, or injector lash.
You may not perform this nonemissionrelated maintenance on emission-data
engines more often than the least
frequent intervals that you recommend
to the ultimate purchaser.
*
*
*

instructions when installing a certified
engine in a piece of equipment violates
federal law (40 CFR 1068.105(b)),
subject to fines or other penalties as
described in the Clean Air Act.’’
*
*
*
*
*
(5) Describe how your certification is
limited for any type of application. For
example, if you certify engines only for
rated-speed applications, tell equipment
manufacturers that the engine must not
be installed in equipment involving
intermediate-speed operation. Also, if
your wintertime engines are not
certified to the otherwise applicable
HC+NOX standards, tell equipment
manufacturers that the engines must be
installed in equipment that is used only
in wintertime.

*
■ 241. Revise § 1054.145 to read as
follows:
§ 1054.145 Are there interim provisions
that apply only for a limited time?
The provisions in this section apply
instead of other provisions in this part.
This section describes how and when
these interim provisions apply.
(a)–(b) [Reserved]
(c) Special provisions for handheld
engines. Handheld engines subject to
Phase 3 emission standards must meet
the standards at or above barometric
pressures of 96.0 kPa in the standard
configuration and are not required to
meet emission standards at lower
barometric pressures. This is intended
to allow testing under most weather
conditions at all altitudes up to 1,100
feet above sea level. In your application
for certification, identify the altitude
above which you rely on an altitude kit
and describe your plan for making
information and parts available such
that you would reasonably expect that
altitude kits would be widely used at all
such altitudes.
(d) Alignment of model years for
exhaust and evaporative standards.
Evaporative emission standards
generally apply based on the model year
of the equipment, which is determined
by the equipment’s date of final
assembly. However, in the first year of
new emission standards, equipment
manufacturers may apply evaporative
emission standards based on the model
year of the engine as shown on the
engine’s emission control information
label. For example, for the fuel line
permeation standards starting in 2012,
equipment manufacturers may order a
batch of 2011 model year engines for
installation in 2012 model year
equipment, subject to the antistockpiling provisions of 40 CFR
1068.105(a). The equipment with the
2011 model year engines would not
need to meet fuel line permeation
standards, as long as the equipment is
fully assembled by December 31, 2012.
(e) [Reserved]
(f) Early banking for evaporative
emission standards—handheld
equipment manufacturers. You may
earn emission credits for handheld
equipment you produce before the
evaporative emission standards of
§ 1054.110 apply. To do this, your
equipment must use fuel tanks with a
PO 00000

family emission limit below 1.5 g/m2/
day (or 2.5 g/m2/day for testing at 40 °C).
Calculate your credits as described in
§ 1054.706 based on the difference
between the family emission limit and
1.5 g/m2/day (or 2.5 g/m2/day for testing
at 40 °C).
(g) through (i) [Reserved]
(j) Continued use of 40 CFR part 90
test data. You may continue to use data
based on the test procedures that apply
for engines built before the requirements
of this part 1054 start to apply if we
allow you to use carryover emission
data under 40 CFR 1054.235(d) for your
emission family. You may also use those
test procedures for measuring exhaust
emissions for production-line testing
with any engine family whose
certification is based on testing with
those procedures. For any EPA testing,
we will rely on the procedures
described in subpart F of this part, even
if you used carryover data based on
older test procedures as allowed under
this paragraph (j).
(k)–(m) [Reserved]
(n) California test fuel. You may
perform testing with a fuel meeting the
requirements for certifying the engine in
California instead of the fuel specified
in § 1054.501(b)(2), as follows:
(1) You may certify individual engine

you send us your amended application
and before we make a decision under
paragraph (d) of this section. However,
if we determine that the affected
configurations do not meet applicable
requirements, we will notify you to
cease production of the configurations
and may require you to recall the engine
or equipment at no expense to the
owner. Choosing to produce engines
under this paragraph (e) is deemed to be
consent to recall all engines or
equipment that we determine do not
meet applicable emission standards or
other requirements and to remedy the
nonconformity at no expense to the
owner. If you do not provide
information required under paragraph
(c) of this section within 30 days after
we request it, you must stop producing
the new or modified engine or

(2) If you amend your application to
make the amended application correct

or otherwise does not conform to the
regulation, we will notify you and
describe how to address the error.
(f) You may ask us to approve a
change to your FEL with respect to
exhaust emissions in certain cases after
the start of production. The changed
FEL may not apply to engines you have
already introduced into U.S. commerce,
except as described in this paragraph (f).
If we approve a changed FEL after the

Similarly, you may modify in-use
engines as described in your amended
application for certification and
consider those engines to be in a
certified configuration if we approve a
new or modified engine configuration at
any time under paragraph (d) of this

(a) Select an emission-data engine
from each engine family for testing as
described in 40 CFR 1065.401. Select a
configuration and set adjustable
parameters in a way that is most likely
to exceed the HC+NOX standard, using
good engineering judgment.
Configurations must be tested as they
will be produced, including installed
governors, if applicable.
(b) Test your emission-data engines
using the procedures and equipment
specified in subpart F of this part. In the
case of dual-fuel engines, measure
emissions when operating with each
type of fuel for which you intend to
certify the engine. In the case of flexiblefuel engines, measure emissions when
operating with the fuel mixture that is
most likely to cause the engine to
exceed the applicable HC+NOX
emission standard, though you may ask
us to instead perform tests with both
fuels separately if you can show that
intermediate mixtures are not likely to
occur in use.
(c) We may perform confirmatory
testing by measuring emissions from
any of your emission-data engines or
other engines from the emission family,
as follows:
(1) We may decide to do the testing
at your plant or any other facility. If we
do this, you must deliver the engine to
a test facility we designate. The engine
you provide must include appropriate
manifolds, aftertreatment devices,
electronic control units, and other
emission-related components not
normally attached directly to the engine
block. If we do the testing at your plant,
you must schedule it as soon as possible
and make available the instruments,
personnel, and equipment we need.
(2) If we measure emissions on one of
your engines, the results of that testing
become the official emission results for
the engine.
(3) We may set the adjustable
parameters of your engine to any point
within the physically adjustable ranges
(see § 1054.115(b)).
(4) Before we test one of your engines,
we may calibrate it within normal
production tolerances for anything we
do not consider an adjustable parameter.
For example, this would apply for a
parameter that is subject to production
variability because it is adjustable
during production, but is not considered
VerDate Sep<11>2014
22:43 May 11, 2020

an adjustable parameter (as defined in
§ 1054.801) because it is permanently
sealed.
(d) You may ask to use carryover
emission data from a previous model
year instead of doing new tests, but only
if all the following are true:
(1) The emission family from the
previous model year differs from the
current emission family only with
respect to model year, items identified
in § 1054.225(a), or other characteristics
unrelated to emissions. We may waive
this criterion for differences we
determine not to be relevant.
(2) The emission-data engine from the
previous model year remains the
appropriate emission-data engine under
paragraph (b) of this section.
(3) The data show that the emissiondata engine would meet all the
requirements that apply to the emission
family covered by the application for
certification.
*

■ 246. Amend § 1054.240 by revising
paragraphs (a), (b), (c), and (d) to read
as follows:
§ 1054.240 How do I demonstrate that my
emission family complies with exhaust
emission standards?
(a) For purposes of certification, your
emission family is considered in
compliance with the emission standards
in § 1054.101(a) if all emission-data
engines representing that family have
test results showing official emission
results and deteriorated emission levels
at or below these standards. This also
applies for all test points for emissiondata engines within the family used to
establish deterioration factors. Note that
your FELs are considered to be the
applicable emission standards with
which you must comply if you
participate in the ABT program in
subpart H of this part.
(b) Your engine family is deemed not
to comply if any emission-data engine
representing that family has test results
showing an official emission result or a
deteriorated emission level for any
pollutant that is above an applicable
emission standard. This also applies for
all test points for emission-data engines
within the family used to establish
deterioration factors.
(c) Determine a deterioration factor to
compare emission levels from the
emission-data engine with the
applicable emission standards. Section
1054.245 specifies how to test engines
to develop deterioration factors that
represent the expected deterioration in
emissions over your engines’ full useful
life. Calculate a multiplicative
deterioration factor as described in
§ 1054.245(b). If the deterioration factor
PO 00000
Frm 00157
Fmt 4701
Sfmt 4702
28295
is less than one, use one. Specify the
deterioration factor to one more
significant figure than the emission
standard. In the case of dual-fuel and
flexible-fuel engines, apply
deterioration factors separately for each
fuel type. You may use assigned
deterioration factors that we establish
for up to 10,000 nonhandheld engines
from small-volume emission families in
each model year, except that smallvolume engine manufacturers may use
assigned deterioration factors for any or
all of their engine families.
(d) Determine the official emission
result for each pollutant to at least one
more decimal place than the applicable
standard. Apply the deterioration factor
to the official emission result, as
described in § 1054.245(b), then round
the adjusted figure to the same number
of decimal places as the emission
standard. Compare the rounded
emission levels to the emission standard
for each emission-data engine. In the
case of HC+NOX standards, add the
official emission results and apply the
deterioration factor to the sum of the
pollutants before rounding. However, if
your deterioration factors are based on
emission measurements that do not
cover the engine’s full useful life, apply
deterioration factors to each pollutant
and then add the results before
rounding.
*
*
*
*
*
■ 247. Amend § 1054.245 by:
■ a. Revising paragraphs (a), (b)(1),
(b)(3), (b)(5), and (c); and
■ b. Adding paragraph (d).
The revisions and addition read as
follows:
§ 1054.245 How do I determine
deterioration factors from exhaust
durability testing?
*
*
*
*
*
(a) You may ask us to approve
deterioration factors for an emission
family based on emission measurements
from similar engines if you have already
given us these data for certifying other
engines in the same or earlier model
years. Use good engineering judgment to
decide whether the two engines are
similar. We will approve your request if
you show us that the emission
measurements from other engines
reasonably represent in-use
deterioration for the engine family for
which you have not yet determined
deterioration factors.
(b) * * *
(1) Measure emissions from the
emission-data engine at a low-hour test
point, at the midpoint of the useful life,
and at the end of the useful life, except
as specifically allowed by this
paragraph (b). You may test at
E:\FR\FM\12MYP2.SGM
12MYP2
Federal Register / Vol. 85, No. 92 / Tuesday, May 12, 2020 / Proposed Rules
additional evenly spaced intermediate
points. Collect emission data using
measurements to at least one more
decimal place than the emission
standard.
*
*
*
*
*
(3) In the case of dual-fuel or flexiblefuel engines, you may accumulate
service hours on a single emission-data
engine using the type or mixture of fuel
expected to have the highest
combustion and exhaust temperatures;
you may ask us to approve a different
fuel mixture for flexible-fuel engines if
you demonstrate that a different
criterion is more appropriate. For dualfuel engines, you must measure
emissions on each fuel type at each test
point, either with separate engines
dedicated to a given fuel, or with
different configurations of a single
engine.
*
*
*
*
*
(5) Calculate your deterioration factor
using a linear least-squares fit of your
test data, but treat the low-hour test
point as occurring at hour zero. Your
deterioration factor is the ratio of the
calculated emission level at the point
representing the full useful life to the
calculated emission level at zero hours,
expressed to one more decimal place
than the applicable standard.
*
*
*
*
*
(c) If you qualify for using assigned
deterioration factors under § 1054.240,
determine the deterioration factors as
follows:
(1) For two-stroke engines without
aftertreatment, use a deterioration factor
of 1.1 for HC, NOX, and CO. For fourstroke engines without aftertreatment,
use deterioration factors of 1.4 for HC,
1.0 for NOX, and 1.1 for CO for Class 2
engines, and use 1.5 for HC and NOX,
and 1.1 for CO for all other engines.
(2) For Class 2 engines with
aftertreatment, use a deterioration factor
(d) Include the following information
in your application for certification:
(1) If you determine your
deterioration factors based on test data
from a different emission family,
explain why this is appropriate and
include all the emission measurements
on which you base the deterioration
factor.
(2) If you do testing to determine
deterioration factors, describe the form
and extent of service accumulation,
including the method you use to
accumulate hours.
(3) If you calculate deterioration
factors under paragraph (c) of this
section, identify the parameters and
variables you used for the calculation.
■ 248. Amend § 1054.250 by:
■ a. Removing and reserving paragraph
(a)(3); and
■ b. Revising paragraphs (b)(3)(iv) and
(c).
The revisions read as follows:

regarding a certificate of conformity?
(a) If we determine an application is
complete and shows that the emission
family meets all the requirements of this
part and the Clean Air Act, we will
issue a certificate of conformity for the
emission family for that model year. We
may make the approval subject to
additional conditions.
(b) We may deny an application for
certification if we determine that an
emission family fails to comply with
emission standards or other
requirements of this part or the Clean
Air Act. We will base our decision on
all available information. If we deny an
application, we will explain why in
writing.
(c) In addition, we may deny your
application or suspend or revoke a
certificate of conformity if you do any
of the following:
(1) Refuse to comply with any testing,
reporting, or bonding requirements.
(2) Submit false or incomplete
information. This includes doing

of 1.0 for NOX. For all other cases
involving engines with aftertreatment,
calculate separate deterioration factors
for HC, NOX, and CO using the
following equation:
Where:
NE = engine-out emission levels (precatalyst) from the low-hour test result for
a given pollutant, in g/kW-hr.
EDF = the deterioration factor specified in
paragraph (c)(1) of this section for the
type of engine for a given pollutant.
CC = the catalyst conversion from the lowhour test, in g/kW-hr. This is the
difference between the official emission
result and NE.
F = 1.0 for NOX and 0.8 for HC and CO.
(3) Combine separate deterioration
factors for HC and NOX from paragraph
(c)(2) of this section into a combined
deterioration factor for HC+NOX using
the following equation:

that causes submitted information to be
false or incomplete.
(3) Cause any test data to become

provide reasonable assistance.
(5) Produce engines or equipment for
importation into the United States at a
location where local law prohibits us
from carrying out authorized activities.
(6) Fail to supply requested
information or amend an application to
include all engines or equipment being
produced.
(7) Take any action that otherwise
circumvents the intent of the Clean Air
Act or this part, with respect to an
emission family.
(d) We may void a certificate of
conformity for an emission family if you
fail to keep records, send reports, or give
us information as required under this
part or the Clean Air Act. Note that
these are also violations of 40 CFR
1068.101(a)(2).
(e) We may void a certificate of

not you modify the engine or destroy it.
(2) Do not use test results from a
modified engine as final test results
under § 1054.315, unless you change
your production process for all engines
to match the adjustments you made to

(2) For nonhandheld engines, use the
six-mode duty cycle or the
corresponding ramped-modal cycle
described in paragraph (b) of Appendix
II of this part. Control engine speeds and
torques during idle mode as specified in
paragraph (c) of this section. Control
engine speed during the full-load
operating mode as specified in
paragraph (d) of this section. For all
other modes, control engine speed to
within 5 percent of the nominal speed
specified in paragraph (d) of this section
or let the installed governor (in the
production configuration) control
engine speed. For all modes except idle,
control torque as needed to meet the
cycle-validation criteria in paragraph
(a)(1) of this section. The governor may
be adjusted before emission sampling to
target the nominal speed identified in
paragraph (d) of this section, but the
installed governor must control engine
speed throughout the emissionsampling period whether the governor is
adjusted or not. Note that ramped-modal
testing involves continuous sampling,
so governor adjustments may not occur
during such a test. Note also that our
testing may involve running the engine
with the governor in the standard
configuration even if you adjust the
governor as described in this paragraph
(b)(2) for certification or production-line
testing.

described in § 1054.205. Your
certification is conditioned on your
compliance with this section. Your
certificate is automatically suspended if
you fail to comply with the
requirements of this section. This
suspension applies with respect to all
engines in your possession as well as all
engines being imported or otherwise
introduced into U.S. commerce. For
example, if you maintain a bond
sufficient to cover 500 engines, you may
introduce into U.S. commerce only 500
engines under your certificate; your
certificate would be automatically
suspended for any additional engines.
Introducing such additional engines
into U.S. commerce would violate 40
CFR 1068.101(a)(1). For importation,
U.S. Customs may deny entry of engines
lacking the necessary bond. This would
apply if there is no bond, or if the value

New nonroad engine means any of the
following things:
(1) A freshly manufactured nonroad
engine for which the ultimate purchaser
has never received the equitable or legal
title. This kind of engine might
commonly be thought of as ‘‘brand
new.’’ In the case of this paragraph (1),
the engine is new from the time it is
produced until the ultimate purchaser
receives the title or the product is
placed into service, whichever comes
first.
(2) An engine originally manufactured

engine that is later used or intended to
be used in a piece of nonroad
equipment. In this case, the engine is no
longer a motor vehicle or stationary
engine and becomes a ‘‘new nonroad
engine.’’ The engine is no longer new
when it is placed into nonroad service.
This paragraph (2) applies if a motor
vehicle engine or a stationary engine is
installed in nonroad equipment, or if a
motor vehicle or a piece of stationary
equipment is modified (or moved) to
become nonroad equipment.
(3) A nonroad engine that has been
previously placed into service in an
application we exclude under § 1054.5,
when that engine is installed in a piece
of equipment that is covered by this part
1054. The engine is no longer new when
it is placed into nonroad service covered
by this part 1054. For example, this
would apply to a marine-propulsion
engine that is no longer used in a
marine vessel but is instead installed in
a piece of nonroad equipment subject to
the provisions of this part.
(4) An engine not covered by
paragraphs (1) through (3) of this
definition that is intended to be
installed in new nonroad equipment.
This generally includes installation of
used engines in new equipment. The
engine is no longer new when the
ultimate purchaser receives a title for
the equipment or the product is placed
into service, whichever comes first.
(5) An imported nonroad engine,
subject to the following provisions:
(i) An imported nonroad engine
covered by a certificate of conformity
issued under this part that meets the
criteria of one or more of paragraphs (1)
through (4) of this definition, where the
original engine manufacturer holds the
certificate, is new as defined by those
applicable paragraphs.
(ii) An imported engine that will be
covered by a certificate of conformity
issued under this part, where someone
other than the original engine
manufacturer holds the certificate (such
as when the engine is modified after its
initial assembly), is a new nonroad
engine when it is imported. It is no
longer new when the ultimate purchaser
receives a title for the engine or it is
placed into service, whichever comes
first.
(iii) An imported nonroad engine that
is not covered by a certificate of
conformity issued under this part at the
time of importation is new. This
addresses uncertified engines and
equipment initially placed into service
that someone seeks to import into the
United States. Importation of this kind
of engine (or equipment containing such
an engine) is generally prohibited by 40
CFR part 1068. However, the
VerDate Sep<11>2014
22:43 May 11, 2020

importation of such an engine is not
prohibited if the engine has a date of
manufacture before January 1, 1997,
since it is not subject to standards.
New nonroad equipment means either
of the following things:
(1) A nonroad piece of equipment for
which the ultimate purchaser has never
received the equitable or legal title. The
product is no longer new when the
ultimate purchaser receives this title or
the product is placed into service,
whichever comes first.
(2) A nonroad piece of equipment
with an engine that becomes new while
installed in the equipment. For
example, a complete piece of equipment
that was imported without being
covered by a certificate of conformity
would be new nonroad equipment
because the engine would be considered
new at the time of importation.

Small-volume emission family means
one of the following:
(1) For requirements related to
exhaust emissions for nonhandheld
engines and to exhaust and evaporative
emissions for handheld engines, smallvolume emission family means any
emission family whose U.S.-directed
production volume in a given model
year is projected at the time of
certification to be no more than 5,000
engines or pieces of equipment.

volume for identical fuel tank is
projected at the time of certification to
be no more than 5,000 units. Tanks are
generally considered identical if they
are produced under a single part
number to conform to a single design or
blueprint. Tanks should be considered
identical if they differ only with respect
to production variability, postproduction changes (such as different
fittings or grommets), supplier, color, or
other extraneous design variables.

Total hydrocarbon has the meaning
given in 40 CFR 1065.1001. This
generally means the combined mass of
organic compounds measured by the
specified procedure for measuring total
hydrocarbon, expressed as an atomic
hydrocarbon with an atomic hydrogento-carbon ratio of 1.85:1.
Total hydrocarbon equivalent has the
meaning given in 40 CFR 1065.1001.
This generally means the sum of the
carbon mass contributions of nonoxygenated hydrocarbon, alcohols and
aldehydes, or other organic compounds
that are measured separately as
contained in a gas sample, expressed as
exhaust hydrocarbon from petroleumfueled engines. The atomic hydrogen-tocarbon ratio of the equivalent
hydrocarbon is 1.85:1.

apply to me?
*
(a) * * *
(8) Portable nonroad fuel tanks are
considered portable marine fuel tanks
for purposes of this part 1060. Portable
nonroad fuel tanks and fuel lines
associated with such fuel tanks must
therefore meet evaporative emission
standards specified in 40 CFR 1045.112,
whether or not they are used with
marine vessels.
*
*
*
*
*
(c) Fuel caps are subject to
evaporative emission standards at the
point of installation on a fuel tank.
When a fuel cap is certified for use with
Marine SI engines or Small SI engines
under the optional standards of
§ 1060.103, it becomes subject to all the
requirements of this part 1060 as if these
optional standards were mandatory.
(d) This part 1060 does not apply to
any diesel-fueled engine or any other
engine that does not use a volatile liquid
fuel. In addition, this part does not
apply to any engines or equipment in
the following categories even if they use
a volatile liquid fuel:
(1) Light-duty motor vehicles (see 40
CFR part 86).
(2) Heavy-duty motor vehicles and
heavy-duty motor vehicle engines (see
40 CFR part 86). This part 1060 also
does not apply to fuel systems for
nonroad engines where such fuel

(a) * * *
(1) Each person meeting the definition
of manufacturer for a product that is
subject to the standards and other
requirements of this part must comply
with such requirements. However, if
one person complies with a specific
requirement for a given product, then all
manufacturers are deemed to have
complied with that specific
requirement. For example, if a Small SI
equipment manufacturer uses fuel lines
manufactured and certified by another
company, the equipment manufacturer
is not required to obtain its own
certificate with respect to the fuel line
emission standards. Such an equipment
manufacturer remains subject to the
standards and other requirements of this
part. However, where a provision
requires a specific manufacturer to
comply with certain provisions, this
paragraph (a) does not change or modify
such a requirement. For example, this
paragraph (a) does not allow you to rely
on another company to certify instead of
you if we specifically require you to
certify.

(1) For emission families already
covered by a certificate of conformity,
you may start producing a new or
modified configuration anytime after
you send us your amended application
and before we make a decision under
paragraph (d) of this section. However,
if we determine that the affected
configurations do not meet applicable
requirements, we will notify you to
cease production of the configurations
and may require you to recall the
equipment at no expense to the owner.
Choosing to produce equipment under
this paragraph (e) is deemed to be
consent to recall all equipment that we
determine do not meet applicable
emission standards or other
requirements and to remedy the
nonconformity at no expense to the

we request it, you must stop producing
the new or modified equipment.
(2) If you amend your application to
make the amended application correct
and complete, these changes do not
apply retroactively. Also, if we
determine that your amended
application is not correct and complete,
or otherwise does not conform to the
regulation, we will notify you and
describe how to address the error.

*
*
*
*
(g) You may produce equipment or
components as described in your
amended application for certification
and consider those equipment or
components to be in a certified
configuration if we approve a new or
modified configuration during the
model year or production period under
paragraph (d) of this section. Similarly,
you may modify in-use products as
described in your amended application
for certification and consider those
products to be in a certified
configuration if we approve a new or

under paragraph (d) of this section.
Modifying a new or in-use product to be
in a certified configuration does not
violate the tampering prohibition of 40
CFR 1068.101(b)(1), as long as this does
not involve changing to a certified
configuration with a higher family
emission limit.
(h) Component manufacturers may
not change an emission family’s FEL
under any circumstances. Changing the

§ 1060.255 What decisions may EPA make
regarding a certificate of conformity?
(a) If we determine an application is
complete and shows that the emission
family meets all the requirements of this
part and the Clean Air Act, we will
issue a certificate of conformity for the
emission family for that production
period. We may make the approval
subject to additional conditions.
(b) We may deny an application for
certification if we determine that an
emission family fails to comply with
emission standards or other
requirements of this part or the Clean
Air Act. We will base our decision on
all available information. If we deny an
application, we will explain why in
writing.
(c) In addition, we may deny your
application or suspend or revoke a
certificate of conformity if you do any
of the following:
(1) Refuse to comply with any testing
or reporting requirements.
(2) Submit false or incomplete
information. This includes doing
anything after submitting an application
that causes submitted information to be
false or incomplete.
(3) Cause any test data to become
inaccurate.
(4) Deny us from completing
authorized activities (see 40 CFR
1068.20). This includes a failure to
provide reasonable assistance.
(5) Produce equipment or components
for importation into the United States at
a location where local law prohibits us
from carrying out authorized activities.
(6) Fail to supply requested
information or amend an application to
include all equipment or components
being produced.
(7) Take any action that otherwise
circumvents the intent of the Clean Air
Act or this part, with respect to an
emission family.
(d) We may void a certificate of
conformity for an emission family if you
fail to keep records, send reports, or give
us information as required under this
part or the Clean Air Act. Note that
these are also violations of 40 CFR
1068.101(a)(2).
(e) We may void a certificate of
conformity for an emission family if we
find that you intentionally submitted
false or incomplete information. This
includes doing anything after
submitting an application that causes
submitted information to be false or

(c) The specification for gasoline to be
used for testing is given in 40 CFR
1065.710(b) or (c). Use the grade of
gasoline specified for general testing.
For testing specified in this part that
requires blending gasoline and ethanol,
blend this grade of neat gasoline with
fuel-grade ethanol meeting the
specifications of ASTM D4806
(incorporated by reference in
§ 1060.810). You do not need to measure
the ethanol concentration of such
blended fuels and may instead calculate
the blended composition by assuming
that the ethanol is pure and mixes
perfectly with the base fuel. For
example, if you mix 10.0 liters of fuelgrade ethanol with 90.0 liters of
gasoline, you may assume the resulting
mixture is 10.0 percent ethanol. You
may use more pure or less pure ethanol
if you can demonstrate that it will not
affect your ability to demonstrate
compliance with the applicable
emission standards. Note that unless we
specify otherwise, any references to
gasoline-ethanol mixtures containing a
specified ethanol concentration means
mixtures meeting the provisions of this
paragraph (c). The following table

(a) Preconditioning durability testing.
Take the following steps before an
emission test, in any order, if your
emission control technology involves
PO 00000

surface treatment or other postprocessing treatments such as an epoxy
coating:
(1) Pressure cycling. Perform a
pressure test by sealing the fuel tank
and cycling it between +13.8 and ¥3.4
kPa (+2.0 and ¥0.5 psig) for 10,000
cycles at a rate of 60 seconds per cycle.
The purpose of this test is to represent
environmental wall stresses caused by
pressure changes and other factors (such
as vibration or thermal expansion). If
your fuel tank cannot be tested using the
pressure cycles specified by this
paragraph (a)(1), you may ask to use
special test procedures under
§ 1060.505.
(2) UV exposure. Perform a sunlightexposure test by exposing the fuel tank
to an ultraviolet light of at least 24 W/
m2 (0.40 W-hr/m2/min) on the fuel tank
E:\FR\FM\12MYP2.SGM

surface for at least 450 hours.
Alternatively, the fuel tank may be
exposed to direct natural sunlight for an
equivalent period of time as long as you
ensure that the fuel tank is exposed to
at least 450 daylight hours.
(3) Slosh testing. Perform a slosh test
by filling the fuel tank to 40–50 percent
of its capacity with the fuel specified in
paragraph (e) of this section and rocking
it at a rate of 15 cycles per minute until
you reach one million total cycles. Use
an angle deviation of +15° to ¥15° from
level. Take steps to ensure that the fuel
remains at 40–50 percent of its capacity
throughout the test run.
(4) Cap testing. Perform durability
cycles on fuel caps intended for use
with handheld equipment by putting
the fuel cap on and taking it off 300
times. Tighten the fuel cap each time in
a way that represents the typical in-use
experience.
(b) * * *
(1) Fill the fuel tank to its nominal
capacity with the fuel specified in
paragraph (e) of this section, seal it, and
allow it to soak at 28 ± 5 °C for at least
20 weeks. Alternatively, the fuel tank
may be soaked for at least 10 weeks at
43 5 °C. You may count the time of the
preconditioning steps in paragraph (a)
of this section as part of the
preconditioning fuel soak as long as the
ambient temperature remains within the
specified temperature range and the fuel
tank continues to be at least 40 percent
full throughout the test; you may add or
replace fuel as needed to conduct the
specified durability procedures. Void
the test if you determine that the fuel
tank has any kind of leak.
*
*
*
*
*
(4) Allow the fuel tank and its
contents to equilibrate to the
temperatures specified in paragraph
(d)(7) of this section. Seal the fuel tank
as described in paragraph (b)(5) of this
section once the fuel temperatures are
stabilized at the test temperature. You
must seal the fuel tank no more than
eight hours after refueling. Until the fuel
tank is sealed, take steps to minimize
the vapor losses from the fuel tank, such
as keeping the fuel cap loose on the fuel
inlet or routing vapors through a vent
hose.
*
*
*
*
*
(d) * * *
(3) Carefully place the test tank within
a temperature-controlled room or
enclosure. Do not spill or add any fuel.
*
*
*
*
*
(6) Leave the test tank in the room or
enclosure for the duration of the test
run, except that you may remove the

tank for up to 30 minutes at a time to
meet weighing requirements.
*
*
*
*
*
(8) * * *
(ii) If after ten days of testing your r2
value is below 0.95 and your measured
value is more than 50 percent of the
applicable standard, continue testing for
a total of 20 days or until r2 is at or
above 0.95. If r2 is not at or above 0.95
within 20 days of testing, discontinue
the test and precondition the test tank
further until it has stabilized emission
levels, then repeat the testing.
(9) Record the difference in mass
between the reference tank and the test
tank for each measurement. This value
is Mi, where i is a counter representing
the number of days elapsed. Subtract Mi
from Mo and divide the difference by
the internal surface area of the fuel tank.
Divide this g/m2 value by the number of
test days (using at least two decimal
places) to calculate the emission rate in
g/m2/day. Example: If a fuel tank with
an internal surface area of 0.720 m2
weighed 1.31 grams less than the
reference tank at the beginning of the
test and weighed 9.86 grams less than
the reference tank after soaking for 10.03
days, the emission rate would be—
((¥1.31 g)¥(¥9.86 g))/0.720 m2/10.03
days = 1.1839 g/m2/day

(e) Fuel specifications. Use a low-level
ethanol-gasoline blend as specified in

■ 298. Amend § 1060.601 by revising
paragraphs (a) and (b)(2) to read as
follows:
§ 1060.601 How do the prohibitions of 40
CFR 1068.101 apply with respect to the
requirements of this part?
(a) As described in § 1060.1, fuel
tanks and fuel lines that are used with
or intended to be used with new
nonroad engines or equipment are
subject to evaporative emission
standards under this part 1060. This
includes portable marine fuel tanks and
fuel lines and other fuel-system
components associated with portable
PO 00000
Frm 00169
Fmt 4701

marine fuel tanks. Note that § 1060.1
specifies an implementation schedule
based on the date of manufacture of
nonroad equipment, so new fuel tanks
and fuel lines are not subject to
standards under this part 1060 if they
will be installed for use in equipment
built before the specified dates for
implementing the appropriate
standards, subject to the limitations in
paragraph (b) of this section. Except as
specified in paragraph (f) of this section,
fuel-system components that are subject
to permeation or diurnal emission
standards under this part 1060 must be
covered by a valid certificate of
conformity before being introduced into
U.S. commerce to avoid violating the
prohibition of 40 CFR 1068.101(a). To
the extent we allow it under the exhaust
standard-setting part, fuel-system
components may be certified with a
family emission limit higher than the
specified emission standard.
(b) * * *
(2) Applicability of standards after
January 1, 2020. Starting January 1,
2020, it is presumed that replacement
components will be used with nonroad
engines regulated under this part 1060
if they can reasonably be used with such
engines. Manufacturers, distributors,
retailers, and importers are therefore
obligated to take reasonable steps to
ensure that any uncertified components
are not used to replace certified
components. This would require
labeling the components and may also
require restricting the sales and
requiring the ultimate purchaser to
agree to not use the components
inappropriately. This requirement does
not apply for components that are
clearly not intended for use with fuels.
*
*
*
*
*
■ 299. Add § 1060.610 to subpart G to
read as follows:
§ 1060.610 Temporary exemptions for
manufacturing and assembling equipment
and fuel-system components.
(a) If you are a certificate holder, you
may ship components or equipment
requiring further assembly between two
of your facilities, subject to the
provisions of this paragraph (a). Unless
we approve otherwise, you must
maintain ownership and control of the
products until they reach their
destination. We may allow for shipment
where you do not maintain actual
ownership and control of the engines
(such as hiring a shipping company to
transport the products) but only if you
demonstrate that the products will be
transported only according to your
specifications. Notify us of your intent
to use this exemption in your
application for certification, if
E:\FR\FM\12MYP2.SGM
12MYP2
28308
Federal Register / Vol. 85, No. 92 / Tuesday, May 12, 2020 / Proposed Rules
applicable. Your exemption is effective
when we grant your certificate. You may
alternatively request an exemption in a
separate submission; for example, this
would be necessary if you will not be
the certificate holder for the products in
question. We may require you to take
specific steps to ensure that such
products are in a certified configuration
before reaching the ultimate purchaser.
Note that since this is a temporary
exemption, it does not allow you to sell
or otherwise distribute equipment in an
uncertified configuration to ultimate
purchasers. Note also that the exempted
equipment remains new and subject to
emission standards until its title is
transferred to the ultimate purchaser or
it otherwise ceases to be new.
(b) If you certify equipment, you may
ask us at the time of certification for an
exemption to allow you to ship your
equipment without a complete fuel
system. We will generally approve this
only if you can demonstrate that the
exemption is necessary and that you
will take steps to ensure that equipment
assembly will be properly completed
before reaching the ultimate purchaser.
We may specify conditions that we
determine are needed to ensure that
shipping the equipment without such
components will not result in the
equipment operating with uncertified
components or otherwise in an
uncertified configuration. For example,
we may require that you ship the
equipment to manufacturers that are
contractually obligated to install certain
components. See 40 CFR 1068.261.

PART 1065—ENGINE–TESTING
PROCEDURES
305. The authority statement for part
1065 continues to read as follows:
■
Authority: 42 U.S.C. 7401–7671q.
306. Amend § 1065.1 by revising
paragraph (g) to read as follows:
■
§ 1065.1
Applicability.
*
*
*
*
*
(g) For additional information
regarding these test procedures, visit our
website at www.epa.gov, and in
particular https://www.epa.gov/vehicleand-fuel-emissions-testing/enginetesting-regulations.
*
*
*
*
*
■ 307. Amend § 1065.130 by revising
paragraph (e) to read as follows:
§ 1065.130
Engine exhaust.
*
*
*
*
*
(e) Leaks. Minimize leaks sufficiently
to ensure your ability to demonstrate
compliance with the applicable
standards. We recommend performing a
carbon balance error verification as
described in § 1065.543 to verify
exhaust system integrity.
*
*
*
*
*
■ 308. Amend § 1065.140 by revising
paragraphs (c)(6)(i) and (e)(2) to read as
follows:
§ 1065.140 Dilution for gaseous and PM
constituents.
*
*
*
*
*
(c) * * *
(6) * * *
(i) Preventing aqueous condensation.
To prevent condensation, you must
keep the temperature of internal
surfaces, excluding any sample probes,
above the dewpoint of the dilute
exhaust passing through the CVS
tunnel. Use good engineering judgment
to monitor temperatures in the CVS. For
the purposes of this paragraph (c)(6),
assume that aqueous condensation is
pure water condensate only, even
though the definition of ‘‘aqueous
condensation’’ in § 1065.1001 includes
condensation of any constituents that
contain water. No specific verification
check is required under this paragraph
(c)(6)(i), but we may ask you to show
PO 00000
Frm 00171
Fmt 4701
Sfmt 4702
28309
how you comply with this requirement.
You may use engineering analysis, CVS
tunnel design, alarm systems,
measurements of wall temperatures, and
calculation of water dewpoint to
demonstrate compliance with this
requirement. For optional CVS heat
exchangers, you may use the lowest
water temperature at the inlet(s) and
outlet(s) to determine the minimum
internal surface temperature.
*
*
*
*
*
(e) * * *
(2) For any PM dilution system (i.e.,
CVS or PFD), add dilution air to the raw
exhaust such that the minimum overall
ratio of diluted exhaust to raw exhaust
is within the range of (5:1 to 7:1) and is
at least 2:1 for any primary dilution
stage. Base this minimum value on the
maximum engine exhaust flow rate for
a given test interval. For discrete mode
testing, base the minimum value on the
maximum engine exhaust flow rate for
a given duty-cycle. Either measure the
maximum exhaust flow during a
practice run of the test interval or
estimate it based on good engineering
judgment (for example, you might rely
on manufacturer-published literature).
*
*
*
*
*
■ 309. Amend § 1065.145 by revising
paragraph (e)(3)(i) to read as follows:
§ 1065.145 Gaseous and PM probes,
transfer lines, and sampling system
components.
*
*
*
*
*
(e) * * *
(3) * * *
(i) If you use a NOX sample pump
upstream of either an NO2-to-NO
converter that meets § 1065.378 or a
chiller that meets § 1065.376, design the
sampling system to prevent aqueous
condensation.
*
*
*
*
*
■ 310. Amend § 1065.170 by revising
the introductory text and paragraph
(a)(1) to read as follows:
§ 1065.170 Batch sampling for gaseous
and PM constituents.
Batch sampling involves collecting
and storing emissions for later analysis.
Examples of batch sampling include
collecting and storing gaseous emissions
in a bag or collecting and storing PM on
a filter. You may use batch sampling to
store emissions that have been diluted
at least once in some way, such as with
CVS, PFD, or BMD. You may use batchsampling to store undiluted emissions.
You may stop emission sampling
anytime the engine is turned off,
consistent with good engineering
judgment. This is intended to allow for
higher concentrations of dilute exhaust
gases and more accurate measurements.

Take steps to account for exhaust
transport delay in the sampling system
and be sure to integrate over the actual
sampling duration when determining
ndexh. Use good engineering judgement
to add additional dilution air, as
needed, to fill bags up to minimum read
volumes.
(a) * * *
(1) Verify proportional sampling after
an emission test as described in
§ 1065.545. You may exclude segments
where the bag is not being filled from
the proportional sampling verification.
Use good engineering judgment to select
storage media that will not significantly

change measured emission levels (either
up or down). For example, do not use
sample bags for storing emissions if the
bags are permeable with respect to
emissions or if they off gas emissions to
the extent that it affects your ability to
demonstrate compliance with the
applicable gaseous emission standards.
As another example, do not use PM
filters that irreversibly absorb or adsorb
gases to the extent that it affects your
ability to demonstrate compliance with
the applicable PM emission standard.

demonstrating compliance with NMHC
standards, you may either measure THC
and determine NMHC mass as described
in § 1065.660(b)(1), or you may measure
THC and CH4 and determine NMHC as
described in § 1065.660(b)(2) or (3). For
some gaseous-fueled engines, you may

(b) Component requirements. We
recommend that you use an FTIR
analyzer that meets the specifications in
Table 1 of § 1065.205. Note that your
FTIR-based system must meet the
linearity verification in § 1065.307. Use

magnetopneumatic O2 detection analyzers.
(a) Application. You may use a
paramagnetic detection (PMD) or
magnetopneumatic detection (MPD)
analyzer to measure O2 concentration in
raw or diluted exhaust for batch or
continuous sampling. You may use good
engineering judgment to develop
calculations that use O2 measurements
with a chemical balance of fuel, DEF,
inlet intake air, and exhaust to calculate
exhaust flow rate.

(c) * * *
(13) Use the arithmetic means, y¯; and
reference values, yrefi, to calculate leastsquares linear regression parameters and
statistical values to compare to the
minimum performance criteria specified
in Table 1 of this section. Use the
calculations for a floating intercept
described in § 1065.602. Using good
engineering judgment, you may weight
the results of individual data pairs (i.e.,
(yrefi, y¯i)), in the linear regression
calculations.

(4) Fuel or DEF mass flow rate. Use a
gravimetric reference measurement
(such as a scale, balance, or mass
comparator) and a container. Use a
stopwatch or timer to measure the time
intervals over which reference masses of
fluid pass through the mass flow meter.
Use good engineering judgement to
correct the reference mass that flowed
through the mass flow meter for
buoyancy effects including any tubes,
temperature probes, or objects
submerged in the fluid in the container

and not attached to the container. If the
container has any tubes or wires
connected to the container, recalibrate
the gravimetric reference measurement
device with them connected and at
normal operating pressure using
calibration weights that meet the
requirements in § 1065.790. The
corrected reference mass that flowed
through the mass flow meter divided by
the time interval is the average reference
mass flow rate. For meters that report a
different quantity (such as actual
volume, standard volume, or mole),
convert the reported quantity to mass.
For meters that report cumulative mass
(or other quantity), calculate the average
measured mass flow rate as the
difference in the reported cumulative
mass from the beginning to the end of
the time interval divided by the time
interval. For gaseous fuel flow meters,
prevent condensation on the fuel
container and any tubes, fittings, or
regulators attached to the fuel container.

(6) Gas division. Use one of the two
reference signals:
(i) At the outlet of the gas-division
system, connect a gas analyzer that
meets the linearity verification
described in this section and has not
been linearized with the gas divider
being verified. For example, verify the
linearity of an analyzer using a series of
reference analytical gases directly from
compressed gas cylinders that meet the
specifications of § 1065.750. We
PO 00000
Frm 00176
Fmt 4701
Sfmt 4702
recommend using a FID analyzer or a
PMD or MPD O2 analyzer because of
their inherent linearity. Operate this
analyzer consistent with how you
would operate it during an emission
test. Connect a span gas containing only
a single constituent of interest with
balance of purified air or nitrogen to the
gas-divider inlet. Use the gas-division
system to divide the span gas with
purified air or nitrogen. Select gas
divisions that you typically use. Use a
selected gas division as the measured
value. Use the analyzer response
divided by the span gas concentration as
the reference gas-division value.
Because the instrument response is not
absolutely constant, sample and record
values of xrefi for 30 seconds and use the
arithmetic mean of the values, x¯ref, as
the reference value. Refer to § 1065.602
for an example of calculating arithmetic
mean.
(ii) Using good engineering judgment
and the gas divider manufacturer’s
recommendations, use one or more
reference flow meters to measure the
flow rates of the gas divider and verify
the gas-division value.
(7) Continuous constituent
concentration. For reference values, use
a series of gas cylinders of known gas
concentration containing only a single
constituent of interest with balance of
purified air or nitrogen or use a gasdivision system that is known to be
linear with a span gas. Gas cylinders,
gas-division systems, and span gases
E:\FR\FM\12MYP2.SGM

that you use for reference values must
meet the specifications of § 1065.750.
*
*
*
*
*
(9) Mass. For linearity verification for
gravimetric PM balances and fuel mass
scales, and DEF mass scales, use
external calibration weights that meet
the requirements in § 1065.790. Perform
the linearity verification for fuel and
DEF mass scales with the in-use
container and all objects that interface
with the container installed. Include all
tubes, temperature probes, and objects
submerged in the fluid in the container
and all tubes, fittings, regulators, and
wires, etc. attached to the container. If
the container is vented to ambient, fill
the container and tubes with fluid above
the minimum level used to trigger a fill
operation; drain the fluid down to the
minimum level; tare the scale; and
perform the linearity verification. If the
container is rigid and not vented, drain
the fluid down to the minimum level;
fill all tubes attached to the container to
normal operating pressure; tare the
scale; and perform the linearity
verification. We recommend that you
use good engineering judgement to
develop and apply appropriate
buoyancy corrections for the
configuration of your mass scale during
normal testing. During the linearity
verification, configure this buoyancy
correction to account for the fact that
the scale is weighing a calibration
weight instead of fluid. You may
develop corrections in your mass scales
for the effect of natural convection
currents generated by temperature
differences between the fluid container
and ambient air.

(3) The expression ‘‘max’’ generally
refers to the absolute value of the
reference value used during linearity
verification that is furthest from zero.
This is the value used to scale the first
and third tolerances in Table 1 of this
section using a0 and SEE. For example,
if the reference values chosen to
validate a pressure transducer vary from
¥10 to ¥1 kPa, then pmax is +10 kPa.
If the reference values used to validate
a temperature device vary from 290 to
390 K, then Tmax is 390 K. For gas
dividers where ‘‘max’’ is expressed as,
xmax/xspan; xmax is the maximum gas
concentration used during the
verification, xspan is the undivided,
undiluted, span gas concentration, and
the resulting ratio is the maximum
divider point reference value used
during the verification (typically 1). The
following are special cases where ‘‘max’’
refers to a different value:

(i) For linearity verification of a PM
balance, mmax is the typical mass of a
PM filter.
(ii) For linearity verification of a
torque measurement system used to
determine the engine’s primary output
shaft, Tmax is the manufacturer’s
specified engine torque peak value of
the lowest torque engine expected
during testing.
(iii) For linearity verification of a fuel
mass scale, mmax is determined based on
the range of engines and test interval
durations expected during testing. It is
the minimum, over all engines expected
during testing, of the fuel consumption
expected over the minimum test interval
duration at the engine’s maximum fuel
rate. If the minimum test interval
duration used during testing does not
change with engine power or if the
minimum test interval duration used
during testing increases with engine
power, mmax is given by Eq. 1065.307–
1.
Where:
˙ max,fuel = the manufacturer’s specified
m
maximum fuel rate on the lowest power
engine expected during testing.
tmin = the minimum test interval duration
expected during testing. If the minimum
test interval duration used during testing
decreases with engine power, evaluate
Eq. 1065.307–1 for the range of engines
expected during testing and use the
minimum mmax,fuel scale.
(iv) For linearity verification of a DEF
mass scale, mmax is 10% of mmax for a
fuel mass scale, as determined in
paragraph (e)(3)(iii) of this section. For
purposes of determining mmax for a DEF
mass scale, you may evaluate mmax for
a fuel mass scale based only on the DEFusing engines expected during testing.
(v) For linearity verification of a fuel
˙ max is the
flow rate meter, m
manufacturer’s specified maximum fuel
rate of the lowest power engine
expected during testing.
(vi) For linearity verification of a DEF
˙ max is 10% of the
flow rate meter, m
manufacturer’s specified maximum fuel
rate of the lowest power, DEF-using,
engine expected during testing.
(vii) For linearity verification of an
intake-air flow rate meter, n˙max is the
manufacturer’s specified maximum
intake-air flow rate (converted to molar
flow rate) of the lowest power engine
expected during testing.

raw exhaust flow rate meter, n˙max is the
manufacturer’s specified maximum
exhaust flow rate (converted to molar

flow rate) of the lowest power engine
expected during testing.
(ix) For linearity verification of an
electrical power measurement system
used to determine the engine’s primary
output shaft torque, Pmax is the
manufacturer’s specified maximum
power of the lowest power engine
expected during testing.
(x) For linearity verification of an
electrical current measurement system
used to determine the engine’s primary
output shaft torque, Imax is the
maximum current expected on the
lowest power engine expected during
testing.
(xi) For linearity verification of an
electrical voltage measurement system
used to determine the engine’s primary
output shaft torque, Vmax is the
minimum peak voltage expected on the
range of engines expected during
testing.

(5) Table 2 of this section lists the
flow measurement systems that have
optional verifications to the linearity
verification. If you substitute the
propane check verification described in
§ 1065.341, it must be performed at the
frequency specified in Table 1 of
§ 1065.303. If you substitute the carbon
balance verification described in
§ 1065.543, it must be performed on all
test sequences that use the
corresponding system and it must meet
the restrictions listed in Table 2 of this
section. You may evaluate the carbon
balance verification multiple ways with
different inputs to validate multiple
flow measurement systems.

(i) The following temperature
measurements always require linearity
verification:
(A) Air intake.
(B) Aftertreatment bed(s), for engines
tested with aftertreatment devices
subject to cold-start testing.
(C) Dilution air for gaseous and PM
sampling, including CVS, doubledilution, and partial-flow systems.
(D) PM sample.
(E) Chiller sample, for gaseous
sampling systems that use thermal
chillers to dry samples and use chiller
temperature to calculate the dewpoint at
the outlet of the chiller. For your testing,
if you choose to use a high alarm
temperature setpoint for the chiller
temperature as a constant value in
determining the amount of water
removed from the emission sample, you
may use good engineering judgment to
verify the accuracy of the high alarm
temperature setpoint instead of linearity
verification on the chiller temperature.

(2) Equipment setup. We recommend
using minimal lengths of gas transfer
lines between all connections and fastacting three-way valves (2 inlets, 1
outlet) to control the flow of zero and
blended span gases to the sample
system’s probe inlet or a tee near the
outlet of the probe. If you inject the gas
at a tee near the outlet of the probe, you
may correct the transformation time, t50,
for an estimate of the transport time
from the probe inlet to the tee. Normally
the gas flow rate is higher than the
sample flow rate and the excess is
overflowed out the inlet of the probe. If
the gas flow rate is lower than the
sample flow rate, the gas concentrations
must be adjusted to account for the
dilution from ambient air drawn into
the probe. We recommend you use the
final, stabilized analyzer reading as the
final gas concentration. Select span
gases for the species being continuously
combined, other than H2O. Select
concentrations of compensating species
that will yield concentrations of these
species at the analyzer inlet that covers
the range of concentrations expected
during testing. You may use binary or
multi-gas span gases. You may use a gas
blending or mixing device to blend span
gases. A gas blending or mixing device
is recommended when blending span
gases diluted in N2 with span gases
diluted in air. You may use a multi-gas
span gas, such as NO-CO-CO2-C3H8-CH4,
to verify multiple analyzers at the same
time. In designing your experimental
setup, avoid pressure pulsations due to
stopping the flow through the gas
blending device. The change in gas
concentration must be at least 20% of
the analyzer’s range. If H2O correction is
applicable, then span gases must be
humidified before entering the analyzer;
however, you may not humidify NO2
span gas by passing it through a sealed
humidification vessel that contains
water. You must humidify NO2 span gas
with another moist gas stream. We
recommend humidifying your NO-COCO2-C3H8-CH4, balance N2 blended gas
by flowing the gas mixture through a
sealed vessel that humidifies the gas by
bubbling it through distilled water and
then mixing the gas with dry NO2 gas,
balance purified air or by using a device
that injects distilled water as vapor into
a controlled span gas flow. If your
system does not use a sample dryer to
VerDate Sep<11>2014
22:43 May 11, 2020
Jkt 250001
remove water from the sample gas, you
must humidify your span gas to the
highest sample H2O content that you
estimate during emission sampling. If
your system uses a sample dryer during
testing, it must pass the sample dryer
verification check in § 1065.342, and
you must humidify your span gas to an
H2O content greater than or equal to the
level determined in § 1065.145(e)(2). If
you are humidifying span gases without
NO2, use good engineering judgment to
ensure that the wall temperatures in the
transfer lines, fittings, and valves from
the humidifying system to the probe are
above the dewpoint required for the
target H2O content. If you are
humidifying span gases with NO2, use
good engineering judgment to ensure
that there is no condensation in the
transfer lines, fittings, or valves from the
point where humidified gas is mixed
with NO2 span gas to the probe. We
recommend that you design your setup
so that the wall temperatures in the
transfer lines, fittings, and valves from
the humidifying system to the probe are
at least 5 °C above the local sample gas
dewpoint. Operate the measurement
and sample handling system as you do
for emission testing. Make no
modifications to the sample handling
system to reduce the risk of
condensation. Flow humidified gas
through the sampling system before this
check to allow stabilization of the
measurement system’s sampling
handling system to occur, as it would
for an emission test.

§ 1065.341 CVS and PFD flow verification
(propane check).
This section describes two methods,
using propane as a tracer gas, to verify
CVS and PFD flow streams. The first
method is written for the CVS diluted
exhaust flow measurement system. It
may be applied to other, single-flow,
measurement systems as described in
Table 2 of § 1065.307. You may
substitute a C3H8 analytical gas mixture
(i.e., a prediluted tracer gas) for pure
C3H8 to apply this method to lower flow
rates. The analytical gas mixture must
meet the specifications in
§ 1065.750(a)(3). The method described
in paragraph (g) of this section may be
used to verify the flow measurements in
a PFD that are used to determine the
dilution ratio in the PFD (usually
dilution air and diluted exhaust
streams), as it is difficult to scale this
method down to the flow rates in a
typical PFD using pure propane. You
may use good engineering judgment and
safe practices to use other tracer gases,
such as CO2 or CO.
(a) A failed propane check might
indicate one or more problems that may
require corrective action, as follows:
*
*
*
*
*
(g) You may verify the flow
measurements in a PFD (usually
dilution air and diluted exhaust
streams) used to determine the dilution
ratio in the PFD using the following
method:
(1) Configure the HC sampling system
to extract a sample from the diluted
exhaust stream of the PFD (such as near
the location of a PM filter). If the
absolute pressure at this location is too
low to extract an HC sample, you may
sample HC from the PFD system’s pump
exhaust. Use caution when sampling
from pump exhaust because an
otherwise acceptable pump leak
downstream of a PFD diluted exhaust
flow meter will cause a false failure of
the propane check.
(2) Perform the propane check
described in paragraphs (c), (d), and (e)
of this section, but sample HC from the
diluted exhaust stream of the PFD.
Inject the propane in the same exhaust
stream that the PFD is sampling from
(either CVS or raw exhaust stack).
(3) Calculate C3H8 mass, taking into
account the dilution from the PFD.
(4) Subtract the reference C3H8 mass
from the calculated mass. If this
difference is within ±2% of the
reference mass, the the flow
measurements in a PFD (usually
dilution air and diluted exhaust
streams) used to determine the dilution
ratio in the PFD all pass this
verification. If not, take corrective action
E:\FR\FM\12MYP2.SGM

Federal Register / Vol. 85, No. 92 / Tuesday, May 12, 2020 / Proposed Rules
as described in paragraph (a) of this
section. For PFDs sampling for PM only,
the allowed difference is ±5%.
(h) Table 2 of § 1065.307 lists the flow
measurement systems that have optional
verifications to the linearity verification.
The allowances for substituting the
carbon balance verification for the
linearity verification may also be used
to substitute for any required propane
checks.

(a) * * *
(4) For any gaseous-fueled engine,
including dual-fuel and flexible-fuel
engines, you may determine the
methane (CH4) and ethane (C2H6)
response factors as a function of the
molar water concentration in the raw or
diluted exhaust. Generate and verify the
humidity level (or fraction) as described
in § 1065.365(d)(12).
*
*
*
*
*
(d) * * *
(12) To determine the response factor
as a function of exhaust molar water
concentration, humidify the CH4 span
gas and repeat the steps in paragraphs
(d)(7) through (9) of this section until
measurements are complete for each
setpoint in the selected range. For each
measurement, divide the mean
measured concentration by the recorded
span concentration of the CH4
calibration gas, adjusted for water
content. The result is the FID analyzer’s
response factor for CH4, RFCH4[THC–FID].
Use these CH4 response factors to
determine the response factor based on
the exhaust molar water concentration,
downstream of the last sample dryer if
any sample dryers are present, during
the emission test and use this response
factor to account for the CH4 response
for NMHC determination described in
§ 1065.660(b)(2)(iii).

activity of the cutter has not
deteriorated. Note that because
nonmethane cutters can deteriorate

(e) and (f) of this section. If your FID
arrangement is such that a FID is always
calibrated to measure CH4 with the
NMC, then span that FID with the NMC
using a CH4 span gas, set the product of
that FID’s CH4 response factor and CH4
penetration fraction, RFPFCH4[NMC–FID],
equal to 1.0 for all emission
calculations, and determine its
combined C2H6 response factor and
penetration fraction, RFPFC2H6[NMC–FID]
as follows. For any gaseous-fueled
engine, including dual-fuel and flexiblefuel engines, you must determine the
CH4 penetration fraction, PFCH4[NMC–FID]
and C2H6 response factor and C2H6
penetration fraction, RFPFC2H6[NMC–FID]
as a function of the molar water
concentration in the raw or diluted
exhaust. Generate and verify the
humidity generation as described in
§ 1065.365(d)(12). When using this
option, note that the FID’s CH4
penetration fraction, PFCH4[NMC–FID], is
set equal to 1.0 only for 0% molar water
concentration. You are not required to
meet the recommended lower limit for
PFCH4 of greater than 0.85 for any of the
penetration fractions generated as a
function of molar water concentration.

*
*
*

(9) Divide the mean C2H6
concentration by the reference
concentration of C2H6, converted to a C1
basis. The result is the C2H6 combined
response factor and penetration fraction,
RFPFC2H6[NMC–FID]. Use this combined
C2H6 response factor and C2H6
penetration fraction and the product of
the CH4 response factor and CH4
penetration fraction, RFPFCH4[NMC–FID],
set to 1.0 in emission calculations
according to § 1065.660(b)(2)(i),
§ 1065.660(d)(1)(i), or § 1065.665, as
applicable.

(10) To determine the combined C2H6
response factor and C2H6 penetration
fraction as a function of exhaust molar
water concentration, humidify the C2H6
analytical gas mixture as described in
paragraph (d)(12) of this section. Repeat
the steps in paragraphs (d)(6) through
(8) of this section until measurements
are complete for each setpoint in the
selected range. For each measurement,
divide the mean C2H6 concentration by
the reference concentration of C2H6,
converted to a C1-basis and adjusted for
water content. The result is the
combined C2H6 response factor and
C2H6 penetration fraction,
RFPFC2H6[NMC–FID]. Use these combined
C2H6 response factors and C2H6
penetration fractions to determine the
combined response factor and
penetration fraction based on the
exhaust molar water concentration,
downstream of the last sample dryer if
any sample dryers are present, during
the emission test and use this combined
response factor and penetration fraction
to account for C2H6 response factor and
penetration fraction for NMHC and CH4
determination as described in
§ 1065.660(b)(2)(iii) and (d)(1)(iii).
(11) To determine the CH4 penetration
fraction as a function of exhaust molar
water concentration, repeat the steps in
paragraphs (d)(6) through (10) of this
section, but with the CH4 analytical gas
mixture instead of C2H6. The result will
be the CH4 penetration fraction,
PFCH4[NMC–FID] based on the exhaust
molar water concentration during the
emission test. Use this penetration
fraction for NMHC and CH4
determination as described in
§ 1065.660(b)(2)(iii) and (d)(1)(iii).
(12) For wet methane analyzers
generate at least five different water
concentrations that cover the range from
minimum expected water concentration
to greater than the maximum expected
water during testing. Use good
engineering judgement to determine the
target concentrations. Dry gas can be
one of these points. For dry methane
analyzers, determine the methane
penetration fraction by humidifying the
sample to a level higher than the sample
dryer outlet humidity and measure a
single wet penetration fraction of the
dehumidified sample. Heat all transfer
lines from the water generation system
to a temperature 5 °C higher than the
highest dewpoint generated. Use at least
30 second averages of measured water
concentration in paragraphs (d)(12)(i)
and (ii)(B) of this section to determine
the water content of the sample stream
at the same time you determine the
response factor and penetration fraction.

(i) Monitor humidified sample stream
with a dewpoint analyzer, relative
humidity sensor, FTIR, NDIR, or other
water analyzer during the test.
(ii) If the humidity generator utilizes
controlled flow rates of gas and/or
liquids to generate the humidity levels,
validate the instrument within 370 days
before testing and after major
maintenance by using one of the
following options:
(A) Determine the linearity of each
flow metering device. Using good
engineering judgment and the gas
divider manufacturer’s
recommendations, use one or more
reference flow meters to measure the
flow rates of the gas divider and verify
the gas-division value. This method
should utilize at least 10 flow rates for
each flow metering device.
(B) Monitor the humidified stream
with a dewpoint analyzer, relative
humidity sensor, FTIR, NDIR, or other
water analyzer. Generate at least five
different water concentrations that cover
the range from minimum expected
water concentration to greater than the
maximum expected water during
testing. Compare the measured
humidity versus the calculated
generated humidity. Verify overall
linearity performance for the generated
humidity by following § 1065.307 or
confirm all measured values are within
± 2% of the generated mole fraction. If
dry gas is used it must be measured
within 0.002 mole fraction.
(C) If the humidity generator did not
meet the requirements of paragraphs

follow the performance requirements in
§ 1065.307(b).

combined C2H6 response factor and

unrepresentative of production engines,
you may no longer use it as an emissiondata engine. Also, if your test engine has
a major mechanical failure that requires
you to take it apart, you may no longer
use it as an emission-data engine.

§ 1065.510
Engine mapping.
(a) Applicability, scope, and
frequency. An engine map is a data set
that consists of a series of paired data
points that represent the maximum
brake torque versus engine speed,
measured at the engine’s primary output
shaft. Map your engine if the standardsetting part requires engine mapping to
generate a duty cycle for your engine
configuration. Map your engine while it
is connected to a dynamometer or other
device that can absorb work output from
the engine’s primary output shaft
according to § 1065.110. Configure any
auxiliary work inputs and outputs such
as hybrid, turbo-compounding, or
thermoelectric systems to represent
their in-use configurations, and use the
same configuration for emission testing.
See Figure 1 of § 1065.210. This may
involve configuring initial states of
charge and rates and times of auxiliarywork inputs and outputs. We
recommend that you contact the
Designated Compliance Officer before
testing to determine how you should
configure any auxiliary-work inputs and
outputs. Use the most recent engine
map to transform a normalized duty
cycle from the standard-setting part to a
reference duty cycle specific to your
engine. Normalized duty cycles are
specified in the standard-setting part.
You may update an engine map at any
time by repeating the engine-mapping
procedure. You must map or re-map an
engine before a test if any of the
following apply:
*
*
*
*
*
(b) * * *
(5) Perform one of the following:
(i) For any engine subject only to
steady-state duty cycles, you may
perform an engine map by using
discrete speeds. Select at least 20 evenly
spaced setpoints from 95% of warm idle
speed to the highest speed above
maximum power at which 50% of
maximum power occurs. We refer to
this 50% speed as the check point speed
as described in paragraph (b)(5)(iii) of
this section. At each setpoint, stabilize
speed and allow torque to stabilize. We
recommend that you stabilize an engine
VerDate Sep<11>2014
22:43 May 11, 2020
Jkt 250001
for at least 15 seconds at each setpoint
and record the mean feedback speed
and torque of the last (4 to 6) seconds.
Record the mean speed and torque at
each setpoint. Use linear interpolation
to determine intermediate speeds and
torques. Use this series of speeds and
torques to generate the power map as
described in paragraph (e) of this
section.
*
*
*
*
*
(f) * * *
(4) Required declared torques. If a
nonzero idle or minimum torque is
representative of in-use operation, you
must declare the appropriate torque as
follows:
(i) For variable-speed engines, declare
a warm idle torque that is representative
of in-use operation. For example, if your
engine is typically connected to an
automatic transmission or a hydrostatic
transmission, declare the torque that
occurs at the idle speed at which your
engine operates when the transmission
is engaged. Use this value for cycle
generation. You may use multiple warm
idle torques and associated idle speeds
in cycle generation for representative
testing. For example, for cycles that start
the engine and begin with idle, you may
start a cycle in idle with the
transmission in neutral with zero torque
and later switch to a different idle with
the transmission in drive with the CurbIdle Transmission Torque (CITT). For
variable-speed engines intended
primarily for propulsion of a vehicle
with an automatic transmission where
that engine is subject to a transient duty
cycle with idle operation, you must
declare a CITT. You must specify a CITT
based on typical applications at the
mean of the range of idle speeds you
specify at stabilized temperature
conditions. You may also specify CITT
as a function of idle speed in cases
where you have an adjustable warm idle
or enhanced idle.

paragraphs (b)(1) and (2) to read as
follows:

Duty cycle generation.

(b) * * *
(1) Engine speed for variable-speed
engines. For variable-speed engines,
normalized speed may be expressed as
a percentage between warm idle speed,
fnidle, and maximum test speed, fntest, or
speed may be expressed by referring to
a defined speed by name, such as
‘‘warm idle,’’ ‘‘intermediate speed,’’ or
‘‘A,’’ ‘‘B,’’ or ‘‘C’’ speed. Section
1065.610 describes how to transform
these normalized values into a sequence
PO 00000
Frm 00182
Fmt 4701
Sfmt 4702
of reference speeds, fnref. Running duty
cycles with negative or small
normalized speed values near warm idle
speed may cause low-speed idle
governors to activate and the engine
torque to exceed the reference torque
even though the operator demand is at
a minimum. In such cases, we
recommend controlling the
dynamometer so it gives priority to
follow the reference torque instead of
the reference speed and let the engine
govern the speed. Note that the cyclevalidation criteria in § 1065.514 allow
an engine to govern itself. This
allowance permits you to test engines
with enhanced-idle devices and to
simulate the effects of transmissions
such as automatic transmissions. For
example, an enhanced-idle device might
be an idle speed value that is normally
commanded only under cold-start
conditions to quickly warm up the
engine and aftertreatment devices. In
this case, negative and very low
normalized speeds will generate
reference speeds below this higher
enhanced idle speed. When using
enhanced-idle devices you may do one
of the following:
(i) Control the dynamometer so it
gives priority to follow the reference
torque, controlling the operator demand
so it gives priority to follow reference
speed and let the engine govern the
speed when the operator demand is at
minimum.
(ii) While running an engine that
broadcasts enhanced-idle speed, use
that broadcast speed as the reference
speed whenever the denormalized
speed is below that broadcast value.
Note the special torque denormalization
in paragraph (b)(2) of this section. When
performing duty-cycle validation, use
these new reference points.
(2) Engine torque for variable-speed
engines. For variable-speed engines,
normalized torque is expressed as a
percentage of the mapped torque at the
corresponding reference speed. Section
1065.610 describes how to transform
normalized torques into a sequence of
reference torques, Tref. Section 1065.610
also describes special requirements for
modifying transient duty cycles for
variable-speed engines intended
primarily for propulsion of a vehicle
with an automatic transmission. Section
1065.610 also describes under what
conditions you may command Tref
greater than the reference torque you
calculated from a normalized duty
cycle. This provision permits you to
command Tref values that are limited by
a declared minimum torque. For any
negative torque commands, command
minimum operator demand and use the
dynamometer to control engine speed to
E:\FR\FM\12MYP2.SGM
12MYP2
Federal Register / Vol. 85, No. 92 / Tuesday, May 12, 2020 / Proposed Rules
the reference speed, but if reference
speed is so low that the idle governor
activates, we recommend using the
dynamometer to control torque to zero,
CITT, or a declared minimum torque as
appropriate. Note that you may omit
power and torque points during
motoring from the cycle-validation
criteria in § 1065.514. Also, use the
maximum mapped torque at the
minimum mapped speed as the
maximum torque for any reference
speed at or below the minimum mapped
speed. If you use the provision in
paragraph (b)(1)(ii) of this section do not
alter the denormalized reference torque.

error quantities; carbon mass absolute
error for a test interval (eaC), carbon

relative error for a test interval (erC). For

instead calculate and report the
composite carbon mass relative error for

■ 337. Add § 1065.543 to read as
follows:
§ 1065.543 Carbon balance error
verification.
(a) A carbon balance error verification
compares independent assessments of
the flow of carbon through the system
(engine plus aftertreatment). The carbon
flow out of the system, as determined by
the exhaust emissions calculations, is
compared to the carbon flow of all the
streams flowing into the system (fuels,
fluids (e.g., DEF), and intake-air). Note
that this verification is not valid when
exhaust molar flow rate is calculated
using fuel rate and chemical balance as
described in § 1065.655(f)(3) because the
flows of carbon into and out of the
system are not independent. The
following is a partial list of possible
causes for failing a carbon balance error
verification and recommended
corrective actions:
(1) Problems with the gas analyzer
system:
(i) Incorrect analyzer calibration.
Perform a calibration of the NDIR and/
or THC analyzers.
(ii) Incorrect time alignment between
flow and concentration data. Determine
transformation time, t50, for continuous
gas analyzers and time-align flow and
concentration data as described in
§ 1065.650(c)(2)(i).
(iii) Problems with the sample system.
Inspect the sample system components
such as sample lines, filters, chillers,
and pumps for leaks, operating
temperature, and contamination.
(2) Problems with fuel flow
measurement:
(i) Zero shift of fuel flow rate meter.
Perform an in-situ zero adjustment.
(ii) Change in fuel flow meter
calibration. Perform a calibration of the
fuel flow meter as described in
§ 1065.320.

(iii) Incorrect time alignment of fuel
flow data. Time align fuel flow data to
ensure that fuel flow data from
transitions between test intervals is not
included when integrating the fuel mass
over a test interval.
(iv) Short sampling periods. For test
intervals that are allowed to vary in
duration, such as discrete-mode steadystate duty cycles, extend the test
interval duration to improve accuracy
when measuring low fuel flow rates.
(v) Fluctuations in the fuel
conditioning system. Improve the
stability of the fuel temperature and
pressure conditioning system to
improve accuracy when measuring low
fuel flows.
(3) Dilute testing using a CVS system:
(i) Leaks. Inspect exhaust system and
CVS tunnel, connections, and fasteners
and repair or replace components. A
leak in the exhaust transfer tube to the
CVS will drive your carbon balance
error negative.
(ii) Poor mixing. Perform the
verification described in
§ 1065.341(a)(3) to look for and correct
poor mixing.
(iii) Change in CVS calibration.
Perform a calibration of the CVS flow
meter as described in § 1065.340.
(iv) Flow meter entrance effects.
Inspect the CVS tunnel to determine
whether the entrance effects from the
piping configuration upstream of the
flow meter adversely affect the flow
measurement.
(v) Other problems with the CVS or
sampling verification hardware or
software. Inspect the CVS system, CVS
verification hardware, and software for
discrepancies.
(4) Raw testing using intake air flow
measurement or direct exhaust flow
measurement:
(i) Leaks. Inspect the intake air system
and exhaust system, connections,
fasteners, and repair or replace
components.
(ii) Zero shift of intake air flow rate
meter. Perform an in-situ zero
adjustment.

calibration. Perform a calibration of the
intake air flow meter as described in

three carbon balance error quantities for
test intervals:
(i) eaC must be within (0.000 ± LeaC)
g, where the carbon mass absolute error
limit, LeaC, is determined using Eq.
1065.543–1, in units of grams and
expressed to at least four decimal

of the intake air flow meter or the
exhaust flow meter adversely affect the
flow measurement.
(v) Other problems with the intake air
flow and exhaust flow measurement
hardware or software. Inspect the intake
air flow and exhaust flow measurement
hardware or software for discrepancies.
(b) Perform the carbon balance error
verification as follows:
(1) Carbon balance error verification
takes place during the post emission
sampling portion of the emission test
sequence as described in § 1065.530(g).
Your test must include measurements of
the following to verify carbon balance
error: Fuel flow, flow of all other
carbon-carrying fluids into the system,
flows required to determine intake air
flow, and the amount of carbon
containing gaseous emissions.
(2) The calculations for determining
carbon balance error are described in
§ 1065.643. There are four different
carbon balance error quantities: Carbon
mass absolute error for a test interval
(eaC), carbon mass rate absolute error for
a test interval (eaCrate), carbon mass
relative error for a test interval (erC), and
composite carbon mass relative error for
multiple-test-interval duty cycles
(erCcomp). If you choose to verify carbon
balance error, verify as follows:
(i) For all test intervals, determine eaC,
eaCrate, and erC.
(ii) For all duty cycles, verify using
one of the following two methods:
(A) For all test intervals, verify that at
least one of the three carbon balance
error quantities for test intervals (eaC,
eaCrate, or erC) meets its applicable limit
specified in paragraph (b)(3) of this
section.
(B) For multiple-test-interval duty
cycles, you may instead verify that
erCcomp is within (0.000 ± 0.020).

a certain flow-weighted mean
concentration of an emission at its
standard based on previous testing with
similar engines or testing with similar
equipment and instruments. If you need
to estimate your expected flow-weighted
mean concentration of an emission at its
standard, we recommend using the
following examples as a guide for how
to estimate the flow-weighted mean
concentration expected at the standard.
Note that these examples are not exact
and that they contain assumptions that
are not always valid. Use good
engineering judgment to determine if
you can use similar assumptions.
(1) To estimate the flow-weighted
mean raw exhaust NOX concentration
from a turbocharged heavy-duty
compression-ignition engine at a NOX
standard of 2.5 g/(kW·hr), you may do
the following:
(i) Based on your engine design,
approximate a map of maximum torque
versus speed and use it with the
applicable normalized duty cycle in the
standard-setting part to generate a
reference duty cycle as described in
§ 1065.610. Calculate the total reference
work, Wref, as described in § 1065.650.
Divide the reference work by the duty
cycle’s time interval, Dtdutycycle, to
determine mean reference power, P¯ref.
(ii) Based on your engine design,
estimate maximum power, Pmax, the
design speed at maximum power, fnmax,
the design maximum intake manifold
boost pressure, pinmax, and temperature,
Tinmax. Also, estimate a mean fraction of
power that is lost due to friction and
pumping, P¯frict. Use this information
along with the engine displacement
volume, Vdisp, an approximate
volumetric efficiency, hV, and the
number of engine strokes per power
stroke (two-stroke or four-stroke), Nstroke,
to estimate the maximum raw exhaust
molar flow rate,
n˙exhmax.
(iii) Use your estimated values as
described in the following example
calculation:
Example:
Dtdutycycle = 20 min = 1200 s
P¯ref = 35.65 kW
P¯frict= 15%
Pmax = 125 kW
pmax = 300 kPa = 300000 Pa

for these applications. For steady-state
duty cycles or transient duty cycles with
no idle operation, these requirements do
not apply. Idle points for steady state
duty cycles of such engines are to be run
at conditions simulating neutral or park
on the transmission. You may develop
an alternate procedure for adjusting
CITT as a function of speed, consistent

This section describes the equations
for calculating carbon balance error
quantities used in the carbon balance
error verification described in
§ 1065.543. You may use rectangular or
trapezoidal integration methods to
calculate masses and amounts over a
test interval from continuously
measured or calculated mass and molar
flow rates. Calculate the mass of carbon
in all of the carbon-carrying fluid
streams, intake air into the system, and
exhaust emissions over the test interval.
You may use ECM broadcast signals for
DEF flow rate to calculate the mass of
carbon into the stream from the DEF
system. You may use ECM broadcast
fuel flow rate for field testing to
calculate the mass of carbon in the fuel
stream into the system.
(a) Determine the masses of all the
carbon-carrying fluid streams (fuel and
other (e.g., DEF)) into the system over
each test interval, mfluidj, where j is an
indexing variable that represents one
carbon-carrying fluid stream.
(b) For each test interval calculate the
mass of carbon in all of the carboncarrying fluid streams flowing into the
system as follows:
Where:
wC = carbon mass fraction of the carboncarrying fluid stream as determined in
§ 1065.655(d).
mfluid = the mass of the carbon-carrying fluid
stream determined over the test interval.
j = an indexing variable that represents one
carbon-carrying fluid stream.
M = total number of carbon-carrying fluid
streams into the system over the test
interval.
Example:
wCfuel = 0.869
wCDEF = 0.065
mfuel = 1119.6 g

(3) For field testing, you may calculate
the ratio of total mass to total work,
where these individual values are
determined as described in paragraph (f)
of this section. You may also use this
approach for laboratory testing,
consistent with good engineering
judgment. Good engineering judgment
dictates that this method not be used if
there are any work flow paths described
in § 1065.210 that cross the system
boundary, other than the primary output
shaft (crankshaft). This is a special case
in which you use a signal linearly
proportional to raw exhaust molar flow
rate to determine a value proportional to
total emissions. You then use the same
linearly proportional signal to
determine total work using a chemical
balance of fuel, DEF, intake air, and
exhaust as described in § 1065.655, plus
information about your engine’s brakespecific fuel consumption. Under this
method, flow meters need not meet
accuracy specifications, but they must
meet the applicable linearity and
repeatability specifications in subpart D
or subpart J of this part. The result is a
brake-specific emission value calculated
as follows:

analyzer concentration readings,
including continuous readings, sample
bag readings, and dilution air
background readings, for drift as
described in § 1065.672. Note that you
must omit this step where brake-specific
emissions are calculated without the

When applying the initial THC and CH4

both sets of calculations. You may also
use as-measured values in the initial set
of calculations and corrected values in
the drift-corrected set of calculations as
described in § 1065.520(f)(7).
(iii) Correct all THC and CH4

as described in § 1065.660(a), including
continuous readings, sample bags
readings, and dilution air background
readings.
(iv) Correct all concentrations
measured on a ‘‘dry’’ basis to a ‘‘wet’’

for testing with oxygenated fuels.
(vii) Correct all the NOX
concentrations, including dilution air
background concentrations, for intakeair humidity as described in § 1065.670.
(2) Continuous sampling. For
continuous sampling, you must
frequently record a continuously
updated concentration signal. You may
measure this concentration from a
changing flow rate or a constant flow
rate (including discrete-mode steadystate testing), as follows:
(i) Varying flow rate. If you
continuously sample from a changing
exhaust flow rate, time align and then
multiply concentration measurements
by the flow rate from which you
extracted it. We consider the following
to be examples of changing flows that
require a continuous multiplication of
concentration times molar flow rate: raw
exhaust, exhaust diluted with a constant
flow rate of dilution air, and CVS
dilution with a CVS flow meter that
does not have an upstream heat
exchanger or electronic flow control.
This multiplication results in the flow
rate of the emission itself. Integrate the
emission flow rate over a test interval to
determine the total emission. If the total
emission is a molar quantity, convert
this quantity to a mass by multiplying
it by its molar mass, M. The result is the
mass of the emission, m. Calculate m for
continuous sampling with variable flow
using the following equations:

mNMHC = 25.23 g
(ii) Constant flow rate. If you
continuously sample from a constant
exhaust flow rate, use the same
emission calculations described in
paragraph (c)(2)(i) of this section or
calculate the mean or flow-weighted
concentration recorded over the test
interval and treat the mean as a batch
sample, as described in paragraph
(c)(3)(ii) of this section. We consider the
following to be examples of constant
exhaust flows: CVS diluted exhaust
with a CVS flow meter that has either
an upstream heat exchanger, electronic
flow control, or both.
(3) Batch sampling. For batch
sampling, the concentration is a single
value from a proportionally extracted
batch sample (such as a bag, filter,
impinger, or cartridge). In this case,
multiply the mean concentration of the
batch sample by the total flow from
which the sample was extracted. You
may calculate total flow by integrating
a changing flow rate or by determining
the mean of a constant flow rate, as
follows:
(i) Varying flow rate. If you collect a
batch sample from a changing exhaust
flow rate, extract a sample proportional

and CVS dilution with a CVS flow meter

exchanger or electronic flow control.
Integrate the flow rate over a test
interval to determine the total flow from
which you extracted the proportional
sample. Multiply the mean
concentration of the batch sample by the

extracted. If the total emission is a molar
quantity, convert this quantity to a mass
by multiplying it by its molar mass, M.
The result is the mass of the emission,
m. In the case of PM emissions, where
the mean PM concentration is already in

units of mass per mole of sample, M
simply multiply it by the total flow. The
result is the total mass of PM, mPM.
Calculate m for batch sampling with

mNOx = 46.0055·85.6·10¥6·(25.534 +

mNOx = 4.201 g
(ii) Constant flow rate. If you batch
sample from a constant exhaust flow
rate, extract a sample at a proportional
or constant flow rate. We consider the
following to be examples of constant
exhaust flows: CVS diluted exhaust
with a CVS flow meter that has either
an upstream heat exchanger, electronic
flow control, or both. Determine the
mean molar flow rate from which you
extracted the constant flow rate sample.
Multiply the mean concentration of the
batch sample by the mean molar flow
rate of the exhaust from which the
sample was extracted, and multiply the
result by the time of the test interval. If
the total emission is a molar quantity,
convert this quantity to a mass by
multiplying it by its molar mass, M. The
result is the mass of the emission, m. In
the case of PM emissions, where the
mean PM concentration is already in
¯ PM.,
units of mass per mole of sample, M
simply multiply it by the total flow, and
the result is the total mass of PM, mPM.

(d) Total work over a test interval. To
calculate the total work from the engine
over a test interval, add the total work
from all the work paths described in
§ 1065.210 that cross the system
boundary including electrical energy/
work, mechanical shaft work, and fluid
pumping work. For all work paths,
except the engine’s primary output shaft
(crankshaft), the total work for the path
over the test interval is the integration
of the net work flow rate (power) out of
the system boundary. When energy/
work flows into the system boundary,
this work flow rate signal becomes
negative; in this case, include these
negative work rate values in the
integration to calculate total work from
that work path. Some work paths may
result in a negative total work. Include
negative total work values from any
work path in the calculated total work
from the engine rather than setting the
values to zero. The rest of this paragraph
(d) describes how to calculate total work
from the engine’s primary output shaft
over a test interval. Before integrating
power on the engine’s primary output
shaft, adjust the speed and torque data
for the time alignment used in
§ 1065.514(c). Any advance or delay
used on the feedback signals for cycle
validation must also be used for
calculating work. Account for work of
accessories according to § 1065.110.
Exclude any work during cranking and
starting. Exclude work during actual
motoring operation (negative feedback
torques), unless the engine was
connected to one or more energy storage
devices. Examples of such energy
storage devices include hybrid
powertrain batteries and hydraulic
accumulators, like the ones illustrated
in Figure 1 of § 1065.210. Exclude any
work during reference zero-load idle
periods (0% speed or idle speed with 0
N·m reference torque). Note, that there
must be two consecutive reference zero
load idle points to establish a period
where this applies. Include work during
idle points with simulated minimum
torque such as Curb Idle Transmissions
Torque (CITT) for automatic
transmissions in ‘‘drive’’. The work
calculation method described in
paragraphs (d)(1) though (7) of this
section meets these requirements using
rectangular integration. You may use
other logic that gives equivalent results.
For example, you may use a trapezoidal
integration method as described in
paragraph (d)(8) of this section.

water in the exhaust, which you
determine with a chemical balance of

from the dilute chemical balance. This
may be done by totaling continuous
calculations or by using batch results.
For example, to use batch results, the
total flow of dilution air is calculated by
multiplying the total flow of diluted
exhaust, ndexh, by the flow-weighted
mean mole fraction of dilution air in
diluted exhaust, x¯dil/exh. Calculate x¯dil/exh
using flow-weighted mean
concentrations of emissions in the
chemical balance, as described in

§ 1065.655 assumes that your engine
operates stoichiometrically, even if it is
a lean-burn engine, such as a
compression-ignition engine. Note that
for lean-burn engines this assumption
could result in an error in emission
calculations. This error could occur
because the chemical balance in
§ 1065.655 treats excess air passing
through a lean-burn engine as if it was
dilution air. If an emission
concentration expected at the standard
is about 100 times its dilution air
background concentration, this error is
negligible. However, if an emission
concentration expected at the standard
is similar to its background
concentration, this error could be
significant. If this error might affect your
ability to show that your engines
comply with applicable standards, we
recommend that you either determine
the total flow of dilution air using one
of the more accurate methods in
paragraph (b) or (c) of this section, or
remove background emissions from
dilution air by HEPA filtration,
chemical adsorption, or catalytic
scrubbing. You might also consider
using a partial-flow dilution technique
such as a bag mini-diluter, which uses
purified air as the dilution air.

Linearity verification.
*
*
*
*
*
(a) * * *
(1) Use instrument manufacturer
recommendations and good engineering
judgment to select at least ten reference
values, yrefi, that cover the range of
values that you expect during testing (to
prevent extrapolation beyond the
verified range during emission testing).
We recommend selecting zero as one of
your reference values. For each range
calibrated, if the deviation from a leastsquares best-fit straight line is 2% or
less of the value at each data point,
concentration values may be calculated
by use of a straight-line curve fit for that
range. If the deviation exceeds 2% at
any point, use the best-fit nonlinear
equation that represents the data to
PO 00000
Frm 00217

within 2% of each test point to
determine concentration. If you use a
gas divider to blend calibration gases,
you may verify that the calibration
curve produced names a calibration gas
within 2% of its certified concentration.
Perform this verification between 10
and 60% of the full-scale analyzer
range.

Dynamometers.
*
*
*
*
*
(d) * * *
(3) The load applied by the
dynamometer simulates forces acting on
the vehicle during normal driving
according to the following equation:
E:\FR\FM\12MYP2.SGM
12MYP2
Federal Register / Vol. 85, No. 92 / Tuesday, May 12, 2020 / Proposed Rules
Where:
FR = total road-load force to be applied at the
surface of the roll. The total force is the
sum of the individual tractive forces
applied at each roll surface.
i = a counter to indicate a point in time over
the driving schedule. For a dynamometer
operating at 10-Hz intervals over a 600second driving schedule, the maximum
value of i should be 6,000.
A = a vehicle-specific constant value
representing the vehicle’s frictional load
in lbf or newtons. See subpart D of this
part.
Gi = instantaneous road grade, in percent. If
your duty cycle is not subject to road
grade, set this value to 0.
B = a vehicle-specific coefficient representing
load from drag and rolling resistance,
which are a function of vehicle speed, in
lbf/(mi/hr) or Ns/m. See subpart D of this
part.
v = instantaneous linear speed at the roll
surfaces as measured by the
dynamometer, in mi/hr or m/s. Let vi–1
= 0 for i = 0.
C = a vehicle-specific coefficient representing
aerodynamic effects, which are a
function of vehicle speed squared, in lbf/
(mi/hr)2 or N·s2/m2. See subpart D of this
part.
Me = the vehicle’s effective mass in lbm or
kg, including the effect of rotating axles
as specified in § 1066.310(b)(7).
t = elapsed time in the driving schedule as
measured by the dynamometer, in
seconds. Let ti–1 = 0 for i = 0.
M = the measured vehicle mass, in lbm or kg.
ag = acceleration of Earth’s gravity = 9.80665
m/s2.
§ 1066.270 Unloaded coastdown
verification.
§ 1066.405 Vehicle preparation,
preconditioning, and maintenance.
*
(a) Prepare the vehicle for testing
(including measurement of evaporative
and refueling emissions if appropriate),
as described in the standard-setting part.
(b) If you inspect a vehicle, keep a
record of the inspection and update
your application to document any
changes that result. You may use any
kind of equipment, instrument, or tool
to identify bad engine components or
perform maintenance if it is available at
dealerships and other service outlets.
(c) You may repair a test vehicle as
needed for defective parts that are
unrelated to emission control. You must
ask us to approve repairs that might
affect the vehicle’s emission controls. If
we determine that a part failure, system
malfunction, or associated repairs make
the vehicle’s emission controls
unrepresentative of production engines,
you may no longer use it as an emissiondata vehicle. Also, if engine installed in
the test vehicle has a major mechanical
failure that requires you to take the
vehicle apart, you may no longer use the
vehicle as an emission-data vehicle.
■ 371. Amend § 1066.420 by revising
paragraph (d)(2) to read as follows:
*
*
*
*
(c) * * *
(4) Determine the mean coastdown
force, F¯, for each speed and inertia
setting for each of the coastdowns
performed using the following equation:
Where:
F¯ = the mean force measured during the
coastdown for each speed interval and
inertia setting, expressed in lbf and
rounded to four significant figures.
I = the dynamometer’s inertia setting, in
lbf·s2/ft.
vinit = the speed at the start of the coastdown
interval, expressed in ft/s to at least four
significant figures.
vfinal = the speed at the end of the coastdown
interval, expressed in ft/s to at least four
significant figures.
t = coastdown time for each speed interval
and inertia setting, accurate to at least 0.01
s.
Example:
§ 1066.420
I = 2000 lbm = 62.16 lbf·s2/ft
vinit = 25 mi/hr = 36.66 ft/s
vfinal = 15 mi/hr = 22.0 ft/s
t = 5.00 s

paragraph (c) to read as follows:
Parasitic loss verification.
jbell on DSKJLSW7X2PROD with PROPOSALS2
*
*
*
*
(c) Procedure. Perform this
verification by following the
dynamometer manufacturer’s
specifications to establish a parasitic
loss curve, taking data at fixed speed
intervals to cover the range of vehicle
speeds that will occur during testing.
You may zero the load cell at a selected
speed if that improves your ability to
determine the parasitic loss. Parasitic
loss forces may never be negative. Note
that the torque transducers must be
mathematically zeroed and spanned
prior to performing this procedure.

use any supplemental auxiliary heat
during this testing. You may set the
heater to any temperature and fan
setting during vehicle preconditioning.
(1) Manual control. Unless you rely
on automatic control as specified in
paragraph (c)(2) of this section, take the
following steps to control heater
settings:
(i) Set the climate control system as
follows before the first acceleration (t =
20 s), or before starting the vehicle if the
climate control system allows it:
(A) Temperature. Set controls to
maximum heat. For systems that allow
the operator to select a specific
temperature, set the heater control to
72 °F or higher.
(B) Fan speed. Set the fan speed to
full off or the lowest available speed if
a full off position is not available.

(C) Airflow direction. Direct airflow to
the front window (window defrost
mode).
(D) Air source. If independently
controllable, set the system to draw in
outside air.
(ii) At the second idle of the test
cycle, which occurs 125 seconds after
the start of the test, set the fan speed to
maximum. Complete by 130 seconds
after the start of the test. Leave
temperature and air source settings
unchanged
(iii) At the sixth idle of the test
interval, which occurs at the
deceleration to zero miles per hour 505
seconds after the start of the test, set the
fan speed to the lowest setting that
maintains air flow. Complete these
changes by 510 seconds after the start of
the test. You may use different vent and
fan speed settings for the remainder of
the test. Leave the temperature and air
source settings unchanged.
(2) Automatic control. Vehicles with
automatic control systems may instead
operate as described in this paragraph
(c)(2). Set the temperature to 72 °F in
automatic control for the whole test. If
the system allows the operator to select
the location of the output airflow
PO 00000

without disabling automatic control, set
the air flow control to the front window
defrost mode for the whole test.
(3) Multiple-zone systems. For
vehicles that have separate driver and
passenger controls or separate front and
rear controls, you must set all
temperature and fan controls as
described in paragraphs (c)(1) and (2) of
this section, except that rear controls
need not be set to defrost the front
window.
(4) Alternative test procedures. We
may approve the use of other settings
under 40 CFR 86.1840 if a vehicle’s
climate control system is not compatible
with the provisions of this section.

Improvements for Heavy-Duty Engine and Vehicle Test Procedures,
and Other Technical Amendments
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Proposed rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is proposing changes
to the test procedures for heavy-duty engines and vehicles to improve
accuracy and reduce testing burden. EPA is also proposing other
regulatory amendments concerning light-duty vehicles, heavy-duty
vehicles, highway motorcycles, locomotives, marine engines, other
nonroad engines and vehicles, stationary engines. These would affect
the certification procedures for exhaust emission standards, and
related requirements. EPA is proposing similar amendments for
evaporative emission standards for nonroad equipment and portable fuel
containers. These amendments would increase compliance flexibility,
harmonize with other requirements, add clarity, correct errors, and
streamline the regulations. Given the nature of the proposed changes,
they would have neither significant environmental impacts nor
significant economic impacts for any sector.

The majority of amendments being proposed would modify existing
test procedures for heavy-duty highway engines and vehicles. These test
procedure changes would improve accuracy, and in some cases, reduce
test burden. They would apply for measurement of criteria pollutants
(such as NOX), as well as greenhouse gas pollutants
(primarily CO2).
Other heavy-duty highway amendments would update EPA regulations to
enhance implementation of existing emission standards. For example,
some changes would reduce the likelihood that manufacturers would need
to duplicate certification efforts to comply with EPA, Canadian, and
Californian standards. Some amendments would make it easier for
manufacturers to more fully account for the emission benefits of
advanced emission control technology, which could provide them the
opportunity to generate additional emission credits. These heavy-duty
highway amendments are described in Section II.
This notice also proposes other amendments that are generally
administrative or technical in nature and include amendments for
nonroad engines and vehicles. These amendments are described in Section
III. Perhaps the most visible administrative amendment would be the
elimination of hundreds of pages of obsolete regulations, which is
described in Section III.B.
C. What are the incremental costs and benefits of this action?
This action is limited in scope and is not intended to include
amendments that would have significant economic or environmental
impacts. EPA has not drafted a Regulatory Impact Analysis.
Heavy-Duty Highway Amendments
A. Test Procedures and Compliance Model Changes
Since the promulgation of the Phase 2 regulations, manufacturers
have been revising their internal test procedures to ensure they will
be able to comply with the new requirements that begin in model year
2021. In doing so, they have identified several areas in which the test
procedure regulations could be improved (in terms of overall accuracy,
repeatability and clarity) without changing the effective stringency of
the standards. Commenters who believe that EPA has included changes
that change the stringency of the standards are encouraged to consider
the potential impact in the context of the full range of proposed
changes to the test procedures, and to suggest ways in which EPA could
avoid the impact of such changes on stringency.
EPA is proposing numerous changes to the test procedure regulations
to address manufacturers' concerns and to address other issues we have
identified. These proposed changes are described below. The list
includes numerous editorial changes that simply correct typographical/
formatting errors or revise the text to improve clarity. Although these
amendments are being proposed primarily in the context of heavy-duty
engines and vehicles, the proposed amendments to part 1065 will also
apply to nonroad engines, and the proposed amendments to part 1066 will
also apply to light-duty vehicles. However, since these amendments are
mostly editorial or adding flexibility, they will not adversely impact
these other sectors.
1. 40 CFR Part 1036 Test Procedures
The regulations in 40 CFR part 1036, subpart F, specify how to
measure emissions from heavy-duty engines. The test procedure
amendments being proposed for part 1036 are primarily for the purposes
of adding flexibility and reducing variability in test results.
Additional information that led to proposal of many of these changes
arose from a test program at Southwest Research Institute (SwRI) that
was jointly funded by EPA and the Engine Manufacturers Association
(EMA). These amendments are summarized below, and readers are referred
to the proposed part 1036, subpart F regulatory text for additional
information. Amendments for other subparts of part 1036 (i.e.,
amendments not directly related to test procedures) are discussed in
Section I.C.
1036.501(g)--Adding a new paragraph (g) to denote duty
cycles for testing MY 2016-2020 engines.
[[Page 28142]]
1036.501(h)--Adding a new paragraph (h)(2) to cross-
reference citation of transient test cycle specification for testing MY
2021 and later engines. In paragraph (h)(3)(ii), adding clarification
that weighting factors for the Ramped Modal Cycle (RMC) are to be
applied to CO2 to calculate the composite emission result.
Note that this proposed rule includes amendments to refer to the
steady-state duty cycle as the Ramped Modal Cycle rather than the
Supplemental Emission Test.
1036.503--Migrating 1036.510 to new 1036.503. Updating
existing paragraph (c) and adding a new (c)(4) and (d)(4). The new text
specifies that the engine manufacturer must provide idle speed and
torque to the vehicle manufacturer. Additional direction given on
handling data points for a low speed governor where the governor is
active.

of engines and hybrids to facilitate hybrid certification for both GHG
and criteria pollutants.
1036.525(d)(4)(ii)--Editorial revisions to equation and
example calculations.
1036.527--New section added to provide a means to
determine hybrid powertrain systems rated power. This is needed to
facilitate the addition of the hybrid powertrain testing option.
1036.530(b)(1)(i) and (2)--Updating to require test fuel
mass-specific energy content to be analyzed by three different labs and
the arithmetic mean to be used in the calculation. Updating carbon mass
fraction determination to allow analysis by a single lab only to
facilitate on-line analysis from pipeline supplied natural gas. Updated
to add ASTM method for determination of test fuel mass-specific energy
content for natural gas.
1036.530 Table 1--Updated footnote format in table.
1036.535--Generally updating to improve the engine fuel
mapping test procedures based on the jointly funded EPA-EMA test

fuel mapping test procedure as a result of the jointly funded EPA-EMA
test program at SwRI. The overall result of these updates is to reduce
the variability of the emission test results to improve lab-to-lab
variability.

error verification. This is a result of the jointly funded EPA-EMA test
program. The overall result of these updates is to reduce the
variability of the emission test results to improve lab-to-lab
variability.
2. 40 CFR Part 1037 Test Procedures
The regulations in 40 CFR part 1037, subpart F, specify how to
measure emissions from heavy-duty vehicles. They also specify how to
measure certain GEM inputs, such as aerodynamic drag, rolling
resistance, and axle efficiency. The test procedure amendments being
proposed for part 1037, which are summarized below, are primarily for
the purpose of reducing variability in test results and adding optional
test procedures. Given the technical nature of these proposed
amendments, readers are referred to the regulatory text for additional
details. Proposed amendments for other subparts of part 1037 (i.e.,
amendments not directly related to test procedures) are discussed in
Section I.C.
1037.105 Table 1--Updated footnote format in table.
1037.106 Table 1--Updated footnote format in table.

apply italics to ``i''.
1037.560--Making it optional to drain gear oil after break
in. Providing the option of an alternative temperature range to provide
harmonization with EC test procedure. Also, edits pertaining to improve
the readability of the Ploss (i.e., power loss) variable description.
1037.565--Providing an option to map additional test
points. Also, edits pertaining to improve the readability of the Ploss
variable description.
1037.570--Adding new section to determine torque converter
capacity factor. This will allow a manufacturer to determine their own
torque converter capacity factor instead of using the default value
provided in GEM. The option to use the default value still remains.
3. 40 CFR Part 1065 Test Procedures
The regulations in 40 CFR part 1065 specify general procedures for
measuring emissions from engines--heavy-duty highway engines, as well
as nonroad engines. The amendments being proposed for part 1065, which
are summarized below, are primarily for the purpose of reducing
variability in test results.
The regulations in part 1065 rely heavily on acronyms and
abbreviations (see 40 CFR 1065.1005 for a complete list). Acronyms used
here are summarized in the following table:
[[Page 28143]]
------------------------------------------------------------------------
------------------------------------------------------------------------
ASTM............................. American Society for Testing and
Materials
CVS.............................. Constant-Volume Sampler
DEF.............................. Diesel Exhaust Fluid
ECM.............................. Electronic Control Module
NIST............................. National Institute for Standards and
Technology
NMC FID.......................... Nonmethane Cutter with a Flame
Ionization Detector
NMHC............................. Nonmethane Hydrocarbon
NMNEHC........................... Nonmethane Nonethane Hydrocarbon
RMC.............................. Ramped Modal Cycle
THC FID.......................... Flame Ionization Detector for Total
Hydrocarbons
------------------------------------------------------------------------
In addition to the amendments listed below that are being proposed
for part 1065, we request comment on the use of ASTM test method D2784
to measure the sulfur content in liquefied petroleum gas test fuels.
This method, which is specified as the applicable test method in Sec.
1065.720, has been withdrawn by ASTM without replacement. We request
comment on whether we should continue to specify this method or specify
an active method. For example, should we specify ASTM D6667 instead and
incorporate it by reference into the regulations?
1065.1(g)--Updated test procedure URL.
1065.130(e)--Revised language to denote that carbon
balance should be performed to verify exhaust system integrity in place
of chemical balance.

aqueous condensation. Given that the concern is loss of NO2
in the sampling system, the pump itself doesn't necessarily need to be
heated as there are a number of ways to prevent condensation.
1065.170--Revised to allow you to stop sampling during
hybrid tests when the engine is off and allow exclusion of the sampling
off portions of the test from the proportional sampling verification.
Also added provision for hybrid testing to allow supplemental dilution
air to be added to the bag in the event that sampled volumes are too
low for emission analysis.

Fuel mass scale and DEF mass scale to the linearity verifications in
1065.307. Updated verification in 1065.341 to replace ``batch sampler''
with ``PFD'' as PFD is the preferred language. Updated one, and added
two, footnotes excluding linearity verification for DEF flow if the ECM
is used and for fuel and intake air flow if propane checks or carbon
balance is performed. This is not a new exemption, it just relocates it
to the footnote area.
1065.307(d)(4)--Revised to include DEF mass flow rate. The
paragraph is also enhanced to include additional requirement to correct
or account for buoyancy effects and flow disturbances to improve the
flow measurement.
1065.307(d)(6)(i)--Revised to state that the span gas can
only contain one single constituent in balance air (or N2 if
using a gas analyzer) as the reference signal for linearity
determination.
1065.307(d)(7)--Revised to state that the span gas can
only contain one single constituent in balance air (or N2 if
using a gas analyzer) as the reference signal for linearity
determination.

and moved the existing (c) to (b) as this is now adequately covered in
1065.307.
1065.341 introductory text--Revised to clarify which
subparagraphs apply to CVS and which apply to PFD.
1065.341(g)--Revised to replace ``batch sampler'' with

1065.360(a)(4)--Added new requirement to determine methane
and ethane THC FID response factors as a function of exhaust molar
water content when measuring emissions from a gaseous fueled engine.
This is to account for the effect water has on non-methane cutters.
1065.360(d)(12)--Added process to determine methane and
ethane THC FID response factors as a function of exhaust molar water
content when measuring emissions from a gaseous fueled engine. This is
to account for the effect water has on non-methane cutters.
1065.365(d)--Added new requirement to determine NMC FID
methane penetration fraction and ethane response factor as a function
of exhaust molar water content when measuring emissions from a gaseous
fueled engine. This is to account for the effect water has on non-
methane cutters.
1065.365(d)(10) and (11)--Added process to determine NMC
FID methane penetration fraction and ethane response factors as a
function of exhaust molar water content when measuring emissions from a
gaseous fueled engine. This is to account for the effect water has on
non-methane cutters.

for engine stabilization during mapping and relocated it to
1065.510(b)(5)(i), which lays out the mapping procedure. Added a
recommended stabilization time at each setpoint. Also added allowance
to specify CITT as a function of idle speed in cases where an engine
has an adjustable warm idle or enhanced idle.
1065.512(b)(1) and (2)--Added additional procedures on how
to operate the engine and validate the duty-cycle when an engine
utilized enhanced-idle speed. This also addresses denormalization of
the reference torque when enhanced-idle speed is active.
1065.530(a)(2)(iii)--Added new instruction on how to
determine that the engine temperature has stabilized for air cooled
engines. Part 1065 is deficient on how to determine this.
1065.530(g)(5)--New paragraph to cover carbon balance
error verification if it is performed as part of the test sequence.

measuring emissions from vehicles. The amendments being proposed for
part 1066, which are summarized below, are primarily editorial.
1066.1(g)--Updated to current URL.
1066.135(a)(1)--Widened the range for verifications of a
gas divider derived analyzer calibration curve to 10 to 60%. This is to
ease lab burden with respect to the number of gas cylinders they must
have on hand. Also, made this midspan check optional as it is no longer
needed because part 1066 requires yearly linearity verification of the
gas divider.
1066.210(d)(3)--Changed acceleration of Earth's gravity
from calculation under 40 CFR 1065.630 to a default value of 9.80665 m/
s\2\. This was changed because the track coastdown doesn't take place
in the same location that the dynamometer resides. Therefore, best
practice is to use a default value for gravity.
1066.255(c)--Added clarification that the torque
transducer zero and span are mathematically done prior to the start of
the procedure.
1066.270(c)(4)--Corrected units for force in mean force

format consistency.
1066.710(c)(1)(A)--Updated for clarity.
1066.710(c)(2)--Updated to more clearly reflect how
automatic HVAC control operates in vehicles and how it should be
operated for the test.
1066.801 Figure 1--Updated to reflect that the initial
vehicle soak, as outlined in the regulations, is a 6-hour minimum and
not a range of 6 to 36 hours.
1066.930--Added a period to the end of the sentence.
1066.1005(c) and (d)--Updated to follow NIST SP-811
format.
1066.1005(f)--Updated footnote format in table.
5. Greenhouse Gas Emissions Model (GEM)
GEM is a computer application that estimates the greenhouse gas
(GHG) emissions and fuel efficiency performance of specific aspects of
heavy-duty (HD) vehicles. Under the existing Phase 2 regulations, GEM
3.0 is used to determine compliance with the Phase 2 standards from
several vehicle-specific inputs, such as engine fuel maps, aerodynamic
drag coefficients, and vehicle weight rating.\3\ GEM simulates engine
operation over two cruise cycles, one transient cycle, and for
vocational vehicles, idle operation. These results are weighted by GEM
to provide a composite GEM score that is compared to the standard.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\3\ Greenhouse gas Emissions Model (GEM) Phase 2, Version 3.0,
July 2016. A working version of this software is also available for
download at https://www.epa.gov/otaq/climate/gem.htm. This version
has been incorporated by reference at 40 CFR 1037.810.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
EPA is to incorporate by reference into the regulations a revised
version of GEM (Version 3.5) for manufacturers to demonstrate
compliance with the Phase 2 standards.\4\ The following changes have
been incorporated in the proposed new version, to allow additional
compliance flexibilities and improve the vehicle simulation:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\4\ Greenhouse gas Emissions Model (GEM) Phase 2, Version 3.5,
November 2019. A working version of this software is also available
for download at https://www.epa.gov/otaq/climate/gem.htm.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Correcting how idle emission rates are used in the model.
Increasing the allowable weight reduction range to 25,000
pounds.
For powertrain input, adding an input for powertrain rated
power to scale default engine power.
Recalibrated driver over speed allowance on cruise cycles
from 3 mph to 2.5 mph.
Revised engine cycle generation outputs with corrected
engine cycle generation torque output from model based on simulated
inertia and rate limited speed target.
Added scaling of powertrain simulation default engine and
transmission maps based on new rated power input.
Changed interpolation of fuel map used in post processing
to be consistent with one used in simulation.
Powertrain accessory load correction.
Add torque converter k-factor input option.
Cycle average cycles: add flag for points that are to be
considered ``idle.''
Improved handling of large input tables.
Of these, the changes for idling emissions are the most
significant. GEM 3.0 included an error where parked idle fuel map was
used for ARB transient idle correction, which has been corrected for
GEM 3.5 to use the drive idle portion of the map. (Note also that
parked fuel map is now only required for vocational vehicles.) GEM 3.5
reads idle speed from the vehicle file and allows manufacturers to use
default values that EPA used to develop the standards. Other idle
changes include additional adjustments to cycle average fuel for
differences between mapped idle and simulated idle using non-moving
average speed and load of the ARB transient cycle average map,
regression lookup of cycle average map uses only portions with vehicle
moving, and post-process adjustment to fuel consumption based on
simulated idle speed/load.
Preliminary evaluations of GEM 3.5 indicate that there is little
difference between GEM 3.0 and GEM 3.5 for cruise cycle operation.
However, it is possible some minor differences may be observed for
transient and idle operation of some vocational vehicles. We request
comment on whether these differences would impact impact the effective
stringency of the standards and whether either GEM or the regulations
need to be revised to address them.
B. Heavy-Duty Engine GHG Emission Standards and Flexibility
1. Vocational Engines and Emission Credits
We are proposing to revise how Phase 1 engine credits from
vocational engines are treated in the Phase 2 program. As described
below, we are proposing to allow more flexibility provided the credits
are adjusted to accurately reflect the correct baseline.
In developing the baseline emission rates for vocational engines in
the final Phase 2 rulemaking, we considered MY 2016 FTP certification
data for diesel engines, which showed an unexpected step-change
improvement in engine fuel consumption and CO2 emissions
compared to data considered in the proposed rule. The proposed baseline
emission rates came from the Phase 1 standards, which in turn were
derived from our estimates of emission rates for 2010 engines. The
underlying reasons for this shift in the final rule were mostly related
to manufacturers optimizing their SCR thermal management strategy over
the FTP in ways that we (mistakenly) thought they already had in MY
2010 (i.e., the Phase 1 baseline).
As background, the FTP includes a cold-start, a hot-start and
significant time spent at engine idle. During these portions of the
FTP, the NOX SCR system can cool down and lose
NOX reducing efficiency. To maintain SCR temperature,
manufacturers initially used a simplistic strategy of burning extra
fuel to heat the exhaust system. However, during the development of
Phase 1, EPA believed manufacturers were using more sophisticated and
efficient strategies to maintain SCR temperature. EPA's
misunderstanding of the baseline technology for Phase 1 provided engine
manufacturers the opportunity to generate windfall credits against the
FTP standards.
For the Phase 2 FRM, EPA revised the baseline emission rate for
vocational engines to reflect the actual certified emission levels. The
Phase 2 vocational engine final CO2 baseline emissions are
shown in the table below. More detailed analyses on these Phase 2
baseline values of tractor and vocational vehicles can be found in
Chapter 2.7.4 of the Phase 2 Final RIA.\5\

------------------------------------------------------------------------
EPA did not allow the carryover of Phase 1 vocational engine
credits into the Phase 2 program, consistent with these adjustments to
the baselines. Since this issue does not apply for RMC emissions, the
restriction was applied only for engines certified exclusively to the
FTP standards (rather than both FTP and RMC standards). We believed
that allowing engine credits generated against the Phase 1 diesel FTP
standards to be carried over into the Phase 2 program would have
inappropriately diluted the Phase 2 engine program. However, this was
in the context of unadjusted credits. After further consideration, we
now believe that it would not dilute the program if the credits were
appropriately adjusted to more accurately reflect improvement over the
true baseline levels.
Allowing the portion of the credits that represent actual emission
improvements to be carried forward would be consistent with our
rationale from Phase 2. Thus, we are proposing in Sec. 1036.701(j)
that for Phase 1 vocational engines with emissions below the Phase 2
baseline engine values, manufacturers may recalculate and generate
credits relative to the baseline levels. The recalculated vocational
engine credits would be allowed into the Phase 2 engine program to the
same extent as tractor engine credits.
As noted in the Phase 2 FRM, allowing additional flexibility for
compliance with engine standards does not cause any increase in
emissions because the manufacturers must still comply with the vehicle
standards. (See 81 FR 73499). However, this flexibility could allow
some manufacturers to find a less expensive compliance path. We request
comment on these proposed changes and any potential impact.
2. Confirmatory Testing of Engines and Measurement Variability
During the Phase 2 rulemaking, manufacturers raised concern about
measurement variability impacting the stringency of the engine GHG
standards and fuel map requirements. As noted in the Phase 2 FRM, the
final standards were developed to account for this. (81 FR 73571,
October 25, 2016).
Manufacturers raised particular concern about variability of fuel
map measurements because neither they nor EPA had sufficient experience
measuring fuel maps (in a regulatory context) to fully understand
potential impacts. We estimated the fuel map uncertainty to be
equivalent to the uncertainty associated with measuring CO2
emission and fuel consumption over the FTP and RMC cycles, which we
estimated to be about one percent. However, the Phase 2 FRM further
noted that we would incorporate test procedure improvements that would
futher reduce test result uncertainty. We also noted that: ``If we
determine in the future . . . that the +1.0 percent we factored into
our stringency analysis was inappropriately low or high, we will
promulgate technical amendments to the regulations to address any
inappropriate impact this +1.0 percent had on the stringency of the
engine and vehicle standards.'' (81 FR 73571, October 25, 2016)
In conjunction with this commitment, EPA agreed to work with engine
manufacturers to better understand the variability of measuring fuel
maps. Through that work, we identified several sources of variability
that could be reduced by making small changes to the test procedures.
EPA is proposing these changes, which are listed in Sections I.A.1
through I.A.3 of this NPRM.
SwRI performed emission measurements in multiple test cells and
identified distributions of error for other test inputs such measured
fuel properties and calibration gas concentrations. SwRI then used a
Monte Carlo simulation to estimate a distribution of errors in measured
fuel maps.\6\ After reviewing the results, EPA has three significant
observations:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\6\ ``Measurement Variability Assessment of the GHG Phase 2 Fuel
Mapping Procedure'', Southwest Research Institute, Final Report,
December 2019.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. The variability of measuring CO2 and fuel consumption
during fuel mapping is greater than the one percent assumed in the
Phase 2 FRM.
2. The variability of measuring CO2 and fuel consumption
during the fuel mapping procedure is roughly the same as that of the
FTP and RMC cycles.
3. Measuring CO2 and fuel consumption at idle is
particularly challenging.
Given these results, we understand why manufacturers would be
concerned about the possibility of EPA changing an official fuel map
results as a consequence of EPA confirmatory testing where the measured
maps were within the expected range of variability. On the other hand,
the similarity between the variability of measuring fuel maps and the
variability of measuring CO2 and fuel consumption over the
FTP and RMC cycles (measurements for which EPA has already determined
in both Phase 1 and Phase 2 that no such allowances are needed)
suggests that manufacturers should ultimately be able to comply without
any special provisions.
We are also considering this issue in the context of our
longstanding policy that emission measurements made at our National
Vehicle and Fuel Emissions Laboratory are official emission results.
(See for example, Sec. 1036.235.) We are hesitant to change any long-
standing policy in a technical amendment rulemaking. Nevertheless,
while we believe this issue ultimately will need to be addressed in a
broader context, we are proposing a transitional approach to address
the issue of engine mapping variability, as discussed below.
We are proposing an interim provision in 40 CFR 1036.150, under
which EPA will not replace a manufacturer's fuel maps during
confirmatory testing if the EPA-measured fuel maps were within 2.0
percent of the manufacturer's maps. We are proposing this as an interim
provision but are not including an end date at this time. We would
intend to reevaluate this provision as we learn more about the impact
of measurement variability during fuel mapping, including the full
impact of the proposed test procedure improvements that are intended to
reduce measurement variability.
Since, this 2.0 percent reflects real testing variability, EPA
anticipates that manufacturers could not know how the variability would
affect an individual test result, which would preclude them from
relying upon this margin for compliance in current engine designs or in
any potential engine redesign. Additionally, EPA emphasizes that we are
proposing to adopt this as an interim provision, and thus manufacturers
should not otherwise rely on this provision as a compliance strategy
for engine design, as EPA intends to revisit it based on further data
and developments.
We are also proposing an algorithm for comparing fuel maps to one
another. Because fuel maps are multi-point surfaces instead of single
values, it would be a common occurrence that some of EPA's points would
be higher than the manufacturer's while others would be lower.
We propose that EPA's measured fuel maps would be used with GEM
according to Sec. 1036.540 to generate emission duty cycles which
simulate several different vehicle configurations, generating emission
results for each of the vehicles for each of the duty cycles.
[[Page 28147]]
Each individual duty cycle result could be weighted using the
appropriate vehicle category weighting factors in Table 1 of 40 CFR
1037.510 to determine a composite CO2 emission value for
that vehicle configuration. If the process is repeated for the
manufacturer's fuel maps, the average percent difference between fuel
maps could be calculated as:
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TP12MY20.000
Where:
i = an indexing variable that represents one individual weighted
duty cycle result for a vehicle configuration.
N = total number of vehicle configurations.
eCO2compEPA = total composite mass of CO2 emissions in g/
ton-mile for the EPA confirmatory test, rounded to the nearest whole
number for vocational vehicles and to the first decimal place for
tractors.
eCO2compManu = total composite mass of CO2 emissions in
g/ton-mile for the manufacturer test, rounded to the nearest whole
number for vocational vehicles and to the first decimal place for
tractors.
We request comment on the interim approach, and whether it
appropriately balances the impacts of testing variability for fuel
maps.
3. Other Minor Heavy-Duty Engine Amendments
EPA is proposing three additional amendments to part 1036:
Correcting the assigned N2O deterioration
factor in Sec. 1036.150(g). In the Phase 2 NPRM, EPA proposed to lower
the N2O standard from 0.10 g/hp-hr to 0.05 g/hp-hr for model
year 2021 and later diesel engines. In that context, we also proposed
to lower the assigned deterioration factor (DF) from 0.020 g/hp-hr to
0.010 g/hp-hr for model year 2021 and later diesel engines. EPA
explained in the preamble that we were not finalizing the change to the
standard (81 FR 73530), but inadvertently finalized the proposed DF
change in the regulations. Today, EPA is proposing to correct the DF
back to 0.020 g/hp-hr for all diesel engines, consistent with the
continuation of the 0.10 g/hp-hr N2O standard.
Clarifying a reference to non-gasoline engine families in
Sec. 1036.705(b)(5). The second sentence of Sec. 1036.705(b)(5) is
intended to refer to non-gasoline engine families. However, the
existing text is not clear. As written, it can be read to mean that
gasoline engine families may not generate emission credits. EPA is
proposing to add ``non-gasoline'' to make the intended meaning clearer.
Engine families. Proposing to allow engine families to be
divided into subfamilies with respect to CO2. This allowance
would simplify the certification process without changing the overall
requirements.
Adding a summary of previously applicable emission
standards as Appendix I of part 1036. The proposed new Appendix is
needed for reference to previously applicable emission standards and
will cover regulatory text being deleted from 40 CFR part 86.
C. Heavy-Duty Vehicle GHG Emission Standards and Flexibility
1. Considerations of Aerodynamic Compliance Data
The aerodynamic drag of a vehicle is determined by the vehicle's
coefficient of drag (Cd), frontal area, air density and
speed. The regulations in Sec. 1037.525 allow manufacturers to use a
range of techniques, including wind tunnel testing, computational fluid
dynamics, and constant speed tests. This broad approach is appropriate
given that no single test procedure is superior in all aspects to other
approaches. However, we also recognized the need for consistency and a
level playing field in evaluating aerodynamic performance. To address
the consistency and level playing field concerns, EPA adopted an
approach that identified coastdown testing as the reference aerodynamic
test method, and specified a procedure to align results from other
aerodynamic test procedures with the reference method by applying a
correction factor (Falt-aero) to results from alternative
methods (Sec. 1037.525(b)).
With this approach, it is important that Falt-aero be
accurate. Thus, the regulations (Sec. 1037.525(b)) require that
manufacturers use good engineering judgement \7\ when developing
Falt-aero, which would include considering all applicable
coastdown data that are available. The applicable test data would be
those coastdown results that were collected according to the specified
test procedures, whether collected by the manufacturer during
certification and SEAs, or by EPA during confirmatory testing.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\7\ Good engineering judgment means judgments made consistent
with generally accepted scientific and engineering principles and
all available relevant information. See 40 CFR 1068.5 for additional
discussion about applying good engineering judgment.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Consider the hypothetical example shown in the figure below, where
a manufacturer has coastdown results for eight vehicles. The plot shows
the coastdown results corrected to represent wind averaged
CdA, plotted against the corresponding wind average wind
tunnel results. Applying good engineering judgement to such a dataset
would lead a manufacturer to separate the vehicles into two groups,
with each having its own Falt-aero value. The manufacturer
would then need to work with EPA to determine how to appropriately
apply these Falt-aero values to other vehicle
configurations.
As described in 40 CFR 1037.235, EPA may perform confirmatory
testing on the manufacturer's vehicles, including a vehicle tested to
establish the Falt-aero value. The regulations also include
an interim provision in Sec. 1037.150(s) that states:
If we conduct coastdown testing to verify your
Falt-aero value for Phase 2 tractors, we will make our
determination using a statistical analysis consistent with the
principles of SEA testing in Sec. 1037.305. We will calculate
confidence intervals using the same equations and will not replace
your test results with ours if your result falls within our
confidence interval or is greater than our test result.
We are proposing to revise the interim allowance in Sec. 1037.150(s)
to require EPA to perform a minimum of 100 valid runs before replacing
a manufacturer's value.
Test conditions for coastdown testing are another important
consideration. For our testing, EPA intends to minimize the differences
between our test conditions and those of the manufacturer by testing at
similar times of the year. However, because of the limited number of
coastdown test facilities and the challenges of
[[Page 28148]]
scheduling time for testing, we cannot commit to testing during the
same season as the manufacturer. In addition, even if we could test
during the same season, we cannot prevent differences in test
conditions.
Some manufacturers have expressed concern that this approach leaves
too much risk for them because changing an Falt-aero value
would impact a large portion of their production and could undermine
their compliance plans. These manufacturers suggest that EPA should
revise the regulations to provide for larger differences before EPA is
allowed to replace their value. Although we understand this concern, we
do not believe the manufacturers' suggestion would be the appropriate
long-term solution. When multiple measurements provide different
values, good engineering judgment would generally call for more data
rather than selecting a single value. Keeping with this principle, EPA
is requesting comment on a potential allowance for manufacturers to
conduct additional coastdown testing in response to a change by EPA to
their Falt-aero value through a 40 CFR 1068.5 good
engineering judgment request. EPA would attempt to be present to
witness the testing, and potentially take our own measurements. EPA
would follow the procedures under 40 CFR 1068.5 in responding to the
manufacturer to determine an appropriate Falt-aero value,
consistent with good engineering judgment.
Section 208 of the Act provides EPA broad oversight authority for
manufacturer testing. Consistent with that authority, we are proposing
to add a provision to our regulations at 40 CFR 1037.525(b)(8) to
encourage manufacturers to proactively coordinate with EPA to have
compliance staff present when a manufacturer conducts its coastdown
testing to establish Falt-aero values. Being present for the
testing would give EPA greater confidence that the test was conducted
properly, and thus, would make it less likely that EPA would need to
conduct aerodynamic confirmatory testing on the vehicle. Additionally,
under our current regulations, see 40 CFR 1037.301 and 1037.305, EPA
may require, and generally intends to require for the 2021 model year,
that manufacturers perform SEA testing of at least one of their
reference configurations.
We are also proposing to revise the minimum number of runs required
for a manufacturer to fail an SEA. Under the current Phase 2
regulations, a manufacturer could fail an SEA after as few as 24 valid
runs. However, review of more recently available indicates that false
failures may occur if the decision is based on 24 runs. Therefore, we
are proposing to require a minimum of 100 valid runs before a vehicle
is deemed to have failed the SEA test.
While we believe that these changes and clarifications would
largely address the manufacturers' concerns, we request comment on
other possible improvements to the aerodynamic test procedures and
compliance program.
2. Idle Reduction for Tractors
The Phase 1 version of GEM gives credit for idle emission reduction
technologies that include a tamper-proof automatic engine shutoff
system (AESS), with few override provisions. Phase 2 GEM gives credit
for a wider variety of idle reduction strategies, recognizing
technologies that are available on the market today, such as auxiliary
power units (APUs), diesel fired heaters, and battery powered units.
For example, a tamper-proof AESS with a diesel APU would be credited
with a 4 percent reduction in emissions, while an adjustable AESS with
a diesel fired heater would be credited with a 2 percent reduction in
emissions (See 81 FR 73601, October 25, 2016).
We now realize that the regulations should also recognize
combinations of these technologies. It is common for sleeper-cab
tractors to include a combination of these technologies to address a
broader range of ambient temperatures. For example, a fuel operated
heater may be used for heating during the winter months, while a
battery APU may be used for air conditioning in the summer. Therefore,
we are proposing to add the following combinations of idle reduction
technologies to Table 9 of Sec. 1037.520. By adding these values to
GEM, it would reduce the compliance burden for manufacturers who would
otherwise need to pursue off-cycle credits for these technology
combinations. The values of the proposed technology benefits were
determined using the same methodology used in the Phase 2 final rule.

3. Manufacturer Testing of Production Vehicles
The regulations will require tractor manufacturers to annually
chassis test five production vehicles over the GEM cycles to verify
that relative reductions simulated in GEM are being achieved in actual
production. See 40 CFR 1037.665. We do not expect absolute correlation
between GEM results and chassis testing. GEM makes many simplifying
assumptions that do not compromise its usefulness for certification but
do cause it to produce emission rates different from what would be
measured during a chassis dynamometer test. Given the limits of
correlation possible between GEM and chassis testing, we would not
expect such testing to accurately reflect whether a vehicle was
compliant with the GEM standards. Therefore, Sec. 1037.665 does not
apply compliance liability to such testing. Rather, this testing will
be for informational purposes only. (81 FR 73638, October 25, 2016.)
The regulation also allows manufacturers to request approval of
alternative testing ``that will provide equivalent or better
information.'' Manufacturers have asked us to clarify this allowance.
Therefore, we are proposing to explicitly allow CO2 data
[[Page 28149]]
from in-use operation, and CO2 data from manufacturer-run
on-road testing. To qualify, the vehicles would need to be actual
production vehicles rather than custom-built prototype vehicles. Such
vehicles could be covered by testing or manufacturer owned exemptions
but would need to be produced on an assembly line or other normal
production practices. Manufacturers would also need to ensure test
methods are sufficiently similar from year to year to allow for a
meaningful analysis of trends.
4. Canadian Vehicle Standards
During the Phase 2 rulemaking, Environment and Climate Change
Canada (ECCC) emphasized that the highway weight limitations in Canada
are much greater than those in the U.S. Where the U.S. federal highways
have limits of 80,000 pounds gross combined weight, Canadian provinces
have weight limits up to 140,000 pounds. This difference could
potentially limit emission reductions that could be achieved if ECCC
were to fully harmonize with the U.S.'s HD Phase 2 standards because a
significant portion of the tractors sold in Canada have GCWR (Gross
Combined Weight Rating) greater than EPA's 120,000-pound weight
criterion for ``heavy-haul'' tractors.
EPA addressed this in Phase 2 by adopting provisions that allow the
manufacturers the option for vehicles above 120,000 pounds GCWR to meet
the more stringent standards that reflect the ECCC views on appropriate
technology improvements, along with the powertrain requirements that go
along with higher GCWR (see 81 FR 73582, October 25, 2016). Vehicles in
the 120,000 to 140,000 pound GCWR range would normally be treated as
simple ``heavy haul'' tractors in GEM, which eliminates the GEM input
for aerodynamics. However, vehicles certified to the optional standards
would be classified as ``heavy Class 8'' tractors in GEM, which then
requires an aerodynamic input. Nevertheless, they both use the heavier
payload for heavy haul.
ECCC has since adopted final standards for these tractors, which
differ from the optional standards finalized in Phase 2.\10\ Since the
purpose of these standards was to facilitate certification of vehicles
intended for Canada, we are now proposing to revise our optional
standards to be the same as the final ECCC standards. The proposed
standards can be found in Sec. 1037.670. Note that these standards are
not directly comparable to either the normal Class 8 standards or the
heavy haul standards of Sec. 1037.106 because GEM uses different
inputs for them.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
ECCC has also adopted new standards for tractors in the 97,000 to
120,000-pound GCWR category. We request comment on the need for special
provisions for these vehicles.
5. Vehicle Model Year Definition
For Phase 2 tractors and vocational vehicles, the vehicle's
regulatory model year is usually the calendar year corresponding to the
date of manufacture. However, the Phase 2 regulations allow the
vehicle's model year to be designated to be the year before the
calendar year corresponding to the date of manufacture if the engine's
model year is from an earlier year.
After promulgation of the FRM, it became apparent that the Phase 2
vehicle model year definition does not allow starting a vehicle model
year before January 1st of the named model year if the engine model
year also begins in the earlier year. For example, if a manufacturer
would start its 2024 engine model year in December 2023, the definition
would not allow vehicles produced in 2023 to be model year 2024.
To address this issue, EPA is proposing to add back the option to
allow the vehicle's model year to be designated to be the year after
the calendar year of manufacture. In other words, we would allow
manufacturers to meet standards earlier to ensure that engine and
vehicle model years are aligned. Model years would still be constrained
to reflect annual (rather than multi-year) production periods and
include January 1 of the named year.
6. Compliance Margins for GEM Inputs
The regulations at 40 CFR 1037.620(d) allow components
manufacturers to conduct testing for vehicle manufacturers, but they do
not specify restrictions for the format of the data. Vehicle
manufacturers have raised concerns about component manufacturers
including compliance margins in GEM inputs--in other words, inputting a
value that is significantly worse than the tested result. They state
that many component suppliers are providing GEM inputs with compliance
margins, rather than raw test results. However, when stacked together,
the compliance margins would result in inappropriately high GEM results
that would not represent the vehicles being produced.
In addressing this concern, it is important to distinguish between
engine fuel maps (which are certified separately) and other GEM inputs
that are not certified. As is discussed in Section I.B.2, certified
engine fuel maps are expected to include compliance margins (albeit
small margins). However, EPA did not expect each GEM input to have a
significant compliance margin of its own. (Note that the aerodynamic
bin structure serves to provide an inherent compliance margin for most
vehicles.) Rather, we expected the certifying OEM to include compliance
margins in their Family Emission Limits (FELs) relative to the GEM
outputs.
For vehicle GHG standards, the primary role for FEL compliance
margins is to protect against Selective Enforcement Audit (SEA)
failures. Without a compliance margin under the Phase 2 regulations,
normal production variability would cause some vehicles to fail, which
would require the testing of additional vehicles. Even if the family
ultimately passed the SEA, it would probably require the manufacturer
to test a large number of vehicles. However, because SEAs for
particular components would not target GEM inputs for other components,
a modest compliance margin for the FEL would be sufficient to cover the
full range of components.
While we are not proposing explicit changes with respect to
compliance margins, we are proposing to revise the procedures for
conducting an SEA for an axle or transmission apart from a specific
vehicle. These revisions would further obviate a need for component-
specific compliance margins.
Although we do not believe that suppliers should normally include
compliance margins when providing test data to OEMs for GEM inputs, we
do believe they should provide to OEMs some characterization of the
statistical confidence they have in their data. This would allow the
OEM to apply an appropriate overall compliance margin for their FEL.
Finally, none of this is intended to discourage suppliers and OEMs
from entering into commercial agreements related to the accuracy of
test results or SEA performance.
7. SEAs for Axles and Transmissions
Under 40 CFR 1037.320, a selective enforcement audit (SEA) for
axles or transmissions would consist of performing measurements with a
production axle or transmission to determine mean power loss values as
[[Page 28150]]
declared for GEM simulations, and running GEM over one or more
applicable duty cycles based on those measured values. The axle or
transmission is considered passing for a given configuration if the new
modeled emission result for every applicable duty cycle is at or below
the modeled emission result corresponding to the declared GEM inputs.
As described below, EPA is proposing to revise the consequences where
an axle or transmission does not pass.
We believe special provisions are needed for axles and
transmissions given their importance as compliance technologies and a
market structure in which a single axle or transmission could be used
by multiple certifying OEMs. Under the existing SEA regulations, if an
axle or transmission family from an independent supplier fails an SEA,
vehicle production could be disrupted for multiple OEMs and have
serious economic impacts on them. We are proposing new regulatory text
that would minimize the disruption to vehicle production.
Under the proposal, if the initial axle or transmission passes,
then the family would pass, and no further testing would be required.
This is the same as under the existing regulations. However, if the
initial axle or transmission does not pass, two additional production
axles or transmissions, as applicable, would need to be tested. Upon
completion of the third test, the results of the three tests would be
combined into a single map. This would become the official test result
for the family. In other words, this proposed approach would correct
the data used by the OEM for their end-of-year report.
We request comment on whether there are other components for which
this approach would be appropriate.
8. Weight Reduction
The regulations in 40 CFR 1037.520 include tables to calculate
weight reduction values for using certain lightweight components. The
sum of the weight reductions is used as an input to GEM. EPA is
proposing two changes to Table 8 of that section. First, we are
proposing to allow manufacturers to use the heavy heavy-duty (HHD)
values for medium heavy-duty (MHD) vehicles with three axles (i.e., 6x4
and 6x2 configurations). These MHD vehicles typically share chassis
components with HHD vehicles, but are classified as MHD because of the
lighter duty engines. Second, we are proposing to add a footnote to the
table to clarify that the weight reduction values apply per vehicle
(instead of per component) unless otherwise noted.
9. Electric and Hybrid Vehicles in Vocational Applications
Manufacturers have expressed concern that the Phase 2 regulations
are not specific enough regarding how to classify hybrid vocational
vehicles (see 40 CFR 1037.140). This is not an issue for tractors,
which are classified based on GVWR. However, vocational vehicles are
generally classified by the class of the engines. Obviously, this
approach does not work for electric vehicle without engines. This
approach could also misrepresent a hybrid vehicle that is able to use
an undersized engine. To address these problems, we are proposing to
revise 40 CFR 1037.140(g) to clarify that hybrid vehicles are heavy
heavy-duty vehicles if they are either propelled by a heavy heavy-duty
engine and all other hybrid and electric vehicles are classified by
GVWR class. We request comment on alternative approaches, such as
specifying the useful life in hours rather than miles for these
vocational vehicles, or allowing electric vehicles to step down one
weight class, with justification from the manufacturer.
10. Vocational Vehicle Segmentation
The Phase 2 regulatory structure applies the primary vocational
standards by subcategory based on drive cycles. The three subcategories
are Regional, Multi-purpose, and Urban. Manufacturers are generally
allowed to certify vocational vehicles in the particular duty-cycle
subcategory they believe to be most appropriate, consistent with good
engineering judgment. This process for selecting the correct
subcategory is often called ``segmentation.'' Under this structure, EPA
expects manufacturers to choose a subcategory for each vehicle
configuration that best represents the type of operation that vehicle
will actually experience in use. This is important because several
technologies provide very different emission reductions depending on
the actual in-use drive cycle. For example, stop-start would provide
the biggest emission reductions for urban vehicles and much less
reduction for vehicles that operate primary on long intercity drives.
Manufacturers have raised concerns about the impact of this
structure on their ability to plan for and monitor compliance. They
have suggested that more objective and quantitative good engineering
judgment criteria would be helpful. In response to these concerns, EPA
is proposing an interim ``safe harbor'' provision for vocational
vehicle segmentation. Manufacturers meeting the safe harbor criteria
described below would be presumed to have applied good engineering
judgment.
The first principle of this safe harbor would be that any vehicle
could be classified as Multi-purpose. The Multi-purpose duty cycle
weighting factors include significant weightings for highway operation,
lower speed transient operation, and idle. Thus, it would not generally
overvalue an individual technology.
The second principle of this safe harbor would be that vehicles not
classified as Multi-purpose should not be exclusively Regional or
Urban. We are proposing a quantitative measure that evaluates the ratio
of Regional vehicles to Urban vehicles within an averaging set.
Specifically, ratio of Regional vehicles to Urban vehicles must be
between 1:5 and 5:1. An equivalent way of saying this is that the
number of Regional vehicles divided by the number of Urban vehicles
would need to be between 0.20 and 5.0.
We believe this safe harbor would be consistent with the intent of
the Phase2 program and would not allow manufacturers to reduce the
effective stringency the standards. Nevertheless, EPA requests comment
on this approach overall and the range of acceptable ratios. We also
request comment on how to handle specialty manufacturers that have a
less diverse product offerings. Finally, we request comment on the need
for the subcategory on the label and whether or not we should allow
manufacturers to reassign subcategories for their end-of-year ABT
reports.
11. Early Certification for Small Manufacturers
Vehicle manufacturers that qualify as small businesses are exempt
from the Phase 1 standards, but must meet the Phase 2 standards
beginning in 2022. However, some vehicle families have been certified
voluntarily to Phase 1 standards by small manufacturers. In an effort
to encourage more voluntary early certification to Phase 1 standards,
we are proposing to adopt a new interim provision in Sec.
1037.150(y)(4) for small manufacturers that certify their entire U.S.-
directed production volume to the Phase 1 standards for calendar year
2021. If the small manufacturers do so, the proposed provision would
then allow these manufacturers to certify to the Phase 1 standards for
model year 2022 (instead of the otherwise applicable Phase 2
standards). Early compliance with the Phase 1 standards should more
than offset any reduction in benefits for model year 2022 (although the
magnitude of any impact on air quality would be small because
[[Page 28151]]
of the small production volumes that would be involved).
The proposed provision would also allow the Phase 1 vehicle credits
that small manufacturers generate from model year 2018 through 2022
vocational vehicles to be used through model year 2027. Under the
existing regulations, all manufacturers that generate credits under the
Phase 1 program are allowed to use such Phase 1 vehicle credits in the
Phase 2 vehicle averaging, banking, and trading program, but the
credits are subject to the five-year credit life. The limit on credit
life can be problematic for small manufacturers with limited product
lines which allow them less flexibility in averaging. We believe the
longer credit life would provide them the flexibility they would need
to ensure all of their products are fully compliant by the time the
Phase 2 standards are fully phased in for model year 2027.
We request comment on these proposed changes and any potential
impact.
12. Other Minor Heavy-Duty Vehicle Amendments
EPA is proposing four additional amendments to part 1037:
Self-contained air conditioning units. We are proposing to
revise Sec. 1037.115(e) to clarify that it is intended to address air
conditioning systems for which the primary purpose is to cool the
driver compartment. This would generally include all complete pickups
and vans, but not self-contained air conditioning or refrigeration
units on vocational vehicles.
Warranty. We are proposing to revise Sec. 1037.120(b) to
correct the text with respect to tires and Heavy Heavy-Duty vehicles.
Drayage tractors. We are proposing to revise Sec.
1037.140(aa) to clarify the production limit for drayage tractors under
the custom chassis allowance.
Neutral idle. We are proposing to revise Sec.
1037.660(a)(2) to specify the permissible delay before engaging neutral
idle when the vehicle is stopped.
D. Requests for Comment on Phase 2 Regulations
EPA is soliciting comments on other potential amendments, including
those described in this Section II.D. We also welcome comments on the
need for other technical corrections and clarifications. Readers are
reminded to review public comments placed in the docket, which may
contain requests for other corrections and clarifications.
1. Vocational Engines and Credits
In 40 CFR 1036.150(p), EPA provides special flexibility for engine
manufacturers that certify all their model year 2020 engines within an
averaging set to the model year 2021 FTP and SET standards and
requirements. GHG emission credits those manufacturers generate with
model year 2018 through 2024 engines may be used through model year
2030, instead of being limited to a five-year credit life as specified
in Sec. 1036.740(d). They will also be allowed to certify model year
2024 through 2026 tractor engines to alternative standards that are
slightly higher than the otherwise applicable standards.
The choice would be made when certifying MY 2020 engines. Instead
of certifying engines to the final year of the Phase 1 engine
standards, manufacturers electing the alternative would indicate that
they are instead certifying to the MY 2021 Phase 2 engine standard.
Because these engine manufacturers would be reducing emissions of
engines otherwise subject to the MY 2020 Phase 1 engine standards (and
because engine reductions were not reflected in the Phase 1 vehicle
program), there would be a net benefit to the environment. These
engines would not generate credits relative to the Phase 1 standards
(that is, MY 2020 engines would only use or generate credits relative
to the pulled ahead MY 2021 Phase 2 engines standards). Because the
vehicle standards themselves are unaffected, these voluntary standards
would not reduce the GHG reductions or fuel savings of the program.
Vehicle manufacturers using the alternative MYs 2024-2026 engines would
need to adopt additional vehicle technology (i.e., technology beyond
that projected to be needed to meet the engine standard) to meet the
applicable vehicle GHG standards. This means the vehicles would still
achieve the same fuel efficiency in use.
EPA did not adopt a similar provision for alternative MY 2024-2026
standards for vocational engines due to concerns about windfall
credits. However, given our proposed amendment to address these
windfall credits (Section I.B.1), we are asking for comment on the
possibility of a similar set of alternative standards for vocational
engines, as shown in the following table:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Model years Medium heavy-duty vocational Heavy heavy-duty vocational
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2020-2023............................... 545 g/hp-hr........................................... 513 g/hp-hr.
2024-2026............................... 542 g/hp-hr........................................... 510 g/hp-hr.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
As noted in the Phase 2 FRM, EPA views this type of alternative as
being positive from the environmental and energy conservation
perspectives, while providing significant flexibility for manufacturers
that may reduce their compliance costs. (81 FR 73499, October 25, 2016)
2. Stop-Start Overrides
Stop-start systems are an important technology to reduce
unnecessary idling, such as when a vehicle is stopped at a traffic
light. In 40 CFR 1037.660, we specify how these systems must operate in
order to qualify for GEM credit. Included among those provisions are
allowances for overriding the automatic engine shutdown where it would
otherwise create a potential system damage or safety issue for the
engine or driver. Manufacturers have asked us to include additional
overrides needed to ensure safe and effective vehicle operation.
Specifically, they have asked us to consider overrides for the
following conditions, which we are requesting comment on:
Driveline engaged (to prevent driveline and/or starter damage)
Automatic transmission not in D (to reduce engine and
transmission loading)
Automatic transmission in P or N (to prevent depleting the
battery)
Turn signal activated (to prevent engine stop with the vehicle
in intersection)
Hazard warning signal activated (to prevent engine stop during
limp-home mode)
SCR thawing (to allow thawing of frozen DEF)
High steering angle (to avoid steering wheel kickback during
engine start)
ABS wheel speed sensor failure (to ensure detection of vehicle
speed)
Hard braking event (to avoid startling the driver after an
event)
Road grade greater than 7% (to prevent vehicle rollback)
[[Page 28152]]
3. Delegated Assembly
In 40 CFR 1037.621, EPA specifies provisions to allow manufacturers
to ship incomplete vehicles and delegate the final assembly to another
entity. Manufacturers have expressed the concern that these ``delegated
assembly'' requirements are too burdensome in some cases, particularly
in cases such as auxiliary power units and natural gas fuel tanks. EPA
requests comment on this issue.
4. Certification Reporting Requirements
EPA requests comment on whether and how to revise the text to
simplify or clarify the provisions in 40 CFR 1037.205 that require the
inclusion of GEM results and credit projections in applications for
certification.
5. Mild Hybrid Certification
Under the Phase 2 regulations, manufacturers must conduct
powertrain testing if they wish to take credit for hybrid systems,
including mild hybrid systems. However, manufacturers have expressed
concerns about the cost of powertrain testing and that the existing
procedure may not measure improvements from certain mild hybrid
systems. EPA requests comment on alternative means of evaluating mild
hybrids. Manufacturers have asked EPA to consider the following
options:
Allow manufacturers to test a powertrain and apply
analytically-derived scaling factors to others (e.g., scale by fraction
of battery capacity or motor capacity) under 40 CFR 1037.235(h).
Allow manufacturers to use international test procedures
for battery capacity, motor power, and motor efficiency.
Provide smaller credit (potentially with a volume limit
and/or only for limited time) in exchange for less testing (e.g.,
reduced benefit when using the simplified model spreadsheet that is
available under docket no. EPA-HQ-OAR-2014-0827-2109).
6. Transmission Calibrations
Manufacturers with advanced transmission calibrations may use the
powertrain test option in Sec. 1037.550 to demonstrate the performance
of their transmissions. We adopted this option to provide an incentive
for the development of advanced transmissions with sophisticated
calibrations.
Transmission manufacturers have developed some new efficient
calibrations, but must also maintain less efficient calibrations to
address special types of operation. Due to concerns about resale value,
most customers want to retain the ability to select the correct
calibration for their operation. For transmissions with such selectable
calibrations, Sec. 1037.235(a) requires that they test using the
worst-case calibration, which can undermine the incentive to continue
improving the calibrations. Therefore, we are requesting comment on
allowing manufacturers to measure both the best- and worst-case
calibrations and weight them based on survey data, or other appropriate
means. Commenters are encouraged to address whether such an allowance
would change the effective stringency of the standards.
7. Data Requirements for Hydrogen-Fueled Vehicles
We request comment on whether special provisions are needed for
hydrogen-fueled vehicles. Currently GEM simulation is required for
these vehicles, although by using a non-carbon fuel, simulating the
vehicle with GEM would result in zero CO2 emissions. We
request comment on whether or not to change our current approach.
E. Other Heavy-Duty Highway Amendments
This proposed rule includes other amendments related to heavy-duty
highway engines. For example, we are updating the regulations for
certification fees as described in Section III.C. We are also proposing
or soliciting comment on additional amendments as described in the
following sections.
1. Onboard Diagnostics (OBD)
EPA's OBD regulations for heavy-duty engines are contained in 40
CFR 86.010-18, which was promulgated February 24, 2009 (74 FR 8310).
Although these regulations were originally harmonized with CARB's OBD
program, CARB has made changes to their regulations which EPA has not
adopted. In several cases, CARB has added flexibility to its
regulations. We are requesting comment generally on the differences
between EPA and CARB regulations, in addition to the specific issues
identified below.
More recently CARB has proposed additional revisions and is
expected to finalize them this year.\11\ We also request comment on
these more recent CARB changes.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\11\ Information is available at https://ww2.arb.ca.gov/rulemaking/2018/heavy-duty-board-diagnostic-system-requirements-2018.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
We request comment on the new definitions proposed by CARB at 13
CCR 1971.1(c), including the definitions for ``alternate phase-in'',
``diagnostic or emission critical electronic control unit'', and
``smart device''.
EPA is requesting comment on California's approach to approving
deficiencies during a model year. In Sec. 1971.1(k)(6.1.1) of their
regulations, CARB states:
The manufacturer may request a retroactive deficiency until
either of the following dates, whichever is later:
(A) When the last affected engine or vehicle is produced, or on
December 31 of the calendar year for which the model year is named,
whichever is sooner; or
(B) 6 months after commencement of the start of engine
production or vehicle production, whichever is later.
Our current regulations do not allow for retroactive deficiencies.
EPA is requesting comment on whether to adopt CARB's approach.
We are proposing to adopt the CARB 5% threshold for misfire in
Sec. 86.010-18(g)(2), and to adopt the additional flexibility provided
by CARB for misfires in 13 CCR 1971.1(e)(2.3.3). This would allow
manufacturers to not detect misfires under certain conditions, such as
during aftertreatment regeneration and some low temperature operation.
We are proposing to revise our in-use compliance standards in Sec.
86.010-18(p) to reflect the CARB approach for minimum ratios for
representative samples. Under the proposed text, an OBD system would
not be considered noncompliant unless a representative sample indicates
the in-use ratio is below 0.088.
CARB has developed reporting templates for its OBD requirements.
EPA is proposing to allow manufacturers to use these templates for
reporting to EPA, and we are requesting comment on whether regulatory
changes are needed. See CARB Mail-Out #MSC 09-22 as amended on 18-Apr-
2019.
Our OBD regulations rely on several standard procedures developed
by SAE International, as specified in Sec. 86.010-18(k). The
regulations also reference a standard of the International Organization
for Standardization (ISO). We request comment on the need to update
these procedures to more recent versions as summarized below.

------------------------------------------------------------------------
[[Page 28153]]
In Sec. 86.010-18(l), EPA specifies testing requirements for
demonstrating the performance of monitoring systems. The amount of
testing required depends on the number of engine families a
manufacturer certifies in a given model year. CARB regulations include
equivalent requirements, and our intent is to allow the use of test
data generated for CARB. We are proposing to revise our regulations to
state that CARB-certified configurations do not count as separate
engine families for the purposes of this provision.
EPA is proposing to revise Sec. 86.010-18(a) and (m) to allow a
simplified carryover OBD certification path intended for special engine
families, such as those certified for export to Canada. This proposed
provision is similar to the allowance to show compliance with Sec.
86.010-18 based on CARB certification. To make use of either
alternative, the manufacturer must demonstrate to the Administrator how
the OBD system they intend to certify meets the intent behind all the
requirements of Sec. 86.010-18.
These amendments address heavy-duty engines used in vehicles with
GVWR above 14,000 pounds. We request comment on the need for similar
changes for engine-certified heavy-duty engine families subject to 40
CFR 86.007-17 and 86.1806-17.
2. Smoke Standards and Smoke Measurement Procedures
Diesel heavy-duty highway engines have been subject to smoke
standards in addition to brake-specific emission standards for many
years. The current exhaust emission standards for particulate matter
(PM) cause manufacturers to apply calibrations and emission control
strategies that reduce PM from the exhaust to very low levels. There is
some relationship between brake-specific PM emissions and smoke, but
they are not inherently linked. Nevertheless, modern engines with very
low PM emissions have very low smoke levels when properly maintained.
Thus, we do not believe smoke standards achieve any emission reductions
beyond those that result from DPF-forcing PM standards.
Manufacturers submit smoke data with certification, but smoke
testing is not required for selective enforcement audits with
production engines. Some state programs continue to rely on smoke
measurement to screen for high-emitting trucks. However, these state
testing programs are separate from EPA certification, so we do not
expect the state programs to depend on EPA certification for smoke
standards. We therefore request comment on removing the smoke standard
as a certification requirement for heavy-duty highway engines. We
particularly request comment on the EPA smoke standard and its
relationship to state testing programs.
There are also questions about the smoke test procedures. The smoke
test procedures are specified in 40 CFR part 86, subpart I. These
procedures were first adopted almost 50 years ago and have remained
largely unchanged since that time. They currently apply for locomotives
(40 CFR part 1033) and some land-based nonroad diesel engines (40 CFR
part 1039). To the extent these procedures continue to apply, we may
undertake a future rulemaking to update these procedures and include
them in 40 CFR part 1065 along with the other test procedures for
measuring exhaust emissions from test engines. We request comment on
appropriate changes to ensure that these measurement procedures reflect
currently available instruments and practices, without causing the
measured values to redefine the stringency of existing standards.
3. Migration From 40 CFR Part 86, Subpart A
EPA created 40 CFR part 86 in 1976 to reorganize emission standards
and certification requirements for light-duty and heavy-duty highway
vehicles and engines. In 1985, EPA adopted new standards for heavy-duty
highway engines, codifying the standards in 40 CFR part 86, subpart A,
along with the standards and certification procedures for light-duty
vehicles and light-duty trucks.\12\ Since then, EPA has adopted several
rules to set new and more stringent standards for both light-duty and
heavy-duty emission control programs and to add or revise certification
procedures. However, the original regulatory structure was not well-
suited to handle the number of revisions that occurred over time.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\12\ Emission standards for heavy-duty highway engines were
first adopted by the Department of Health, Education, and Welfare in
the 1960s. These standards and the corresponding certification and
testing procedures were codified at 45 CFR part 1201. In 1972,
shortly after EPA was created as a federal agency, EPA published new
standards and updated procedures while migrating the regulations to
40 CFR part 85 as part of the effort to consolidate all EPA
regulations in a single location.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
To improve clarity for regulated parties, EPA has been planning to
migrate the highway heavy-duty engine standards and certification
requirements to 40 CFR part 1036.\13\ We expect to propose that
migration in a separate rulemaking. The general approach will be to
keep the essential regulatory elements in 40 CFR part 86, subpart A,
but to streamline and update the regulatory provisions to align with
best practices and other current provisions that apply for nonroad
engines (such as 40 CFR parts 1033, 1039, and 1042). We believe this
technical amendment rulemaking is a good opportunity to solicit input
on principles and opportunities for eventually adopting those updated
regulations in 40 CFR part 1036.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\13\ 40 CFR part 1036 was created in 2011 as part of the Phase 1
GHG rulemaking (76 FR 57381, September 15, 2011).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
The migration of regulatory provisions to 40 CFR part 1036 is
planned for a future rulemaking because it necessitates a thorough
investigation of the provisions that currently apply to heavy-duty
engines under 40 CFR part 86. A memo in the docket for this proposal
describes a range of possible regulatory amendments we could eventually
adopt to reorganize the provisions within 40 CFR part 86, subpart A,
eliminate obsolete content, and improve the readability of the
remaining provisions.\14\ We request comment on those regulatory
changes, and on the value of making these changes in this rulemaking,
considering that these changes will apply only for the limited time
that 40 CFR part 86, subpart A, continues to apply.

III. Other Amendments
A. Ethanol-Blend Test Fuels for Nonroad Spark-Ignition Engines and
Vehicles, Highway Motorcycles, and Portable Fuel Containers
EPA adopted exhaust and evaporative emission standards for
gasoline-fueled nonroad engines, vehicles, and equipment before there
was a federal gasoline test fuel with 10 percent ethanol (E10). Most of
those programs therefore relied on testing with neat gasoline (E0) or
with a splash-blended mix of neat gasoline and ethanol to make E10. In
the meantime, EPA adopted a federal gasoline test fuel with 10 percent
ethanol for testing motor vehicles (79 FR 23414, April 28, 2014).
California ARB adopted its own specification for an E10 test fuel
for testing motor vehicles, referred to as ``LEV III E10.'' California
ARB revised its nonroad emission control programs to require
manufacturers to start using LEV III E10 test fuel for certification
starting in model year 2020, without allowing for carryover of previous
data from testing with neat gasoline. California ARB's move to require
use of LEV III E10 test fuel for certification has
[[Page 28154]]
led manufacturers to express a concern about the test burden associated
with separate testing to demonstrate compliance with EPA and California
ARB emission standards.
The concern for aligning test requirements related to test fuel
applies for marine spark-ignition engines (40 CFR part 1045), nonroad
spark-ignition engines above 19 kW (40 CFR part 1048), and recreational
vehicles (40 CFR part 1051).\15\ We expect a similar situation to apply
for highway motorcycles in the 2022-2025 time frame based on California
ARB's plans for further rulemaking activity. In addition, we believe it
is best to update evaporative emission test procedures for equipment
using nonroad spark-ignition engines (40 CFR part 1060) to allow for
using EPA' specified E10 test fuel instead of relying on splash-
blending ethanol with EPA's specified E0 gasoline test fuel (known as
indolene).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\15\ EPA adopted amendments to address these concerns for
nonroad spark-ignition engines at or below 19 kW in an earlier
rulemaking (80 FR 9114, February 19, 2015).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
We have issued guidance for marine spark-ignition engines (40 CFR
part 1045) \16\ and for recreational vehicles (40 CFR part 1051) \17\
describing how we may approve certification based on emission
measurements with an E10 test fuel. We are proposing to revise 40 CFR
parts 1045, 1048, and 1051, consistent with the recently issued
guidance documents, to allow for certification based on emission
measurements with EPA's E10 test fuel without requiring EPA approval,
and without adjusting emission standards to account for fuel effects.
For marine spark-ignition engines (40 CFR part 1045), this merely
replaces the existing provision allowing for the alternative of using a
splash-blended E10 test fuel. For recreational vehicles (40 CFR part
1051) and Large SI engines (40 CFR part 1048), naming EPA's E10
specification as the alternative test fuel is a new provision. As
originally adopted for Marine SI engines, EPA would always be able to
do confirmatory testing with either the original E0 test fuel, or the
manufacturer's selected alternative fuel.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

California ARB E10 Test Fuel,'' EPA guidance document CD-18-15,
December 24, 2018.
\17\ ``Off-Highway Recreational Vehicle Certification Testing
with California ARB E10 Test Fuel,'' EPA guidance document CD-19-03,
April 22, 2019.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
We are also proposing to allow the same approach for certification
based on emission measurements with EPA's E10 test fuel for highway
motorcycles (including EPA confirmatory testing with either E0 or E10).
Manufacturers may want to test with California ARB's LEV III E10
test fuel instead of EPA's E10 test fuel. The two sets of fuel
specifications are nearly identical, except that the EPA E10 test fuel
has a higher volatility. For testing hot-stabilized engines, volatility
has a very small effect on exhaust emissions. As a result, we would
expect to approve a manufacturer's request to use LEV III E10 test fuel
instead of EPA's E10 test fuel under 40 CFR 1065.701(b). This provision
allows EPA to approve a different test fuel if it does not affect a
manufacturer's ability to show that its engines will comply with all
applicable emission standards using the fuel specificed in the subpart.
This would apply if fuel's effect on emissions is small enough to allow
for using the test results to show that engines would meet applicable
emission standards with the specified fuel. Since there are no
appreciable fuel effects on exhaust emissions between EPA's E10 test
fuel and LEV III E10 test fuel, we would expect this approval process
to be straightforward.
We expect this approach of allowing E10 as an alternative test fuel
to adequately address concerns for the identified sectors. Many of
these engines have closed-loop fuel controls that reduce the effect of
fuel variables on exhaust emissions. Many also have relatively large
compliance margins relative to the standards that apply. These factors
help manufacturers confidently test with E10 as an alternative fuel,
knowing that they continue to be liable for meeting emission standards
on the specified E0 test fuel.
EPA has an interest in transitioning all emission measurements for
gasoline-fueled engines to an E10 test fuel. However, modifying the
emission control program by allowing (or requiring) a complete
compliance demonstration based on an E10 test fuel would require a more
careful assessment of the fuel effects from the ethanol added to the
test fuel. Since the ethanol in some cases has significant effects on
HC, NOX, and CO emissions, we would need to evaluate the
resulting effects on the stringency of the standards. We would
generally expect to adopt adjusted standards with the objective of
maintaining equivalent stringency. Developing such alternative
standards for an E10 test fuel would require a large body of data to
adequately capture the fuel effects on emissions for all the different
classes of highway motorcycles, for all the different types of nonroad
engines and vehicles, and for different kinds of engine technology
within the various sectors. We took this approach for nonroad spark-
ignition engines below 19 kW by adopting alternative CO standards that
apply for testing with LEV III E10 test fuel (78 FR 36397, June 17,
2013).
Toward that end, we have prepared a memorandum with a collection of
available emission data from nonroad engines and highway motorcycles
tested with E0 and E10 test fuels.\18\ The data include results from
programs conducted by industry associations, EPA efforts with Canadian
labs, and other U.S. laboratory data. We solicit additional emission
data to further help establish the comparison between the test fuels
for different engine types, applications, and technologies. We also
request comment on the benefits or concerns with adopting alternative
standards that correspond with a change to require E10 test fuel for
all testing (both for manufacturers and EPA). Available information
suggests that the fuel-related emission effects for technologies across
these sectors are much more complex and varied than we observed for
Small SI engines. Some technology differences, such as two-stroke vs.
four-stroke and naturally aspirated vs. turbocharged, have relatively
consistent and predictable fuel-related emission effects. However, some
technologies will have fuel-related emission effects that depend on
specific design strategies. For example, manufacturers can use
electronic controls to optimize for power, fuel economy, low-speed
torque, or some other measure of performance. Partial use of closed-
loop control of air-fuel ratios is one clear example of this, with the
potential to adjust the air-fuel ratio to different setpoints, or to
limit closed-loop control only to certain operating conditions. We
request comment on how best to account for these design-specific engine
technologies in evaluating fuel-related emission effects for each type
of engine.

from Cheryl Caffrey to Docket EPA-HQ-OAR-2016-0604, December 6,
2019.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
The emission effects are most pronounced for CO emissions, but we
are also interested in HC and NOX emissions. To the extent
that NOX emissions (or HC + NOX emissions)
increase to a degree that affects the stringency of the standards, we
would consider increasing the numerical level of the standard to
maintain equivalent stringency.
EPA also specifies test fuels for evaporative emission testing. The
gasoline test fuel for measuring
[[Page 28155]]
permeation emissions from nonroad fuel tanks and fuel lines is a
splash-blended E10. The is an E0 test fuel that is blended to reach a
10 percent concentration of ethanol. The splash-blended E10 test fuel
is nearly identical to EPA's specified E10 test fuel except for the
volatility. EPA's Tier 3 E10 test fuel has a nominal volatility of 9
psi RVP and the splash-blended E10 has a volatility of about 10 psi
RVP.\19\ We request comment on amending the regulation to allow testing
with the pre-mixed E10 test fuel with 9 psi RVP instead of the splash-
blended E10 test fuel with 10 psi. In particular, we encourage
commenters to share any available data describing how gasoline
volatility affects permeation rates. We would not want manufacturers to
test with lower fuel volatility if it decreases permeation rates and
allows manufacturers to use a less effective control technology. We
also request comment on the level of interest that manufacturers or
testing organizations would have to be able to use EPA's pre-mixed E10
test fuel in the near term, or at any point in the future. We are
concerned about issues related to test burden for manufacturers needing
to meet standards, but we invite commenters to share their insights on
these questions of permeation chemistry. If the final rule includes an
amendment to allow permeation testing with EPA's pre-mixed E10 test
fuel, we would also expect to specify that California ARB's LEVIII E10
test fuel is also acceptable for demonstrating compliance with
permeation standards (see Sec. 1060.505(c)(2)).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\19\ Fuel volatility is based on Reid Vapor Pressure (RVP),
which generally quantifies a fuel's equilibrium vapor pressure at
100 [deg]F. A fuel with volatility of 9 psi would therefore have an
equilibrium vapor pressure of about 9 psi at 100 [deg]F.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
A different dynamic applies for diurnal testing. This measurement
procedure applies for Marine SI fuel tanks and for some Large SI
equipment. We currently specify an E0 test fuel with a nominal
volatility of 9 psi RVP for diurnal testing in 40 CFR 1060.525. The
volume of vapor venting during a diurnal test depends on the volatility
of the test fuel. Changing the ethanol content of the fuel without
changing the volatility should cause no significant change in the
volume of vapor venting during the diurnal test. The specified EPA E10
test fuel has the same volatility as the E0 test fuel, but it has the
added ethanol. We request comment on amending the regulation to allow
testing with the specified EPA E10 test fuel instead of the E0 test
fuel. As described for permeation testing above, we would not want
manufacturers to use a test fuel that would decrease vapor pressures
and allow manufacturers to use a less effective control technology. We
also request comment on the level of interest that manufacturers or
testing organizations would have to be able to use EPA's specified E10
test fuel in the near term, or at any point in the future.
We specify emission standards and test procedures for portable fuel
containers in 40 CFR part 59, subpart F. The test relies on a splash-
blended E10 test fuel. California ARB specifies their LEV III gasoline
test fuel for the analogous procedures in California, but they allow
manufacturers to submit data instead using EPA's specified test fuel.
Accordingly, we believe manufacturers do not face the same burden of
needing to perform duplicate measurements for the two agencies. We are
therefore not proposing to change the EPA test fuel for portable fuel
containers. However, we request comment on allowing manufacturers the
option of using EPA's specified E10 test fuel to demonstrate compliance
with the combined test for diurnal and permeation emissions.
B. Removing Obsolete CFR Content
EPA first adopted emission standards for light-duty motor vehicles
and heavy-duty highway engines in the 1970s. Emission standards for the
first categories of nonroad engines started to apply in the 1990s. Each
of these programs include emission standards that apply by model year.
For most of these programs over time, engines and vehicles were subject
to increasingly stringent standards and improved certification and
testing requirements. All these standards and regulatory provisions are
codified in the Code of Federal Regulations. As time passes, the
regulations for past model years become obsolete, but it remains in
print until there is a rulemaking change to remove it from print. We
are proposing in this rule to remove large portions of this regulatory
content that no longer applies. The following sections describe these
changes for different sectors.
Note that Section III.D describes several amendments to emission
control programs for motor vehicles in 40 CFR parts 85 and 86. These
amendments include several provisions that also remove obsolete
regulatory content.
1. Clean Fuel Fleet Standards (40 CFR Part 88)
The Clean Air Act Amendments of 1990 included numerical standards
for the Clean Fuel Fleet program that were intended to encourage
innovation and reduce emissions for fleets of motor vehicles in certain
nonattainment areas as compared to conventionally fueled vehicles
available at the time. As originally adopted, those Clean Fuel Fleet
standards were substantially more stringent than the standards that
applied to vehicles and engines generally.
Now that we have begun implementing Tier 3 standards in 40 CFR part
86, subpart S, the Clean Fuel Fleet standards are either less stringent
than or equivalent to the standards that apply to vehicles and engines
generally. Because the statute continues to require Clean Fuel Fleet
standards for state clean-fuel vehicle programs, we cannot simply
remove the Clean Fuel Fleet program from the regulations. Rather, we
are proposing to implement the Clean Fuel Fleet standards in 40 CFR
part 88 with a compliance option where vehicles and engines certified
to current standards under 40 CFR part 86 and part 1036 would be deemed
to comply with the Clean Fuel Fleet standards as Ultra Low-Emission
Vehicles. Further, the Clean Fuel Fleet program as adopted included
labeling requirements for engine and vehicle manufacturers to identify
compliant engines and vehicles, and a restriction against including
such engines or vehicles when calculating emission credits. Both
provisions would also no longer be applicable because of the earlier
mentioned increased stringency of standards for engines and vehicles,
and under the compliance option we are proposing. Therefore, we are
also proposing to remove these regulations. This will give clear
instructions to vehicle and engine manufacturers as well as states that
continue to have Clean Fuel Fleet provisions in their State
Implementation Plans or become subject to these requirements in the
future under CAA sections 182(c)(4)(A) and 246(a).
For states with areas that become subject to the clean-fuel vehicle
program requirements in the future based on a new designation as an
ozone nonattainment area, the required state implementation plan
submission for the program or for a substitute measure is due within 42
months after the effective date of an area's nonattainment designation.
The clean-fuel vehicle program requirements apply for ozone
nonattainment areas with an initial designation as Serious, Severe, or
Extreme. For marginal and moderate ozone nonattainment areas that are
reclassified as Serious, Severe, or Extreme, the required state
implementation plan submission for the program or for a substitute
measure is due on the date specified in the EPA rulemaking finalizing
the area's reclassification.
[[Page 28156]]
The Clean Fuel Fleet program also depends on vehicle
classifications that include Zero Emission Vehicles and Inherently Low-
Emission Vehicles. We are therefore preserving these defined terms in
40 CFR part 88. We are proposing to consider as Zero Emission Vehicles
all electric vehicles and any vehicle that does not emit
NOX, PM, HC, CO, or formaldehyde (including evaporative
emissions). We are proposing to simplify the definition of Inherently
Low-Emission Vehicles to mean any certified vehicle that is designed to
not vent fuel vapors to the atmosphere.
2. Legacy Nonroad Standards (40 CFR Parts 89 Through 94)
The 1990 amendments to the Clean Air Act authorized EPA to set
emission standards for nonroad engines. This led to a series of
rulemakings to adopt emission control programs for different nonroad
sectors. From 1994 through 1999, EPA adopted these emission control
programs in 40 CFR parts 89, 90, 91, 92, and 94 (all part of Subchapter
C).
Starting in 2002, EPA adopted emission standards for additional
nonroad emission control programs in a new subchapter, which allowed
for improved organization and harmonization across sectors. We codified
these new standards and related provisions in 40 CFR parts 1048, 1051,
1065, and 1068 (all part of Subchapter U). Since then, we have migrated
the ``legacy'' emission control programs from Subchapter C to
Subchapter U. In each case, the migration corresponded to new emission
standards and substantially updated compliance and testing provisions.
This applies for the following sectors:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sector Legacy regulation Current regulation
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Land-based nonroad diesel engines....... 40 CFR part 89............. 40 CFR part 1039.
Nonroad spark-ignition engines at or 40 CFR part 90............. 40 CFR part 1054.
below 19 kW.
Marine spark-ignition engines........... 40 CFR part 91............. 40 CFR part 1045.
Locomotives and locomotive engines...... 40 CFR part 92............. 40 CFR part 1033.
Marine diesel engines................... 40 CFR part 94............. 40 CFR part 1042.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
As a result of this migration, engine manufacturers have not
certified engines under the legacy parts for the last 5-10 years.
Removing these legacy parts reduces the cost to the Agency and prevents
confusion for readers who think that the provisions still apply.
While EPA's engine certification programs don't rely on these
obsolete provisions, the new programs refer to the legacy parts for
some specific provisions. For example, the new standard-setting part
for each type of engine/equipment allows manufacturers to continue to
certify carryover engine families based on test data from procedures
specified in the legacy parts. We are not proposing to discontinue
further use of carryover data from engines originally certified under
the legacy parts. On the other hand, this provision will gradually
sunset itself as manufacturers update engine designs and perform new
testing for their engine families to meet current standards.
Considering California's initiative to disallow carryover for nonroad
spark-ignition engines starting in model year 2021, we request comment
on taking a more direct approach that would sunset carryover based on
testing performed according to the legacy parts.
Another example of relying on the legacy parts in the new
regulations is emission credits generated under the legacy parts. In
most cases, current programs either disallow using those credits for
certification, or they allow it without keeping separate accounts for
credits generated under the legacy parts. We are proposing no changes
where credits from legacy parts are either unavailable or
indistinguishable from currently generated credits. One exception is
for land-based nonroad diesel engines certified under 40 CFR parts 89
and 1039. Current provisions in Sec. 1039.740 allow for limited use of
Tier 2 and Tier 3 credits from part 89 for certifying Tier 4 engines.
However, these constraints are not time-limited. Now that the Tier 4
standards have been in place for several years, we would be interested
in simplifying the credit accounting by sunsetting these provisions. We
therefore request comment on the extent to which any manufacturers
might rely on continued use of Tier 2 or Tier 3 emission credits for
certifying their land-based nonroad diesel Tier 4 engines.
We are also aware that other federal and state regulations and
compliance programs include numerous references to 40 CFR parts 89
through 94. To address this, we are proposing to replace the full text
of regulations in the legacy parts with a paragraph describing the
historical scope and purpose for each part. The remaining paragraph
also directs readers to the new regulations that apply in Subchapter U,
and clarifies how the regulatory requirements transition to the new
content. As an example, the statute and regulations prohibit tampering
with certified engines throughout an engine's lifetime, even if the
original text describing that prohibition no longer resides in its
original location in the Code of Federal Regulations.
We are also proposing to capture the emission standards from the
legacy parts as reference material in an appendix in the appropriate
CFR parts. This allows for readily citing the historical standards in
our own emission control programs, and in any other federal or state
regulations or compliance materials that depend on citing emission
standards that are no longer current for purposes of gaining EPA
certification as part of our nonroad emission control program.
In addition to removing references to the legacy parts, we are
taking the opportunity to remove additional obsolete content from the
newer regulations. Most of these changes were adopted to address
temporary concerns as part of transitioning to new standards or other
new requirements. We adopted these changes in isolated regulatory
sections as ``interim provisions.'' Most of these interim provisions
have been obsolete for several years.\20\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\20\ A docket memo includes redline text to highlight all the
changes to the regulations in the proposed rule. This is especially
helpful for reviewing provisions that we are removing from the CFR.
See ``Redline Document Showing Proposed Changes to Regulatory Text
in the Heavy-Duty Greenhouse Gas Amendments'', EPA memorandum from
Alan Stout to Docket EPA-HQ-OAR-2019-0307. For obsolete provisions
we are removing, see especially 40 CFR 1027.105, 1033.150, 1042.145,
1045.145, 1048.145, 1051.145, 1054.145, and 1054.625.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
References to the legacy parts are especially common for stationary
engines EPA regulates under 40 CFR part 60, subpart IIII and subpart
JJJJ. The emission standards for stationary engines in many cases rely
on current or past nonroad emission standards in 40 CFR parts 89, 90,
and 94. Including all the iterations of these emission standards as
reference material allows us to preserve the existing set of standards
and requirements for
[[Page 28157]]
stationary engines. The proposed regulations include numerous
amendments to 40 CFR part 60 to change regulatory cites from the legacy
parts to the new regulatory parts in Subchapter U.
Most of the changes for stationary engines in 40 CFR part 60 are
intended to update references without changing standards or other
provisions. We are proposing two more substantive changes. First, we
are proposing to allow manufacturers of emergency stationary
compression-ignition internal combustion engines and stationary
emergency spark-ignition engines to certify using assigned
deterioration factors. Since these emergency engines generally serve in
standby status in anticipation of emergency situations, they often have
lifetime operation that is much less extensive than non-emergency
engines. Assigned deterioration factors would allow manufacturers to
demonstrate the durability of emission controls without performing
testing that might otherwise exceed the operating life of the engines
being certified.
Second, stationary spark-ignition engines are currently subject to
emission standards and certification procedures adopted under 40 CFR
part 90 for Phase 1 engines. Revising the requirements for these
engines to instead rely on the certification procedures in 40 CFR part
1054 requires that we identify the Phase 1 standards as not including
the following provisions that apply for Phase 3 engines (as noted in
the proposed regulatory text for Appendix I of part 1054):
The useful life and corresponding deterioration factors.
Evaporative emission standards.
Altitude adjustments.
Warranty assurance provisions in Sec. 1054.120(f).
Emission-related installation instructions.
Bonding.
C. Certification Fees (40 CFR Part 1027)
EPA is making several minor changes in 40 CFR part 1027 to update
the procedures and align the instructions with current practices. None
of these changes involve change or reconsideration of fee policies. We
are proposing the following changes:
Correcting the name of the compliance program.
Replacing the schedule of fees from 2005 with the fees
that apply for applications submitted in 2020.
Revising the timeline for announcing adjusted fees for the
upcoming year from a January 31 deadline to a March 31 deadline. This
will allow for a more orderly process of calculating the new fees using
the information from the previous year.
Correcting the equation for non-evaporative certificates
to no longer apply the inflation adjustment to operating costs. This
corrects a publishing error that mistakenly introduced parentheses in
the equation.
Correcting the internet address for the consumer price
index used for inflation adjustments.
Removing the sample calculation for determining fees for
2006.
Revising submission and payment instructions to refer only
to electronic forms and transactions through www.Pay.gov.
Clarifying that deficient filings must be resolved before
the end of the model year, and that the time limit for requesting
refunds applies equally to deficient filings.
D. Additional Amendments for Motor Vehicles and Motor Vehicle Engines
(40 CFR Parts 85 and 86)
Motor vehicles and motor vehicle engines are subject to emission
standards and certification requirements under 40 CFR part 86. This
applies for light-duty vehicles, light-duty trucks, heavy-duty vehicles
and engines, and highway motorcycles. There are additional compliance
provisions in 40 CFR part 85. We are proposing the following amendments
to these provisions:
Part 85: We are amending the provisions for importation,
exemptions, and model year to clarify that they no longer apply for
heavy-duty engines. Those engines are already subject to analogous
provisions under 40 CFR part 1068. While the two sets of provisions are
largely the same, we want to avoid the ambiguity of having overlapping
requirements. One aspect of this migration involves discontinuing the
provisions that apply for Independent Commercial Importers for heavy-
duty engines. No one has used these provisions for several years, and
we have no reason to believe anyone will start to use these provisions.
Part 85: We are making several minor corrections to (1)
refer to provisions in 40 CFR part 1068 related to confidential
business information and hearing procedures, and (2) clarify
organization names and addresses for submitting information.
Part 85, Subpart O: This subpart set emission standards
for 1993 and older model year urban buses undergoing engine rebuilding.
We have confirmed with the American Public Transportation Association
that there are very few such urban buses still operating, and that none
of them will have engine rebuilds. We are therefore proposing to remove
this content from the CFR.
Sec. 85.1902(b)(2): We are clarifying that defect-
reporting requirements under paragraph (b)(2) apply for defects related
to noncompliance with greenhouse gas emission standards, not criteria
emission standards. This corrects an earlier amendment that
inadvertently described the provisions as applying to noncompliance
with any kind of emission standard. Defects related to criteria
emission standards are covered by Sec. 85.1902(b)(1).
Sec. Sec. 86.113-04, 86.213, and 86.513: Adding optional
reference procedures for measuring aromatic and olefin content of E0
gasoline test fuel. These changes align with the reference procedures
for EPA's Tier 3 E10 gasoline test fuel at 40 CFR 1065.710(b). These
changes are needed because material limitations prevent laboratories
from using the procedures in ASTM D1319. This change also applies for
the E0 gasoline test fuel specified in 40 CFR 1065.710(c),
Sec. 86.129-00: Revising the description of test weight
basis to be loaded vehicle weight for all light-duty vehicles and
light-duty trucks. This is a correction to align the regulation with
current practice.
Sec. 86.130-96: We are correcting the reference to a
testing flowchart that was moved to 40 CFR 1066.801.
Sec. Sec. 86.401-97 and 86.413-78: We are removing
obsolete sections to prevent confusion.
Sec. Sec. 86.419-2006 and 86.427-78: We are revising the
table with service accumulation parameters to clarify how to perform
testing separately for Class I-A and Class I-B, rather than treating
them as a single class.
Sec. Sec. 86.435-78 and 86.436-78: We are correcting
references to the regulation to clarify that a motorcycle is compliant
if measured test results are at or below the standards.
Sec. 86.531-78: We are adding instruction to seal exhaust
system leaks as needed before testing highway motorcycles. The proposed
amendment also applies for testing off-highway motorcycles and all-
terrain vehicles under 40 CFR part 1051. This same instruction also
applies for light-duty vehicle testing under 40 CFR 1066.110(b)(1)(vi).
Part 86, Subpart P: The idle test procedures for spark-
ignition engine and vehicles are no longer needed for certification or
other compliance demonstrations. We are therefore
[[Page 28158]]
proposing to remove this content from the CFR.
Part 86, Subpart Q: Engine technology has advanced to
include internal feedback controls and compensation to allow for
operation at a wide range of altitudes. The certification requirements
related to altitude adjustments are therefore mostly or completely
obsolete. We are proposing a simplified version of the altitude
provisions for highway motorcycles at 40 CFR 86.408-78(c) and (d) in
case there are some very small motorcycles that require adjustment for
altitude. We request comment on the need for these proposed provisions.
Sec. 86.1803: We are revising the definition for heavy-
duty vehicle, with a conforming revision to the definition for light-
duty truck, to clarify that the sole regulatory criterion for whether a
complete vehicle is a heavy-duty vehicle for purposes of the regulation
is whether its gross vehicle weight rating is above 8,500 pounds. The
current approach remains unchanged for incomplete vehicles; that is,
heavy-duty vehicles also include incomplete vehicles even if their
gross vehicle weight rating is at or below 8,500 pounds, if their curb
weight is above 6,000 pounds or if their basic vehicle frontal area is
greater than 45 square feet. The proposed revisions are intended to (1)
prevent light-duty trucks from becoming heavy-duty vehicles in a
configuration involving a hybrid powertrain due to the extra weight
related to energy storage and (2) avoid an incentive for manufacturers
to add vehicle weight or frontal area simply to avoid the standards
that apply for light-duty vehicles. In these cases under the current
definition, the curb weight or frontal area would artificially increase
to the point that the vehicle would qualify as a heavy-duty vehicle,
even though it otherwise has the characteristics of a light-duty truck.
This same change is not necessary for incomplete vehicles because
certifying manufacturers have the option to select the appropriate
vehicle classification for those vehicles. Note that the proposed
change applies only for future certification; any certified heavy-duty
vehicle that would no longer fit the description will not be affected
by the amended definition.
Sec. 86.1810: We are clarifying the certification
responsibilities for cases involving secondary vehicle manufacturers
that modify a certified vehicle and recertify the modified vehicle to
the standards that apply for a new vehicle under 40 CFR part 86,
subpart S. Since the original certifying manufacturer accounts for
these vehicles in their fleet average calculations for criteria exhaust
emissions and evaporative emissions, we believe these secondary vehicle
manufacturers should not be required to repeat those fleet average
calculations for the affected vehicles. This would depend on the
secondary vehicle manufacturer meeting all the same bin standards and
family emission limits as specified by the original certifying
manufacturer.
Sec. 86.1811-17: The Federal Register mistakenly
published a reference to the Tier 3 p.m. standard. Since we intended
for the standard to apply at all times, we are amending the regulation
to properly refer to that as the Tier 3 p.m. standard.
Sec. 86.1813-01: We are clarifying that electric vehicles
and fuel cell vehicles are not subject to evaporative and refueling
emission standards. The preamble to the final rule adopting the light-
duty Tier 3 standards stated that these emission standards apply only
for volatile fuels, but we did not include a clear statement excluding
electric vehicles and fuel cell vehicles in the regulations (79 FR
23514, April 28, 2014).
Sec. 86.1818-12: We are clarifying that manufacturers
calculate the in-use CO2 standard using the appropriate test
result for carbon-related exhaust emissions after adjustment with the
deterioration factor to account for durability effects. In many cases,
the deterioration factor is 0 (additive) or 1 (multiplicative), in
which case the deterioration factor does not change the calculated in-
use CO2 standard.
Sec. 86.1838-01: We are restoring text that was
inadvertently removed in an earlier amendment. The restored text
specifies which mileage provisions from Sec. 86.1845 do not apply for
small-volume manufacturers doing in-use verification testing.
Sec. 86.1868: We are adopting detailed provisions
describing how reduced air conditioning test requirements apply for
electric vehicles and plug-in hybrid electric vehicles. These
provisions are consistent with current practice described in EPA
guidance. We are also proposing to specify that plug-in hybrid electric
vehicles qualify for relief from AC17 testing, like electric vehicles,
if they have an adjusted all electric range of 60 miles or more and
they do not need engine power for cabin cooling during vehicle
operation represented by the AC17 procedure. This is intended to
include vehicles for which an owner can typically expect to avoid using
the engine for daily commuting, including commutes on a hot summer day.
Finally, we are proposing to clarify that manufacturers do not need to
make a demonstration to qualify for air conditioning efficiency credits
for pure electric vehicles or for plug-in hybrid electric vehicles,
provided that those vehicles qualify for waived AC17 testing as
described above. This is due to the complexity of quantifying credit
quantities in grams CO2 per mile for driving without engine
power. We are also proposing to specify that AC17 testing with plug-in
hybrid electric vehicles, if required, always be done in charge-
sustaining mode to avoid the confounding effect of intermittent engine
operation during the test.
Highway motorcycles are currently subject to emission standards
based on emission measurements using the same duty cycle that applies
for cars and trucks. The World Forum for Harmonisation of Vehicle
Regulations (known as WP.29) adopted the World Motorcycle Test Cycle
(WMTC) with the intent of establishing a single, harmonized test cycle
that could be used for meeting emission standards in all countries. All
European countries, along with some additional countries in Asia and
South America, have adopted the WMTC. California ARB may also pursue
regulation to adopt WMTC as part of its emission control program for
highway motorcycles. We request comment on adopting the WMTC as a means
of certifying highway motorcycles to EPA emission standards. We also
request comment on any appropriate adjustment to the exhaust emission
standards that apply for highway motorcycles to ensure equivalent
stringency for testing with the WMTC.
E. Additional Amendments for Locomotives (40 CFR Part 1033)
EPA is updating 40 CFR part 1033 to remove references to specific
content in 40 CFR part 92, as described in Section III.B.2. In
addition, we are proposing the following minor corrections and changes:
Sec. 1033.150: Remove the interim provisions that no
longer apply. This leaves paragraph (e) as the only remaining paragraph
in this section.
Sec. 1033.225: Clarify that amending an application for
certification applies prospectively. In particular, amending an
application does not apply for actions taken previously.
Sec. 1033.255: Clarify that doing anything to make
information false or incomplete after submitting an application for
certification is the same as submitting false or incomplete
information. For example, if there is a change to any corporate
information or engine parameters described in the manufacturer's
application for
[[Page 28159]]
certification, the manufacturer must amend the application to include
the new information.
Sec. 1033.255: Clarify that voiding certificates for a
failure to comply with recordkeeping or reporting requirements will be
limited to the certificates that relate to the particular recordkeeping
or reporting failure.
Sec. 1033.601: Correct references to specific provisions
in 40 CFR part 1068.
Sec. 1033.701: Correct a paragraph reference.
Sec. 1033.740: Remove the reference to emission credits
from part 92. There is no need for this, since the records related to
credit accounting do not identify credits as being from part 92 or part
1033. Any credits generated under part 92 will continue to be available
for certifying locomotives under part 1033.
Sec. 1033.901: Name the date, January 1, 2000, that
marked the start of the original locomotive emission standards, rather
than describing the date with reference to publication of the original
final rule and its effective date (18978 FR 63, April 16, 1998).
Sec. 1033.925: Removing text in paragraph (e) that is
already in paragraph (b) of the same section.
F. Additional Amendments for Land-Based Nonroad Diesel Engines (40 CFR
Part 1039)
EPA's emission standards and certification requirements for land-
based nonroad compression-ignition (CI) engines are identified in 40
CFR part 1039. We refer to these as Nonroad CI engines. Several changes
to 40 CFR part 1039 that apply broadly are described above.
Specifically, Section III.B.2 describes how we are removing regulatory
content related to the Tier 1, Tier 2, and Tier 3 standards originally
adopted in 40 CFR part 89. We are accordingly amending 40 CFR part 1039
to remove references to 40 CFR part 89 that no longer apply.
This section describes additional proposed amendments for EPA's
Nonroad CI program:
Sec. 1039.20: Remove the option to use a branded name
instead of the engine manufacturer's corporate name for uncertified
stationary engines. Since these engines are not certified, there is no
way for EPA to document any relationship between the engine
manufacturer and the branded company. We also are not aware of anyone
using this provision.
Sec. 1039.20: Revise the label statement for stationary
engines covered by Sec. 1039.20 to avoid references to specific parts
of the CFR. This is intended to prevent confusion. We can approve
continued use of labels with the older previous statement under the
provisions of Sec. 1039.135(f). This may be needed, for example, if
manufacturers have remaining labels in their inventory.
Sec. 1039.101: Add a table entry to clarify how standards
apply for engines with maximum engine power above 560 kW. The current
rendering in the Code of Federal Regulations can be misleading.
Sec. 1039.102: Correct the heading of Table 6 to include
engines at or below 560 kW. The table was published in a way that
inadvertently excluded 560 kW engines.
Sec. 1039.135: Discontinue the equipment labeling
requirement to state that engines must be refueled with ultra low-
sulfur diesel fuel (ULSD). Since in-use diesel fuel for these engines
must universally meet ULSD requirements, there is no longer a benefit
to including this label information.
Sec. 1039.205: Add text to clarify how engine
manufacturers should identify information in the application for
certification related to engine diagnostic systems.
Sec. 1039.225: Clarify that amending an application for
certification applies prospectively. In particular, amending an
application does not apply for actions taken previously.
Sec. 1039.255: Clarify that doing anything to make
information false or incomplete after submitting an application for
certification is the same as submitting false or incomplete
information. For example, if there is a change to any corporate
information or engine parameters described in the manufacturer's
application for certification, the manufacturer must amend the
application to include the new information.
Sec. 1039.255: Clarify that voiding certificates for a
failure to comply with recordkeeping or reporting requirements will be
limited to the certificates that relate to the particular recordkeeping
or reporting failure.
Sec. 1039.740: Remove the reference to emission credits
from part 89. There is no need for this since the records related to
credit accounting do not identify credits as being from part 89 or part
1039.
Sec. 1039.801: Revise the definition of ``low-hour'' to
state that engines at or below 560 kW should qualify as ``low-hour''
only up to 125 hours, rather than 300 hours. This is intended to ensure
that engine's tested to establish the low-hour emission result for an
engine family are properly represented as new engines that have not
started to experience deterioration of emission controls. This does not
preclude continued testing beyond 125 hours, but it would prevent
manufacturers from planning test programs that extend well beyond 125
hours. This change aligns with the provisions that already apply for
marine diesel engines under 40 CFR part 1042. We request comment on
instead specifying the 125-hour threshold only for engines not expected
to use NOX aftertreatment; this would cover engines up to 56
kW under 40 CFR part 1039, and engines up to 600 kW under 40 CFR part
1042.
Sec. 1039.801: Revise the definition of ``small-volume
engine manufacturer'' to remove the requirement to have certified
engines in the United States before 2003. This limitation was related
to the transition to meeting the Tier 4 standards. Now that those
phase-in provisions have expired, the remaining provisions relate to
reporting CH4 and N2O emissions and using
assigned deterioration factors. We believe these provisions can
reasonably be applied to start-up small businesses meeting the Tier 4
standards.
Finally, in addition to the proposed amendments to 40 CFR part 1039
discussed above, we are requesting comment on the production limits for
the alternate FEL provision in 40 CFR 1039.101(d)(2). In particular, we
request comment on whether the NOX FEL cap should be
increased.
G. Additional Amendments for Marine Diesel Engines (40 CFR Parts 1042
and 1043)
EPA's emission standards and certification requirements for marine
diesel engines under the Clean Air Act are set out in 40 CFR part 1042.
Emission standards and related fuel requirements that apply
internationally are set out in 40 CFR part 1043.
Several proposed changes to 40 CFR part 1042 that apply more
broadly are described above. Specifically, Section III.B.2 describes
how we are proposing to remove regulatory content related to the Tier 1
and Tier 2 standards originally adopted in 40 CFR part 94. We are
accordingly proposing to amend 40 CFR part 1042 to remove references to
40 CFR part 94 that no longer apply.
This section describes additional proposed amendments for our
marine diesel engine program.
1. Marine Replacement Engine Exemption
We are proposing several adjustments to the replacement engine
exemption in Sec. 1042.615. First, we are clarifying the regulatory
determination that applies for cases involving new replacement engines
that are normally subject to Tier 4 standards. In the 2008 final rule
to
[[Page 28160]]
adopt the Tier 4 standards, we finalized a determination ``that Tier 4
engines equipped with aftertreatment technology to control either
NOX or PM are not required for use as replacement engines
for engines from previous tiers in accordance with this regulatory
replacement engine provision.'' The preamble to that final rule made it
clear that the determination was limited to ``Tier 4 marine diesel
replacement engines that comply with the Tier 4 standards through the
use of catalytic aftertreatment systems.'' (73 FR 37157) However, that
limitation was not copied into the regulatory text. Recent events,
including the certification of some engines to Tier 4 standards without
aftertreatment, make it necessary to revise this replacement engine
regulation to clarify that EPA originally intended for the
determination to apply only in cases where the Tier 4 engine relies on
aftertreatment technology, as indicated in the 2008 final rule. The
rule also stated that ``[s]hould an engine manufacturer develop a Tier
4 compliant engine solution that does not require the use of such
technology, then this automatic determination will not apply.''
Second, we propose to modify the requirement that engine
manufacturers notify EPA after shipping exempt replacement engines.
Sec. 1042.615(a) requires an engine manufacturer to send EPA
notification 30 days after shipping an exempt engine to demonstrate
that the selected engine was the cleanest available for the given
installation. We indicated that ``[t]hese records will be used by EPA
to evaluate whether engine manufacturers are properly making the
feasibility determination and applying the replacement engine
provisions.'' We also indicated that we expected engine manufacturers
to examine ``not just engine dimensions and weight but other pertinent
vessel characteristics such as drive shafts, reduction gears, cooling
systems, exhaust and ventilation systems, and propeller shafts;
electrical systems; . . . and such other ancillary systems and vessel
equipment that would affect the choice of an engine.'' While engine
manufacturers have submitted these reports, the information provided
has not supported our original objective. Specifically, the reports
vary widely in information provided but at the same time are too case-
specific. Therefore, we are proposing to require manufacturers to
submit a single annual report that is due at the same time as the
general requirement for reporting on replacement engines under 40 CFR
1068.240. The annual report would include the information described in
our 2008 rule for all the affected engines and vessels. This change
would provide a predictable schedule for EPA to review the submitted
information. This would also allow EPA to standardize the format and
substance of the reported information. Manufacturers would benefit from
submitting a consistent set of information in an annual submission for
all their replacement engine information.
Third, we are proposing to revise the regulatory instructions for
submitting replacement engine reports under Sec. 1042.615. The number
of exempt replacement engines would be limited to those that are
shipped to boat owners or designated for a specific vessel. Engine
manufacturers may produce and ship exempt replacement engines (with
per-cylinder displacement up to 7 liters) without making the specified
demonstrations, as allowed under 40 CFR 1068.240(c), but manufacturers
may produce only a limited number of those ``untracked'' engines in a
given year. Those untracked replacement engines are covered by the
reporting requirements that apply under Sec. 1068.240 since the
tracked exemption under Sec. 1042.615 and Sec. 1068.240(b) does not
allow for shipping engines to distributors without identifying a
specific installation and making the necessary demonstrations for that
installation. We are proposing to take a streamlined approach for Tier
3 engines since the demonstration for those engines consists of
affirming EPA's regulatory determination that no suitable Tier 4
engines (without aftertreatment) are available for replacement. We do
not expect engines with per-cylinder engine displacement below 7 liters
to be able to meet Tier 4 standards without aftertreatment devices. As
a result, Tier 3 replacement engines are limited only in that they may
not be used to replace engines that were certified to Tier 4 standards.
In this early stage of implementing Tier 4 standards, we expect it to
be several years before Tier 4 engines need replacement. On the other
hand, the gradual turnover of the fleet will make Tier 4 replacements
more common, which may in turn decrease the demand for Tier 3
replacement engines. We request comment on applying this streamlined
approach for Tier 3 replacement engines only through 2025 to reflect
this expected development.
Finally, we propose to clarify that the determination related to
Tier 4 replacement engines applies differently for engines that become
new based on vessel modifications. Under the definition of ``new
vessel'' in Sec. 1042.901, modification of an existing vessel may
cause the vessel to become ``new'' if the vessel modifications cause
the vessel's assessed value to at least double. In this case, all
engines installed on the vessel are subject to standards for the model
year based on the date of vessel modifications. Since the effective
dates of the Tier 4 standards, we have learned that there may be
circumstances in which vessel modifications may be substantial enough
to qualify a vessel as ``new,'' but the installation of new Tier 4
engines may not be practical or feasible without cost-prohibitive
additional vessel modifications. For example, a vessel owner may want
to make a substantial upgrade to an older vessel, including engine
replacement with a much lower-emitting engine. If the upgrade doubles
the assessed value of the vessel, this would trigger a need for all
installed or replacement engines above 600 kW to be certified to Tier 4
standards. We have learned that such a project may become cost-
prohibitive based on the additional vessel modifications needed to
accommodate the Tier 4 engine, which could cause the vessel to continue
operating in the higher-emitting configuration. To address this
scenario, we are proposing to allow the replacement engine exemption
for certain vessels that become new because of modifications, subject
to a set of conditions. Specifically, the exemption would apply only
with EPA's advance approval based on a demonstration that the
installation of a Tier 4 engine would require significant vessel
redesign that is infeasible or impractical. EPA's assessment may
account for the extent of the modifications already planned for the
project. EPA may approve installation of Tier 3 engines instead of Tier
4 engines for qualifying vessels. Recreational engines and commercial
engines below 600 kW are not subject to Tier 4 standards. As a result,
if a vessel becomes new through modification, it should be reasonable
to expect such new engines to be certified to Tier 3 standards rather
than being eligible for the replacement engine exemption.
Vessel modifications may also involve Category 3 engines, which are
subject to Tier 3 standards. Because these engines and vessels are so
large, we believe the exemption provisions described above for vessels
that become new as a result of modifications are not needed to
accommodate Tier 2 standards instead of Tier 3 standards. However, we
request comment on applying the exemption provisions for this
circumstance as described above for Category 1 and Category 2 engines.
We request comment on all aspects of the proposed amendments to the
[[Page 28161]]
replacement engine exemption for marine diesel engines.
2. Provisions Related to On-Off Controls for Marine Engines
EPA adopted the current set of emissions standards for Category 3
marine diesel engines in 2010 (75 FR 22932; April 30, 2010). The Tier 3
standards include provisions allowing engine manufacturers to design
their engines with control systems that allow an engine to meet the
Tier 3 standards while operating in U.S. waters, including the North
American Emission Control Area and the U.S. Caribbean Sea Emission
Control Area (ECAs), and the less stringent Tier 2 standards while
operating outside of U.S. waters. We refer to this design strategy as
``on-off control.'' These provisions reflect the geographic nature of
the NOX engine standards contained in Regulation 13, MARPOL
Annex VI.
Engine manufacturers have raised questions about the meaning of the
regulatory provision at Sec. 1042.101 that requires Category 3 engines
to ``comply fully with the Tier 2 standards when the Tier 3 emission
controls are disabled.'' This was intended to incorporate the ``on-off
controls'' allowed under MARPOL Annex VI for the IMO Tier III
NOX limits. The HC and CO standards for Category 3 engines
apply equally for EPA's Tier 2 and Tier 3 standards adopted under the
Clean Air Act, so there should be no question that those standards
apply even if NOX controls are disabled. While 40 CFR
1042.104 includes a PM requirement, it is a reporting requirement only.
The only other ``standard'' for Category 3 engines in 40 CFR part 1042
is the requirement related to mode caps in Sec. 1042.104(c). The mode
caps serve as separate emission standards for each test point in the
duty cycle used for certifying the engines. The 2010 final rule
describes how the mode caps are necessary for proper implementation of
the Tier 3 standards for SCR-equipped engines (75 FR 22932). Since
Category 3 engines with SCR systems would generally comply with the
Tier 2 NOX standard in the ``disabled'' configuration
without SCR, we believe there would be no benefit to applying the mode
caps as a part of the Tier 2 configuration for these Tier 3 engines
with on-off controls. We are therefore proposing to clarify that the
mode caps are associated only with the Tier 3 NOX standards.
This approach is consistent with the on-off control provisions adopted
under MARPOL Annex VI.
The regulation also allows for on-off controls for NOX
for auxiliary engines used on vessels powered by Category 3 engines.
More broadly, Sec. 1402.650(d) allows those engines to be certified to
MARPOL Annex VI standards instead of being certified to EPA's emission
standards under 40 CFR part 1042. The regulation as originally written
describes how these engines must comply with EPA's Tier 3 and Tier 4
standards in the same way that Category 3 engines must comply with
EPA's Tier 2 and Tier 3 standards. However, since auxiliary engines
installed on Category 3 vessels are certified to MARPOL Annex VI
standards instead of EPA's emission standards, the regulation should
describe how these auxiliary engines must meet the IMO Tier II and IMO
Tier III NOX standards to comply with the on-off control
provisions under Sec. 1042.115(g). These requirements related to the
EIAPP certificates for engines with on-off controls are addressed under
MARPOL Annex VI and 40 CFR part 1043.
3. Miscellaneous Marine Diesel Amendments
EPA is proposing to make several additional changes across 40 CFR
part 1042 to correct errors, to add clarification, and to make
adjustments based on lessons learned from implementing these regulatory
provisions. Specifically, EPA is proposing the following:
Sec. 1042.101: Revise the instruction for specifying a
longer useful life. The regulation as originally adopted states that
engine design, advertising, and marketing may equally serve as the
basis for establishing a longer useful life. We would not expect
manufacturers to specify a longer useful life based only on advertising
and marketing claims. The proposed amendment emphasizes that design
life is the basis for specifying a longer useful life, with the further
explanation that the recommended overhaul interval can be understood,
together with advertising and marketing materials and other relevant
factors, to properly represent an engine's design life.
Sec. 1042.101: The Federal Register mistakenly published
references to Tier 3 PM standards and Tier 4 PM standards. Since we
intended for those standards to apply at all times, we are amending the
regulation to properly refer to those as Tier 3 PM standards and Tier 4
PM standards.
Sec. 1042.115: Revise the provision related to on-off
controls to clarify that we have designated NOX Emission
Control Areas (ECAs) for U.S. waters. We no longer need to reference a
possible future ECA. We propose to use the U.S. ECA boundaries to
establish the area in which engines with on-off controls for
aftertreatment-based standards need to be fully operational.
Sec. 1042.125: Add maintenance requirements for fuel-
water separator cartridges or elements as an additional example of
maintenance that is not emission-related. This aligns with the
maintenance specifications for land-based nonroad diesel engines in 40
CFR part 1039.
Sec. 1042.135: Revise the labeling instruction for
engines installed in domestic-only vessels to clarify that it applies
only for engines above 130 kW, and that it applies equally for
commercial and recreational vessels. These changes both align the EPA
regulations to more closely align with the international standards
under MARPOL Annex VI.
Sec. 1042.145: Add a provision allowing more flexible
marine installation of engines meeting standards for land-based nonroad
manufacturers. The regulation as originally drafted allows
manufacturers to install certified land-based nonroad engines in marine
vessels. This is straightforward for recreational engines and for
engines at or above 600 kW because the emission standards from the two
programs are nearly identical. Commercial marine engines below 600 kW
are subject to Tier 3 standards, while the comparable land-based
nonroad engines are subject to more stringent Tier 4 standards. This
makes the intended flexibility provision impractical for these engines.
We are proposing to address that by allowing manufacturers to use the
flexibility for land-based nonroad engines that were certified to the
Tier 3 emission standards in an earlier model year. Note that land-
based nonroad engines below 37 kW and above 560 kW were never subject
to Tier 3 emission standards, so this proposed provision would not
apply to them. Those land-based nonroad engines were subject to Tier 2
standards, which are substantially less stringent than the marine Tier
3 standards for NOX + HC or PM (or both). The detailed
compliance provisions for these engines are described in 40 CFR
1068.265.
Sec. 1042.225: Clarify that amending an application for
certification applies prospectively. In particular, amending an
application does not apply for actions taken previously.
Sec. 1042.255: Clarify that doing anything to make
information false or incomplete after submitting an application for
certification is the same as submitting false or incomplete
information. For example, if there is a change to any corporate
information or engine parameters described in the
[[Page 28162]]
manufacturer's application for certification, the manufacturer must
amend the application to include the new information.
Sec. 1042.255: Clarify that voiding certificates for a
failure to comply with recordkeeping or reporting requirements will be
limited to the certificates that relate to the particular recordkeeping
or reporting failure.
Sec. 1042.302: For emission testing during sea trials for
Category 3 engines with on-off controls, allow manufacturers the
flexibility to omit testing in Tier 2 mode if they do not need
aftertreatment to meet the Tier 2 standards. We are most interested in
compliance with the Tier 3 standards, since those controls are active
anytime vessels are operating within ECA boundaries. System design and
calibration with aftertreatment involves greater uncertainty than
engines that comply using only in-cylinder controls. As a result, we
believe the compliance demonstration for Tier 2 mode adds value only if
it involves aftertreatment.
Sec. 1042.650: Revise the introductory text to clarify
that paragraphs (a) through (c) continue to apply only for Category 1
and Category 2 engines, and that the provisions related to auxiliary
engines on Category 3 vessels in paragraph (d) apply equally for
Category 3 auxiliary engines. By adding paragraph (d) with limitation
described in the section's introductory text, we inadvertently excluded
Category 3 auxiliary engines.
Sec. 1042.655: Clarify that measuring engine-out
emissions for engines that use exhaust aftertreatment must account for
the backpressure and other effects associated with the aftertreatment
devices. While improving the alignment between measured results and
modeled results, this change also has the effect of removing the
expectation that engine-out (pre-catalyst) emissions must meet Tier 2
standards; this is intended to address the case in which an engine may
meet the Tier 2 standards with a different SCR dosing strategy rather
than by completely disabling the SCR system.
Sec. 1042.701: Remove the reference to emission credits
from part 94. This reference is not needed since the records related to
credit accounting do not identify credits as being from part 94 or part
1042.
Sec. 1042.801: Remove the requirement to register fuels
used to certify remanufacturing systems. EPA does not register fuels
such as natural gas or liquefied petroleum gas, so it is not
appropriate to impose such a registration requirement. The requirement
continues to apply for remanufacturing systems that are based on diesel
fuel additives.
Sec. 1043.41: Clarify that engine manufacturers may
continue to produce new engines under an established EIAPP certificate
after a change in emission standards for purposes other than
installation in a new vessel. For example, manufacturers may need to
produce engines certified to IMO Tier II NOX standards after
2016 for installation as replacement engines in vessels built before
2016.
Sec. 1042.910 and Sec. 1043.100: Incorporate by
reference the 2017 edition of MARPOL Annex VI and the NOx Technical
Code, dated 2017, which contains all amendments through 2016.
Engine manufacturers have been testing production engines as
described in 40 CFR part 1042. This generally involves testing up to 1
percent of production engines for engine families with production
volumes greater than 100 engines. We adopted these testing provisions
with the expectation that most families would have production volumes
greater than 100 engines per year. It turns out that there are a few
families with production volumes substantially greater than 100 engines
per year, but many families qualify as small-volume families that are
not subject to production-line testing requirements. As a result,
manufacturers test several engines in large engine families, but many
engine families have no production-line testing at all.
The biggest benefit of production-line testing for this sector is
to confirm that engine manufacturers can go beyond the prototype engine
build for certification and move to building compliant engines in a
production environment. From this perspective, the first test is of
most value, with additional tests adding assurance of proper quality
control procedures for ongoing production. We are considering whether
to revise the production-line testing regimen for marine diesel engines
to reflect this basic objective. Toward that end, we would consider
amending the regulation to require no more than one test per family. An
engine test from a prior year would count as a sufficient demonstration
as long as the manufacturer certifies the engine family using carryover
emission data. At the same time, we would remove the testing exemption
for small businesses and small-volume engine families. We believe this
would result in a more effective program with no increase in overall
testing.
We have prepared a memorandum to spell out a possible approach for
a revised production-line testing protocol.\21\ We request comment on
amending the production-line testing program to require broader testing
at lower sampling rates.

H. Portable Fuel Containers (40 CFR Part 59)
EPA's emission standards and certification requirements for
portable fuel containers are described in 40 CFR part 59. Section III.A
describes a proposed amendment related to test fuel specifications. In
addition, we are proposing the following amendments:
Sec. 59.626: Correct the reference to additional testing
to recognize that the manufacturer may need to test multiple
containers.
Sec. 59.628: Align recordkeeping specifications with the
provisions that apply for nonroad engines and equipment. This removes
the ambiguity from applying specifications differently for different
types of testing information. As noted in Section III.J, now that test
records are stored electronically, there is no reason to differentiate
testing information into routine and non-routine records.
Sec. 59.650: Revise the blending instruction to specify a
lower level of precision; specifying a range of 10.0 1.0
percent, which is consistent with the approach we take in 40 CFR
1060.515 and 1060.520.
Sec. 59.653: Correct the pressure specification for
durability testing. The amendment adjusts the kPa value to match the
psi value in the regulation. This aligns with the pressure testing
specified for nonroad fuel tanks.
