The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is requesting comment on applications from Ford Motor Company (``Ford'') for off- cycle carbon dioxide (CO2) credits under EPA's light-duty vehicle greenhouse gas emissions standards. ``Off-cycle'' emission reductions can be achieved by employing technologies that result in real-world benefits, but where that benefit is not adequately captured on the test procedures used by manufacturers to demonstrate compliance with emission standards.

In these cases, a manufacturer must provide EPA with a proposed methodology for determining the real-world off-cycle benefit.
