Section 445B.846 - Manufacturer failing to meet credit obligation required to make up deficiency; administrative fine

1. A manufacturer that fails to meet the credit obligation for the production and delivery of zero emission vehicles in this State in a given model year must make up the credit deficit by submitting a commensurate amount of ZEV credits to the Director pursuant to and within the time specified in section 1962.2(g)(7) of Title 13 of the California Code of Regulations, as adopted pursuant to NAC 445B.816.

2. If a manufacturer fails to submit an appropriate amount of ZEV credits as required pursuant to subsection 1 and does not make up the deficit, the Director must refer the matter to the Department of Motor Vehicles. The Department of Motor Vehicles may impose an administrative fine on the manufacturer pursuant to NRS 445B.835 for each motor vehicle sold by the manufacturer for which the manufacturer did not meet its credit obligation, as determined pursuant to subsection 3.

3. For the purposes of the administrative fine imposed by the Department of Motor Vehicles pursuant to subsection 2, the number of vehicles for which the manufacturer did not meet the credit obligation is equal to the manufacturer's credit deficit, rounded to the nearest 1/100th and calculated according to the equation provided in section 1962(g)(8) of Title 13 of the California Code of Regulations, as adopted pursuant to NAC 445B.816, provided that the percentage of a manufacturer's ZEV requirement for a given model year that may be satisfied with transitional zero emission vehicles or credits from such vehicles may not exceed the percentages permitted under section 1962.2(b)(2) of Title 13 of the California Code of Regulations, as adopted by reference pursuant to NAC 445B.816.
