                               EXPLANATION

    The Code of Federal Regulations is a codification of the general and 
permanent rules published in the Federal Register by the Executive 
departments and agencies of the Federal Government. The Code is divided 
into 50 titles which represent broad areas subject to Federal 
regulation. Each title is divided into chapters which usually bear the 
name of the issuing agency. Each chapter is further subdivided into 
parts covering specific regulatory areas.
    Each volume of the Code is revised at least once each calendar year 
and issued on a quarterly basis approximately as follows:

Title 1 through Title 16.................................as of January 1
Title 17 through Title 27..................................as of April 1
Title 28 through Title 41...................................as of July 1
Title 42 through Title 50................................as of October 1
    The appropriate revision date is printed on the cover of each 
volume.

LEGAL STATUS

    The contents of the Federal Register are required to be judicially 
noticed (44 U.S.C. 1507). The Code of Federal Regulations is prima facie 
evidence of the text of the original documents (44 U.S.C. 1510).

HOW TO USE THE CODE OF FEDERAL REGULATIONS

    The Code of Federal Regulations is kept up to date by the individual 
issues of the Federal Register. These two publications must be used 
together to determine the latest version of any given rule.
    To determine whether a Code volume has been amended since its 
revision date (in this case, July 1, 1998), consult the ``List of CFR 
Sections Affected (LSA),'' which is issued monthly, and the ``Cumulative 
List of Parts Affected,'' which appears in the Reader Aids section of 
the daily Federal Register. These two lists will identify the Federal 
Register page number of the latest amendment of any given rule.

EFFECTIVE AND EXPIRATION DATES

    Each volume of the Code contains amendments published in the Federal 
Register since the last revision of that volume of the Code. Source 
citations for the regulations are referred to by volume number and page 
number of the Federal Register and date of publication. Publication 
dates and effective dates are usually not the same and care must be 
exercised by the user in determining the actual effective date. In 
instances where the effective date is beyond the cut-off date for the 
Code a note has been inserted to reflect the future effective date. In 
those instances where a regulation published in the Federal Register 
states a date certain for expiration, an appropriate note will be 
inserted following the text.

OMB CONTROL NUMBERS

    The Paperwork Reduction Act of 1980 (Pub. L. 96-511) requires 
Federal agencies to display an OMB control number with their information 
collection request.

[[Page vi]]

Many agencies have begun publishing numerous OMB control numbers as 
amendments to existing regulations in the CFR. These OMB numbers are 
placed as close as possible to the applicable recordkeeping or reporting 
requirements.

OBSOLETE PROVISIONS

    Provisions that become obsolete before the revision date stated on 
the cover of each volume are not carried. Code users may find the text 
of provisions in effect on a given date in the past by using the 
appropriate numerical list of sections affected. For the period before 
January 1, 1986, consult either the List of CFR Sections Affected, 1949-
1963, 1964-1972, or 1973-1985, published in seven separate volumes. For 
the period beginning January 1, 1986, a ``List of CFR Sections 
Affected'' is published at the end of each CFR volume.

INCORPORATION BY REFERENCE

    What is incorporation by reference? Incorporation by reference was 
established by statute and allows Federal agencies to meet the 
requirement to publish regulations in the Federal Register by referring 
to materials already published elsewhere. For an incorporation to be 
valid, the Director of the Federal Register must approve it. The legal 
effect of incorporation by reference is that the material is treated as 
if it were published in full in the Federal Register (5 U.S.C. 552(a)). 
This material, like any other properly issued regulation, has the force 
of law.
    What is a proper incorporation by reference? The Director of the 
Federal Register will approve an incorporation by reference only when 
the requirements of 1 CFR part 51 are met. Some of the elements on which 
approval is based are:
    (a) The incorporation will substantially reduce the volume of 
material published in the Federal Register.
    (b) The matter incorporated is in fact available to the extent 
necessary to afford fairness and uniformity in the administrative 
process.
    (c) The incorporating document is drafted and submitted for 
publication in accordance with 1 CFR part 51.
    Properly approved incorporations by reference in this volume are 
listed in the Finding Aids at the end of this volume.
    What if the material incorporated by reference cannot be found? If 
you have any problem locating or obtaining a copy of material listed in 
the Finding Aids of this volume as an approved incorporation by 
reference, please contact the agency that issued the regulation 
containing that incorporation. If, after contacting the agency, you find 
the material is not available, please notify the Director of the Federal 
Register, National Archives and Records Administration, Washington DC 
20408, or call (202) 523-4534.

CFR INDEXES AND TABULAR GUIDES

    A subject index to the Code of Federal Regulations is contained in a 
separate volume, revised annually as of January 1, entitled CFR Index 
and Finding Aids. This volume contains the Parallel Table of Statutory 
Authorities and Agency Rules (Table I), and Acts Requiring Publication 
in the Federal Register (Table II). A list of CFR titles, chapters, and 
parts and an alphabetical list of agencies publishing in the CFR are 
also included in this volume.
    An index to the text of ``Title 3--The President'' is carried within 
that volume.
    The Federal Register Index is issued monthly in cumulative form. 
This index is based on a consolidation of the ``Contents'' entries in 
the daily Federal Register.

[[Page vii]]

    A List of CFR Sections Affected (LSA) is published monthly, keyed to 
the revision dates of the 50 CFR titles.

REPUBLICATION OF MATERIAL

    There are no restrictions on the republication of material appearing 
in the Code of Federal Regulations.

INQUIRIES

    (A) A minimum of the percentage shown in table A00-5 of a 
manufacturer's sales of the applicable model year's heavy light-duty 
trucks shall not exceed the applicable SFTP standards in table A00-6 
when tested under the procedures in subpart B of this part indicated for 
2002 and later model year heavy light-duty trucks.
    (B) Sales percentages for the purposes of determining compliance 
with paragraph (e)(1)(ii)(A) of this section shall be based on total 
actual U.S. sales of heavy light-duty trucks of the applicable model 
year by a manufacturer to a dealer, distributor, fleet operator, broker, 
or any other entity which comprises the point of first sale.
    (C) The manufacturer may petition the Administrator to allow actual 
volume produced for U.S. sale to be used in lieu of actual U.S. sales 
for purposes of determining compliance with the implementation schedule 
sales percentages of table A00-5. Such petition shall be submitted 
within 30 days of the end of the model year to the Vehicle Programs and 
Compliance Division. For the petition to be granted, the manufacturer 
must establish to the satisfaction of the Administrator that actual 
production volume is functionally equivalent to actual sales volume.
    (ii) These SFTP standards do not apply to heavy light-duty trucks 
certified on alternative fuels, but the standards do apply to the 
gasoline fuel operation of flexible fuel vehicles and dual fuel 
vehicles.
    (iii) These SFTP standards do not apply to heavy light-duty trucks 
tested at high altitude.
    (iv) The air to fuel ratio shall not be richer at any time than the 
leanest air to fuel mixture required to obtain maximum torque (lean best 
torque), plus a tolerance of six (6) percent. The Administrator may 
approve a manufacturer's request for additional enrichment if it can be 
shown that additional enrichment is needed to protect the engine of 
emissions control hardware.

Sec. 86.096-24.
    (b)(1)(i) Vehicles are chosen to be operated and tested for emission 
data based upon engine family groupings. Within each engine family, one 
test vehicle is selected. If air conditioning is projected to be 
available on any vehicles within the engine family, the Administrator 
will limit selections to engine codes which have air conditioning

[[Page 24]]

available and will require that any vehicle selected under this section 
has air conditioning installed and operational. The Administrator 
selects as the test vehicle the vehicle with the heaviest equivalent 
test weight (including options) within the family which meets the air 
conditioning eligibility requirement discussed earlier in this section. 
If more than one vehicle meets this criterion, then within that vehicle 
grouping, the Administrator selects, in the order listed, the highest 
road-load power, largest displacement, the transmission with the highest 
numerical final gear ratio (including overdrive), the highest numerical 
axle ratio offered in that engine family, and the maximum fuel flow 
calibration.
    (ii) The Administrator selects one additional test vehicle from 
within each engine family. The additional vehicle selected is the 
vehicle expected to exhibit the highest emissions of those vehicles 
remaining in the engine family. The selected vehicle will include an air 
conditioning engine code unless the Administrator chooses a worst 
vehicle configuration that is not available with air conditioning. If 
all vehicles within the engine family are similar, the Administrator may 
waive the requirements of this paragraph.

percent or less of a carline, within an engine-system combination, will 
be equipped with an item (whether that item is standard equipment or an 
option) that can reasonably be expected to influence emissions, that 
item may not be installed on any emission data vehicle or durability 
data vehicle of that carline within that engine-system combination, 
unless that item is standard equipment on that vehicle or specifically 
required by the Administrator.
    (4) Air conditioning must be installed and operational on any 
emission data vehicle of any vehicle configuration that is projected to 
be available with air conditioning regardless of the rate of 
installation of air conditioning within the carline. Section 86.096-
24(g) (1) and (2) and paragraph (g)(3) of this section will be used to 
determine whether the weight of the air conditioner will be included in 
equivalent test weight calculations for emission testing.

    (a)(1) [Reserved]. For guidance see Sec. 86.094-26.
    (a)(2) The standard method of whole-vehicle service accumulation for 
durability data vehicles and for emission data vehicles shall be mileage 
accumulation using the Durability Driving Schedule as specified in 
appendix IV to this part. A modified procedure may also be used if 
approved in advance by the Administrator. Except with the advance 
approval of the Administrator, all vehicles will accumulate mileage at a 
measured curb weight which is within 100 pounds of the estimated curb 
weight. If the loaded vehicle weight is within 100 pounds of being 
included in the next higher inertia weight class as specified in 
Sec. 86.129, the manufacturer may elect to conduct the respective 
emission tests at higher loaded vehicle weight.
    (3) Emission data vehicles. Unless otherwise provided for in 
Sec. 86.000-23(a), emission-data vehicles shall be operated and tested 
as described in paragraph (a)(3)(i)(A) of this section; Sec. 86.094-
26(a)(3)(i)(B) and (D), Sec. 86.098-26(a)(3)(i)(C) and (a)(3)(ii)(C), 
and Sec. 86.094-26(a)(3)(ii) (A), (B) and (D).
    (i) Otto-cycle. (A) The manufacturer shall determine, for each 
engine family, the mileage at which the engine-system combination is 
stabilized for emission-data testing. The manufacturer shall maintain, 
and provide to the Administrator if requested, a record of the rationale 
used in making this determination. The manufacturer may elect to 
accumulate 4,000 miles on each test vehicle within an engine family 
without making a determination. The manufacturer must accumulate a 
minimum of 2,000 miles (3,219 kilometers) on each test vehicle within an 
engine family. All test vehicle mileage must be accurately determined, 
recorded, and reported to the Administrator. Any vehicle used to 
represent emission-data vehicle selections under Sec. 86.000-24(b)(1) 
shall be equipped with an engine and emission control system that has 
accumulated the mileage the manufacturer chose to accumulate on the test

    (a)(1) This paragraph (a) applies to light duty vehicles.
    (2) Each exhaust, evaporative and refueling emission standard (and 
family particulate emission limits, as appropriate) of Sec. 86.000-8 
applies to the emissions of vehicles for the appropriate useful life as 
defined in Secs. 86.000-2 and 86.000-8.
    (a)(3) [Reserved]. For guidance see Sec. 86.094-28.
    (a)(4) Introductory text [Reserved]. For guidance see Sec. 86.098-
28.
    (a)(4)(i) Separate emission deterioration factors for each regulated 
exhaust constituent shall be determined from the FTP exhaust emission 
results of the durability-data vehicle(s) for each engine-system 
combination. Unless the Administrator approves a manufacturer's request 
to develop specific deterioration factors for US06 and air conditioning 
(SC03) test results, applicable FTP deterioration factors will also be 
used to estimate intermediate and full useful life emissions for all 
SFTP regulated emission levels. Separate evaporative and/or refueling 
emission deterioration factors shall be determined for each evaporative/
refueling emission family-emission control system combination from the 
testing conducted by the manufacturer (gasoline-fueled and methanol-
fueled vehicles only). Separate refueling emission deterioration factors 
shall be determined for each evaporative/refueling emission family-
emission control system combination from the testing conducted by the 
manufacturer (petroleum-fueled diesel cycle vehicles not certified under 
the provisions of Sec. 86.098-28(g) only).

Sec. 86.098-28.
    (a)(4)(ii)(A)(1) The official exhaust emission test results for each 
applicable exhaust emission standard for each emission data vehicle at 
the selected test point shall be multiplied by the appropriate 
deterioration factor: Provided, that if a deterioration factor as 
computed in paragraph (a)(4)(i)(B)(2)(ii) of this section is less than 
one, that deterioration factor shall be one for the purposes of this 
paragraph. For the SFTP composite standard of (NMHC+NOX), the 
measured results of NMHC and NOX must each be multiplied by 
their corresponding deterioration factors before the composite 
(NMHC+NOX) standard is calculated.
    (2) The calculation specified in paragraph (a)(4)(ii)(A)(1) of this 
section may be modified with advance approval of the Administrator for 
engine-system combinations which are certified under the Alternative 
Service Accumulation Durability Program specified in Sec. 86.094-13(e).

emissions of Sec. 86.098-28 (a)(4)(ii)(B) and (C) and paragraph 
(a)(4)(ii)(A) of this section 211a for each emission-data vehicle. For 
the SFTP composite (NMHC+NOX) results, the individual 
deterioration factors must be applied to the applicable NMHC and 
NOX test results prior to calculating the adjusted composite 
(NMHC+NOX) level that is compared with the standard. The 
additional composite calculations that are required by the SFTP are 
discussed in Sec. 86.164-00 (Supplemental federal test procedure 
calculations). Before any emission value is compared with the standard 
(or the family particulate emission limit, as appropriate), it shall be 
rounded to two significant figures in accordance with the Rounding-Off 
Method specified in ASTM E29-90, Standard Practice for Using Significant 
Digits in Test Data to Determine

[[Page 28]]

Conformance with Specifications (incorporated by reference; see

    (a)(7)(i) Separate deterioration factors shall be determined from 
the exhaust emission results of the durability data vehicles for each 
emission standard applicable under Sec. 86.000-8, for each engine family 
group. Unless the Administrator approves a manufacturer's request to 
develop specific deterioration factors for US06 and air conditioning 
(SC03) test results, applicable deterioration factors determined from 
FTP exhaust emission results will also be used to estimate intermediate 
and full useful life emissions for all SFTP regulated emission levels. 
The evaporative and/or refueling emission deterioration factors for each 
evaporative/refueling family will be determined and applied in 
accordance with Sec. 86.098-28 (a)(4) introductory text, (a)(4)(i)(C)

    (b)(4)(ii) Separate exhaust emission deterioration factors for each 
regulated exhaust constituent, determined from tests of vehicles, 
engines, subsystems, or components conducted by the manufacturer, shall 
be supplied for each standard and for each engine-system combination. 
Unless the Administrator approves a manufacturer's request to develop 
specific deterioration factors for US06 and air conditioning (SC03) test 
results, applicable deterioration factors determined from FTP exhaust 
emission results will also be used to estimate intermediate and full 
useful life emissions for all SFTP regulated emission levels.
    (iii) The official exhaust emission results for each applicable 
exhaust emission standard for each emission data vehicle at the selected 
test point shall be adjusted by multiplication by the appropriate 
deterioration factor. However, if the deterioration factor supplied by 
the manufacturer is less than one, it shall be one for the purposes of 
this paragraph (b)(4)(iii).
    (iv) The emissions to compare with the standard(s) (or the family 
particulate emission limit, as appropriate) shall be the adjusted 
emissions of paragraph (b)(4)(iii) of this section for each emission-
data vehicle. For the SFTP composite (NMHC+NOX) results, the 
individual deterioration factors must be applied to the applicable NMHC 
and NOX test results prior to calculating the adjusted 
composite (NMHC+NOX) level that is compared with the 
standard. The additional composite calculations that are required by the 
SFTP are discussed in Sec. 86.164-00 (Supplemental federal test 
procedure calculations). Before any emission value is compared with the 
standard, it shall be rounded to two significant figures in accordance 
with the Rounding-Off Method specified in ASTM E29-90, Standard Practice 
for Using Significant Digits in Test Data to Determine Conformance with 
Specifications (incorporated by reference; see Sec. 86.1).

emission standard.
    (ii) This certification is provided in writing and applies to the 
full useful life of the vehicle.
    (2) EPA retains the authority to require testing to enforce 
compliance and to prevent non-compliance with the Fuel Dispensing 
Spitback Standard.
    (g) Inherently low refueling emission testing waiver. (1) Vehicles 
using fuels/fuel systems inherently low in refueling emissions are not 
required to conduct testing to demonstrate compliance with the refueling 
emission standards set forth in Secs. 86.098-8, 86.099-8 or 86.001-9: 
Provided, that--
    (i) This provision is only available for petroleum diesel fuel. It 
is only available if the Reid Vapor Pressure of in-use diesel fuel is 
equal to or less than 1 psi (7 Kpa) and for diesel vehicles whose fuel 
tank temperatures do not exceed 130  deg.F (54  deg.C); and
    (ii) To certify using this provision the manufacturer must attest to 
the following evaluation: ``Due to the low vapor pressure of diesel fuel 
and the vehicle tank temperatures, hydrocarbon vapor concentrations are 
low and the vehicle meets the 0.20 grams/gallon refueling emission 
standard without a control system.''
    (2) The certification required in paragraph (g)(1)(ii) of this 
section must be provided in writing and must apply for the full useful 
life of the vehicle.
    (3) EPA reserves the authority to require testing to enforce 
compliance and to prevent noncompliance with the refueling emission 
standard.
    (4) Vehicles certified to the refueling emission standard under this 
provision shall not be counted in the sales percentage compliance 
determinations for the 2001, 2002 and subsequent model years.
    (h) Fixed liquid level gauge waiver. Liquefied petroleum gas-fueled 
vehicles which contain fixed liquid level gauges or other gauges or 
valves which can be opened to release fuel or fuel vapor

[[Page 37]]

during refueling, and which are being tested for refueling emissions, 
are not required to be tested with such gauges or valves open, as 
outlined in Sec. 86.157-98(d)(2), provided the manufacturer can 
demonstrate, to the satisfaction of the Administrator, that such gauges 
or valves would not be opened during refueling in-use due to 
inaccessibility or other design features that would prevent or make it 
very unlikely that such gauges or valves could be opened.

Sec. 86.004-2  Definitions.

    The definitions of Sec. 86.001-2 continue to apply to 2001 and later 
model year vehicles. The definitions listed in this section apply 
beginning with the 2004 model year.
    Useful life means:
    (1) For light-duty vehicles, and for light light-duty trucks not 
subject to the Tier 0 standards of Sec. 86.094-9(a), intermediate useful 
life and/or full useful life. Intermediate useful life is a period of 
use of 5 years or 50,000 miles, whichever occurs first. Full useful life 
is a period of use of 10 years or 100,000 miles, whichever occurs first, 
except as otherwise noted in Sec. 86.094-9. The useful life of 
evaporative and/or refueling emission control systems on the portion of 
these vehicles subject to the evaporative emission test requirements of 
Sec. 86.130-96, and/or the refueling emission test requirements of 
Sec. 86.151-98, is defined as a period of use of 10 years or 100,000 
miles, whichever occurs first.
    (2) For light light-duty trucks subject to the Tier 0 standards of 
Sec. 86.094-9(a), and for heavy light-duty truck engine families, 
intermediate and/or full useful life. Intermediate useful life is a 
period of use of 5 years or 50,000 miles, whichever occurs first. Full 
useful life is a period of use of 11 years or 120,000 miles, whichever 
occurs first. The useful life of evaporative emission and/or refueling 
control systems on the portion of these vehicles subject to the 
evaporative emission test requirements of Sec. 86.130-96, and/or the 
refueling emission test requirements of Sec. 86.151-98, is also defined 
as a period of 11 years or 120,000 miles, whichever occurs first.
    (3) For an Otto-cycle HDE family:
    (i) For hydrocarbon and carbon monoxide standards, a period of use 
of 10 years or 110,000 miles, whichever first occurs.
    (ii) For the oxides of nitrogen standard, a period of use of 10 
years or 110,000 miles, whichever first occurs.
    (iii) For the portion of evaporative emission control systems 
subject to the evaporative emission test requirements of Sec. 86.1230-
96, a period of use of 10 years or 110,000 miles, whichever first 
occurs.
    (4) For a diesel HDE family:
    (i) For light heavy-duty diesel engines, for carbon monoxide, 
particulate, and oxides of nitrogen plus non-methane hydrocarbons 
emissions standards, a period of use of 10 years or 110,000 miles, 
whichever first occurs.

[[Page 39]]

    (ii) For medium heavy-duty diesel engines, for carbon monoxide, 
particulate, and oxides of nitrogen plus non-methane hydrocarbons 
emission standards, a period of use of 10 years or 185,000 miles, 
whichever first occurs.
    (iii) For heavy heavy-duty diesel engines, for carbon monoxide, 
particulate, and oxides of nitrogen plus non-methane hydrocarbon 
emissions standards, a period of use of 10 years or 435,000 miles, or 
22,000 hours, whichever first occurs, except as provided in paragraphs 
(4)(iv) and (4)(v) of this definition.
    (iv) The useful life limit of 22,000 hours in paragraph (4)(iii) of 
this definition is effective as a limit to the useful life only when an 
accurate hours meter is provided by the manufacturer with the engine and 
only when such hours meter can reasonably be expected to operate 
properly over the useful life of the engine.
    (v) For an individual engine, if the useful life hours limit of 
22,000 hours is reached before the engine reaches 10 years or 100,000 
miles, the useful life shall become 10 years or 100,000 miles, whichever 
occurs first, as required under Clean Air Act section 202(d).
    (5) As an option for both light-duty trucks under certain conditions 
and HDE families, an alternative useful life period may be assigned by 
the Administrator under the provisions of Sec. 86.094-21(f).
    Warranty period, for purposes of HDE emissions defect warranty and 
emissions performance warranty, shall be a period of 5 years/50,000 
miles, whichever occurs first, for Otto-cycle HDEs and light heavy-duty 
diesel engines. For all other heavy-duty diesel engines the 
aforementioned period shall be 5 years/100,000 miles, whichever occurs 
first. However, in no case may this period be less than the basic 
mechanical warranty period that the manufacturer provides (with or 
without additional charge) to the purchaser of the engine. Extended 
warranties on select parts do not extend the emissions warranty 
requirements for the entire engine but only for those parts. In cases 
where responsibility for an extended warranty is shared between the 
owner and the manufacturer, the emissions warranty shall also be shared 
in the same manner as specified in the warranty agreement.

of credits.
    (E) No later than December 31, 1999, the Administrator shall review 
the emissions standards set forth in paragraph (a)(1)(i) of this section 
and determine whether these standards continue to be appropriate under 
the Act.
    (ii) Carbon monoxide. (A) 15.5 grams per brake horsepower-hour (5.77 
grams per megajoule), as measured under transient operating conditions.
    (B) 0.50 percent of exhaust gas flow at curb idle (methanol-, 
natural gas-, and liquefied petroleum gas-fueled diesel HDEs only).
    (iii) Particulate. (A) For diesel engines to be used in urban buses, 
0.05 gram per brake horsepower-hour (0.019 gram per megajoule) for 
certification testing and selective enforcement audit testing, and 0.07 
gram per brake horsepower-hour (0.026 gram per megajoule) for in-use 
testing, as measured under transient operating conditions.
    (B) For all other diesel engines, 0.10 gram per brake horsepower-
hour (0.037 gram per megajoule), as measured under transient operating 
conditions.

[[Page 41]]

    (C) A manufacturer may elect to include any or all of its diesel HDE 
families in any or all of the particulate ABT programs for HDEs, within 
the restrictions described in Sec. 86.004-15 or superseding applicable 
sections. If the manufacturer elects to include engine families in any 
of these programs, the particulate FEL may not exceed 0.25 gram per 
brake horsepower-hour (0.093 gram per megajoule).
    (2) The standards set forth in paragraph (a)(1) of this section 
refer to the exhaust emitted over the operating schedule set forth in 
paragraph (f)(2) of appendix I to this part, and measured and calculated 
in accordance with the procedures set forth in subpart N or P of this 
part, except as noted in Sec. 86.098-23(c)(2) or superceding sections.
    (b)(1) The opacity of smoke emission from new 2004 and later model 
year diesel HDEs shall not exceed:
    (i) 20 percent during the engine acceleration mode.
    (ii) 15 percent during the engine lugging mode.
    (iii) 50 percent during the peaks in either mode.
    (2) The standards set forth in paragraph (b)(1) of this section 
refer to exhaust smoke emissions generated under the conditions set 
forth in subpart I of this part and measured and calculated in 
accordance with those procedures.
    (3) Evaporative emissions (total of non-oxygenated hydrocarbons plus 
methanol) from heavy-duty vehicles equipped with methanol-fueled diesel 
engines shall not exceed the following standards. The standards apply 
equally to certification and in-use vehicles. The spitback standard also 
applies to newly assembled vehicles.
    (i) For vehicles with a Gross Vehicle Weight Rating of up to 14,000 
lbs:
    (A)(1) For the full three-diurnal test sequence described in 
Sec. 86.1230-96, diurnal plus hot soak measurements: 3.0 grams per test.

    (iii)(A) For vehicles with a Gross Vehicle Weight Rating of up to 
26,000 lbs, the standards set forth in paragraph (b)(3) of this section 
refer to a composite sample of evaporative emissions collected under the 
conditions and measured in accordance with the procedures set forth in 
subpart M of this part. For certification vehicles only, manufacturers 
may conduct testing to quantify a level of nonfuel background emissions 
for an individual test vehicle. Such a demonstration must include a 
description of the source(s) of emissions and an estimated decay rate. 
The demonstrated level of nonfuel background emissions may be subtracted 
from emission test results from certification vehicles if approved in 
advance by the Administrator.
    (B) For vehicles with a Gross Vehicle Weight Rating of greater than 
26,000 lbs., the standards set forth in paragraph (b)(3)(ii) of this 
section refer to the manufacturer's engineering design evaluation using 
good engineering practice (a statement of which is required in 
Sec. 86.091-23(b)(4)(ii)).
    (iv) All fuel vapor generated during in-use operations shall be 
routed exclusively to the evaporative control system (e.g., either 
canister or engine purge). The only exception to this requirement shall 
be for emergencies.
    (4) Evaporative emissions from 2004 and later model year heavy-duty

    (ii) For vehicles with a Gross Vehicle Weight Rating of greater than 
14,000 pounds for the full three-diurnal test sequence described in 
Sec. 86.1230-96, diurnal plus hot soak measurements: 4.0 grams per test.
    (iii)(A) For vehicles with a Gross Vehicle Weight Rating of up to 
26,000 pounds, the standards set forth in paragraph (b)(4) of this 
section refer to a composite sample of evaporative emissions collected 
under the conditions set forth in subpart M of this part and measured in 
accordance with those procedures.
    (B) For vehicles with a Gross Vehicle Weight Rating greater than 
26,000 pounds, the standards set forth in paragraphs (b)(3)(ii) and 
(b)(4)(ii) of this section refer to the manufacturer's engineering 
design evaluation using good engineering practice (a statement of which 
is required in Sec. 86.091-23(b)(4)(ii)).
    (c) No crankcase emissions shall be discharged into the ambient 
atmosphere from any new 2004 or later model year methanol-, natural gas-
, or liquefied petroleum gas-fueled diesel, or any naturally-aspirated 
diesel HDE. For petroleum-fueled engines only, this provision does not 
apply to engines using turbochargers, pumps, blowers, or superchargers 
for air induction.
    (d) Every manufacturer of new motor vehicle engines subject to the 
standards prescribed in this section shall, prior to taking any of the 
actions specified in section 203(a)(1) of the Act, test or cause to be 
tested motor vehicle engines in accordance with applicable procedures in 
subpart I or N of this part to ascertain that such test engines meet the 
requirements of paragraphs (a), (b), (c), and (d) of this section.

Sec. 86.004-15  NOX and particulate averaging, trading, and banking for heavy-duty engines.

    (a)(1) Heavy-duty engines eligible for NOX, 
NOX plus NMHC, and particulate averaging, trading and banking 
programs are described in the applicable emission standards sections in 
this subpart. All heavy-duty engine families which include any engines 
labeled for use in clean-fuel vehicles as specified in 40 CFR part 88 
are not eligible for these programs. Participation in these programs is 
voluntary.
    (2)(i) Engine families with FELs exceeding the applicable standard 
shall obtain emission credits in a mass amount sufficient to address the 
shortfall. Credits may be obtained from averaging, trading, or banking, 
within the averaging set restrictions described in this section.
    (ii) Engine families with FELs below the applicable standard will 
have emission credits available to average, trade, bank or a combination 
thereof. Credits may not be used for averaging or trading to offset 
emissions that exceed an FEL. Credits may not be used to remedy an in-
use nonconformity determined by a Selective Enforcement Audit or by 
recall testing. However, credits may be used to allow subsequent 
production of engines for the family in question if the manufacturer 
elects to recertify to a higher FEL.
    (iii) Credits scheduled to expire in the earliest model year shall 
be used, prior to using other available credits, to offset emissions of 
engine families with FELs exceeding the applicable standard.
    (b) Participation in the NOX, NOX plus NMHC, 
and/or particulate averaging, trading, and banking programs shall be 
done as follows.
    (1) During certification, the manufacturer shall:
    (i) Declare its intent to include specific engine families in the 
averaging, trading and/or banking programs. Separate declarations are 
required for each program and for each pollutant (i.e., NOX, 
NOX plus NMHC, and particulate).
    (ii) Declare an FEL for each engine family participating in one or 
more of these three programs.
    (A) The FEL must be to the same level of significant digits as the 
emission standard (one-tenth of a gram per brake horsepower-hour for 
NOX, NOX plus NMHC, emissions and one-hundredth of 
a gram per brake horsepower-hour for particulate emissions).
    (B) In no case may the FEL exceed the upper limit prescribed in the 
section concerning the applicable heavy-duty engine NOX, 
NOX plus NMHC, and particulate emission standards.

[[Page 43]]

    (iii) Calculate the projected emission credits (positive or 
negative) based on quarterly production projections for each 
participating family and for each pollutant, using the applicable 
equation in paragraph (c) of this section and the applicable factors for 
the specific engine family.
    (iv)(A) Determine and state the source of the needed credits 
according to quarterly projected production for engine families 
requiring credits for certification.
    (B) State where the quarterly projected credits will be applied for 
engine families generating credits.
    (C) Credits may be obtained from or applied to only engine families 
within the same averaging set as described in paragraph (d) or (e) of 
this section. Credits available for averaging, trading, or banking as 
defined in Sec. 86.090-2, may be applied exclusively to a given engine 
family, or reserved as defined in Sec. 86.091-2.
    (2) Based on this information each manufacturer's certification 
application must demonstrate:
    (i) That at the end of model year production, each engine family has 
a net emissions credit balance of zero or more using the methodology in 
paragraph (c) of this section with any credits obtained from averaging, 
trading or banking.
    (ii) The source of the credits to be used to comply with the 
emission standard if the FEL exceeds the standard, or where credits will 
be applied if the FEL is less than the emission standard. In cases where 
credits are being obtained, each engine family involved must state 
specifically the source (manufacturer/engine family) of the credits 
being used. In cases where credits are being generated/supplied, each 
engine family involved must state specifically the designated use 
(manufacturer/engine family or reserved) of the credits involved. All 
such reports shall include all credits involved in averaging, trading or 
banking.
    (3) During the model year manufacturers must:
    (i) Monitor projected versus actual production to be certain that 
compliance with the emission standards is achieved at the end of the 
model year.
    (ii) Provide the end-of-model year reports required under 
Sec. 86.001-23.
    (iii) For manufacturers participating in emission credit trading, 
maintain the quarterly records required under Sec. 86.091-7(c)(8).
    (4) Projected credits based on information supplied in the 
certification application may be used to obtain a certificate of 
conformity. However, any such credits may be revoked based on review of 
end-of-model year reports, follow-up audits, and any other compliance 
measures deemed appropriate by the Administrator.
    (5) Compliance under averaging, banking, and trading will be 
determined at the end of the model year. Engine families without an 
adequate amount of NOX, NOX plus NMHC, and/or 
particulate emission credits will violate the conditions of the 
certificate of conformity. The certificates of conformity may be voided 
ab initio for engine families exceeding the emission standard.
    (6) If EPA or the manufacturer determines that a reporting error 
occurred on an end-of-year report previously submitted to EPA under this 
section, the manufacturer's credits and credit calculations will be 
recalculated. Erroneous positive credits will be void. Erroneous 
negative balances may be adjusted by EPA for retroactive use.
    (i) If EPA review of a manufacturer's end-of-year report indicates a 
credit shortfall, the manufacturer will be permitted to purchase the 
necessary credits to bring the credit balance for that engine family to 
zero, using the discount specified in paragraph (c)(1) of this section 
on the ratio of credits purchased for every credit needed to bring the 
balance to zero. If sufficient credits are not available to bring the 
credit balance for the family in question to zero, EPA may void the 
certificate for that engine family ab initio.
    (ii) If within 180 days of receipt of the manufacturer's end-of-year 
report, EPA review determines a reporting error in the manufacturer's 
favor (i.e., resulting in a positive credit balance) or if the 
manufacturer discovers such an error within 180 days of EPA receipt of 
the end-of-year report, the credits will be restored for use by the 
manufacturer.

[[Page 44]]

    (c)(1) For each participating engine family, NOX, 
NOX plus NMHC, and particulate emission credits (positive or 
negative) are to be calculated according to one of the following 
equations and rounded, in accordance with ASTM E29-93a, to the nearest 
one-tenth of a Megagram (Mg). Consistent units are to be used throughout 
the equation.
    (i) For determining credit need for all engine families and credit 
availability for engine families generating credits for averaging 
programs only:

Emission credits = (Std - FEL)  x  (CF)  x  (UL)  x  (Production)  x  
    (10-6)

    (ii) For determining credit availability for engine families 
generating credits for trading or banking programs:

Emission credits = (Std - FEL)  x  (CF)  x  (UL)  x  (Production)  x  
    (10-6)  x  (Discount)

    (iii) For purposes of the equations in paragraphs (c)(1) (i) and 
(ii) of this section:

Std = the current and applicable heavy-duty engine NOX, 
NOX plus NMHC, or particulate emission standard in grams per 
brake horsepower hour or grams per Megajoule.
FEL = the NOX, NOX plus NMHC, or particulate 
family emission limit for the engine family in grams per brake 
horsepower hour or grams per Megajoule.
CF = a transient cycle conversion factor in BHP-hr/mi or MJ/mi, as given 
in paragraph (c)(2) of this section.
UL = the useful life described in Sec. 86.004-2, or alternative life as 
described in paragraph (f) of Sec. 86.004-21, for the given engine 
family in miles.
Production = the number of engines produced for U.S. sales within the 
given engine family during the model year. Quarterly production 
projections are used for initial certification. Actual production is 
used for end-of-year compliance determination.
Discount = a one-time discount applied to all credits to be banked or 
traded within the model year generated. Except as otherwise allowed in 
paragraph (k) of this section, the discount applied here is 0.9 for 
diesel-cycle engines. The discount applied here is 0.8 for all Otto-
cycle engines. Banked credits traded in a subsequent model year will not 
be subject to an additional discount. Banked credits used in a 
subsequent model year's averaging program will not have the discount 
restored.

    (2)(i) The transient cycle conversion factor is the total 
(integrated) cycle brake horsepower-hour or Megajoules, divided by the 
equivalent mileage of the applicable transient cycle. For Otto-cycle 
heavy-duty engines, the equivalent mileage is 6.3 miles. For diesel 
heavy-duty engines, the equivalent mileage is 6.5 miles.
    (ii) When more than one configuration is chosen by EPA to be tested 
in the certification of an engine family (as described in Sec. 86.085-
24), the conversion factor used is to be based upon a production 
weighted average value of the configurations in an engine family to 
calculate the conversion factor.
    (d) Averaging sets for NOX and for NOX plus 
NMHC emission credits. The averaging and trading of NOX 
emission credits for Otto-cycle engines and NOX plus NMHC 
emission credits for diesel-cycle engines will only be allowed between 
heavy-duty engine families in the same averaging set. The averaging sets 
for the averaging and trading of NOX and NOX plus 
NMHC emission credits for heavy-duty engines are defined as follows:
    (1) For NOX credits from Otto-cycle heavy-duty engines:
    (i) Otto-cycle heavy-duty engines constitute an averaging set. 
Averaging and trading among all Otto-cycle heavy-duty engine families is 
allowed. There are no subclass restrictions.
    (ii) Gasoline-fueled heavy-duty vehicles certified under the 
provisions of Sec. 86.085-1(b) may not average or trade with gasoline-
fueled heavy-duty Otto-cycle engines, but may average or trade credits 
with light-duty trucks.
    (iii) The averaging and trading of NOX emission credits 
will only be allowed between heavy-duty engine families in the same 
regional category. Otto-cycle engines produced for sale in California 
constitute a separate regional category than engines produced for sale 
in the other 49 states. Banking

[[Page 45]]

and trading are not applicable to engines sold in California.
    (2) For NOX plus NMHC credits from diesel-cycle heavy-
duty engines:
    (i) Each of the three primary intended service classes for heavy-
duty diesel engines, as defined in Sec. 86.004-2, constitute an 
averaging set. Averaging and trading among all diesel-cycle engine 
families within the same primary service class is allowed.
    (ii) Urban buses are treated as members of the primary intended 
service class where they otherwise would fall.
    (e) Averaging sets for particulate emission credits. The averaging 
and trading of particulate emission credits will only be allowed between 
diesel cycle heavy-duty engine families in the same averaging set. The 
averaging sets for the averaging and trading of particulate emission 
credits for diesel cycle heavy-duty engines are defined as follows:
    (1) Engines intended for use in urban buses constitute a separate 
averaging set from all other heavy-duty engines. Averaging and trading 
between diesel cycle bus engine families is allowed.
    (2) For heavy-duty engines, exclusive of urban bus engines, each of 
the three primary intended service classes for heavy-duty diesel cycle 
engines, as defined in Sec. 86.004-2, constitute an averaging set. 
Averaging and trading between diesel-cycle engine families within the 
same primary service class is allowed.
    (3) Otto cycle engines may not participate in particulate averaging, 
trading, or banking.
    (f) Banking of NOX, NOX plus NMHC, and 
particulate emission credits. (1) Credit deposits. (i) NOX, 
NOX plus NMHC, and particulate emission credits may be banked 
from engine families produced in any model year.
    (ii) Manufacturers may bank credits only after the end of the model 
year and after actual credits have been reported to EPA in the end-of-
year report. During the model year and before submittal of the end-of-
year report, credits originally designated in the certification process 
for banking will be considered reserved and may be redesignated for 
trading or averaging.
    (2) Credit withdrawals. (i) After being generated, banked 
NOX credits shall be available for use within three model 
years following the model year in which they were generated. 
NOX credits from Otto-cycle HDE families not used within the 
period specified above shall be forfeited. NOX plus NMHC and 
particulate credits from diesel-cycle HDE families do not expire.
    (ii) Manufacturers withdrawing banked NOX, NOX 
plus NMHC, and/or particulate credits shall indicate so during 
certification and in their credit reports, as described in Sec. 86.091-
23.
    (3) Use of banked emission credits. The use of banked credits shall 
be within the averaging set and other restrictions described in 
paragraphs (d) and (e) of this section, and only for the following 
purposes:
    (i) Banked credits may be used in averaging, or in trading, or in 
any combination thereof, during the certification period. Credits 
declared for banking from the previous model year but not reported to 
EPA may also be used. However, if EPA finds that the reported credits 
can not be proven, they will be revoked and unavailable for use.
    (ii) Banked credits may not be used for NOX, 
NOX plus NMHC, or particulate averaging and trading to offset 
emissions that exceed an FEL. Banked credits may not be used to remedy 
an in-use nonconformity determined by a Selective Enforcement Audit or 
by recall testing. However, banked credits may be used for subsequent 
production of the engine family if the manufacturer elects to recertify 
to a higher FEL.
    (iii) Banked NOX credits from 2003 and prior may be used 
in place of NOX plus NMHC credits after 2003 provided that 
they are used in the correct averaging set and the NOX 
credits have not expired.
    (g)(1) For the purposes of paragraph (g) of this section, the 
following paragraphs assume NOX, NOX plus NMHC, 
and particulate nonconformance penalties (NCPs) will be available for 
the 2004 and later model year HDEs.
    (2) Engine families using NOX, NOX plus NMHC, 
and/or particulate NCPs but not involved in averaging:
    (i) May not generate NOX, NOX plus NMHC, or 
particulate credits for banking and trading.

[[Page 46]]

    (ii) May not use NOX, NOX plus NMHC, or 
particulate credits from banking and trading.
    (3) If a manufacturer has any engine family to which application of 
NCPs and banking and trading credits is desired, that family must be 
separated into two distinct families. One family, whose FEL equals the 
standard, must use NCPs only while the other, whose FEL does not equal 
the standard, must use credits only.
    (4) If a manufacturer has any engine family in a given averaging set 
which is using NOX, NOX plus NMHC, and/or 
particulate NCPs, none of that manufacturer's engine families in that 
averaging set may generate credits for banking and trading.
    (h) In the event of a negative credit balance in a trading 
situation, both the buyer and the seller would be liable.
    (i) Certification fuel used for credit generation must be of a type 
that is both available in use and expected to be used by the engine 
purchaser. Therefore, upon request by the Administrator, the engine 
manufacturer must provide information acceptable to the Administrator 
that the designated fuel is readily available commercially and would be 
used in customer service.
    (j) Credit apportionment. At the manufacturers option, credits 
generated from diesel-cycle heavy-duty engines under the provisions 
described in this section may be sold to or otherwise provided to the 
another party for use in programs other than the averaging, trading and 
banking program described in this section.
    (1) The manufacturer shall pre-identify two emission levels per 
engine family for the purposes of credit apportionment. One emission 
level shall be the FEL and the other shall be the level of the standard 
that the engine family is required to certify to under Sec. 86.004-11. 
For each engine family, the manufacturer may report engine sales in two 
categories, ``ABT-only credits'' and ``nonmanufacturer-owned credits''.
    (i) For engine sales reported as ``ABT-only credits'', the credits 
generated must be used solely in the ABT program described in this 
section.
    (ii) The engine manufacturer may declare a portion of engine sales 
``nonmanufacturer-owned credits'' and this portion of the credits 
generated between the standard and the FEL, based on the calculation in 
(c)(1) of this section, would belong to the engine purchaser. For ABT, 
the manufacturer may not generate any credits for the engine sales 
reported as ``nonmanufacturer-owned credits''. Engines reported as 
``nonmanufacturer-owned credits'' shall comply with the FEL and the 
requirements of the ABT program in all other respects.
    (2) Only manufacturer-owned credits reported as ``ABT-only credits'' 
shall be used in the averaging, trading, and banking provisions 
described in this section.
    (3) Credits shall not be double-counted. Credits used in the ABT 
program may not be provided to an engine purchaser for use in another 
program.
    (4) Manufacturers shall determine and state the number of engines 
sold as ``ABT-only credits'' and ``nonmanufacturer-owned credits'' in 
the end-of-model year reports required under Sec. 86.001-23.
    (k) Additional Flexibility. If a diesel-cycle engine family meets 
the conditions of either paragraph (k)(1) or (2) of this section, a 
Discount of 1.0 may be used in the trading and banking calculation, for 
both NOX plus NMHC and for particulate, described in 
paragraph (c)(1) of this section.
    (1) The engine family certifies with a certification level of 1.9 g/
bhp-hr NOX plus NMHC or lower for all diesel-cycle engine 
families.
    (2) All of the following must apply to the engine family:
    (i) Diesel-cycle engines only;
    (ii) 2004, 2005, and 2006 model years only;
    (iii) Must be an engine family using carry-over certification data 
from prior to model year 2004 where the NOX plus the HC 
certification level prior to model year 2004 is below the NOX 
plus NMHC or NOX plus NMHCE standard set forth in 
Sec. 86.004-11. Under this option, the NOX credits generated 
from this engine family prior to model year 2004 may be used as 
NOX plus NMHC credits.

be required to show the reasonable likelihood of such maintenance being 
performed in-use, and such showing shall be made prior to the 
performance of the maintenance on the durability data vehicle. Critical 
emission-related scheduled maintenance items which satisfy one of the 
conditions defined in paragraphs (b)(6)(ii) (A) through (F) of this 
section will be accepted as having a reasonable likelihood of the 
maintenance item being performed in-use.
    (A) Data are presented which establish for the Administrator a 
connection between emissions and vehicle performance such that as 
emissions increase due to lack of maintenance, vehicle performance will 
simultaneously deteriorate to a point unacceptable for typical driving.
    (B) Survey data are submitted which adequately demonstrate to the 
Administrator that, at an 80 percent confidence level, 80 percent of 
such engines already have this critical maintenance item performed in-
use at the recommended interval(s).
    (C) A clearly displayed visible signal system approved by the 
Administrator is installed to alert the vehicle driver that maintenance 
is due. A signal bearing the message ``maintenance needed'' or ``check 
engine'', or a similar message approved by the Administrator, shall be 
actuated at the appropriate mileage point or by component failure. This 
signal must be continuous while the engine is in operation and not be 
easily eliminated without performance of the required maintenance. 
Resetting the signal shall be a required step in the maintenance 
operation. The method for resetting the signal system shall be approved 
by the Administrator. For HDEs, the system must not be designed to 
deactivate upon the end of the useful life of the engine or thereafter.

[[Page 50]]

    (D) A manufacturer may desire to demonstrate through a survey that a 
critical maintenance item is likely to be performed without a visible 
signal on a maintenance item for which there is no prior in-use 
experience without the signal. To that end, the manufacturer may in a 
given model year market up to 200 randomly selected vehicles per 
critical emission-related maintenance item without such visible signals, 
and monitor the performance of the critical maintenance item by the 
owners to show compliance with paragraph (b)(6)(ii)(B) of this section. 
This option is restricted to two consecutive model years and may not be 
repeated until any previous survey has been completed. If the critical 
maintenance involves more than one engine family, the sample will be 
sales weighted to ensure that it is representative of all the families 
in question.
    (E) The manufacturer provides the maintenance free of charge, and 
clearly informs the customer that the maintenance is free in the 
instructions provided under Sec. 86.087-38.
    (F) Any other method which the Administrator approves as 
establishing a reasonable likelihood that the critical maintenance will 
be performed in-use.
    (iii) Visible signal systems used under paragraph (b)(6)(ii)(C) of 
this section are considered an element of design of the emission control 
system. Therefore, disabling, resetting, or otherwise rendering such 
signals inoperative without also performing the indicated maintenance 
procedure is a prohibited act under section 203(a)(3) of the Clean Air 
Act (42 U.S.C. 7522(a)(3)).

    (2) Each exhaust, evaporative and refueling emission standard (and 
family emission limits, as appropriate) of Sec. 86.004-9 applies to the 
emissions of vehicles for the appropriate useful life as defined in 
Secs. 86.098-2 and 86.004-9.

    (2) The applicable exhaust emission standards (or family emission 
limits, as appropriate) for Otto-cycle engines and for diesel-cycle 
engines apply to

[[Page 51]]

the emissions of engines for their useful life.
    (3) Since emission control efficiency generally decreases with the 
accumulation of service on the engine, deterioration factors will be 
used in combination with emission data engine test results as the basis 
for determining compliance with the standards.
    (4)(i) Paragraph (c)(4) of this section describes the procedure for 
determining compliance of an engine with emission standards (or family 
emission limits, as appropriate), based on deterioration factors 
supplied by the manufacturer. Deterioration factors shall be established 
using applicable emissions test procedures. NOX plus NMHC 
deterioration factors shall be established based on the sum of the 
pollutants. When establishing deterioration factors for NOX 
plus NMHC, a negative deterioration (emissions decrease from the 
official exhaust emissions test result) for one pollutant may not offset 
deterioration of the other pollutant. Where negative deterioration 
occurs for NOX and/or NMHC, the official exhaust emission 
test result shall be used for purposes of determining the NOX 
plus NMHC deterioration factor.
    (ii) Separate exhaust emission deterioration factors, determined 
from tests of engines, subsystems, or components conducted by the 
manufacturer, shall be supplied for each engine-system combination. For 
Otto-cycle engines, separate factors shall be established for transient 
NMHC (NMHCE), CO, NOX, NOX plus NMHC, and idle CO, 
for those engines utilizing aftertreatment technology (e.g., catalytic 
converters). For diesel-cycle engines, separate factors shall be 
established for transient NMHC (NMHCE), CO, NOX, 
NOX plus NMHC and exhaust particulate. For diesel-cycle smoke 
testing, separate factors shall also be established for the acceleration 
mode (designated as ``A''), the lugging mode (designated as ``B''), and 
peak opacity (designated as ``C'').
    (iii)(A) Paragraphs (c)(4)(iii)(A) (1) and (2) of this section apply 
to Otto-cycle HDEs.
    (1) Otto-cycle HDEs not utilizing aftertreatment technology (e.g., 
catalytic converters). For transient NMHC (NMHCE), CO, NOX, 
the official exhaust emission results for each emission data engine at 
the selected test point shall be adjusted by the addition of the 
appropriate deterioration factor. However, if the deterioration factor 
supplied by the manufacturer is less than zero, it shall be zero for the 
purposes of this paragraph.
    (2) Otto-cycle HDEs utilizing aftertreatment technology (e.g., 
catalytic converters). For transient NMHC (NMHCE), CO, NOX, 
and for idle CO, the official exhaust emission results for each emission 
data engine at the selected test point shall be adjusted by 
multiplication by the appropriate deterioration factor. However, if the 
deterioration factor supplied by the manufacturer is less than one, it 
shall be one for the purposes of this paragraph.
    (B) Paragraph (c)(4)(iii)(B) of this section applies to diesel-cycle 
HDEs.
    (1) Diesel-cycle HDEs not utilizing aftertreatment technology (e.g., 
particulate traps). For transient NMHC (NMHCE), CO, NOX, 
NOX plus NMHC, and exhaust particulate, the official exhaust 
emission results for each emission data engine at the selected test 
point shall be adjusted by the addition of the appropriate deterioration 
factor. However, if the deterioration factor supplied by the 
manufacturer is less than zero, it shall be zero for the purposes of 
this paragraph.
    (2) Diesel-cycle HDEs utilizing aftertreatment technology (e.g., 
particulate traps). For transient NMHC (NMHCE), CO, NOX, 
NOX plus NMHC, and exhaust particulate, the official exhaust 
emission results for each emission data engine at the selected test 
point shall be adjusted by multiplication by the appropriate 
deterioration factor. However, if the deterioration factor supplied by 
the manufacturer is less than one, it shall be one for the purposes of 
this paragraph.
    (3) Diesel-cycle HDEs only. For acceleration smoke (``A''), lugging 
smoke (``B''), and peak smoke (``C''), the official exhaust emission 
results for each emission data engine at the selected test point shall 
be adjusted by the addition of the appropriate deterioration factor. 
However, if the deterioration factor supplied by the manufacturer is 
less than zero, it shall be zero for the purposes of this paragraph.

[[Page 52]]

    (iv) The emission values to compare with the standards (or family 
emission limits, as appropriate) shall be the adjusted emission values 
of paragraph (c)(4)(iii) of this section, rounded to the same number of 
significant figures as contained in the applicable standard in 
accordance with ASTM E 29-93a (as referenced in Sec. 86.094-28 
(a)(4)(i)(B)(2)(ii)), for each emission data engine.
    (5) and (6) [Reserved]
    (7) Every test engine of an engine family must comply with all 
applicable standards (or family emission limits, as appropriate), as 
determined in paragraph (c)(4)(iv) of this section, before any engine in 
that family will be certified.
    (8) For the purposes of setting an NMHC plus NOx 
certification level or FEL for a diesel-fueled engine family, the 
manufacturer may use one of the following options for the determination 
of NMHC for an engine family. The manufacturer must declare which option 
is used in its application for certification of that engine family.
    (i) THC may be used in lieu of NMHC for the standards set forth in 
Sec. 86.004-11.
    (ii) The manufacturer may choose its own method to analyze methane 
with prior approval of the Administrator.
    (iii) The manufacturer may assume that two percent of the measured 
THC is methane (NMHC =0.98  x  THC).
    (d)(1) Paragraph (d) of this section applies to heavy-duty vehicles 
equipped with gasoline-fueled or methanol-fueled engines.
    (2) The applicable evaporative emission standards in this subpart 
apply to the emissions of vehicles for their useful life.
    (3)(i) For vehicles with a GVWR of up to 26,000 pounds, because it 
is expected that emission control efficiency will change during the 
useful life of the vehicle, an evaporative emission deterioration factor 
shall be determined from the testing described in Sec. 86.098-23(b)(3) 
for each evaporative emission family-evaporative emission control system 
combination to indicate the evaporative emission control system 
deterioration during the useful life of the vehicle (minimum 50,000 
miles). The factor shall be established to a minimum of two places to 
the right of the decimal.
    (ii) For vehicles with a GVWR of greater than 26,000 pounds, because 
it is expected that emission control efficiency will change during the 
useful life of the vehicle, each manufacturer's statement as required in 
Sec. 86.098-23(b)(4)(ii) shall include, in accordance with good 
engineering practice, consideration of control system deterioration.
    (4) The evaporative emission test results, if any, shall be adjusted 
by the addition of the appropriate deterioration factor, provided that 
if the deterioration factor as computed in paragraph (d)(3) of this 
section is less than zero, that deterioration factor shall be zero for 
the purposes of this paragraph.
    (5) The emission level to compare with the standard shall be the 
adjusted emission level of paragraph (d)(4) of this section. Before any 
emission value is compared with the standard, it shall be rounded, in 
accordance with ASTM E 29-93a (as referenced in Sec. 86.094-28 
(a)(4)(i)(B)(2)(ii)), to two significant figures. The rounded emission 
values may not exceed the standard.
    (6) Every test vehicle of an evaporative emission family must comply 
with the evaporative emission standard, as determined in paragraph 
(d)(5) of this section, before any vehicle in that family may be 
certified.
    (e) [Reserved]
    (f) through (g)(3) through [Reserved]. For guidance see Sec. 86.001-
28.
    (g)(4) Vehicles certified to the refueling emission standard under 
this provision shall not be counted in the sales percentage compliance 
determinations for the 2004, 2005 and subsequent model years.

Sec. 86.004-38  Maintenance instructions.

    Section 86.004-38 includes text that specifies requirements that 
differ from Sec. 86.094-38. Where a paragraph in Sec. 86.094-38 is 
identical and applicable to Sec. 86.004-38 this may be indicated by 
specifying the corresponding paragraph and the statement ``[Reserved]. 
For guidance see Sec. 86.094-38.''.
    (a) The manufacturer shall furnish or cause to be furnished to the 
purchaser of each new motor vehicle (or motor vehicle engine) subject to 
the standards prescribed in Sec. 86.099-8, Sec. 86.004-9, Sec. 86.004-
10, or Sec. 86.004-11, as applicable, written instructions for the 
proper maintenance and use of the vehicle (or engine), by the purchaser 
consistent with the provisions of Sec. 86.004-25, which establishes what 
scheduled maintenance the Administrator approves as being reasonable and 
necessary.
    (1) The maintenance instructions required by this section shall be 
in clear, and to the extent practicable, nontechnical language.
    (2) The maintenance instructions required by this section shall 
contain a general description of the documentation which the 
manufacturer will require from the ultimate purchaser or any subsequent 
purchaser as evidence of compliance with the instructions.
    (b) Instructions provided to purchasers under paragraph (a) of this 
section shall specify the performance of all scheduled maintenance 
performed by the manufacturer on certification durability vehicles and, 
in cases where the manufacturer performs less maintenance on 
certification durability vehicles than the allowed limit, may specify 
the performance of any scheduled maintenance allowed under Sec. 86.004-
25.
    (c) Scheduled emission-related maintenance in addition to that 
performed under Sec. 86.004-25(b) may only be recommended to offset the 
effects of abnormal in-use operating conditions, except as provided in 
paragraph (d) of this section. The manufacturer shall be required to 
demonstrate, subject to the approval of the Administrator, that such 
maintenance is reasonable and technologically necessary to assure the 
proper functioning of the emission control system. Such additional 
recommended maintenance shall be clearly differentiated, in a form 
approved by the Administrator, from that approved under Sec. 86.004-
25(b).
    (d) Inspections of emission-related parts or systems with 
instructions to replace, repair, clean, or adjust the parts or systems 
if necessary, are not considered to be items of scheduled maintenance 
which insure the proper functioning of the emission control system. Such 
inspections, and any recommended maintenance beyond that approved by the 
Administrator as reasonable and necessary under paragraphs (a), (b), and 
(c) of this section,

[[Page 56]]

may be included in the written instructions furnished to vehicle owners 
under paragraph (a) of this section: Provided, That such instructions 
clearly state, in a form approved by the Administrator, that the owner 
need not perform such inspections or recommended maintenance in order to 
maintain the emissions defect and emissions performance warranty or 
manufacturer recall liability.
    (e) The manufacturer may choose to include in such instructions an 
explanation of any distinction between the useful life specified on the 
label, and the emissions defect and emissions performance warranty 
period. The explanation must clearly state that the useful life period 
specified on the label represents the average period of use up to 
retirement or rebuild for the engine family represented by the engine 
used in the vehicle. An explanation of how the actual useful lives of 
engines used in various applications are expected to differ from the 
average useful life may be included. The explanation(s) shall be in 
clear, non-technical language that is understandable to the ultimate 
purchaser.
    (f) If approved by the Administrator, the instructions provided to 
purchasers under paragraph (a) of this section shall indicate what 
adjustments or modifications, if any, are necessary to allow the vehicle 
to meet applicable emission standards at elevations above 4,000 feet, or 
at elevations of 4,000 feet or less.
    (g) [Reserved]. For guidance see Sec. 86.094-38.
    (h) The manufacturer shall furnish or cause to be furnished to the 
purchaser of each new motor engine subject to the standards prescribed 
in Sec. 86.004-10 or Sec. 86.004-11, as applicable, the following:
    (1) Instructions for all maintenance needed after the end of the 
useful life of the engine for critical emissions-related components as 
provided in Sec. 86.004-25(b), including recommended practices for 
diagnosis, cleaning, adjustment, repair, and replacement of the 
component (or a statement that such component is maintenance free for 
the life of the engine) and instructions for accessing and responding to 
any emissions-related diagnostic codes that may be stored in on-board 
monitoring systems;
    (2) A copy of the engine rebuild provisions contained in 
Sec. 86.004-40.
[62 FR 54728, Oct. 21, 1997]



Sec. 86.004-40  Heavy-duty engine rebuilding practices.

    The provisions of this section are applicable to engines subject to 
the standards prescribed in Sec. 86.004-10 or Sec. 86.004-11 and are 
applicable to the process of engine rebuilding (or rebuilding a portion 
of an engine or engine system). The process of engine rebuilding 
generally includes disassembly, replacement of multiple parts due to 
wear, and reassembly, and also may include the removal of the engine 
from the vehicle and other acts associated with rebuilding an engine. 
Any deviation from the provisions contained in this section is a 
prohibited act under section 203(a)(3) of the Clean Air Act (42 U.S.C. 
7522(a)(3)).
    (a) When rebuilding an engine, portions of an engine, or an engine 
system, there must be a reasonable technical basis for knowing that the 
resultant engine is equivalent, from an emissions standpoint, to a 
certified configuration (i.e., tolerances, calibrations, specifications) 
and the model year(s) of the resulting engine configuration must be 
identified. A reasonable basis would exist if:
    (1) Parts installed, whether the parts are new, used, or rebuilt, 
are such that a person familiar with the design and function of motor 
vehicle engines would reasonably believe that the parts perform the same 
function with respect to emissions control as the original parts; and
    (2) Any parameter adjustment or design element change is made only:
    (i) In accordance with the original engine manufacturer's 
instructions; or
    (ii) Where data or other reasonable technical basis exists that such 
parameter adjustment or design element change, when performed on the 
engine or similar engines, is not expected to adversely affect in-use 
emissions.
    (b) When an engine is being rebuilt and remains installed or is 
reinstalled in the same vehicle, it must be rebuilt to a configuration 
of the same or later model year as the original engine.

[[Page 57]]

When an engine is being replaced, the replacement engine must be an 
engine of (or rebuilt to) a configuration of the same or later model 
year as the original engine.
    (c) At time of rebuild, emissions-related codes or signals from on-
board monitoring systems may not be erased or reset without diagnosing 
and responding appropriately to the diagnostic codes, regardless of 
whether the systems are installed to satisfy requirements in 
Sec. 86.004-25 or for other reasons and regardless of form or interface. 
Diagnostic systems must be free of all such codes when the rebuilt 
engine is returned to service. Such signals may not be rendered 
inoperative during the rebuilding process.
    (d) When conducting a rebuild without removing the engine from the 
vehicle, or during the installation of a rebuilt engine, all critical 
emissions-related components listed in Sec. 86.004-25(b) not otherwise 
addressed by paragraphs (a) through (c) of this section must be checked 
and cleaned, adjusted, repaired, or replaced as necessary, following 
manufacturer recommended practices.
    (e) Records shall be kept by parties conducting activities included 
in paragraphs (a) through (d) of this section. The records shall include 
at minimum the mileage and/or hours at time of rebuild, a listing of 
work performed on the engine and emissions-related control components 
including a listing of parts and components used, engine parameter 
adjustments, emissions-related codes or signals responded to and reset, 
and work performed under paragraph (d) of this section.
    (1) Parties may keep records in whatever format or system they 
choose as long as the records are understandable to an EPA enforcement 
officer or can be otherwise provided to an EPA enforcement officer in an 
understandable format when requested.
    (2) Parties are not required to keep records of information that is 
not reasonably available through normal business practices including 
information on activities not conducted by themselves or information 
that they cannot reasonably access.
    (3) Parties may keep records of their rebuilding practices for an 
engine family rather than on each individual engine rebuilt in cases 
where those rebuild practices are followed routinely.
    (4) Records must be kept for a minimum of two years after the engine 
is rebuilt.

Sec. 86.079-31  Separate certification.

    Where possible a manufacturer should include in a single application 
for certification all vehicles (or engines) for which certification is 
required. A manufacturer may, however, choose to apply separately for 
certification of part of his product line. The selection of test 
vehicles (or test engines) and the computation of test results will be 
determined separately for each application.
[42 FR 45149, Sept. 8, 1977]



Sec. 86.079-32  Addition of a vehicle or engine after certification.

    (a) If a manufacturer proposes to add to his product line a vehicle 
(or engine) of the same engine-system combination as vehicles (or 
engines) previously certified but which was not described in the 
application for certification when the test vehicle(s) (or test 
engine(s)) representing other vehicles (or engines) of that combination 
was certified, he shall notify the Administrator. Such notification 
shall be in advance of the addition unless the manufacturer elects to 
follow the procedure described in Sec. 86.079-34. This notification 
shall include a full description of the vehicle (or engine) to be added.
    (b) The Administrator may require the manufacturer to perform such 
tests on the test vehicle(s) (or test engine(s)) representing the 
vehicle (or engine) to be added which would have been required if the 
vehicle (or engine) had been included in the original application for 
certification.
    (c) If, after a review of the test reports and data submitted by the 
manufacturer, and data derived from any testing conducted under 
Sec. 86.079-29, the Administrator determines that the test vehicle(s) or 
test engine(s) meets all

[[Page 60]]

applicable standards, the appropriate certificate will be amended 
accordingly. If the Administrator determines that the test vehicle(s) 
(or test engine(s)) does not meet applicable standards, he will proceed 
under Sec. 86.079-30(b).

giving a full description of the change. Such notification shall be in 
advance of the change unless the manufacturer elects to follow the 
procedure described in Sec. 86.079-34.
    (b) Based upon the description of the change, and data derived from 
such testing as the Administrator may require or conduct. The 
Administrator will determine whether the vehicle (or engine), as 
modified, would still be covered by the certificate of conformity then 
in effect.
    (c) If the Administrator determines that the outstanding certificate 
would cover the modified vehicles (or engines) he will notify the 
manufacturer in writing. Except as provided in Sec. 86.079-34 the change 
may not be put into effect prior to the manufacturer's receiving this 
notification. If the Administrator determines that the modified vehicles 
(or engines) would not be covered by the certificate then in effect, the 
modified vehicles (or engines) shall be treated as additions to the 
product line subject to Sec. 86.079-32.

change all vehicles (or engines) effected by the addition or change will 
still meet the applicable emission standards. Such notification shall 
include a full description of the addition or change and any supporting 
documentation the manufacturer may desire to include to support the 
manufacturer's determination. The manufacturer's determination that the 
addition or change does not cause noncompliance shall be based on an 
engineering evaluation of the addition or change and/or testing.
    (b) The Administrator may require that additional emission testing 
be performed to support the manufacturers original determination 
submitted in paragraph (a) of this section. If additional testing is 
required the Administrator shall proceed as in Sec. 86.079-32 (b) and 
(c) or Sec. 86.079-33 (b) and (c) as appropriate. Additional test data, 
if requested, must be provided within 30 days of the request or the 
manufacturer must rescind the addition or change immediately. The 
Administrator may grant additional time to

[[Page 66]]

complete testing. If based on this additional testing or any other 
information, the Administrator determines that the vehicles effected by 
the addition or change do not meet the applicable standards the 
Administrator will notify the manufacturer to rescind the addition or 
change immediately upon receipt of the notification.
    (c) Election to produce vehicles (or engines) under this section 
will be deemed to be a consent to recall all vehicles (or engines) which 
the Administrator determines under Sec. 86.079-32(c) do not meet 
applicable standards, and to cause such nonconformity to be remedied at 
no expense to the owner.

Sec. 86.084-4  Section numbering; construction.

    (a) Section numbering. (1) The model year of initial applicability 
is indicated by the last two digits of the 5-digit group. A section 
remains in effect for subsequent model years until it is superseded. The 
number following the hyphen designates what previous section is replaced 
by a future regulation.
    Examples:  Section 86.077-6 applies to the 1977 and subsequent model 
years until superseded. If a Sec. 86.080-6 is promulgated it would take 
effect with the 1980 model year; Sec. 86.077-6 would not apply after the 
1979 model year. Section 86.077-10 would be replaced by Sec. 86.078-10 
beginning with the 1978 model year.
    (2) Where a section still in effect references a section that has 
been superseded, the reference shall be interpreted to mean the 
superseding section.
    (b) A section reference without a model year suffix refers to the 
section applicable for the appropriate model year.
    (c) Construction. Except where indicated, the language in this 
subpart applies to both vehicles and engines. In many instances, 
language referring to engines is enclosed in parentheses and immediately 
follows the language discussing vehicles.

    (a) [Reserved]
    (b) Light-duty trucks and heavy-duty engines. (1) All of the 
recordkeeping and reporting requirements in this subpart for which 1984 
is the first model year of implementation will automatically expire on 
December 31, 1988, unless the Administrator acts to retain them.
    (2) If the Administrator determines that the reporting and 
recordkeeping requirements should be retained she/he will also at that 
time establish the subsequent date of expiration, which will not be 
later than December 31, 1993.

be counted in calculating the total sales of the manufacturer. The 
small-volume manufacturer's certification procedures are described in 
Sec. 86.084-14.
    (f) Optional Procedures for Determining Exhaust Opacity. (1) The 
provisions of subpart I apply to tests which are performed by the 
Administrator, and optionally, by the manufacturer.
    (2) Measurement procedures, other than that described in subpart I, 
may be used by the manufacturer provided the manufacturer satisfies the 
requirements of Sec. 86.085-23(f).
    (3) When a manufacturer chooses to use an alternative measurement 
procedure it has the responsibility to determine whether the results 
obtained by the procedure will correlate with the results which would be 
obtained from the measurement procedure in subpart I. Consequently, the 
Administrator will not routinely approve or disapprove any alternative 
opacity measurement procedure or any associated correlation data which 
the manufacturer elects to use to satisfy the data requirements of 
subpart I.
    (4) If a confirmatory test(s) is performed and the results indicate 
there is a systematic problem suggesting that the data generated under 
an optional alternative measurement procedure do not adequately 
correlate with subpart I data, EPA may require that all certificates of 
conformity not already issued be based on data from subpart I 
procedures.

Sec. 86.085-2  Definitions.

    The definitions of Sec. 86.084-2 remain effective. The definitions 
listed in this section apply beginning with the 1985 model year.
    Abnormally treated vehicle, any diesel light-duty vehicle or diesel 
light-duty truck that is operated for less than five miles in a 30 day 
period immediately prior to conducting a particulate emissions test.
    Composite particulate standard, for a manufacturer which elects to 
average diesel light-duty vehicles and diesel light-duty trucks together 
in the particulate averaging program, means that standard calculated 
according to the following equation and rounded to the nearest hundredth 
gram-per-mile:
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR06OC93.004

Where:
PRODLDV represents the manufacturer's total diesel light-duty 
          vehicle production for those engine families being included in 
          the average for a given model year.
STDLDV represents the light-duty vehicle particulate 
          standard.
PRODLDT represents the manufacturer's total diesel light-duty 
          truck production for those engine families being included in 
          the average for a given model year.
STDLDT represents the light-duty truck particulate standard.

    Family particulate emission limit means the diesel particulate 
emission level to which an engine family is certified in the particulate 
averaging program, expressed to an accuracy of one hundredth gram-per-
mile.
    Incomplete gasoline-fueled heavy-duty vehicle means any gasoline-
fueled heavy-duty vehicle which does not have the primary load-carrying 
device, or passenger compartment, or engine compartment or fuel system 
attached.
    Production-weighted average means the manufacturer's production-
weighted average particulate emission level, for certification purposes, 
of all of its diesel engine families included in the particulate 
averaging program. It is calculated at the end of the model year by 
multiplying each family particulate emission limit by its respective 
production, summing these terms, and dividing the sum by the total 
production of the effected families. Those vehicles

[[Page 70]]

produced for sale in California or at high altitude shall each be 
averaged separately from those produced for sale in any other area.
    Primary intended service class means:
    (a) The primary service application group for which a heavy-duty 
diesel engine in designed and marketed, as determined by the 
manufacturer. The primary intended service classes are designated as 
light, medium, and heavy heavy-duty diesel engines. The determination is 
based on factors such as vehicle GVW, vehicle usage and operating 
patterns, other vehicle design characteristics, engine horsepower, and 
other engine design and operating characteristics.
    (1) Light heavy-duty diesel engines usually are non-sleeved and not 
designed for rebuild; their rated horsepower generally ranges from 70 to 
170. Vehicle body types in this group might include any heavy-duty 
vehicle built for a light-duty truck chassis, van trucks, multi-stop 
vans, recreational vehicles, and some single axle straight trucks. 
Typical applications would include personal transportation, light-load 
commercial hauling and delivery, passenger service, agriculture, and 
construction. The GVWR of these vehicles is normally less than 19,500 
lbs.
    (2) Medium heavy-duty diesel engines may be sleeved or non-sleeved 
and may be designed for rebuild. Rated horsepower generally ranges from 
170 to 250. Vehicle body types in this group would typically include 
school buses, tandem axle straight trucks, city tractors, and a variety 
of special purpose vehicles such as small dump trucks, and trash 
compactor trucks. Typical applications would include commercial short 
haul and intra-city delivery and pickup. Engines in this group are 
normally used in vehicles whose GVWR varies from 19,500-33,000 lbs.
    (3) Heavy heavy-duty diesel engines are sleeved and designed for 
multiple rebuilds. Their rated horsepower generally exceeds 250. 
Vehicles in this group are normally tractors, trucks, and buses used in 
inter-city, long-haul applications. These vehicles normally exceed 
33,000 lbs GVWR.
    Useful life means:
    (a) For light-duty vehicles a period of use of 5 years or 50,000 
miles, whichever first occurs.
    (b) For a light-duty truck engine family, a period of use of 11 
years or 120,000 miles, whichever occurs first.
    (c) For a gasoline-fueled heavy-duty engine family (and in the case 
of evaporative emission regulations, for gasoline-fueled heavy-duty 
vehicles), a period of use of 8 years or 110,000 miles, whichever first 
occurs.
    (d) For a diesel heavy-duty engine family:
    (1) For light heavy-duty diesel engines, a period of use of 8 years 
or 110,000 miles, whichever first occurs.
    (2) For medium heavy-duty diesel engines, a period of use of 8 years 
or 185,000 miles, whichever first occurs.
    (3) For heavy heavy-duty diesel engines, a period of use of 8 years 
or 290,000 miles, whichever first occurs.
    (e) As an option for both light-duty truck and heavy-duty engine 
families, an alternative useful life period assigned by the 
Administrator under the provisions of paragraph (f) of Sec. 86.085-21.
    (f) The useful-life period for purposes of the emissions defect 
warranty and emissions performance warranty shall be a period of 5 
years/50,000 miles whichever first occurs, for light-duty trucks, 
gasoline heavy-duty engines, and light heavy-duty diesel engines. For 
all other heavy-duty diesel engines the aforementioned period is 5 
years/100,000 miles, whichever first occurs. However, in no case may 
this period be less than the manufacturer's basic mechanical warranty 
period for the engine family.

Sec. 86.085-13  Alternative Durability Program.

    (a) The procedures of the Alternative Durability Program are 
optional. Manufacturers may use these optional procedures to determine 
deterioration factors instead of using the procedures that this subpart 
otherwise requires.
    (b) The optional procedures of the Alternative Durability Program 
apply only to light-duty vehicles and light-duty trucks, and are 
effective for the

[[Page 71]]

1985 and later model years. All manufacturers of these vehicles are 
eligible to participate in this program.
    (c) For engine families subject to the procedures of the Alternative 
Durability Program, the manufacturer shall submit deterioration factors 
to the Administrator for approval to use them for certification. The 
Administrator shall approve the use of deterioriation factors that:
    (1) The manufacturer attests are representative of the durability 
performance of its vehicles in actual field use when maintained 
according to the manufacturer's maintenance instructions (as limited 
under Sec. 86.084-25(a)), and
    (2) Are equal to or greater than the deterioration factors that EPA 
determines under paragraph (d) of this section.
    (d) EPA shall determine minimum deterioration factors for engine 
families subject to the Alternative Durability Program. This 
determination shall be based on a procedure of grouping engine families 
(see Sec. 86.085-24(a)) in order to use historical certification data to 
determine deterioration factors for each engine family group. The 
historical data shall be updated yearly through the testing of 
production durability-data vehicles. Test vehicle requirements under 
these procedures are contained in Sec. 86.085-24(h) and compliance 
requirements are contained in Sec. 86.085-28 (a)(5) and (b)(5).
    (e) Request Procedures. (1) A manufacturer wishing to participate in 
the Alternative Durability Program must submit to the Administrator, for 
each model year, a written request describing the engine families that 
the manufacturer elects to be included in the program.
    (2) The Administrator may declare ineligible any engine family for 
which the Administrator determines there is unreasonable risk in 
determining a deterioration factor using the methods of the Alternative 
Durability Program. Furthermore, the Administrator may limit the number 
of engine families within the manufacturer's product line that are 
eligible for the Alternative Durability Program.
    (3) Upon approval of the manufacturer's request to participate, the 
Administrator and the manufacturer may enter into a written agreement 
prescribing the terms and conditions of the program. This agreement 
shall be equitable as compared to agreements entered into with other 
manufacturers. The agreement shall specify the following:
    (i) The engine families to be included in the program and the engine 
family groups that have been established by the provisions of 
Sec. 86.085-24(a) (8) and (9).
    (ii) The procedures for the selection of production durability-data 
vehicles specified under the provisions of Sec. 86.085-24(h).
    (iii) The procedures for the determination of minimum exhaust 
emission deterioration factors for each engine family group.
    (f) Withdrawal from Alternative Durability Program. (1) Subject to 
the conditions of the following paragraphs, a manufacturer may, at any 
time, withdraw all of its product line or separate engine family groups 
from this program. Only entire engine family groups may be withdrawn.
    (2) Once any engine family in an engine family group is certified 
using deterioration factors determined in the Alternative Durability 
Program, the manufacturer shall operate and test the production 
durability-data vehicles specified in Sec. 86.085-24(h) in accordance 
with the procedures of this part.
    (3) The Administrator shall notify the manufacturer if a 
nonconformity of a category of vehicles within the engine family group 
is indicated by the production durability data. For the purpose of this 
paragraph, a nonconformity is determined to exist if:
    (i) Any emission-data vehicle within an engine family of the model 
year most recently certified under the Alternative Durability Program is 
projected to exceed an emission standard by applying deterioration 
factors generated by a production durability-data vehicle within the 
same engine family, or
    (ii) Any of the most recent model year's production durability-data 
vehicle configurations tested under paragraph (f)(2) of this section 
line crosses as defined in Sec. 86.085-28(a)(5)(ii)(C). For the purpose 
of this paragraph, data

[[Page 72]]

from identical vehicles will be averaged as under Sec. 86.085-
28(a)(4)(i) (A) and (B).
    (4) If the Administrator notifies a manufacturer of such a 
nonconformity, the manufacturer shall submit, by a date specified by the 
Administrator, a plan to remedy the nonconformity which is acceptable to 
the Director, Office of Mobile Sources. For the purpose of this 
paragraph, the term ``remedy the nonconformity'' will have the same 
meaning as it does when it appears in section 207(c)(1) of the Clean Air 
Act.
    (5) The manufacturer shall comply with the terms of the remedial 
plan approved by the Director, Office of Mobile Sources.
    (6) If a manufacturer does not comply with the requirements of 
paragraph (f) (2), (4), or (5) of this section, the Administrator may 
deem the certificate of conformity for the affected engine families void 
ab initio.
[48 FR 22548, May 19, 1983]



Sec. 86.085-20  Incomplete vehicles, classification.

    (a) An incomplete truck less than 8,500 pounds gross vehicle weight 
rating shall be classified by the manufacturer as a light-duty truck or 
as a heavy-duty vehicle. Incomplete light-duty trucks shall be described 
in the manufacturer's application for certification. The frontal area 
and curb weight used for certification purposes shall be specified on 
the label required in Sec. 86.085-35(d). Incomplete heavy-duty trucks 
must be labeled as required in Sec. 86.085-35(e) and Sec. 86.085-35(g).
    (b) [Reserved]

Sec. 86.085-37  Production vehicles and engines.

    (a) Any manufacturer obtaining certification under this part shall 
supply to the Administrator, upon request, a reasonable number of 
production vehicles (or engines) selected by the Administrator which are 
representative of the engines, emission control systems, fuel systems, 
and transmission offered and typical of production models available for 
sale under the certificate. These vehicles (or engines) shall be 
supplied for testing at such time and place and for such reasonable 
periods as the Administrator may require. Heavy-duty engines supplied 
under this paragraph may be required to be mounted in chassis and 
appropriately equipped for operation on a chassis dynamometer.
    (b)(1) Any manufacturer of light-duty vehicles or light-duty trucks 
obtaining certification under this part shall notify the Administrator, 
on a yearly basis, of the number of vehicles domestically produced for 
sale in the United States and the number of vehicles produced and 
imported for sale in the United States during the preceding year. Such 
information shall also include the number of vehicles produced for sale 
pursuant to Sec. 88.204-94(b) of this chapter. A manufacturer may elect 
to provide this information every 60 days instead of yearly by combining 
it with the notification required under Sec. 86.079-36. The notification 
must be submitted 30 days after the close of the reporting period. A 
manufacturer may combine the information required under Sec. 86.1712(b) 
with the information included in paragraphs (b)(1) (i) through (iv) of 
this section into the report required under this section. The vehicle 
production information required shall be submitted as follows:

[[Page 74]]

maintenance and use of the vehicle (or engine), by the purchaser 
consistent with the provisions of Sec. 86.087-25, which establishes what 
scheduled maintenance the Administrator approves as being reasonable and 
necessary. For light-duty vehicle manufacturers optionally complying 
with Sec. 86.087-25(a) for the 1987 model year, the Administrator 
approves any scheduled maintenance allowed by Sec. 86.087-25(a) as being 
reasonable and necessary.
    (1) The maintenance instructions required by this section shall be 
in clear, and to the extent practicable, nontechnical language.
    (2) The maintenance instructions required by this section shall 
contain a general description of the documentation which the 
manufacturer will require from the ultimate purchaser or any subsequent 
purchaser as evidence of compliance with the instructions.
    (b) Instructions provided to purchasers under paragraph (a) of this 
section shall specify the performance of all scheduled maintenance 
performed by the manufacturer on certification durability vehicles and, 
in cases where the manufacturer performs less maintenance on 
certification durability vehicles than the allowed limit, may specify 
the performance of any scheduled maintenance allowed under Sec. 86.087-
25 (or under Sec. 86.085-25(a), for light-duty vehicle families 
optionally complying with that section for the 1987 model year).
    (c) Scheduled emission-related maintenance in addition to that 
performed under Sec. 86.087-25(b) may only be recommended to offset the 
effects of abnormal in-use operating conditions, except as provided in 
paragraph (d) of this section. The manufacturer shall be required to 
demonstrate, subject to the approval of the Administrator, that such 
maintenance is reasonable and technologically necessary to assure the 
proper functioning of the emission control system. Such additional 
recommended maintenance shall be clearly differentiated, in a form 
approved by the Administrator, from that approved under Sec. 86.087-
25(b).
    (d) Inspections of emission-related parts or systems with 
instructions to replace, repair, clean, or adjust the parts or systems 
if necessary, are not considered to be items of scheduled maintenance 
which insure the proper functioning of the emission control system. Such 
inspections, and any recommended maintenance beyond that approved by the 
Administrator as reasonable and necessary under paragraphs (a), (b), and 
(c) of this section, may be included in the written instructions 
furnished to vehicle owners under paragraph (a) of this section: 
Provided, That such instructions clearly state, in a form approved by 
the Administrator, that the owner need not perform such inspections or 
recommended maintenance in order to maintain the emission warranty or 
manufacturer recall liability.
    (e) If the vehicle has been granted an alternative useful life 
period under the provisions of Sec. 86.087-21(f), the manufacturer may 
choose to include in such instructions an explanation of the distinction 
between the alternative useful life specified on the label, and the 
emissions defect and emissions performance warranty period. The 
explanation must clearly state that the useful life period specified on 
the label represents the average period of use up to retirement or 
rebuild for the engine family represented by the engine used in the 
vehicle. An explanation of how the actual useful lives of engines used 
in various applications are expected to differ from the average useful 
life may be included. The explanation(s) shall be in clear, non-
technical language that is understandable to the ultimate purchaser.
    (f) If approved by the Administrator, the instructions provided to 
purchasers under paragraph (a) of this section shall indicate what 
adjustments or modifications, if any, are necessary to allow the vehicle 
to meet applicable emission standards at elevations above 4,000 feet, or 
at elevations of 4,000 feet or less.

    Critical emission-related components are those components which are 
designed primarily for emission control, or whose failure may result in 
a significant increase in emissions accompanied by no significant 
impairment (or perhaps even an improvement) in performance, 
driveability, and/or fuel economy as determined by the Administrator.
    Critical emission-related maintenance means that maintenance to be 
performed on critical emission-related components.
    Emission-related maintenance means that maintenance which does 
substantially affect emissions or which is likely to affect the 
emissions deterioration of the vehicle or engine during normal in-use 
operation, even if the maintenance is performed at some time other than 
that which is recommended.
    Family NOX emission limit means the NOX 
emission level to which an engine family is certified in the light-duty 
truck NOX averaging program, expressed to one-tenth of a gram

effect on the emissions deterioration of the vehicle or engine during 
normal in-use operation once the maintenance is performed.
    Production-weighted NOX average means the manufacturer's 
production-weighted average NOX emission level, for 
certification purposes, of all of its light-duty truck engine families 
included in the NOX averaging program. It is calculated at 
the end of the model year by multiplying each family NOX 
emission limit by its respective production, summing those terms, and 
dividing the sum by the total production of the effected families. Those 
vehicles produced for sale in California or at high altitude shall each 
be averaged separately from those produced for sale in any other area.
    Production-weighted particulate average means the manufacturer's 
production-weighted average particulate emission level, for 
certification purposes, of all of its diesel engine families included in 
the particulate averaging program. It is calculated at the end of the 
model year by multiplying each family particulate emission limit by its 
respective production, summing those terms, and dividing the sum by the 
total production of the effected families. Those vehicles produced for 
sale in California or at high altitude shall each be averaged separately 
from those produced for sale in any other area.

Sec. 86.090-1  General applicability.

    (a) The provisions of this subpart apply to: 1990 and later model 
year new Otto-cycle and diesel light-duty vehicles; 1990 and later model 
year new Otto-cycle and diesel light-duty trucks; and, 1990 and later 
model year new Otto-cycle and diesel heavy-duty engines.
    (b) Optional applicability. A manufacturer may request to certify 
any heavy-duty vehicle of 10,000 pounds Gross Vehicle Weight Rating or 
less to the light-duty truck provisions. Heavy-duty engine or vehicle 
provisions do not apply to such a vehicle.
    (c) [Reserved]
    (d) Alternative Durability Program. For 1990 and later model year 
light-duty vehicles and light-duty trucks, a manufacturer may elect to 
participate in the Alternative Durability Program. This optional program 
provides an alternative method of determining exhaust emission control 
system durability. The general procedures and a description of the 
programs are contained in Sec. 86.085-13 and specific provisions on test 
vehicles and compliance procedures are contained in Sec. 86.085-24 and 
Sec. 86.088-28 respectively.
    (e) Small-Volume Manufacturers. Special certification procedures are 
available for any manufacturer whose projected combined U.S. sales of 
light-duty vehicles, light-duty trucks, and heavy-duty engines in its 
product line are fewer than 10,000 units for the model year in which the 
manufacturer seeks certification. In order to certify its product line 
under these optional procedures, the small-volume manufacturer must 
first obtain the Administrator's approval. Vehicles produced at 
facilities leased, operated, controlled, supervised, or is ten percent 
or greater part owned by the manufacturer shall be counted in 
calculating the total sales of the manufacturer. The small-volume 
manufacturer's certification procedures are described in Sec. 86.090-14.
    (f) Optional Procedures for Determining Exhaust Opacity. (1) The 
provisions of subpart I apply to tests which are performed by the 
Administrator, and optionally, by the manufacturer.
    (2) Measurement procedures, other than that described in subpart I, 
may be used by the manufacturer provided the manufacturer satisfies the 
requirements of Sec. 86.090-23(f).
    (3) When a manufacturer chooses to use an alternative measurement 
procedure it has the responsibility to determine whether the results 
obtained by the procedure will correlate with the results which would be 
obtained from the measurement procedure in subpart I. Consequently, the 
Administrator will not routinely approve or disapprove any alternative 
opacity measurement procedure or any associated correlation data which 
the manufacturer elects to use to satisfy the data requirements of 
subpart I.
    (4) If a confirmatory test(s) is performed and the results indicate 
there is a systematic problem suggesting that the data generated under 
an optional alternative measurement procedure do not adequately 
correlate with subpart I data, EPA may require that all certificates of 
conformity not already issued be based on data from subpart I 
procedures.

Sec. 86.090-2  Definitions.

    The definitions in Sec. 86.088-2 remain effective. The definitions 
in this section apply beginning with the 1990 model year.
    Averaging for heavy-duty engines means the exchange of 
NOX and particulate emission credits among engine families 
within a given manufacturer's product line.
    Averaging set means a subcategory of heavy-duty engines within which 
engine families can average and trade emission credits with one other.
    Banking means the retention of heavy-duty engine NOX and 
particulate emission credits, by the manufacturer generating the 
emission credits, for use in future model year certification programs as 
permitted by regulation.

[[Page 78]]

    Composite particulate standard, for a manufacturer which elects to 
average light-duty vehicles and light-duty trucks together in either the 
petroleum-fueled or methanol-fueled light-duty particulate averaging 
program, means that standards calculated using the following equation 
and rounded to the nearest one-hundredth (0.01) of a gram per mile:
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR06OC93.007

Where:
PRODLDV represents the manufacturer's total petroleum-fueled 
          diesel or methanol-fueled diesel light-duty vehicle production 
          for those engine families being included in the appropriate 
          average for a given model year.
STDLDV represents the light-duty vehicle particulate 
          standard.
PRODLDT represents the manufacturer's total petroleum-fueled 
          diesel or methanol-fueled diesel light-duty truck production 
          for those engine families being included in the appropriate 
          average for a given model year.
STDLDT represents the light-duty truck particulate standard.

    Dedicated vehicle (or engine) means any motor vehicle (or motor 
vehicle engine) engineered and designed to be operated using a single 
fuel. Flexible fuel vehicles and multi-fuel vehicles are not dedicated 
vehicles.
    Diesel means type of engine with operating characteristics 
significantly similar to the theoretical Diesel combustion cycle. The 
non-use of a throttle during normal operation is indicative of a diesel 
engine.
    Dual fuel vehicle (or engine) means any motor vehicle (or motor 
vehicle engine) engineered and designed to be operated on two different 
fuels, but not on a mixture of fuels.
    Emission credits mean the amount of emission reductions or 
exceedances, by a heavy-duty engine family, below or above the emission 
standard, respectively. Emission credits below the standard are 
considered as ``positive credits,'' while emission credits above the 
standard are considered as ``negative credits.'' In addition, 
``projected credits'' refer to emission credits based on the projected 
U.S. production volume of the engine family. ``Reserved credits'' are 
emission credits generated within a model year waiting to be reported to 
EPA at the end of the model year. ``Actual credits'' refer to emission 
credits based on actual U.S. production volumes as contained in the end-
of-year reports submitted to EPA. Some or all of these credits may be 
revoked if EPA review of the end of year reports or any subsequent audit 
actions uncover problems or errors.
    Family emission limit (FEL) means an emission level declared by the 
manufacturer which serves in lieu of an emission standard for 
certification purposes in any of the averaging, trading, or banking 
programs. FELs must be expressed to the same number of decimal places as 
the applicable emission standard. The FEL for an engine family using 
NOX or particulate NCPs must equal the value of the current 
NOX or particulate emission standard.
    Flexible fuel vehicle (or engine) means any motor vehicle (or motor 
vehicle engine) engineered and designed to be operated on any mixture of 
two or more different fuels.
    Methanol-fueled means any motor vehicle or motor vehicle engine that 
is engineered and designed to be operated using methanol fuel (i.e., a 
fuel that contains at least 50 percent methanol (CH3OH) by 
volume) as fuel. Flexible fuel vehicles are methanol-fueled vehicles.
    Non-oxygenated hydrocarbon means organic emissions measured by a 
flame ionization detector, excluding methanol.
    Otto-cycle means type of engine with operating characteristics 
significantly similar to the theoretical Otto combustion cycle. The use 
of a throttle during normal operation is indicative of an Otto-cycle 
engine.
    Primary intended service class means:

[[Page 79]]

    (a) The primary service application group for which a heavy-duty 
diesel engine is designed and marketed, as determined by the 
manufacturer. The primary intended service classes are designated as 
light, medium, and heavy heavy-duty diesel engines. The determination is 
based on factors such as vehicle GVW, vehicle usage and operating 
patterns, other vehicle design characteristics, engine horsepower, and 
other engine design and operating characteristics.
    (1) Light heavy-duty diesel engines usually are non-sleeved and not 
designed for rebuild; their rated horsepower generally ranges from 70 to 
170. Vehicle body types in this group might include any heavy-duty 
vehicle built for a light-duty truck chassis, van trucks, multi-stop 
vans, recreational vehicles, and some single axle straight trucks. 
Typical applications would include personal transportation, light-load 
commercial hauling and delivery, passenger service, agriculture, and 
construction. The GVWR of these vehicles is normally less than 19,500 
lbs.
    (2) Medium heavy-duty diesel engines may be sleeved or non-sleeved 
and may be designed for rebuild. Rated horsepower generally ranges from 
170 to 250. Vehicle body types in this group would typically include 
school buses, tandem axle straight trucks, city tractors, and a variety 
of special purpose vehicles such as small dump trucks, and trash 
compactor trucks. Typical applications would include commercial short 
haul and intra-city delivery and pickup. Engines in this group are 
normally used in vehicles whose GVWR varies from 19,500-33,000 lbs.
    (3) Heavy heavy-duty diesel engines are sleeved and designed for 
multiple rebuilds. Their rated horsepower generally exceeds 250. 
Vehicles in this group are normally tractors, trucks, and buses used in 
inter-city, long-haul applications. These vehicles normally exceed 
33,000 lbs. GVWR.
    Production weighted particulate average means the manufacturer's 
production-weighted average particulate emission level, for 
certification purposes, of all of its diesel engine families included in 
the light-duty particulate averaging program. It is calculated at the 
end of the model year by multiplying each family particulate emission 
limit by its respective production, summing those terms, and dividing 
the sum by the total production of the effected families. Those vehicles 
produced for sale in California or at high altitude shall each be 
averaged separately from those produced for sale in any other area.
    Throttle means a device used to control an engine's power output by 
limiting the amount of air entering the combustion chamber.
    Total Hydrocarbon Equivalent means the sum of the carbon mass 
emissions of non-oxygenated hydrocarbons, methanol, formaldehyde or 
other organic compounds that are separately measured, expressed as 
gasoline-fueled vehicle hydrocarbons. In the case of exhaust emissions, 
the hydrogen-to-carbon ratio of the equivalent hydrocarbon is 1.85:1. In 
the case of diurnal and hot soak emissions, the hydrogen-to-carbon 
ratios of the equivalent hydrocarbons are 2.33:1 and 2.2:1, 
respectively.
    Trading means the exchange of heavy-duty engine NOX or 
particulate emission credits between manufacturers.
    Useful life means:
    (a) For light-duty vehicles a period of use of 5 years or 50,000 
miles, whichever first occurs.
    (b) For a light-duty truck engine family, a period of use of 11 
years or 120,000 miles, whichever occurs first.
    (c) For an Otto-cycle heavy-duty engine family, a period of use of 8 
years of 110,000 miles, whichever first occurs.
    (d) For a diesel heavy-duty engine family:
    (1) For light heavy-duty diesel engines, period of use of 8 years or 
110,000 miles, whichever first occurs.
    (2) For medium heavy-duty diesel engines, a period of use of 8 years 
or 185,000 miles, whichever first occurs.
    (3) For heavy heavy-duty diesel engines, a period of use of 8 years 
or 290,000 miles, whichever first occurs.
    (e) As an option for both light-duty truck and heavy-duty engine 
families, an alternative useful life period assigned by the 
Administrator under the provisions of paragraph (f) of Sec. 86.090-21.
    (f) The useful-life period for purposes of the emissions defect 
warranty and

[[Page 80]]

emissions performance warranty shall be a period of 5 years/50,000 miles 
whichever first occurs, for light-duty trucks, Otto cycle heavy-duty 
engines and light heavy-duty diesel engines. For all other heavy-duty 
diesel engines the aforementioned period is 5 years/100,000 miles, 
whichever first occurs. However, in no case may this period be less than 
the manufacturer's basic mechanical warranty period for the engine 
family.

[54 FR 14460, Apr. 11, 1989, as amended at 61 FR 58106, Nov. 12, 1996]



Sec. 86.090-8  Emission standards for 1990 and later model year light-duty vehicles.

    (a)(1) Exhaust emissions from 1990 and later model year light-duty 
vehicles shall not exceed (compliance with these standards is optional 
for 1990 model year methanol-fueled vehicles):
    (i)(A) Hydrocarbons (for petroleum-fueled Otto-cycle and diesel 
vehicles). 0.41 gram per vehicle mile (0.26 gram per vehicle kilometer).
    (B) Total Hydrocarbon Equivalent (for methanol-fueled Otto-cycle and 
diesel vehicles). 0.41 gram per vehicle mile (0.26 gram per vehicle 
kilometer).
    (ii) Carbon monoxide. 3.4 grams per vehicle mile (2.1 grams per 
vehicle kilometer).
    (iii) Oxides of nitrogen. 1.0 gram per vehicle mile (0.63 gram per 
vehicle kilometer).
    (iv) Particulate (for diesel vehicles only).
    (A) 0.20 gram per vehicle mile (0.12 gram per vehicle kilometer).
    (B) A manufacturer may elect to include all or some of its diesel 
light-duty vehicle engine families in the appropriate particulate 
averaging program (petroleum or methanol), provided that vehicles 
produced for sale in California or in designated high-altitude areas may 
be averaged only within each of these areas. Averaging is not permitted 
between fuel types. If the manufacturer elects to average light-duty 
vehicles and light-duty trucks together in the appropriate particulate 
averaging program, its composite particulate standard applies to the 
combined set of light-duty vehicles and light-duty trucks included in 
the average and is calculated as defined in Sec. 86.090-2.
    (2) The standards set forth in paragraph (a)(1) of this section 
refer to the exhaust emitted over a driving schedule as set forth in 
subpart B of this part and measured and calculated in accordance with 
those procedures.
    (b) Fuel evaporative emissions from 1990 and later model year light-
duty vehicles shall not exceed (compliance with these standards is 
optional for l990 model year methanol-fueled engines):
    (1) Hydrocarbons (for gasoline-fueled vehicles). 2.0 grams per test.
    (2) Total Hydrocarbon Equivalent (for methanol-fueled vehicles). 2.0 
grams carbon per test.
    (3) The standards set forth in paragraphs (b) (1) and (2) of this 
section refers to a composite sample of the fuel evaporative emissions 
collected under the conditions set forth in subpart B of this part and 
measured in accordance with those procedures.
    (c) No crankcase emissions shall be discharged into the ambient 
atmosphere from any 1990 and later model year Otto-cycle or methanol-
fueled diesel light-duty vehicle.
    (d)-(f) [Reserved]
    (g) Any 1990 and later model year light-duty vehicle that a 
manufacturer wishes to certify for sale shall meet the emission 
standards under both low- and high-altitude conditions as specified in 
Sec. 86.082-2, except as provided in paragraphs (h) and (i) of this 
section. Vehicles shall meet emission standards under both low- and 
high-altitude conditions without manual adjustments or modifications. 
Any emission control device used to meet emission standards under high-
altitude conditions shall initially actuate (automatically) no higher 
than 4,000 feet above sea level.
    (h) The manufacturer may exempt 1990 and later model year vehicles 
from compliance at high altitude with the emission standards set forth 
in paragraphs (a) and (b) of this section if the vehicles are not 
intended for sale at high altitude and if the requirements of paragraphs 
(h) (1) and (2) of this section are met.
    (1) A vehicle configuration shall only be considered eligible for 
exemption under paragraph (h) of this section if the requirements of 
either paragraph (h) (l) (i), (ii), (iii), or (iv) of this section are 
met.
    (i) Its design parameters (displacement-to-weight ratio (D/W) and 
engine speed-to-vehicle-speed ratio (N/V)) fall within the exempted 
range for that

[[Page 82]]

manufacturer for that year. The exempted range is determined according 
to the following procedure:
    (A) The manufacturer shall graphically display the D/W and N/V data 
of all vehicle configurations it will offer for the model year in 
question. The axis of the abscissa shall be D/W (where (D) is the engine 
displacement expressed in cubic centimeters and (W) is the equivalent 
vehicle test weight expressed in pounds), and the axis of the ordinate 
shall be N/V (where (N) is the crankshaft speed expressed in revolutions 
per minute and (V) is the vehicle speed expressed in miles per hour). At 
the manufacturer's option, either the 1:1 transmission gear ratio or the 
lowest numerical gear ratio available in the transmission will be used 
to determine N/V. The gear selection must be the same for all N/V data 
points on the manufacturer's graph. For each transmission/axle ratio 
combination, only the lowest N/V value shall be used in the graphical 
display.
    (B) The product line is then defined by the equation, N/V=C(D/
W)-\0\.\9\, where the constant, C, is determined 
by the requirement that all the vehicle data points either fall on the 
line or lie to the upper right of the line as displayed on the graphs.
    (C) The exemption line is then defined by the equation, N/V=C(0.84 
D/W)-\0\.\9\, where the constant, C is the same as 
that found in paragraph (h)(1)(i)(B) of this section.
    (D) The exempted range includes all values of N/V and D/W which 
simultaneously fall to the lower left of the exemption line as drawn on 
the graph.
    (ii) Its design parameters fall within the alternate exempted range 
for that manufacturer that year. The alternate exempted range is 
determined by substituting rated horsepower (hp) for displacement (D) in 
the exemption procedure described in paragraph (h)(1)(i) of this section 
and by using the product line N/V=C(hp/W)-\0\.\9\.
    (A) Rated horsepower shall be determined by using the Society of 
Automotive Engineers Test Procedure J 1349, or any subsequent version of 
that test procedure. Any of the horsepower determinants within that test 
procedure may be used, as long as it is used consistently throughout the 
manufacturer's product line in any model year.
    (B) No exemptions will be allowed under paragraph (h)(1)(ii) of this 
section to any manufacturer that has exempted vehicle configurations as 
set forth in paragraph (h)(1)(i) of this section.
    (iii) Its acceleration time (the time it takes a vehicle to 
accelerate from 0 miles per hour to a speed not less than 40 miles per 
hour and not greater than 50 miles per hour) under high-altitude 
conditions is greater than the largest acceleration time under low-
altitude conditions for that manufacturer for that year. The procedure 
to be followed in making this determination is:
    (A) The manufacturer shall list the vehicle configuration and 
acceleration time under low-altitude conditions of that vehicle 
configuration which has the highest acceleration time under low-altitude 
conditions of all the vehicle configurations it will offer for the model 
year in question. The manufacturer shall also submit a description of 
the methodology used to make this determination.
    (B) The manufacturer shall then list the vehicle configurations and 
acceleration times under high-altitude conditions of all those vehicle 
configurations which have higher acceleration times under high-altitude 
conditions than the highest acceleration time at low altitude identified 
in paragraph (h)(1)(iii)(A) of this section.
    (iv) In lieu of performing the test procedure of paragraphs 
(h)(1)(iii) (A) and (B) of this section, its acceleration time can be 
estimated based on the manufacturer's engineering evaluation, in 
accordance with good engineering practice, to meet the exemption 
criteria of paragraph (h)(1)(iii) of this section.
    (2) A vehicle shall only be considered eligible for exemption under 
this paragraph if at least one configuration of its model type (and 
transmission configuration in the case of vehicles equipped with manual 
transmissions, excluding differences due to the presence of overdrive) 
is certified to meet emission standards under high-altitude conditions 
as specified in paragraph (a) through (g) of this section. The 
Certificate of Conformity (the Certificate)

[[Page 83]]

covering any exempted configuration(s) will also apply to the 
corresponding non-exempt configuration(s) required under this 
subparagraph. As a condition to the exemption, any suspension, 
revocation, voiding, or withdrawal of the Certificate as it applies to a 
non-exempt configuration for any reason will result in a suspension of 
the Certificate as it applies to the corresponding exempted 
configuration(s) of that model type, unless there is at least one other 
corresponding non-exempt configuration of the same model type still 
covered by the Certificate. The suspension of the Certificate as it 
applies to the exempted configuration(s) will be terminated when any one 
of the following occurs:
    (i) Another corresponding non-exempt configuration(s) receive(s) 
coverage under the Certificate; or
    (ii) Suspension of the Certificate as it applies to the 
corresponding non-exempt configuration(s) is terminated; or
    (iii) The Agency's action(s), with respect to suspension,

    (g)(1) Any light-duty truck that a manufacturer wishes to certify 
for sale at low altitude must be capable of meeting high-altitude 
emission standards (specified in paragraphs (d) through (f) of this 
section). The manufacturer may specify vehicle adjustments or 
modifications to allow the vehicle to meet high-altitude standards but 
these adjustments or modifications may not alter the vehicle's basic 
engine, inertia weight class, transmission configuration, and axle 
ratio.
    (i) A manufacturer may certify unique configurations to meet the 
high-altitude standards but is not required to certify these vehicle 
configurations to meet the low-altitude standards.
    (ii) Any adjustments or modifications that are recommended to be 
performed on vehicles to satisfy the requirements of paragraph (g)(1) of 
this section:
    (A) Shall be capable of being effectively performed by commercial 
repair facilities, and
    (B) Must be included in the manufacturer's application for 
certification.
    (2) The manufacturer may exempt 1990 and later model year vehicles 
from compliance with the high-altitude emission standards set forth in 
paragraphs (d) and (e) of this section if the vehicles are not intended 
for sale at high altitude and if the following requirements are met. A 
vehicle configuration shall only be considered eligible for exemption if 
the requirements of either paragraph (g)(2) (i), (ii), (iii), or (iv) of 
this section are met.
    (i) Its design parameters (displacement-to-weight ratio (D/W) and 
engine speed to-vehicle-speed ratio (N/V)) fall within the exempted 
range for that manufacturer for that year. The exempted range is 
determined according to the following procedure:
    (A) The manufacturer shall graphically display the D/W and N/V data 
of all vehicle configurations it will offer for the model year in 
question. The axis of the abscissa shall be D/W (where (D) is the engine 
displacement expressed in cubic centimeters and (W) is the gross vehicle 
weight (GVW) expressed in pounds), and the axis of the ordinate shall be 
N/V (where (N) is the crankshaft speed expressed in revolutions per 
minute and (V) is the vehicle speed expressed in miles per hour). At the 
manufacturer's option, either the 1:1 transmission gear ratio or the 
lowest numerical gear ratio available in the transmission will be used 
to determine N-V. The gear selection must be the same for all N/V data 
points on the manufacturer's graph. For each transmission/axle ratio 
combination, only the lowest N/V value shall be used in the graphical 
display.
    (B) The product line is then defined by the equation, N/V = C(D/
W)-0.9, where the constant, C, is determined by the 
requirement that all the vehicle data points either fall on the line or 
lie to the upper right of the line as displayed on the graphs.
    (C) The exemption line is then defined by the equation, N/V = C(0.84 
D/W)-0.9, where the constant, C is the same as that found in 
paragraph (g)(2)(i)(B) of this section.
    (D) The exempted range includes all values of N/V and D/W which 
simultaneously fall to the lower left of the exemption line as drawn on 
the graph.
    (ii) Its design parameters fall within the alternate exempted range 
for that manufacturer that year. The alternate

[[Page 86]]

exempted range is determined by substituting rated horsepower (hp) for 
displacement (D) in the exemption procedure described in paragraph 
(g)(2)(i) of this section and by using the product line N/V = C(hp/
W)-0.9.
    (A) Rated horsepower shall be determined by using the Society of 
Automotive Engineers Test Procedure J 1349, or any subsequent version of 
that test procedure. Any of the horsepower determinants within that test 
procedure may be used, as long as it is used consistently throughout the 
manufacturer s product line in any model year.
    (B) No exemptions will be allowed under paragraph (g)(2)(ii) of this 
section to any manufacturer that has exempted vehicle configurations as 
set forth in paragraph (g)(2)(i) of this section.
    (iii) Its acceleration time (the time it takes a vehicle to 
accelerate from 0 to a speed not less than 40 miles per hour and not 
greater than 50 miles per hour) under high-altitude conditions is 
greater than the largest acceleration time under low-altitude conditions 
for that manufacturer for that year. The procedure to be followed in 
making this determination is:
    (A) The manufacturer shall list the vehicle configuration and 
acceleration time under low-altitude conditions of that vehicle 
configuration which has the highest acceleration time under low-altitude 
conditions of all the vehicle configurations it will offer for the model 
year in question. The manufacturer shall also submit a description of 
the methodology used to make this determination.
    (B) The manufacturer shall then list the vehicle configurations and 
acceleration times under high-altitude conditions of all those vehicle 
configurations which have higher acceleration times under high-altitude 
conditions than the highest acceleration time at low altitude identified 
in paragraph (g)(2)(iii)(A) of this section.
    (iv) In lieu of performing the test procedure of paragraph 
(g)(2)(iii) of this section, its acceleration time can be estimated 
based on the manufacturer's engineering evaluation, in accordance with 
good engineering practice, to meet the exemption criteria of paragraph 
(g)(2)(iii) of this section.
    (3) The sale of a vehicle for principal use at a designated high-
altitude location that has been exempted as set forth in paragraph 
(g)(2) of this section will be considered a violation of section 
203(a)(1) of the Clean Air Act.

include a detailed description of each auxiliary emission control device 
(AECD) to be installed in or on any certification test vehicle (or 
certification test engine).
    (ii)(A) The manufacturer shall provide to the Administrator in the 
application for certification:
    (1) A list of those parameters which are physically capable of being 
adjusted (including those adjustable parameters for which access is 
difficult) and that, if adjusted to settings other than the 
manufacturer's recommended setting, may affect emissions;
    (2) A specification of the manufacturer's intended physically 
adjustable range of each such parameter, and the production tolerances 
of the limits or stops used to establish the physically adjustable

    (ii) For heavy duty vehicles equipped with gasoline-fueled or 
methanol-fueled engines, the Administrator does not assume that each 
evaporative emission family-evaporative emission control system 
combination will deteriorate in a unique manner during the useful life 
of the vehicle. The manufacturer shall therefore identify those 
evaporative emission deterioration factors which shall be applied to the 
various evaporative emission family-evaporative emission control system 
combinations which are expected to exhibit similar deterioration 
characteristics during the useful life of the vehicle.
    (iii)(A) A description of the test procedures to be used to

shall be determined on the basis of which class best represents the 
majority of the sales of that engine family.
    (C)(1) A statement of recommended maintenance and procedures 
necessary to assure that the vehicles (or engines) covered by a 
certificate of conformity in operation conform to the regulations, and a 
description of the program for training of personnel for such 
maintenance, and the equipment required.
    (2) A description of vehicle adjustments or modifications necessary, 
if any, to assure that light-duty vehicles and light-duty trucks covered 
by a certificate of conformity conform to the regulations while being

particulate emission limit and the projected U.S. production volume of 
the family for the model year.
    (B) The manufacturer shall choose the level of the family 
particulate emission limits, accurate to one-hundredth of a gram per 
mile.
    (C) The manufacturer may at any time during production elect to 
change the level of any family diesel particulate emission limit(s) by 
submitting the new limit(s) to the Administrator and by demonstrating 
compliance with the limit(s) as described in Sec. 86.085-2 and 
Sec. 86.088-28(b)(5)(i).

must list the family NOX emission limit and the projected 
U.S. production volume of the family for the model year.
    (B) The manufacturer shall choose the level of the family 
NOX emission limits, accurate to one-tenth of a gram per

compliance with the limit(s) as described in Sec. 86.088-2 and 
Sec. 86.088-28(b)(5)(ii).
    (iii) If the manufacturer elects to participate in any of the 
particulate and/or the NOX banking programs for heavy-duty 
engines, the application must list the information required in 
Secs. 86.091-15 and 86.090-23.
    (6)(i) For Otto-cycle heavy-duty engines, the application must state 
whether the engine family is being certified for use in all vehicles 
regardless of their Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (see Sec. 86.088-10 
(a)(1)(i) and (a)(3)(i)), or, only for use in vehicles with a Gross

[[Page 91]]

Vehicle Weight Rating greater than 14,000 pounds.
    (ii) If the engine family is being certified for use in all vehicles 
and, is being certified to the emission standards applicable to Otto-
cycle heavy-duty engines for use only in vehicles with a Gross Vehicle 
Weight Rating over 14,000 pounds under the provisions of paragraph 
(a)(3) of Sec. 86.088-10, then the application must also attest that the 
engine family, together with all other engine families being certified 
under the provisions of paragraph (a)(3) of Sec. 86.088-10, represent no 
more than 5 percent of model year sales of the manufacturer of all Otto-

    (f) Light-duty truck and heavy-duty engine manufacturers who believe 
that the useful life periods of Sec. 86.085-2 are significantly 
unrepresentative for one or more engine families (either too long or too 
short), may petition the Administrator to provide an alternative useful-
life period. This petition must include the full rationale behind the 
request together with any supporting data and other evidence. Based on 
this or other information the Administrator may assign an alternative 
useful-life period. Any petition should be submitted in a timely manner, 
to allow adequate time for a thorough evaluation.

Sec. 86.090-22  Approval of application for certification; test fleet selections;
          determinations of parameters subject to adjustment for certification and 

          Selective Enforcement Audit, adequacy of limits, and 
          physically adjustable ranges.

    (a) After a review of the application for certification and any 
other information which the Administrator may require, the Administrator 
may approve the application and select a test fleet in accordance with 
Sec. 86.090-24.
    (b) The Administrator may disapprove in whole or in part an 
application for certification for reasons including incompleteness, 
inaccuracy, inappropriate proposed mileage (or service) accumulation 
procedures, test equipment, or fuel, and incorporation of defeat devices 
in vehicles (or on engines) described by the application.

[[Page 92]]

    (c) Where any part of an application is rejected, the Administrator 
shall notify the manufacturer in writing and set forth the reasons for 
such rejection. Within 30 days following receipt of such notification, 
the manufacturer may request a hearing on the Administrator's 
determination. The request shall be in writing, signed by an authorized 
representative of the manufacturer and shall include a statement 
specifying the manufacturer's objections to the Administrator's 
determinations, and data in support of such objections. If, after the 
review of the request and supporting data, the Administrator finds that 
the request raises a substantial factual issue, he shall provide the 
manufacturer a hearing in accordance with Sec. 86.078-6 with respect to 
such issue.
    (d)(1) The Administrator does not approve the test procedures for 
establishing the evaporative emission deterioration factors for light-
duty vehicles and light-duty trucks. The manufacturer shall submit the 
procedures as required in Sec. 86.090-21(b)(4)(i) prior to the 
Administrator's selection of the test fleet under Sec. 86.090-24(b)(1) 
and if such procedures will involve testing of durability-data vehicles 
selected by the Administrator or elected by the manufacturer under 
Sec. 86.090-24(c)(1), prior to initiation of such testing.
    (2) Light-duty trucks and heavy-duty engines only. The Administrator 
does not approve the test procedures for establishing exhaust emission 
deterioration factors. The manufacturer shall submit these procedures 
and determinations as required in Sec. 86.090-21(b)(4)(iii) prior to 
determining the deterioration factors.
    (3) Heavy-duty vehicles equipped with gasoline-fueled or methanol-
fueled engines only. The Administrator does not approve the test 
procedures for establishing the evaporative emission deterioration 
factors. The test procedure will conform to the requirements in 
Sec. 86.090-23(b)(3).
    (e) When the Administrator selects emission-data vehicles for the 
test fleet, he will at the same time determine those vehicle or engine 
parameters which will be subject to adjustment for certification, 
Selective Enforcement Audit and Production Compliance Audit testing, the 
adequacy of the limits, stops, seals, or other means used to inhibit 
adjustment, and the resulting physically adjustable ranges for each such 
parameter and notify the manufacturer of his determinations.
    (1)(i) Except as noted in paragraph (e)(1)(iv) of this section, the 
Administrator may determine to be subject to adjustment the idle fuel-
air mixture parameter on Otto-cycle vehicles (or engines) (carbureted or 
fuel-injected); the choke valve action parameter(s) on carbureted, Otto-
cycle vehicles (or engines); or any parameter on any vehicle (or engine) 
(Otto-cycle or diesel) which is physically capable of being adjusted, 
may significantly affect emissions, and was not present on the 
manufacturer's vehicles (or engines) in the previous model year in the 
same form and function.
    (ii) The Administrator may, in addition, determine to be subject to 
adjustment any other parameters on any vehicle or engine which is 
physically capable of being adjusted and which may significantly affect 
emissions. However, the Administrator may do so only if he has 
previously notified the manufacturer that he might do so and has found, 
at the time he gave this notice, that the intervening period would be 
adequate to permit the development and application of the requisite 
technology, giving appropriate consideration to the cost of compliance 
within such period. In no event will this notification be given later 
than September 1 of the calendar year two years prior to the model year.
    (iii) In determining the parameters subject to adjustment the 
Administrator will consider the likelihood that, for each of the 
parameters listed in paragraphs (e)(1)(i) and (e)(1)(ii) of this 
section, settings other than the manufacturer's recommended setting will 
occur on in-use vehicles (or engines). In determining likelihood, the 
Administrator may consider such factors as, but not limited to, 
information contained in the preliminary application, surveillance 
information from similar in-use vehicles (or engines), the difficulty 
and cost of gaining access to an adjustment, damage to the vehicle (or 
engine) if an attempt is made to

[[Page 93]]

gain such access and the need to replace parts following such attempt, 
and the effect of settings other than the manufacturer's recommended 
setting on vehicle (or engine) performance characteristics including 
emission characteristics.
    (iv) Manual chokes of heavy-duty engines only will not be considered 
a parameter subject to adjustment under the parameter adjustment 
requirements.
    (2)(i) The Administrator shall determine a parameter to be 
adequately inaccessible or sealed if:
    (A) In the case of an idle mixture screw, the screw is recessed 
within the carburetor casting and sealed with lead, thermosetting 
plastic, or an inverted elliptical spacer or sheared off after 
adjustment at the factory, and the inaccessibility is such that the 
screw cannot be accessed and/or adjusted with simple tools in one-half 
hour or for $20 (1978 dollars) or less.
    (B) In the case of a choke bimetal spring, the plate covering the 
bimetal spring is riveted or welded in place, or held in place with 
nonreversible screws.
    (C) In the case of a parameter which may be adjusted by elongating 
or bending adjustable members (e.g., the choke vacuum break), the 
elongation of the adjustable member is limited by design or, in the case 
of a bendable member, the member is constructed of a material which when 
bent would return to its original shape after the force is removed 
(plastic or spring steel materials).
    (D) In the case of any parameter, the manufacturer demonstrates that 
adjusting the parameter to settings other than the manufacturer's 
recommended setting takes more than one-half hour or costs more than $20 
(1978 dollars).
    (ii) The Administrator shall determine a physical limit or stop to 
be an adequate restraint on adjustability if:
    (A) In the case of a threaded adjustment, the threads are 
terminated, pinned or crimped so as to prevent additional travel without 
breakage or need for repairs which take more than one-half hour or cost 
more than $20 (1978 dollars).
    (B) The adjustment is ineffective at the end of the limits of travel 
regardless of additional forces or torques applied to the adjustment.
    (C) The manufacturer demonstrates that travel or rotation limits 
cannot be exceeded with the use of simple and inexpensive tools 
(screwdriver, pliers, open-end or box wrenches, etc.) without incurring 
significant and costly damage to the vehicle (or engine) or control 
system or without taking more than one-half hour or costing more than 
$20 (1978 dollars).
    (iii) If manufacturer service manuals or bulletins describe routine 
procedures for gaining access to a parameter or for removing or 
exceeding a physical limit, stop, seal or other means used to inhibit 
adjustment, or if surveillance data indicate that gaining access, 
removing, or exceeding is likely, paragraphs (e)(2)(i) and (e)(2)(ii) of 
this section shall not apply for that parameter.
    (iv) In determining the adequacy of a physical limit, stop, seal, or 
other means used to inhibit adjustment of a parameter not covered by 
paragraph (e)(2)(i) or (e)(2)(ii) of this section, the Administrator 
will consider the likelihood that it will be circumvented, removed, or 
exceeded on in-use vehicles. In determining likelihood, the 
Administrator may consider such factors as, but not limited to, 
information contained in the preliminary application; surveillance 
information from similar in-use vehicles (or engines); the difficulty 
and cost of circumventing, removing, or exceeding the limit, stop, seal, 
or other means; damage to the vehicle (or engine) if an attempt is made 
to circumvent, remove, or exceed it and the need to replace parts 
following such attempt; and the effect of settings beyond the limit, 
stop, seal, or other means on vehicle (or engine) performance 
characteristics other than emission characteristics.
    (3) The Administrator shall determine two physically adjustable 
ranges for each parameter subject to adjustment:
    (i)(A) In the case of a parameter determined to be adequately 
inaccessible or sealed, the Administrator may include within the 
physically adjustable range applicable to testing under this subpart 
(certification testing) all settings within the production tolerance

[[Page 94]]

associated with the nominal setting for that parameter, as specified by 
the manufacturer in the preliminary application for certification.
    (B) In the case of other parameters, the Administrator shall include 
within this range all settings within physical limits or stops 
determined to be adequate restraints on adjustability. The Administrator 
may also include the production tolerances on the location of these 
limits or stops when determining the physically adjustable range.
    (ii)(A) In the case of a parameter determined to be adequately 
inaccessible or sealed, the Administrator shall include within the 
physically adjustable range applicable to testing under subpart G or K 
(Selective Enforcement Audit and Production Compliance Audit) only the 
actual settings to which the parameter is adjusted during production.
    (B) In the case of other parameters, the Administrator shall include 
within this range all settings within physical limits or stops 
determined to be adequate restraints on adjustability, as they are 
actually located on the test vehicle (or engine).
    (f)(1) If the manufacturer submits the information specified in 
Sec. 86.090-21(b)(1)(ii) in advance of its full preliminary application 
for certification, the Administrator shall review the information and 
make the determinations required in paragraph (e) of this section within 
90 days of the manufacturer's submittal.
    (2) The 90-day decision period is exclusive of the elapsed time 
during which EPA may request additional information from manufacturers 
regarding an adjustable parameter and the receipt of the manufacturers' 
response(s).
    (g) Within 30 days following receipt of notification of the 
Administrator's determinations made under paragraph (e) of this section, 
the manufacturer may request a hearing on the Administrator's 
determinations. The request shall be in writing, signed by an authorized 
representative of the manufacturer, and shall include a statement 
specifying the manufacturer's objections to the Administrator's 
determinations, and data in support of such objections. If, after review 
of the request and supporting data, the Administrator finds that the 
request raises a substantial factual issue, he shall provide the 
manufacturer a hearing in accordance with Sec. 86.078-6 with respect to 
such issue.
[54 FR 14470, Apr. 11, 1989]



Sec. 86.090-24  Test vehicles and engines.

    (a)(1) The vehicles or engines covered by an application for 
certification will be divided into groupings of engines which are 
expected to have similar emission characteristics throughout their 
useful life. Each group of engines with similar emission characteristics 
shall be defined as a separate engine family.
    (2) To be classed in the same engine family, engines must be 
identical in all the following respects:
    (i) The cylinder bore center-to-center dimensions.
    (ii)-(iii) [Reserved]
    (iv) The cylinder block configuration (air cooled or water cooled; 
L-6, 90 deg. V-8, etc.).
    (v) The location of the intake and exhaust valves (or ports).
    (vi) The method of air aspiration.
    (vii) The combustion cycle.
    (viii) Catalytic converter characteristics.
    (ix) Thermal reactor characteristics.
    (x) Type of air inlet cooler (e.g., intercoolers and after-coolers) 
for diesel heavy-duty engines.
    (3)(i) Engines identical in all the respects listed in paragraph 
(a)(2) of this section may be further divided into different engine 
families if the Administrator determines that they may be expected to 
have different emission characteristics. This determination will be 
based upon a consideration of the following features of each engine:
    (A) The bore and stroke.
    (B) The surface-to-volume ratio of the nominally dimensioned 
cylinder at the top dead center positions.
    (C) The intake manifold induction port size and configuration.
    (D) The exhaust manifold port size and configuration.
    (E) The intake and exhaust valve sizes.
    (F) The fuel system.
    (G) The camshaft timing and ignition or injection timing

[[Page 95]]

    (ii) Light-duty trucks and heavy-duty engines produced in different 
model years and distinguishable in the respects listed in paragraph 
(a)(2) of this section shall be treated as belonging to a single engine 
family if the Administrator requires it, after determining that the 
engines may be expected to have similar emission deterioration 
characteristics.
    (4) Where engines are of a type which cannot be divided into engine 
families based upon the criteria listed in paragraphs (a)(2) and (a)(3) 
of this section, the Administrator will establish families for those 
engines based upon those features most related to their emission 
characteristics. Engines that are eligible to be included in the same 
engine family based on the criteria in paragraphs (a)(2) and (a)(3)(i) 
of this section may be further divided into different engine families if 
the manufacturer determines that they may be expected to have different 
emission characteristics. This determination will be based upon a 
consideration of the following features of each engine:
    (i) The dimension from the center line of the crankshaft to the 
center line of the camshaft.
    (ii) The dimension from the center line of the crankshaft to the top 
of the cylinder block head face.
    (iii) The size of the intake and exhaust valves (or ports).
    (5) Gasoline-fueled and methanol-fueled light-duty vehicles and 
light-duty trucks covered by an application for certification will be 
divided into groupings which are expected to have similar evaporative 
emission characteristics throughout their useful life. Each group of 
vehicles with similar evaporative emission characteristics shall be 
defined as a separate evaporative emission family.
    (6) For gasoline-fueled or methanol-fueled light-duty vehicles and 
light-duty trucks to be classed in the same evaporative emission family, 
vehicles must be similar with respect to:
    (i) Type of vapor storage device (e.g., canister, air cleaner, 
crankcase).
    (ii) Basic canister design.
    (iii) Fuel system.
    (7) Where vehicles are of a type which cannot be divided into 
evaporative emission families based on the criteria listed above, the 
Administrator will establish families for those vehicles based upon the 
features most related to their evaporative emission characteristics.
    (8)(i) If the manufacturer elects to participate in the Alternative 
Durability Program, the engine families covered by an application for 
certification shall be grouped based upon similar engine design and 
emission control system characteristics. Each of these groups shall 
constitute a separate engine family group.
    (ii) To be classed in the same engine family group, engine families 
must contain engines identical in all of the following respects:
    (A) The combustion cycle.
    (B) The cylinder block configuration (air-cooled or water-cooled; L-
6, V-8, rotary, etc.).
    (C) Displacement (engines of different displacement within 50 cubic 
inches or 15 percent of the largest displacement and contained within a 
multidisplacement engine family will be included in the same engine 
family group).
    (D) Catalytic converter usage and basic type (noncatalyst, oxidation 
catalyst only, three-way catalyst equipped).
    (9) Engine families identical in all respects listed in paragraph 
(a)(8) of this section may be further divided into different engine 
family groups if the Administrator determines that they are expected to 
have significantly different exhaust emission control system 
deterioration characteristics.
    (10) A manufacturer may request the Administrator to include in an 
engine family group, engine families in addition to those grouped under 
the provisions of paragraph (a)(8) of this section. This request must be 
accompanied by information the manufacturer believes supports the 
inclusion of these additional engine families.
    (11) A manufacturer may combine into a single engine family group 
those light-duty vehicle and light-duty truck engine families which 
otherwise meet the requirements of paragraphs (a)(8) through (a)(10) of 
this section.
    (12) The vehicles covered by an application for certification 
equipped with gasoline-fueled or methanol-fueled

[[Page 96]]

heavy-duty engines will be divided into groupings of vehicles on the 
basis of physical features which are expected to affect evaporative 
emissions. Each group of vehicles with similar features shall be defined 
as a separate evaporative emission family.
    (13) For vehicles equipped with gasoline-fueled or methanol-fueled 
heavy-duty engines to be classed in the same evaporative emission 
family, vehicles must be identical with respect to:
    (i) Method of fuel/air metering (i.e., carburetion versus fuel 
injection).
    (ii) Carburetor bowl fuel volume, within a 10 cc range.
    (14) For vehicles equipped with gasoline-fueled or methanol-fueled 
heavy-duty engines to be classed in the same evaporative emission 
control system, vehicles must be identical with respect to:
    (i) Method of vapor storage.
    (ii) Method of carburetor sealing.
    (iii) Method of air cleaner sealing.
    (iv) Vapor storage working capacity, within a 20 g range.
    (v) Number of storage devices.
    (vi) Method of purging stored vapors.
    (vii) Method of venting the carburetor during both engine off and 
engine operation.
    (viii) Liquid fuel hose material.
    (ix) Vapor storage material.
    (15) Where vehicles equipped with gasoline-fueled or methanol-fueled 
heavy-duty engines are types which cannot be divided into evaporative 
emission family-control system combinations based on the criteria listed 
above, the Administrator will establish evaporative emission family-
control system combinations for those vehicles based on features most 
related to their evaporative emission characteristics.
    (16) No 1990 or later model year heavy-duty engine which is to be 
used to generate emission credits for 1991 and later banking, trading 
and averaging programs may also utilize nonconformance penalties (NCPs). 
Use of an NCP thus becomes an engine family criterion.
    (i) Use of either a NOX or a particulate matter NCP by an 
engine family precludes that family from generating both NOX 
and particulate matter emission credits.
    (ii) If a manufacturer desires to use both banked credits and NCPs 
on an engine family, two separate engine families must be established. 
One engine family must consist of engines certified for only credit use 
following the procedure specified in this subpart. The other engine 
family must be certified for only NCP use following the procedure as 
specified in 40 CFR part 86, subpart L.
    (17) Any 1990 or later model year urban bus engines which are to be 
used to generate PM credits for the 1991 and later model year urban bus 
PM standard shall be placed in separate engine families for 
certification purposes and the families shall be clearly designated as 
such in the application. Urban bus engines of different basic design 
will not be in the same family. If a manufacturer certifies two or more 
different urban bus engines these shall be in different engine families.
    (b) Emission data--(1) Emission-data vehicles. Paragraph (b)(1) of 
this section applies to light-duty vehicle and light-duty truck 
emission-data vehicles.
    (i) Vehicles will be chosen to be operated and tested for emission 
data based upon engine family groupings. Within each engine family, one 
test vehicle will be selected based on the following criteria: The 
Administrator shall select the vehicle with the heaviest equivalent test 
weight (including options) within the family. Then within that vehicle 
the Administrator shall select, in the order listed, the highest road-
load power, largest displacement, the transmission with the highest 
numerical final gear ratio (including overdrive), the highest numerical 
axle ratio offered in that engine family and the maximum fuel flow 
calibration.
    (ii) The Administrator shall select one additional test vehicle from 
within each engine family. The vehicle selected shall be the vehicle 
expected to exhibit the highest emissions of those vehicles remaining in 
the engine family. If all vehicles within the engine family are similar 
the Administrator may waive the requirements of this paragraph.
    (iii) Within an engine family and exhaust emission control system, 
the manufacturer may alter any emission-data vehicle (or other vehicles 
such as

[[Page 97]]

including current or previous model year emission-data vehicles, fuel 
economy data vehicles, and development vehicles provided they meet 
emission-data vehicles, protocol) to represent more than one selection 
under paragraphs (b)(1) (i), (ii), (iv), or (vii) of this section.
    (iv) If the vehicles selected in accordance with paragraphs (b)(1) 
(i) and (ii) of this section do not represent each engine-system 
combination, then one vehicle of each engine-system combination not 
represented will be selected by the Administrator. The vehicle selected 
shall be the vehicle expected to exhibit the highest emissions of those 
vehicles remaining in the engine family.
    (v) For high-altitude exhaust emission compliance for each engine 
family, the manufacturer shall follow one of the following procedures:
    (A) The manufacturer will select for testing under high-altitude 
conditions the vehicle expected to exhibit the highest emissions from 
the nonexempt vehicles selected in accordance with Sec. 86.090-24(b)(1) 
(ii), (iii), and (iv) of this section or,
    (B) In lieu of testing vehicles according to paragraph (b)(1)(v)(A) 
of this section, a manufacturer may provide a statement in its 
application for certification that, based on the manufacturer's 
engineering evaluation of such high-altitude emission testing as the 
manufacturer deems appropriate,
    (1) That all light-duty vehicles not exempt under Sec. 86.090-8(h) 
comply with the emission standards at high-altitude, and
    (2) That light-duty trucks sold for principal use at designated 
high-altitude locations comply with the high-altitude emission 
requirements, and that all light-duty trucks sold at low-altitude, which 
are not exempt under Sec. 86.090-9(g)(2), are capable of being modified 
to meet high-altitude standards.
    (vi) If 90 percent or more of the engine family sales will be in 
California, a manufacturer may substitute emission-data vehicles 
selected by the California Air Resources Board criteria for the 
selections specified in paragraphs (b)(1) (i), (ii), and (iv) of this 
section.
    (vii)(A) Vehicles of each evaporative emission family will be 
divided into evaporative emission control systems.
    (B) The Administrator will select the vehicle expected to exhibit 
the highest evaporative emissions, from within each evaporative family 
to be certified, from among the vehicles represented by the exhaust 
emission-data selections for the engine family, unless evaporative 
testing has already been completed on the vehicle expected to exhibit 
the highest evaporative emissions for the evaporative family as part of 
another engine family's testing.
    (C) If the vehicles selected in accordance with paragraph 
(b)(1)(vii)(B) of this section do not represent each evaporative 
emission control system then the Administrator will select the highest 
expected evaporative emission vehicle from within the unrepresented 
evaporative system.
    (viii) For high-altitude evaporative emission compliance for each 
evaporative emission family, the manufacturer shall follow one of the 
following procedures:
    (A) The manufacturer will select for testing under high-altitude 
conditions the one nonexempt vehicle previously selected under 
paragraphs (b)(1)(vii) (B) or (C) of this section which is expected to 
have the highest level of evaporative emissions when operated at high 
altitude or
    (B) In lieu of testing vehicles according to paragraph 
(b)(1)(viii)(A) of this section, a manufacturer may provide a statement 
in its application for certification that based on the manufacturer's 
engineering evaluation of such high-altitude emission testing as the 
manufacturer deems appropriate,
    (1) That all light-duty vehicles not exempt under Sec. 86.090-8(h) 
comply with the emission standards at high altitude and
    (2) That light-duty trucks sold for principal use at designated 
high-altitude locations comply with the high-altitude emission 
requirements, and that all light-duty trucks sold at low altitude, which 
are not exempt under Sec. 86.090-9(g)(2), are capable of being modified 
to meet high-altitude standards.
    (ix) Vehicles selected under paragraph (b)(1)(v)(A) of this section 
may

[[Page 98]]

be used to satisfy the requirements of (b)(1)(viii)(A) of this section.
    (x) Light-duty trucks only: (A) The manufacturer may reconfigure any 
of the low-altitude emission-data vehicles to represent the vehicle 
configuration required to be tested at high altitude.
    (B) The manufacturer is not required to test the reconfigured 
vehicle at low altitude.
    (2) Otto-cycle heavy-duty emission-data engines. Paragraph (b)(2) of 
this section applies to Otto-cycle heavy-duty engines.
    (i)-(ii) [Reserved]
    (iii) The Administrator shall select a maximum of two engines within 
each engine family based upon features indicating that they may have the 
highest emission levels of the engines in the engine family as follows:
    (A) The Administrator shall select one emission-data engine first 
based on the largest displacement within the engine family. Then within 
the largest displacement the Administrator shall select, in the order 
listed, highest fuel flow at the speed of maximum rated torque, the 
engine with the most advanced spark timing, no EGR or lowest EGR flow, 
and no air pump or lowest actual flow air pump.
    (B) The Administrator shall select one additional engine, from 
within each engine family. The engine selected shall be the engine 
expected to exhibit the highest emissions of those engines remaining in 
the engine family. If all engines within the engine family are similar 
the Administrator may waive the requirements of this paragraph.
    (iv) If the engines selected in accordance with paragraphs (b)(2) 
(ii) and (iii) of this section do not represent each engine 
displacement-exhaust emission control system combination, then one 
engine of each engine displacement-exhaust emission control system 
combination not represented shall be selected by the Administrator.
    (v) Within an engine family/displacement/control system, the 
manufacturer may alter any emission-data engine (or other engine 
including current or previous model year emission-data vehicles and 
development engines provided they meet the emission-data engines 
protocol) to represent more than one selection under paragraphs 
(b)(2)(iii) of this section.
    (3) Diesel heavy-duty emission-data engines. Paragraph (b)(3) of 
this section applies to diesel heavy-duty emission-data vehicles.
    (i) Engines will be chosen to be run for emission data based upon 
engine family groupings. Within each engine family, the requirements of 
this paragraph must be met.
    (ii) Engines of each engine family will be divided into groups based 
upon their exhaust emission control systems. One engine of each engine 
system combination shall be run for smoke emission data (diesel engines 
only) and gaseous emission data. Either the complete gaseous emission 
test or the complete smoke test may be conducted first. Within each 
combination, the engine that features the highest fuel feed per stroke, 
primarily at the speed of maximum rated torque and secondarily at rated 
speed, will usually be selected. If there are military engines with 
higher fuel rates than other engines in the same engine system 
combinations, then one military engine shall also be selected. The 
engine with the highest fuel feed per stroke will usually be selected.
    (iii) The Administrator may select a maximum of one additional 
engine within each engine-system combination based upon features 
indicating that it may have the highest emission levels of the engines 
of that combination. In selecting this engine, the Administrator will 
consider such features as the injection system, fuel system, compression 
ratio, rated speed, rated horsepower, peak torque speed, and peak 
torque.
    (iv) Within an engine family control system combination, the 
manufacturer may alter any emission-data engine (or other engine 
including current or previous model year emission-data vehicles and 
development engines provided they meet the emission-data engines' 
protocol) to represent more than one selection under paragraphs (b)(3) 
(ii) and (iii) of this section.
    (c) Durability data--(1) Light-duty vehicle durability-data 
vehicles. Paragraph (c)(1) of this section applies to light-duty vehicle 
durability-data vehicles.

[[Page 99]]

    (i) A durability-data vehicle will be selected by the Administrator 
to represent each engine-system combination. The vehicle selected shall 
be of the engine displacement with the largest projected sales volume of 
vehicles with that control-system combination in that engine family and 
will be designated by the Administrator as to transmission type, fuel 
system, inertia weight class, and test weight.
    (ii) A manufacturer may elect to operate and test additional 
vehicles to represent any engine-system combination. The additional 
vehicles must be of the same engine displacement, transmission type, 
fuel system and inertia weight class as the vehicle selected for that 
engine-system combination in accordance with the provisions of paragraph 
(c)(1)(i) of this section. Notice of an intent to operate and test 
additional vehicles shall be given to the Administrator no later than 30 
days following notification of the test fleet selection.
    (2) Light-duty trucks. Paragraph (c)(2) of this section applies to 
vehicles, engines, subsystems, or components used to establish exhaust 
emission deterioration factors for light-duty trucks.
    (i) The manufacturer shall select the vehicles, engines, subsystems, 
or components to be used to determine exhaust emission deterioration 
factors for each engine-family control system combination. Whether 
vehicles, engines, subsystems, or components are used, they shall be 
selected so that their emissions deterioration characteristics may be 
expected to represent those of in-use vehicles, based on good 
engineering judgment.
    (ii) [Reserved]
    (3) Heavy-duty engines. Paragraph (c)(3) of this section applies to 
engines, subsystems, or components used to establish exhaust emission 
deterioration factors for heavy-duty engines.
    (i) The manufacturer shall select the engines, subsystems, or 
components to be used to determine exhaust emission deterioration 
factors for each engine-family control system combination. Whether 
engines, subsystems, or components are used, they shall be selected so 
that their emissions deterioration characteristics may be expected to 
represent those of in-use engines, based on good engineering judgment.
    (ii) [Reserved]
    (d) For purposes of testing under Sec. 86.084-26 (a)(9) or (b)(11), 
the Administrator may require additional emission-data vehicles (or 
emission-data engines) and durability-data vehicles (light-duty vehicles 
only) identical in all material respects to vehicles (or engines) 
selected in accordance with paragraphs (b) and (c) of this section, 
provided that the number of vehicles (or engines) selected shall not 
increase the size of either the emission-data fleet or the durability-
data fleet by more than 20 percent or one vehicle (or engine), whichever 
is greater.
    (e)(1) Any manufacturer whose projected sales for the model year in 
which certification is sought is less than:
    (i) 2,000 Otto-cycle light-duty vehicles, or
    (ii) 2,000 diesel light-duty vehicles, or
    (iii) 2,000 Otto-cycle light-duty trucks, or
    (iv) 2,000 diesel light-duty trucks, or
    (v) 2,000 Otto-cycle heavy-duty engines, or
    (vi) 2,000 diesel heavy-duty engines, may request a reduction in the 
number of test vehicles (or engines) determined in accordance with the 
foregoing provisions of this section. The Administrator may agree to 
such lesser number as he determines would meet the objectives of this 
procedure.
    (2) Any manufacturer may request to certify engine families with 
combined total sales of fewer than 10,000 light-duty vehicles, light-
duty trucks, and heavy-duty engines utilizing assigned deterioration 
factors prescribed by the Administrator. The assigned deterioration 
factors shall be applied only to entire engine families.
    (f) In lieu of testing an emission-data or durability-data vehicle 
(or engine) selected under paragraph (b) or (c) of this section, and 
submitting data therefore, a manufacturer may, with the prior written 
approval of the Administrator, submit exhaust emission data and/or fuel 
evaporative emission data, as applicable on a similar vehicle (or 
engine) for which certification has previously been obtained or for 
which all applicable data required under

[[Page 100]]

Sec. 86.090-23 has previously been submitted.
    (g)(1) This paragraph applies to light-duty vehicles and light-duty 
trucks, but does not apply to the production vehicles selected under 
paragraph (h) of this section.
    (2)(i) Where it is expected that more than 33 percent of a carline, 
within an engine-system combination will be equipped with an item 
(whether that item is standard equipment or an option), the full 
estimated weight of that item shall be included in the curb weight 
computation for each vehicle available with that option in that carline, 
within that engine-system combination.
    (ii) Where it is expected that 33 percent or less of the carline, 
within an engine-system, will be equipped with an item of (whether that 
item is standard equipment or an option), no weight for that item will 
be added in computing curb weight for any vehicle in that carline, 
within that engine-system combination, unless that item is standard 
equipment on the vehicle.
    (iii) In the case of mutually exclusive options, only the weight of 
the heavier option will be added in computing curb weight.
    (iv) Optional equipment weighing less than 3 pounds per item need 
not be considered.
    (3)(i) Where it is expected that more than 33 percent of a carline, 
within an engine-system combination will be equipped with an item of 
(whether that item is standard equipment or an option) that can 
reasonably be expected to influence emissions, then such items shall 
actually be installed (unless excluded under paragraph (g)(3)(ii) of 
this section) on all emission data and durability data vehicles of that 
carline, within that engine-system combination, on which the items are 
intended to be offered in production. Items that can reasonably be 
expected to influence emissions are: air conditioning, power steering, 
power brakes and other items determined by the Administrator.
    (ii) If the manufacturer determines by test data or engineering 
evaluation that the actual installation of the optional equipment 
required by paragraph (g)(3)(i) of this section does not affect the 
emissions or fuel economy values, the optional equipment need not be 
installed on the test vehicle.
    (iii) The weight of the options shall be included in the design curb 
weight and also be represented in the weight of the test vehicles.
    (iv) The engineering evaluation, including any test data, used to 
support the deletion of optional equipment from test vehicles, shall be 
maintained by the manufacturer and shall be made available to the 
Administrator upon request.
    (4) Where it is expected that 33 percent or less of a carline, 
within an engine system combination will be equipped with an item of 
(whether that item is standard equipment or an option) that can 
reasonably be expected to influence emissions, that item shall not be 
installed on any emission data or durability data vehicles of that 
carline, within that engine-system combination, unless that item is 
standard equipment on the vehicle.
    (h) Alternative Durability Program durability-data vehicles. This 
section applies to light-duty vehicle and light-duty truck durability-
data vehicles selected under the Alternative Durability Program 
described in Sec. 86.085-13.
    (1) In order to update the durability data to be used to determine a 
deterioration factor for each engine family group, the Administrator 
will select durability-data vehicles from the manufacturer's production 
line. Production vehicles will be selected from each model year's 
production for those vehicles certified using the Alternative Durability 
Program procedures.
    (i) The Administrator shall select the production durability-data 
vehicle designs from the designs that the manufacturer offers for sale. 
For each model year and for each engine family group, the Administrator 
may select production durability-data vehicle designs of equal number to 
the number of engine families within the engine family group, up to a 
maximum of three vehicles.
    (ii) The production durability-data vehicles representing the 
designs selected in paragraph (h)(1)(i) of this section will be randomly 
selected from the manufacturer's production. The Administrator will make 
these random

[[Page 101]]

selections unless the manufacturer (with prior approval of the 
Administrator) elects to make the random selections.
    (iii) The manufacturer may select additional production durability-
data vehicle designs from within the engine family group. The production 
durability-data vehicles representing these designs shall be randomly 
selected from the manufacturer s production in accordance with paragraph 
(h)(l)(ii) of this section.
    (iv) For each production durability-data vehicle selected under 
paragraph (h)(1) of this section, the manufacturer shall provide to the 
Administrator (before the vehicle is tested or begins service 
accumulation) the vehicle identification number. Before the vehicle 
begins service accumulation the manufacturer shall also provide the 
Administrator with a description of the durability-data vehicle as 
specified by the Administrator.
    (v) In lieu of testing a production durability-data vehicle selected 
under paragraph (h)(1) of this section, and submitting data therefrom, a 
manufacturer may, with the prior written approval of the Administrator, 
submit exhaust emission data from a production vehicle of the same 
configuration for which all applicable data has previously been 
submitted.
    (2) If, within an existing engine family group, a manufacturer 
requests to certify vehicles of a new design, engine family, emission 
control system, or with any other durability-related design difference, 
the Administrator will determine if the existing engine family group 
deterioration factor is appropriate for the new design. If the 
Administrator cannot make this determination or deems the deterioration 
factor not appropriate, the Administrator shall select preproduction 
durability-data vehicles under the provisions of paragraph (c) of this 
section. If vehicles are then certified using the new design, the 
Administrator may select production vehicles with the new design under 
the provisions of paragraph (h)(1) of this section.
    (3) If a manufacturer reguests to certify vehicles of a new design 
that the Administrator determines are a new engine family group, the 
Administrator shall select preproduction durability data vehicles under 
the provisions of paragraph (c) of this section. If vehicles are then 
certified using the new design, the Administrator may select production 
vehicles of that design under the provisions of paragraph (h)(1) of this 
section.

Sec. 86.090-25  Maintenance.

    (a) Applicability. This section applies to light-duty vehicles, 
light-duty trucks, and heavy-duty engines.
    (1) Maintenance performed on vehicles, engines, subsystems, or 
components used to determine exhaust or evaporative emission 
deterioration factors is classified as either emission-related or non-
emission-related and each of these can be classified as either scheduled 
or unscheduled. Further, some emission-related maintenance is also 
classified as critical emission-related maintenance.
    (b) This section specifies emission-related scheduled maintenance 
for purposes of obtaining durability data and for inclusion in 
maintenance instructions furnished to purchasers of new motor vehicles 
and new motor vehicles engines under Sec. 86.087-38.
    (1) All emission-related scheduled maintenance for purposes of 
obtaining durability data must occur at the same mileage intervals (or 
equivalent intervals if engines, subsystems, or components are used) 
that will be specified in the manufacturer's maintenance instructions 
furnished to the ultimate purchaser of the motor vehicle or engine under 
Sec. 86.088-35. This maintenance schedule may be updated as necessary 
throughout the testing of the vehicle/engine provided that no 
maintenance operation is deleted from the maintenance schedule after the 
operation has been performed on the test vehicle or engine.
    (2) Any emission-related maintenance which is performed on vehicles, 
engines, subsystems, or components must be technologically necessary to 
assure in-use compliance with the emission standards. The manufacturer 
must submit data which demonstrate to the Administrator that all of the

[[Page 102]]

emission-related scheduled maintenance which is to be performed is 
technologically necessary. Scheduled maintenance must be approved by the 
Administrator prior to being performed or being included in the 
maintenance instructions provided to purchasers under Sec. 86.087-38. As 
provided below, EPA has determined that emission-related maintenance at 
shorter intervals than that outlined in paragraphs (b)(3) and (b)(4) of 
this section is not technologically necessary to ensure in-use 
compliance. However, the Administrator may determine that maintenance 
even more restrictive (e.g., longer intervals) than that listed in 
paragraphs (b)(3) and (b)(4) of this section is also not technologically 
necessary.
    (3) For Otto-cycle light-duty vehicles, light-duty trucks and heavy 
duty engines, emission-related maintenance in addition to, or at shorter 
intervals than, the following will not be accepted as technologically 
necessary, except as provided in paragraph (b)(7) of this section.
    (i)(A) The cleaning or replacement of light-duty vehicle or light-
duty truck spark plugs at 30,000 miles of use and at 30,000 mile 
intervals thereafter.
    (B) The cleaning or replacement of Otto-cycle heavy duty engine 
spark plugs at 25,000 miles (or 750 hours) of use and at 25,000 mile 
intervals (or 750-hour) intervals thereafter, for engines certified for 
use with unleaded fuel only.
    (4) For diesel powered light-duty vehicles, light-duty trucks, and 
heavy-duty engines, emission-related maintenance in addition to, or at 
shorter intervals than, the following will not be accepted as 
technologically necessary, except as provided in paragraph (b)(7) of 
this section.
    (i) For light-duty vehicles, the adjustment, cleaning, repair, or 
replacement of the following may not be performed within the 50,000-mile 
useful life of the vehicle:
    (A) Exhaust gas recirculation system (including all related filters 
and control valves).
    (B) Positive crankcase ventilation valve.
    (C) Fuel injectors.
    (D) Turbocharger.
    (E) Electronic engine control unit and its associated sensors and 
actuators.
    (F) Particulate trap or trap-oxidizer system (including related 
components).
    (ii) For light-duty trucks and heavy-duty engines, the adjustment, 
cleaning, repair, or replacement of the following at 50,000 miles (or 
1,500 hours) of use and at 50,000-mile (or 1,500-hour) intervals 
thereafter:
    (A) Exhaust gas recirculation system (including all related filters 
and control valves).
    (B) Positive crankcase ventilation valve.
    (C) Fuel injector tips (cleaning only).
    (iii) The following maintenance at 100,000 miles (or 3,000 hours) of 
use and at 100,000-mile (or 3,000-hour) intervals thereafter for light-
duty trucks and light heavy-duty engines, or, at 150,000 miles (or 4,500 
hours) of use and at 150,000-mile (or 4,500-hour) intervals thereafter 
for medium and heavy-duty engines: The adjustment, cleaning, repair, or 
replacement of:
    (A) Fuel injectors.
    (B) Turbocharger.
    (C) Electronic engine control unit and its associated sensors and 
actuators.
    (D) Particulate trap or trap-oxidizer system (including related 
components).
    (5) [Reserved]
    (6)(i) The following components are currently defined as critical 
emission-related components:
    (A) Catalytic converter.
    (B) Air injection system components.
    (C) Electronic engine control unit and its associated sensors 
(including oxygen sensor if installed) and actuators.
    (D) Exhaust gas recirculation system (including all related filters 
and control valves).
    (E) Positive crankcase ventilation valve.
    (F) Evaporative emission control system components (excluding 
canister air filter).
    (G) Particulate trap or trap-oxidizer system.
    (ii) All critical emission-related scheduled maintenance must have a 
reasonable likelihood of being performed in-use. The manufacturer shall 
be required to show the reasonable

[[Page 103]]

likelihood of such maintenance being performed in-use, and such showing 
shall be made prior to the performance of the maintenance on the 
durability data vehicle. Critical emission-related scheduled maintenance 
items which satisfy one of the following conditions will be accepted as 
having a reasonable likelihood of the maintenance item being performed 
in-use:
    (A) Data are presented which establish for the Administrator a 
connection between emissions and vehicle performance such that as 
emissions increase due to lack of maintenance, vehicle performance will 
simultaneously deteriorate to a point unacceptable for typical driving.
    (B) Survey data are submitted which adequately demonstrate to the 
Administrator that, at an 80 percent confidence level, 80 percent of 
such engines already have this critical maintenance item performed in-
use at the recommended interval(s).
    (C) A clearly displayed visible signal system approved by the 
Administrator is installed to alert the vehicle driver that maintenance 
is due. A signal bearing the message ``maintenance needed'' or ``check 
engine,'' or a similar message approved by the Administrator, shall be 
actuated at the appropriate mileage point or by component failure. This 
signal must be continuous while the engine is in operation, and not be 
easily eliminated without performance of the required maintenance. 
Resetting the signal shall be a required step in the maintenance 
operation. The method for resetting the signal system shall be approved 
by the Administrator.
    (D) A manufacturer may desire to demonstrate through a survey that a 
critical maintenance item is likely to be performed without a visible 
signal on a maintenance item for which there is no prior in-use 
experience without the signal. To that end, the manufacturer may in a 
given model year market up to 200 randomly selected vehicles per 
critical emission-related maintenance item without such visible signals, 
and monitor the performance of the critical maintenance item by the 
owners to show compliance with paragraph (b)(6)(ii)(B) of this section. 
This option is restricted to two consecutive model years and may not be 
repeated until any previous survey has been completed. If the critical 
maintenance involves more than one engine family, the sample will be 
sales weighted to ensure that it is representative of all the families 
in question.
    (E) The manufacturer provides the maintenance free of charge, and 
clearly informs the customer that the maintenance is free in the 
instructions provided under Sec. 86.087-38.
    (F) Any other method which the Administrator approves as 
establishing a reasonable likelihood that the critical maintenance will 
be performed in-use.
    (iii) Visible signal systems used under paragraph (b)(6)(ii)(C) of 
this section are considered an element of design of the emission control 
system. Therefore, disabling, resetting, or otherwise rendering such 
signals inoperative without also performing the indicated maintenance 
procedure is a prohibited act under section 203(a)(3) of the Clean Air 
Act, as amended in August 1977 (42 U.S.C. 7522(a)(3)).
    (7) Changes to scheduled maintenance. (i) For maintenance practices 
that existed prior to the 1980 model year, only the maintenance items 
listed in paragraphs (b)(3) and (b)(4) of this section are currently 
considered by EPA to be emission-related. The Administrator may, 
however, determine additional scheduled maintenance items that existed 
prior to the 1980 model year to be emission-related by announcement in a 
Federal Register Notice. In no event may this notification occur later 
than September 1 of the calendar year two years prior to the affected 
model year.
    (ii) In the case of any new scheduled maintenance, the manufacturer 
must submit a request for approval to the Administrator for any 
maintenance that it wishes to recommend to purchasers and perform during 
durability determination. New scheduled maintenance is that maintenance 
which did not exist prior to the 1980 model year, including that which 
is a direct result of the implementation of new technology not found in 
production prior to the 1980 model year. The manufacturer must also 
include its recommendations as to the category (i.e., emission-related 
or non-emission- related, critical or non-critical) of the subject 
maintenace and, for suggested emission-related

[[Page 104]]

maintenance, the maximum feasible maintenance interval. Such requests 
must include detailed evidence supporting the need for the maintenance 
requested, and supporting data or other substantiation for the 
recommended maintenance category and for the interval suggested for 
emission-related maintenance. Requests for new scheduled maintenance 
must be approved prior to the introduction of the new maintenance. The 
Administrator will then designate the maintenance as emission-related or 
non-emission-related. For maintenance items established as emission-
related, the Administrator will further designate the maintenance as 
critical if the component which receives the maintenance is a critical 
component under paragraph (b)(6) of this section. For each maintenance 
item designated as emission-related, the Administrator will also 
establish a technologically necessary maintenance interval, based on 
industry data and any other information available to EPA. Designations 
of emission-related maintenance items, along with their identification 
as critical or non-critical, and establishment of technologically 
necessary maintenance intervals, will be announced in the Federal 
Register.
    (iii) Any manufacturer may request a hearing on the Administrator's 
determinations in paragraph (b)(7) of this section. The request shall be 
in writing, and shall include a statement specifying the manufacturer's 
objections to the Administrator's determinations, and data in support of 
such objections. If, after review of the request and supporting data, 
the Administrator finds that the request raises a substantial factual 
issue, he shall provide the manufacturer a hearing in accordance with 
Sec. 86.078-6 with respect to such issue.
    (c) Non-emission-related scheduled maintenance which is reasonable 
and technologically necessary (e.g., oil change, oil filter change, fuel 
filter change, air filter change, cooling system maintenance, adjustment 
of idle speed, governor, engine bolt torque, valve lash, injector lash, 
timing, etc.) may be performed on durability-data vehicles at the 
intervals recommended by the manufacturer to the ultimate purchaser.
    (d) Unscheduled maintenance on light-duty durability data vehicles. 
(1) Unscheduled maintenance may be performed during the testing used to 
determine deterioration factors, except as provided in paragraphs (d)(2) 
and (d)(3) of this section, only under the following provisions:
    (i) A fuel injector or spark plug may be changed if a persistent 
misfire is detected.
    (ii) Readjustment of an Otto-cycle vehicle cold-start enrichment 
system may be performed if there is a problem of stalling.
    (iii) Readjustment of the engine idle speed (curb idle and fast 
idle) may be performed in addition to that performed as scheduled 
maintenance under paragraph (c) of this section, if the idle speed 
exceeds the manufacturer's recommended idle speed by 300 rpm or more, or 
if there is a problem of stalling.
    (2) Any other unscheduled vehicle, emission control system, or fuel 
system adjustment, repair, removal, disassembly, cleaning, or 
replacement during testing to determine deterioration factors shall be 
performed only with the advance approval of the Administrator. Such 
approval will be given if the Administrator:
    (i) Has made a preliminary determination that the part failure or 
system malfunction, or the repair of such failure or malfunction, does 
not render the vehicle or engine unrepresentative of vehicles or engines 
in-use, and does not require direct access to the combustion chamber, 
except for spark plug, fuel injection component, or removable prechamber 
removal or replacement; and,
    (ii) Has made a determination that the need for maintenance or 
repairs is indicated by an overt indication of malfunction such as 
persistent misfiring, engine stalling, overheating, fluid leakage, loss 
of oil pressure, excessive fuel consumption or excessive power loss. The 
Administrator shall be given the opportunity to verify the existence of 
an overt indication of part failure and/or vehicle/engine malfunction 
(e.g., misfiring, stalling, black smoke), or an activation of an audible 
and/or visible

[[Page 105]]

signal, prior to the performance of any maintenance to which such overt 
indication or signal is relevant under the provisions of this section.
    (3) Emission measurement may not be used as a means of determining 
the need for unscheduled maintenance under paragraph (d)(2) of this 
section, except under the following conditions:
    (i) The Administrator may approve unscheduled maintenance on 
durability-data vehicles based upon a significant change in emission 
levels that indicates a vehicle or engine malfunction. In these cases 
the Administrator may first approve specific diagnostic procedures to 
identify the source of the problem. The Administrator may further 
approve of specific corrections to the problem after the problem has 
been identified. The Administrator may only approve the corrective 
action after it is determined that:
    (A) The malfunction was caused by nonproduction build practices or 
by a previously undetected design problem,
    (B) The malfunction will not occur in production vehicles or engines 
in-use, and
    (C) The deterioration factor generated by the durability-data 
vehicle or engine will remain unaffected by the malfunction or by the 
corrective action (e.g., the malfunction was present for only a short 
period of time before detection, replacement parts are functionally 
representative of the proper mileage or hours, etc.).
    (ii) Following any unscheduled maintenance approved under paragraph 
(d)(3)(i) of this section, the manufacturer shall perform an after-
maintenance emissions test. If the Administrator determines that the 
after-maintenance emission levels for any pollutant indicates that the 
deterioration factor is no longer representative of production, the 
Administrator may disqualify the durability-data vehicle or engine.
    (4) If the Administrator determines that part failure or system 
malfunction occurrence and/or repair rendered the vehicle/engine 
unrepresentative of vehicles in-use, the vehicle/engine shall not be 
used for determining deterioration factors.
    (5) Repairs to vehicle components of a durability data vehicle other 
than the engine, emission control system, or fuel system, shall be 
performed only as a result of part failure, vehicle system malfunction, 
or with the advance approval of the Administrator.
    (e) Maintenance on emission data vehicles and engines. (1) 
Adjustment of engine idle speed on emission data vehicles may be 
performed once before the low-mileage/low-hour emission test point. Any 
other engine, emission control system, or fuel system adjustment, 
repair, removal, disassembly, cleaning, or replacement on emission data 
vehicles shall be performed only with the advance approval of the 
Administrator.
    (2) Maintenance on light-duty truck emission-data vehicles selected 
under Sec. 86.090-24(b)(1) (v) or (vii), and permitted to be tested for 
purposes of Sec. 86.090-23(c)(1)(ii) under the provisions of 
Sec. 86.090-24(b)(2), may be performed in conjunction with emission 
control system modifications at the low-mileage test point, and shall be 
performed in accordance with the maintenance instructions to be provided 
to the ultimate purchaser required under Sec. 86.087-38.
    (3) Maintenance on those light-duty truck emission-data vehicles 
selected under 86.090-24(b)(1)(v) which are not capable of being 
modified in the field for the purpose of complying with emissions 
standards at an altitude other than that intended by the original 
design, may be performed in conjunction with the emission control system 
modifications at the low-mileage test point, and shall be approved in 
advance by the Administrator.
    (4) Repairs to vehicle components of an emission data vehicle other 
than the engine, emission control system, or fuel system, shall be 
performed only as a result of part failure, vehicle system malfunction, 
or with the advance approval of the Administrator.
    (f) Equipment, instruments, or tools may not be used to identify 
malfunctioning, maladjusted, or defective engine components unless the 
same or equivalent equipment, instruments, or tools will be available to 
dealerships and other service outlets and:
    (1) Are used in conjunction with scheduled maintenance on such 
components, or

[[Page 106]]

    (2) Are used subsequent to the identification of a vehicle or engine 
malfunction, as provided in paragraph (d)(2) of this section for 
durability data vehicles or in paragraph (e)(1) of this section for 
emission-data vehicles, or
    (3) Unless specifically authorized by the Administrator.
    (g)(1) Paragraph (g) of this section applies to light-duty vehicles.
    (2) Complete emission tests (see Secs. 86.106 through 86.145) are 
required, unless waived by the Administrator, before and after scheduled 
maintenance approved for durability data vehicles. The manufacturer may 
perform emission tests before unscheduled maintenance. Complete emission 
tests are required after unscheduled maintenance which may reasonably be 
expected to affect emissions. The Administrator may waive the 
requirement to test after unscheduled maintenance. These test data may 
be submitted weekly to the Administrator, but shall be air posted or 
delivered within 7 days after completion of the tests, along with a 
complete record of all pertinent maintenance, including a preliminary 
engineering report of any malfunction diagnosis and the corrective 
action taken. A complete engineering report shall be delivered to the 
Administrator concurrently with the manufacturer's application for 
certification.
    (h) All test data, maintenance reports, and required engineering 
reports shall be compiled and provided to the Administrator in 
accordance with Sec. 86.090-23.

Sec. 86.090-26  Mileage and service accumulation; emission requirements.

    (a)(1) Paragraph (a) of this section applies to light-duty vehicles.
    (2) The procedure for mileage accumulation will be the Durability 
Driving Schedule as specified in appendix IV to this part. A modified 
procedure may also be used if approved in advance by the Administrator. 
Except with the advance approval of the Administrator, all vehicles will 
accumulate mileage at a measured curb weight which is within 100 pounds 
of the estimated curb weight. If the loaded vehicle weight is within 100 
pounds of being included in the next higher inertia weight class as 
specified in Sec. 86.129, the manufacturer may elect to conduct the 
respective emission tests at higher loaded vehicle weight.
    (3) Emission-data vehicles. Unless otherwise provided for in 
Sec. 86.090-23(a), emission-data vehicles shall be operated and tested 
as follows:
    (i) Otto-cycle. (A) The manufacturer shall determine, for engine 
family, the mileage at which the engine-system combination is stabilized 
for emission-data testing. The manufacturer shall maintain, and provide 
to the Administrator if requested, a record of the rationale used in 
making this determination. The manufacturer may elect to accumulate 
4,000 miles on each test vehicle within an engine family without making 
a determination. Any vehicle used to represent emission-data vehicle 
selections under Sec. 86.090-24(b)(1) shall be equipped with an engine 
and emission control system that has accumulated at least the mileage 
determined under this paragraph. Fuel economy data generated from 
certification vehicles selected in accordance with Sec. 86.090-24(b)(1) 
with engine-system combinations that have accumulated more than 10,000 
kilometers (6,200 miles) shall be factored in accordance with 
Sec. 600.006-82(c). Complete exhaust and evaporative (if required) 
emission tests shall be conducted for each emission-data vehicle 
selection under Sec. 86.090-24(b)(1). The Administrator may determine 
under Sec. 86.090-24(f) that no testing is required.
    (B) Emission tests for emission-data vehicle(s) selected for testing 
under Sec. 86.090-24(b)(1) (v) or (viii) shall be conducted at the 
mileage at which the engine system combination is stabilized for 
emission testing under high-altitude conditions.
    (C) Exhaust and evaporative emissions tests for emission-data 
vehicle(s) selected for testing under Sec. 86.090-24(b)(1) (i), (ii), 
(iii), (iv), or (vii)(B) shall be conducted at the mileage at which the 
engine-system combination is stabilized for emission testing under low-
altitude conditions.
    (D) For each engine family, the manufacturer will either select one 
vehicle previously selected under Sec. 86.090-24(b)(1) (i) through (iv) 
to be tested

[[Page 107]]

under high-altitude conditions or provide a statement in accordance with 
Sec. 86.090-24(b)(1)(v). Vehicles shall meet emission standards under 
both low- and high-altitude conditions without manual adjustments or 
modifications. In addition, any emission control device used to conform 
with the emission standards under high-altitude conditions shall 
initially actuate (automatically) no higher than 4,000 feet above sea 
level.
    (ii) Diesel. (A) The manufacturer shall determine, for each engine 
family, the mileage at which the engine-system combination is stabilized 
for emission-data testing. The manufacturer shall maintain, and provide 
to the Administrator if requested, a record of the rationale used in 
making this determination. The manufacturer may elect to accumulate 
4,000 miles on each test vehicle within an engine family without making 
a determination. Any vehicle used to represent emission-data vehicle 
selections under Sec. 86.090-24(b)(1) shall be equipped with an engine 
and emission control system that has accumulated at least the mileage 
determined under this paragraph. Fuel economy data generated from 
certification vehicles selected in accordance with Sec. 86.090-24(b)(1) 
with engine-system combinations that have accumulated more than 10,000 
kilometers (6,200 miles) shall be factored in accordance with 
Sec. 600.006-82(c). Complete exhaust emission tests shall be conducted 
for each emission-data vehicle selection under Sec. 86.090-24(b)(1). The 
Administrator may determine under Sec. 86.090-24(f) that no testing is 
required.
    (B) Emission tests for emission-data vehicle(s) selected for testing 
under Sec. 86.090-24(b)(1)(v) shall be conducted at the mileage at which 
the engine-system combination is stabilized for emission testing under 
low-altitude conditions.
    (C) Exhaust and evaporative emission tests for emission-data 
vehicle(s) selected for testing under Sec. 86.090-24(b)(1) (i) through 
(iv) shall be conducted at the mileage at which the engine-system 
combination is stabilized for emission testing under low-altitude 
conditions.
    (D) For each engine family, the manufacturer will either select one 
vehicle previously selected under Sec. 86.090-24(b)(1) (i) through (iv) 
to be tested under high-altitude conditions or provide a statement in 
accordance with Sec. 86.090-24(b)(1)(v). Vehicles shall meet emission 
standards under both low- and high-altitude conditions without manual 
adjustments or modifications. In addition, any emission control device 
used to conform with the emission standards under high-altitude 
conditions shall initially actuate (automatically) no higher than 4,000 
feet above sea level.
    (4)(i) Durability data vehicles. (A) Unless otherwise provided for 
in Sec. 86.090-23(a), each durability-data vehicle shall be driven, with 
all emission control systems installed and operating, for 50,000 miles 
or such lesser distance as the Administrator may agree to as meeting the 
objective of this procedure.
    (B) Complete exhaust emission tests shall be made at test point 
mileage intervals that the manufacturer determines.
    (C) At a minimum, two complete exhaust emission tests shall be made. 
The first test shall be made at a distance not greater than 6,250 miles. 
The last shall be made at 50,000 miles.
    (D) The mileage interval between test points must be of equal length 
except for the interval between zero miles and the first test, and any 
interval before or after testing conducted in conjunction with vehicle 
maintenance as specified in Sec. 86.090-25(g)(2).
    (ii) The manufacturer may, at its option, alter the durability-data 
vehicle at the selected test point to represent emission-data vehicle(s) 
within the same engine/system combination and perform emission tests on 
the altered vehicle. Upon completion of emission testing, the 
manufacturer may return the test vehicle to the durability-data vehicle 
configuration prior to the continuation of mileage accumulation.
    (5)(i) All tests required by this subpart on emission-data vehicles 
shall be conducted at a mileage equal to or greater than the mileage the 
manufacturer determines under paragraph (a)(3) of this section.
    (ii) All tests required by this subpart on durability-data vehicles 
shall be

[[Page 108]]

conducted within 250 miles of each of the test points.
    (6)(i)(A) The manufacturer may conduct multiple tests at any test 
point at which the data are intended to be used in the deterioration 
factor. At each test point where multiple tests are conducted, the test 
results from all valid tests shall be averaged to determine the data 
point to be used in the deterioration factor calculation, except under 
paragraph (a)(6)(i)(B) of this section. The test results from emission 
tests performed before maintenance affecting emissions shall not be 
averaged with test results after the maintenance.
    (B) The manufacturer is not required to average multiple tests if 
the manufacturer conducts no more than three tests at each test point 
and if the number of tests at each test point is equal. All test points 
must be treated the same for all exhaust pollutants.
    (ii) The results of all emission testing shall be supplied to the 
Administrator. The manufacturer shall furnish to the Administrator 
explanation for voiding any test. The Administrator will determine if 
voiding the test was appropriate based upon the explanation given by the 
manufacturer for the voided test. Tests between test points may be 
conducted as required by the Administrator. Data from all tests 
(including voided tests) may be submitted weekly to the Administrator, 
but shall be air posted or delivered to the Administrator within 7 days 
after completion of the test. In addition, all test data shall be 
compiled and provided to the Administrator in accordance with 
Sec. 86.090-23. Where the Administrator conducts a test on a durability-
data vehicle at a prescribed test point, the results of that test will 
be used in the calculation of the deterioration factor.
    (iii) The results of all emission tests shall be rounded, in 
accordance with ASTM E 29-67, to the number of decimal places contained 
in the applicable emission standard expressed to one additional 
significant figure.
    (7) Whenever a manufacturer intends to operate and test a vehicle 
which may be used for emission or durability data, the manufacturer 
shall retain in its records all information concerning all emissions 
tests and maintenance, including vehicle alterations to represent other 
vehicle selections. For emission-data vehicles, this information shall 
be submitted, including the vehicle description and specification 
information required by the Administrator, to the Administrator 
following the emission-data test. For durability-data vehicles, this 
information shall be submitted following the 5,000-mile test.
    (8) Once a manufacturer submits the information required in 
paragraphs (a)(7) of this section for a durability-data vehicle, the 
manufacturer shall continue to run the vehicle to 50,000 miles, and the 
data from the vehicle will be used in the calculations under 
Sec. 86.090-28. Discontinuation of a durability-data vehicle shall be 
allowed only with the consent of the Administrator.
    (9)(i) The Administrator may elect to operate and test any test 
vehicle during all or any part of the mileage accumulation and testing 
procedure. In such cases, the manufacturer shall provide the vehicle(s) 
to the Administrator with all information necessary to conduct this 
testing.
    (ii) The test procedures in Secs. 86.106 through 86.145 will be 
followed by the Administrator. The Administrator will test the vehicles 
at each test point. Maintenance may be performed by the manufacturer 
under such conditions as the Administrator may prescribe.
    (iii) The data developed by the Administrator for the engine-system 
combination shall be combined with any applicable data supplied by the 
manufacturer on other vehicles of that combination to determine the 
applicable deterioration factors for the combination. In the case of a 
significant discrepancy between data developed by the Administrator and 
that submitted by the manufacturer, the Administrator's data shall be 
used in the determination of deterioration factors.
    (10) Emission testing of any type with respect to any certification 
vehicle other than that specified in this part is not allowed except as 
such testing may be specifically authorized by the Administrator.
    (11) This section does not apply to testing conducted to meet the 
requirements of Sec. 86.090-23(b)(2).

[[Page 109]]

    (b)(1) Paragraph (b) of this section applies to light-duty trucks.
    (2) There are three types of mileage or service accumulation 
applicable to light-duty trucks:
    (i) Mileage or service accumulation on vehicles, engines, 
subsystems, or components selected by the manufacturer under 
Sec. 86.090-24(c)(2)(i). The manufacturer determines the form and extent 
of this mileage or service accumulation, consistent with good 
engineering practice, and describes it in the application for 
certification.
    (ii) Mileage accumulation of the duration selected by the 
manufacturer on emission-data vehicles selected under Sec. 86.090-
24(b)(1). The procedure for mileage accumulation will be the Durability 
Driving Schedule as specified in appendix IV to this part. A modified 
procedure may also be used if approved in advance by the Administrator. 
Except with the advance approval of the Administrator, all vehicles will 
accumulate mileage at a measured curb weight which is within 100 pounds 
of the estimated curb weight. If the loaded vehicle weight is within 100 
pounds of being included in the next higher inertia weight class as 
specified in Sec. 86.129, the manufacturer may elect to conduct the 
respective emission tests at the test weight corresponding to the higher 
loaded vehicle weight.
    (iii) Service or mileage accumulation which may be part of the test 
procedures used by the manufacturer to establish evaporative emission 
deterioration factors.
    (3) Exhaust emission deterioration factors will be determined on the 
basis of the mileage or service accumulation described in paragraph 
(b)(2)(i) of this section and related testing, according to the 
manufacturer's procedures.
    (4) Each emission-data vehicle shall be operated and tested as 
follows:
    (i) Otto-cycle. (A) The manufacturer shall determine, for each 
engine family, the mileage at which the engine-system combination is 
stabilized for emission-data testing. The manufacturer shall maintain,

accumulate 4,000 miles on each test vehicle within an engine family 
without making a determination. Any vehicle used to represent emission-
data vehicle selections under Sec. 86.090-24(b)(1) shall be equipped 
with an engine and emission control system that has accumulated at least 
the mileage determined under this paragraph. Fuel economy data generated 
from certification vehicles selected in accordance with Sec. 86.090-
24(b)(1) with engine-system combinations that have accumulated more than 
10,000 kilometers (6,200 miles) shall be factored in accordance with 
Sec. 600.006-82(c). Complete exhaust emission tests shall be conducted 
for each emission-data vehicle selection under Sec. 86.090-24(b)(1). The 
Administrator may determine under Sec. 86.090-24(f) that no testing is 
required.
    (B) Emission tests for emission-data vehicle(s) selected for testing 
under Sec. 86.090-24(b)(1) (v) or (viii) shall be conducted at the

order to conform to emission standards at high altitude, such 
adjustments or modifications shall be made to the test vehicle selected 
under Sec. 86.090-24(b)(1) (v) and (viii) (in accordance with the 
instructions to be provided to the ultimate purchaser) before being 
tested under high-altitude conditions.
    (ii) Diesel. (A) The manufacturer shall determine, for each engine 
family, the mileage at which the engine-system combination is stabilized 
for emission-data testing. The manufacturer shall maintain, and provide 
to the Administrator if requested, a record of the rationale used in 
making this determination. The manufacturer may elect to accumulate 
4,000 miles on each test vehicle within an engine family without making 
a determination. Any vehicle used to represent emission-data vehicle

engine-system combination is stabilized for emission testing or at the 
6,436-kilometer (4,000-mile) test point under low-altitude conditions.
    (D) If the manufacturer recommends adjustments or modifications in 
order to conform to emission standards at high altitude, such 
adjustments or modifications shall be made to the test vehicle selected 
under Sec. 86.090-24(b)(1) (v) and (viii) (in accordance with the 
instructions to be provided to the ultimate purchaser) before being 
tested under high-altitude conditions.
    (ii) Diesel. (A) The manufacturer shall determine, for each engine 
family, the mileage at which the engine-system combination is stabilized 
for emission-data testing. The manufacturer shall maintain, and provide 
to the Administrator if requested, a record of the rationale used in 
making this determination. The manufacturer may elect to accumulate 
4,000 miles on each test vehicle within an engine family without making 
a determination. Any vehicle used to represent emission-data vehicle 
selections under Sec. 86.090-24(b)(1) shall be equipped with an engine 
and emission control system that has accumulated at least the mileage 
determined under this paragraph. Fuel economy data generated from 
certification vehicles selection in accordance with Sec. 86.090-24(b)(1) 
with engine-system combinations that have accumulated more than 10,000 
kilometers (6,200 miles) shall be factored in accordance with 
Sec. 600.006-82(c). Complete exhaust emission tests shall be conducted 
for each emission-data vehicle selection under Sec. 86.090-24(b)(1). The 
Administrator may determine under Sec. 86.090-24(f) that no testing is

    (D) If the manufacturer recommends adjustments or modifications in 
order to conform to emission standards at high altitude, such 
adjustments or modifications shall be made to the test vehicle selected 
under Sec. 86.090-24(b)(1) (v) and (viii) (in accordance with the 
instructions to be provided to the ultimate purchaser) before being 
tested under high-altitude conditions.
    (iii) [Reserved]
    (iv) All tests required by this subpart on emission-data vehicles 
shall be conducted at a mileage equal to or greater than the mileage the 
manufacturer determines under paragraph (b)(4) of this section.
    (c)(1) Paragraph (c) of this section applies to heavy-duty engines.
    (2) There are two types of service accumulation applicable to heavy-
duty engines:
    (i) Service accumulation on engines, subsystems, or components 
selected by the manufacturer under Sec. 86.088-

[[Page 111]]

24(c)(3)(i). The manufacturer determines the form and extent of this 
service accumulation, consistent with good engineering practice, and 
describes it in the application for certification.
    (ii) Dynamometer service accumulation on emission-data engines 
selected under Sec. 86.090-24(b) (2) or (3). The manufacturer determines 
the engine operating schedule to be used for dynamometer service 
accumulation, consistent with good engineering practice. A single engine 
operating schedule shall be used for all engines in an engine family-
control system combination. Operating schedules may be different for 
different combinations.
    (3) Exhaust emission deterioration factors will be determined on the 
basis of the service accumulation described in paragraph (b)(2)(i) of 
this section and related testing, according to the manufacturer's 
procedures.
    (4) The manufacturer shall determine, for each engine family, the 
number of hours at which the engine system combination is stabilized for 
emission-data testing. The manufacturer shall maintain, and provide to 
the Administrator if requested a record of the rationale used in making 
this determination. The manufacturer may elect to accumulate 125 hours 
on each test engine within an engine family without making a 
determination. Any engine used to represent emission-data engine 
selections under Sec. 86.090-24(b)(2) shall be equipped with an engine 
system combination that has accumulated at least the number of hours 
determined under this paragraph. Complete exhaust emission tests shall 
be conducted for each emission-data engine selection under Sec. 86.090-
24(b)(2). Evaporative emission controls need not be connected provided 
normal operating conditions are maintained in the engine induction 
system. The Administrator may determine under Sec. 86.090-24(f) that no 
testing is required.
    (d)(1) Paragraph (d) of this section applies to both light-duty 
trucks and heavy-duty engines.
    (2)(i) The results of all emission testing shall be supplied to the 
Administrator. The manufacturer shall furnish to the Administrator 
explanation for voiding any test. The Administrator will determine if 
voiding the test was appropriate based upon the explanation given by the 
manufacturer for the voided test. Tests between test points may be 
conducted as required by the Administrator. Data from all tests 
(including voided tests) may be submitted weekly to the Administrator, 
but shall be air posted or delivered to the Administrator within 7 days 
after completion of the tests. In addition, all test data shall be 
compiled and provided to the Administrator in accordance with 
Sec. 86.090-23. Where the Administrator conducts a test on a durability-
data vehicle at a prescribed test point, the results of that test will 
be used in the calculation of the deterioration factor.
    (ii) The results of all emission tests shall be recorded and 
reported to the Administrator. These test results shall be rounded, in 
accordance with ASTM E 29-67, to the number of decimal places contained 
in the applicable emission standard expressed to one additional 
significant figure.
    (3) Whenever a manufacturer intends to operate and test a vehicle 
(or engine) which may be used for emission data, the manufacturer shall 
retain in its records all information concerning all emissions tests and 
maintenance, including vehicle (or engine) alterations to represent 
other vehicle (or engine) selections. This information shall be 
submitted, including the vehicle (or engine) description and 
specification information required by the Administrator, to the 
Administrator following the emission-data test.
    (4)-(5) [Reserved]
    (6) Emission testing of any type with respect to any certification 
vehicle or engine other than that specified in this subpart is not 
allowed except as such testing may be specifically authorized by the 
Administrator.

Sec. 86.090-27  Special test procedures.

    (a) The Administrator may, on the basis of written application by a 
manufacturer, prescribe test procedures, other than those set forth in 
this part, for any light-duty vehicle, light-duty truck, heavy-duty 
engine, or heavy-duty vehicle which the Administrator determines is not 
susceptible to satisfactory testing by the procedures set forth in this 
part.

[[Page 112]]

    (b) If the manufacturer does not submit a written application for 
use of special test procedures but the Administrator determines that a 
light-duty vehicle, light-duty truck, heavy-duty engine, or heavy-duty 
vehicle is not susceptible to satisfactory testing by the procedures set 
forth in this part, the Administrator shall notify the manufacturer in 
writing and set forth the reasons for such rejection in accordance with 
the provisions of Sec. 86.090-22(c).

Sec. 86.091-2  Definitions.

    The definitions of Sec. 86.090-2 remain effective. The definitions 
listed in this section apply beginning with the 1991 model year.
    Urban bus means a heavy heavy-duty diesel-powered passenger-carrying 
vehicle with a load capacity of fifteen or more passengers and intended 
primarily for intra-city operation, i.e., within the confines of a city 
or greater metropolitan area. Urban bus operation is characterized by 
short rides and frequent stops. To facilitate this type of operation, 
more than one set of quick-operating entrance and exit doors would 
normally be installed. Since fares are usually paid in cash or tokens 
rather than purchased in advance in the form of tickets, urban buses 
would normally have equipment installed for collection of fares. Urban 
buses are also typically characterized by the absence of equipment and 
facilities for long distance travel, e.g., rest rooms, large luggage 
compartments, and facilities for stowing carry-on luggage. The useful 
life for urban buses is the same as the useful life for other heavy 
heavy-duty diesel engines.

operated for its benefit to furnish such reasonable assistance without 
charge to EPA whether or not the applicant controls the facility.
    (6) The duty to admit or cause to be admitted any EPA Enforcement 
Officer or EPA authorized representative applies whether or not the 
applicant owns or controls the facility in question and applies both to 
domestic and to foreign manufacturers and facilities. EPA will not 
attempt to make any inspections which it has been informed that local 
law forbids. However, if local law makes it impossible to do what is 
necessary to insure the accuracy of data generated at a facility, no 
informed judgment that a vehicle or engine is certifiable or is covered 
by a certificate can properly be based on those data. It is the 
responsibility of the manufacturer to locate its testing and 
manufacturing facilities in jurisdictions where this situation will not 
arise.
    (7) For purposes of this paragraph:
    (i) Presentation of credentials shall mean display of the document 
designating a person as an EPA Enforcement Officer or EPA authorized 
representative.
    (ii) Where vehicle, component, or engine storage areas or facilities

paragraph (d)(7)(ii) of this section are concerned, operating hours 
shall mean all times during which an assembly line is in operation or 
all times during which testing, maintenance, mileage (or service) 
accumulation, production or compilation of records, or any other 
procedure or activity related to certification testing, to translation 
of designs from the test stage to the production stage, or to vehicle 
(or engine) manufacture or assembly is being carried out in a facility.
    (iv) Reasonable assistance includes, but is not limited to, 
clerical, copying, interpretation and translation services, the making 
available on request of personnel of the facility being inspected during 
their working hours to inform the EPA Enforcement Officer or EPA 
authorized representative of how the facility operates and to answer his

[[Page 116]]

questions, and the performance on request of emissions tests on any 
vehicle (or engine) which is being, has been, or will be used for 
certification testing. Such tests shall be nondestructive, but may 
require appropriate mileage (or service) accumulation. A manufacturer 
may be compelled to cause the personal appearance of any employee at 
such a facility before an EPA Enforcement Officer or EPA authorized 
representative by written request for his appearance, signed by the 
Assistant Administrator for Air and Radiation, served on the 
manufacturer. Any such employee who has been instructed by the 
manufacturer to appear will be entitled to be accompanied, represented, 
and advised by counsel.
    (v) Any entry without 24 hour prior written or oral notification to 
the affected manufacturer shall be authorized in writing by the 
Assistant Administrator for Air and Radiation.
    (8) EPA may void ab initio a certificate of conformity for vehicle 
or engine families introduced into commerce if the manufacturer (or 
contractor for the manufacturer, if applicable) fails to comply with any 
provision of this section.
    (e) EPA Enforcement Officers or EPA authorized representatives are 
authorized to seek a warrant or court order authorizing the EPA 
Enforcement Officers or EPA authorized representatives to conduct 
activities related to entry and access as authorized in this section, as 
appropriate, to execute the functions specified in this section. EPA 
Enforcement Officers or EPA authorized representatives may proceed ex 
parte to obtain a warrant whether or not the Enforcement Officers first 
attempted to seek permission of the manufacturer or the party in charge 
of the facilities in question to conduct activities related to entry and 
access as authorized in this section.
    (f) A manufacturer shall permit EPA Enforcement Officers or EPA 
authorized representatives who present a warrant or court order as 
described in paragraph (e) of this section to conduct activities related 
to entry and access as authorized in this section and as described in 
the warrant or court order. The manufacturer shall cause those in charge 
of its facility or facility operated for its benefit to permit EPA 
Enforcement Officers or EPA authorized representatives to conduct 
activities related to entry and access as authorized in this section 
pursuant to a warrant or court order whether or not the manufacturer 
controls the facility. In the absence of such a warrant or court order, 
EPA Enforcement Officers or EPA authorized representatives may conduct 
activities related to entry and access as authorized in this section 
only upon the consent of the manufacturer or the party in charge of the 
facilities in question.
    (g) It is not a violation of this part or the Clean Air Act for any 
person to refuse to permit EPA Enforcement Officers or EPA authorized 
representatives to conduct activities related to entry and access as 
authorized in this section without a warrant or court order.

Sec. 86.091-9  Emission standards for 1991 and later model year light-duty trucks.

    (a)(1) The standards set forth in paragraphs (a) through (c) of this 
section shall apply to light-duty trucks sold for principal use at other 
than a designated high-altitude location. Exhaust emissions from 1991 
and later model year light-duty trucks shall not exceed:
    (i)(A) Hydrocarbons (for petroleum-fueled Otto-cycle and diesel 
light-duty trucks). 0.80 gram per vehicle mile (0.50 gram per vehicle 
kilometer).
    (B) Total Hydrocarbon Equivalent (for methanol-fueled Otto-cycle and 
diesel light-duty trucks). 0.80 gram per vehicle mile (0.50 gram per 
vehicle kilometer).
    (ii) Carbon monoxide.
    (A) 10 grams per vehicle mile (6.2 grams per vehicle kilometer).
    (B) 0.50 percent of exhaust gas flow at curb idle (for Otto-cycle 
and methanol-fueled diesel light-duty trucks only).
    (iii) Oxides of nitrogen.
    (A) For light-duty trucks up to and including 3,750 lbs loaded 
vehicle weight, 1.2 grams per vehicle mile (0.75 gram per vehicle 
kilometer).
    (B) For light-duty trucks greater loaded vehicle weight, 1.7 grams 
per vehicle mile (1.1 grams per vehicle kilometer).

[[Page 117]]

    (C) A manufacturer may elect to include any light-duty truck engine 
families in the NOX averaging program, provided that it does 
not elect to pay an NCP for noncompliance with any emission standard 
applicable to that light-duty truck family. Trucks produced for sale in 
California or in designated high-altitude areas may be averaged only 
within each of those areas. Petroleum-fueled and methanol-fueled engine 
families may not be averaged together. Otto-cycle and diesel engine 
families may not be averaged together. If the manufacturer elects to 
participate in the NOX averaging program, individual family 
NOX emission limits may not exceed 2.3 grams per mile. If the 
manufacturer elects to average together NOX emissions of 
light-duty trucks subject to the standards of paragraphs (a)(1)(iii)(A) 
and (a)(1)(iii)(B) of this section, its composite NOX 
standard applies to the combined fleets of light-duty trucks up to and 
including, and over, 3750 lbs loaded vehicle weight included in the 
average, and is calculated as defined in Sec. 86.088-2.
    (iv) Particulate (for diesel light-duty trucks only).
    (A) For light-duty trucks up to and including 3,750 lbs loaded 
vehicle weight, 0.26 gram per vehicle mile (0.16 gram per vehicle 
kilometer).
    (B) For light-duty trucks 3,751 lbs and greater loaded vehicle 
weight, 0.13 gram per vehicle mile (0.08 gram per vehicle kilometer).
    (C) A manufacturer may elect to include any diesel light-duty truck 
engine families in the appropriate particulate averaging program 
(petroleum and methanol), provided that it does not elect to pay an NCP 
for noncompliance with any emission standard applicable to that light-
duty truck family. Trucks produced for sale in California or in 
designated high-altitude areas may be averaged only within each of those 
areas, and light-duty trucks subject to the standard of paragraph 
(a)(1)(iv)(B) of this section may be averaged only with other light-duty 
trucks subject to the standard of paragraph (a)(1)(iv)(B) of this 
section. Averaging is not permitted between fuel types. If the 
manufacturer elects to average both light-duty trucks subject to the 
standards of paragraphs (a)(1)(iv)(A) of this section and light-duty 
vehicles together in the appropriate particulate averaging program, its 
composite particulate standard applies to the combined set of light-duty 
vehicles and light-duty trucks that are included in the average and is 
calculated as defined in Sec. 86.088-2.
    (2) The standards set forth in paragraphs (a)(1)(i), (a)(1)(ii)(A), 
(a)(1)(iii), and (a)(1)(iv) of this section refer to the exhaust emitted

duty trucks shall not exceed (compliance with these standards is 
optional for 1991 model year methanol-fueled vehicles):
    (1) Hydrocarbons (for gasoline-fueled light-duty trucks). 2.0 grams 
per test.
    (2) Total Hydrocarbon Equivalent (for methanol-fueled light-duty 
trucks). 2.0 grams per test.
    (3) The standards set forth in paragraphs (b) (1) and (2) of this 
section refer to a composite sample of the fuel evaporative emissions 
collected under the conditions set forth in subpart B of this part and 
measured in accordance with those procedures.
    (c) No crankcase emissions shall be discharged into the ambient 
atmosphere from any 1991 and later model year light-duty truck.
    (d)(1) Model year 1991 and later light-duty trucks sold for 
principal use at a designated high-altitude location shall be capable of 
meeting the following exhaust emission standards when tested under high-
altitude conditions:
    (i)(A) Hydrocarbons (for petroleum-fueled Otto-cycle and diesel 
light-duty trucks). 1.0 grams per vehicle mile (0.62 grams per vehicle 
kilometer).
    (B) Total Hydrocarbon Equivalent (for methanol-fueled Otto-cycle and 
diesel light-duty trucks). 1.0 gram per vehicle mile (0.62 gram per 
vehicle kilometer).

[[Page 118]]

    (ii) Carbon Monoxide. (A) 14 grams per vehicle mile (8.7 grams per 
vehicle kilometer).
    (B) 0.50 percent of exhaust gas flow at curb idle (for Otto-cycle 
and methanol-fueled diesel light duty trucks only).

including 3,750 lbs loaded vehicle weight, 1.2 grams per vehicle mile 
(0.75 grams per vehicle kilometer).
    (B) For light-duty trucks 3,751 lbs and greater loaded vehicle 
weight, 1.7 grams per vehicle mile (1.1 grams per vehicle kilometer).
    (iv) Particulate (for diesel light-duty trucks only). (A) For light-
duty trucks up to and including 3,750 lbs loaded vehicle weight, 0.26 
gram per vehicle mile (0.16 gram per vehicle kilometer).
    (B) For light-duty trucks 3,751 lbs and greater loaded vehicle 
weight, 0.13 gram per vehicle mile (0.08 gram per vehicle kilometer).
    (2) The standards set forth in paragraphs (d)(1)(i), (d)(1)(ii)(A), 
(d)(1)(iii), and (d)(1)(iv) of this section refer to the exhaust emitted 
over a driving schedule as set forth in subpart B of this part and 
measured and calculated in accordance with those procedures. The 
standard set forth in paragraph (d)(1)(ii)(B) of this section refers to 
the exhaust emitted at curb idle and measured and calculated in 
accordance with the procedures set forth in subpart P of this part.
    (e) Fuel evaporative emissions from 1991 and later model year light-
duty trucks sold for principal use at a designated high-altitude 
location, when tested under high-altitude conditions, shall not exceed:
    (1) Hydrocarbons (for gasoline-fueled light-duty trucks). 2.6 grams 
per test.
    (2) Total Hydrocarbon Equivalent (for methanol-fueled light-duty 
trucks). 2.6 grams per test.
    (3) The standards set forth in paragraphs (e) (1) and (2) of this 
section refer to a composite sample of the fuel evaporative emissions 
collected under the conditions set forth in subpart B of this part and 
measured in accordance with those procedures.
    (f) No crankcase emissions shall be discharged into the ambient 
atmosphere from any 1991 and later model year light-duty trucks sold for 
principal use at a designated high-altitude location.
    (g)(1) Any light-duty truck that a manufacturer wishes to certify 
for sale at low altitude must be capable of meeting high-altitude 
emission standards (specified in paragraphs (d) through (f) of this 
section). The manufacturer may specify vehicle adjustments or 
modifications to allow the vehicle to meet high-altitude standards but 
these adjustments or modifications may not alter the vehicle's basic 
engine, inertia weight class, transmission configuration, and axle 
ratio.
    (i) A manufacturer may certify unique configurations to meet the 
high-altitude standards but is not required to certify these vehicle 
configurations to meet the low-altitude standards.
    (ii) Any adjustments or modifications that are recommended to be 
performed on vehicles to satisfy the requirements of paragraph (g)(1) of 
this section:
    (A) Shall be capable of being effectively performed by commercial 
repair facilities, and
    (B) Must be included in the manufacturer's application for 
certification.
    (2) The manufacturer may exempt 1991 and later model year vehicles 
from compliance with the high-altitude emission standards set forth in 
paragraphs (d) and (e) of this section if the vehicles are not intended 
for sale at high altitude and if the following requirements are met. A 
vehicle configuration shall only be considered eligible for exemption if 
the requirements of either paragraph (g)(2) (i), (ii), (iii), or (iv) of 
this section are met.
    (i) Its design parameters (displacement-to-weight ratio (D/W) and 
engine speed-to-vehicle-speed ratio (N/V)) fall within the exempted 
range for that manufacturer for that year. The exempted range is 
determined according to the following procedure:
    (A) The manufacturer shall graphically display the D/W and N/V data 
of all vehicle configurations it will offer for the model year in 
question. The axis of the abscissa shall be D/W (where (D) is the engine 
displacement expressed in cubic centimeters and (W) is the gross vehicle 
weight (GVW) expressed in pounds), and the axis of the ordinate shall be 
N/V (where (N) is the

[[Page 119]]

crankshaft speed expressed in revolutions per minute and (V) is the 
vehicle speed expressed in miles per hour). At the manufacturer's 
option, either the 1:1 transmission gear ratio or the lowest numerical 
gear ratio available in the transmission will be used to determine N/V. 
The gear selection must be the same for all N/V data points on the 
manufacturer's graph. For each transmission/axle ratio combination, only 
the lowest N/V value shall be used in the graphical display.
    (B) The product line is then defined by the equation, N/V = C(D/
W)-0.9 where the constant, C, is determined by the 
requirement that all the vehicle data points either fall on the line or 
lie to the upper right of the line as displayed on the graphs.
    (C) The exemption line is then defined by the equation, N/V = C(0.84 
D/W)-0.9 where the constant, C, is the same as that found in 
paragraph (g)(2)(i)(B) of this section.
    (D) The exempted range includes all values of N/V and D/W which 
simultaneously fall to the lower left of the exemption line as drawn on 
the graph.
    (ii) Its design parameters fall within the alternate exempted range 
for that manufacturer that year. The alternate exempted range is 
determined by substituting rated horsepower (hp) for displacement (D) in 
the exemption procedure described in paragraph (g)(2)(i) of this section 
and by using the product line N/V = C(hp/W)-0.9.
    (A) Rated horsepower shall be determined by using the Society of 
Automotive Engineers Test Procedure J 1349, or any subsequent version of 
that test procedure. Any of the horsepower determinants within that test 
procedure may be used, as long as it is used consistently throughout the 
manufacturer's product line in any model year.
    (B) No exemptions will be allowed under paragraph (g)(2)(ii) of this 
section to any manufacturer that has exempted vehicle configurations as 
set forth in paragraph (g)(2)(i) of this section.
    (iii) Its acceleration time (the time it takes a vehicle to 
accelerate from 0 to a speed not less than 40 miles per hour and not 
greater than 50 miles per hour) under high-altitude conditions is 
greater than the largest acceleration time under low-altitude conditions 
for that manufacturer for that year. The procedure to be followed in 
making this determination is:
    (A) The manufacturer shall list the vehicle configuration and 
acceleration time under low-altitude conditions of that vehicle 
configuration which has the highest acceleration time under low-altitude 
conditions of all the vehicle configurations it will offer for the model 
year in question. The manufacturer shall also submit a description of 
the methodology used to make this determination.
    (B) The manufacturer shall then list the vehicle configurations and 
acceleration times under high-altitude conditions of all those vehicles 
configurations which have higher acceleration times under high-altitude 
conditions than the highest acceleration time at low altitude identified 
in paragraph (g)(2)(iii)(A) of this section.
    (iv) In lieu of performing the test procedure of paragraph 
(g)(2)(iii) of this section, its acceleration time can be estimated 
based on the manufacturer's engineering evaluation, in accordance with 
good engineering practice, to meet the exemption criteria of paragraph 
(g)(2)(iii) of this section.
    (3) The sale of a vehicle for principal use at a designated high-
altitude location that has been exempted as set forth in paragraph 
(g)(2) of this section will be considered a violation of section 
203(a)(1) of the Clean Air Act.

Sec. 86.091-15  NOX and particulate averaging, trading, and banking for heavy-duty engines.

    (a)(1) Heavy-duty engines eligible for the NOX and 
particulate averaging, trading, and banking programs are described in 
the applicable emission standards sections in this subpart. 
Participation in these programs is voluntary.
    (2)(i) Engine families with FELs exceeding the applicable standard 
shall obtain emission credits in a mass amount sufficient to address the 
shortfall. Credits may be obtained from averaging, trading, or banking, 
within the averaging set restrictions described in this section.
    (ii) Engine families with FELs below the applicable standard will 
have emission credits available to average, trade, bank or a combination 
thereof. Credits may not be used to offset emissions that exceed an FEL. 
Credits may not be used to remedy an in-use nonconformity determined by 
a Selective Enforcement Audit or by recall testing. However, credits may 
be used to allow subsequent production of engines for the family in 
question if the manufacturer elects to recertify to a higher FEL.
    (iii) Engine families within a given averaging set may not both 
generate and use like emission credits in the same model year. This 
restriction is to be applied on a pollutant-specific basis.
    (b) Participation in the NOX and/or particulate 
averaging, trading, and banking programs shall be done as follows.
    (1) During certification, the manufacturer shall:
    (i) Declare its intent to include specific engine families in the 
averaging, trading and/or banking programs. Separate declarations are 
required for each program and for each pollutant (i.e., NOX 
and particulate).
    (ii) Declare an FEL for each engine family participating in one or 
more of these three programs.
    (A) The FEL must be to the same level of significant digits as the 
emission standard (one-tenth of a gram per brake horsepower for 
NOX emissions and one-hundredth of a gram per brake 
horsepower-hour for particulate emissions).
    (B) In no case may the FEL exceed the upper limit prescribed in the 
section concerning the applicable heavy-duty engine NOX and 
particulate emission standards.
    (iii) Calculate the projected emission credits ( + / - ) based on 
quarterly production projections for each participating family and for 
each pollutant (NOX and particulate), using the equation in 
paragraph (c) of this section and the applicable factors for the 
specific engine family.
    (iv)(A) Determine and state the source of the needed credits 
according to quarterly projected production for engine families 
requiring credits for certification.
    (B) State where the quarterly projected credits will be applied for 
engine families generating credits.
    (C) Credits may be obtained from or applied to only engine families 
within the same averaging set as described in paragraphs (d) and (e) of 
this section. Credits available for averaging, trading, or banking as 
defined in Sec. 86.090-2, may be applied to a given engine famil(y) 
(ies), or reserved as defined in Sec. 86.091-2.
    (2) Based on this information each manufacturer's certification 
application must demonstrate:
    (i) That at the end of model year production, each engine family has 
a net emissions credit balance of zero or more using the methodology in 
paragraph (c) of this section with any credits obtained from averaging, 
trading or banking.
    (ii) The source of the credits to be used to comply with the 
emission standard if the FEL exceeds the standard, or where credits will 
be applied if the FEL is less than the emission standard. In cases where 
credits are being obtained, each engine family involved must state 
specifically the source (manufacturer/engine family) of

[[Page 125]]

the credits being used. In cases where credits are being generated/
supplied, each engine family involved must state specifically the 
designated use (manufacturer/engine family or reserved) of the credits 
involved. All such reports shall include all credits involved in 
averaging, trading or banking.
    (3) During the model year manufacturers must:
    (i) Monitor projected versus actual production to be certain that 
compliance with the emission standards is achieved at the end of the 
model year.
    (ii) Provide the end of-model year reports required under 
Sec. 86.091-23.
    (iii) Maintain the quarterly records required under Sec. 86.091-
7(c)(8).
    (4) Projected credits based on information supplied in the 
certification application may be used to obtain a certificate of 
conformity. However, any such credits may be revoked based on review of 
end-of-model year reports, follow-up audits, and any other verification 
steps deemed appropriate by the Administrator.
    (5) Compliance under averaging, banking, and trading will be 
determined at the end of the model year. Engine families without an 
adequate amount of actual NOX and/or particulate emission 
credits will violate the conditions of the certificate of conformity. 
The certificates of conformity may be voided ab initio for those engine 
families.
    (6) If EPA or the manufacturer determines that a reporting error 
occurred on an end-of-year report previously submitted to EPA under this 
section, the manufacturer's credits and credit calculations will be 
recalculated. Erroneous positive credits will be void. Erroneous 
negative credit balances may be adjusted by EPA.
    (i) If EPA review of a manufacturer's end-of-year report indicates 
an inadvertent credit shortfall, the manufacturer will be permitted to 
purchase the necessary credits to bring the credit balance for that 
engine family to zero, at the ratio of 1.2 credits purchased for every 
credit needed to bring the balance to zero. If sufficient credits are 
not available to bring the credit balance for the engine family in 
question to zero, EPA may void the certificate for that engine family ab 
initio.
    (ii) If within 90 days of receipt of the manufacturer's end-of-year 
report, EPA review determines a reporting error in the manufacturer's 
favor (i.e., resulting in a positive credit balance) or if the 
manufacturer discovers such an error within 90 days of EPA receipt of 
the end-of-year report, the credits will be restored for use by the 
manufacturer.
    (c)(1) For each participating engine family, NOX and 
particulate emission credits (positive or negative) are to be calculated 
according to one of the following equations and rounded, in accordance 
with ASTM E29-67, to the nearest one-tenth of a Megagram (Mg). 
Consistent units are to be used throughout the equation.
    For determining credit need for all engine families and credit 
availability for engine families generating credits for averaging 
programs only:

Emission credits=(Std-FEL) x (CF) x (UL) x - 
          (Production) x (10-6)

    For determining credit availability for engine families generating 
credits for trading or banking programs:

Emission credits=(Std-FEL) x (CF) x (UL) x - 
          (Production) x (10-6) x (0.8)

Where:

Std=the current and applicable heavy-duty engine NOX or 
          particulate emission standard in grams per brake horsepower 
          hour or grams per Megajoule.
FEL=the NOX or particulate family emission limit for the 
          engine family in grams per brake horsepower-hour or grams per 
          Megajoule.
CF=a transient cycle conversion factor in BHP-hr/mi or MJ/mi, as given 
          in paragraph (c)(2) of this section.
UL=the useful life, or alternative life as described in paragraph (f) of 
          Sec. 86.090-21, for the given engine family in miles.
Production=the number of engines produced for U.S. sales within the 
          given engine family during the model year. Quarterly 
          production projections are used for initial certification. 
          Actual production is used for end-of-year compliance 
          determination.
0.8=a one-time discount applied to all credits to be banked or traded 
          within the model year generated. Banked credits traded in a 
          subsequent model year will not be subject to an additional 
          discount. Banked credits used in a subsequent model year's 
          averaging program will not have the discount restored.


[[Page 126]]


    (2) The transient cycle conversion factor is the total (integrated) 
cycle brake horsepower-hour or Megajoules, divided by the equivalent 
mileage of the applicable transient cycle. For Otto-cycle heavy-duty 
engines, the equivalent mileage is 6.3 miles. For diesel heavy-duty 
engines, the equivalent mileage is 6.5 miles. When more than one 
configuration is chosen by EPA to be tested in the certification of an 
engine family (as described in Sec. 86.085-24), the conversion factor 
used is to be based upon the configuration generating the highest 
conversion factor when determining credit need and the lowest conversion 
factor when determining credit availability for banking, trading or 
averaging.
    (d) Averaging sets for NOX emission credits: The 
averaging and trading of NOX emission credits will only be 
allowed between heavy-duty engine families in the same averaging set and 
in the same regional category. Engines produced for sale in California 
constitute a separate regional category than engines produced for sale 
in the other 49 states. Banking and trading are not applicable to 
engines sold in California. The averaging sets for the averaging and 
trading of NOX emission credits for heavy-duty engines are 
defined as follows:
    (1) For Otto-cycle heavy-duty engines:
    (i) Otto-cycle heavy-duty engines constitute an averaging set. 
Averaging and trading among all Otto-cycle heavy-duty engine families is 
allowed. There are no subclass restrictions.
    (ii) Gasoline-fueled heavy-duty vehicles certified under the 
provisions of Sec. 86.085-1(b) may not average or trade credits with 
gasoline-fueled heavy-duty Otto-cycle engines, but may average or trade 
credits with light-duty trucks.
    (2) For diesel cycle heavy-duty engines:
    (i) Each of the three primary intended service classes for heavy-
duty diesel engines, as defined in Sec. 86.090-2, constitute an 
averaging set. Averaging and trading among all diesel cycle engine 
families within the same primary service class is allowed.
    (ii) Urban buses are treated as members of the primary intended 
service class where they would otherwise fall.
    (e) Averaging sets for particulate emission credits. The averaging 
and trading of particulate emission credits will only be allowed between 
diesel cycle heavy-duty engine families in the same averaging set and in 
the same regional category. Engines produced for sale in California 
constitute a separate regional category than engines produced for sale 
in the other 49 states. Banking and trading are not applicable to 
engines sold in California. The averaging sets for the averaging and 
trading of particulate emission credits for diesel cycle heavy-duty 
engines are defined as follows:
    (1) Engines intended for use in urban buses constitute a separate 
averaging set from all other heavy-duty engines. Averaging and trading 
among all diesel cycle bus engine families is allowed.
    (2) For heavy-duty engines, exclusive of urban bus engines, each of 
the three primary intended service classes for heavy-duty diesel cycle 
engines, as defined in Sec. 86.090-2, constitute an averaging set. 
Averaging and trading between diesel cycle engine families within the 
same primary service class is allowed.
    (3) Otto-cycle engines may not participate in particulate averaging, 
trading, or banking.
    (f) Banking of NOX and particulate emission credits:
    (1) Credit deposits. (i) Under this phase of the banking program, 
emission credits may be banked from engine families produced during the 
three model years prior to the effective model year of the new HDE 
NOX or particulate emission standard. Credits may not be 
banked from engine families made during any other model years.
    (ii) Manufacturers may bank credits only after the end of the model 
year and after EPA has reviewed their end-of-year report. During the 
model year and before submittal of the end-of-year report, credits 
originally designated in the certification process for banking will be 
considered reserved and may be redesignated for trading or averaging.
    (2) Credit withdrawals. (i) After being generated, banked/reserved 
credits shall be available for use three model years prior to, through 
three model years immediately after the effective date of the new HDE 
NOX or particulate emission standard, as applicable.

[[Page 127]]

However, credits not used within the period specified above shall be 
forfeited.
    (ii) Manufacturers withdrawing banked emission credits shall 
indicate so during certification and in their credit reports, as 
described in Sec. 86.091-23.
    (3) Use of banked emission credits. The use of banked credits shall 
be within the averaging set and other restrictions described in 
paragraphs (d) and (e) of this section, and only for the following 
purposes:
    (i) Banked credits may be used in averaging, trading, or in any 
combination thereof, during the certification period. Credits declared 
for banking from the previous model year but unreviewed by EPA may also 
be used. However, they may be revoked at a later time following EPA 
review of the end-of-year report or any subsequent audit actions.
    (ii) Banked credits may not be used for NOX or 
particulate averaging and trading to offset emissions that exceed an 
FEL. Banked credits may not be used to remedy an in-use nonconformity 
determined by a Selective Enforcement Audit or by recall testing. 
However, banked credits may be used for subsequent production of the 
engine family if the manufacturer elects to recertify to a higher FEL.
    (g)(1) The following paragraphs assume NOX and 
particulate nonconformance penalties (NCPs) will be available for the 
1991 and later model year HDEs.
    (2) Engine families paying an NCP for noncompliance of any emission 
standard may not:
    (i) Participate in the averaging program,
    (ii) Generate emission credits for any pollutant under banking and 
trading, and
    (iii) Use emission credits for any pollutant from banking and 
trading.
    (3) If a manufacturer has any engine family to which application of 
NCPs and averaging, banking, and trading credits is desired, that family 
must be separated into two distinct families. One family, whose FEL 
equals the standard, must use NCPs only, while the other, whose FEL does 
not equal the standard, must use emission credits only.
    (4) If a manufacturer has any engine family in a given averaging set 
which is using NOX and/or particulate NCPs, none of that 
manufacturer's engine families in that averaging set may generate 
credits for banking and trading.
    (h) In the event of a negative credit balance in a trading 
situation, both the buyer and the seller would be liable.
    (i) Certification fuel used for credit generation must be of a type 
that is both available in use and expected to be used by the engine 
purchaser. Therefore, upon request by the Administrator, the engine 
manufacturer must provide information acceptable to the Administrator 
that the designated fuel is readily available commercially and would be 
used in customer service.

    (B) The manufacturer may provide, in the application for 
certification, information relating to why certain parameters are not 
expected to be adjusted in actual use and to why the physical limits or 
stops used to establish the physically adjustable range of each 
parameter, or any other means used to inhibit adjustment, are effective 
in preventing adjustment of parameters on in-use vehicles to settings 
outside the manufacturer's intended physically adjustable ranges. This 
may include results of any tests to determine the difficulty of gaining 
access to an adjustment or exceeding a limit as intended or recommended 
by the manufacturer.
    (C) The Administrator may require to be provided detailed drawings 
and descriptions of the various emission related components, and/or 
hardware samples of such components, for the purpose of making his 
determination of which vehicle or engine parameter will be subject to 
adjustment for new certification and Selective Enforcement Audit testing 
and of the physically adjustable range for each such vehicle or engine 
parameter.
    (2) Projected U.S. sales data sufficient to enable the Administrator 
to select a test fleet representative of the vehicles (or engines) for

methanol-fueled engines, the Administrator does not assume that each 
evaporative emission family-evaporative emission control system 
combination will deteriorate in a unique manner during the useful life 
of the vehicle. The manufacturer shall therefore identify those 
evaporative emission deterioration factors which shall be applied to the 
various evaporative emission family-evaporative emission control system 
combinations which are expected to exhibit similar deterioration 
characteristics during the useful life of the vehicle.
    (5)(i)(A) A description of the test procedures to be used to

required, and the NCPs in use on a similar NCP family. Manufacturers 
shall also submit how and where credit surpluses were dispersed (or are 
to be banked) and how and through what means credit deficits were met. 
Copies of contracts related to credit trading must also be included or 
supplied by the broker if applicable. The report shall also include a 
calculation of credit balances to show that net mass emissions balances 
are within those allowed by the emission standards (equal to or greater 
than a zero credit balance). The credit discount factor described in 
86.091-15 must be included as required.
    (iii) The 49-state production counts for end-of-year reports shall 
be based on the location of the first point of retail sale (e.g., 
customer, dealer, secondary manufacturer) by the manufacturer.
    (iv) Errors discovered by EPA or the manufacturer in the end-of-year 
report, including errors in credit calculation, may be corrected up to 
90 days subsequent to submission of the end-of-year report. Errors 
discovered by EPA after 90 days shall be corrected if credits are 
reduced. Errors in the manufacturer's favor will not be corrected if 
discovered after the 90 day correction period allowed.
    (i) Failure by a manufacturer participating in the averaging, 
trading, or

[[Page 133]]

banking programs to submit any quarterly or end-of-year report (as 
applicable) in the specified time for all vehicles and engines that are 
part of an averaging set is a violation of section 203(a)(1) of the 
Clean Air Act for each such vehicle and engine.
    (j) Failure by a manufacturer generating credits for deposit only in 
either the HDE NOX or particulate banking programs to submit 
their end-of-year reports in the applicable specified time period (i.e., 
90 days after the end of the model year) shall result in the credits not 
being available for use until such reports are received and reviewed by 
EPA. Use of projected credits pending EPA review will not be permitted 
in these circumstances.
    (k) Engine families certified using NCPs are not required to meet 
the requirements outlined above.

Sec. 86.091-28  Compliance with emission standards.

    (a)(1) Paragraph (a) of this section applies to light-duty vehicles.
    (2) The applicable exhaust and fuel evaporative emissions standards 
(and family particulate emission limits, as appropriate) of this subpart 
apply to the emissions of vehicles for their useful life.
    (3) Since it is expected that emission control efficiency will 
change with mileage accumulation on the vehicle, the emission level of a 
vehicle which has accumulated 50,000 miles will be used as the basis for 
determining compliance with the standards (or family particulate 
emission limit, as appropriate).
    (4) The procedure for determining compliance of a new motor vehicle 
with exhaust emission standards (or family particulate emission limit, 
as appropriate) is as follows, except where specified by paragraph 
(a)(7) of this section for the Alternative Durability Program:
    (i) Separate emission deterioration factors shall be determined from 
the exhaust emission results of the durability-data vehicle(s) for each 
engine-system combination. A separate factor shall be established, as 
required for compliance with applicable emission standards for exhaust 
HC, exhaust THCE, exhaust NMHC, exhaust CO, exhaust NOX and 
exhaust particulate for each engine-system combination. A separate 
evaporative emission deterioration factor, as required for compliance 
with applicable emission standards, shall be determined for each 
evaporative emission family-evaporative emission control system 
combination from the testing conducted by the manufacturer.
    (A) The applicable results to be used unless excluded by paragraph 
(a)(4)(i)(A)(4) of this section in determining the exhaust emission 
deterioration factors for each engine-system combination shall be:
    (1) All valid exhaust emission data from the tests required under 
Sec. 86.084-26(a)(4) except the zero-mile tests. This shall include the 
official test results, as determined in Sec. 86.091-29 for all tests 
conducted on all durability-data vehicles of the combination selected 
under Sec. 86.085-24(c) (including all vehicles elected to be operated 
by the manufacturer under Sec. 86.085-24(c)(1)(ii)).
    (2) All exhaust emission data from the tests conducted before and 
after the scheduled maintenance provided in Sec. 86.088-25.
    (3) All exhaust emission data from tests required by maintenance 
approved under Sec. 86.088-25, in those cases where the Administrator 
conditioned his approval for the performance of such maintenance on the 
inclusion of such data in the deterioration factor calculation.
    (4) The manufacturer has the option of applying an outlier test 
point procedure to completed durability data within its certification 
testing program for a given model year. The outlier procedure will be 
specified by the Administrator. For any pollutant, durability-data test 
points that are identified as outliers shall not be included in the 
determination of deterioration factors if the manufacturer has elected 
this option. The manufacturer shall specify to the Administrator before 
the certification of the first engine

[[Page 134]]

family for that model year, if it intends to use the outlier procedure. 
The manufacturer may not change procedures after the first engine family 
of the model year is certified. Where the manufacturer chooses to apply 
both the outlier procedure and averaging (as allowed under Sec. 86.084-
26(a)(6)(i)) to the same data set, the outlier procedure shall be 
completed prior to applying the averaging procedure.
    (B) All applicable exhaust emission results shall be plotted as a 
function of the mileage on the system, rounded to the nearest mile, and 
the best fit straight lines, fitted by the method of least squares, 
shall be drawn through all these data points. The data will be 
acceptable for use in the calculation of the deterioration factor only 
if the interpolated 4,000-mile and 50,000-mile points on this line are 
within the low-altitude standards provided in Sec. 86.087-8. Exceptions 
to this where data are still acceptable are when a best fit straight 
line crosses an applicable standard but no data points exceeded the 
standard, or the best fit straight line crosses an applicable standard 
with a negative slope (the 4,000-mile interpolated point is higher than 
the 50,000-mile interpolated point) but the 50,000-mile actual data 
point is below the standard. An multiplicative exhaust emission 
deterioration factor shall be calculated for each engine-system 
combination as follows:

Factor=Exhaust emissions interpolated to 50,000 miles divided by exhaust 
          emissions interpolated to 4,000 miles.


These interpolated values shall be carried out to a minimum of four 
places to the right of the decimal point before dividing one by the 
other to determine the deterioration factor. The results shall be 
rounded to three places to the right of the decimal point in accordance 
with ASTM E 29-67.
    (C)(1) An evaporative emissions deterioration factor shall be 
determined from the testing conducted as described in Sec. 86.090-
21(b)(4)(i), for each evaporative emission family- evaporative emission 
control system combination to indicate the evaporative emission level at 
50,000 miles relative to the evaporative emission level at 4,000 miles 
as follows:

Factor = Evaporative emission level at 50,000 miles minus the 
          evaporative emission level at 4,000 miles.

    (2) The factor in paragraph (a)(4)(i)(C)(1) of this section shall be 
established to a minimum of two places to the right of the decimal.
    (ii)(A) The official exhaust emission test results for each 
emission-data vehicle at the selected test point shall be multiplied by 
the appropriate deterioration factor: Provided, that if a deterioration 
factor as computed in paragraph (a)(4)(i)(B) of this section is less 
than one, that deterioration factor shall be one for the purposes of 
this paragraph.
    (B) The official evaporative emission test results for each 
evaporative emission-data vehicle at the selected test point shall be 
adjusted by addition of the appropriate deterioration factor: Provided, 
that if a deterioration factor as computed in paragraph (a)(4)(i)(C) of 
this section is less than zero, that deterioration factor shall be zero 
for the purposes of this paragraph.
    (iii) The emissions to compare with the standard (or the family 
particulate emission limit, as appropriate) shall be the adjusted 
emissions of paragraphs (a)(4)(ii) (A) and (B) of this section for each 
emission-data vehicle. Before any emission value is compared with the 
standard (or the family particulate emission limit, as appropriate), it 
shall be rounded, in accordance with ASTM E 29-67, to two significant 
figures. The rounded emission values may not exceed the standard (or the 
family particulate emission limit, as appropriate).
    (iv) Every test vehicle of an engine family must comply with the 
exhaust emission standards (or the family particulate emission limit, as 
appropriate), as determined in paragraph (a)(4)(iii) of this section, 
before any vehicle in that family may be certified.
    (v) Every test vehicle of an evaporative emission family must comply 
with the evaporative emission standard, as determined in paragraph 
(a)(4)(iii) of this section, before any vehicle in that family may be 
certified.
    (5) If a manufacturer chooses to change the level of any family 
particulate emission limit(s) in the particulate averaging program, 
compliance

[[Page 135]]

with the new limit(s) must be based upon existing certification data.
    (6) If a manufacturer chooses to participate in the diesel 
particulate averaging program, the production-weighted average of the 
family particulate emission limits of all affected engine families must 
comply with the particulate standards in Sec. 86.087-8(a)(1)(iv), or the 
composite particulate standard defined in Sec. 86.085-2, as appropriate, 
at the end of the production year.
    (7) The procedure to determine the compliance of new motor vehicles 
in the Alternative Durability Program (described in Sec. 86.085-13) is 
the same as described in paragraphs (a)(4)(iii) through (a)(4)(v) of 
this section. For the engine families that are included in the 
Alternative Durability Program, the exhaust emission deterioration 
factors used to determine compliance shall be those that the 
Administrator has approved under Sec. 86.085-13(c). The evaporative 
emission deterioration factor for each evaporative emission family shall 
be determined and applied according to paragraph (a)(4) of this section. 
The procedures to determine the minimum exhaust emissions deterioration 
factors required under Sec. 86.085-13(d) are as follows:
    (i) Separate deterioration factors shall be determined from the 
exhaust emission results of the durability-data vehicles for each engine 
family group. A separate factor as necessary to establish compliance 
with applicable emission standards shall be established for exhaust HC, 
exhaust THCE, exhaust NMHC, exhaust CO and exhaust NOX for 
each engine family group. The evaporative emission deterioration factor 
for each evaporative family will be determined and applied in accordance 
with paragraph (a)(4) of this section.
    (ii) The deterioration factors for each engine family group shall be 
determined by the Administrator using historical durability data from as 
many as three previous model years. These data will consist of 
deterioration factors generated by durability-data vehicles representing 
certified engine families and of deterioration factors from vehicles 
selected under Sec. 86.085-24(h). The Administrator shall determine how 
these data will be combined for each engine family group.
    (A) The test result to be used in the calculation of each 
deterioration factor to be combined for each engine family group shall 
be those test results specified in paragraph (a)(4)(i)(A) of this 
section.
    (B) For each durability-data vehicles selected under Sec. 86.085-
24(h), all applicable exhaust emissions results shall be plotted as a 
function of the mileage on the system rounded to the nearest mile, and 
the best fit straight lines, fitted by method of least squares, shall be 
drawn through all these data points. The exhaust deterioration factor 
for each durability-data vehicles shall be calculated as specified in 
paragraph (a)(4)(i)(B) of this section.
    (C) Line-crossing. For the purposes of paragraph (a)(5) of this 
section, line crossing occurs when either of the interpolated 4,000- and 
50,000-mile points of the best fit straight line exceeds the applicable 
emission standard and at least one applicable data point exceeds the 
standard.
    (1) The Administrator will not accept for certification line-
crossing data from preproduction durability-data vehicles selected under 
Sec. 86.085-24(c), Sec. 86.085-24(h)(2), or (h)(3).
    (2) The Administrator will not accept for certification line-
crossing data from production durability-data vehicles selected under 
Sec. 86.085-24(h)(1) unless the 4,000-mile test result multiplied by the 
engine family group deterioration factor does not exceed the applicable 
emission standards. The deterioration factors used for this purpose 
shall be those that were used in the certification of the production 
vehicle. Manufacturers may calculate this product immediately after the 
4,000-mile test of the vehicle. If the product exceeds the applicable 
standards, the manufacturer may, with the approval of the Administrator, 
discontinue the vehicle and substitute a new vehicle. The manufacturer 
may continue the original vehicle, but the data will not be acceptable 
if line crossing occurs.
    (b)(1) Paragraph (b) of this section applies to light-duty trucks.
    (2) The exhaust and evaporative emission standards (and family 
emission limits, as appropriate) of Sec. 86.091-9 apply to the emissions 
of vehicles for their useful life.

[[Page 136]]

    (3) Since emission control efficiency generally decreases with the 
accumulation of mileage on the vehicle, deterioration factors will be 
used in combination with emission-data vehicle test results as the basis 
for determining compliance with the standards (or family emission 
limits, as appropriate).
    (4)(i) Paragraph (b)(4) of this section describes the procedure for 
determining compliance of a new vehicle with exhaust emission standards 
(or family emission limits, as appropriate), based on deterioration 
factors supplied by the manufacturers, except where specified by 
paragraph (b)(5) of this section for the Alternative Durability Program.
    (ii) Separate exhaust emission deterioration factors, determined 
from tests of vehicles, engines, subsystems or components conducted by 
the manufacturer, shall be supplied for each engine-system combination. 
Separate factors shall be established as required for compliance with 
applicable emission standards for transient HC, THCE, NMHC, CO, and 
NOX, idle CO and exhaust particulate.
    (iii) For transient HC, THCE, NMHC and CO, and NOX, idle 
CO and/or exhaust particulate as appropriate, the official exhaust 
emission results for each emission-data vehicle at the selected test 
point shall be adjusted by multiplication by the appropriate 
deterioration factor. However, if the deterioration factor supplied by 
the manufacturer is less than one, it shall be one for the purposes of 
this paragraph.
    (iv) The emission values to compare with the standards (or family 
emission limits, as appropriate) shall be the adjusted emission values 
of paragraph (b)(4)(iii) of this section rounded to two significant 
figures in accordance with ASTM E 29-67 for each emission-data engine.
    (5)(i) Paragraph (b)(5)(i) of this section applies only to 
manufacturers electing to participate in the particulate averaging 
program.
    (A) If a manufacturer chooses to change the level of any family 
particulate emission limit(s), compliance with the new limit(s) must be 
based upon existing certification data.
    (B) The production-weighted average of the family particulate 
emission limits of all applicable engine families, rounded to two 
significant figures in accordance with ASTM E 29-67, must comply with 
the particulate standards in Sec. 86.088-9 (a)(1)(iv) or (d)(1)(iv), or 
the composite particulate standard as defined in Sec. 86.085-2, as 
appropriate, at the end of the product year.
    (ii) Paragraph (b)(5)(ii) of this section applies only to 
manufacturers electing to participate in the NOX averaging 
program.
    (A) If a manufacturer chooses to change the level of any family 
NOX emission limit(s), compliance with the new limit(s) must 
be based upon existing certification data.
    (B) The production-weighted average of the family NOX 
emission limits of all applicable engine families, rounded to two 
significant figures in accordance with ASTM E 29-67, must comply with 
the NOX emission standards of Sec. 86.088-9(a)(1)(iii) (A) or 
(B), or of Sec. 86.088-9(d)(1)(iii) (A) or (B), or the composite 
NOX standard as defined in Sec. 86.088-2, at the end of the 
product year.
    (6) The procedure to determine the compliance of new motor vehicles 
in the Alternative Durability Program (described in Sec. 86.085-13) is 
the same as described in paragraph (b)(4)(iv), (b)(7)(iv) and (b)(8) of 
this section. For the engine families that are included in the 
Alternative Durability Program, the exhause emission deterioration 
factors used to determine compliance shall be those that the 
Administrator has approved under Sec. 86.085-13(c). The evaporative 
emission deterioration factor for each evaporative emission family shall 
be determined and applied according to paragraph (b)(7) of this section. 
The procedures to determine the minimum exhaust emissions deterioration 
factors required under Sec. 86.085-13(d) are as follows:
    (i) Separate deterioration factors shall be determined from the 
exhaust emission results of the durability-data vehicles for each engine 
family group. A separate factor shall be established for exhaust HC, 
exhaust THCE or exhaust NMHC as appropriate, and exhaust CO and exhaust 
NOX for each engine family group. The evaporative emission 
deterioration factor for each evaporative family will be determined

[[Page 137]]

and applied in accordance with paragraph (b)(6) of this section.
    (ii) The deterioration factors for each engine family group shall be 
determined by the Administrator using historical durability data from as 
many as three previous model years. These data will consist of 
deterioration factors generated by durability-data vehicles representing 
certified engine families and of deterioration factors from vehicles 
selected under Sec. 86.085-24(h). The Administrator shall determine how 
these data will be combined for each engine family group.
    (A) The test results to be used in the calculations of each 
deterioration factor to be combined for each engine family group shall 
be those test results specified in paragraph (a)(4)(i)(A) of this 
section.
    (B) For each durability-data vehicle selected under Sec. 86.085-
24(h), all applicable exhaust emission results shall be plotted as a 
function of the mileage on the system rounded to the nearest mile, and 
the best fit straight lines, fitted by the method of least squares, 
shall be drawn through all these data points. The exhaust deterioration 
factor for each durability-data vehicle shall be calculated as specified 
in paragraph (a)(4)(i)(B) of this section.
    (C) Line crossing. For the purposes of paragraph (b)(5) of this 
section, line crossing occurs when either of the interpolated 4,000- and 
120,000-mile points of the best fit straight line exceeds the applicable 
emission standard and at least one applicable data point exceeds the 
standard.
    (1) The Administrator will not accept for certification line-
crossing data from preproduction durability-data vehicles selected under 
Sec. 86.085-24(c)(1), or Sec. 86.085-24 (h)(2) or (h)(3).
    (2) The Administrator will not accept for certification line-
crossing data from production durability-data vehicles selected under 
Sec. 86.085-24(h)(1) unless the 4,000-mile test result multiplied by the 
engine family group deterioration factor does not exceed the applicable 
emission standard. The deterioration factors used for this purpose shall 
be those that were used in the certification of the production vehicle. 
Manufacturers may calculate this product immediately after the 4,000-
mile test of the vehicle. If the product exceeds the applicable 
standard, the manufacturer may, with the approval of the Administrator, 
discontinue the vehicle and substitute a new vehicle. The manufacturer 
may continue the original vehicle, but the data will not be acceptable 
if line crossing occurs.
    (7)(i) Paragraph (b)(7) of this section describes the procedure for 
determining compliance of a new vehicle with fuel evaporative emission 
standards. The procedure described here shall be used for all vehicles 
in all model years.
    (ii) The manufacturer shall determine, based on testing described in 
Sec. 86.091-21(b)(4)(i), and supply an evaporative emission 
deterioration factor for each evaporative emission family-evaporative 
emission control system combination. The factor shall be calculated by 
subtracting the emission level at the selected test point from the 
emission level at the useful life point.
    (iii) The official evaporative emission test results for each 
evaporative emission-data vehicle at the selected test point shall be 
adjusted by the addition of the appropriate deterioration factor. 
However, if the deterioration factor supplied by the manufacturer is 
less than zero, it shall be zero for the purposes of this paragraph.
    (iv) The emission value to compare with the standards shall be the 
adjusted emission value of paragraph (b)(7)(iii) of this section rounded 
to two significant figures in accordance with ASTM E 29-67 for each 
evaporative emission-data vehicle.
    (8) Every test vehicle of an engine family must comply with all 
applicable standards (and family emission limits, as appropriate), as 
determined in paragraphs (b)(4)(iv) and (b)(7)(iv) of this section, 
before any vehicle in that family will be certified.
    (c)(1) Paragraph (c) of this section applies to heavy-duty engines.
    (2) The exhaust emission standards (or family emission limits, as 
appropriate) for Otto-cycle engines in Sec. 86.090-10 or for diesel 
engines in Sec. 86.091-11 apply to the emissions of engines for their 
useful life.

[[Page 138]]

    (3) Since emission control efficiency generally decreases with the 
accumulation of service on the engine, deterioration factors will be 
used in combination with emission-data engine test results as the basis 
for determining compliance with the standards.
    (4)(i) Paragraph (c)(4) of this section describes the procedure for 
determining compliance of an engine with emission standards (or family 
emission limits, as appropriate), based on deterioration factors 
supplied by the manufacturer.
    (ii) Separate exhaust emission deterioration factors, determined 
from tests of engines, subsystems or components conducted by the 
manufacturer, shall be supplied for each engine-system combination. For 
Otto-cycle engines, separate factors shall be established for transient 
HC, THCE or NMHC as appropriate, CO and NOX; and idle CO, for 
those engines utilizing aftertreatment technology (e.g., catalytic 
converters). For diesel engines, separate factors shall be established 
for transient HC, THCE or NMHC as appropriate, CO, NOX and 
exhaust particulate. For diesel smoke testing, separate factors shall 
also be established for the acceleration mode (designated as ``A''), the 
lugging mode (designated as ``B''), and peak opacity (designated as 
``C'').
    (iii)(A) Paragraph (c)(4)(iii)(A) of this section applies to Otto-
cycle heavy-duty engines.
    (1) Otto-cycle heavy-duty engines not utilizing aftertreatment 
technology (e.g., catalytic converters). For transient HC, THCE or NMHC 
as appropriate, CO and NOX, the official exhaust emission 
results for each emission-data engine at the selected test point shall 
be adjusted by the addition of the appropriate deterioration factor. 
However, if the deterioration factor supplied by the manufacturer is 
less than zero, it shall be zero for the purposes of this paragraph.
    (2) Otto-cycle heavy-duty engines utilizing aftertreatment 
technology (e.g., catalytic converters). For transient HC, THCE or NMHC 
as appropriate, CO and NOX, and for idle CO, the official 
exhaust emission results for each emission-data engine at the selected 
test point shall be adjusted by multiplication by the appropriate 
deterioration factor. However, if the deterioration factor supplied by 
the manufacturer is less than one, it shall be one for the purposes of 
this paragraph.
    (B) Paragraph (c)(4)(iii)(B) of this section applies to diesel 
heavy-duty engines.
    (1) Diesel heavy-duty engines not utilizing aftertreatment 
technology (e.g., particulate traps). For transient HC, THCE or NMHC as 
appropriate, CO, NOX and exhaust particulate, the official 
exhaust emission results for each emission-data engine at the selected

deterioration factor. However, if the deterioration factor supplied by 
the manufacturer is less than zero, it shall be zero for the purposes of 
this paragraph.
    (2) Diesel heavy-duty engines utilizing aftertreatment technology 
(e.g., particulate traps). For transient HC, THCE or NMHC as 
appropriate, CO, NOX and exhaust particulate, the official 
exhaust emission results for each emission-data engine at the selected

lugging smoke (``B''), and peak smoke (``C''), the official exhaust 
emission results for each emission-data engine at the selected test 
point shall be adjusted by the addition of the appropriate deterioration 
factor. However, if the deterioration factor supplied by the 
manufacturer is less than zero, it shall be zero for the purposes of 
this paragraph.
    (iv) The emission values to compare with the standards (or family 
emission limits, as appropriate) shall be the adjusted emission values 
of paragraph (c)(4)(iii) of this section, rounded to the same number of 
significant figures as contained in the applicable standard in 
accordance with ASTM E 29-67, for each emission-data engine.
    (5)-(6) [Reserved]
    (7) Every test engine of an engine family must comply with all 
applicable standards (or family emission limits, as appropriate), as 
determined in paragraph (c)(4)(iv) of this section, before

[[Page 139]]

any engine in that family will be certified.
    (d)(1) Paragraph (d) of this section applies to heavy-duty vehicles 
required to comply with evaporative emission standards.
    (2) The applicable evaporative emission standard in Sec. 86.091-10 
or Sec. 86.091-11 applies to the emissions of vehicles for their useful 
life.
    (3)(i) For vehicles with a GVWR of up to 26,000 pounds, because it 
is expected that emission control efficiency will change during the 
useful life of the vehicle, an evaporative emission deterioration factor 
shall be determined from the testing described in Sec. 86.088-23(b)(3) 
for each evaporative emission family-evaporative emission control system 
combination to indicate the evaporative emission control system 
deterioration during the useful life of the vehicle (minimum 50,000 
miles). The factor shall be established to a minimum of two places to 
the right of the decimal.
    (ii) For vehicles with a GVWR of greater than 26,000 pounds, because 
it is expected that emission control efficiency will change during the 
useful life of the vehicle, each manufacturer's statement as required in 
Sec. 86.088-23(b)(4)(ii) shall include, in accordance with good 
engineering practice, consideration of control system deterioration.
    (4) The evaporative emission test results, if any, shall be adjusted 
by the addition of the appropriate deterioration factor: Provided, That 
if the deterioration factor as computed in paragraph (d)(3) of this 
section is less than zero, that deterioration factor shall be zero for 
the purposes of this paragraph.
    (5) The emission level to compare with the standard shall be the 
adjusted emission level of paragraph (d)(4) of this section. Before any 
emission value is compared with the standard, it shall be rounded, in 
accordance with ASTM E 29-67, to two significant figures. The rounded 
emission values may not exceed the standard.
    (6) Every test vehicle of an evaporative emission family must comply 
with the evaporative emission standard, as determined in paragraph 
(d)(5) of this section, before any vehicle in that family may be 
certified.
    (e) Unless a manufacturer develops specific cold temperature 
deterioration factors, 68-86  deg.F deterioration factors shall be used 
to determine compliance with cold temperature emission standards.

Sec. 86.091-29  Testing by the Administrator.

    (a)(1) Paragraph (a) of this section applies to light-duty vehicles 
and light-duty trucks.
    (2) The Administrator may require that any one or more of the test 
vehicles be submitted to him, at such place or places as he may 
designate, for the purposes of conducting emissions tests. The 
Administrator may specify that he will conduct such testing at the 
manufacturer's facility, in which case instrumentation and equipment 
specified by the Administrator shall be made available by the 
manufacturer for test operations. Any testing conducted at a 
manufacturer's facility pursuant to this paragraph shall be scheduled by 
the manufacturer as promptly as possible.
    (3)(i) Whenever the Administrator conducts a test segment on a test 
vehicle, the results of that test segment, unless subsequently 
invalidated by the Administrator, shall comprise the official data for 
that test segment for the vehicle at the prescribed test point and the 
manufacturer's data for that test segment for that prescribed test point 
shall not be used in determining compliance with emission standards (or 
family emission limits, as appropriate). The Administrator may stop a 
test after any evaporative test segment and use as official data any 
valid results obtained up to that point in the test, as described in 
subpart B of this part.
    (ii) Whenever the Administrator does not conduct a test on a test 
vehicle at a test point, the manufacturer's test data will be accepted 
as the official data for that point: Provided, That if the Administrator 
makes a determination based on testing under paragraph

[[Page 140]]

(a)(2) of this section, that there is a lack of correlation between the 
manufacturer's test equipment and the test equipment used by the 
Administrator, no manufacturer's test data will be accepted for purposes 
of certification until the reasons for the lack of correlation are 
determined and the validity of the data is established by the 
manufacturer, And further provided, That if the Administrator has 
reasonable basis to believe that any test data submitted by the 
manufacturer is not accurate or has been obtained in violation of any 
provisions of this part, the Administrator may refuse to accept that 
data as the official data pending retesting or submission or further 
information. If the manufacturer conducts more than one test on a 
vehicle, as authorized under Sec. 86.084-26 (a)(3)(i)(A) or 
(b)(4)(i)(A), the data from the last test in that series of tests on 
that vehicle, will constitute the official data.
    (iii)(A)(1) The Administrator may adjust or cause to be adjusted any 
adjustable parameter of an emission-data vehicle or engine which the 
Administrator has determined to be subject to adjustment for 
certification and Selective Enforcement Audit testing in accordance with 
Sec. 86.085-22(e)(1), to any setting within the physically adjustable 
range of that parameter, as determined by the Administrator in 
accordance with Sec. 86.085-22(e)(3)(i), prior to the performance of any 
tests to determine whether such vehicle or engine conforms to applicable 
emission standards, including tests performed by the manufacturer under 
Sec. 86.091-23(c)(1). However, if the idle speed parameter is one which 
the Administrator has determined to be subject to adjustment, the 
Administrator shall not adjust it to a setting which causes a higher 
engine idle speed than would have been possible within the physically 
adjustable range of the idle speed parameter on the engine before it 
accumulated any dynamometer service, all other parameters being 
identically adjusted for the purpose of the comparison. The 
Administrator, in making or specifying such adjustments, will consider 
the effect of the deviation from the manufacturer's recommended setting 
on emissions performance characteristics as well as the likelihood that 
similar settings will occur on in-use light-duty vehicles or light-duty 
trucks. In determining likelihood, the Administrator will consider 
factors such as, but not limited to, the effect of the adjustment on 
vehicle performance characteristics and surveillance information from 
similar in-use vehicles.
    (2) For those vehicles or engine parameters which the Administrator 
has not determined to be subject to adjustment during certification and 
Selective Enforcement Audit testing in accordance with Sec. 86.085-
22(e)(1), the emission-data vehicle presented to the Administrator for 
testing shall be calibrated within the production tolerances applicable 
to the manufacturer's specifications to be shown on the vehicle label 
(see Sec. 86.091-35 (a)(1)(iii)(D) or (a)(2)(iii)(D)) as specified in 
the application for certification. If the Administrator determines that 
a vehicle is not within such tolerances, the vehicle will be adjusted, 
at the facility designated by the Administrator, prior to the test and 
an engineering report shall be submitted to the Administrator describing 
the corrective action taken. Based on the engineering report, the 
Administrator will determine if the vehicle will be used as an emission-
data vehicle.
    (B) If the Administrator determines that the test data developed on 
an emission-data vehicle under paragraph (a)(3)(i) of this section would 
cause that vehicle to fail due to excessive 4,000-mile emissions or by 
application of the appropriate deterioration factor, then the following 
procedure shall be observed:
    (1) The manufacturer may request a retest. Before the retest, those 
vehicle or engine parameters which the Administrator has not determined 
to be subject to adjustment for certification and Selective Enforcement 
Audit testing in accordance with Sec. 86.085-22(e)(1) may be readjusted 
to manufacturer's specification, if these adjustments were made 
incorrectly prior to the first test. The Administrator may adjust or 
cause to be adjusted any parameter which the Administrator has 
determined to be subject to adjustment to any setting within the 
physically adjustable range of that parameter, as determined by the 
Administrator in accordance with

[[Page 141]]

Sec. 86.085-22(e)(3)(i). Other maintenance or repairs may be performed 
in accordance with Sec. 86.088-25. All work on the vehicle shall be done 
at such location and under such conditions as the Administrator may 
prescribe.
    (2) The vehicle will be retested by the Administrator and the 
results of this test shall comprise the official data for the emission-
data vehicle.
    (iv) If sufficient durability data are not available at the time of 
any emission test conducted under paragraph (a)(2) of this section to 
enable the Administrator to determine whether an emission-data vehicle 
would fail, the manufacturer may request a retest in accordance with the 
provisions of paragraphs (a)(3)(iii) (A) and (B) of this section. If the 
manufacturer does not promptly make such request, he shall be deemed to 
have waived the right to a retest. A request for retest must be made 
before the manufacturer removes the vehicle from the test premises.
    (b)(1) Paragraph (b) of this section applies to heavy-duty engines.
    (2) The Administrator may require that any one or more of the test 
engines be submitted to him, at such place or places as he may 
designate, for the purpose of conducting emissions tests. The 
Administrator may specify that he will conduct such testing at the 
manufacturer's facility, in which case instrumentation and equipment 
specified by the Administrator shall be made available by the 
manufacturer for test operations. Any testing conducted at a 
manufacturer's facility pursuant to this paragraph shall be scheduled by 
the manufacturer as promptly as possible.
    (3)(i) Whenever the Administrator conducts a test on a test engine 
the results of that test, unless subsequently invalidated by the 
Administrator, shall comprise the official data for the engine at that 
prescribed test point and the manufacturer's data for that prescribed 
test point shall not be used in determining compliance with emission 
standards (or family emission limits, as appropriate).
    (ii) Whenever the Administrator does not conduct a test on a test 
engine at a test point, the manufacturer's test data will be accepted as 
the official data for that test point: Provided, That if the 
Administrator makes a determination based on testing under paragraph 
(b)(2) of this section, that there is a lack of correlation between the 
manufacturer's test equipment and the test equipment used by the 
Administrator, no manufacturer's test data will be accepted for purposes 
of certification until the reasons for the lack of correlation are 
determined and the validity of the data is established by the 
manufacturer, And further provided, That if the Administrator has 
reasonable basis to believe that any test data submitted by the 
manufacturer is not accurate or has been obtained in violation of any 
provision of this part, the Administrator may refuse to accept that data 
as the official data pending retesting or submission of further 
information.
    (iii)(A)(1) The Administrator may adjust or cause to be adjusted any 
adjustable parameter of an emission-data engine which the Administrator 
has determined to be subject to adjustment for certification testing in 
accordance with Sec. 86.085-22(e)(1), to any setting within the 
physically adjustable range of that parameter, as determined by the 
Administrator in accordance with Sec. 86.085-22(e)(3)(i), prior to the 
performance of any tests to determine whether such engine conforms to 
applicable emission standards, including tests performed by the 
manufacturer under Sec. 86.088-23(c)(2). The Administrator, in making or 
specifying such adjustments, may consider the effect of the deviation 
from the manufacturer's recommended setting on emissions performance 
characteristics as well as the likelihood that similar settings will 
occur on in-use heavy-duty engines. In determining likelihood, the 
Administrator may consider factors such as, but not limited to, the 
effect of the adjustment on engine performance characteristics and 
surveillance information from similar in-use engines.
    (2) For those engine parameters which the Administrator has not 
determined to be subject to adjustment for certification testing in 
accordance with Sec. 86.085-22(e)(1), the emission-data engine presented 
to the Administrator for testing shall be calibrated within the 
production tolerances applicable to the manufacturer's specifications to 
be

[[Page 142]]

shown on the engine label (see Sec. 86.091-35(a)(3)(iii)) as specified 
in the application for certification. If the Administrator determines 
that an engine is not within such tolerances, the engine shall be 
adjusted at the facility designated by the Administrator prior to the 
test and an engineering report shall be submitted to the Administrator 
describing the corrective action taken. Based on the engineering report, 
the Administrator will determine if the engine shall be used as an 
emission-data engine.
    (B) If the Administrator determines that the test data developed 
under paragraph (b)(3)(iii)(A) of this section would cause the emission-
data engine to fail due to excessive 125-hour emission values or by the 
application of the appropriate deterioration factor, then the following 
procedure shall be observed:
    (1) The manufacturer may request a retest. Before the retest, those 
engine parameters which the Administrator has not determined to be 
subject to adjustment for certification testing in accordance with 
Sec. 86.085-22(e)(1) may be readjusted to the manufacturer's 
specifications, if these adjustments were made incorrectly prior to the 
first test. The Administrator may adjust or cause to be adjusted any 
parameter which the Administrator has determined to be subject to 
adjustment in accordance with Sec. 86.085-22(e)(3)(i). However, if the 
idle speed parameter is one which the Administrator has determined to be 
subject to adjustment, the Administrator shall not adjust it to a 
setting which causes a higher engine idle speed than would have been 
possible within the physically adjustable range of the idle speed 
parameter on the engine before it accumulated any dynamometer service, 
all other parameters being identically adjusted for the purpose of the 
comparison. Other maintenance or repairs may be performed in accordance 
with Sec. 86.088-25. All work on the vehicle shall be done at such 
location and under such conditions as the Administrator may prescribe.
    (2) The engine will be retested by the Administrator and the results 
of this test shall comprise the official data for the emission-data 
engine.
    (iv) If sufficient durability data are not available at the time of 
any emission test conducted under paragraph (b)(2) of this section to 
enable the Administrator to determine whether an emission-data engine 
would fail, the manufacturer may request a retest in accordance with the 
provisions of paragraph (b)(3)(iii)(B) (1) and (2) of this section. If 
the manufacturer does not promptly make such request, he shall be deemed 
to have waived the right to a retest. A request for retest must be made 
before the manufacturer removes the engine from the test premises.
    (c)(1) Paragraph (c) of this section applies to gasoline-fueled and 
methanol-fueled heavy-duty vehicles.
    (2) The Administrator may require that any one or more of the 
evaporative emission family-system combinations included in the 
manufacturer's statement(s) of compliance be installed on an appropriate 
vehicle and such vehicle be submitted to him, at such place or places as 
he may designate, for the purpose of conducting emissions tests. The 
Administrator may specify that he will conduct such testing at the 
manufacturer's facility, in which case instrumentation and equipment 
specified by the Administrator shall be made available by the 
manufacturer for test operations. Any testing conducted at a 
manufacturer's facility pursuant to this paragraph shall be scheduled by 
the manufacturer as promptly as possible.
    (3)(i) Whenever the Administrator conducts a test segment on an 
evaporative emission family-system combination, the results of that test 
segment, unless subsequently invalidated by the Administrator, shall 
comprise the official data for that test segment for the evaporative 
emission family-system combination, and the manufacturer's data, 
analyses, etc., for that test segment shall not be used in determining 
compliance with emission standards. The Administrator may stop a test 
after any evaporative test segment and use as official data any valid 
results obtained up to that point in the test, as described in subpart B 
of this part.
    (ii) Whenever the Administrator does not conduct a test on an 
evaporative emission family-system combination,

[[Page 143]]

the manufacturer's test data will be accepted as the official data: 
Provided, That if the Administrator makes a determination, based on 
testing under paragraph (c)(2) of this section, that there is a lack of 
correlation between the manufacturer's test equipment and the test 
equipment used by the Administrator, no manufacturer's test data will be 
accepted for purposes of certification until the reasons for the lack of 
correlation are determined and the validity of the data is established 
by the manufacturer, And further provided, That if the Administrator has 
reasonable basis to believe that any test data, analyses, or other 
information submitted by the manufacturer is not accurate or has been 
obtained in violation of any provision of this part, the Administrator 
may refuse to accept those data, analyses, etc., as the official data 
pending retesting or submission of further information.

Sec. 86.091-30  Certification.

    (a)(1)(i) If, after a review of the test reports and data submitted 
by the manufacturer, data derived from any inspection carried out under 
Sec. 86.091-7(d), and any other pertinent data or information, the 
Administrator determines that a test vehicle(s) (or test engine(s)) 
meets(s) the requirements of the Act and of this subpart, he will issue 
a certificate of conformity with respect to such vehicles(s) (or 
engines(s)) except in cases covered by paragraphs (a)(1)(ii) and (c) of 
this section.
    (ii) Gasoline-fueled and methanol-fueled heavy-duty vehicles. If, 
after a review of the statement(s) of compliance submitted by the 
manufacturer under Sec. 86.091-23(b)(4) and any other pertinent data or 
information, the Administrator determines that the requirements of the 
Act and this subpart have been met, he will issue one certificate of 
conformity per manufacturer with respect to the evaporative emission 
family(s) covered by such statement(s) except in cases covered by 
paragraph (c) of this section.
    (2) Such certificate will be issued for such period not to exceed 
one model year as the Administrator may determine and upon such terms as 
he may deem necessary or appropriate to assure that any new motor 
vehicle (or new motor vehicle engine) covered by the certificate will 
meet the requirements of the Act and of this part.
    (3)(i) One such certificate will be issued for each engine family. 
For gasoline-fueled and methanol fueled light-duty vehicles and light-
duty trucks, one such certificate will be issued for each engine family 
evaporative emission family combination.
    (A) Light-duty vehicles. Each certificate will certify compliance 
with no more than one set of standards (or family emission limits, as 
appropriate).
    (B) Light-duty trucks. Each certificate will certify compliance with 
no more than one set of standards (or family emission limits, as 
appropriate), except for low-altitude standards and high altitude 
standards. The certificate shall state that it covers vehicles sold or 
delivered to an ultimate purchaser for principal use at a designated 
high-altitude location only if the vehicle conforms in all material 
respects to the design specifications that apply to those vehicles 
described in the application for certification at high altitude.
    (ii) For gasoline-fueled and methanol fueled heavy-duty vehicles, 
one such certificate will be issued for each manufacturer and will 
certify compliance for those vehicles previously identified in that 
manufacturer's statement(s) of compliance as required in Sec. 86.091-
23(b)(4) (i) and (ii).
    (iii) For diesel light-duty vehicles and light-duty trucks, or 
diesel heavy-duty engines, included in the applicable particulate 
averaging program, the manufacturer may at any time during production 
elect to change the level of any family particulate emission limit by 
demonstrating compliance with the new limit as described in 
Secs. 86.091-28(a)(6) and 86.091-28(b)(5)(i). New certificates issued 
under this paragraph will be applicable only for vehicles (or engines) 
produced subsequent to the date of issuance.

[[Page 144]]

    (iv) For light-duty trucks or heavy-duty engines included in the 
applicable NOX averaging program, the manufacturer may at any 
time during production elect to change the level of any family 
NOX emission limit by demonstrating compliance with the new 
limit as described in Sec. 86.091-28(b)(5)(ii). New certificates issued 
under this paragraph will be applicable only for vehicles (or engines) 
produced subsequent to the day of issue.
    (4)(i) The adjustment or modification of any light-duty truck in 
accordance with instructions provided by the manufacturer for the 
altitude where the vehicle is principally used will not be considered a 
violation of section 203(a)(3) of the Clean Air Act.
    (ii) A violation of section 203(a)(1) of the Clean Air Act occurs 
when a manufacturer sells or delivers to an ultimate purchaser any 
light-duty vehicle or light-duty truck, subject to the regulations under 
the Act, under any of the conditions specified in the remainder of this 
paragraph.
    (A) When a light-duty vehicle or light-duty truck is not configured 
to meet high-altitude requirements:
    (1) At a designated high-altitude location, unless such manufacturer 
has reason to believe that such vehicle will not be sold to an ultimate 
purchaser for principal use at a designated high-altitude location; or
    (2) At a location other than a designated high-altitude location, 
when such manufacturer has reason to believe that such motor vehicle 
will be sold to an ultimate purchaser for principal use at a designated 
high-altitude location.
    (B) When a light-duty vehicle is not configured to meet low-altitude 
requirements, as provided in Sec. 86.087-8(i):
    (1) At a designated low-altitude location, unless such manufacturer 
has reason to believe that such vehicle will not be sold to an ultimate 
purchaser for principal use at a designated low-altitude location; or
    (2) At a location other than a designated low-altitude location, 
when such manufacturer has reason to believe that such motor vehicle 
will be sold to an ultimate purchaser for principal use at a designated 
low-altitude location.
    (iii) A manufacturer shall be deemed to have reason to believe that 
a light-duty vehicle that has been exempted from compliance with 
emission standards at high-altitude, or a light-duty truck which is not 
configured to meet high-altitude requirements, will not be sold to an 
ultimate purchaser for principal use at a designated high-altitude 
location if the manufacturer has informed its dealers and field 
representatives about the terms of these high-altitude regulations, has 
not caused the improper sale itself, and has taken reasonable action 
which shall include, but not be limited to, either paragraph (a)(4)(iii) 
(A) or (B), and (a)(4)(ii)(C) of this section:
    (A) Requiring dealers in designated high-altitude locations to 
submit written statements to the manufacturer signed by the ultimate 
purchaser that a vehicle which is not configured to meet high-altitude 
requirements will not be used principally at a designated high-altitude 
location; requiring dealers in counties contiguous to designated high-
altitude locations to submit written statements to the manufacturer, 
signed by the ultimate purchaser who represents to the dealer in the 
normal course of business that he or she resides in a designated high-
altitude location, that a vehicle which is not configured to meet high-
altitude requirements will not be used principally at a designated high-
altitude location; and for each sale or delivery of fleets of ten or 
more such vehicles in a high-altitude location or in counties contiguous 
to high-altitude locations, requiring either the selling dealer or the 
delivering dealer to submit written statements to the manufacturer, 
signed by the ultimate purchaser who represents to the dealer in the 
normal course of business that he or she resides in a designated high-
altitude location, that a vehicle which is not configured to meet high-
altitude requirements will not be used principally at a designated high-
altitude location. In addition, the manufacturer will make available to 
EPA, upon reasonable written request (but not more frequently than 
quarterly, unless EPA has demonstrated that it has substantial reason to 
believe that an improperly configured vehicle has been sold), sales,

[[Page 145]]

warranty, or other information pertaining to sales of vehicles by the 
dealers described above maintained by the manufacturer in the normal 
course of business relating to the altitude configuration of vehicles 
and the locations of ultimate purchasers; or
    (B) Implementing a system which monitors factory orders of low-
altitude vehicles by high-altitude dealers, or through other means, 
identifies dealers that may have sold or delivered a vehicle not 
configured to meet the high-altitude requirements to an ultimate 
purchaser for principal use at a designated high-altitude location; and 
making such information available to EPA upon reasonable written request 
(but not more frequently than quarterly, unless EPA has demonstrated 
that it has substantial reason to believe that an improperly configured 
vehicle has been sold); and
    (C) Within a reasonable time after receiving written notice from EPA 
or a State or local government agency that a dealer may have improperly 
sold or delivered a vehicle not configured to meet the high-altitude 
requirements to an ultimate purchaser residing in a designated high-
altitude location, or based on information obtained pursuant to 
paragraph (a)(4)(iii) of this section that a dealer may have improperly 
sold or delivered a significant number of such vehicles to ultimate 
purchasers so residing, reminding the dealer in writing of the 
requirements of these regulations, and, where appropriate, warning the 
dealer that sale by the dealer of vehicles not configured to meet high-
altitude requirements may be contrary to the terms of its franchise 
agreement with the manufacturer and the dealer certification 
requirements of Sec. 85.2108 of this chapter.
    (iv) A manufacturer shall be deemed to have reason to believe that a 
light-duty vehicle which has been exempted from compliance with emission 
standards at low-altitude, as provided in Sec. 86.087-8(i), will not be 
sold to an ultimate purchaser for principal use at a designated low-
altitude location if the manufacturer has informed its dealers and field 
representatives about the terms of the high-altitude regulations, has 
not caused the improper sale itself, and has taken reasonable action 
which shall include, but not be limited to, either paragraph (a)(4)(iv) 
(A) or (B), and (a)(4)(iv)(C) of this section:
    (A) Requiring dealers in designated low-altitude locations to submit 
written statements to the manufacturer signed by the ultimate purchaser 
that a vehicle which is not configured to meet low-altitude requirements 
will not be used principally at a designated low-altitude location; 
requiring dealers in counties contiguous to designated low-altitude 
locations to submit written statements to the manufacturer, signed by 
the ultimate purchaser who represents to the dealer in the normal course 
of business that he or she resides in a designated low-altitude 
location, that a vehicle which is not configured to meet low-altitude 
requirements will not be used principally at a designated low-altitude 
location; and for each sale or delivery of fleets of ten or more such 
vehicles in a low-altitude location or in counties contiguous to low-
altitude locations, requiring either the selling dealer or the 
delivering dealer to submit written statements to the manufacturer, 
signed by the ultimate purchaser who represents to the dealer in the 
normal course of business that he or she resides in a designated low-
altitude location, that a vehicle which is not configured to meet low-
altitude requirements will not be used principally at a designated high-
altitude location. In addition, the manufacturer will make available to 
EPA, upon reasonable written request (but not more frequently than 
quarterly, unless EPA has demonstrated that it has substantial reason to 
believe that an improperly configured vehicle has been sold), sales, 
warranty, or other information pertaining to sales of vehicles by the 
dealers described above maintained by the manufacturer in the normal 
course of business relating to the altitude configuration of vehicles 
and the locations of ultimate purchasers; or
    (B) Implementing a system which monitors factory orders of high-
altitude vehicles by low-altitude dealers, or through other means, 
identifies dealers that may have sold or delivered a vehicle not 
configured to meet the low-altitude requirements to an ultimate 
purchaser for principal use at a

    (6) Catalyst-equipped vehicles, otherwise covered by a certificate, 
which are driven outside the United States, Canada, and Mexico will be 
presumed to have been operated on leaded gasoline resulting in 
deactivation of the catalysts. If these vehicles are imported or offered 
for importation without retrofit of the catalyst, they will be 
considered not to be within the coverage of the certificate unless 
included in a catalyst control program operated by a manufacturer or a 
United States Government agency and approved by the Administrator.
    (7) For incomplete light-duty trucks, a certificate covers only 
those new motor vehicles which, when completed by having the primary 
load-carrying device or container attached, conform to the maximum curb 
weight and frontal area limitations described in the application for 
certification as required in Sec. 86.091-21(d).
    (8) For heavy-duty engines, a certificate covers only those new 
motor vehicle engines installed in heavy-duty vehicles which conform to 
the minimum gross vehicle weight rating, curb weight, or frontal area 
limitations for heavy-duty vehicles described in Sec. 86.082-2.
    (9) For incomplete gasoline-fueled and methanol-fueled heavy-duty 
vehicles a certificate covers only those new motor vehicles which, when 
completed, conform to the nominal maximum fuel tank capacity limitations 
as described in the application for certification as required in 
Sec. 86.091-21(e).
    (10)(i) For diesel light-duty vehicle and diesel light-duty truck 
families which are included in a particulate averaging program, the 
manufacturer's production-weighted average of the particulate emission 
limits of all engine families in a participating class or classes shall 
not exceed the applicable diesel particulate standard, or the composite 
particulate standard defined in Sec. 86.090-2 as appropriate, at the end 
of the model year, as determined in accordance with 40 CFR part 86. The 
certificate shall be void ab initio for those vehicles causing the 
production-weighted FEL to exceed the particulate standard.
    (ii) For all heavy-duty diesel engines which are included in the 
particulate averaging, trading, or banking programs under Sec. 86.091-
15:

[[Page 148]]

    (A) All certificates issued are conditional upon the manufacturer 
complying with the provisions of Sec. 86.091-15 and the averaging, 
trading, and banking related provision of other applicable sections, 
both during and after the model year production.
    (B) Failure to comply with all provisions of Sec. 86.091-15 will be 
considered to be a failure to satisfy the conditions upon which the 
certificate was issued, and the certificate may be deemed void ab 
initio. 
    (C) The manufacturer shall bear the burden of establishing to the 
satisfaction of the Administrator that the conditions upon which the 
certificate was issued were satisfied or excused.
    (b)(1) The Administrator will determine whether a vehicle (or 
engine) covered by the application complies with applicable standards 
(or family emission limits, as appropriate) by observing the following 
relationships:
    (i) Light-duty vehicles. (A) The durability data vehicle(s) selected 
under Sec. 86.090-24(c)(1)(i) shall represent all vehicles of the same 
engine system combination.

statement of compliance submitted under Sec. 86.091-23(b)(4) (i) or (ii) 
shall represent all vehicles in the same evaporative emission family-
evaporative emission control system combination.
    (2) The Administrator will proceed as in paragraph (a) of this 
section with respect to the vehicles (or engines) belonging to an engine 
family or engine family-evaporative emission family combination (as 
applicable), all of which comply with all applicable standards (or 
family emission limits, as appropriate).
    (3) If after a review of the test reports and data submitted by the 
manufacturer, data derived from any additional testing conducted 
pursuant to Sec. 86.090-29, data or information derived from any 
inspection carried out under Sec. 86.091-7(d) or any other pertinent 
data or information, the Administrator determines that one or more test 
vehicles (or test engines) of the certification test fleet do not meet 
applicable standards (or family emission limits, as appropriate), he 
will notify the manufacturer in writing, setting forth the basis for his 
determination. Within 30 days following receipt of the notification, the 
manufacturer may request a hearing on the Administrator's determination. 
The request shall be in writing, signed by an authorized representative 
of the manufacturer and shall include a

[[Page 149]]

statement specifying the manufacturer's objections to the 
Administrator's determination and data in support of such objections. 
If, after a review of the request and supporting data, the Administrator 
finds that the request raises a substantial factual issue, he shall 
provide the manufacturer a hearing in accordance with Sec. 86.078-6 with 
respect to such issue.
    (4) For light-duty vehicles and light-duty trucks the manufacturer 
may, at its option, proceed with any of the following alternatives with 
respect to an emission-data vehicle determined not in compliance with 
all applicable standards (or family emission limits, as appropriate) for 
which it was tested:
    (i) Request a hearing under Sec. 86.078-6; or
    (ii) Remove the vehicle configuration (or evaporative vehicle 
configuration, as applicable) which failed, from his application;
    (A) If the failed vehicle was tested for compliance with exhaust 
emission standards (or family emission limits, as appropriate) only: The 
Administrator may select, in place of the failed vehicle, in accordance 
with the selection criteria employed in selecting the failed vehicle, a 
new emission-data vehicle to be tested for exhaust emission compliance 
only.
    (B) If the failed vehicle was tested for compliance with both 
exhaust and evaporative emission standards: The Administrator may 
select, in place of the failed vehicle, in accordance with the selection 
criteria employed in selecting the failed vehicle, a new emission-data 
vehicle which will be tested for compliance with both exhaust and 
evaporative emission standards. If one vehicle cannot be selected in 
accordance with the selection criteria employed in selecting the failed 
vehicle, then two vehicles may be selected (i.e., one vehicle to satisfy 
the exhaust emission vehicle selection criteria and one vehicle to 
satisfy the evaporative emission vehicle selection criteria). The 
vehicle selected to satisfy the exhaust emission vehicle selection 
criteria will be tested for compliance with exhaust emission standards 
(or family emission limits, as appropriate) only. The vehicle selected 
to satisfy the evaporative emission vehicle selection criteria will be 
tested for compliance with both exhaust and evaporative emission 
standards; or
    (iii) Remove the vehicle configuration (or evaporative vehicle 
configuration, as applicable) which failed from the application and add 
a vehicle configuration(s) (or evaporative vehicle configuration(s), as 
applicable) not previously listed. The Administrator may require, if 
applicable, that the failed vehicle be modified to the new engine code 
(or evaporative emission code, as applicable) and demonstrate by testing 
that it meets applicable standards (or family emission limits, as 
appropriate) for which it was originally tested. In addition, the 
Administrator may select, in accordance with the vehicle selection 
criteria given in Sec. 86.090-24(b), a new emission-data vehicle or 
vehicles. The vehicles selected to satisfy the exhaust emission vehicle 
selection criteria will be tested for compliance with exhaust emission 
standards (or family emission limits, as appropriate) only. The vehicles 
selected to satisfy the evaporative emission vehicle selection criteria 
will be tested for compliance with both exhaust and evaporative emission 
standards (or family emission limits, as appropriate); or
    (iv) Correct a component or system malfunction and show that with a 
correctly functioning system or component the failed vehicle meets 
applicable standards (or family emission limits, as appropriate) for 
which it was originally tested. The Administrator may require a new 
emission-data vehicle, of identical vehicle configuration (or 
evaporative vehicle configuration, as applicable) to the failed vehicle, 
to be operated and tested for compliance with the applicable standards 
(or family emission limits, as appropriate) for which the failed vehicle 
was originally tested.
    (5) For heavy-duty engines the manufacturer may, at his option, 
proceed with any of the following alternatives with respect to any 
engine family represented by a test engine(s) determined not in 
complinace with applicable standards (or family emission limit, as 
appropriate):
    (i) Request a hearing under Sec. 86.078-6; or

[[Page 150]]

    (ii) Delete from the application for certification the engines 
represented by the failing test engine. (Engines so deleted may be 
included in a later request for certification under Sec. 86.079-32.) The 
Administrator may then select in place of each failing engine an 
alternate engine chosen in accordance with selection criteria employed 
in selecting the engine that failed; or
    (iii) Modify the test engine and demonstrate by testing that it 
meets applicable standards. Another engine which is in all material 
respects the same as the first engine, as modified, may then be operated 
and tested in accordance with applicable test procedures.
    (6) If the manufacturer does not request a hearing or present the 
required data under paragraphs (b)(4) or (b)(5) of this section (as 
applicable) of this section, the Administrator will deny certification.
    (c)(1) Notwithstanding the fact that any certification vehicle(s) 
(or certification engine(s)) may comply with other provisions of this 
subpart, the Administrator may withhold or deny the issuance of a 
certificate of conformity (or suspend or revoke any such certificate 
which has been issued) with respect to any such vehicle(s) (or 
engine(s)) if:
    (i) The manufacturer submits false or incomplete information in his 
application for certification thereof;
    (ii) The manufacturer renders inaccurate any test data which he 
submits pertaining thereto or otherwise circumvents the intent of the 
Act, or of this part with respect to such vehicle (or engine);
    (iii) Any EPA Enforcement Officer is denied access on the terms 
specified in Sec. 86.091-7(d) to any facility or portion thereof which 
contains any of the following:
    (A) The vehicle (or engine):
    (B) Any components used or considered for use in its modification or 
buildup into a certification vehicle (or certification engine);
    (C) Any production vehicle (or production engine) which is or will 
be claimed by the manufacturer to be covered by the certificate;
    (D) Any step in the construction of a vehicle (or engine) described 
in paragraph (c)(iii)(C) of this section;
    (E) Any records, documents, reports, or histories required by this 
part to be kept concerning any of the above;
    (iv) Any EPA Enforcement Officer is denied ``reasonable assistance'' 
(as defined in Sec. 86.091-7(d) in examining any of the items listed in 
paragraph (c)(1)(iii) of this section.
    (2) The sanctions of withholding, denying, revoking, or suspending 
of a certificate may be imposed for the reasons in paragraphs 
(c)(1)(i),(ii),(iii), or (iv) of this section only when the infraction 
is substantial.
    (3) In any case in which a manufacturer knowingly submits false or 
inaccurate information or knowingly renders inaccurate or invalid any 
test data or commits any other fraudulent acts and such acts contribute 
substantially to the Administrator's decision to issue a certificate of 
conformity, the Administrator may deem such certificate void ab initio.
    (4) In any case in which certification of a vehicle (or engine) is 
proposed to be withheld, denied, revoked, or suspended under paragraph 
(c)(1) (iii) or (iv) of this section, and in which the Administrator has 
presented to the manufacturer involved reasonable evidence that a 
violation of Sec. 86.091-7(d) in fact occurred, the manufacturer, if he 
wishes to contend that, even though the violation occurred, the vehicle 
(or engine) in question was not involved in the violation to a degree 
that would warrant withholding, denial, revocation, or suspension of 
certification under either paragraph (c)(1) (iii) or (iv) of this 
section, shall have the burden of establishing that contention to the 
satisfaction of the Administrator.
    (5) Any revocation or suspension of certification under paragraph 
(c)(1) of this section shall:
    (i) Be made only after the manufacturer concerned has been offered 
an opportunity for a hearing conducted in accordance with Sec. 86.078-6 
hereof.
    (ii) Extend no further than to forbid the introduction into commerce 
of vehicles (or engines) previously covered by the certification which 
are still in the hands of the manufacturer, except in cases of such 
fraud or other misconduct as makes the certification invalid ab initio.

[[Page 151]]

    (6) The manufacturer may request in the form and manner specified in 
paragraph (b)(3) of this section that any determination made by the 
Administrator under paragraph (c)(1) of this section to withhold or deny 
certification be reviewed in a hearing conducted in accordance with 
Sec. 86.078-6. If the Administrator finds, after a review of the request 
and supporting data, that the request raises a substantial factual 
issue, he will grant the request with respect to such issue.
    (d)(1) For light-duty vehicles. Notwithstanding the fact that any 
vehicle configuration or engine family may be covered by a valid 
outstanding certificate of conformity, the Administrator may suspend 
such outstanding certificate of conformity in whole or in part with 
respect to such vehicle configuration or engine family if:
    (i) The manufacturer refuses to comply with the provisions of a test 
order issued by the Administrator pursuant to Sec. 86.603; or
    (ii) The manufacturer refuses to comply with any of the requirements 
of Sec. 86.603; or
    (iii) The manufacturer submits false or incomplete information in 
any report or information provided pursuant to the requirements of 
Sec. 86.609; or
    (iv) The manufacturer renders inaccurate any test data which he 
submits pursuant to Sec. 86.609; or
    (v) Any EPA Enforcement Officer is denied the opportunity to conduct 
activities related to entry and access as authorized in Sec. 86.606 of 
this part and in a warrant or court order presented to the manufacturer 
or the party in charge of a facility in question; or
    (vi) EPA Enforcement Officers are unable to conduct activities 
related to entry and access or to obtain ``reasonable assistance'' as 
authorized in Sec. 86.606 of this part because a manufacturer has 
located its facility in a foreign jurisdiction where local law prohibits 
those activities; or
    (vii) The manufacturer refuses to or in fact does not comply with 
Secs. 86.604(a), 86.605, 86.607, 86.608, or 86.610.
    (2) The sanction of suspending a certificate may not be imposed for 
the reasons in paragraph (d)(1)(i), (ii), or (vii) of this section where 
the refusal is caused by conditions and circumstances outside the 
control of the manufacturer which render it impossible to comply with 
those requirements.
    (3) The sanction of suspending a certificate may be imposed for the 
reasons in paragraph (d)(1)(iii), (iv), or (v) of this section only when 
the infraction is substantial.
    (4) In any case in which a manufacturer knowingly submitted false or 
inaccurate information or knowingly rendered inaccurate any test data or 
committed any other fraudulent acts, and such acts contributed 
substantially to the Administrator's original decision not to suspend or 
revoke a certificate of conformity in whole or in part, the 
Administrator may deem such certificate void from the date of such 
fraudulent act.
    (5) In any case in which certification of a vehicle is proposed to 
be suspended under paragraph (d)(1)(v) of this section and in which the 
Administrator has presented to the manufacturer involved reasonable 
evidence that a violation of Sec. 86.606 in fact occurred, if the 
manufacturer wishes to contend that, although the violation occurred, 
the vehicle configuration or engine family in question was not involved 
in the violation to a degree that would warrant suspension of 
certification under paragraph (d)(1)(v) of this section, the 
manufacturer shall have the burden of establishing the contention to the 
satisfaction of the Administrator.
    (6) Any suspension of certification under paragraph (d)(1) of this 
section shall:
    (i) Be made only after the manufacturer concerned has been offered 
an opportunity for a hearing conducted in accordance with Sec. 86.614; 
and
    (ii) Not apply to vehicles no longer in the hands of the 
manufacturer.
    (7) Any voiding of a certificate of conformity under paragraph 
(d)(4) of this section will be made only after the manufacturer 
concerned has been offered an opportunity for a hearing conducted in 
accordance with Sec. 86.614.
    (e) For light-duty trucks and heavy-duty engines. (1) 
Notwithstanding the fact that any vehicle configuration or engine family 
may be covered by a

[[Page 152]]

valid outstanding certificate of conformity, the Administrator may 
suspend such outstanding certificate of conformity in whole or in part 
with respect to such vehicle or engine configuration or engine family 
if:
    (i) The manufacturer refuses to comply with the provisions of a test 
order issued by the Administrator pursuant to Sec. 86.1003; or

of Sec. 86.1003; or
    (iii) The manufacturer submits false or incomplete information in 
any report or information provided pursuant to the requirements of 
Sec. 86.1009; or
    (iv) The manufacturer renders inaccurate any test data submitted 
pursuant to Sec. 86.1009; or
    (v) Any EPA Enforcement Officer is denied the opportunity to conduct 
activities related to entry and access as authorized in Sec. 86.1006 of 
this part and in a warrant or court order presented to the manufacturer 
or the party in charge of a facility in question; or
    (vi) EPA Enforcement Officers are unable to conduct activities 
related to entry and access as authorized in Sec. 86.1006 of this part 
because a manufacturer has located a facility in a foreign jurisdiction 
where local law prohibits those activities; or
    (vii) The manufacturer refuses to or in fact does not comply with 
the requirements of Secs. 86.1004(a), 86.1005, 86.1007, 86.1008, 
86.1010, 86.1011, or 86.1013.
    (2) The sanction of suspending a certificate may not be imposed for 
the reasons in paragraph (e)(1) (i), (ii), or (vii) of this section 
where such refusal or denial is caused by conditions and circumstances 
outside the control of the manufacturer which renders it impossible to 
comply with those requirements. Such conditions and circumstances shall 
include, but are not limited to, any uncontrollable factors which result 
in the temporary unavailability of equipment and personnel needed to 
conduct the required tests, such as equipment breakdown or failure or 
illness of personnel, but shall not include failure of the manufacturers 
to adequately plan for and provide the equipment and personnel needed to 
conduct the tests. The manufacturer will bear the burden of establishing 
the presence of the conditions and circumstances required by this 
paragraph.
    (3) The sanction of suspending a certificate may be imposed for the 
reasons outlined in paragraph (e)(1) (iii), (iv), or (v) of this section 
only when the infraction is substantial.
    (4) In any case in which a manufacturer knowingly submitted false or

Administrator may deem such certificate void from the date of such 
fraudulent act.
    (5) In any case in which certification of a light-duty truck or 
heavy-duty engine is proposed to be suspended under paragraph (e)(1)(v) 
of this section and in which the Administrator has presented to the 
manufacturer involved reasonable evidence that a violation of 
Sec. 86.1006 in fact occurred, if the manufacturer wishes to contend 
that, although the violation occurred, the vehicle or engine 
configuration or engine family in question was not involved in the 
violation to a degree that would warrant suspension of certification 
under paragraph (e)(1)(v) of this section, he shall have the burden of 
establishing that contention to the satisfaction of the Administrator.
    (6) Any suspension of certification under paragraph (e)(1) of this 
section shall:
    (i) Be made only after the manufacturer concerned has been offered 
an opportunity for a hearing conducted in accordance with Sec. 86.1014, 
and
    (ii) Not apply to vehicles or engines no longer in the hands of the 
manufacturer.
    (7) Any voiding of a certificate of conformity under paragraph 
(e)(4) of this section shall be made only after the manufacturer 
concerned has been

Sec. 86.092-1  General applicability.

    (a) The provisions of this subpart apply to 1992 and later model 
year new Otto-cycle and diesel light-duty vehicles, 1992 and later model 
year new Otto-cycle and diesel light-duty trucks, and 1992 and later 
model year new Otto-cycle and diesel heavy-duty engines. The provisions 
of this subpart are optional for vehicles fueled with either natural gas 
or liquefied petroleum gas for the 1994 through 1996 model years. The 
provisions of this subpart also apply to aftermarket conversions of all 
model year Otto-cycle and diesel light-duty vehicles, Otto-cycle and 
diesel light-duty trucks, and Otto-cycle and diesel heavy-duty engines 
certified under the provisions of 40 CFR part 85, subpart F.
    (b) Optional applicability. A manufacturer may request to certify 
any heavy-duty vehicle of 10,000 pounds Gross Vehicle Weight Rating or 
less in accordance with the light-duty truck provisions. Heavy-duty 
engine or vehicle provisions do not apply to such a vehicle.
    (c) [Reserved]
    (d) Alternative Durability Program. For 1992 and later model year 
light-duty vehicles and light-duty trucks, a manufacturer may elect to 
participate in the Alternative Durability Program. This optional program 
provides an alternative method of determining exhaust emission control 
system durability.
    The general procedures and a description of the programs are 
contained in Sec. 86.085-13 and specific provisions on test vehicles and 
compliance procedures are contained in Sec. 86.092-24 and Sec. 86.091-28 
respectively.
    (e) Small volume manufacturers. Special certification procedures are 
available for any manufacturer whose projected combined U.S. sales of 
light-duty vehicles, light-duty trucks, heavy-duty vehicles, and heavy-
duty engines in its product line (including all vehicles and engines 
imported under the provisions of 40 CFR 85.1505 and 40 CFR 85.1509) are 
fewer than 10,000 units for the model year in which the manufacturer 
seeks certification. To certify its product line under these optional 
procedures, the small-volume manufacturer must first obtain the 
Administrator's approval. The manufacturer must meet the eligibility 
criteria specified in Sec. 86.092-14(b) before the Administrator's 
approval will be granted.

[[Page 159]]

The small-volume manufacturer's certification procedures are described 
in Sec. 86.092-14.
    (f) Optional procedures for determining exhaust opacity. (1) The 
provisions of subpart I apply to tests which are performed by the 
Administrator, and optionally, by the manufacturer.
    (2) Measurement procedures, other than that described in subpart I, 
may be used by the manufacturer provided the manufacturer satisfies the 
requirements of Sec. 86.091-23(f).
    (3) When a manufacturer chooses to use an alternative measurement 
procedure it has the responsibility to determine whether the results 
obtained by the procedure will correlate with the results which would be 
obtained from the measurement procedure in subpart I. Consequently, the 
Administrator will not routinely approve or disapprove any alternative 
opacity measurement procedure or any associated correlation data which 
the manufacturer elects to use to satisfy the data requirements for 
subpart I.
    (4) If a confirmatory test(s) is performed and the results indicate 
there is a systematic problem suggesting that the data generated under 
an optional alternative measurement procedure do not adequately 
correlate with subpart I data, EPA may require that all certificates of 
conformity not already issued be based on data from subpart I 
procedures.

Sec. 86.092-2  Definitions.

    The definitions of Sec. 86.091-2 remain effective. The definitions 
listed in this section apply beginning with the 1992 model year.
    (a) Proven emission control systems are emission control components 
or systems (and fuel metering systems) that have completed full 
durability testing evaluation over a vehicle's useful life in some other 
certified engine family, or have completed bench or road testing 
demonstrated to be equal or more severe than certification mileage 
accumulation requirements. Alternatively, proven components or systems 
are those that are determined by EPA to be of comparable functional 
quality and manufactured using comparable materials and production 
techniques as components or systems which have been durability 
demonstrated in some other certified engine family. In addition, the 
components or systems must be employed in an operating environment 
(e.g., temperature, exhaust flow, etc.,) similar to that experienced by 
the original or comparable components or systems in the original 
certified engine family.
    (b) Unproven emission control systems are emission control 
components or systems (and fuel metering systems) that do not qualify as 
proven emission control systems.
    (c) Similar systems are engine, fuel metering and emission control 
system combinations which use the same fuel (e.g., gasoline, diesel, 
etc.), combustion cycle (i.e., two or four stroke), general type of fuel 
system (i.e., carburetor or fuel injection), catalyst system (e.g., 
none, oxidization, three-way plus oxidization, three-way only, etc.), 
fuel control system (i.e., feedback or non-feedback), secondary air 
system (i.e., equipped or not equipped) and EGR (i.e., equipped or not 
equipped).
    (d) Conveniently available service facility and spare parts for 
small-volume manufacturers means that the vehicle manufacturer has a 
qualified service facility at or near the authorized point of sale or 
delivery of its vehicles and maintains an inventory of all emission-
related spare parts or has made arrangements for the part manufacturers 
to supply the parts by expedited shipment (e.g., utilizing overnight 
express delivery service, UPS, etc.).

third party has equity ownership of 10 percent or more in each of the 
firms;
    (iii) Vehicles and/or engines produced by two or more firms having a 
common corporate officer(s) who is(are) responsible for the overall 
direction of the companies;
    (iv) Vehicles and/or engines imported or distributed by all firms 
where the vehicles and/or engines are manufactured by the same entity 
and the importer or distributer is an authorized agent of the entity.
    (3) If the aggregated sales, as determined in paragraph (b)(2) of 
this section are less than 301 units, the manufacturers in the 
aggregated relationship may certify under the provisions in this section 
that apply to manufacturers with sales of less than 301 units.
    (4) If the aggregated sales, as determined in paragraph (b)(2) of 
this section are greater than 300 but fewer than 10,000 units, the 
manufacturers in the aggregated relationship may certify under the 
provisions in this section that apply to manufacturers with sales from 
and including 301 through 9,999 motor vehicles and motor vehicles 
engines per year.
    (5) If the aggregated sales, as determined in paragraph (b)(2) of 
this section are equal to or greater than 10,000 units, then the 
manufacturers involved in the aggregated relationship will be allowed to 
certify a number of units under the small-volume engine family 
certification procedures (40 CFR 86.092-24(e)) in accordance with the 
criteria identified below in this subparagraph.
    (i) If a manufacturer purchases less than 50 percent of another 
manufacturer, each manufacturer retains its right to certify 9,999 units

manufacturers may satisfy the requirements of paragraph (e) of 
Sec. 86.085-22 by including a statement of compliance on adjustable

[[Page 161]]

parameters in the application for certification. In the statement of 
compliance the manufacturer shall state that the limits, stops, seals, 
or other means used to inhibit adjustment have been designed to 
accomplish their intended purpose based on good engineering practice and 
past experience. If the vehicle parameter is adjustable the vehicle must 
meet emission standards with the parameter set any place within the 
adjustable range (Reference Sec. 86.090-21 of this subpart).
    (6) Section 86.090-23 of this subpart is applicable.
    (7) Section 86.092-24 of this subpart is applicable except as noted 
below.
    (i) Small-volume manufacturers may satisfy the requirements of 
paragraph (b) and (c) of Sec. 86.092-24 of this subpart by:
    (A) Emission-data--Selecting one emission-data test vehicle (engine) 
per engine family by the worst-case emissions criteria as follows:
    (1) Light-duty vehicles and light-duty trucks. The manufacturer 
shall select the vehicle with the heaviest equivalent test weight 
(including options) within the engine family. Then within that vehicle 
the manufacturer shall select, in the order listed, the highest road 
load power, largest displacement, the transmission with the highest 
numerical final gear ratio (including overdrive), the highest numerical 
axle ratio offered in the engine family, and the maximum fuel flow 
calibration.
    (2) Heavy-duty Otto-cycle engines. The manufacturer shall select one 
emission-data engine first based on the largest displacement within the 
engine family. Then within the largest displacement the manufacturer 
shall select, in the order listed, highest fuel flow at the speed of 
maximum rated torque, the engine with the most advanced spark timing, no 
EGR or lowest EGR flow, and no air pump or lowest actual flow air pump.
    (3) Heavy-duty diesel engines. The manufacturer shall select one 
emission-data engine based on the highest fuel feed per stroke, 
primarily at the speed of maximum rated torque and secondarily at rated 
speed.
    (B) Testing light-duty vehicles or light-duty truck emission-data 
vehicles at any service accumulation distance of at least 2,000 miles 
(3,219 kilometers) or, catalyst equipped heavy-duty emission-data 
engines at any service accumulation time of at least 62 hours, or non-
catalyst equipped heavy-duty engine emission-data engines at any service 
accumulation time determined by the manufacturer to result in stabilized 
emissions. The emission performance of the emission-data vehicle or 
engine must be stabilized prior to emission testing.
    (C) Durability data--Satisfying the durability-data requirements by 
complying with the applicable procedures below:
    (1) Manufacturers with aggregated sales of less than 301 motor 
vehicles and motor vehicle engines per year may use assigned 
deterioration factors that the Administrator determines and prescribes. 
The factors will be the Administrator's estimate, periodically updated 
and published in an advisory letter or advisory circular, of the 70th 
percentile deterioration factors calculated using the industrywide data 
base of previously completed durability-data vehicles or engines used 
for certification. However, the manufacturer may, at its option, 
accumulate miles (hours) on a durability-data vehicle (engine) and 
complete emission tests for the purpose of establishing its own 
deterioration factors.
    (2) Manufacturers with aggregated sales from and including 301 
through 9,999 motor vehicles and motor vehicle engines per year 
certifying light-duty vehicle exhaust emissions from vehicles equipped 
with proven emission control systems shall use assigned deterioration 
factors that the manufacturer determines based on its good engineering 
judgment. However, the manufacturer may not use deterioration factors 
less than either the average or 70th percentile of all of that 
manufacturer's deterioration factor data, whichever is less. These 
minimum deterioration factors shall be calculated according to 
procedures in paragraph (c)(7)(i)(C)(2)(i), of this section. If the 
manufacturer does not have at least two data points to calculate these 
manufacturer specific average deterioration factors, then the 
deterioration factors shall be no less than the EPA supplied 
industrywide deterioration

[[Page 162]]

factors. However, the manufacturer may, at its option, accumulate miles 
on a durability-data vehicle and complete emission tests for the purpose 
of establishing its own deterioration factors.
    (i) The manufacturer's minimum deterioration factors shall be 
calculated using the deterioration factors from all engine families, 
within the same vehicle/engine-fuel usage category (e.g., gasoline-
fueled light-duty vehicle, etc.) previously certified to the same 
emission standards. The manufacturer shall use only deterioration 
factors engine families previously certified by the manufacturer and the 
deterioration factors shall not be included in the calculation more than 
once. The deterioration factors for each pollutant shall be calculated 
separately. The manufacturer may, at its option, limit the deterioration 
factors used in the calculation of the manufacturer's minimum 
deterioration factors to those from all similar systems to the system 
being certified if sufficient data (i.e., from at least two certified 
systems) exists. All data eligible to be grouped as similar system data 
shall be used in calculating similar system deterioration factors. Any 
deterioration factors used in calculating similar system deterioration 
factors shall not be included in calculating the manufacturer's minimum 
deterioration factors used to certify any of the manufacturer's 
remaining vehicle systems.
    (3) Manufacturers with aggregated sales from 301 through 9,999 motor 
vehicles and motor vehicle engines and certifying light-duty vehicle 
exhaust emissions from vehicles equipped with unproven emission control 
systems shall use deterioration factors that the manufacturer determines 
from official certification durability data generated by vehicles from 
engine families representing a minimum of 25 percent of the 
manufacturer's sales equipped with unproven emission control systems. 
The sales projections are to be based on total sales projected for each 
engine/system combination. The durability-data vehicle (engine) mileage 
accumulation and emission tests are to be conducted according 
Sec. 86.092-26 of this subpart. The manufacturer must develop 
deterioration factors by generating durability data in accordance with 
Sec. 86.092-26 of this subpart on a minimum of 25 percent of the 
manufacturer's projected sales (by engine/system combination) that is 
equipped with unproven emission control systems. The manufacturer must 
complete the 25 percent durability requirement before the remainder of 
the manufacturer's sales equipped with unproven emission control systems 
is certified using manufacturer-determined assigned deterioration 
factors. Alternatively, any of these manufacturers may, at their option, 
accumulate miles on durability-data vehicles and complete emission tests 
for the purpose of establishing their own deterioration factors on the 
remaining sales.
    (4) For light-duty vehicle, light-duty truck, and heavy-duty vehicle 
evaporative emissions and light-duty truck, and heavy-duty engine 
exhaust emissions, deterioration factors shall be determined in 
accordance with Sec. 86.092-24 of this subpart.
    (ii) Paragraphs (d) and (e) of Sec. 86.092-24 of this subpart are 
not applicable.
    (8) Section 86.090-25 of this subpart is applicable to maintenance 
performed on durability-data light-duty vehicles, light-duty trucks, 
heavy-duty vehicles, and heavy-duty engines when the manufacturer 
completes durability-data vehicles or engines; section 86.087-38 of this 
subpart is applicable to the recommended maintenance the manufacturer 
includes in the maintenance instructions furnished the purchasers of new 
motor vehicles and new motor vehicle engines under Sec. 86.087-38 of 
this subpart.
    (9)(i) Section 86.092-26 of this subpart is applicable if the 
manufacturer completes durability-data vehicles or engines.
    (ii) Section 86.085-27 of this subpart is applicable.
    (10) Sections 86.090-28 and 86.090-29 of this subpart are 
applicable.
    (11)(i) Section 86.090-30 of this subpart is applicable, except for 
paragraph (a)(2) and (b) of that section. In the place of these 
paragraphs, small-volume manufacturer shall comply with paragraphs 
(c)(11)(ii) through (v) of this section, as shown below.

[[Page 163]]

will be provided information identifying the closest authorized service 
facility to the point of sale, if in the United States, or the closest 
authorized service facility to the point of distribution to the ultimate 
purchaser if the vehicle was purchased outside of the United States by 
the ultimate purchaser. Such information should also be made available 
to the Administrator upon request.
    (E) Manufacturers utilizing deterioration factors determined by the 
manufacturer based on its good engineering judgment (re: paragraph 
(c)(7)(i)(C)(2) of this section) shall provide a description of the 
method(s) used by the manufacturer to determine the deterioration 
factors.

[55 FR 7187, Feb. 28, 1990]



Sec. 86.092-15  NOX and particulate averaging, trading, and banking for heavy-duty engines.

    (a)(1) Heavy-duty engines eligible for the NOX and 
particulate averaging, trading, and banking programs are described in 
the applicable emission standards sections in this subpart. 
Participation in these programs is voluntary.
    (2)(i) Engine families with FELs exceeding the applicable standard 
shall obtain emission credits in a mass amount sufficient to address the 
shortfall. Credits may be obtained from averaging, trading, or banking, 
within the averaging set restrictions described in this section.

[[Page 165]]

    (ii) Engine families with FELs below the applicable standard will 
have emission credits available to average, trade, bank or a combination 
thereof. Credits may not be used to offset emissions that exceed an FEL. 
Credits may not be used to remedy an in-use nonconformity determined by 
a Selective Enforcement Audit or by recall testing. However, credits may 
be used to allow subsequent production of engines for the family in 
question if the manufacturer elects to recertify to a higher FEL.
    (iii) Credits scheduled to expire in the earliest model year shall 
be used, prior to using other available credits, to offset emissions of 
engine families with FELS exceeding the applicable standard.
    (b) Participation in the NOX and/or particulate 
averaging, trading, and banking programs shall be done as follows. (1) 
During certification, the manufacturer shall:
    (i) Declare its intent to include specific engine families in the 
averaging, trading and/or banking programs. Separate declarations are 
required for each program and for each pollutant (i.e., NOX 
and particulate).
    (ii) Declare an FEL for each engine family participating in one or 
more of these three programs.
    (A) The FEL must be to the same level of significant digits as the 
emission standard (one-tenth of a gram per brake horsepower for 
NOX emissions and one-hundredth of a gram per brake 
horsepower-hour for particulate emissions).
    (B) In no case may the FEL exceed the upper limit prescribed in the 
section concerning the applicable heavy-duty engine NOX and 
particulate emission standards.
    (iii) Calculate the projected emission credits (+/) based on 
quarterly production projections for each participating family and for 
each pollutant (NOX and particulate), using the equation in 
paragraph (c) of this section and the applicable factors for the 
specific engine family.
    (iv)(A) Determine and state the source of the needed credits 
according to quarterly projected production for engine families 
requiring credits for certification.
    (B) State where the quarterly projected credits will be applied for 
engine families generating credits.
    (C) Credits may be obtained from or applied to only engine families 
within the same averaging set as described in paragraphs (d) and (e) of 
this section. Credits available for averaging, trading, or banking as 
defined in Sec. 86.090-2, may be applied to a given engine famil(y) 
(ies), or reserved as defined in Sec. 86.091-2.
    (2) Based on this information each manufacturer's certification 
application must demonstrate:
    (i) That at the end of model year production, each engine family has 
a net emissions credit balance of zero or more using the methodology in 
paragraph (c) of this section with any credits obtained from averaging, 
trading or banking.
    (ii) The source of the credits to be used to comply with the 
emission standard if the FEL exceeds the standard, or where credits will 
be applied if the FEL is less than the emission standard. In cases where 
credits are being obtained, each engine family involved must state 
specifically the source (manufacturer/engine family) of the credits 
being used. In cases where credits are being generated/supplied, each 
engine family involved must state specifically the designated use 
(manufacturer/engine family or reserved) of the credits involved. All 
such reports shall include all credits involved in averaging, trading or 
banking.
    (3) During the model year manufacturers must:
    (i) Monitor projected versus actual production to be certain that 
compliance with the emission standards is achieved at the end of the 
model year.
    (ii) Provide the end of-model year reports required under 
Sec. 86.091-23.
    (iii) Maintain the quarterly records required under Sec. 86.091-
7(c)(8).
    (4) Projected credits based on information supplied in the 
certification application may be used to obtain a certificate of 
conformity. However, any such credits may be revoked based on review of 
end-of-model year reports, follow-up audits, and any other verification 
steps deemed appropriate by the Administrator.

[[Page 166]]

    (5) Compliance under averaging, banking, and trading will be 
determined at the end of the model year. Engine families without an 
adequate amount of actual NOX and/or particulate emission 
credits will violate the conditions of the certificate of conformity. 
The certificates of conformity may be voided ab initio for those engine 
families.
    (6) If EPA or the manufacturer determines that a reporting error 
occurred on an end-of-year report previously submitted to EPA under this 
section, the manufacturer's credits and credit calculations will be 
recalculated. Erroneous positive credits will be void. Erroneous 
negative credit balances may be adjusted by EPA.
    (i) If EPA review of a manufacturer's end-of-year report indicates 
an inadvertent credit shortfall, the manufacturer will be permitted to 
purchase the necessary credits to bring the credit balance for that 
engine family to zero, at the ratio of 1.2 credits purchased for every 
credit needed to bring the balance to zero. If sufficient credits are 
not available to bring the credit balance for the engine family in 
question to zero, EPA may void the certificate for that engine family ab 
initio.
    (ii) If within 180 days of receipt of the manufacturer's end-of-year 
report, EPA review determines a reporting error in the manufacturer's 
favor (i.e., resulting in a positive credit balance) or if the 
manufacturer discovers such an error within 180 days of EPA receipt of 
the end-of-year report, the credits will be restored for use by the 
manufacturer. For the 1992 model year, corrections to the end-of-year 
reports may be submitted until May 9, 1994.
    (c)(1) For each participating engine family, NOX and 
particulate emission credits (positive or negative) are to be calculated 
according to one of the following equations and rounded, in accordance 
with ASTM E29-67, to the nearest one-tenth of a Megagram (Mg). 
Consistent units are to be used throughout the equation.
    For determining credit need for all engine families and credit 
availability for engine families generating credits for averaging 
programs only:

Emission credits = (StdFEL)  x  (CF)  x  (UL)  x  (Production)  x  (106)

    For determining credit availability for engine families generating 
credits for trading or banking programs:

Emission credits = (StdFEL)  x  (CF)  x  (UL)  x  (Production)  x  (106) 
           x  (0.8)

Where:

Std=the current and applicable heavy-duty engine NOX or 
          particulate emission standard in grams per brake horsepower 
          hour or grams per Megajoule.
FEL=the NOX or particulate family emission limit for the 
          engine family in grams per brake horsepower-hour or grams per 
          Megajoule.
CF=a transient cycle conversion factor in BHP-hr/mi or MJ/mi, as given 
          in paragraph (c)(2) of this section.
UL=the useful life, or alternative life as described in paragraph (f) of 
          Sec. 86.090-21, for the given engine family in miles.
Production=the number of engines produced for U.S. sales within the 
          given engine family during the model year. Quarterly 
          production projections are used for initial certification. 
          Actual production is used for end-of-year compliance 
          determination.
0.8=a one-time discount applied to all credits to be banked or traded 
          within the model year generated. Banked credits traded in a 
          subsequent model year will not be subject to an additional 
          discount. Banked credits used in a subsequent model year's 
          averaging program will not have the discount restored.

    (2) The transient cycle conversion factor is the total (integrated) 
cycle brake horsepower-hour or Megajoules, divided by the equivalent 
mileage of the applicable transient cycle. For Otto-cycle heavy-duty 
engines, the equivalent mileage is 6.3 miles. For diesel heavy-duty 
engines, the equivalent mileage is 6.5 miles. When more than one 
configuration is chosen by EPA to be tested in the certification of an 
engine family (as described in Sec. 86.085-24), the conversion factor 
used is to be based upon the configuration generating the highest 
conversion factor when determining credit need and the lowest conversion 
factor when determining credit availability for banking, trading or 
averaging.
    (d) Averaging sets for NOX emission credits: The 
averaging and trading of NOX emission credits will only be 
allowed between heavy-duty engine families in the same averaging set and 
in the same regional category. Engines

[[Page 167]]

produced for sale in California constitute a separate regional category 
than engines produced for sale in the other 49 states. Banking and 
trading are not applicable to engines sold in California. The averaging 
sets for the averaging and trading of NOX emission credits 
for heavy-duty engines are defined as follows:
    (1) For Otto-cycle heavy-duty engines:
    (i) Otto-cycle heavy-duty engines constitute an averaging set. 
Averaging and trading among all Otto-cycle heavy-duty engine families is 
allowed. There are no subclass restrictions.
    (ii) Gasoline-fueled heavy-duty vehicles certified under the 
provisions of Sec. 86.085-1(b) may not average or trade credits with 
gasoline-fueled heavy-duty Otto-cycle engines, but may average or trade 
credits with light-duty trucks.
    (2) For diesel cycle heavy-duty engines:
    (i) Each of the three primary intended service classes for heavy-
duty diesel engines, as defined in Sec. 86.090-2, constitute an 
averaging set. Averaging and trading among all diesel cycle engine 
families within the same primary service class is allowed.
    (ii) Urban buses are treated as members of the primary intended 
service class where they would otherwise fall.
    (e) Averaging sets for particulate emission credits. The averaging 
and trading of particulate emission credits will only be allowed between 
diesel cycle heavy-duty engine families in the same averaging set and in 
the same regional category. Engines produced for sale in California 
constitute a separate regional category than engines produced for sale 
in the other 49 states. Banking and trading are not applicable to 
engines sold in California. The averaging sets for the averaging and 
trading of particulate emission credits for diesel cycle heavy-duty 
engines are defined as follows:
    (1) Engines intended for use in urban buses constitute a separate 
averaging set from all other heavy-duty engines. Averaging and trading 
among all diesel cycle bus engine families is allowed.
    (2) For heavy-duty engines, exclusive of urban bus engines, each of 
the three primary intended service classes for heavy-duty diesel cycle 
engines, as defined in Sec. 86.090-2, constitute an averaging set. 
Averaging and trading between diesel cycle engine families within the 
same primary service class is allowed.
    (3) Otto-cycle engines may not participate in particulate averaging, 
trading, or banking.
    (f) Banking of NOX and particulate emission credits:
    (1) Credit deposits. (i) Under this phase of the banking program, 
emission credits may be banked from engine families produced during the 
three model years prior to the effective model year of the new HDE 
NOX or particulate emission standard. Credits may not be 
banked from engine families made during any other model years.
    (ii) Manufacturers may bank credits only after the end of the model 
year and after EPA has reviewed their end-of-year report. During the 
model year and before submittal of the end-of-year report, credits 
originally designated in the certification process for banking will be 
considered reserved and may be redesignated for trading or averaging.
    (2) Credit withdrawals. (i) After being generated, banked/reserved 
credits shall be available for use three model years prior to, through 
three model years immediately after the effective date of the new HDE 
NOX or particulate emission standard, as applicable. However, 
credits not used within the period specified above shall be forfeited.
    (ii) Manufacturers withdrawing banked emission credits shall 
indicate so during certification and in their credit reports, as 
described in Sec. 86.091-23.
    (3) Use of banked emission credits. The use of banked credits shall 
be within the averaging set and other restrictions described in 
paragraphs (d) and (e) of this section, and only for the following 
purposes:
    (i) Banked credits may be used in averaging, trading, or in any 
combination thereof, during the certification period. Credits declared 
for banking from the previous model year but unreviewed by EPA may also 
be used. However, they may be revoked at a later time following EPA 
review of the end-of-year report or any subsequent audit actions.

[[Page 168]]

    (ii) Banked credits may not be used for NOX or 
particulate averaging and trading to offset emissions that exceed an 
FEL. Banked credits may not be used to remedy an in-use nonconformity 
determined by a Selective Enforcement Audit or by recall testing. 
However, banked credits may be used for subsequent production of the 
engine family if the manufacturer elects to recertify to a higher FEL.
    (g)(1) For purposes of this paragraph (g), assume NOX and 
particulate nonconformance penalties (NCPs) will be available for the 
1991 and later model year HDEs.
    (2) Engine families paying an NCP for noncompliance of any emission 
standard may not:
    (i) Participate in the averaging program,
    (ii) Generate emission credits for any pollutant under banking and 
trading, and
    (iii) Use emission credits for any pollutant from banking and 
trading.
    (3) If a manufacturer has any engine family to which application of 
NCPs and averaging, banking, and trading credits is desired, that family 
must be separated into two distinct families. One family, whose FEL 
equals the standard, must use NCPs only, while the other, whose FEL does 
not equal the standard, must use emission credits only.
    (4) If a manufacturer has any engine family in a given averaging set 
which is using NOX and/or particulate NCPs, none of that 
manufacturer's engine families in that averaging set may generate 
credits for banking and trading.
    (h) In the event of a negative credit balance in a trading 
situation, both the buyer and the seller would be liable.
    (i) Certification fuel used for credit generation must be of a type 
that is both available in use and expected to be used by the engine 
purchaser. Therefore, upon request by the Administrator, the engine 
manufacturer must provide information acceptable to the Administrator 
that the designated fuel is readily available commercially and would be 
used in customer service.

NOX and/or particulate averaging, trading, or banking 
programs for heavy-duty engines shall submit for each participating 
family:
    (1) In the application for certification:
    (i) A statement that the engines for which certification is 
requested will not, to the best of the manufacturer's belief, when 
included in any of the averaging, trading, or banking programs cause the 
applicable NOX or particulate standard(s) to be exceeded.
    (ii) The type (NOX or particulate) and the projected

the requirements outlined above.
[59 FR 14108, Mar. 25, 1994]



Sec. 86.092-24  Test vehicles and engines.

    (a)(1) The vehicles or engines covered by an application for 
certification will be divided into groupings of engines which are 
expected to have similar emission characteristics throughout their 
useful life. Each group of engines with similar emission characteristics 
shall be defined as a separate engine family.
    (2) To be classed in the same engine family, engines must be 
identical in all the following respects:
    (i) The cylinder bore center-to-center dimensions.
    (ii)-(iii) [Reserved]
    (iv) The cylinder block configuration (air cooled or water cooled; 
L-6, 90 deg. V-8, etc.).
    (v) The location of the intake and exhaust valves (or ports).
    (vi) The method of air aspiration.
    (vii) The combustion cycle.
    (viii) Catalytic converter characteristics.
    (ix) Thermal reactor characteristics.
    (x) Type of air inlet cooler (e.g., intercoolers and after-coolers) 
for diesel heavy-duty engines.
    (3)(i) Engines identical in all the respects listed in paragraph 
(a)(2) of this section may be further divided into different engine 
families if the Administrator determines that they may be expected to 
have different emission characteristics. This determination will be 
based upon a consideration of the following features of each engine:
    (A) The bore and stroke.
    (B) The surface-to-volume ratio of the nominally dimensioned 
cylinder at the top dead center positions.
    (C) The intake manifold induction port size and configuration.
    (D) The exhaust manifold port size and configuration.
    (E) The intake and exhaust valve sizes.
    (F) The fuel system.
    (G) The camshaft timing and ignition or injection timing 
characteristics.
    (ii) Light-duty trucks and heavy-duty engines produced in different 
model years and distinguishable in the

[[Page 172]]

respects listed in paragraph (a)(2) of this section shall be treated as 
belonging to a single engine family if the Administrator requires it, 
after determining that the engines may be expected to have similar 
emission deterioration characteristics.
    (4) Where engines are of a type which cannot be divided into engine 
families based upon the criteria listed in paragraphs (a)(2) and (a)(3) 
of this section, the Administrator will establish families for those 
engines based upon those features most related to their emission 
characteristics. Engines that are eligible to be included in the same 
engine family based on the criteria in paragraphs (a)(2) and (a)(3)(i) 
of this section may be further divided into different engine families if 
the manufacturer determines that they may be expected to have different 
emission characteristics. This determination will be based upon a 
consideration of the following features of each engine:
    (i) The dimension from the center line of the crankshaft to the 
center line of the camshaft.
    (ii) The dimension from the center line of the crankshaft to the top 
of the cylinder block head face.
    (iii) The size of the intake and exhaust valves (or ports).
    (5) The gasoline-fueled and methanol-fueled light-duty vehicles and 
light-duty trucks covered by an application for certification will be 
divided into groupings which are expected to have similar evaporative 
emission characteristics throughout their useful life. Each group of 
vehicles with similar evaporative emission characteristics shall be 
defined as a separate evaporative emission family.
    (6) For gasoline-fueled or methanol-fueled light-duty vehicles and 
light-duty trucks to be classed in the same evaporative emission family, 
vehicles must be similar with respect to:
    (i) Type of vapor storage device (e.g., canister, air cleaner, 
crankcase).
    (ii) Basic canister design.
    (iii) Fuel system.
    (7) Where vehicles are of a type which cannot be divided into 
evaporative emission families based on the criteria listed above, the 
Administrator will establish families for those vehicles based upon the 
features most related to their evaporative emission characteristics.
    (8)(i) If the manufacturer elects to participate in the Alternative 
Durability Program, the engine families covered by an application for 
certification shall be grouped based upon similar engine design and 
emission control system characteristics. Each of these groups shall 
constitute a separate engine family group.
    (ii) To be classed in the same engine family group, engine families 
must contain engines identical in all of the following respects:
    (A) The combustion cycle.
    (B) The cylinder block configuration (air-cooled or water-cooled; L-
6, V-8, rotary, etc.).
    (C) Displacement (engines of different displacement within 50 cubic 
inches or 15 percent of the largest displacement and contained within a 
multi-displacement engine family will be included in the same engine 
family group).
    (D) Catalytic converter usage and basic type (non-catalyst, 
oxidation catalyst only, three-way catalyst equipped).
    (9) Engine families identical in all respects listed in paragraph 
(a)(8) of this section may be further divided into different engine 
family groups if the Administrator determines that they are expected to 
have significantly different exhaust emission control system 
deterioration characteristics.
    (10) A manufacturer may request the Administrator to include in an 
engine family group, engine families in addition to those grouped under 
the provisions of paragraph (a)(8) of this section. This request must be 
accompanied by information the manufacturer believes supports the 
inclusion of these additional engine families.
    (11) A manufacturer may combine into a single engine family group 
those light-duty vehicle and light-duty truck engine families which 
otherwise meet the requirements of paragraphs (a)(8) through (a)(10) of 
this section.
    (12) The vehicles covered by an application for certification 
equipped with gasoline-fueled and methanol-fueled heavy-duty engines 
will be divided into groupings of vehicles on the basis of physical 
features which are expected to

[[Page 173]]

affect evaporative emissions. Each group of vehicles with similar 
features shall be defined as a separate evaporative emission family.
    (13) For gasoline-fueled or methanol-fueled heavy-duty vehicles to 
be classified in the same evaporative emission family, vehicles must be 
identical with respect to:
    (i) Method of fuel/air metering (i.e., carburetion versus fuel 
injection).
    (ii) Carburetor bowl fuel volume, within a 10 cc range.
    (14) For vehicles equipped with gasoline-fueled and methanol-fueled 
heavy-duty engines to be classified in the same evaporative emission 
control system, vehicles must be identical with respect to:
    (i) Method of vapor storage.
    (ii) Method of carburetor sealing.
    (iii) Method of air cleaner sealing.
    (iv) Vapor storage working capacity, within a 20g range.
    (v) Number of storage devices.
    (vi) Method of purging stored vapors.
    (vii) Method of venting the carburetor during both engine off and 
engine operation.
    (viii) Liquid fuel hose material.
    (ix) Vapor storage material.
    (15) Where vehicles equipped with gasoline-fueled or methanol-fueled 
heavy-duty engines are types which cannot be divided into evaporative 
emission family-control system combinations based on the criteria listed 
above, the Administrator will establish evaporative emission family-
control system combinations for those vehicles based on features most 
related to their evaporative emission characteristics.
    (16) No 1992 or later model year heavy-duty engine which is to be 
used to generate emission credits for 1992 and later banking, trading 
and averaging programs may also utilize nonconformance penalties (NCPs). 
Use of an NCP thus becomes an engine family criterion.
    (i) Use of either a NOX or a particulate matter NCP by an 
engine family precludes that family from generating either 
NOX or particulate matter emission credits.
    (ii) If a manufacturer desires to use both banked credits and NCPs 
on an engine family, two separate engine families must be established. 
One engine family must consist of engines certified for only credit use 
following the procedure specified in this subpart. The other engine 
family must be certified for only NCP use following the procedure as 
specified in 40 CFR part 86, subpart L.
    (b) Emission data--(1) Emission-data vehicles. Paragraph (b)(1) of 
this section applies to light-duty vehicle and light-duty truck 
emission-data vehicles.
    (i) Vehicles will be chosen to be operated and tested for emission 
data based upon engine family groupings. Within each engine family, one 
test vehicle will be selected based on the following criteria: The 
Administrator shall select the vehicle with the heaviest equivalent test 
weight (including options) within the family. Then within that vehicle 
the Administrator shall select, in the order listed, the highest road-
load power, largest displacement, the transmission with the highest 
numerical final gear ratio (including overdrive), the highest numerical 
axle ratio offered in that engine family, and the maximum fuel flow 
calibration.
    (ii) The Administrator shall select one additional test vehicle from 
within each engine family. The vehicle selected shall be the vehicle 
expected to exhibit the highest emissions of those vehicles remaining in 
the engine family. If all vehicles within the engine family are similar 
the Administrator may waive the requirements of this paragraph.
    (iii) Within an engine family and exhaust emission control system, 
the manufacturer may alter any emission-data vehicle (or other vehicles 
such as including current or previous model year emission-data vehicles, 
fuel economy data vehicles, and development vehicles provided they meet 
emission-data vehicles' protocol) to represent more than one selection 
under paragraph (b)(1) (i), (ii), (iv), or (vii) of this section.
    (iv) If the vehicles selected in accordance with paragraphs (b)(1) 
(i) and (ii) of this section do not represent each engine-system 
combination, then one vehicle of each engine-system combination not 
represented will be selected by the Administrator. The vehicle selected 
shall be the vehicle expected to exhibit the highest emissions of those

[[Page 174]]

vehicles remaining in the engine family.
    (v) For high-altitude exhaust emission compliance for each engine 
family, the manufacturer shall follow one of the following procedures:
    (A) The manufacturer will select for testing under high-altitude 
conditions the vehicle expected to exhibit the highest emissions from 
the nonexempt vehicles selected in accordance with paragraphs (b)(1) 
(ii), (iii), and (iv) of this section or,
    (B) In lieu of testing vehicles according to paragraph (b)(1)(v)(A) 
of this section, a manufacturer may provide a statement in its 
application for certification that, based on the manufacturer's 
engineering evaluation of such high-altitude emission testing as the 
manufacturer deems appropriate,
    (1) That all light-duty vehicles not exempt under Sec. 86.090-8(h) 
comply with the emission standards at high altitude; and
    (2) That light-duty trucks sold for principal use at designated 
high-altitude locations comply with the high-altitude emission 
requirements and that all light-duty trucks sold at low altitude, which 
are not exempt under Sec. 86.091-9(g)(2), are capable of being modified 
to meet high-altitude standards.
    (vi) If 90 percent or more of the engine family sales will be in 
California, a manufacturer may substitute emission-data vehicles 
selected by the California Air Resources Board criteria for the 
selections specified in paragraphs (b)(1) (i), (ii), and (iv) of this 
section.
    (vii)(A) Vehicles of each evaporative emission family will be 
divided into evaporative emission control systems.
    (B) The Administrator will select the vehicle expected to exhibit 
the highest evaporative emissions, from within each evaporative family 
to be certified, from among the vehicles represented by the exhaust 
emission-data selections for the engine family, unless evaporative 
testing has already been completed on the vehicle expected to exhibit 
the highest evaporative emissions for the evaporative family as part of 
another engine family's testing.
    (C) If the vehicles selected in accordance with paragraph 
(b)(1)(vii)(B) of this section do not represent each evaporative 
emission control system then the Administrator will select the highest 
expected evaporative emission vehicle from within the unrepresented 
evaporative system.
    (viii) For high-altitude evaporative emission compliance for each 
evaporative emission family, the manufacturer shall follow one of the 
following procedures:
    (A) The manufacturer will select for testing under high-altitude 
conditions the one nonexempt vehicle previously selected under 
paragraphs (b)(1)(vii) (B) or (C) of this section which is expected to 
have the highest level of evaporative emissions when operated at high 
altitude or
    (B) In lieu of testing vehicles according to paragraph 
(b)(1)(viii)(A) of this section, a manufacturer may provide a statement 
in its application for certification that based on the manufacturer's 
engineering evaluation of such high-altitude emission testing as the 
manufacturer deems appropriate,
    (1) That all light-duty vehicles not exempt under Sec. 86.090-8(h) 
comply with the emission standards at high altitude, and
    (2) That light-duty trucks sold for principal use at designated 
high-altitude locations comply with the high-altitude emission 
requirements and that all light-duty trucks sold at low-altitude, which 
are not exempt under Sec. 86.091-9(g)(2), are capable of being modified 
to meet high-altitude standards.
    (ix) Vehicles selected under paragraph (b)(1)(v)(A) of this section 
may be used to satisfy the requirements of (b)(1)(viii)(A) of this 
section.
    (x) Light-duty trucks only: (A) The manufacturer may reconfigure any 
of the low-altitude emission-data vehicles to represent the vehicle 
configuration required to be tested at high altitude.
    (B) The manufacturer is not required to test the reconfigured 
vehicle at low altitude.
    (2) Otto-cycle heavy-duty emission-data engines. Paragraph (b)(2) of 
this section applies to Otto-cycle heavy-duty engines.

    (iii) The Administrator shall select a maximum of two engines within 
each

[[Page 175]]

engine family based upon features indicating that they may have the 
highest emission levels of the engines in the engine family as follows:
    (A) The Administrator shall select one emission-data engine first 
based on the largest displacement within the engine family. Then within 
the largest displacement the Administrator shall select, in the order 
listed, highest fuel flow at the speed of maximum rated torque, the 
engine with the most advanced spark timing, no EGR or lowest EGR flow, 
and no air pump or lowest actual flow air pump.
    (B) The Administrator shall select one additional engine, from 
within each engine family. The engine selected shall be the engine 
expected to exhibit the highest emissions of those engines remaining in 
the engine family. If all engines within the engine family are similar 
the Administrator may waive the requirements of this paragraph.
    (iv) If the engines selected in accordance with paragraph (b)(2) 
(ii) and (iii) of this section do not represent each engine 
displacement-exhaust emission control system combination, then one 
engine of each engine displacement-exhaust emission control system 
combination not represented shall be selected by the Administrator.
    (v) Within an engine family/displacement/control system combination, 
the manufacturer may alter any emission-data engine (or other engine 
including current or previous model year emission-data engines and 
development engines provided they meet the emission-data engines' 
protocol) to represent more than one selection under paragraph 
(b)(2)(iii) of this section.
    (3) Diesel heavy-duty emission-data engines. Paragraph (b)(3) of 
this section applies to diesel heavy-duty emission-data vehicles.
    (i) Engines will be chosen to be run for emission data based upon 
engine family groupings. Within each engine family, the requirements of 
this paragraph must be met.
    (ii) Engines of each engine family will be divided into groups based 
upon their exhaust emission control systems. One engine of each system 
combination shall be run for smoke emission data and gaseous emission 
data. Either the complete gaseous emission test or the complete smoke 
test may be conducted first. Within each combination, the engine that 
features the highest fuel feed per stroke, primarily at the speed of 
maximum rated torque and secondarily at rated speed, will usually be 
selected. If there are military engines with higher fuel rates than 
other engines in the same engine system combinations, then one military 
engine shall also be selected. The engine with the highest fuel feed per 
stroke will usually be selected.
    (iii) The Administrator may select a maximum of one additional 
engine within each engine-system combination based upon features 
indicating that it may have the highest emission levels of the engines 
of that combination. In selecting this engine, the Administrator will 
consider such features as the injection system, fuel system, compression 
ratio, rated speed, rated horsepower, peak torque speed, and peak 
torque.
    (iv) Within an engine family control system combination, the 
manufacturer may alter any emission-data engine (or other engine 
including current or previous model year emission-data engines and 
development engines provided they meet the emission-data engines' 
protocol) to represent more than one selection under paragraph 
(b)(3)(ii) and (iii) of this section.
    (c) Durability data--(1) Light-duty vehicle durability-data 
vehicles. Paragraph (c)(1) of this section applies to light-duty vehicle 
durability-data vehicles.
    (i) A durability-data vehicle will be selected by the Administrator 
to represent each engine-system combination. The vehicle selected shall 
be of the engine displacement with the largest projected sales volume of 
vehicles with that control-system combination in that engine family and 
will be designated by the Administration as to transmission type, fuel 
system, inertia weight class, and test weight.
    (ii) A manufacturer may elect to operate and test additional 
vehicles to represent any engine-system combination. The additional 
vehicles must be of the same engine displacement,

[[Page 176]]

transmission type, fuel system and inertia weight class as the vehicle 
selected for that engine-system combination in accordance with the 
provisions of paragraph (c)(1)(i) of this section. Notice of an intent 
to operate and test additional vehicles shall be given to the 
Administrator no later than 30 days following notification of the test 
fleet selection.
    (2) Light-duty trucks. Paragraph (c)(2) of this section applies to 
vehicles, engines, subsystems, or components used to establish exhaust 
emission deterioration factors for light-duty trucks.
    (i) The manufacturer shall select the vehicles, engines, subsystems, 
or components to be used to determine exhaust emission deterioration 
factors for each engine-family control system combination. Whether 
vehicles, engines, subsystems, or components are used, they shall be 
selected so that their emissions deterioration characteristics may be 
expected to represent those of in-use vehicles, based on good 
engineering judgment.
    (ii) [Reserved]
    (3) Heavy-duty engines. Paragraph (c)(3) of this section applies to 
engines, subsystems, or components used to establish exhaust emission 
deterioration factors for heavy-duty engines.
    (i) The manufacturer shall select the engines, subsystems, or 
components to be used to determine exhaust emission deterioration 
factors for each engine-family control system combination. Whether 
engines, subsystems, or components are used, they shall be selected so 
that their emissions deterioration characteristics may be expected to 
represent those of in-use engines, based on good engineering judgment.
    (ii) [Reserved]
    (d) For purposes of testing under Sec. 86.092-26 (a)(9) or (b)(11), 
the Administrator may require additional emission-data vehicles (or 
emission-data engines) and durability-data vehicles (light-duty vehicles 
only) identical in all material respects to vehicles (or engines) 
selected in accordance with paragraphs (b) and (c) of this section, 
Provided That the number of vehicles (or engines) selected shall not 
increase the size of either the emission-data fleet or the durability-
data fleet by more than 20 percent or one vehicle (or engine), whichever 
is greater.
    (e)(1) [Reserved]
    (2) Any manufacturer may request to certify engine families with 
combined total sales of fewer than 10,000 light-duty vehicles, light-
duty trucks, heavy-duty vehicles, and heavy-duty engines utilizing the 
procedures contained in Sec. 86.092-14 of this subpart for emission-data 
vehicle selection and determination of deterioration factors. The 
deterioration factors shall be applied only to entire engine families.
    (f) In lieu of testing an emission-data or durability-data vehicle 
(or engine) selected under paragraph (b) or (c) of this section, and 
submitting data therefore, a manufacturer may, with the prior written 
approval of the Administrator, submit exhaust emission data and/or fuel 
evaporative emission data, as applicable on a similar vehicle (or 
engine) for which certification has previously been obtained or for 
which all applicable data required under Sec. 86.091-23 has previously 
been submitted.
    (g)(1) This paragraph applies to light-duty vehicles and light-duty 
trucks, but does not apply to the production vehicles selected under 
paragraph (h) of this section.
    (2)(i) Where it is expected that more than 33 percent of a carline, 
within an engine-system combination, may be equipped with an item 
(whether that item is standard equipment or an option), the full 
estimated weight of that item shall be included in the curb weight 
computation of each vehicle available with that item in that carline, 
within that engine-system combination.
    (ii) Where it is expected that 33 percent or less of the carline, 
within an engine-system combination, will be equipped with an item 
(whether that item is standard equipment or an option), no weight for 
that item will be added in computing the curb weight for any vehicle in 
that carline, within that engine-system combination, unless that item is 
standard equipment on the vehicle.
    (iii) In the case of mutually exclusive options, only the weight of 
the heavier option will be added in computing the curb weight.

[[Page 177]]

    (iv) Optional equipment weighing less than three pounds per item 
need not be considered.
    (3)(i) Where it is expected that more than 33 percent of a carline, 
within an engine-system combination, will be equipped with an item 
(whether that item is standard equipment or an option) that can 
reasonably be expected to influence emissions, then such items shall 
actually be installed (unless excluded under paragraph (g)(3)(ii) of 
this section) on all emission-data and durability-data vehicles of that 
carline, within that engine-system combination, on which the items are 
intended to be offered in production. Items that can reasonably be 
expected to influence emissions are: air conditioning, power steering, 
power brakes, and other items determined by the Administrator.
    (ii) If the manufacturer determines by test data or engineering 
evaluation that the actual installation of the optional equipment 
required by paragraph (g)(3)(i) of this section does not affect the 
emissions or fuel economy values, the optional equipment need not be 
installed on the test vehicle.
    (iii) The weight of the options shall be included in the design curb 
weight and also be represented in the weight of the test vehicles.
    (iv) The engineering evaluation, including any test data, used to 
support the deletion of optional equipment from test vehicles, shall be 
maintained by the manufacturer and shall be made available to the 
Administrator upon request.
    (4) Where it is expected that 33 percent or less of a carline within 
an engine-system combination will be equipped with an item (whether that 
item is standard equipment or an option) that can reasonably be expected 
to influence emissions, that item shall not be installed on any 
emission-data vehicle or durability-data vehicle of that carline, within 
that engine-system combination, unless that item is standard equipment 
on that vehicle or specifically required by the Administrator.
    (h) Alternative Durability Program durability-data vehicles. This 
section applies to light-duty vehicle and light-duty truck durability-
data vehicles selected under the Alternative Durability Program 
described in Sec. 86.085-13.
    (1) To update the durability data to be used to determine a 
deterioration factor for each engine family group, the Administrator 
will select durability-data vehicles from the manufacturer's production 
line. Production vehicles will be selected from each model year's 
production for those vehicles certified using the Alternative Durability 
Program procedures.
    (i) The Administrator shall select the production durability-data 
vehicle designs from the designs that the manufacturer offers for sale. 
For each model year and for each engine family group, the Administrator 
may select production durability-data vehicle designs of equal number to 
the number of engine families within the engine family group, up to a 
maximum of three vehicles.
    (ii) The production durability-data vehicles representing the 
designs selected in paragraph (h)(1)(i) of this section will be randomly 
selected from the manufacturer's production. The Administrator will make 
these random selections unless the manufacturer (with prior approval of 
the Administrator) elects to make the random selections.
    (iii) The manufacturer may select additional production durability-
data vehicle designs from within the engine family group. The production 
durability-data vehicles representing these designs shall be randomly 
selected from the manufacturer's production in accordance with paragraph 
(h)(1)(ii) of this section.
    (iv) For each production durability-data vehicle selected under 
paragraph (h)(1) of this section, the manufacturer shall provide to the 
Administrator (before the vehicle is tested or begins service 
accumulation) the vehicle identification number. Before the vehicle 
begins service accumulation the manufacturer shall also provide the 
Administrator with a description of the durability-data vehicle as 
specified by the Administrator.
    (v) In lieu of testing a production durability-data vehicle selected 
under paragraph (h)(1) of this section, and

[[Page 178]]

submitting data therefrom, a manufacturer may, with the prior written 
approval of the Administrator, submit exhaust emission data from a 
production vehicle of the same configuration for which all applicable 
data has previously been submitted.
    (2) If, within an existing engine family group, a manufacturer 
requests to certify vehicles of a new design, engine family, emission 
control system, or with any other durability-related design difference, 
the Administrator will determine if the existing engine family group 
deterioration factor is appropriate for the new design. If the 
Administrator cannot make this determination or deems the deterioration 
factor not appropriate, the Administrator shall select preproduction 
durability-data vehicles under the provisions of paragraph (c) of this 
section. If vehicles are then certified using the new design, the 
Administrator may select production vehicles with the new design under 
the provisions of paragraph (h)(1) of this section.
    (3) If a manufacturer requests to certify vehicles of a new design 
that the Administrator determines are a new engine family group, the 
Administrator shall select preproduction durability-data vehicles under 
the provisions of paragraph (c) of this section. If vehicles are then 
certified using the new design, the Administrator may select production 
vehicles of that design under the provisions of paragraph (h)(1) of this 
section.
[55 FR 7190, Feb. 28, 1990, as amended at 55 FR 30626, July 26, 1990]



Sec. 86.092-26  Mileage and service accumulation; emission measurements.

    (a)(1) Paragraph (a) of this section applies to light-duty vehicles.
    (2) The procedure for mileage accumulation will be the Durability 
Driving Schedule as specified in appendix IV to this part. A modified 
procedure may also be used if approved in advance by the Administrator. 
Except with the advance approval of the Administrator, all vehicles will 
accumulate mileage at a measured curb weight which is within 100 pounds 
of the estimated curb weight. If the loaded vehicle weight is within 100 
pounds of being included in the next higher inertia weight class as 
specified in Sec. 86.129, the manufacturer may elect to conduct the 
respect emission tests at higher loaded vehicle weight.
    (3) Emission-data vehicles. Unless otherwise provided for in 
Sec. 86.091-23(a), emission-data vehicles shall be operated and tested 
as follows:
    (i) Otto-cycle. (A) The manufacturer shall determine, for each 
engine family, the mileage at which the engine-system combination is 
stabilized for emission-data testing. The manufacturer shall maintain, 
and provide to the Administrator if requested, a record of the rationale 
used in making this determination. The manufacturer may elect to 
accumulate 4,000 miles on each test vehicle within an engine family 
without making a determination. The manufacturer must accumulate a 
minimum of 2,000 miles (3,219 kilometers) on each test vehicle within an 
engine family. All test vehicle mileage must be accurately determined, 
recorded, and reported to the Administrator. Any vehicle used to 
represent emission-data vehicle selections under Sec. 86.092-24(b)(1) 
shall be equipped with an engine and emission control system that has 
accumulated the mileage the manufacturer chose to accumulate on the test 
vehicle. Fuel economy data generated from certification vehicles 
selected in accordance with Sec. 86.092-24(b)(1) with engine-system 
combinations that have accumulated more than 10,000 kilometers (6,200 
miles) shall be factored in accordance with Sec. 600.006-87(c). Complete 
exhaust and evaporative (if required) emission tests shall be conducted 
for each emission-data vehicle selection under Sec. 86.092-24(b)(1). The 
Administrator may determine under Sec. 86.092-24(f) that no testing is 
required.
    (B) Emission tests for emission-data vehicle(s) selected for testing 
under Sec. 86.092-24(b)(1)(v) or (viii) shall be conducted at the 
mileage (2,000 mile minimum) at which the engine-system combination is 
stabilized for emission testing under high-altitude conditions.
    (C) Exhaust and evaporative emissions tests for emission-data 
vehicle(s) selected for testing under Sec. 86.092-24(b)(1) (i), (ii), 
(iii), (iv), or (vii)(B) shall be conducted at the mileage (2,000 mile 
minimum) at which the engine-

[[Page 179]]

system combination is stabilized for emission testing under low-altitude 
conditions.
    (D) For each engine family, the manufacturer will either select one 
vehicle previously selected under Sec. 86.092-24(b)(1) (i) through (iv) 
to be tested under high-altitude conditions or provide a statement in 
accordance with Sec. 86.092-24(b)(1)(v). Vehicles shall meet emission 
standards under both low- and high-altitude conditions without manual 
adjustments or modifications. In addition, any emission control device 
used to conform with the emission standards under high-altitude 
conditions shall initially actuate (automatically) no higher than 4,000 
feet above sea level.
    (4)(i) Durability data vehicles. (A) Unless otherwise provided for 
in Sec. 86.091-23(a), each durability-data vehicle shall be driven, with 
all emission control systems installed and operating, for 50,000 miles 
or such lesser distance as the Administrator may agree to as meeting the 
objective of this procedure.
    (B) Complete exhaust emission tests shall be made at test point 
mileage intervals that the manufacturer determines.
    (C) At a minimum, two complete exhaust emission tests shall be made. 
The first test shall be made at a distance not greater than 6,250 miles. 
The last shall be made at 50,000 miles.
    (D) The mileage interval between test points must be of equal length 
except for the interval between zero miles and the first test, and any 
interval before or after testing conducted in conjunction with vehicle 
maintenance as specified in Sec. 86.090-25(g)(2).
    (ii) The manufacturer may, at its option, alter the durability-data 
vehicle at the selected test point to represent emission-data vehicle(s) 
within the same engine-system combination and perform emission tests on 
the altered vehicle. Upon completion of emission testing, the 
manufacturer may return the test vehicle to the durability-data vehicle 
configuration and continue mileage accumulation.
    (5)(i) All tests required by this subpart on emission-data vehicles 
shall be conducted at a mileage equal to or greater than the mileage the 
manufacturer determines under paragraph (a)(3) of this section.
    (ii) All tests required by this subpart on durability-data vehicles 
shall be conducted within 250 miles of each of the test points.
    (6)(i)(A) The manufacturer may conduct multiple tests at any test 
point at which the data are intended to be used in the deterioration 
factor. At each test point where multiple tests are conducted, the test 
results from all valid tests shall be averaged to determine the data 
point to be used in the deterioration factor calculation, except under 
paragraph (a)(6)(i)(B) of this section. The test results from emission 
tests performed before maintenance affecting emissions shall not be 
averaged with test results after the maintenance.
    (B) The manufacturer is not required to average multiple tests if 
the manufacturer conducts no more than three tests at each test point 
and if the number of tests at each test point is equal. All test points 
must be treated the same for all exhaust pollutants.
    (ii) The results of all emission testing shall be supplied to the 
Administrator. The manufacturer shall furnish to the Administrator 
explanation for voiding any test. The Administrator will determine if 
voiding the test was appropriate based upon the explanation given by the 
manufacturer for the voided test. Tests between test points may be 
conducted as required by the Administrator. Data from all tests 
(including voided tests) may be submitted weekly to the Administrator, 
but shall be air posted or delivered to the Administrator within 7 days 
after completion of the test. In addition, all test data shall be 
compiled and provided to the Administrator in accordance with 
Sec. 86.091-23. Where the Administrator conducts a test on a durability-
data vehicle at a prescribed test point, the results of that test will 
be used in the calculation of the deterioration factor.
    (iii) The results of all emission tests shall be rounded, using the 
``Rounding Off Method'' specified in ASTM E 29-67, to the number of 
places to the right of the decimal point indicated by expressing the 
applicable emission standard of this subpart to one additional 
significant figure.

[[Page 180]]

    (7) Whenever a manufacturer intends to operate and test a vehicle 
which may be used for emission or durability data, the manufacturer 
shall retain in its records all information concerning all emissions 
tests and maintenance, including vehicle alterations to represent other 
vehicle selections. For emission-data vehicles, this information shall 
be submitted, including the vehicle description and specification 
information required by the Administrator, to the Administrator 
following the emission-data test. For durability-data vehicles, this 
information shall be submitted following the 5,000-mile test.
    (8) Once a manufacturer submits the information required in 
paragraphs (a)(7) of this section for a durability-data vehicle, the 
manufacturer shall continue to run the vehicle to 50,000 miles, and the 
data from the vehicle will be used in the calculations under 
Sec. 86.091-28. Discontinuation of a durability-data vehicle shall be 
allowed only with the consent of the Administrator.
    (9)(i) The Administrator may elect to operate and test any test 
vehicle during all or any part of the mileage accumulation and testing 
procedure. In such cases, the manufacturer shall provide the vehicle(s) 
to the Administrator with all information necessary to conduct this 
testing.
    (ii) The test procedures in Secs. 86.106 through 86.145 will be 
followed by the Administrator. The Administrator will test the vehicles 
at each test point. Maintenance may be performed by the manufacturer 
under such conditions as the Administrator may prescribe.
    (iii) The data developed by the Administrator for the engine-system 
combination shall be combined with any applicable data supplied by the 
manufacturer on other vehicles of that combination to determine the 
applicable deterioration factors for the combination. In the case of a 
significant discrepancy between data developed by the Administrator and 
that submitted by the manufacturer, the Administrator's data shall be 
used in the determination of deterioration factors.
    (10) Emission testing of any type with respect to any certification 
vehicle other than that specified in this part is not allowed except as 
such testing may be specifically authorized by the Administrator.
    (11) This section does not apply to testing conducted to meet the 
requirements of Sec. 86.091-23(b)(2).
    (b)(1) Paragraph (b) of this section applies to light-duty trucks.
    (2) There are three types of mileage or service accumulation 
applicable to light-duty trucks:
    (i) Mileage or service accumulation on vehicles, engines, 
subsystems, or components selected by the manufacturer under 
Sec. 86.092-24(c)(2)(i). The manufacturer determines the form and extent 
of this mileage or service accumulation, consistent with good 
engineering practice, and describes it in the application for 
certification.
    (ii) Mileage accumulation of the duration selected by the 
manufacturer on emission-data vehicles selected under Sec. 86.092-
24(b)(1). The procedure for mileage accumulation will be the Durability 
Driving Schedule as specified in appendix IV to this part. A modified 
procedure may also be used if approved in advance by the Administrator. 
Except with the advance approval of the Administrator, all vehicles will 
accumulate mileage at a measured curb weight which is within 100 pounds 
of the estimated curb weight. If the loaded vehicle weight is within 100 
pounds of being included in the next higher inertia weight class as 
specified in Sec. 86.129, the manufacturer may elect to conduct the 
respective emission tests at the test weight corresponding to the higher 
loaded vehicle weight.
    (iii) Service or mileage accumulation which may be part of the test 
procedures used by the manufacturer to establish evaporative emission 
deterioration factors.
    (3) Exhaust emission deterioration factors will be determined on the 
basis of the mileage or service accumulation described in paragraph 
(b)(2)(i) of this section and related testing, according to the 
manufacturer's procedures.
    (4) Each emission-data vehicle shall be operated and tested as 
follows:
    (i) Otto-cycle. (A) The manufacturer shall determine, for each 
engine family, the mileage at which the engine-system combination is 
stabilized for emission-data testing. The manufacturer shall maintain, 
and provide to

[[Page 181]]

the Administrator if requested, a record of the rationale used in making 
this determination. The manufacturer may elect to accumulate 4,000 miles 
on each test vehicle within an engine family without making a 
determination. The manufacturer must accumulate a minimum of 2,000 miles 
(3,219 kilometers) on each test vehicle within an engine family. All 
test vehicle mileage must be accurately determined, recorded, and 
reported to the Administrator. Any vehicle used to represent emission-
data vehicle selections under Sec. 86.092-24(b)(1) shall be equipped 
with an engine and emission control system that has accumulated the 
mileage the manufacturer chose to accumulate on the test vehicle. Fuel 
economy data generated from certification vehicles selected in 
accordance with Sec. 86.092-24(b)(1) with engine-system combinations 
that have accumulated more than 10,000 kilometers (6,200 miles) shall be 
factored in accordance with Sec. 600.006-87(c). Complete exhaust 
emission tests shall be conducted for each emission-data vehicle 
selection under Sec. 86.092-24(b)(1). The Administrator may determine 
under Sec. 86.092-24(f) that no testing is required.
    (B) Emission tests for emission-data vehicle(s) selected for testing 
under Sec. 86.092-24 (b)(1)(v) or (b)(1)(viii) shall be conducted at the 
mileage (2,000 mile minimum) at which the engine-system combination is 
stabilized for emission testing or at 6,436 kilometers (4,000 miles) 
under high-altitude conditions.
    (C) Exhaust and evaporative emission tests for emission-data 
vehicle(s) selected for testing under Sec. 86.092-24(b)(1) (ii), (iii), 
(iv)(A), or (vii)(B) shall be conducted at the mileage (2,000 mile 
minimum) at which the engine-system combination is stabilized for 
emission testing or at 6,436 kilometer (4,000 mile) test point under 
low-altitude conditions.
    (D) If the manufacturer recommends adjustments or modifications in 
order to conform to emission standards at high altitude, such 
adjustments or modifications shall be made to the test vehicle selected 
under Sec. 86.092-24(b)(1) (v) and (viii) (in accordance with the 
instructions to be provided to the ultimate purchaser) before being 
tested under high-altitude conditions.
    (ii) Diesel. (A) The manufacturer shall determine, for each engine 
family, the mileage at which the engine-system combination is stabilized 
for emission-data testing. The manufacturer shall maintain, and provide 
to the Administrator if requested, a record of the rationale used in 
making this determination. The manufacturer may elect to accumulate 
4,000 miles on each test vehicle within an engine family without making 
a determination. The manufacturer must accumulate a minimum of 2,000 
miles (3,219 kilometers) on each test vehicle within an engine family. 
All test vehicle mileage must be accurately determined, recorded, and 
reported to the Administrator. Any vehicle used to represent emission-
data vehicle selections under Sec. 86.092-24(b)(1) shall be equipped 
with an engine and emission control system that has accumulated the 
mileage the manufacturer chose to accumulate on the test vehicle. Fuel 
economy data generated from certification vehicles selected in 
accordance with Sec. 86.092-24(b)(1) with engine-system combinations 
that have accumulated more than 10,000 kilometers (6,200 miles) shall be 
factored in accordance with Sec. 600.006-87(c). Complete exhaust 
emission tests shall be conducted for each emission-data vehicle 
selection under Sec. 86.092-24(b)(1). The administrator may determine 
under Sec. 86.092-24(f) that no testing is required.
    (B) Emission tests for emission-data vehicle(s) selected for testing 
under Sec. 86.092-24 (b)(1)(v) shall be conducted at the mileage (2,000 
mile minimum) at which the engine-system combination is stabilized for 
emission testing or at the 6,436 kilometer (4,000 mile) test point under 
high-altitude conditions.
    (C) Exhaust and evaporative emission tests for emission-data 
vehicle(s) selected for testing under Sec. 86.092-24 (b)(1) (ii), (iii), 
and (iv) shall be conducted at the mileage (2,000 mile minimum) at which 
the engine-system combination is stabilized for emission testing or at 
the 6,436 kilometer (4,000 mile) test point under low-altitude 
conditions.
    (D) If the manufacturer recommends adjustments or modifications in 
order to conform to emission standards at high altitude, such 
adjustments or modifications shall be made to the test vehicle selected 
under Sec. 86.092-24(b)(1)

[[Page 182]]

(v) and (viii) (in accordance with the instructions to be provided to 
the ultimate purchaser) before being tested under high-altitude 
conditions.
    (iii) [Reserved]
    (iv) All tests required by this subpart on emission-data vehicles 
shall be conducted at a mileage equal to or greater than the mileage the 
manufacturer determines under paragraph (b)(4) of this section.
    (c)(1) Paragraph (c) of this section applies to heavy-duty engines.
    (2) There are two types of service accumulation applicable to heavy-
duty engines:
    (i) Service accumulation on engines, subsystems, or components 
selected by the manufacturer under Sec. 86.092-24(c)(3)(i). The 
manufacturer determines the form and extent of this service 
accumulation, consistent with good engineering practice, and describes 
it in the application for certification.
    (ii) Dynamometer service accumulation on emission-data engines 
selected under Sec. 86.092-24 (b)(2) or (b)(3). The manufacturer 
determines the engine operating schedule to be used for dynamometer 
service accumulation, consistent with good engineering practice. A 
single engine operating schedule shall be used for all engines in an 
engine family-control system combination. Operating schedules may be 
different for different combinations.
    (3) Exhaust emission deterioration factors will be determined on the 
basis of the service accumulation described in paragraph (b)(2)(i) of 
this section and related testing, according to the manufacturer's 
procedures.
    (4) The manufacturer shall determine, for each engine family, the 
number of hours at which the engine system combination is stabilized (no 
less than 62 hours for catalyst equipped) for emission-data testing. The 
manufacturer shall maintain, and provide to the Administrator if 
requested a record of the rationale used in making this determination. 
The manufacturer may elect to accumulate 125 hours on each test engine 
within an engine family without making a determination. Any engine used 
to represent emission-data engine selections under Sec. 86.092-24(b)(2) 
shall be equipped with an engine system combination that has accumulated 
at least the number of hours determined under this paragraph. Complete 
exhaust emission tests shall be conducted for each emission-data engine 
selection under Sec. 86.092-24(b)(2). Evaporative emission controls need 
not be connected provided normal operating conditions are maintained in 
the engine induction system. The Administrator may determine under 
Sec. 86.092-24(f) that no testing is required.
    (d)(1) Paragraph (d) of this section applies to both light-duty 
trucks and heavy-duty engines.
    (2)(i) The results of all emission testing shall be supplied to the 
Administrator. The manufacturer shall furnish to the Administrator 
explanation for voiding any test. The Administrator will determine if

Sec. 86.093-2  Definitions.

    The definitions of Sec. 86.092-2 continue to apply. The definitions 
listed in this section apply beginning with the 1993 model year.
    Bus means a heavy heavy-duty diesel-powered passenger-carrying 
vehicle with a load capacity of fifteen or more passengers that is 
centrally fueled, and all urban buses. This definition only applies in 
the context of Secs. 86.093-11 and 86.093-35.
    Centrally fueled bus means a bus that is refueled at least 75 
percent of the time at one refueling facility that is owned, operated, 
or controlled by the bus operator.
    Urban bus means a passenger-carrying vehicle powered by a heavy 
heavy-duty diesel engine, or of a type normally powered by a heavy 
heavy-duty diesel engine, with a load capacity of fifteen or more 
passengers and intended primarily for intracity operation, i.e., within 
the confines of a city or greater metropolitan area. Urban bus operation 
is characterized by short rides and frequent stops. To facilitate this 
type of operation, more than one set of quick-operating entrance and 
exit doors would normally be installed. Since fares are usually paid in 
cash or tokens, rather than purchased in advance in the form of tickets, 
urban buses would normally have equipment installed for collection of 
fares. Urban buses are also typically characterized by the absence of 
equipment and facilities for long distance travel, e.g., rest rooms, 
large luggage compartments, and facilities for stowing carry-on luggage. 
The useful life for urban buses is the same as the useful life for other 
heavy heavy-duty diesel engines.

model year new Otto-cycle and diesel-cycle light-duty vehicles, 1994 and 
later model year new Otto-cycle and diesel-cycle light-duty trucks, and 
1994 and later model year new Otto-cycle and diesel-cycle heavy-duty 
engines. In cases where a provision applies only to a certain vehicle 
group based on its model year, vehicle class, motor fuel, engine type, 
or other distinguishing characteristics, the limited applicability is 
cited in the appropriate section or paragraph.
    (b) Optional applicability. A manufacturer may request to certify 
any heavy-duty vehicle of 10,000 pounds Gross Vehicle Weight Rating or 
less in accordance with the light-duty truck

[[Page 197]]

provisions. Heavy-duty engine or vehicle provisions do not apply to such 
a vehicle.
    (c)-(d) [Reserved]
    (e) Small volume manufacturers. Special certification procedures are 
available for any manufacturer whose projected combined U.S. sales of 
light-duty vehicles, light-duty trucks, heavy-duty vehicles, and heavy-
duty engines in its product line (including all vehicles and engines 
imported under the provisions of Secs. 85.1505 and 85.1509 of this 
chapter are fewer than 10,000 units for the model year in which the 
manufacturer seeks certification. To certify its product line under 
these optional procedures, the small-volume manufacturer must first 
obtain the Administrator's approval. The manufacturer must meet the 
eligibility criteria specified in Sec. 86.092-14(b) before the 
Administrator's approval will be granted. The small-volume 
manufacturer's certification procedures are described in Sec. 86.092-14.
    (f) Optional procedures for determining exhaust opacity. (1) The 
provisions of subpart I of this part apply to tests which are performed 
by the Administrator, and optionally, by the manufacturer.
    (2) Measurement procedures, other than that described in subpart I 
of this part, may be used by the manufacturer provided the manufacturer 
satisfies the requirements of Sec. 86.091-23(f).
    (3) When a manufacturer chooses to use an alternative measurement 
procedure it has the responsibility to determine whether the results 
obtained by the procedure will correlate with the results which would be 
obtained from the measurement procedure in subpart I of this part. 
Consequently, the Administrator will not routinely approve or disapprove 
any alternative opacity measurement procedure or any associated 
correlation data which the manufacturer elects to use to satisfy the 
data requirements for subpart I of this part.
    (4) If a confirmatory test(s) is performed and the results indicate 
there is a systematic problem suggesting that the data generated under 
an optional alternative measurement procedure do not adequately 
correlate with data obtained in accordance with the procedures described 
in subpart I of this part, EPA may require that all certificates of 
conformity not already issued be based on data obtained from procedures 
described in subpart I of this part.

tool operator. Bi-directional controls do not create permanent changes 
to engine or component calibrations.
    Data stream information means information (i.e., messages and 
parameters) originated within the vehicle by a module or intelligent 
sensors (i.e., a sensor that contains and is controlled by its own 
module) and transmitted between a network of modules and/or intelligent 
sensors connected in parallel with either one or two communication 
wires. The information is broadcast over the communication wires for use 
by other modules (e.g., chassis, transmission, etc.) to conduct normal 
vehicle operation or for use by diagnostic tools. Data stream 
information does not include engine calibration related information.
    Defeat device means an auxilary emission control device (AECD) that 
reduces the effectiveness of the emission control system under 
conditions which may reasonably be expected to be encountered in normal 
vehicle operation and use, unless:
    (1) Such conditions are substantially included in the Federal 
emission test procedure;
    (2) The need for the AECD is justified in terms of protecting the 
vehicle against damage or accident; or
    (3) The AECD does not go beyond the requirements of engine starting.
    Durability useful life means the highest useful life mileage out of 
the set of

[[Page 198]]

all useful life mileages that apply to a given vehicle. The durability 
useful life determines the duration of service accumulation on a 
durability data vehicle. The determination of durability useful life 
shall reflect any alternative useful life mileages approved by the 
Administrator under Sec. 86.094-21(f). The determination of durability 
useful life shall exclude any standard and related useful life mileage 
for which the manufacturer has obtained a waiver of emission data 
submission requirements under Sec. 86.094-23(c)
    Element of design means any control system (i.e., computer software, 
electronic control system, emission control system, computer logic), 
and/or control system calibrations, and/or the results of systems 
interaction, and/or hardware items on a motor vehicle or motor vehicle 
engine.
    Engine warm-up cycle means sufficient vehicle operation such that 
the coolant temperature has risen by at least 40  deg.F from engine 
starting and reaches a minimum temperature of 160  deg.F.
    Enhanced service and repair information means information which is 
specific for an original equipment manufacturer's brand of tools and 
equipment.
    Equivalent test weight means the weight, within an inertia weight 
class, which is used in the dynamometer testing of a vehicle and which 
is based on its loaded vehicle weight or adjusted loaded vehicle weight 
in accordance with the provisions of subparts A and B of this part.

equipment manufacturer, which provides service or equipment to 
automotive technicians.
    Intermediate Temperature Cold Testing means testing done pursuant to 
the driving cycle and testing conditions contained in 40 CFR part 86, 
subpart C, at temperatures between 25  deg.F (-4  deg.C) and 68  deg.F 
(20  deg.C).
    Light-duty truck 1 means any light light-duty truck up through 3750 
lbs loaded vehicle weight.
    Light-duty truck 2 means any light light-duty truck greater than 
3750 lbs loaded vehicle weight.

stored under pressure and is composed primarily of species that are 
gases at atmospheric conditions (temperature = 25  deg.C and pressure = 
1 atm), excluding natural gas.
    Multi-fuel means capable of operating on two or more different fuel 
types, either separately or simultaneously.
    Natural gas means a fuel whose primary constituent is methane.
    Non-Methane Hydrocarbon Equivalent means the sum of the carbon mass 
emissions of non-oxygenated non-methane hydrocarbons, methanol, 
formaldehyde, or other organic compounds that are separately measured, 
expressed as gasoline-fueled vehicle hydrocarbons. In the case of 
exhaust emissions, the hydrogen-to-carbon ratio of the equivalent 
hydrocarbon is 1.85:1. In the case of diurnal and hot soak emissions, 
the hydrogen-to-carbon ratios of the equivalent hydrocarbons are 2.33:1 
and 2.2:1, respectively.
    Petroleum fuel means liquid fuels normally derived from crude oil, 
excluding liquefied petroleum gas. Gasoline and diesel fuel are 
petroleum fuels.

    (B)(1)(i) Sales percentages for the purposes of determining 
compliance with paragraph (a)(1)(i)(A) of this section shall be based on 
total actual U.S. sales of light-duty vehicles of the applicable model 
year by a manufacturer to a dealer, distributor, fleet operator, broker, 
or any other entity which comprises the point of first sale. If the 
option of paragraph (a)(1)(i)(A)(1)(ii) of this section is taken, such 
sales percentages shall be based on the total actual combined U.S. sales 
of light-duty vehicles and light light-duty trucks of the applicable 
model year by a manufacturer to a dealer, distributor, fleet operator, 
broker, or any other entity which comprises the point of first sale.
    (ii) The manufacturer may petition the Administrator to allow actual 
volume produced for U.S. sale to be used in lieu of actual U.S. sales 
for purposes of determining compliance with the implementation schedule 
sales percentages of tables A94-1 and A94-4 of this section. Such 
petition shall be submitted within 30 days of the end of the model year 
to the Manufacturers Operations Division. For the petition to be 
granted, the manufacturer must establish to the satisfaction of the 
Administrator that actual production volume is functionally equivalent 
to actual sales volume.
    (iii) The manufacturer may count toward the sales percentages light-
duty vehicles of the applicable model year that meet certain standards 
for that same model year contained in Title 13, California Code of 
Regulations, Section 1960.1, and the incorporated ``California Exhaust 
Emission Standards and Test Procedures for 1988 and Subsequent Model 
Passenger Cars, Light-Duty Trucks, and Medium-Duty Vehicles.'' (Copies 
may be obtained from Barclays Law Publishers, P.O. Box 3066, San 
Francisco, CA 94080.) The relevant standards from that source are those 
that are designated as phase-in standards for selected pollutants and 
were first applied in the 1993 model year, as well as those for all 
remaining pollutants that require compliance at the one hundred percent 
level. If this option is taken, all light-duty vehicles sold in 
jurisdictions adopting such standards shall be counted toward the total 
upon which the sales percentage is based. If this option is not taken, 
light-duty vehicles sold in such jurisdictions are to be excluded from 
counting toward either the total upon which the sales percentage is 
based or the sales percentage itself.
    (iv) Small volume manufacturers, as defined in Sec. 86.092-14 (b)(1) 
and (2), are exempt from the implementation schedules of tables A94-1 
and A94-4 of this section for model years 1994 and 1995. For small 
volume manufacturers, Tier 0 standards of tables A94-2 and A94-5 
continue to apply until model year 1996 when one hundred percent 
compliance with the Tier 1 standards of tables A94-2, A94-3, A94-5, and 
A94-6 is required. This exemption does not apply to small volume engine 
families as defined in Sec. 86.092-14 (b)(5).
    (2)(i) Where the required implementation schedule sales percentages 
for in-use purposes, as prescribed in subpart H of this part, are the 
same in a given model year as the required implementation schedule sales 
percentages for certification purposes, as prescribed in this section, 
the same engine families must comprise the respective percentages.
    (ii) Where the required implementation schedule sales percentages 
for in-use purposes differ from implementation schedule sales 
percentages for certification purposes in a particular model year, the 
manufacturer must designate, at the time of Application for 
Certification, which families will meet each applicable in-use phase-in 
percentage.
    (3) The manufacturer must state at the time of Application for 
Certification, based on projected U.S. sales or projected production for 
U.S. sale, which families will be used to attain the required 
implementation schedule sales percentages for certification purposes.
    (4) A manufacturer can not use one set of engine families to meet 
its intermediate useful life standards and another to meet its full 
useful life standards. The same families which are used to meet the 
intermediate useful life standards will be required without deviation to 
meet the corresponding full useful life standards.
    (ii) A manufacturer may elect to include all or some of its diesel-
cycle

[[Page 204]]

light-duty vehicle engine families subject to the Tier 0 standards in 
the appropriate particulate averaging program (petroleum or methanol), 
provided that vehicles produced for sale in California or in designated 
high-altitude areas may be averaged only within each of these areas. 
Averaging is not permitted between fuel types. If the manufacturer 
elects to average light-duty vehicles and light-duty trucks together in 
the appropriate particulate averaging program, its composite particulate 
standard applies to the combined set of light-duty vehicles and light-
duty trucks included in the average and is calculated as defined in 
Sec. 86.090-2.
    (2) The standards set forth in paragraph (a)(1)(i) of this section 
refer to the exhaust emitted over a driving schedule as set forth in 
subpart B of this part and measured and calculated in accordance with 
those procedures. The test weight basis for light-duty vehicles, for the 
purposes of determining equivalent test weight as prescribed in 
Sec. 86.129-94, shall be loaded vehicle weight.
    (b) Fuel evaporative emissions from 1994 and later model year light-
duty vehicles shall not exceed (compliance with these standards is 
optional for 1994 model year methanol-fueled engines):
    (1) Hydrocarbons (for gasoline-fueled vehicles). 2.0 grams per test.
    (2) Total Hydrocarbon Equivalent (for methanol-fueled vehicles). 2.0 
grams carbon per test.
    (3) The standards set forth in paragraphs (b) (1) and (2) of this 
section refers to a composite sample of the fuel evaporative emissions 
collected under the conditions set forth in subpart B of this part and 
measured in accordance with those procedures.
    (c) No crankcase emissions shall be discharged into the ambient 
atmosphere from any 1994 and later model year Otto-cycle, or methanol-or 
gaseous-fueled diesel light-duty vehicle. This requirement is optional 
for 1994 through 1996 model year gaseous-fueled light-duty vehicles.
    (d)-(f) [Reserved]. For guidance see Sec. 86.090-8.
    (g) Any 1994 and later model year light-duty vehicle that a 
manufacturer wishes to certify for sale shall meet the emission 
standards under both low- and high-altitude conditions as specified in 
Sec. 86.082-2, except as provided in paragraphs (h) and (i) of this 
section. Vehicles shall meet emission standards under both low- and 
high-altitude conditions without manual adjustments or modifications. 
Any emission control device used to meet emission standards under high-
altitude conditions shall initially actuate (automatically) no higher 
than 4,000 feet above sea level.
    (h) The manufacturer may exempt 1994 and later model year vehicles 
from compliance at high altitude with the emission standards set forth 
in paragraphs (a) and (b) of this section if the vehicles are not 
intended for sale at high altitude and if the requirements of paragraphs 
(h) (1) and (2) of this section are met.
    (1) A vehicle configuration shall only be considered eligible for 
exemption under paragraph (h) of this section if the requirements of 
either paragraph (h)(1) (i), (ii), (iii), or (iv) of this section are 
met.
    (i) Its design parameters (displacement-to-weight ratio (D/W) and 
engine speed-to-vehicle-speed ratio (N/V)) fall within the exempted 
range for that manufacturer for that year. The exempted range is 
determined according to the following procedure:
    (A) The manufacturer shall graphically display the D/W and N/V data 
of all vehicle configurations it will offer for the model year in 
question. The axis of the abscissa shall be D/W (where (D) is the engine 
displacement expressed in cubic centimeters and (W) is the equivalent 
vehicle test weight expressed in pounds), and the axis of the ordinate 
shall be N/V (where (N) is the crankshaft speed expressed in revolutions 
per minute and (V) is the vehicle speed expressed in miles per hour). At 
the manufacturer's option, either the 1:1 transmission gear ratio or the 
lowest numerical gear ratio available in the transmission will be used 
to determine N/V. The gear selection must be the same for all N/V data 
points on the manufacturer's graph. For each transmission/axle ratio 
combination, only the lowest N/V value shall be used in the graphical 
display.

[[Page 205]]

    (B) The product line is then defined by the equation, N/V = C(D/W) 
-0.9, where the constant, C, is determined by the requirement 
that all the vehicle data points either fall on the line or lie to the 
upper right of the line as displayed on the graphs.
    (C) The exemption line is then defined by the equation, N/V = C(0.84 
D/W) -0.9, where the constant, C, is the same as that found 
in paragraph (h)(1)(i)(B) of this section.
    (D) The exempted range includes all values of N/V and D/W which 
simultaneously fall to the lower left of the exemption line as drawn on 
the graph.
    (ii) Its design parameters fall within the alternate exempted range 
for that manufacturer that year. The alternate exempted range is 
determined by substituting rated horsepower (hp) for displacement (D) in 
the exemption procedure described in paragraph (h)(1)(i) of this section 
and by using the product line N/V = C(hp/W) -0.9.
    (A) Rated horsepower shall be determined by using the Society of 
Automotive Engineers Test Procedure J 1349, June 1990, Engine Power Test 
Code--Spark Ignition and Compression Ignition--Net Power Rating. This 
incorporation by reference was approved by the Director of the Federal 
Register in accordance with 5 U.S.C. 552(a) and 1 CFR part 51. Copies 
may be obtained from SAE International, 400 Commonwealth Drive, 
Warrendale, PA, 15096-0001. Copies may be inspected at U.S. EPA, OAR, 
401 M Street, SW., Washington, DC, 20460, or at the Office of the 
Federal Register, 800 North Capitol Street, NW., suite 700, Washington, 
DC. Any of the horsepower determinants within that test procedure may be 
used, as long as it is used consistently throughout the manufacturer's 
product line in any model year.
    (B) No exemptions will be allowed under paragraph (h)(1)(ii) of this 
section to any manufacturer that has exempted vehicle configurations as 
set forth in paragraph (h)(1)(i) of this section.
    (iii) Its acceleration time (the time it takes a vehicle to 
accelerate from 0 miles per hour to a speed not less than 40 miles per 
hour and not greater than 50 miles per hour) under high-altitude 
conditions is greater than the largest acceleration time under low-
altitude conditions for that manufacturer for that year. The procedure 
to be followed in making this determination is:
    (A) The manufacturer shall list the vehicle configuration and 
acceleration time under low-altitude conditions of that vehicle 
configuration which has the highest acceleration time under low-altitude 
conditions of all the vehicle configurations it will offer for the model 
year in question. The manufacturer shall also submit a description of 
the methodology used to make this determination.
    (B) The manufacturer shall then list the vehicle configurations and 
acceleration times under high-altitude conditions of all those vehicle 
configurations which have higher acceleration times under high-altitude 
conditions than the highest acceleration time at low altitude identified 
in paragraph (h)(1)(iii)(A) of this section.
    (iv) In lieu of performing the test procedure of paragraphs 
(h)(1)(iii) (A) and (B) of this section, its acceleration time can be 
estimated based on the manufacturer's engineering evaluation, in 
accordance with good engineering practice, to meet the exemption 
criteria of paragraph (h)(1)(iii) of this section.
    (2) A vehicle shall only be considered eligible for exemption under 
this paragraph (h) if at least one configuration of its model type (and 
transmission configuration in the case of vehicles equipped with manual 
transmissions, excluding differences due to the presence of overdrive) 
is certified to meet emission standards under high-altitude conditions 
as specified in paragraphs (a) through (c) and (g) of this section. The 
Certificate of Conformity (the Certificate) covering any exempted 
configuration(s) will also apply to the corresponding non-exempt 
configuration(s) required under this paragraph (h)(2). As a condition to 
the exemption, any suspension, revocation, voiding, or withdrawal of the 
Certificate as it applies to a non-exempt configuration for any reason 
will result in a suspension of the Certificate as it applies to the 
corresponding exempted configuration(s) of that model type, unless there 
is at least one other corresponding non-exempt configuration of the same

[[Page 206]]

model type still covered by the Certificate. The suspension of the 
Certificate as it applies to the exempted configuration(s) will be 
terminated when any one of the following occurs:
    (i) Another corresponding non-exempt configuration(s) receive(s) 
coverage under the Certificate; or
    (ii) Suspension of the Certificate as it applies to the 
corresponding non-exempt configuration(s) is terminated; or
    (iii) The Agency's action(s), with respect to suspension, 
revocation, voiding, or withdrawal of the Certificate as it applies to 
the corresponding non-exempt configuration(s), is reversed.
    (3) The sale of a vehicle for principal use at a designated high-
altitude location that has been exempted as set forth in paragraph (h) 
of this section will be considered a violation of section 203(a)(1) of 
the Clean Air Act.
    (i)(1) The manufacturers may exempt 1994 and later model year 
vehicles from compliance at low altitude with the emission standards set 
forth in paragraph (a) of this section and Sec. 86.090-8 (b) if the 
vehicles:
    (i) Are not intended for sale at low altitude; and
    (ii) Are equipped with a unique, high-altitude axle ratio (rear-
wheel drive vehicles) or a unique, high-altitude drivetrain (front-wheel 
drive vehicles) with a higher N/V ratio than other configurations of 
that model type which are certified in compliance with the emission 
standards of paragraph (a) of this section and Sec. 86.090-8 (b) under 
low-altitude conditions.
    (2) The sale of a vehicle for principal use at low altitude that has 
been exempted as set forth in paragraph (i)(1) of this section will be 
considered a violation of section 203(a)(1) of the Clean Air Act.
    (j) Any exempted light-duty vehicle that a manufacturer wishes to 
certify for sale under the provisions of Sec. 86.090-8 (h) or paragraph 
(i) of this section is subject to the provisions of subpart Q of this 
part.
    (k) Cold Temperature Carbon Monoxide (CO) Standards. (1) For 
gasoline-fueled light-duty vehicles, a minimum of the percentage shown 
in table A94-16 of a manufacturer's sales of the applicable model year's 
light-duty vehicles shall not exceed the applicable cold temperature CO 
standard of 10.0 grams per mile for an intermediate useful life of 
50,000 miles, as measured and calculated under the provisions set forth 
in subpart C of this part. This standard applies under both low and high 
altitude conditions. At the manufacturer's option, the manufacturer may 
combine the sales of gasoline-fueled light-duty vehicles and gasoline-
fueled light-duty trucks in determining compliance with the required 
1994 and 1995 model year phase-in percentages as included in table A94-
16.
    (2)(i) Sales percentages for the purposes of determining compliance 
with paragraph (k)(1) of this section shall be based on total actual 
and, at the manufacturer's option, combined U.S. sales of light-duty 
vehicles, light light-duty trucks, and heavy light-duty trucks of the 
applicable model year by a manufacturer to a dealer, distributor, fleet 
operator, broker, or any other entity which comprises the point of first 
sale.
    (ii) The manufacturer may petition the Administrator to allow actual 
volume produced for U.S. sales to be used in lieu of actual U.S. sales 
for purposes of determining compliance with the implementation schedule 
sales percentages of table A94-16. Such petition shall be submitted 
within 30 days of the end of the model year the Manufacturers Operations 
Division. For the petition to be granted, the manufacturer must 
establish to the satisfaction of the Administrator that actual 
production volume is functionally equivalent to actual sales volume.
    (iii) The manufacturer may count towards the sales percentages those 
light-duty vehicles, light light-duty trucks, and heavy light-duty 
trucks of the applicable model year sold in the state of California or 
in jurisdictions which have adopted the California emission standards 
under section 177 of the Clean Air Act if those light-duty vehicles, 
light light-duty trucks, and heavy light-duty trucks certified have been 
to meet the federally mandated cold CO standards. If this option is 
taken, all light-duty vehicles, light light-duty trucks, and heavy 
light-duty trucks sold in California and such jurisdictions shall be 
counted toward the total upon which the sales percentage is based. If 
this option is not taken,

[[Page 207]]

light-duty vehicles, light light-duty trucks, and heavy light-duty 
trucks sold in California or such jurisdictions are to be excluded from 
counting toward either the total upon which the sales percentage is 
based or the sales percentage itself.
    (iv) Small volume manufacturers, as defined in Sec. 86.092-14(b) (1) 
and (2), are exempt from the implementation schedules of table A94-16 
for model years 1994 and 1995. This exemption does not apply to small 
volume engine families as defined in Sec. 86.092-14(b)(5).
    (v) The manufacturer must state at the time of applying for the 
Certificate, based on projected U.S. sales or projected production for 
U.S. sale, which engine families will be used to attain the required 
implementation schedule sales percentages.

Sec. 86.094-9  Emission standards for 1994 and later model year light-duty trucks.

    (a)(1) Standards--(i) Light light-duty trucks. Exhaust emission from 
1994 and later model year light light-duty trucks shall meet all 
standards in Tables A94-8, A94-9, A94-11 and A94-12 in the rows 
designated with the applicable fuel type and loaded vehicle weight, 
according to the implementation schedule in Tables A94-7 and A94-10 as 
follows (optional for 1994 through 1996 model year gaseous-fueled light 
light-duty trucks):
    (A)(1)(i) A minimum of the percentage shown in table A94-7 of a 
manufacturer's sales of the applicable model year's light light-duty

\1\ Applicable only to diesel-cycle vehicles.

    (B)(1)(i) Sales percentages for the purposes of determining 
compliance with paragraph (a)(1)(i)(A) of this section shall be based on 
total actual U.S. sales of light light-duty trucks of the applicable 
model year by a manufacturer to a dealer, distributor, fleet operator, 
broker, or any other entity which comprises the point of first sale. If 
the option of paragraph (a)(1)(i)(A)(1)(ii) of this section is taken, 
such sales percentages shall be based on the total actual combined U.S. 
sales of light-duty vehicles and light light-duty trucks of the 
applicable model year by a manufacturer to a dealer, distributor, fleet 
operator, broker, or any other entity which comprises the point of first 
sale.
    (ii) The manufacturer may petition the Administrator to allow actual 
volume produced for U.S. sales to be used in lieu of actual U.S. sales 
for purposes of determining compliance with the implementation schedule 
sales percentages of tables A94-7 and A94-10 of this section. Such 
petition shall be submitted within 30 days of the end of the model year 
to the Manufacturers Operations Division. For the petition to be 
granted, the manufacturer must establish to the satisfaction of the 
Administrator that actual production volume is functionally equivalent 
to actual sales volume.
    (iii) The manufacturer may count toward the sales percentages light 
light-duty trucks of the applicable model year that meet certain 
standards for that same model year contained in Title 13, ``California 
Code of Regulations, Section 1960.1, and the incorporated California 
Exhaust Emission Standards and Test Procedures for 1988 and Subsequent 
Model Passenger Cars, Light-Duty Trucks, and Medium-Duty Vehicles.'' 
(Copies may be obtained from Barclays Law Publishers, P.O.

Box 3066, San Francisco, CA 94080.) The relevant standards from that 
source are those that are designated as phase-in standards for selected 
pollutants and were first applied in the 1993 model year, as well as 
those for all remaining pollutants that require compliance at the one 
hundred percent level. If this option is taken, all light light-duty 
trucks sold in jurisdictions adopting such standards shall be counted 
toward the total upon which the sales percentage is based. If this 
option is not taken, light light-duty trucks sold in such jurisdictions 
are to be excluded from counting toward either the total upon which the 
sales percentage is based or the sales percentage itself.
    (iv) Small volume manufacturers, as defined in Sec. 86.092-14(b) (1) 
and (2), are exempt from the implementation schedules of table A94-7 of 
this section for model years 1994 and 1995 and from the implementation 
schedules of table A94-10 of this section for model years 1995 and 1996. 
For small volume manufacturers, the Tier 0 standards of table A94-9 
continue to apply until model year 1996, and the Tier 0 standards of 
table A94-12 continue to apply until model year 1997, when one hundred 
percent compliance with the Tier 1 standards of tables A94-8, A94-9, 
A94-11, and A94-12 is required. This exemption does not apply to small 
volume engine families as defined in Sec. 86.092-14(b)(5).
    (2)(i)Where the required implementation schedule sales percentages 
for in-use purposes, as prescribed in subpart H of this part, are the 
same in a given model year as the required implementation schedule sales 
percentages for certification purposes, as prescribed in this section, 
the same engine families must comprise the respective percentages.
    (ii) Where the required implementation schedule sales percentages 
for in-use purposes differ from implementation schedule sales 
percentages for certification purposes in a particular model year, the 
manufacturer must designate, at the time of Application for 
Certification, which families will meet each applicable in-use phase-in 
percentage.
    (3) The manufacturer must state at the time of Application for 
Certification, based on projected U.S. sales or projected production for 
U.S. sale, which families will be used to attain the required 
implementation schedule sales percentages for certification purposes.
    (4) A manufacturer can not use one set of engine families to meet 
its intermediate useful life standards and another to meet its full 
useful life standards. The same families which are used to meet the 
intermediate useful life standards will be required without deviation to 
meet the corresponding full useful life standards.
    (ii) Heavy light-duty trucks. Exhaust emissions from 1994 and later 
model year heavy light-duty trucks shall meet all standards in Tables 
A94-14 and A94-15 in the rows designated with the applicable fuel type 
and loaded vehicle weight or adjusted loaded vehicle weight, as 
applicable, according to the implementation schedule in Table A94-13, as 
follows (optional for 1994 through 1996 model year gaseous-fueled heavy 
light-duty trucks):
    (A) A minimum of the percentage shown in table A94-13 of a 
manufacturer's sales of the applicable model year's heavy light-duty 
trucks shall not exceed the applicable Tier 1 standards in table A94-14 
and shall not exceed the applicable Tier 1 standards in table A94-15. 
The remaining vehicles shall not exceed the applicable Tier 0 standards 
in table A94-15.

    (B)(1)(i) Sales percentages for the purposes of determining 
compliance with paragraph (a)(1)(ii)(A) of this section shall be based 
on total actual U.S. sales of heavy light-duty trucks of the applicable 
model year by a manufacturer to a dealer, distributor, fleet operator, 
broker, or any other entity which comprises the point of first sale.
    (ii) The manufacturer may petition the Administrator to allow actual 
volume produced for U.S. sale to be used in lieu of actual U.S. sales 
for purposes of determining compliance with the implementation schedule 
sales percentages of table A94-13 of this section. Such petition shall 
be submitted within 30 days of the end of the model year to the 
Manufacturers Operations Division. For the petition to be granted, the 
manufacturer must establish to the satisfaction of the Administrator 
that actual production volume is functionally equivalent to actual sales 
volume.
    (iii) The manufacturer may count toward the sales percentages heavy 
light-

[[Page 212]]

duty trucks of the applicable model year that meet certain standards for 
that same model year contained in Title 13, California Code of 
Regulations, Section 1960.1, and the incorporated ``California Exhaust 
Emission Standards and Test Procedures for 1988 and Subsequent Model 
Passenger Cars, Light-Duty Trucks, and Medium-Duty Vehicles.'' The 
relevant standards from that source are those that are designated as 
phase-in standards for selected pollutants and were first applied in the 
1995 model year, as well as those for all remaining pollutants that 
require compliance at the one hundred percent level. If this option is 
taken, all heavy light-duty trucks sold in jurisdictions adopting such 
standards shall be counted toward the total upon which the sales 
percentage is based. If this option is not taken, heavy light-duty 
trucks sold in such jurisdictions are to be excluded from counting 
toward either the total upon which the sales percentage is based or the 
sales percentage itself.
    (iv) Small volume manufacturers, as defined in Sec. 86.092-14(b) (1) 
and (2), are exempt from the implementation schedule of table A94-13 of 
this section for model year 1996. For small volume manufacturers, the 
Tier 0 standards of table A94-15 continue to apply until model year 
1997, when one hundred percent compliance with the Tier 1 standards of 
tables A94-14 and A94-15 is required. This exemption does not apply to 
small volume engine families as defined in Sec. 86.092-14(b)(5).
    (2)(i) Where the required implementation schedule sales percentages 
for in-use purposes, as prescribed in subpart H of this part, are the 
same in a given model year as the required implementation schedule sales 
percentages for certification purposes, as prescribed in this section, 
the same engine families must comprise the respective percentages.
    (ii) Where the required implementation schedule sales percentages 
for in-use purposes differ from implementation schedule sales 
percentages for certification purposes in a particular model year, the 
manufacturer must designate, at the time of Application for 
Certification, which families will meet each applicable in-use phase-in 
percentage.
    (3) The manufacturer must state at the time of Application for 
Certification, based on projected U.S. sales or projected production for 
U.S. sale, which families will be used to attain the required 
implementation schedule sales percentages for certification purposes.
    (4) A manufacturer cannot use one set of engine families to meet its 
intermediate useful life standards and another to meet its full useful 
life standards. The same families which are used to meet the 
intermediate useful life standards will be required without deviation to 
meet the corresponding full useful life standards.
    (iii) Exhaust emissions of carbon monoxide from 1994 and later model 
year light-duty trucks shall not exceed 0.50 percent of exhaust gas flow 
at curb idle at a useful life of 11 years or 120,000 miles, whichever 
first occurs (for Otto-cycle, and methanol-and gaseous-fueled diesel 
light-duty trucks only--optional for 1994 through 1996 model year 
gaseous-fueled light-duty trucks).
    (iv)(A) A manufacturer may elect to include all or some of its 
light-duty truck engine families subject to the Tier 0 standards in the 
NOX averaging program, provided that it does not elect to pay 
an NCP for noncompliance with any emission standard applicable to that 
light-duty truck family. Trucks produced for sale in California or in 
designated high-altitude areas may be averaged only within each of those 
areas. Petroleum-fueled and methanol-fueled engine families may not be 
averaged together. Otto-cycle and diesel engines families also may not 
be averaged together. If the manufacturer elects to participate in the 
NOX averaging program, individual family NOX 
emission limits may not exceed 2.3 grams per mile. If the manufacturer 
elects to average together NOX emissions of light-duty trucks 
subject to different standards based on GVWR and loaded vehicle weight, 
its composite NOX standard applies to the combined fleets of 
light-duty trucks of all weight categories included in the average, and 
is calculated as defined in Sec. 86.088-2.

[[Page 213]]

    (B) A manufacturer may elect to include any diesel light-duty truck 
engine families subject to the Tier 0 standards in the appropriate 
particulate averaging program (petroleum or methanol), provided that it 
does not elect to pay an NCP for noncompliance with any emission 
standard applicable to that light-duty truck family. Trucks produced for 
sale in California or in designated high-altitude areas may be averaged 
only within each of those areas, and light-duty trucks greater than 
3,750 lbs loaded vehicle weight may be averaged only with other light-
duty trucks greater than 3,750 lbs loaded vehicle weight. Averaging is 
not permitted between fuel types. If the manufacturer elects to average 
both light-duty trucks 3,750 lbs loaded vehicle weight or less and 
light-duty vehicles together in the appropriate particulate averaging 
program, its composite particulate standard applies to the combined set 
of light-duty vehicles and light-duty trucks included in the average and 
is calculated as defined in Sec. 86.088-2.
    (2) The standards set forth in paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) 
of this section refer to the exhaust emitted over a driving schedule as 
set forth in subpart B of this part and measured and calculated in 
accordance with those procedures. The test weight basis for light light-
duty trucks, and for heavy light-duty trucks certified to the Tier 0 
standards of this section, for the purposes of determining equivalent 
test weight as prescribed in Sec. 86.129-94, shall be loaded vehicle 
weight. The test weight basis for heavy light-duty trucks certified to 
the Tier 1 standards of this section, for the purposes of determining 
equivalent test weight as prescribed in Sec. 86.129-94, shall be 
adjusted loaded vehicle weight. The standard set forth in paragraph 
(a)(1)(iii) of this section refers to the exhaust emitted at curb idle 
and measured and calculated in accordance with the procedures set forth 
in subpart P of this part.
    (b) Fuel evaporative emissions from 1994 and later model year light-
duty trucks shall not exceed:
    (1) Hydrocarbons (for gasoline-fueled light-duty trucks). 2.0 grams 
per test.
    (2) Total Hydrocarbon Equivalent (for methanol-fueled light-duty 
trucks). 2.0 grams per test.
    (3) The standards set forth in paragraphs (b) (1) and (2) of this 
section refer to a composite sample of the fuel evaporative emissions 
collected under the conditions set forth in subpart B of this part and 
measured in accordance with those procedures.
    (c) No crankcase emissions shall be discharged into the ambient 
atmosphere from any 1994 and later model year light-duty truck. This 
requirement is optional for 1994 through 1996 model year gaseous-fueled 
light-duty trucks.
    (d) The CO, NOX, and particulate standards set forth in 
paragraphs (d)(1)(ii)(A), (d)(1)(iii), and (d)(1)(iv) of this section, 
respectively, are applicable only to model year 1994 light-duty trucks 
certified to the Tier 0 standards of paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) 
of this section. The HC, THCE, and idle CO standards set forth in 
paragraphs (d)(1)(i)(A), (d)(1)(i)(B) and (d)(1)(ii)(B) of this section, 
respectively, are applicable only to model year 1994 light-duty trucks.
    (1) Model year 1994 light-duty trucks sold for principal use at a 
designated high-altitude location shall be capable of meeting the 
following exhaust emission standards when tested under high-altitude 
conditions:
    (i)(A) Hydrocarbons (for Otto-cycle and diesel light-duty trucks 
when fueled with petroleum fuel and/or liquefied petroleum gas). 1.0 
grams per vehicle mile (0.62 grams per vehicle kilometer).
    (B) Total Hydrocarbon Equivalent (for methanol-fueled Otto-cycle and 
diesel light-duty trucks). 1.0 gram per vehicle mile (0.62 gram per 
vehicle kilometer).
    (C) Nonmethane hydrocarbons (for Otto-cycle and diesel light-duty 
trucks when fueled with natural gas). 0.83 gram per vehicle mile (0.52 
gram per vehicle kilometer).
    (ii) Carbon Monoxide. (A) 14 grams per vehicle mile (8.7 grams per 
vehicle kilometer).
    (B) 0.50 percent of exhaust gas flow at curb idle (for Otto-cycle 
and methanol-fueled diesel light-duty trucks only).
    (iii) Oxides of Nitrogen. (A) For light-duty trucks up to and 
including 3,750 lbs. loaded vehicle weight, 1.2 grams

[[Page 214]]

per vehicle mile (0.75 grams per vehicle kilometer).
    (B) For light-duty trucks 3,751 lbs. and greater loaded vehicle 
weight, 1.7 grams per vehicle mile (1.1 grams per vehicle kilometer).
    (iv) Particulate (for diesel light-duty trucks only). (A) For light-
duty trucks up to and including 3,750 lbs. loaded vehicle weight, 0.26 
gram per vehicle mile (0.16 gram per vehicle kilometer).
    (B) For light-duty trucks 3,751 lbs. and greater loaded vehicle 
weight, 0.13 gram per vehicle mile (0.08 gram per vehicle kilometer).
    (2) The standards set forth in paragraphs (d)(1)(i), (d)(1)(ii)(A), 
(d)(1)(iii), and (d)(1)(iv) of this section refer to the exhaust emitted 
over a driving schedule as set forth in subpart B of this part and 
measured and calculated in accordance with those procedures. The 
standard set forth in paragraph (d)(1)(ii)(B) of this section refers to 
the exhaust emitted at curb idle and measured and calculated in 
accordance with the procedures set forth in subpart P of this part.
    (e) Fuel evaporative emissions from 1994 model year light-duty 
trucks sold for principal use at a designated high-altitude location, 
when tested under high-altitude conditions, shall not exceed:
    (1) Hydrocarbons (for gasoline-fueled light-duty trucks). 2.6 grams 
per test.
    (2) Total Hydrocarbon Equivalent (for methanol-fueled light-duty 
trucks). 2.6 grams per test.
    (3) The standards set forth in paragraphs (e) (1) and (2) of this 
section refer to a composite sample of the fuel evaporative emissions 
collected under the conditions set forth in subpart B of this part and 
measured in accordance with those procedures.
    (f) No crankcase emissions shall be discharged into the ambient 
atmosphere from any 1994 model year light-duty trucks sold for principal 
use at a designated high-altitude location.
    (g)(1) Any model year 1994 light-duty truck that a manufacturer 
wishes to certify for sale at low altitude must be capable of meeting 
high-altitude emission standards (specified in paragraphs (d) through 
(f) of this section). The manufacturer may specify vehicle adjustments 
or modifications to allow the vehicle to meet high-altitude standards 
but these adjustments or modifications may not alter the vehicle's basic 
engine, inertia weight class, transmission configuration, and axle 
ratio.
    (i) A manufacturer may certify unique configurations to meet the 
high-altitude standards but is not required to certify these vehicle 
configurations to meet the low-altitude standards.
    (ii) Any adjustments or modifications that are recommended to be 
performed on vehicles to satisfy the requirements of paragraph (g)(1) of 
this section:
    (A) Shall be capable of being effectively performed by commercial 
repair facilities, and
    (B) Must be included in the manufacturer's application for 
certification.
    (2) Any model year 1995 and later light-duty truck and optionally 
model year 1994 light-duty truck that a manufacturer wishes to certify 
for sale shall meet the emission standards of paragraphs (a) through (c) 
of this section under both low- and high-altitude conditions as 
specified in Sec. 86.082-2, except as provided in paragraphs (h) and (i) 
of this section. Vehicles shall meet emission standards under both low- 
and high-altitude conditions without manual adjustments or 
modifications. Any emission control device used to meet emission 
standards under high-altitude conditions shall initially actuate 
(automatically) no higher than 4,000 feet above sea level.
    (h) The manufacturer may exempt 1994 and later model year light-duty 
trucks from compliance at high altitude with the emission standards set 
forth in paragraphs (a) and (b) of this section, and may exempt 1994 
model year light-duty trucks from compliance with the high-altitude 
emission standards set forth in paragraphs (d) and (e) of this section, 
if the vehicles are not intended for sale at high altitude and if the 
requirements of paragraphs (h)(1) and (2) of this section are met.
    (1) A vehicle configuration shall only be considered eligible for 
exemption under paragraph (h) of this section if the requirements of any 
of paragraphs (h)(1) (i), (ii), (iii), or (iv) of this section are met.

[[Page 215]]

    (i) Its design parameters (displacement-to-weight ratio (D/W) and 
engine speed-to-vehicle-speed ratio (N/V)) fall within the exempted 
range for that manufacturer for that year. The exempted range is 
determined according to the following procedure:
    (A) The manufacturer shall graphically display the D/W and N/V data 
of all vehicle configurations it will offer for the model year in 
question. The axis of the abscissa shall be D/W (where (D) is the engine 
displacement expressed in cubic centimeters and (W) is the gross vehicle 
weight (GVW) expressed in pounds), and the axis of the ordinate shall be 
N/V (where (N) is the crankshaft speed expressed in revolutions per 
minute and (V) is the vehicle speed expressed in miles per hour). At the 
manufacturer's option, either the 1:1 transmission gear ratio or the 
lowest numerical gear ratio available in the transmission will be used 
to determine N/V. The gear selection must be the same for all N/V data 
points on the manufacturer's graph. For each transmission/axle ratio 
combination, only the lowest N/V value shall be used in the graphical 
display.
    (B) The product line is then defined by the equation, N/V = C(D/
W)-0.9 where the constant, C, is determined by the 
requirement that all the vehicle data points either fall on the line or 
lie to the upper right of the line as displayed on the graphs.
    (C) The exemption line is then defined by the equation, N/V = C(0.84 
D/W)-0.9 where the constant, C, is the same as that found in 
paragraph (h)(1)(i)(B) of this section.
    (D) The exempted range includes all values of N/V and D/W which 
simultaneously fall to the lower left of the exemption line as drawn on 
the graph.
    (ii) Its design parameters fall within the alternate exempted range 
for that manufacturer that year. The alternate exempted range is 
determined by substituting rated horsepower (hp) for displacement (D) in 
the exemption procedure described in paragraph (h)(1)(i) of this section 
and by using the product line N/V = C(hp/W)-0.9.
    (A) Rated horsepower shall be determined by using the Society of 
Automotive Engineers Test Procedure J 1349 (copies may be obtained from 
SAE, 400 Commonwealth Dr., Warrendale, PA 15096), or any subsequent 
version of that test procedure. Any of the horsepower determinants 
within that test procedure may be used, as long as it is used 
consistently throughout the manufacturer's product line in any model 
year.
    (B) No exemptions will be allowed under paragraph (h)(1)(ii) of this 
section to any manufacturer that has exempted vehicle configurations as 
set forth in paragraph (h)(1)(i) of this section.
    (iii) Its acceleration time (the time it takes a vehicle to 
accelerate from 0 to a speed not less than 40 miles per hour and not 
greater than 50 miles per hour) under high-altitude conditions is 
greater than the largest acceleration time under low-altitude conditions 
for that manufacturer for that year. The procedure to be followed in 
making this determination is:
    (A) The manufacturer shall list the vehicle configuration and 
acceleration time under low-altitude conditions of that vehicle 
configuration which has the highest acceleration time under low-altitude 
conditions of all the vehicle configurations it will offer for the model 
year in question. The manufacturer shall also submit a description of 
the methodology used to make this determination.
    (B) The manufacturer shall then list the vehicle configurations and 
acceleration times under high-altitude conditions of all those vehicle 
configurations which have higher acceleration times under high-altitude 
conditions than the highest acceleration time at low altitude identified 
in paragraph (h)(1)(iii)(A) of this section.
    (iv) In lieu of performing the test procedure of paragraph 
(h)(1)(iii) of this section, its acceleration time can be estimated 
based on the manufacturer's engineering evaluation, in accordance with 
good engineering practice, to meet the exemption criteria of paragraph 
(h)(1)(iii) of this section.
    (2) A vehicle shall only be considered eligible for exemption under 
this paragraph if at least one configuration of its model type (and 
transmission configuration in the case of vehicles equipped with manual 
transmissions,

[[Page 216]]

excluding differences due to the presence of overdrive) is certified to 
meet emission standards under high-altitude conditions as specified in 
paragraphs (a) through (g) of this section. The Certificate of 
Conformity (the Certificate) covering any exempted configuration(s) will 
also apply to the corresponding non-exempt configuration(s) required 
under this subparagraph. As a condition to the exemption, any 
suspension, revocation, voiding, or withdrawal of the Certificate as it 
applies to a non-exempt configuration for any reason will result in a 
suspension of the Certificate as it applies to the corresponding 
exempted configuration(s) of that model type, unless there is at least 
one other corresponding non-exempt configuration of the same model type 
still covered by the Certificate. The suspension of the Certificate as 
it applies to the exempted configuration(s) will be terminated when any 
one of the following occurs:
    (i) Another corresponding non-exempt configuration(s) receive(s) 
coverage under the Certificate; or
    (ii) Suspension of the Certificate as it applies to the 
corresponding non-exempt configuration(s) is terminated; or
    (iii) The Agency's action(s), with respect to suspension, 
revocation, voiding or withdrawal of the Certificate as it applies to 
the corresponding non-exempt configuration(s), is reversed.
    (3) The sale of a vehicle for principal use at a designated high-
altitude location that has been exempted as set forth in paragraph 
(h)(1) of this section will be considered a violation of section 
203(a)(1) of the Clean Air Act.
    (i)(1) The manufacturers may exempt 1994 and later model year light-
duty trucks from compliance at low altitude with the emission standards 
set forth in paragraphs (a) and (b) of this section if the vehicles:
    (i) Are not intended for sale at low altitude; and
    (ii) Are equipped with a unique, high-altitude axle ratio (rear-
wheel drive vehicles) or a unique, high-altitude drivetrain (front-wheel 
drive vehicles) with a higher N/V ratio than other configurations of 
that model type which are certified in compliance with the emission 
standards of paragraphs (a) and (b) of this section under low-altitude 
conditions.
    (2) The sale of a vehicle for principal use at low altitude that has 
been exempted as set forth in paragraph (i)(1) of this section will be 
considered a violation of section 203(a)(1) of the Clean Air Act.
    (j) Any light-duty truck that a manufacturer wishes to certify for 
sale under the provisions of paragraphs (h) or (i) of this section is 
subject to the provisions of subpart Q of this part.
    (k) Cold Temperature Carbon Monoxide (CO) Standards--(1) Light 
light-duty trucks. Exhaust emissions from 1994 and later model year 
gasoline-fueled light light-duty trucks with a loaded vehicle weight of 
3,750 lbs or less shall meet a cold temperature CO standard of 10.0 
grams per mile and gasoline-fueled light light-duty trucks with a loaded 
vehicle weight of greater than 3,750 lbs shall meet a cold temperature 
CO standard of 12.5 grams per mile, both for an intermediate useful life 
of 50,000 miles and according to the implementation schedule in table 
A94-16. This standard applies under both high and low altitude 
conditions. At the manufacturer's option, the manufacturer may combine 
the sales of gasoline-fueled light-duty vehicles, light-duty trucks, and 
heavy light-duty trucks in determining compliance with the required 1994 
and 1995 model year phase-in percentages as included in table A94-16.

    (2) Heavy light-duty trucks. Exhaust emissions from 1994 and later 
model year gasoline-fueled heavy light-duty trucks shall meet a cold 
temperature CO standard of 12.5 grams per mile for an intermediate 
useful life of 50,000 miles and according to the implementation schedule 
in table A94-16. This standard applies under both low and high altitude 
conditions. At the manufacturer's option, the manufacturer

[[Page 217]]

may combine the sales of gasoline-fueled light-duty vehicles, light 
light-duty trucks, and heavy light-duty trucks in determining compliance 
with the required 1994 and 1995 model year phase-in percentages as 
included in table A94-16.
    (3)(i) Sales percentages for the purposes of determining compliance 
with paragraphs (k)(1) and (k)(2) of this section shall be based on 
total actual and, at the manufacturer's option, combined U.S. sales of 
light-duty vehicles, light light-duty trucks, and heavy light-duty 
trucks of the applicable model year by a manufacturer to a dealer, 
distributor, fleet operator, broker, or any other entity which comprises 
the point of first sale.
    (ii) The manufacturer may petition the Administrator to allow actual 
volume produced for U.S. sales to be used in lieu of actual U.S. sales 
for purposes of determining compliance with the implementation schedule 
sales percentages of table A94-16. Such petition shall be submitted 
within 30 days of the end of the model year to the Manufacturers 
Operations Division. For the petition to be granted, the manufacturer 
must establish to the satisfaction of the Administrator that actual 
production volume is functionally equivalent to actual sales volume. 
Approval of the use of production data will be presumed unless otherwise 
notified by the Agency within 30 days of submittal of the petition.
    (iii) The manufacturer may count towards the sales percentages those 
light-duty vehicles, light light-duty trucks, and heavy light-duty 
trucks of the applicable model year sold in the state of California or 
in jurisdictions which have adopted the California emission standards 
under section 177 of the Clean Air Act if those light-duty vehicles, 
light light-duty trucks, and heavy light-duty trucks have been certified 
to meet the federally mandated cold CO standards. If this option is 
taken, all light-duty vehicles, light light-duty trucks and heavy light-
duty trucks sold in California and such jurisdictions shall be counted 
toward the total upon which the sales percentage is based. If this 
option is not taken, light-duty vehicles, light light-duty trucks, and 
heavy light-duty trucks sold in California or such jurisdictions are to 
be excluded from counting toward either the total upon which the sales 
percentage is based or the sales percentage itself.
    (iv) Small volume manufacturers, as defined in Sec. 86.092-14(b) (1) 
and (2), are exempt from the implementation schedules of table A94-16 
for model years 1994 and 1995. This exemption does not apply to small 
volume engine families as defined in Sec. 86.092-14(b)(5).
    (v) The manufacturer must state at the time of applying for the 
Certificate, based on projected U.S. sales or projected production for 
U.S. sale, which engine families will be used to attain the required 
implementation schedule sales percentages.

Sec. 86.094-13  Light-duty exhaust durability programs.

    (a)(1) This section describes the various durability programs 
available to manufacturers for determining exhaust deterioration factors 
(DFs) for the certification of 1994 and beyond model year light-duty 
vehicles and light-duty trucks. While this section describes many of the 
important elements of these durability programs, it is not intended as 
an exhaustive list of all requirements applicable either to these 
programs or to the certification process.
    (2) The durability programs consist of various elements, such as a 
statement of applicability, a service accumulation method, vehicle/
component selection methods, durability data vehicle compliance 
requirements, in-use verification requirements, optional elements, data 
reporting requirements, and additional requirements. Cross references to 
other sections in this subpart are indicated where appropriate.
    (b) The following table summarizes the durability programs available 
to all manufacturers of light-duty vehicles and light-duty trucks. The 
Tier 1 and Tier 0 standards cited in the table are those specified in 
Sec. 86.094-8 (for light-duty vehicles) and Sec. 86.094-9 (for light-
duty trucks). The durability programs described in this section are 
separate and distinct alternatives, such that determination of an 
exhaust deterioration factor under one program does not require 
compliance with the requirements of a different durability program.

to the conditions of paragraphs (d)(8)(iv) (B) through (F) of this 
section, a manufacturer may, at any time, withdraw all of its product 
line or separate engine family groups from this program. Only entire 
engine family groups may be withdrawn.
    (B) Once any engine family in an engine family group is certified 
using deterioration factors determined in the Production AMA Durability 
Program, the manufacturer shall operate and test the production 
durability data vehicles specified in Sec. 86.094-24(h) in accordance 
with the procedures of this part.
    (C) The Administrator shall notify the manufacturer if a 
nonconformity of a category of vehicles within the engine family group 
is indicated by the production durability data. For the

[[Page 222]]

purpose of this paragraph, a nonconformity is determined to exist if:
    (1) Any emission data vehicle within an engine family of the model 
year most recently certified under the production AMA Durability Program 
is projected to exceed an emission standard by applying deterioration 
factors generated by a production durability data vehicle within the 
same engine family; or
    (2) Any of the most recent model year's production durability data 
vehicle configurations tested under paragraph (d)(8)(iv)(B) of this 
section line crosses as defined in Sec. 86.094-28(a)(7)(ii)(C). For the 
purpose of this paragraph, data from identical vehicles will be averaged 
as under Sec. 86.094-28(a)(4)(i) (A) and (B)
    (D) If the Administrator notifies a manufacturer of such a 
nonconformity, the manufacturer shall submit, by a date specified by the 
Administrator, a plan to remedy the nonconformity which is acceptable to 
the Director, Office of Mobile Sources. For the purpose of this 
paragraph, the term ``remedy the nonconformity'' will have the same 
meaning as it does when it appears in section 207(c)(1) of the Clean Air 
Act (42 U.S.C. 7541(c)(1)).
    (E) The manufacturer shall comply with the terms of the remedial 
plan approved by the Director, Office of Mobile Sources.
    (F) If a manufacturer does not comply with the requirements of 
paragraph (d)(8)(iv) (B), (D), or (E) of this section, the Administrator 
may deem the certificate of conformity for the affected engine families 
void ab initio.

a service accumulation method for the Alternative Service Accumulation 
Durability Program, for advance approval by the Administrator. The 
method shall be consistent with good engineering practice and be 
designed to accurately predict the deterioration of the vehicle's 
emissions in actual use over its full useful life.
    (ii) Manufacturers may propose service accumulation methods based 
upon whole-vehicle mileage accumulation, bench aging of individual 
components or systems, or a combination of the two approaches. Bench 
procedures should simulate the aging of components or systems over the 
applicable durability useful life as defined in Sec. 86.094-2 and should 
simulate cycles and environments found in actual use. For this purpose, 
manufacturers may remove the emission-related components, in whole or in 
part, from the durability vehicle itself and deteriorate them 
independently. Vehicle testing for the purpose of determining 
deterioration factors may include the testing of durability vehicles 
that incorporate such bench-aged components.
    (iii) Service accumulation shall be according to the method approved 
in advance by the Administrator.
    (3) Vehicle/component selection method. The manufacturer shall 
propose a vehicle/component selection method for the Alternative Service 
Accumulation Durability Program for advance approval by the 
Administrator. The vehicle/component selection shall be according to the 
method approved in advance by the Administrator. The selection of 
durability data vehicles and components is also governed by Sec. 86.091-
7(a)(2)(i)(A), which generally requires that vehicles and components 
used for certification must be representative of production vehicles and 
components.
    (4) Durability data vehicle compliance requirements. The 
manufacturer shall propose procedures for the calculation of 
deterioration factors and for the determination of vehicle compliance 
for advance approval by the Administrator. The Administrator may approve 
the use of such procedures if the manufacturer demonstrates that the 
resulting deterioration factors are likely to be representative of the 
in-use performance of the vehicles. The calculation of deterioration 
factors and the determination of vehicle compliance shall be according 
to the procedures approved in advance by the Administrator.
    (5) In-use verification. Manufacturers selecting the Alternative 
Service Accumulation Durability Program shall agree to perform an in-use 
verification

[[Page 223]]

program, which shall include testing on in-use vehicles certified under 
the program in the years subsequent to certification. The purpose of the 
in-use verification program is to confirm the adequacy of the 
manufacturer-designed components of the Alternative Service Accumulation 
Durability program. The manufacturer shall propose sample sizes, 
recruitment procedures, testing procedures, optional provisions for the 
cessation of testing in the event the in-use testing confirms the 
adequacy of elements of the Alternative Service Accumulation Durability 
Program, and remedies in the event the in-use testing fails to confirm 
the adequacy of elements of the Alternative Service Accumulation 
Durability program. These and other elements of in-use verification are 
subject to advance approval by the Administrator.
    (6) Optional element: Carryover and carryacross. Manufacturers 
selecting the Alternative Service Accumulation Durability Program may 
petition the Administrator for the conditional use of carryover or 
carryacross mileage accumulation data according to the provisions of 
Sec. 86.094-24(f). If use of carryover or carryacross data is approved, 
deterioration factors are determined by the method described in 
paragraph (e)(4) of this section.

determined under paragraph (e)(4) of this section, the manufacturer 
shall provide reliability data that shows to the Administrator's 
satisfaction that all emission-related components are designed to 
operate properly for the durability useful life of the vehicles in 
actual use (or such shorter intervals as permitted in section 
Sec. 86.094-25).
    (8) Additional requirements. (i) The manufacturer shall consolidate 
the approved versions for each of the required elements of the 
Alternative Service Accumulation Durability Program into a written 
agreement that documents the details of the program and the 
manufacturer's responsibilities. The manufacturer shall submit this 
agreement for approval by the Administrator as part of the application 
for certification.
    (ii) The manufacturer may amend the written agreement entered into 
pursuant to paragraph (e)(8)(i) of this section so long as the 
manufacturer demonstrates to the satisfaction of the Administrator that 
the proposed amendments to the agreement improve upon the in-use 
verification portion of the existing agreement. Such amendment to the 
Alternative Service Accumulation Durability Program agreement is subject 
to the prior approval of the Administrator.
    (iii) The certification requirements described in Sec. 86.094-
30(a)(14) are applicable.

the form and extent of service accumulation used in the Standard Self-
Approval Durability Program, according to the provisions of Sec. 86.094-
26(b)(2). The method shall be consistent with good engineering practice 
and be designed to evaluate the mechanisms that are expected to cause 
deterioration of the vehicle's emissions over its full useful life.
    (3) Vehicle/component selection method. The manufacturer shall 
determine the vehicle/component selection method for use in the Standard 
Self-Approval Durability Program according to the provisions of 
Sec. 86.094-24(c)(2). Manufacturers shall select the vehicles, engines, 
subsystems, or components for each engine-system so that their emissions 
deterioration characteristics may be expected to represent those of in-
use vehicles, based on good engineering judgment. The selection of 
durability data vehicles or components is also governed by Sec. 86.091-
7(a)(2)(A), which generally requires that vehicles and components used 
for certification must be representative of production vehicles and 
components.
    (4) Durability data vehicle compliance requirements. Durability data 
vehicle compliance requirements for the

[[Page 224]]

Standard Self-approval Durability Program are contained in Sec. 86.094-
28(b). These include the method of calculating deterioration factors and 
related requirements.
    (5) In-use verification. The Standard Self-Approval Durability 
Program includes no requirement for manufacturer testing of in-use 
vehicles subsequent to certification.
    (6) Data reporting requirements. Data reporting requirements for the

Sec. 86.094-14  Small-volume manufacturers certification procedures.

    (a)(1) The small-volume manufacturers certification procedures 
described in paragraphs (b) and (c) of this section are optional. Small-
volume manufacturers may use these optional procedures to demonstrate 
compliance with the general standards and specific emission requirements 
contained in this subpart.
    (2) To satisfy the durability data requirements of the small-volume 
manufacturers certification procedures, manufacturers of vehicles (or 
engines) as described in paragraph (b) of this section may use assigned 
deterioration factors that the Administrator determines by methods 
described in paragraph (c)(7)(i)(C) of this section. However, if no 
deterioration factor data (either the manufacturer's or industry-wide 
deterioration factor data) are available from previously completed 
durability data vehicles or engines used for certification, 
manufacturers of vehicles (or engines) as described in paragraph (b) of 
this section or with new technology not previously certified may use 
assigned deterioration factors that the Administrator determines by 
alternative methods, based on good engineering judgement. The factors 
that the Administrator determines by alternative methods will be 
published in an advisory letter or advisory circular.
    (b)(1) The optional small-volume manufacturers certification 
procedures apply to light-duty vehicles, light-duty trucks, heavy-duty 
vehicles, and heavy-duty engines produced by manufacturers with U.S. 
sales, including all vehicles and engines imported under the provisions 
of Secs. 85.1505 and 85.1509 of this chapter (for the model year in 
which certification is sought) of fewer than 10,000 units (Light-Duty 
Vehicles, Light-Duty Trucks, Heavy-Duty Vehicles and Heavy-Duty Engines 
combined).
    (2) For the purpose of determining the applicability of paragraph 
(b)(1) of this section, the sales the Administrator shall use shall be 
the aggregate of the projected or actual sales of those vehicles and/or 
engines in any of these groupings:

[[Page 225]]

    (i) Vehicles and/or engines produced by two or more firms, one of 
which is 10 percent or greater part owned by another;
    (ii) Vehicles and/or engines produced by any two or more firms if a 
third party has equity ownership of 10 percent or more in each of the 
firms;
    (iii) Vehicles and/or engines produced by two or more firms having a 
common corporate officer(s) who is (are) responsible for the overall 
direction of the companies;
    (iv) Vehicles and/or engines imported or distributed by all firms 
where the vehicles and/or engines are manufactured by the same entity 
and the importer or distributor is an authorized agent of the entity.
    (3) If the aggregated sales, as determined in paragraph (b)(2) of 
this section are less than 301 units, the manufacturers in the 
aggregated relationship may certify under the provisions in this section 
that apply to manufacturers with sales of less than 301 units.
    (4) If the aggregated sales, as determined in paragraph (b)(2) of 
this section are greater than 300 but fewer than 10,000 units, the 
manufacturers in the aggregated relationship may certify under the 
provisions in this section that apply to manufacturers with sales from 
and including 301 through 9,999 motor vehicles and motor vehicles 
engines per year.
    (5) If the aggregated sales, as determined in paragraph (b)(2) of 
this section are equal to or greater than 10,000 units, then the 
manufacturers involved in the aggregated relationship will be allowed to 
certify a number of units under the small-volume engine family 
certification procedures (reference Sec. 86.094-24(e)) in accordance 
with the criteria identified in paragraphs (b)(5) (i) through (iii) of 
this section.
    (i) If a manufacturer purchases less than 50 percent of another 
manufacturer, each manufacturer retains its right to certify 9,999 units 
using the small-volume engine family certification procedures.
    (ii) If a manufacturer purchases 50 percent or more of another 
manufacturer, the manufacturer with the over 50 percent interest must 
share, with the manufacturer it purchased, its 9,999 units under the 
small-volume engine family certification procedures.
    (iii) In a joint venture arrangement (50/50 ownership) between two 
manufacturers, each manufacturer retains its eligibility for 9,999 units 
under the small-volume engine family certification procedures, but the 
joint venture must draw its maximum 9,999 units from the units allocated 
to its parent manufacturers.
    (c) Small-volume manufacturers shall demonstrate compliance with the 
applicable sections of this subpart. The appropriate model year of the 
applicable sections detailed in paragraphs (c) (1) through (15) of this 
section shall be determined in accordance with Sec. 86.084-4.
    (1) Sections 86.094-1, 86.094-2, 86.094-3, 86.084-4, 86.090-5, 
86.078-6, 86.094-7, 86.094-8, 86.094-9, and 86.094-11 are applicable.
    (2) Section 86.080-12 is not applicable.
    (3) Sections 86.094-13, 86.094-14, 86.084-15, and 86.085-20 are 
applicable.
    (4) Small-volume manufacturers shall include in their records all of 
the information that EPA requires in Sec. 86.094-21. This information 
will be considered part of the manufacturer's application for 
certification. However, the manufacturer is not required to submit the 
information to the Administrator unless the Administrator requests it.
    (5) Section 86.094-22 is applicable except as noted in paragraph 
(c)(5)(i) of this section.
    (i) Small-volume light-duty vehicle and light-duty truck 
manufacturers may satisfy the requirements of Sec. 86.094-22(e) by 
including a statement of compliance on adjustable parameters in the 
application for certification. In the statement of compliance the 
manufacturer shall state that the limits, stops, seals, or other means 
used to inhibit adjustment have been designed to accomplish their 
intended purpose based on good engineering practice and past experience. 
If the vehicle parameter is adjustable the vehicle must meet emission 
standards with the parameter set any place within the adjustable range 
(reference Sec. 86.094-21).
    (ii) [Reserved]
    (6) Section 86.094-23 is applicable.

[[Page 226]]

    (7) Section 86.094-24 is applicable except as noted in paragraphs 
(c)(7) (i) through (ii) of this section.
    (i) Small-volume manufacturers may satisfy the requirements of 
Sec. 86.094-24 (b) and (c) in accordance with paragraphs (c)(7)(i) (A) 
through (C) of this section.
    (A) Emission data. Selecting one emission data test vehicle (engine) 
per engine family by the worst-case emissions criteria in accordance 
with paragraph (c)(7)(i)(A) (1), (2), or (3) of this section.
    (1) Light-duty vehicles and light-duty trucks. The manufacturer 
shall select the vehicle with the heaviest equivalent test weight 
(including options) within the engine family. Then within that vehicle 
the manufacturer shall select, in the order listed, the highest road 
load power, largest displacement, the transmission with the highest 
numerical final gear ratio (including overdrive), the highest numerical 
axle ratio offered in the engine family, and the maximum fuel flow 
calibration.
    (2) Heavy-duty Otto-cycle engines. The manufacturer shall select one 
emission data engine first based on the largest displacement within the 
engine family. Then within the largest displacement the manufacturer 
shall select, in the order listed, highest fuel flow at the speed of 
maximum rated torque, the engine with the most advanced spark timing, no 
EGR or lowest EGR flow, and no air pump or lowest actual flow air pump.
    (3) Heavy-duty diesel engines. The manufacturer shall select one 
emission data engine based on the highest fuel feed per stroke, 
primarily at the speed of maximum rated torque and secondarily at rated 
speed.
    (B) Testing light-duty vehicles or light-duty truck emission data 
vehicles at any service accumulation distance of at least 2,000 miles 
(3,219 kilometers) or, catalyst equipped heavy-duty emission data 
engines at any service accumulation time of at least 62 hours, or non-
catalyst equipped heavy-duty engine emission data engines at any service 
accumulation time determined by the manufacturer to result in stabilized 
emissions. The emission performance of the emission data vehicle or 
engine must be stabilized prior to emission testing.
    (C) Durability data. Satisfying the durability data requirements by 
complying with the applicable procedures described in paragraphs 
(c)(7)(i)(C) (1) through (4) of this section.
    (1) Manufacturers with aggregated sales of less than 301 motor 
vehicles and motor vehicle engines per year may use assigned 
deterioration factors that the Administrator determines and prescribes. 
The factors will be the Administrator's estimate, periodically updated 
and published in an advisory letter or advisory circular, of the 70th 
percentile deterioration factors calculated using the industry-wide data 
base of previously completed durability data vehicles or engines used 
for certification. However, the manufacturer may, at its option, 
accumulate miles (hours) on a durability data vehicle (engine) and 
complete emission tests for the purpose of establishing its own 
deterioration factors.
    (2)(i) Manufacturers with aggregated sales from and including 301 
through 9,999 motor vehicles and motor vehicle engines per year 
certifying light-duty vehicle exhaust emissions from vehicles equipped 
with proven emission control systems shall use assigned deterioration 
factors that the manufacturer determines based on its good engineering 
judgment. However, the manufacturer may not use deterioration factors 
less than either the average or 70th percentile of all of that 
manufacturer's deterioration factor data, whichever is less. These 
minimum deterioration factors shall be calculated according to 
procedures in paragraph (c)(7)(i)(C)(2)(ii), of this section. If the 
manufacturer does not have at least two data points to calculate these 
manufacturer specific average deterioration factors, then the 
deterioration factors shall be no less than the EPA supplied industry-
wide deterioration factors. However, the manufacturer may, at its 
option, accumulate miles on a durability data vehicle and complete 
emission tests for the purpose of establishing its own deterioration 
factors.
    (ii) The manufacturer's minimum deterioration factors shall be 
calculated using the deterioration factors from all

[[Page 227]]

engine families, within the same vehicle/engine-fuel usage category 
(e.g., gasoline-fueled light-duty vehicle, etc.) previously certified to 
the same emission standards. The manufacturer shall use only 
deterioration factors from engine families previously certified by the 
manufacturer and the deterioration factors shall not be included in the 
calculation more than once. The deterioration factors for each pollutant 
shall be calculated separately. The manufacturer may, at its option, 
limit the deterioration factors used in the calculation of the 
manufacturer's minimum deterioration factors to those from all similar 
systems to the system being certified if sufficient data (i.e., from at 
least two certified systems) exists. All data eligible to be grouped as 
similar system data shall be used in calculating similar system 
deterioration factors. Any deterioration factors used in calculating 
similar system deterioration factors shall not be included in 
calculating the manufacturer's minimum deterioration factors used to 
certify any of the manufacturer's remaining vehicle systems.
    (3) Manufacturers with aggregated sales from 301 through 9,999 motor 
vehicles and motor vehicle engines and certifying light-duty vehicle 
exhaust emissions from vehicles equipped with unproven emission control 
systems shall use deterioration factors that the manufacturer determines 
from official certification durability data generated by vehicles from 
engine families representing a minimum of 25 percent of the 
manufacturer's sales equipped with unproven emission control systems. 
The sales projections are to be based on total sales projected for each 
engine/system combination. The durability programs applicable to such 
manufacturers for this purpose shall be the Standard AMA, the Production 
AMA and the Alternative Service Accumulation Durability Programs of 
Sec. 86.094-13. The durability data vehicle (engine) mileage 
accumulation and emission tests are to be conducted in accordance with 
Sec. 86.094-13. The manufacturer must develop deterioration factors by 
generating durability data in accordance with Sec. 86.094-13 on a 
minimum of 25 percent of the manufacturer's projected sales (by engine/
system combination) that is equipped with unproven emission control 
systems. The manufacturer must complete the 25 percent durability 
requirement before the remainder of the manufacturer's sales equipped 
with unproven emission control systems is certified using manufacturer-
determined assigned deterioration factors. Alternatively, any of these 
manufacturers may, at their option, accumulate miles on durability data 
vehicles and complete emission tests for the purpose of establishing 
their own deterioration factors on the remaining sales.
    (4) For light-duty vehicle, light-duty truck, and heavy-duty vehicle 
evaporative emissions and for light-duty truck, and heavy-duty engine 
exhaust emissions, deterioration factors shall be determined in 
accordance with Sec. 86.094-24.
    (ii) Section 86.094-24(d) and (e) are not applicable.
    (8) Section 86.094-25 is applicable to maintenance performed on 
durability data light-duty vehicles, light-duty trucks, heavy-duty 
vehicles, and heavy-duty engines when the manufacturer completes 
durability data vehicles or engines; Sec. 86.087-38 is applicable to the 
recommended maintenance the manufacturer includes in the maintenance 
instructions furnished the purchasers of new motor vehicles and new 
motor vehicle engines under Sec. 86.087-38.
    (9)(i) Section 86.094-26 is applicable if the manufacturer completes 
durability data vehicles or engines.
    (ii) Section 86.090-27 is applicable.
    (10) Sections 86.094-28 and 86.091-29 are applicable.
    (11)(i) Section 86.094-30 is applicable, except for Sec. 86.094-30 
(a)(2) and (b). In the place of Sec. 86.094-30 (a)(2) and (b), small-
volume manufacturers shall comply with paragraphs (c)(11) (ii) through 
(v) of this section.
    (ii) Small-volume manufacturers shall submit an application for 
certification containing the elements contained in paragraphs 
(c)(11)(ii) (A) through (E) of this section.
    (A) The names, addresses, and telephone numbers of the persons the 
manufacturer authorizes to communicate with us.

Sec. 86.094-15  NOX and particulate averaging, trading, and banking for heavy-duty engines.

    (a)(1) Heavy-duty engines eligible for NOX and 
particulate averaging, trading and banking programs are described in the 
applicable emission standards sections in this subpart. All heavy-duty 
engine families which include any engines labeled for use in clean-fuel 
vehicles as specified in 40 CFR part 88 are not eligible for these 
programs. Participation in these programs is voluntary.
    (2)(i) Engine families with FELs exceeding the applicable standard 
shall obtain emission credits in a mass amount sufficient to address the 
shortfall. Credits may be obtained from averaging, trading, or banking, 
within the averaging set restrictions described in this section.
    (ii) Engine families with FELs below the applicable standard will 
have emission credits available to average, trade,

[[Page 230]]

bank or a combination thereof. Credits may not be used for averaging or 
trading to offset emissions that exceed an FEL. Credits may not be used 
to remedy an in-use nonconformity determined by a Selective Enforcement 
Audit or by recall testing. However, credits may be used to allow 
subsequent production of engines for the family in question if the 
manufacturer elects to recertify to a higher FEL.
    (iii) Credits scheduled to expire in the earliest model year shall 
be used, prior to using other available credits, to offset emissions of 
engine families with FELs exceeding the applicable standard.
    (b) Participation in the NOX and/or particulate 
averaging, trading, and banking programs shall be done as follows.
    (1) During certification, the manufacturer shall:
    (i) Declare its intent to include specific engine families in the 
averaging, trading and/or banking programs. Separate declarations are 
required for each program and for each pollutant (i.e., NOX 
and particulate).
    (ii) Declare an FEL for each engine family participating in one or 
more of these three programs.
    (A) The FEL must be to the same level of significant digits as the 
emission standard (one-tenth of a gram per brake horsepower for 
NOX emissions and one-hundredth of a gram per brake 
horsepower-hour for particulate emissions).
    (B) In no case may the FEL exceed the upper limit prescribed in the 
section concerning the applicable heavy-duty engine NOX and 
particulate emission standards.
    (iii) Calculate the projected emission credits ( +/- ) based on 
quarterly production projections for each participating family and for 
each pollutant (NOX and particulate), using the applicable 
equation in paragraph (c) of this section and the applicable factors for 
the specific engine family.
    (iv)(A) Determine and state the source of the needed credits 
according to quarterly projected production for engine families 
requiring credits for certification.
    (B) State where the quarterly projected credits will be applied for 
engine families generating credits.
    (C) Credits may be obtained from or applied to only engine families 
within the same averaging set as described in paragraphs (d) and (e) of 
this section. Credits available for averaging, trading, or banking as 
defined in Sec. 86.090-2, may be applied exclusively to a given engine 
family, or reserved as defined in Sec. 86.091-2.
    (2) Based on this information each manufacturer's certification 
application must demonstrate:
    (i) That at the end of model year production, each engine family has 
a net emissions credit balance of zero or more using the methodology in 
paragraph (c) of this section with any credits obtained from averaging, 
trading or banking.
    (ii) The source of the credits to be used to comply with the 
emission standard if the FEL exceeds the standard, or where credits will 
be applied if the FEL is less than the emission standard. In cases where 
credits are being obtained, each engine family involved must state 
specifically the source (manufacturer/engine family) of the credits 
being used. In cases where credits are being generated/supplied, each 
engine family involved must state specifically the designated use 
(manufacturer/engine family or reserved) of the credits involved. All 
such reports shall include all credits involved in averaging, trading or 
banking.
    (3) During the model year manufacturers must:
    (i) Monitor projected versus actual production to be certain that 
compliance with the emission standards is achieved at the end of the 
model year.
    (ii) Provide the end-of-model year reports required under 
Sec. 86.091-23.
    (iii) For manufacturers participating in emission credit trading, 
maintain the quarterly records required under Sec. 86.091-7(c)(8).
    (4) Projected credits based on information supplied in the 
certification application may be used to obtain a certificate of 
conformity. However, any such credits may be revoked based on review of 
end-of-model year reports,

[[Page 231]]

follow-up audits, and any other compliance measures deemed appropriate 
by the Administrator.
    (5) Compliance under averaging, banking, and trading will be 
determined at the end of the model year. Engine families without an 
adequate amount of NOX and/or particulate emission credits 
will violate the conditions of the certificate of conformity. The 
certificates of conformity may be voided ab initio for engine families 
exceeding the emission standard.
    (6) If EPA or the manufacturer determines that a reporting error 
occurred on an end-of-year report previously submitted to EPA under this 
section, the manufacturer's credits and credit calculations will be 
recalculated. Erroneous positive credits will be void. Erroneous 
negative balances may be adjusted by EPA for retroactive use.
    (i) If EPA review of a manufacturer's end-of-year report indicates a 
credit shortfall, the manufacturer will be permitted to purchase the 
necessary credits to bring the credit balance for that engine family to 
zero, at the ratio of 1.2 credits purchased for every credit needed to 
bring the balance to zero. If sufficient credits are not available to 
bring the credit balance for the engine family in question to zero, EPA 
may void the certificate for that engine family ab initio.
    (ii) If within 180 days of receipt of the manufacturer's end-of-year 
report, EPA review determines a reporting error in the manufacturer's 
favor (i.e. resulting in a positive credit balance) or if the 
manufacturer discovers such an error within 180 days of EPA receipt of 
the end-of-year report, the credits will be restored for use by the 
manufacturer.
    (c)(1) For each participating engine family, NOX and 
particulate emission credits (positive or negative) are to be calculated 
according to one of the following equations and rounded, in accordance 
with ASTM E29-67, to the nearest one-tenth of a Megagram (Mg). 
Consistent units are to be used throughout the equation.

    For determining credit need for all engine families and credit 
availability for engine families generating credits for averaging 
programs only:

Emission credits = (Std FEL)  x  (CF)  x  (UL)  x  (Production)  x  
          (10-6)

For determining credit availability for engine families generating 
          credits for trading or banking programs:

Emission credits = (Std FEL)  x  (CF)  x  (UL)  x  (Production)  x  
          (10-6)  x  (0.8)

Where:

Std = the current and applicable heavy-duty engine NOX or 
          particulate emission standard in grams per brake horsepower 
          hour or grams per Megajoule.
FEL = the NOX or particulate family emission limit for the 
          engine family in grams per brake horsepower-hour or grams per 
          Megajoule.
CF = a transient cycle conversion factor in BHP-hr/mi or MJ/mi, as given 
          in paragraph (c)(2) of this section.
UL = the useful life, or alternative life as described in paragraph (f) 
          of Sec. 86.090-21, for the given engine family in miles.
Production = the number of engines produced for U.S. sales within the 
          given engine family during the model year. Quarterly 
          production projections are used for initial certification. 
          Actual production is used for end-of-year compliance 
          determination.
0.8 = a one-time discount applied to all credits to be banked or traded 
          within the model year generated. Banked credits traded in a 
          subsequent model year will not be subject to an additional 
          discount. Banked credits used in a subsequent model year's 
          averaging program will not have the discount restored.

    (2) The transient cycle conversion factor is the total (integrated) 
cycle brake horsepower- hour or Megajoules, divided by the equivalent 
mileage of the applicable transient cycle. For Otto-cycle-heavy duty 
engines, the equivalent mileage is 6.3 miles. For diesel heavy-duty 
engines, the equivalent mileage is 6.5 miles. When more than one 
configuration is chosen by EPA to be tested in the certification of an 
engine family (as described in Sec. 86.085-24), the conversion factor 
used is to be based upon the configuration generating the highest 
conversion factor when determining credit need for a family and the 
lowest conversion factor when determining credit availability from a 
family for banking, trading and averaging.
    (d) Averaging sets for NOx emission credits: The 
averaging and trading of

[[Page 232]]

NOX emission credits will only be allowed between heavy-duty 
engine families in the same averaging set and in the same regional 
category. Engines produced for sale in California constitute a separate 
regional category than engines produced for sale in the other 49 states. 
Banking and trading are not applicable to engines sold in California. 
The averaging sets for the averaging and trading of NOX 
emission credits for heavy-duty engines are defined as follows:
    (1) For Otto-cycle heavy-duty engines:
    (i) Otto-cycle heavy-duty engines constitute an averaging set. 
Averaging and trading among all Otto-cycle heavy-duty engine families is 
allowed. There are no subclass restrictions.
    (ii) Gasoline-fueled heavy-duty vehicles certified under the 
provisions of Sec. 86.085-1 (b) may not average or trade credits with 
gasoline fueled heavy-duty Otto-cycle engines, but may average or trade 
credits with light-duty trucks.
    (2) For diesel cycle heavy-duty engines:
    (i) Each of the three primary intended service classes for heavy-
duty diesel engines, as defined in Sec. 86.090-2, constitute an 
averaging set. Averaging and trading among all diesel-cycle engine 
families within the same primary service class is allowed.
    (ii) Urban buses are treated as members of the primary intended 
service class where they otherwise would fall.
    (e) Averaging sets for particulate emission credits. The averaging 
and trading of particulate emission credits will only be allowed between 
diesel cycle heavy-duty engine families in the same averaging set and in 
the same regional category. Engines produced for sale in California 
constitute a separate regional category than engines produced for sale 
in the other 49 states. Banking and trading are not applicable to 
engines sold in California. The averaging sets for the averaging and 
trading of particulate emission credits for diesel cycle heavy-duty 
engines are defined as follows:
    (1) Engines intended for use in urban buses constitute a separate 
averaging set from all other heavy-duty engines. Averaging and trading 
between diesel cycle bus engine families is allowed.
    (2) For heavy-duty engines, exclusive of urban bus engines, each of 
the three primary intended service classes for heavy-duty diesel cycle 
engines, as defined in Sec. 86.090-2, constitute an averaging set. 
Averaging and trading between diesel-cycle engine families within the 
same primary service class is allowed.
    (3) Otto cycle engines may not participate in particulate averaging, 
trading, or banking.
    (f) Banking of NOX and particulate emission credits:
    (1) Credit deposits. (i) NOX and particulate emission 
credits may be banked from engine families produced in any model year.
    (ii) Manufacturers may bank credits only after the end of the model 
year and after actual credits have been reported to EPA in the end-of-
year report. During the model year and before submittal of the end-of-
year report, credits originally designated in the certification process 
for banking will be considered reserved and may be redesignated for 
trading or averaging.
    (2) Credit withdrawals. (i) After being generated, banked credits 
shall be available for use within three model years following the model 
year in which they were generated. Credits not used within the period 
specified above shall be forfeited.
    (ii) Manufacturers withdrawing banked emission credits shall 
indicate so during certification and in their credit reports, as 
described in Sec. 86.091-23.
    (3) Use of banked emission credits. The use of banked credits shall 
be within the averaging set and other restrictions described in 
paragraphs (d) and (e) of this section, and only for the following 
purposes:
    (i) Banked credits may be used in averaging, or in trading, or in 
any combination thereof, during the certification period. Credits 
declared for banking from the previous model year but not reported to 
EPA may also be used. However, if EPA finds that the reported credits 
can not be proven, they will be revoked and unavailable for use.
    (ii) Banked credits may not be used for NOX or 
particulate averaging and trading to offset emissions that exceed an 
FEL. Banked credits may not be

[[Page 233]]

used to remedy an in-use nonconformity determined by a Selective 
Enforcement Audit or by recall testing. However, banked credits may be 
used for subsequent production of the engine family if the manufacturer 
elects to recertify to a higher FEL.
    (g)(1) The following paragraphs assume NOX and 
particulate nonconformance penalties (NCPs) will be available for the 
1991 and later model year HDEs.
    (2) Engine families using NOX and/or particulate NCPs but 
not involved in averaging:
    (i) May not generate either NOX or particulate credits 
for banking and trading.
    (ii) May not use either NOX or particulate credits from 
banking and trading.
    (3) If a manufacturer has any engine family to which application of 
NCPs and banking and trading credits is desired, that family must be 
separated into two distinct families. One family, whose FEL equals the 
standard, must use NCPs only while the other, whose FEL does not equal 
the standard, must use credits only.
    (4) If a manufacturer has any engine family in a given averaging set 
which is using NOX and/or particulate NCPs, none of that 
manufacturer's engine families in that averaging set may generate 
credits for banking and trading.
    (h) In the event of a negative credit balance in a trading 
situation, both the buyer and the seller would be liable.
    (i) Certification fuel used for credit generation must be of a type 
that is both available in use and expected to be used by the engine 
purchaser. Therefore, upon request by the Administrator, the engine 
manufacturer must provide information acceptable to the Administrator 
that the designated fuel is readily available commercially and would be 
used in customer service.

Sec. 86.094-16  Prohibition of defeat devices.

    (a) No new gasoline-fueled light-duty vehicle or light-duty truck 
shall be equipped with a defeat device.
    (b) The Administrator may test or require testing on any vehicle at 
a designated location, using driving cycles and conditions which may 
reasonably be expected to be encountered in normal operation and use, 
for the purposes of investigating a potential defeat device.
    (c) For cold temperature CO emission control, the Administrator will 
use a guideline to determine the appropriateness of the CO emission 
control at ambient temperatures between 25  deg.F (-4  deg.C) and 68 
deg.F (20  deg.C). The guideline for CO emission congruity across the 
intermediate temperature range is the linear interpolation between the 
CO standard applicable at 25  deg.F (-4  deg.C) and the CO standard 
applicable at 68  deg.F (20  deg.C). For vehicles that exceed this CO 
emissions guideline upon intermediate temperature cold testing:
    (1) If the CO emission level is greater than the 20  deg.F (-7 
deg.C) emission standard, the vehicle will automatically be considered 
to be equipped with a defeat device without further investigation.
    (2) If the CO emission level does not exceed the 20  deg.F emission 
standard, the Administrator may investigate the vehicle design for the 
presence of a defeat device under paragraph (d) of this section.
    (d) For vehicle designs designated by the Administrator to be 
investigated for possible defeat devices:
    (1) The manufacturer must show to the satisfaction of the 
Administrator that the vehicle design does not incorporate strategies 
that unnecessarily reduce emission control effectiveness exhibited 
during the Federal emissions test procedure when the vehicle is operated 
under conditions which may reasonably be expected to be encountered in 
normal operation and use.
    (2) Information Submissions Required:
    (i) The manufacturer will provide an explanation containing detailed 
information (including information which the Administrator may request 
to be submitted) regarding test programs, engineering evaluations, 
design specifications, calibrations, on-board computer algorithms, and 
design strategies incorporated for operation both during and outside of 
the Federal emission test procedure.
    (ii) For purposes of investigations of possible cold temperature CO 
defeat devices under this paragraph (d), the

[[Page 234]]

manufacturer shall provide an explanation which must show, to the 
satisfaction of the Administrator, that CO emissions are reasonably 
controlled in reference to the linear guideline, across the intermediate 
temperature range.

Sec. 86.094-17  Emission control diagnostic system for 1994 and later light-duty vehicles and light-duty trucks.

    (a) All light-duty vehicles and light-duty trucks shall be equipped 
with an emission control diagnostic system capable of identifying, for 
each vehicle's useful life, the following types of deterioration or 
malfunction which could cause emission increases greater than or 
exceeding the following threshold levels as measured and calculated in 
accordance with test procedures set forth in subpart B of this part. 
Paragraphs (a)(2) and (a)(3) of this section do not apply to diesel 
cycle light-duty vehicles or light-duty trucks. Paragraphs (a)(1) 
through (a)(4) of this section do not apply to natural gas-fueled light-
duty vehicles and light-duty trucks until the 1998 model year.
    (1) Catalyst deterioration before it results in both an exhaust 
emission exceedance of 0.6 g/mi HC and an exhaust emission increase of 
0.4 g/mi HC.
    (2) Engine misfire before it results in an exhaust emission increase 
of greater than 0.4 g/mi HC, 3.4 g/mi CO, or 1.0 g/mi NOX.
    (3) Oxygen sensor deterioration before it results in an exhaust 
emission increase of greater than 0.2 g/mi HC, 1.7 g/mi CO, or 0.5 g/mi 
NOX.
    (4) Any other deterioration or malfunction within the powertrain 
which occurs in actual use and which results in an exhaust emission 
increase of greater than 0.2 g/mi HC, 1.7 g/mi CO, or 0.5 g/mi 
NOX, or any vapor leak which results in an evaporative 
emissions increase of greater than 30.0 g/test measured over the first 
24 hours of the diurnal portion of the revised evaporative emissions 
test procedure, in accordance with test procedures set forth in subpart 
B of this part, for vehicles certified to that test procedure.
    (b)(1) The electronic evaporative emission purge control, if 
equipped, and all emission-related powertrain components connected to a 
computer shall, at a minimum, be monitored for circuit continuity. In 
lieu of monitoring circuit continuity, a functional system check may be 
performed provided the manufacturer can demonstrate that the functional 
check is equivalent or superior to the circuit continuity monitor. All 
components required by these regulations to be monitored shall be 
evaluated periodically, but no less frequently than once per Urban 
Dynamometer Driving Schedule as defined in appendix I, paragraph (a), of 
this part, or similar trip.
    (2) For non-diesel cycle light-duty vehicles and light-duty trucks, 
the emission control diagnostic system shall at a minimum, monitor 
catalytic converters and oxygen sensors and shall detect misfiring 
cylinders.
    (3) Oxygen sensor deterioration or malfunction which renders that 
sensor incapable of performing its function as part of the OBD system 
shall be identified on vehicles so equipped.
    (c) The emission control diagnostic system shall incorporate a 
malfunction indicator light (MIL) readily visible to the vehicle 
operator. When illuminated, it shall display ``Check Engine,'' ``Service 
Engine Soon,'' or a similar phrase approved by the Administrator. A 
vehicle shall not be equipped with more than one general purpose 
malfunction indicator light for emission-related problems; separate 
specific purpose warning lights (e.g. brake system, fasten seat belt, 
oil pressure, etc.) are permitted. The use of red for the OBD-related 
malfunction indicator light is prohibited.
    (d) The MIL shall illuminate and remain illuminated when any of the 
conditions specified in paragraphs (a) and (b) of this section are met, 
or whenever the engine control enters a default or secondary mode of 
operation. The MIL shall blink under any period of operation during 
which engine misfire is occurring at a level likely to cause catalyst 
damage as determined by the manufacturer. The MIL shall also illuminate 
when the vehicle's ignition is in the ``key-on'' position before engine 
starting or cranking and extinguish after engine starting if no 
malfunction has previously been detected. If a fuel

[[Page 235]]

system or engine misfire malfunction has previously been detected, the 
MIL may be extinguished if the malfunction does not reoccur during three 
subsequent sequential trips during which engine speed is within 375 rpm, 
engine load is within 10 percent, and the engine's warm-up status is the 
same as that under which the malfunction was first detected, and no new 
malfunctions have been detected. If any malfunction other than a fuel 
system or engine misfire malfunction has been detected, the MIL may be 
extinguished if the malfunction does not reoccur during three subsequent 
sequential trips during which the monitoring system responsible for 
illuminating the MIL functions without detecting the malfunction, and no 
new malfunctions have been detected.
    (e)(1) The emission control diagnostic system shall record code(s) 
indicating the status of the emission control system. Absent the 
presence of any fault codes, separate status codes shall be used to 
identify correctly functioning emission control systems and those 
emission control systems which need further vehicle operation to be 
fully evaluated. Fault codes shall be stored for deterioration or 
malfunction causing MIL illumination; the fault code shall identify the 
type of malfunction.
    (2) For a single misfiring cylinder, the fault code(s) shall 
identify the cylinder, unless the manufacturer submits data and/or an 
engineering evaluation which adequately demonstrate that the misfiring 
cylinder cannot be reliably identified under certain operating 
conditions; multiple misfiring cylinders need not be uniquely identified 
if a distinct multiple misfire fault code is stored.
    (3) A fault code shall be stored when the emission control system 
reverts to a default or secondary mode of operation.
    (4) The diagnostic system may erase a fault code if the same fault 
is not re-registered in at least 40 engine warm-up cycles, and the 
malfunction indicator light (see paragraph (d) of this section) is not 
illuminated for that fault code.
    (f) Available Diagnostic Signals. (1) Upon determination of the 
first malfunction of any component or system, ``freeze frame'' engine 
conditions present at the time shall be stored in computer memory. 
Should a subsequent fuel system or misfire malfunction occur, any 
previously stored freeze frame conditions shall be replaced by the fuel 
system or misfire conditions (whichever occurs first). Stored engine 
conditions shall include, but are not limited to: Engine speed, open or 
closed loop operation, fuel system commands, coolant temperature, 
calculated load value, fuel pressure, vehicle speed, air flow rate, and 
intake manifold pressure if the information needed to determine these 
conditions is available to the computer. For freeze frame storage, the 
manufacturer shall include the most appropriate set of conditions to 
facilitate effective repairs. If the fault code causing the conditions 
to be stored is erased in accordance with paragraph (c) of this section, 
the stored engine conditions may also be erased.
    (2) The following signals in addition to the required freeze frame 
information shall be made available on demand through the serial port on 
the standardized data link connector, if the information is available to 
the on-board computer or can be determined using information available 
to the on-board computer: Diagnostic trouble codes, engine coolant 
temperature, fuel control system status (closed loop, open loop, other), 
fuel trim, ignition timing advance, intake air temperature, manifold air 
pressure, air flow rate, engine RPM, throttle position sensor output 
value, secondary air status (upstream, downstream, or atmosphere), 
calculated load value, vehicle speed, and fuel pressure. The signals 
shall be provided in standard units based on SAE specifications 
incorporated by reference in paragraph (h) of this section. Actual 
signals shall be clearly identified separately from default value or 
limp home signals. In addition, the capability to perform bi-directional 
diagnostic control based on SAE specifications shall be made available 
on demand through the serial port on the standardized data link 
connector per SAE specifications as referenced in paragraph (h) of this 
section.
    (3) For all emission control components and systems for which 
specific

[[Page 236]]

on-board evaluation tests are conducted (catalyst, oxygen sensor, etc.), 
the results of the most recent test performed by the vehicle, and the 
limits to which the system is compared shall be available through the 
data link per SAE J1979 specifications as referenced in paragraph (h) of 
this section beginning no later than the 1997 model year. The 
Administrator may allow a pass/fail indication for the most recent test 
results for those monitored components and systems for which such an 
indication is more appropriate (e.g., misfire detection, fuel system 
monitoring, etc.).
    (4) The OBD requirements to which the vehicle is certified (i.e., 
California OBD II or Federal OBD), and the major emission control 
systems monitored by the OBD system consistent with paragraph (h)(3) of 
this section, shall be available through the serial data port on the 
standardized data link connector per SAE specifications as referenced in 
paragraph (h) of this section.
    (g) The emission control diagnostic system is not required to 
evaluate components during malfunction conditions if such evaluation 
would result in a risk to safety or component failure.
    (h) The emission control diagnostic system shall provide for 
standardized access and conform with the following Society of Automotive 
Engineers (SAE) standards. The following SAE documents are incorporated 
by reference. This incorporation by reference was approved by the 
Director of the Federal Register in accordance with 5 U.S.C. 552(a) and 
1 CFR part 51. Copies of the SAE documents may be obtained from the 
Society of Automotive Engineers, Inc., 400 Commonwealth Drive, 
Warrendale, PA 15096-0001. Copies may be inspected at Docket No. A-90-35 
at EPA's Air docket (LE-131), room 1500 M, 1st Floor, Waterside Mall, 
401 M Street, SW., Washington, DC, or at the Office of the Federal 
Register, 800 North Capitol Street, NW., suite 700, Washington, DC.
    (1) SAE J1850 ``Class B Data Communication Network Interface,'' 
(AUG91) shall be used as the on-board to off-board communications 
protocol. All emission related messages sent to the scan tool over a 
J1850 data link shall use the Cyclic Redundancy Check and the three byte 
header, and shall not use inter-byte separation or checksums.
    (2) Basic diagnostic data (as specified in Sec. 86.094-17(f)) shall 
be provided in the format and units in SAE J1979 ``E/E Diagnostic Test 
Modes,'' (DEC91). Basic bi-directional diagnostic capability shall be 
available and be consistent with SAE J1979 messages.
    (3) Fault codes shall be consistent with SAE J2012 ``Recommended 
Format and Messages for Diagnostic Trouble Code Definitions,'' (MAR92) 
Part C.
    (4) The connection interface between the OBD system and test 
equipment and diagnostic tools shall meet the functional requirements of 
SAE J1962 ``Diagnostic Connector,'' (JUN92).
    (5) Limitation of Access--Any limitation of access to the diagnostic 
system shall be consistent with Sec. 86.094-18. Access to vehicle 
calibration data, vehicle odometer, and keyless entry codes can be 
limited under the provisions of Sec. 86.094.
    (i) Upon application by the manufacturer, the Administrator may 
either waive the requirements of this section for specific components of 
any class or category of light-duty vehicles or light-duty trucks for 
model years 1994 or 1995 (or both), or through the 1999 model year, the 
Administrator may accept an OBD system as compliant even though specific 
requirements are not fully met. Such waivers or compliances without 
meeting specific requirements will be granted only if compliance would 
be infeasible or unreasonable considering such factors as, but not 
limited to, technical feasibility, lead time and production cycles 
including phase-in or phase-out of engines or vehicle designs and 
programmed upgrades of computers, and if any unmet requirements are not 
carried over from the previous model year except where unreasonable 
hardware modifications would be necessary to correct the non-compliance, 
and the manufacturer has demonstrated an acceptable level of effort 
toward compliance as determined by the Administrator. For alternate 
fueled vehicles (i.e. natural gas, liquefied petroleum gas, or 
methanol), beginning with the model year for which alternate fuel 
emission standards are

[[Page 237]]

applicable and extending through the 1999 model year, manufacturers may 
request the Administrator to waive specific monitoring requirements of 
this section for which monitoring may not be reliable with respect to 
the use of the alternate fuel. At a minimum, all vehicles covered by 
this section, including those receiving a waiver as described in this 
paragraph, shall be equipped with an OBD system meeting either the 
California OBD I requirements, or some acceptable portion of the 
California OBD II or federal OBD requirements as specified in this 
section, except that for the 1994 and 1995 model years EPA may grant a 
waiver to a system less than OBD I giving consideration to such factors 
as manufacturer projections of very low sales volume for an engine 
family (e.g., 5000 or less), scheduled phase-out of significant engine 
technology with the 1994 or 1995 model years for that engine family, and 
whether or not the engine, or any similar engine within the 
manufacturer's product line, has ever been equipped with an OBD I or 
similar OBD system.
    (j) Demonstration of compliance with California OBD II requirements 
(Title 13 California Code section 1968.1)as modified pursuant to 
California Mail Out 95-34 (September 26, 1995), shall satisfy the 
requirements of this section through the 1998 model year except that 
compliance with Title 13 California Code section 1968.1(d), pertaining 
to tampering protection, is not required to satisfy the requirements of 
this section.

Sec. 86.094-21  Application for certification.

    (a) A separate application for a certificate of conformity shall be 
made for each set of standards (or family emission limits, as 
appropriate) and each class of new motor vehicles or new motor vehicle 
engines. Such application shall be made to the Administrator by the 
manufacturer and shall be updated and corrected by amendment.
    (b) The application shall be in writing, signed by an authorized 
representative of the manufacturer, and shall include the following:
    (1)(i) Identification and description of the vehicles (or engines) 
covered by the application and a description of their engine (vehicles 
only), emission control system, and fuel system components. This 
description will include:
    (A) A detailed description of each Auxiliary Emission Control Device 
(AECD) to be installed in or on any vehicle (or engine) covered by the 
application;
    (B) A detailed justification of each AECD (described in (b)(1)(i)(A) 
of this section) which results in a reduction in effectiveness of the 
emission control system. Such a justification may be disapproved by 
consideration of currently available technology, whereupon the 
application for certification may be disapproved under Sec. 86.094-22(b) 
for the incorporation of a defeat device;
    (C) The manufacturer must submit a Statement of Compliance in the 
application for certification which attests to the fact that they have 
assured themselves that the engine family is designed to be within the 
intermediate temperature cold testing defeat device guidance as 
described in Sec. 86.094-16.
    (1) This Statement of Compliance will be supported by a brief 
description of the vehicle's technological method of controlling CO 
emissions at intermediate temperatures.
    (2) The manufacturer will determine a method (e.g., a test program, 
an engineering evaluation) which is adequate to support their Statement 
of Compliance. The manufacturer will support this Statement with a brief 
summary of the chosen method. Further details must be made available 
upon the Administrator's request.
    (ii)(A) The manufacturer shall provide to the Administrator in the 
application for certification:
    (1) A list of those parameters which are physically capable of being 
adjusted (including those adjustable parameters for which access is 
difficult) and that, if adjusted to settings other than the 
manufacturer's recommended setting, may affect emissions;
    (2) A specification of the manufacturer's intended physically 
adjustable

[[Page 238]]

range of each such parameter, and the production tolerances of the 
limits or stops used to establish the physically adjustable range;
    (3) A description of the limits or stops used to establish the 
manufacturer's intended physically adjustable range of each adjustable 
parameter, or any other means used to inhibit adjustment;
    (4) The nominal or recommended setting, and the associated 
production tolerances, for each such parameter.
    (B) The manufacturer may provide, in the application for 
certification, information relating to why certain parameters are not 
expected to be adjusted in actual use and to why the physical limits or 
stops used to establish the physically adjustable range of each 
parameter, or any other means used to inhibit adjustment, are effective 
in preventing adjustment of parameters on in-use vehicles to settings 
outside the manufacturer's intended physically adjustable ranges. This 
may include results of any tests to determine the difficulty of gaining 
access to an adjustment or exceeding a limit as intended or recommended 
by the manufacturer.
    (C) The Administrator may require to be provided detailed drawings 
and descriptions of the various emission related components, and/or 
hardware samples of such components, for the purpose of making his 
determination of which vehicle or engine parameter will be subject to 
adjustment for new certification and Selective Enforcement Audit testing 
and of the physically adjustable range for each such vehicle or engine 
parameter.
    (2) Projected U.S. sales data sufficient to enable the Administrator 
to select a test fleet representative of the vehicles (or engines) for 
which certification is requested, and, for model year 1994 through 1995 
light-duty vehicles and light light-duty trucks and model year 1996 
heavy light-duty trucks, data sufficient to determine projected 
compliance with the Tier 1 standards implementation schedules of 
Secs. 86.094-8 and 86.094-9. The data shall also include the altitude of 
intended sale for model year 1994 light-duty trucks certified to the 
Tier 0 standards of Sec. 86.094-9. Volume projected to be produced for 
U.S. sale may be used in lieu of projected U.S. sales.

of the test procedures to be used to establish the evaporative emission 
deterioration factors required to be determined and supplied in 
Sec. 86.094-23(b)(2).
    (ii) For heavy-duty vehicles equipped with gasoline-fueled or 
methanol-fueled engines, the Administrator does not assume that each 
evaporative emission family-evaporative emission control system 
combination will deteriorate in a unique manner during the useful life 
of the vehicle. The manufacturer shall therefore identify those 
evaporative emission deterioration factors which shall be applied to the 
various evaporative emission family-evaporative emission control system 
combinations which are expected to exhibit similar deterioration 
characteristics during the useful life of the vehicle.
    (5)(i)(A) A description of the test procedures to be used to 
establish the durability data or the exhaust emission deterioration

under paragraph (f) of this section, a statement of that alternative 
period and a brief synopsis of the justification.
    (ii) For heavy-duty diesel engine families, a statement of the 
primary intended service class (light, medium, or heavy) and an 
explanation as to why that service class was selected. Each diesel 
engine family shall be certified under one primary intended service 
class only. After reviewing the guidance in Sec. 86.090-2, the class 
shall be determined on the basis of which class best represents the 
majority of the sales of that engine family.
    (iii)(A) For each light-duty vehicle engine family, each light-duty

submitting the new limit(s) to the Administrator and by demonstrating 
compliance with the limit(s) as described in Secs. 86.090-2 and 86.094-
28(b)(5)(i).
    (ii) NOx averaging. (A) If the manufacturer elects to 
participate in the NOX averaging program for light-duty 
trucks or the NOX averaging program for heavy-duty engines, 
the application must list the family NOX emission limit and 
the projected U.S. production volume of the family for the model year.
    (B) The manufacturer shall choose the level of the family 
NOX emission limits, accurate to one-tenth of a gram per mile 
or to one-tenth of a gram per brake horsepower-hour for heavy-duty 
engines.
    (C) The manufacturer may at any time during production elect to

    (f) Light-duty truck and heavy-duty engine manufacturers who believe 
that the useful life periods of Sec. 86.094-2 are significantly 
unrepresentative for one or more engine families (either too long or too 
short), may petition the Administrator to provide an alternative useful-
life period. This petition must include the full rationale behind the 
request together with any supporting data and other evidence. Based on 
this or other information the Administrator may assign an alternative 
useful-life period. Any petition should be submitted in a timely manner, 
to allow adequate time for a thorough evaluation. For model year 1994 
and later light-duty trucks not subject to the Tier 0 standards of 
Sec. 86.094-9, alternative useful life periods will be granted only for 
THC, THCE, and idle CO requirements.

Sec. 86.094-22  Approval of application for certification; test fleet selections;
          determinations of parameters subject to adjustment for certification and 

          Selective Enforcement Audit, adequacy of limits, and 
          physically adjustable ranges.

    (a) After a review of the application for certification and any 
other information which the Administrator may require, the Administrator 
may approve the application and select a test fleet in accordance with 
Sec. 86.094-24.
    (b) Disapproval of application. (1) The Administrator may disapprove 
in whole or in part an application for certification for reasons 
including incompleteness, inaccuracy, inappropriate proposed mileage (or 
service) accumulation procedures, test equipment, or fuel; or 
incorporation of defeat devices in vehicles (or on engines) described by 
the application.
    (2) The issuance of a certificate of conformity does not exempt the 
covered vehicles from further evaluation or testing for defeat device 
purposes as described in Sec. 86.094-16.
    (c) Where any part of an application is rejected, the Administrator 
shall notify the manufacturer in writing and set forth the reasons for 
such rejection. Within 30 days following receipt of such notification, 
the manufacturer may request a hearing on the Administrator's 
determination. The request shall be in writing, signed by an authorized 
representative of the manufacturer and shall include a statement 
specifying the manufacturer's objections to the Administrator's 
determinations, and data in support of such objections. If, after the 
review of the request and supporting data, the Administrator finds that 
the request raises a substantial factual issue, he shall provide the 
manufacturer a hearing in accordance with Sec. 86.078-6 with respect to 
such issue.
    (d) Approval of test procedures. (1) The Administrator does not 
approve the test procedures for establishing the

[[Page 241]]

evaporative emission deterioration factors for light-duty vehicles and 
light-duty trucks. The manufacturer shall submit the procedures as 
required in Sec. 86.094-21(b)(4)(i) prior to the Administrator's 
selection of the test fleet under Sec. 86.094-24(b)(1), and if such 
procedures will involve testing of durability data vehicles selected by 
the Administrator or elected by the manufacturer under Sec. 86.094-
24(c)(1), prior to initiation of such testing.
    (2) Light-duty trucks using the Standard Self-Approval durability 
Program and heavy-duty engines only. The Administrator does not approve 
the test procedures for establishing exhaust emission deterioration 
factors for light-duty trucks using the Standard Self-Approval 
Durability Program described in Sec. 86.094-13(f) nor for heavy-duty 
engines. The manufacturer shall submit these procedures and 
determinations as required in Sec. 86.094-21(b)(5)(i) prior to 
determining the deterioration factors.
    (3) Heavy-duty vehicles equipped with gasoline-fueled or methanol-
fueled engines only. The Administrator does not approve the test 
procedures for establishing the evaporative emission deterioration 
factors. The test procedure will conform to the requirements in 
Sec. 86.094-23(b)(3).
    (e) Parameter adjustment requirements. When the Administrator 
selects emission data vehicles for the test fleet, he will at the same 
time determine those vehicle or engine parameters which will be subject 
to adjustment for certification, Selective Enforcement Audit and 
Production Compliance Audit testing, the adequacy of the limits, stops, 
seals, or other means used to inhibit adjustment, and the resulting 
physically adjustable ranges for each such parameter and will then 
notify the manufacturer of his determinations.
    (1) Determining parameters subject to adjustment. (i) Except as 
noted in paragraph (e)(1)(iv) of this section, the Administrator may 
determine to be subject to adjustment the idle fuel-air mixture 
parameter on Otto-cycle vehicles (or engines) (carbureted or fuel-
injected); the choke valve action parameter(s) on carbureted, Otto-cycle 
vehicles (or engines); or any parameter on any vehicle (or engine) 
(Otto-cycle or diesel) which is physically capable of being adjusted, 
may significantly affect emissions, and was not present on the 
manufacturer's vehicles (or engines) in the previous model year in the 
same form and function.
    (ii) The Administrator may, in addition, determine to be subject to 
adjustment any other parameters on any vehicle or engine which is 
physically capable of being adjusted and which may significantly affect 
emissions. However, the Administrator may do so only if he has 
previously notified the manufacturer that he might do so and has found, 
at the time he gave this notice, that the intervening period would be 
adequate to permit the development and application of the requisite 
technology, giving appropriate consideration to the cost of compliance 
within such period. In no event will this notification be given later 
than September 1 of the calendar year two years prior to the model year.
    (iii) In determining the parameters subject to adjustment, the 
Administrator will consider the likelihood that, for each of the 
parameters listed in paragraphs (e)(1) (i) and (ii) of this section, 
settings other than the manufacturer's recommended setting will occur on 
in-use vehicles (or engines). In determining likelihood, the 
Administrator may consider such factors as, but not limited to, 
information contained in the preliminary application, surveillance 
information from similar in-use vehicles (or engines), the difficulty 
and cost of gaining access to an adjustment, damage to the vehicle (or 
engine) if an attempt is made to gain such access and the need to 
replace parts following such attempt, and the effect of settings other 
than the manufacturer's recommended setting on vehicle (or engine) 
performance characteristics including emission characteristics.
    (iv) Manual chokes of heavy-duty engines only will not be considered 
a parameter subject to adjustment under the parameter adjustment 
requirements.
    (2)(i) The Administrator shall determine a parameter to be 
adequately inaccessible or sealed if:
    (A) In the case of an idle mixture screw, the screw is recessed 
within the

[[Page 242]]

carburetor casting and sealed with lead, thermosetting plastic, or an 
inverted elliptical spacer or sheared off after adjustment at the 
factory, and the inaccessibility is such that the screw cannot be 
accessed and/or adjusted with simple tools in one-half hour or for $20 
(1978 dollars) or less;
    (B) In the case of a choke bimetal spring, the plate covering the 
bimetal spring is riveted or welded in place, or held in place with 
nonreversible screws;
    (C) In the case of a parameter which may be adjusted by elongating 
or bending adjustable members (e.g., the choke vacuum break), the 
elongation of the adjustable member is limited by design or, in the case 
of a bendable member, the member is constructed of a material which when 
bent would return to its original shape after the force is removed 
(plastic or spring steel materials);
    (D) In the case of any parameter, the manufacturer demonstrates that 
adjusting the parameter to settings other than the manufacturer's 
recommended setting takes more than one-half hour or costs more than $20 
(1978 dollars).
    (ii) The Administrator shall determine a physical limit or stop to 
be an adequate restraint on adjustability if:
    (A) In the case of a threaded adjustment, the threads are 
terminated, pinned, or crimped so as to prevent additional travel 
without breakage or need for repairs which take more than one-half hour 
or cost more than $20 (1978 dollars);
    (B) The adjustment is ineffective at the end of the limits of travel 
regardless of additional forces or torques applied to the adjustment;
    (C) The manufacturer demonstrates that travel or rotation limits 
cannot be exceeded with the use of simple and inexpensive tools 
(screwdriver, pliers, open-end or box wrenches, etc.) without incurring 
significant and costly damage to the vehicle (or engine) or control 
system or without taking more than one-half hour or costing more than 
$20 (1978 dollars).
    (iii) If manufacturer service manuals or bulletins describe routine 
procedures for gaining access to a parameter or for removing or 
exceeding a physical limit, stop, seal or other means used to inhibit 
adjustment, or if surveillance data indicate that gaining access, 
removing, or exceeding is likely, paragraphs (e)(2)(i) and (ii) of this 
section shall not apply for that parameter.
    (iv) In determining the adequacy of a physical limit, stop, seal, or 
other means used to inhibit adjustment of a parameter not covered by 
paragraph (e)(2)(i) or (ii) of this section, the Administrator will 
consider the likelihood that it will be circumvented, removed, or 
exceeded on in-use vehicles. In determining likelihood, the 
Administrator may consider such factors as, but not limited to, 
information contained in the preliminary application; surveillance 
information from similar in-use vehicles (or engines); the difficulty 
and cost of circumventing, removing, or exceeding the limit, stop, seal, 
or other means; damage to the vehicle (or engine) if an attempt is made 
to circumvent, remove, or exceed it and the need to replace parts 
following such attempt; and the effect of settings beyond the limit, 
stop, seal, or other means on vehicle (or engine) performance 
characteristics other than emission characteristics.
    (3) The Administrator shall determine two physically adjustable 
ranges for each parameter subject to adjustment:
    (i)(A) In the case of a parameter determined to be adequately 
inaccessible or sealed, the Administrator may include within the 
physically adjustable range applicable to testing under this subpart 
(certification testing) all settings within the production tolerance 
associated with the nominal setting for that parameter, as specified by 
the manufacturer in the preliminary application for certification; or
    (B) In the case of other parameters, the Administrator shall include 
within this range all settings within physical limits or stops 
determined to be adequate restraints on adjustability. The Administrator 
may also include the production tolerances on the location of these 
limits or stops when determining the physically adjustable range.
    (ii)(A) In the case of a parameter determined to be adequately 
inaccessible or sealed, the Administrator shall include within the 
physically adjustable

[[Page 243]]

range applicable to testing under subparts G or K (Selective Enforcement 
Audit and Production Compliance Audit) only the actual settings to which 
the parameter is adjusted during production; or
    (B) In the case of other parameters, the Administrator shall include 
within this range all settings within physical limits or stops 
determined to be adequate restraints on adjustability, as they are 
actually located on the test vehicle (or engine).
    (f) Submittal of advance information. (1) If the manufacturer 
submits the information specified in Sec. 86.094-21(b)(1)(ii) in advance 
of its full preliminary application for certification, the Administrator 
shall review the information and make the determinations required in 
paragraph (e) of this section within 90 days of the manufacturer's 
submittal.
    (2) The 90-day decision period is exclusive of the elapsed time 
during which EPA may request additional information from manufacturers 
regarding an adjustable parameter and the receipt of the manufacturers' 
response(s).
    (g) Within 30 days following receipt of notification of the 
Administrator's determinations made under paragraph (e) of this section, 
the manufacturer may request a hearing on the Administrator's 
determinations. The request shall be in writing, signed by an authorized 
representative of the manufacturer, and shall include a statement 
specifying the manufacturer's objections to the Administrator's 
determinations, and data in support of such objections. If, after review 
of the request and supporting data, the Administrator finds that the 
request raises a substantial factual issue, he shall provide the 
manufacturer a hearing in accordance with Sec. 86.078-6 with respect to 
such issue.

    (ii) For heavy-duty diesel engines, a manufacturer may submit hot-
start data only, in accordance with subpart N of this part, when making 
application for certification. However, for conformity Selective 
Enforcement Audit and recall testing by the Agency, both the cold-start 
and hot-start test data, as specified in subpart N of this part, will be 
included in the official results.
    (d) The manufacturer shall submit a statement that the vehicles (or 
engines) for which certification is requested conform to the 
requirements in Sec. 86.084-5(b), and that the descriptions of tests 
performed to ascertain compliance with the general standards in 
Sec. 86.084-5(b), and that the data derived from such tests are 
available to the Administrator upon request.
    (e)(1) The manufacturer shall submit a statement that the test 
vehicles (or test engines) for which data are submitted to demonstrate 
compliance with the applicable standards (or family emission limits, as 
appropriate) of this subpart are in all material respects as described 
in the manufacturer's application for certification, that they have been 
tested in accordance with the applicable test procedures utilizing the 
fuels and equipment described in the application for certification, and 
that on the basis of such tests the vehicles (or engines) conform to the 
requirements of this part. If such statements cannot be made with 
respect to any vehicle (or engine) tested, the vehicle (or engine) shall 
be identified, and all pertinent data relating thereto shall be supplied 
to the Administrator. If, on the basis of the data supplied and any 
additional data as required by the Administrator, the Administrator 
determines that the test vehicles (or test engine) was not as described 
in the application for certification or was not tested in accordance 
with the applicable test procedures utilizing the fuels and equipment as 
described in the application for certification, the Administrator may

Sec. 86.094-24  Test vehicles and engines.

    (a) General. Paragraph (a) of this section applies to the grouping 
of vehicles or engines into families.
    (1) The vehicles or engines covered by an application for 
certification will be divided into groupings of engines which are 
expected to have similar emission characteristics throughout their 
useful life. Each group of engines with similar emission characteristics 
shall be defined as a separate engine family.
    (2) To be classed in the same engine family, engines must be 
identical in all the respects listed in paragraphs (a)(2) (i) through 
(x) of this section.
    (i) The cylinder bore center-to-center dimensions.
    (ii)-(iii) [Reserved]
    (iv) The cylinder block configuration (air-cooled or water-cooled: 
L-6, 90 deg., V-8, etc.).
    (v) The location of the intake and exhaust valves (or ports).
    (vi) The method of air aspiration.
    (vii) The combustion cycle.
    (viii) Catalytic converter characteristics.
    (ix) Thermal reactor characteristics.
    (x) Type of air inlet cooler (e.g., intercoolers and after-coolers) 
for diesel heavy-duty engines.
    (3)(i) Engines identical in all the respects listed in paragraph 
(a)(2) of this section may be further divided into different engine 
families if the Administrator determines that they may be expected to 
have different emission characteristics. This determination will be 
based upon a consideration of the features of each engine listed in 
paragraphs (a)(3)(i) (A) through (G) of this section.
    (A) The bore and stroke.

[[Page 248]]

    (B) The surface-to-volume ratio of the nominally dimensioned 
cylinder at the top dead center positions.
    (C) The intake manifold induction port sizes and configuration.
    (D) The exhaust manifold port size and configuration.
    (E) The intake and exhaust valve sizes.
    (F) The fuel system.
    (G) The camshaft timing and ignition or injection timing 
characteristics.
    (ii) Light-duty trucks and heavy-duty engines produced in different 
model years and distinguishable in the respects listed in paragraph 
(a)(2) of this section shall be treated as belonging to a single engine 
family if the Administrator requires it, after determining that the 
engines may be expected to have similar emission deterioration 
characteristics.
    (iii) Engines identical in all of the respects listed in paragraphs 
(a)(2) and (a)(3)(i) of this section may be further divided into 
different engine families if some of the engines are expected to be sold 
as clean-fuel vehicles under 40 CFR part 88, and if the manufacturer 
chooses to certify the engines to both the clean-fuel vehicle standards 
of 40 CFR part 88 and the general standards of this part 86. One engine 
family shall include engines that are intended for general use. For this 
engine family, only the provisions of this part 86 shall apply. The 
second engine family shall include all engines that are intended to be 
used in clean-fuel vehicles. For this engine family, the provisions of 
both this part 86 and 40 CFR part 88 shall apply. The manufacturer may 
submit one set of data to certify both engine families.
    (4) Where engines are of a type which cannot be divided into engine 
families based upon the criteria listed in paragraphs (a)(2) and (a)(3) 
of this section, the Administrator will establish families for those 
engines based upon those features most related to their emission 
characteristics. Engines that are eligible to be included in the same 
engine family based on the criteria in paragraphs (a)(2) and (a)(3)(i) 
of this section may be further divided into different engine families if 
the manufacturer determines that they may be expected to have different 
emission characteristics, or if the manufacturer chooses to certify the 
engines to both the clean-fuel vehicle standards of 40 CFR part 88 and 
the general standards of this part 86 as described in paragraph 
(a)(3)(iii) of this section. The determination of the emission 
characteristics will be based upon a consideration of the following 
features of each engine:
    (i) The dimension from the center line of the crankshaft to the 
center line of the camshaft.
    (ii) The dimension from the center line of the crankshaft to the top 
of the cylinder block head face.
    (iii) The size of the intake and exhaust valves (or ports).
    (5) Light-duty vehicles and light-duty trucks covered by an 
application for certification will be divided into groupings (e.g., by 
fuel type) which are expected to have similar evaporative emission 
characteristics throughout their useful life. Each group of vehicles 
with similar evaporative emission characteristics shall be defined as a 
separate evaporative emission family.
    (6) For light-duty vehicles and light-duty trucks to be classed in 
the same evaporative emission family, vehicles must be similar with 
respect to:
    (i) Type of vapor storage device (e.g., canister, air cleaner, 
crankcase).
    (ii) Basic canister design.
    (iii) Fuel system.
    (iv) Fuel type.
    (7) Where vehicles are of a type which cannot be divided into 
evaporative emission families based on the criteria listed in paragraph 
(a)(2) of this section, the Administrator will establish families for 
those vehicles based upon the features most related to their evaporative 
emission characteristics.
    (8)(i) If the manufacturer elects to participate in the Production 
AMA Durability Program, the engine families covered by an application 
for certification shall be grouped based upon similar engine design and 
emission control system characteristics. Each of these groups shall 
constitute a separate engine family group.
    (ii) To be classed in the same engine family group, engine families 
must contain engines identical in all of the respects listed in 
paragraphs (a)(8)(ii) (A) through (D) of this section.
    (A) The combustion cycle.

[[Page 249]]

    (B) The cylinder block configuration (air-cooled or water-cooled: L-
6, V-8, rotary, etc.).
    (C) Displacement (engines of different displacement within 50 cubic 
inches or 15 percent of the largest displacement and contained within a 
multidisplacement engine family will be included in the same engine 
family group).
    (D) Catalytic converter usage and basic type (noncatalyst, oxidation 
catalyst only, three-way catalyst equipped).
    (9) Engine families identical in all respects listed in paragraph 
(a)(8) of this section may be further divided into different engine 
family groups if the Administrator determines that they are expected to 
have significantly different exhaust emission control system 
deterioration characteristics.
    (10) A manufacturer may request the Administrator to include in an 
engine family group engine families in addition to those grouped under 
the provisions of paragraph (a)(8) of this section. This request must be 
accompanied by information the manufacturer believes supports the 
inclusion of these additional engine families.
    (11) A manufacturer may combine into a single engine family group 
those light-duty vehicle and light-duty truck engine families which 
otherwise meet the requirements of paragraphs (a) (8) through (10) of 
this section.
    (12) Vehicles powered by heavy-duty engines covered by an 
application for certification and using fuels for which there is an 
applicable evaporative emission standard will be divided into groupings 
of vehicles on the basis of physical features, including fuel type, 
which are expected to affect evaporative emissions. Each group of 
vehicles with similar features shall be defined as a separate 
evaporative emission family.
    (13) For vehicles equipped with heavy-duty engines using fuels for 
which there are applicable evaporative emission standards to be classed 
in the same evaporative emission family, vehicles must be identical with 
respect to:
    (i) Method of fuel/air metering (i.e., carburetion versus fuel 
injection).
    (ii) Carburetor bowl fuel volume, within a 10 cc range.
    (iii) Fuel type.
    (14) For vehicles equipped with heavy-duty engines using fuels for 
which there are applicable evaporative emission standards to be classed 
in the same evaporative emission control system family, vehicles must be 
identical with respect to:
    (i) Method of vapor storage.
    (ii) Method of carburetor sealing.
    (iii) Method of air cleaner sealing.
    (iv) Vapor storage working capacity, within a 20g range.
    (v) Number of storage devices.
    (vi) Method of purging stored vapors.
    (vii) Method of venting the carburetor during both engine off and 
engine operation.
    (viii) Liquid fuel hose material.
    (ix) Vapor storage material.
    (15) Where vehicles equipped with heavy-duty engines using fuels for 
which there are applicable evaporative emission standards and which 
cannot be divided into evaporative emission family-control system 
combinations based on the criteria listed above, the Administrator will 
establish evaporative emission family-control system combinations for 
those vehicles based on features most related to their evaporative 
emission characteristics.
    (b) Emission data--(1) Light-duty vehicles and light-duty trucks. 
Paragraph (b)(1) of this section applies to light-duty vehicle and 
light-duty truck emission data vehicles.
    (i) Vehicles will be chosen to be operated and tested for emission 
data based upon engine family groupings. Within each engine family, one 
test vehicle will be selected based on the criterion that the 
Administrator shall select the vehicle with the heaviest equivalent test 
weight (including options) within the family. If more than one vehicle 
meets this criterion, then within that vehicle grouping the 
Administrator shall select, in the order listed, the highest road-load 
power, largest displacement, the transmission with the highest numerical 
final gear ratio (including overdrive), the highest numerical axle ratio 
offered in that engine family, and the maximum fuel flow calibration

[[Page 250]]

    (ii) The Administrator shall select one additional test vehicle from 
within each engine family. The additional vehicle selected shall be the 
vehicle expected to exhibit the highest emissions of those vehicles 
remaining in the engine family. If all vehicles within the engine family 
are similar the Administrator may waive the requirements of this 
paragraph.
    (iii) Within an engine family and exhaust emission control system, 
the manufacturer may alter any emission data vehicle (or other vehicles 
such as current or previous model year emission data vehicles, fuel 
economy data vehicles, and development vehicles provided they meet 
emission data vehicles' protocol) to represent more than one selection 
under paragraph (b)(1) (i), (ii), (iv), or (vii) of this section.
    (iv) If the vehicles selected in accordance with paragraphs (b)(1) 
(i) and (ii) of this section do not represent each engine-system 
combination, then one vehicle of each engine-system combination not 
represented will be selected by the Administrator. The vehicle selected 
shall be the vehicle expected to exhibit the highest emissions of those 
vehicles remaining in the engine family.
    (v) For high-altitude exhaust emission compliance for each engine 
family, the manufacturer shall follow one of the procedures described in 
paragraphs (b)(1)(v) (A) and (B) of this section.
    (A) The manufacturer will select for testing under high-altitude 
conditions the vehicle expected to exhibit the highest emissions from 
the nonexempt vehicles selected in accordance with paragraphs (b)(1) 
(ii), (iii), and (iv) of this section; or
    (B) In lieu of testing vehicles according to paragraph (b)(1)(v)(A) 
of this section, a manufacturer may provide a statement in its 
application for certification, based on the manufacturer's engineering 
evaluation of such high altitude emission testing as the manufacturer 
deems appropriate,

high-altitude locations comply with the high-altitude emission 
requirements and that all light-duty trucks sold at low altitude, which 
are not exempt under Sec. 86.094-9(h), are capable of being modified to 
meet high-altitude standards.
    (vi) If 90 percent or more of the engine family sales will be in 
California, a manufacturer may substitute emission data vehicles 
selected by the California Air Resources Board criteria for the 
selections specified in paragraphs (b)(1) (i), (ii), and (iv) of this 
section.
    (vii) Vehicles will be chosen to be operated and tested for 
evaporative emission data based upon evaporative emission family 
groupings as defined in paragraphs (a) (12) through (15) of this 
section.
    (A) Vehicles of each evaporative emission family will be divided 
into evaporative emission control systems.
    (B) The Administrator will select the vehicle expected to exhibit 
the highest evaporative emissions from within each evaporative family to 
be certified. This vehicle is selected from among the vehicles 
represented by the exhaust emission data selections for the engine 
family, unless evaporative testing has already been completed for the 
vehicle expected to exhibit the highest evaporative emissions for the 
evaporative family as part of another engine family's testing.
    (C) If the vehicles selected in accordance with paragraph 
(b)(1)(vii)(B) of this section do not represent each evaporative 
emission control system then the Administrator will select the highest 
expected evaporative emission vehicle from within the unrepresented 
evaporative system.
    (viii) For high-altitude evaporative emission compliance for each 
evaporative emission family, the manufacturer shall follow one of the 
procedures described in paragraphs (b)(1)(viii) (A) and (B) of this 
section.
    (A) The manufacturer will select for testing under high-altitude 
conditions the one nonexempt vehicle previously selected under paragraph

torque, the engine with the most advanced spark timing, no EGR or lowest 
EGR flow, and no air pump or lowest actual flow air pump.
    (B) The Administrator shall select one additional engine, from 
within each engine family. The engine selected shall be the engine 
expected to exhibit the highest emissions of those engines remaining in 
the engine family. If all engines within the engine family are similar 
the Administrator may waive the requirements of this paragraph.
    (iv) If the engines selected in accordance with paragraphs (b)(2) 
(ii) and (iii) of this section do not represent each engine 
displacement-exhaust emission control system combination, then one 
engine of each engine displacement-exhaust emission control system 
combination not represented shall be selected by the Administrator.
    (v) Within an engine family/displacement/control system combination, 
the manufacturer may alter any emission data engine (or other engine 
including current or previous model year emission data engines and 
development engines provided they meet the emission data engines' 
protocol) to represent more than one selection under paragraph 
(b)(2)(iii) of this section.
    (3) Diesel heavy-duty emission data engines. Paragraph (b)(3) of 
this section applies to diesel heavy-duty emission data vehicles.

first. Within each combination, the engine that features the highest 
fuel feed per stroke, primarily at the speed of maximum rated torque and 
secondarily at rated speed, will usually be selected. If there are 
military engines with higher fuel rates than other engines in the same 
engine system combinations, then one military engine shall also be 
selected. The engine with the highest fuel feed per stroke will usually 
be selected.
    (iii) The Administrator may select a maximum of one additional 
engine within each engine-system combination based upon features 
indicating that it may have the highest emission levels of the engines 
of that combination. In selecting this engine, the Administrator will 
consider such features as the injection system, fuel system, compression 
ratio, rated speed, rated horsepower, peak torque speed, and peak 
torque.
    (iv) Within an engine family control system combination, the 
manufacturer may alter any emission data engine (or other engine 
including current or previous model year emission data engines and 
development engines provided they meet the emission data engines' 
protocol) to represent more than one selection under paragraphs (b)(3)

will be designated by the Administrator as to transmission type, fuel 
system, inertia weight class, and test weight.
    (ii) A manufacturer may elect to operate and test additional 
vehicles to represent any engine-system combination. The additional 
vehicles must be of the same engine displacement, transmission type, 
fuel system and inertia weight class as the vehicle selected for that 
engine-system combination in accordance with the provisions of paragraph 
(c)(1)(i) of this section. Notice of an intent to operate and test 
additional vehicles shall be given to the Administrator no later than 30 
days following notification of the test fleet selection.
    (2) Light-duty trucks. Paragraph (c)(2) of this section applies to 
vehicles, engines, subsystems, or components used to establish exhaust 
emission deterioration factors for light-duty trucks.
    (i) The manufacturer shall select the vehicles, engines, subsystems, 
or components to be used to determine exhaust emission deterioration 
factors for each engine-family control system combination. Whether 
vehicles, engines, subsystems, or components are used, they shall be 
selected so that their emissions deterioration characteristics may be 
expected to represent those of in-use vehicles, based on good 
engineering judgment.

represent those of in-use engines, based on good engineering judgment.
    (ii) [Reserved]
    (d) For purposes of testing under Sec. 86.094-26(a)(9) or (b)(11), 
the Administrator may require additional emission data vehicles (or 
emission data engines) and durability data vehicles (light-duty vehicles 
only) identical in all material respects to vehicles (or engines) 
selected in accordance with paragraphs (b) and (c) of this section, 
provided that the number of vehicles (or engines) selected shall not 
increase the size of either the emission data fleet or the durability 
data fleet by more than 20 percent or one vehicle (or engine), whichever 
is greater.
    (e)(1) [Reserved]
    (2) Any manufacturer may request to certify engine families with 
combined total sales of fewer than 10,000 light-

[[Page 253]]

duty vehicles, light-duty trucks, heavy-duty vehicles, and heavy-duty 
engines utilizing the procedures contained in Sec. 86.094-14 for 
emission data vehicle selection and determination of deterioration 
factors. The deterioration factors shall be applied only to entire 
engine families.
    (f) Carryover and carryacross of durability and emission data. In 
lieu of testing an emission data or durability data vehicle (or engine) 
selected under paragraph (b) or (c) of this section, and submitting data 
therefore, a manufacturer may, with the prior written approval of the 
Administrator, submit exhaust emission data and/or evaporative emission 
data, as applicable on a similar vehicle (or engine) for which 
certification has previously been obtained or for which all applicable 
data required under Sec. 86.094-23 has previously been submitted.
    (g)(1) Paragraph (g) of this section applies to light-duty vehicles 
and light-duty trucks, but does not apply to the production vehicles 
selected under paragraph (h) of this section.
    (2)(i) Where it is expected that more than 33 percent of a carline, 
within an engine-system combination, shall be equipped with an item 
(whether that item is standard equipment or an option), the full 
estimated weight of that item shall be included in the curb weight 
computation for each vehicle available with that item in that carline, 
within that engine-system combination.
    (ii) Where it is expected that 33 percent or less of the carline, 
within an engine-system combination, will be equipped with an item 
(whether that item is standard equipment or an option), no weight for 
that item will be added in computing the curb weight for any vehicle in 
that carline, within that engine-system combination, unless that item is 
standard equipment on the vehicle.
    (iii) In the case of mutually exclusive options, only the weight of 
the heavier option will be added in computing the curb weight.
    (iv) Optional equipment weighing less than three pounds per item 
need not be considered.
    (3)(i) Where it is expected that more than 33 percent of a carline, 
within an engine-system combination, will be equipped with an item 
(whether that item is standard equipment or an option) that can 
reasonably be expected to influence emissions, then such items shall 
actually be installed (unless excluded under paragraph (g)(3)(ii) of 
this section) on all emission data and durability data vehicles of that 
carline, within that engine-system combination, on which the items are 
intended to be offered in production. Items that can reasonably be 
expected to influence emissions are: air conditioning, power steering, 
power brakes, and other items determined by the Administrator.
    (ii) If the manufacturer determines by test data or engineering 
evaluation that the actual installation of the optional equipment 
required by paragraph (g)(3)(i) of this section does not affect the 
emissions or fuel economy values, the optional equipment need not be 
installed on the test vehicle.
    (iii) The weight of the options shall be included in the design curb 
weight and also be represented in the weight of the test vehicles.
    (iv) The engineering evaluation, including any test data, used to 
support the deletion of optional equipment from test vehicles, shall be 
maintained by the manufacturer and shall be made available to the 
Administrator upon request.
    (4) Where it is expected that 33 percent or less of a carline, 
within an engine-system combination, will be equipped with an item 
(whether that item is standard equipment or an option) that can 
reasonably be expected to influence emissions, that item shall not be 
installed on any emission data vehicle or durability data vehicle of 
that carline, within that engine-system combination, unless that item is 
standard equipment on that vehicle or specifically required by the 
Administrator.
    (h) Production AMA Durability Program durability data vehicles. 
Paragraph (h) of this section applies to light-duty vehicle durability 
data vehicles selected under the Production AMA Durability Program 
described in Sec. 86.094-13.

[[Page 254]]

    (1) In order to update the durability data to be used to determine a 
deterioration factor for each engine family group, the Administrator 
will select durability data vehicles from the manufacturer's production 
line. Production vehicles will be selected from each model year's 
production for those vehicles certified using the Production AMA 
Durability Program procedures.
    (i) The Administrator shall select the production durability data 
vehicle designs from the designs that the manufacturer offers for sale. 
For each model year and for each engine family group, the Administrator 
may select production durability data vehicle designs of equal number to 
the number of engine families within the engine family group, up to a 
maximum of three vehicles.
    (ii) The production durability data vehicles representing the 
designs selected in paragraph (h)(1)(i) of this section will be randomly 
selected from the manufacturer's production. The Administrator will make 
these random selections unless the manufacturer (with prior approval of 
the Administrator) elects to make the random selections.
    (iii) The manufacturer may select additional production durability 
data vehicle designs from within the engine family group. The production 
durability data vehicles representing these designs shall be randomly 
selected from the manufacturer's production in accordance with paragraph 
(h)(1)(ii) of this section.
    (iv) For each production on durability data vehicle selected under 
paragraph (h)(1) of this section, the manufacturer shall provide to the 
Administrator (before the vehicle is tested or begins service 
accumulation) the vehicle identification number. Before the vehicle 
begins service accumulation the manufacturer shall also provide the 
Administrator with a description of the durability data vehicle as 
specified by the Administrator.
    (v) In lieu of testing a production durability data vehicle selected 
under paragraph (h)(1) of this section, and submitting data therefrom, a 
manufacturer may, with the prior written approval of the Administrator, 
submit exhaust emission data from a production vehicle of the same 
configuration for which all applicable data has previously been 
submitted.
    (2) If, within an existing engine family group, a manufacturer 
requests to certify vehicles of a new design, engine family, emission 
control system, or with any other durability-related design difference, 
the Administrator will determine if the existing engine family group 
deterioration factor is appropriate for the new design. If the 
Administrator cannot make this determination or deems the deterioration 
factor not appropriate, the Administrator shall select preproduction 
durability data vehicles under the provisions of paragraph (c) of this 
section. If vehicles are then certified using the new design, the 
Administrator may select production vehicles with the new design under 
the provisions of paragraph (h)(1) of this section.
    (3) If a manufacturer requests to certify vehicles of a new design 
that the Administrator determines are a new engine family group, the 
Administrator shall select preproduction durability data vehicles under 
the provisions of paragraph (c) of this section. If vehicles are then 
certified using the new design, the Administrator may select production 
vehicles of that design under the provisions of paragraph (h)(1) of this 
section.

Sec. 86.094-25  Maintenance.

    (a)(1) Applicability. This section applies to light-duty vehicles, 
light-duty trucks, and heavy-duty engines.
    (2) Maintenance performed on vehicles, engines, subsystems, or 
components used to determine exhaust or evaporative emission 
deterioration factors is classified as either emission-related or non-
emission-related and each of these can be classified as either scheduled 
or unscheduled. Further, some emission-related maintenance is also 
classified as critical emission-related maintenance.
    (b) This section specifies emission-related scheduled maintenance 
for purposes of obtaining durability data and for inclusion in 
maintenance instructions furnished to purchasers of new

[[Page 255]]

motor vehicles and new motor vehicles engines under Sec. 86.087-38.
    (1) All emission-related scheduled maintenance for purposes of 
obtaining durability data must occur at the same mileage intervals (or 
equivalent intervals if engines, subsystems, or components are used) 
that will be specified in the manufacturer's maintenance instructions 
furnished to the ultimate purchaser of the motor vehicle or engine under 
Sec. 86.094-35. This maintenance schedule may be updated as necessary 
throughout the testing of the vehicle/engine, provided that no 
maintenance operation is deleted from the maintenance schedule after the 
operation has been performed on the test vehicle or engine.
    (2) Any emission-related maintenance which is performed on vehicles, 
engines, subsystems, or components must be technologically necessary to 
assure in-use compliance with the emission standards. The manufacturer 
must submit data which demonstrate to the Administrator that all of the 
emission-related scheduled maintenance which is to be performed is 
technologically necessary. Scheduled maintenance must be approved by the 
Administrator prior to being performed or being included in the 
maintenance instructions provided to purchasers under Sec. 86.087-38. 
The Administrator has determined that emission-related maintenance at 
shorter intervals than those outlined in paragraphs (b) (3) and (4) of 
this section is not technologically necessary to ensure in-use 
compliance. However, the Administrator may determine that maintenance 
even more restrictive (e.g., longer intervals) than that listed in 
paragraphs (b) (3) and (4) of this section is also not technologically 
necessary.
    (3) For Otto-cycle light-duty vehicles, light-duty trucks and heavy 
duty engines, emission-related maintenance in addition to, or at shorter 
intervals than, that listed in paragraphs (b)(3) (i) through (vii) of 
this section will not be accepted as technologically necessary, except 
as provided in paragraph (b)(7) of this section.

    (E) Exhaust gas recirculation system including all related filters 
and control valves.
    (F) Catalytic converter.
    (G) Superchargers.
    (5) [Reserved]
    (6)(i) The components listed in paragraphs (b)(6)(i) (A) through (G) 
of this section are currently defined as critical emission-related 
components.
    (A) Catalytic converter.
    (B) Air injection system components.
    (C) Electronic engine control unit and its associated sensors 
(including oxygen sensor if installed) and actuators.
    (D) Exhaust gas recirculation system (including all related filters

    (E) Positive crankcase ventilation valve.
    (F) Evaporative emission control system components (excluding 
canister air filter).
    (G) Particulate trap or trap-oxidizer system.
    (ii) All critical emission-related scheduled maintenance must have a 
reasonable likelihood of being performed in-use. The manufacturer shall 
be required to show the reasonable likelihood of such maintenance being 
performed in-use, and such showing shall be made prior to the 
performance of the maintenance on the durability

[[Page 257]]

data vehicle. Critical emission-related scheduled maintenance items 
which satisfy one of the conditions defined in paragraphs (b)(6)(ii) (A) 
through (F) of this section will be accepted as having a reasonable 
likelihood of the maintenance item being performed in-use.
    (A) Data are presented which establish for the Administrator a 
connection between emissions and vehicle performance such that as 
emissions increase due to lack of maintenance, vehicle performance will 
simultaneously deteriorate to a point unacceptable for typical driving.
    (B) Survey data are submitted which adequately demonstrate to the 
Administrator that, at an 80 percent confidence level, 80 percent of 
such engines already have this critical maintenance item performed in-
use at the recommended interval(s)
    (C) A clearly displayed visible signal system approved by the 
Administrator is installed to alert the vehicle driver that maintenance 
is due. A signal bearing the message ``maintenance needed'' or ``check 
engine,'', or a similar message approved by the Administrator, shall be 
actuated at the appropriate mileage point or by component failure. This 
signal must be continuous while the engine is in operation and not be 
easily eliminated without performance of the required maintenance. 
Resetting the signal shall be a required step in the maintenance 
operation. The method for resetting the signal system shall be approved 
by the Administrator.
    (D) A manufacturer may desire to demonstrate through a survey that a 
critical maintenance item is likely to be performed without a visible 
signal on a maintenance item for which there is no prior in-use 
experience without the signal. To that end, the manufacturer may in a 
given model year market up to 200 randomly selected vehicles per 
critical emission-related maintenance item without such visible signals, 
and monitor the performance of the critical maintenance item by the 
owners to show compliance with paragraph (b)(6)(ii)(B) of this section. 
This option is restricted to two consecutive model years and may not be 
repeated until any previous survey has been completed. If the critical 
maintenance involves more than one engine family, the sample will be 
sales weighted to ensure that it is representative of all the families 
in question.
    (E) The manufacturer provides the maintenance free of charge, and 
clearly informs the customer that the maintenance is free in the 
instructions provided under Sec. 86.087-38.
    (F) Any other method which the Administrator approves as 
establishing a reasonable likelihood that the critical maintenance will 
be performed in-use.
    (iii) Visible signal systems used under paragraph (b)(6)(ii)(C) of 
this section are considered an element of design of the emission control 
system. Therefore, disabling, resetting, or otherwise rendering such 
signals inoperative without also performing the indicated maintenance 
procedure is a prohibited act under section 203(a)(3) of the Clean Air 
Act (42 U.S.C. 7522(a) (3)).
    (7) Changes to scheduled maintenance. (i) For maintenance practices 
that existed prior to the 1980 model year, only the maintenance items 
listed in paragraphs (b) (3) and (4) of this section are currently 
considered by EPA to be emission-related. The Administrator may, 
however, determine additional scheduled maintenance items that existed 
prior to the 1980 model year to be emission-related by announcement in a 
Federal Register Notice. In no event may this notification occur later 
than September 1 of the calendar year two years prior to the affected 
model year.
    (ii) In the case of any new scheduled maintenance, the manufacturer 
must submit a request for approval to the Administrator for any 
maintenance that it wishes to recommend to purchasers and perform during 
durability determination. New scheduled maintenance is that maintenance 
which did not exist prior to the 1980 model year, including that which 
is a direct result of the implementation of new technology not found in 
production prior to the 1980 model year. The manufacturer must also 
include its recommendations as to the category (i.e., emission-related 
or non-emission-related, critical or non-critical) of the subject 
maintenance and, for suggested emission-related maintenance, the maximum 
feasible maintenance interval. Such requests must include detailed 
evidence

[[Page 258]]

supporting the need for the maintenance requested, and supporting data 
or other substantiation for the recommended maintenance category and for 
the interval suggested for emission-related maintenance. Requests for 
new scheduled maintenance must be approved prior to the introduction of 
the new maintenance. The Administrator will then designate the 
maintenance as emission-related or non-emission-related. For maintenance 
items established as emission-related, the Administrator will further 
designate the maintenance as critical if the component which receives 
the maintenance is a critical component under paragraph (b)(6) of this 
section. For each maintenance item designated as emission-related, the 
Administrator will also establish a technologically necessary 
maintenance interval, based on industry data and any other information 
available to EPA. Designations of emission-related maintenance items, 
along with their identification as critical or non-critical, and 
establishment of technologically necessary maintenance intervals, will 
be announced in the Federal Register.
    (iii) Any manufacturer may request a hearing on the Administrator's 
determinations in paragraph (b)(7) of this section. The request shall be 
in writing and shall include a statement specifying the manufacturer's 
objections to the Administrator's determinations, and data in support of 
such objections. If, after review of the request and supporting data, 
the Administrator finds that the request raises a substantial factual 
issue, he shall provide the manufacturer a hearing in accordance with 
Sec. 86.078-6 with respect to such issue.
    (c) Non-emission-related scheduled maintenance which is reasonable 
and technologically necessary (e.g., oil change, oil filter change, fuel 
filter change, air filter change, cooling system maintenance, adjustment 
of idle speed, governor, engine bolt torque, valve lash, injector lash, 
timing, adjustment of air pump drive belt tension, lubrication of the 
exhaust manifold heat control valve, lubrication of carburetor choke 
linkage, retorqueing carburetor mounting bolts, etc.) may be performed 
on durability data vehicles at the least frequent intervals recommended 
by the manufacturer to the ultimate purchaser, (e.g., not at the 
intervals recommended for severe service).
    (d) Unscheduled maintenance on light-duty durability data vehicles. 
(1) Unscheduled maintenance may be performed during the testing used to 
determine deterioration factors, except as provided in paragraphs (d) 
(2) and (3) of this section, only under the following provisions defined 
in paragraphs (d)(1) (i) through (iii) of this section.
    (i) A fuel injector or spark plug may be changed if a persistent 
misfire is detected.
    (ii) Readjustment of an Otto-cycle vehicle cold-start enrichment 
system may be performed if there is a problem of stalling.
    (iii) Readjustment of the engine idle speed (curb idle and fast 
idle) may be performed in addition to that performed as scheduled 
maintenance under paragraph (c) of this section if the idle speed 
exceeds the manufacturer's recommended idle speed by 300 rpm or more, or 
if there is a problem of stalling.
    (2) Any other unscheduled vehicle, emission control system, or fuel 
system adjustment, repair, removal, disassembly, cleaning, or 
replacement during testing to determine deterioration factors shall be 
performed only with the advance approval of the Administrator. Such 
approval will be given if the Administrator:
    (i) Has made a preliminary determination that the part failure or 
system malfunction, or the repair of such failure or malfunction, does 
not render the vehicle or engine unrepresentative of vehicles or engines 
in-use and does not require direct access to the combustion chamber, 
except for spark plug, fuel injection component, or removable prechamber 
removal or replacement.
    (ii) Has made a determination that the need for maintenance or 
repairs is indicated by an overt indication of malfunction such as 
persistent misfiring, engine stalling, overheating, fluid leakage, loss 
of oil pressure, excessive fuel consumption, or excessive power loss. 
The Administrator shall be given the opportunity to verify the existence 
of an overt indication of part failure and/or vehicle/engine malfunction 
(e.g.,

[[Page 259]]

misfiring, stalling, black smoke), or an activation of an audible and/or 
visible signal, prior to the performance of any maintenance to which 
such overt indication or signal is relevant under the provisions of this 
section.
    (iii) Has made a determination that the OBD system of a durability 
data vehicle representing an engine family certifying fully to the 
Federal OBD requirements as specified in Sec. 86.094-17(a) through (h) 
has specifically detected the problem and has illuminated the 
malfunction indicator light.
    (3) Emission measurement may not be used as a means of determining 
the need for unscheduled maintenance under paragraph (d)(2) of this 
section, except under the conditions defined in paragraphs (d)(3) (i) 
through (ii) of this section.
    (i) The Administrator may approve unscheduled maintenance on 
durability data vehicles based upon a significant change in emission 
levels that indicates a vehicle or engine malfunction. In these cases 
the Administrator may first approve specific diagnostic procedures to 
identify the source of the problem. The Administrator may further 
approve of specific corrections to the problem after the problem has 
been identified. The Administrator may only approve the corrective 
action after it is determined that:
    (A) The malfunction was caused by nonproduction build practices or 
by a previously undetected design problem;
    (B) The malfunction will not occur in production vehicles or engines 
in-use; and
    (C) The deterioration factor generated by the durability data 
vehicle or engine will remain unaffected by the malfunction or by the 
corrective action (e.g., the malfunction was present for only a short 
period of time before detection, replacement parts are functionally 
representative of the proper mileage or hours, etc.).
    (ii) Following any unscheduled maintenance approved under paragraph 
(d)(3)(i) of this section, the manufacturer shall perform an after-
maintenance emission test. If the Administrator determines that the 
after-maintenance emission levels for any pollutant indicates that the 
deterioration factor is no longer representative of production, the 
Administrator may disqualify the durability data vehicle or engine.
    (4) If the Administrator determines that part failure or system 
malfunction occurrence and/or repair rendered the vehicle/engine 
unrepresentative of vehicles in-use, the vehicle/engine shall not be 
used for determining deterioration factors.
    (5) Repairs to vehicle components of a durability data vehicle other 
than the engine, emission control system, or fuel system, shall be 
performed only as a result of part failure, vehicle system malfunction, 
or with the advance approval of the Administrator.
    (e) Maintenance on emission data vehicles and engines. (1) 
Adjustment of engine idle speed on emission data vehicles may be 
performed once before the low-mileage/low-hour emission test point. Any 
other engine, emission control system, or fuel system adjustment, 
repair, removal, disassembly, cleaning, or replacement on emission data 
vehicles shall be performed only with the advance approval of the 
Administrator.
    (2)-(3) [Reserved]
    (4) Repairs to vehicle components of an emission data vehicle other 
than the engine, emission control system, or fuel system, shall be 
performed only as a result of part failure, vehicle system malfunction, 
or with the advance approval of the Administrator.
    (f) Equipment, instruments, or tools may not be used to identify 
malfunctioning, maladjusted, or defective engine components unless the 
same or equivalent equipment, instruments, or tools will be available to 
dealerships and other service outlets and:
    (1) Are used in conjunction with scheduled maintenance on such 
components; or
    (2) Are used subsequent to the identification of a vehicle or engine 
malfunction, as provided in paragraph (d)(2) of this section for 
durability data vehicles or in paragraph (e)(1) of this section for 
emission data vehicles; or
    (3) Unless specifically authorized by the Administrator.
    (g)(1) Paragraph (g) of this section applies to light-duty vehicles.
    (2) Complete emission tests (see Secs. 86.106 through 86.145) are 
required, unless waived by the Administrator,

[[Page 260]]

before and after scheduled maintenance approved for durability data 
vehicles. The manufacturer may perform emission tests before unscheduled 
maintenance. Complete emission tests are required after unscheduled 
maintenance which may reasonably be expected to affect emissions. The 
Administrator may waive the requirement to test after unscheduled 
maintenance. These test data may be submitted weekly to the 
Administrator, but shall be air posted or delivered within 7 days after 
completion of the tests, along with a complete record of all pertinent 
maintenance, including a preliminary engineering report of any 
malfunction diagnosis and the corrective action taken. A complete 
engineering report shall be delivered to the Administrator concurrently 
with the manufacturer's application for certification.
    (h) All test data, maintenance reports, and required engineering 
reports shall be compiled and provided to the Administrator in 
accordance with Sec. 86.090-23.

Sec. 86.094-26  Mileage and service accumulation; emission requirements.

    (a)(1) Paragraph (a) of this section applies to light-duty vehicles. 
It prescribes mileage and service accumulation requirements for 
durability data vehicles run under either the Standard AMA Durability 
Program of Sec. 86.094-13(c) or the Production AMA Durability Program of 
Sec. 86.094-13(d), and for emission data vehicles regardless of the 
durability program employed. Service accumulation requirements for 
durability data vehicles run under the Alternative Service Accumulation 
Program may be found in Sec. 86.094-13(e).
    (2) The standard method of whole-vehicle service accumulation for 
durability data vehicles and for emission data vehicles in model years 
1994 and beyond shall be mileage accumulation using the Durability 
Driving Schedule as specified in appendix IV to this part. A modified 
procedure may also be used if approved in advance by the Administrator. 
Except with the advance approval of the Administrator, all vehicles will 
accumulate mileage at a measured curb weight which is within 100 pounds 
of the estimated curb weight. If the loaded vehicle weight is within 100 
pounds of being included in the next higher inertia weight class as 
specified in Sec. 86.129, the manufacturer may elect to conduct the 
respective emission tests at higher loaded vehicle weight.
    (3) Emission data vehicles. Unless otherwise provided for in 
Sec. 86.094-23(a), emission data vehicles shall be operated and tested 
as described in paragraphs (a)(3) (i) and (ii) of this section.
    (i) Otto-cycle. (A) The manufacturer shall determine, for each 
engine family, the mileage at which the engine-system combination is 
stabilized for emission data testing. The manufacturer shall maintain, 
and provide to the Administrator if requested, a record of the rationale 
used in making this determination. The manufacturer may elect to 
accumulate 4,000 miles on each test vehicle within an engine family 
without making a determination. The manufacturer must accumulate a 
minimum of 2,000 miles (3,219 kilometers) on each test vehicle within an 
engine family. All test vehicle mileage must be accurately determined, 
recorded, and reported to the Administrator. Any vehicle used to 
represent emission data vehicle selections under Sec. 86.094-24(b)(1) 
shall be equipped with an engine and emission control system that has 
accumulated the mileage the manufacturer chose to accumulate on the test 
vehicle. Fuel economy data generated from certification vehicles 
selected in accordance with Sec. 86.094-24(b)(1) with engine-system 
combinations that have accumulated more than 10,000 kilometers (6,200 
miles) shall be factored in accordance with Sec. 600.006(c) of this 
chapter. Complete exhaust and evaporative (if required) emission tests 
shall be conducted for each emission data vehicle selection under 
Sec. 86.094-24(b)(1) . The Administrator may determine under 
Sec. 86.094-24(f) that no testing is required.
    (B) Emission tests for emission data vehicle(s) selected for testing 
under Sec. 86.094-24(b)(1) (v) or (viii) shall be conducted at the 
mileage (2,000 mile minimum) at which the engine-system combination is 
stabilized for emission testing under high-altitude conditions.

[[Page 261]]

    (C) Exhaust and evaporative emissions tests for emission data 
vehicle(s) selected for testing under Sec. 86.094-24(b)(1) (i), (ii), 
(iii), (iv), or (vii)(B) shall be conducted at the mileage (2,000 mile 
minimum) at which the engine-system combination is stabilized for 
emission testing under low-altitude conditions.
    (D) For each engine family, the manufacturer will either select one 
vehicle previously selected under Sec. 86.094-24(b)(1) (i) through (iv) 
to be tested under high-altitude conditions or provide a statement in 
accordance with Sec. 86.094-24(b)(1)(v). Vehicles shall meet emission 
standards under both low- and high-altitude conditions without manual 
adjustments or modifications. In addition, any emission control device 
used to conform with the emission standards under high-altitude 
conditions shall initially actuate (automatically) no higher than 4,000 
feet above sea level.
    (ii) Diesel-cycle. (A) The manufacturer shall determine, for each 
engine family, the mileage at which the engine-system combination is 
stabilized for emission data testing. The manufacturer shall maintain, 
and provide to the Administrator if requested, a record of the rationale 
used in making this determination. The manufacturer may elect to 
accumulate 4,000 miles on each test vehicle within an engine family 
without making a determination. The manufacturer must accumulate a 
minimum of 2,000 miles (3,219 kilometers) on each test vehicle within an 
engine family. All test vehicle mileage must be accurately determined, 
recorded, and reported to the Administrator. Any vehicle used to 
represent emission data vehicle selections under Sec. 86.094-24(b)(1) 
shall be equipped with an engine and emission control system that has 
accumulated the mileage the manufacturer chose to accumulate on the test 
vehicle. Fuel economy data generated from certification vehicles 
selected in accordance with Sec. 86.094-24(b)(1) with engine-system 
combinations that have accumulated more than 10,000 kilometers (6,200 
miles) shall be factored in accordance with Sec. 600.006 of this 
chapter. Complete exhaust emission tests shall be conducted for each 
emission data vehicle selection under Sec. 86.094-24(b)(1). The 
Administrator may determine under Sec. 86.094-24(f) that no testing is 
required.
    (B) Emission tests for emission data vehicle(s) selected for testing 
under Sec. 86.094-24(b)(1)(v) shall be conducted at the mileage (2,000 
mile minimum) at which the engine-system combination is stabilized for 
emission testing under high-altitude conditions.
    (C) Exhaust and evaporative emission tests for emission data 
vehicle(s) selected for testing under Sec. 86.094-24(b)(1) (i), (ii), 
(iii), (iv), or (vii)(B) shall be conducted at the mileage (2,000 mile 
minimum) at which the engine-system combination is stabilized for 
emission testing under low-altitude conditions.
    (D) For each engine family, the manufacturer will either select one 
vehicle previously selected under Sec. 86.094-24(b)(1) (i) through (iv) 
to be tested under high-altitude conditions or provide a statement in 
accordance with Sec. 86.094-24(b)(1)(v). Vehicles shall meet emission 
standards under both low- and high-altitude conditions without manual 
adjustments or modifications. In addition, any emission control device 
used to conform with the emission standards under high-altitude 
conditions shall initially actuate (automatically) no higher than 4,000 
feet above sea level.
    (4)(i) Durability data vehicles. (A) Unless otherwise provided for 
in Sec. 86.094-13(e) or Sec. 86.094-23(a) or in paragraph (a)(4)(i)(B) 
of this section, each durability data vehicle shall be driven on the 
whole-vehicle mileage accumulation cycle specified in paragraph (a)(2) 
of this section, with all emission control systems installed and 
operating, up to a mileage endpoint corresponding to the vehicle's 
durability useful life as defined in Sec. 86.094-2.
    (B) Extrapolation of durability data and changes to the mileage 
accumulation cycle. (1) Once a durability vehicle has reached the 
greater of 75,000 miles or three-quarters of the applicable durability 
useful life, the manufacturer may petition the Administrator to 
extrapolate the durability data obtained up to that point out to the 
durability useful life or to replace the mileage accumulation cycle with 
an alternative that meets the criteria of paragraph (a)(2) of this 
section. In the petition,

[[Page 262]]

the manufacturer shall supplement the durability vehicle data with other 
information demonstrating the durability of the vehicle's emission 
control components and systems at or beyond the durability useful life.
    (2) Factors the Administrator will consider in evaluating petitions 
for extrapolation of durability data or for changes to the mileage 
accumulation cycle include, but are not limited to, any unusual 
scheduled maintenance, unscheduled maintenance, the general linearity 
and scatter of the actual data, reasonable explanations for all outlier 
data, the technical validity of any substitute mileage accumulation 
cycle, and evidence supplied by the vehicle manufacturer of component 
and system durability.
    (3) If a petition for extrapolation of durability data is approved, 
the endpoint for whole-vehicle mileage accumulation of the durability 
data vehicle shall be the mileage attained by the vehicle as reflected 
in the petition.
    (4) Discontinuation of a durability data vehicle shall be allowed 
only with the consent of the Administrator.
    (C) Complete exhaust emission tests shall be made at nominal test 
point mileage intervals that the manufacturer determines. At a minimum, 
two complete exhaust emission tests shall be made. The first test shall 
be made at a distance not greater than 6,250 miles. The last shall be 
made at the mileage accumulation endpoint determined in paragraph 
(a)(4)(i) (A) or (B) of this section, whichever is applicable.
    (D) Except with advance approval of the Administrator, the mileage 
interval between nominal test points must be of equal length except for 
the interval between zero miles and the first test, and any interval 
before or after testing conducted in conjunction with vehicle 
maintenance as specified in Sec. 86.094-25(g)(2).
    (ii) The manufacturer may, at its option, alter the durability data 
vehicle at the selected nominal test point to represent emission data 
vehicle(s) within the same engine-system combination and perform 
emission tests on the altered vehicle. Upon completion of emission 
testing, the manufacturer may return the test vehicle to the durability 
data vehicle configuration and continue mileage accumulation.
    (5)(i) All tests required by this subpart on emission data vehicles 
shall be conducted at a mileage equal to or greater than the mileage the 
manufacturer determines under paragraph (a)(3) of this section.
    (ii) All tests required by this subpart on durability data vehicles 
shall be conducted within 250 miles of each of the nominal test points. 
This 250 mile test point mileage tolerance may be modified 
with the advance approval of the Administrator if the basis for the 
written request is to prevent an interruption of durability mileage 
accumulation due to test scheduling conflicts for weekends, holidays, 
and other similar circumstances.
    (6)(i)(A) The manufacturer may conduct multiple tests at any test 
point at which the data are intended to be used in the deterioration 
factor. At each test point where multiple tests are conducted, the test 
results from all valid tests shall be averaged to determine the data 
point to be used in the deterioration factor calculation, except under 
paragraph (a)(6)(i)(B) of this section. The test results from emission 
tests performed before maintenance affecting emissions shall not be 
averaged with test results after the maintenance.
    (B) The manufacturer is not required to average multiple tests if 
the manufacturer conducts no more than three tests at each test point 
and if the number of tests at each test point is equal. All test points 
must be treated the same for all exhaust pollutants.
    (ii) The results of all emission testing shall be supplied to the 
Administrator. The manufacturer shall furnish to the Administrator 
explanation for voiding any test. The Administrator will determine if 
voiding the test was appropriate based upon the explanation given by the 
manufacturer for the voided test. Tests between test points may be 
conducted as required by the Administrator. Data from all tests 
(including voided tests) may be submitted weekly to the Administrator, 
but shall be air posted or delivered to the Administrator within 7 days 
after completion of the test. In addition, all test data shall be 
compiled and provided to the

[[Page 263]]

Administrator in accordance with Sec. 86.091-23. Where the Administrator 
conducts a test on a durability data vehicle at a prescribed test point, 
the results of that test will be used in the calculation of the 
deterioration factor.
    (iii) The results of all emission tests shall be rounded to the 
number of places to the right of the decimal point indicated by 
expressing the applicable emission standard of this subpart to one 
additional significant figure, in accordance with the rounding off 
method specified in ASTM E 29-67 (reapproved 1980) (``Standard 
recommended practice for indicating which places of figures are to be 
considered significant in specified limiting values,'' American Society 
for Testing and Materials). This incorporation by reference was approved 
by the Director of the Federal Register in accordance with 5 U.S.C. 
552(a) and 1 CFR part 51. Copies may be obtained from American Society 
for Testing and Materials, 1916 Race St., Philadelphia, PA 19103. Copies 
may be inspected at the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Air Docket 
Section, room M-1500, 401 M Street SW., Washington, DC 20460 or at the 
Office of the Federal Register, 800 North Capitol Street, NW., suite 
700, Washington DC.
    (7) Whenever a manufacturer intends to operate and test a vehicle 
which may be used for emission or durability data, the manufacturer 
shall retain in its records all information concerning all emissions 
tests and maintenance, including vehicle alterations to represent other 
vehicle selections. For emission data vehicles, this information shall 
be submitted, including the vehicle description and specification 
information required by the Administrator, to the Administrator 
following the emission data test. For durability data vehicles, this 
information shall be submitted following the 5,000-mile test.
    (8) The data from emission data vehicles and durability data 
vehicles obtained pursuant to the provisions of this section will be 
used in the calculations under Sec. 86.094-28.
    (9)(i) The Administrator may elect to operate and test any test 
vehicle during all or any part of the mileage accumulation and testing 
procedure. In such cases, the manufacturer shall provide the vehicle(s) 
to the Administrator with all information necessary to conduct this 
testing.
    (ii) The test procedures in Secs. 86.106 through 86.145 will be 
followed by the Administrator. The Administrator will test the vehicles 
at each test point. Maintenance may be performed by the manufacturer 
under such conditions as the Administrator may prescribe.
    (iii) The data developed by the Administrator for the engine-system 
combination shall be combined with any applicable data supplied by the 
manufacturer on other vehicles of that combination to determine the 
applicable deterioration factors for the combination. In the case of a 
significant discrepancy between data developed by the Administrator and 
that submitted by the manufacturer, the Administrator's data shall be 
used in the determination of deterioration factors.
    (10) Emission testing of any type with respect to any certification 
vehicle other than that specified in this part is not allowed except as 
such testing may be specifically authorized by the Administrator.
    (11) This section does not apply to testing conducted to meet the 
requirements of Sec. 86.091-23(b)(2).
    (b)(1) Paragraph (b) of this section applies to light-duty trucks.
    (2) Four types of mileage or service accumulation are applicable to 
light-duty trucks, as described in paragraphs (b)(2) (i) through (iv) of 
this section.
    (i) Paragraph (b)(2)(i) of this section applies to service 
accumulation conducted under the Standard Self-Approval Durability 
Program of Sec. 86.094-13(f). This type of service accumulation is 
applicable for model years 1994 and beyond only. The manufacturer 
determines the form and extent of this service accumulation, consistent 
with good engineering practice, and describes it in the application for 
certification. Service accumulation under the Standard Self-Approval 
Durability Program is conducted on vehicles, engines, subsystems, or 
components selected by the manufacturer under Sec. 86.094-24(c)(2)(i).
    (ii) Paragraph (b)(2)(ii) of this section applies to service 
accumulation conducted under the Alternative Service Accumulation 
Durability Program of Sec. 86.094-13(e). This type of service 
accumulation is applicable for model years

[[Page 264]]

1994 and beyond only. The service accumulation method is developed by 
the manufacturer to be consistent with good engineering practice and to 
accurately predict the deterioration of the vehicle's emissions in 
actual use over its full useful life. The method is subject to advance 
approval by the Administrator and to verification by an in-use 
verification program conducted by the manufacturer under Sec. 86.094-
13(e)(5).
    (iii) Paragraph (b)(2)(iii) of this section applies to mileage 
accumulation of the duration selected by the manufacturer on emission 
data vehicles selected under Sec. 86.094-24(b)(1). The procedure for 
mileage accumulation will be the Durability Driving Schedule as 
specified in appendix IV to this part. A modified procedure may also be 
used if approved in advance by the Administrator. Except with the 
advance approval of the Administrator, all vehicles will accumulate 
mileage at a measured curb weight which is within 100 pounds of the 
estimated curb weight. If the loaded vehicle weight is within 100 pounds 
of being included in the next higher inertia weight class as specified 
in Sec. 86.129, the manufacturer may elect to conduct the respective 
emission tests at higher loaded vehicle weight.
    (iv) Service or mileage accumulation may also be part of the test 
procedures used by the manufacturer to establish evaporative emission 
deterioration factors.
    (3) Exhaust emission deterioration factors will be determined on the 
basis of the mileage or service accumulation described in paragraph 
(b)(2) (i) or (ii) of this section and related testing, according to the 
manufacturer's procedures.
    (4) Each emission data vehicle shall be operated and tested as 
follows:
    (i) Otto-cycle. (A) The manufacturer shall determine, for each 
engine family, the mileage at which the engine-system combination is 
stabilized for emission data testing. The manufacturer shall maintain, 
and provide to the Administrator if requested, a record of the rationale 
used in making this determination. The manufacturer may elect to 
accumulate 4,000 miles on each test vehicle within an engine family 
without making a determination. The manufacturer must accumulate a 
minimum of 2,000 miles (3,219 kilometers) on each test vehicle within an 
engine family. All test vehicle mileage must be accurately determined, 
recorded, and reported to the Administrator. Any vehicle used to 
represent emission data vehicle selections under Sec. 86.094-24(b)(1) 
shall be equipped with an engine and emission control system that has 
accumulated the mileage the manufacturer chose to accumulate on the test 
vehicle. Fuel economy data generated from certification vehicles 
selected in accordance with Sec. 86.094-24(b)(1) with engine-system 
combinations that have accumulated more than 10,000 kilometers (6,200 
miles) shall be factored in accordance with Sec. 600.006 of this 
chapter. Complete exhaust emission tests shall be conducted for each 
emission data vehicle selection under Sec. 86.094-24(b)(1). The 
Administrator may determine under Sec. 86.094-24(f) that no testing is 
required.
    (B) Emission tests for emission data vehicle(s) selected for testing 
under Sec. 86.094-24(b)(1) (v) or (viii) shall be conducted at the 
mileage (2,000 mile minimum) at which the engine-system combination is 
stabilized for emission testing or at 6,436 kilometers (4,000 miles) 
under high-altitude conditions.
    (C) Exhaust and evaporative emission tests for emission data 
vehicle(s) selected for testing under Sec. 86.094-24(b)(1) (ii), (iii), 
(iv)(A), or (vii)(B) shall be conducted at the mileage (2,000 mile 
minimum) at which the engine-system combination is stabilized for 
emission testing or at 6,436 kilometer (4,000 mile) test point under 
low-altitude conditions.
    (D) If the manufacturer recommends adjustments or modifications in 
order to conform to emission standards at high altitude, such 
adjustments or modifications shall be made to the test vehicle selected 
under Sec. 86.094-24(b)(1) (v) and (viii) (in accordance with the 
instructions to be provided to the ultimate purchaser) before being 
tested under high-altitude conditions.
    (ii) Diesel-cycle. (A) The manufacturer shall determine, for each 
engine family, the mileage at which the engine-system combination is 
stabilized for emission data testing. The manufacturer shall maintain, 
and provide to

[[Page 265]]

the Administrator if requested, a record of the rationale used in making 
this determination. The manufacturer may elect to accumulate 4,000 miles 
on each test vehicle within an engine family without making a 
determination. The manufacturer must accumulate a minimum of 2,000 miles 
(3,219 kilometers) on each test vehicle within an engine family. All 
test vehicle mileage must be accurately determined, recorded, and 
reported to the Administrator. Any vehicle used to represent emission 
data vehicle selections under Sec. 86.094-24(b)(1) shall be equipped 
with an engine and emission control system that has accumulated the 
mileage the manufacturer chose to accumulate on the test vehicle. Fuel 
economy data generated from certification vehicles selected in 
accordance with Sec. 86.094-24(b)(1) with engine-system combinations 
that have accumulated more than 10,000 kilometers (6,200 miles) shall be 
factored in accordance with Sec. 600.006(c) of this chapter. Complete 
exhaust emission tests shall be conducted for each emission data vehicle 
selection under Sec. 86.094-24(b)(1). The administrator may determine 
under Sec. 86.094-24(f) that no testing is required.
    (B) Emission tests for emission data vehicle(s) selected for testing 
under Sec. 86.094-24(b)(1)(v) shall be conducted at the mileage (2,000 
mile minimum) at which the engine-system combination is stabilized for 
emission testing or at the 6,436 kilometer (4,000 mile) test point under 
high-altitude conditions.
    (C) Exhaust and evaporative emission tests for emission data 
vehicle(s) selected for testing under Sec. 86.094-24(b)(1) (ii), (iii), 
and (iv) shall be conducted at the mileage (2,000 mile minimum) at which 
the engine-system combination is stabilized for emission testing or at 
the 6,436 kilometer (4,000 mile) test point under low-altitude 
conditions.
    (D) If the manufacturer recommends adjustments or modifications in 
order to conform to emission standards at high-altitude, such 
adjustments or modifications shall be made to the test vehicle selected 
under Sec. 86.094-24(b)(1) (v) and (viii) (in accordance with the 
instructions to be provided to the ultimate purchaser) before being 
tested under high-altitude conditions.
    (iii) [Reserved]
    (iv) All tests required by this subpart on emission data vehicles 
shall be conducted at a mileage equal to or greater than the mileage the 
manufacturer determines under paragraph (b)(4) of this section.
    (c)(1) Paragraph (c) of this section applies to heavy-duty engines.
    (2) Two types of service accumulation are applicable to heavy-duty 
engines, as described in paragraphs (c)(2) (i) and (ii) of this section.
    (i) Service accumulation on engines, subsystems, or components 
selected by the manufacturer under Sec. 86.094-24(c)(3)(i). The 
manufacturer determines the form and extent of this service 
accumulation, consistent with good engineering practice, and describes 
it in the application for certification.
    (ii) Dynamometer service accumulation on emission data engines 
selected under Sec. 86.094-24(b) (2) or (3). The manufacturer determines 
the engine operating schedule to be used for dynamometer service 
accumulation, consistent with good engineering practice. A single engine 
operating schedule shall be used for all engines in an engine family-
control system combination. Operating schedules may be different for 
different combinations.
    (3) Exhaust emission deterioration factors will be determined on the 
basis of the service accumulation described in paragraph (b)(2)(i) of 
this section and related testing, according to the manufacturer's 
procedures.
    (4) The manufacturer shall determine, for each engine family, the 
number of hours at which the engine system combination is stabilized (no 
less than 62 hours for catalyst equipped) for emission data testing. The 
manufacturer shall maintain, and provide to the Administrator if 
requested, a record of the rationale used in making this determination. 
The manufacturer may elect to accumulate 125 hours on each test engine 
within an engine family without making a determination. Any engine used 
to represent emission data engine selections under Sec. 86.094-24(b)(2) 
shall be equipped with an engine system combination that has accumulated 
at least the number of hours determined under this paragraph. Complete 
exhaust emission tests shall be

[[Page 266]]

conducted for each emission data engine selection under Sec. 86.094-
24(b)(2). Evaporative emission controls need not be connected provided 
normal operating conditions are maintained in the engine induction 
system. The Administrator may determine under Sec. 86.094-24(f) that no 
testing is required.
    (d)(1) Paragraph (d) of this section applies to both light-duty 
trucks and heavy-duty engines.
    (2)(i) The results of all emission testing shall be supplied to the 
Administrator. The manufacturer shall furnish to the Administrator 
explanation for voiding any test. The Administrator will determine if 
voiding the test was appropriate based upon the explanation given by the 
manufacturer for the voided test. Tests between test points may be 
conducted as required by the Administrator. Data from all tests 
(including voided tests) may be submitted weekly to the Administrator, 
but shall be air posted or delivered to the Administrator within 7 days 
after completion of the test. In addition, all test data shall be 
compiled and provided to the Administrator in accordance with 
Sec. 86.094-23. Where the Administrator conducts a test on a durability 
data vehicle at a prescribed test point, the results of that test will 
be used in the calculation of the deterioration factor.
    (ii) The results of all emission tests shall be recorded and 
reported to the Administrator. These test results shall be rounded, in 
accordance with ASTM E 29-67 (reapproved 1980) (as referenced in 
paragraph (a)(6)(iii) of this section), to the number of decimal places 
contained in the applicable emission standard expressed to one 
additional significant figure.
    (3) Whenever a manufacturer intends to operate and test a vehicle 
(or engine) which may be used for emission data, the manufacturer shall 
retain in its records all information concerning all emissions tests and 
maintenance, including vehicle (or engine) alterations to represent 
other vehicle (or engine) selections. This information shall be 
submitted, including the vehicle (or engine) description and 
specification information required by the Administrator, to the 
Administrator following the emission data test.
    (4)-(5) [Reserved]
    (6) Emission testing of any type with respect to any certification 
vehicle or engine other than that specified in this subpart is not 
allowed except as such testing may be specifically authorized by the 
Administrator.
[58 FR 4021, Jan. 12, 1993, as amended at 59 FR 36369, July 18, 1994; 62 
FR 11082, Mar. 11, 1997; 62 FR 44875, Aug. 22, 1997]



Sec. 86.094-28  Compliance with emission standards.

    (a)(1) Paragraph (a) of this section applies to lightduty vehicles.
    (2) Each exhaust and evaporative emission standard (and family 
particulate emission limit, as appropriate) of Sec. 86.094-8 applies to 
the emissions of vehicles for the appropriate useful life as defined in 
Secs. 86.094-2 and 86.094-8.
    (3) Since it is expected that emission control efficiency will 
change with mileage accumulation on the vehicle, the emission level of a 
vehicle which has accumulated mileage equal to the specified useful life 
will be used as the basis for determining compliance with the standard 
(or family particulate emission limit, as appropriate).
    (4) The procedure for determining compliance of a new motor vehicle 
with exhaust and evaporative emission standards (or family particulate 
emission limit, as appropriate) is as described in paragraphs (a)(4) (i) 
through (v) of this section, except where specified by paragraph (a)(7) 
of this section for the Production AMA Durability Program.
    (i) Separate emission deterioration factors shall be determined from 
the exhaust emission results of the durability data vehicle(s) for each 
engine-system combination. A separate evaporative emission deterioration 
factor shall be determined for each evaporative emission family-
evaporative emission control system combination from the testing 
conducted by the manufacturer (gasoline-fueled and methanol-fueled 
vehicles only).
    (A) The applicable results to be used, unless excluded by paragraph 
(a)(4)(i)(A)(4) of this section, in determining the exhaust emission 
deterioration factors for each engine-system combination shall be those 
described in paragraphs (a)(4)(i)(A) (1) through (3) of this section.

[[Page 267]]

    (1) All valid exhaust emission data from the tests required under 
Sec. 86.094-26(a)(4) except the zero-mile tests. This shall include the 
official test results, as determined in Sec. 86.094-29 for all tests 
conducted on all durability data vehicles of the combination selected 
under Sec. 86.094-24(c) (including all vehicles elected to be operated 
by the manufacturer under Sec. 86.094-24(c)(1)(ii)).
    (2) All exhaust emission data from the tests conducted before and 
after the scheduled maintenance provided in Sec. 86.094-25.
    (3) All exhaust emission data from tests required by maintenance 
approved under Sec. 86.094-25, in those cases where the Administrator 
conditioned his approval for the performance of such maintenance on the 
inclusion of such data in the deterioration factor calculation.
    (4) The manufacturer has the option of applying an outlier test 
point procedure to completed durability data within its certification 
testing program for a given model year. The outlier procedure will be 
specified by the Administrator. For any pollutant, durability data test 
points that are identified as outliers shall not be included in the 
determination of deterioration factors if the manufacturer has elected 
this option. The manufacturer shall specify to the Administrator before 
the certification of the first engine family for that model year, if it 
intends to use the outlier procedure. The manufacturer may not change 
procedures after the first engine family of the model year is certified. 
Where the manufacturer chooses to apply both the outlier procedure and 
averaging (as allowed under Sec. 86.094-26(a)(6)(i)) to the same data 
set, the outlier procedure shall be completed prior to applying the 
averaging procedure.
    (B)(1) Line crossing. For each exhaust constituent to which a 
standard in Sec. 86.094-8 applies, all applicable exhaust emission 
results shall be rounded to the nearest mile and plotted as a function 
of the mileage on the system. The best fit straight line, fitted by the 
method of least squares, shall be drawn through all these data points. 
The data for a given exhaust constituent will be acceptable for use in 
the calculation of deterioration factors only if the first official test 
point as determined in Sec. 86.094-26(a)(4)(i)(C), the interpolated 
intermediate useful life mile point, and the interpolated full useful 
life mile point on this line, as applicable, are each less than or equal 
to the respective low-altitude standards provided in Sec. 86.094-8. An 
exception to this where data are still acceptable is when a best fit 
straight line crosses an applicable standard but no data points exceeded 
the standard. This exception shall not apply when mileage accumulation 
has been curtailed before the durability useful life has been reached, 
under the provisions of Sec. 86.094-26(a)(4)(i)(B).
    (2) Exhaust deterioration factor determination. Multiplicative 
exhaust emission deterioration factors shall be calculated for each 
standard and for each engine-system combination from points on the 
regression line derived in paragraph (a)(4)(i)(B)(1) of this section, 
and in accordance with paragraphs (a)(4)(i)(B)(2) (i) and (ii) of this 
section.
    (i) Factor=Exhaust emissions at the useful life mileage for that 
standard divided by exhaust emissions at 4,000 miles.
    (ii) These interpolated values shall be carried out to a minimum of 
four places to the right of the decimal point before dividing one by the 
other to determine the deterioration factor. The results shall be 
rounded to three places to the right of the decimal point in accordance 
with ASTM E 29-67 (reapproved 1980) (``Standard recommended practice for 
indicating which places of figures are to be considered significant in 
specified limiting values,'' American Society for Testing and 
Materials). This incorporation by reference was approved by the Director 
of the Federal Register in acccordance with 5 U.S.C. 552(a) and 1 CFR 
part 51. Copies may be obtained from American Society for Testing and 
Materials, 1916 Race St., Philadelphia, PA 19103. Copies may be 
inspected at the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Air Docket 
Section, room M-1500, 401 M Street SW., Washington, DC 20460 or at the 
Office of the Federal Register, 800 North Capitol Street, NW., suite 
700, Washington, DC.
    (iii) When calculating intermediate and full useful life 
deterioration factors all data points should be included

[[Page 268]]

in the calculations, except that total hydrocarbon (THC) test points 
beyond the 50,000-mile (useful life) test point shall not be included in 
the calculations.
    (iv) The calculation specified in paragraph (a)(4)(i)(B)(2) of this 
section may be modified with advance approval of the Administrator for 
engine-system combinations which are certified under the Alternative 
Service Accumulation Durability Program specified in Sec. 86.094-13(e).
    (C) Evaporative deterioration factor determination. An evaporative 
emissions deterioration factor (gasoline-fueled and methanol-fueled 
vehicles only) shall be determined from the testing conducted as 
described in Sec. 86.094-21(b)(4)(i) and in accordance with paragraphs 
(a)(4)(i)(C) (1) and (2) of this section, for each evaporative emission 
family-evaporative emission control system combination to indicate the 
evaporative emission level at the applicable useful life relative to the 
evaporative emission level at 4,000 miles.
    (1) Factor=Evaporative emission level at the useful life mileage for 
that standard minus the evaporative emission level at 4,000 miles.
    (2) The factor shall be established to a minimum of two places to 
the right of the decimal.
    (ii)(A)(1) The official exhaust emission test results for each 
applicable exhaust emission standard for each emission data vehicle at 
the selected test point shall be multiplied by the appropriate 
deterioration factor: Provided, That if a deterioration factor as 
computed in paragraph (a)(4)(i)(B) of this section is less than one, 
that deterioration factor shall be one for the purposes of this 
paragraph.
    (2) The calculation specified in paragraph (a)(4)(ii)(A)(1) of this 
section may be modified with advance approval of the Administrator for 
engine-system combinations which are certified under the Alternative 
Service Accumulation Durability Program specified in Sec. 86.094-13(e).
    (B) The official evaporative emission test results (gasoline-fueled 
and methanol-fueled vehicles only) for each evaporative emission data 
vehicle at the selected test point shall be adjusted by addition of the 
appropriate deterioration factor, provided that if a deterioration 
factor as computed in paragraph (a)(4)(i)(C) of this section is less 
than zero, that deterioration factor shall be zero for the purposes of 
this paragraph.
    (iii) The emissions to compare with the standard (or the family 
particulate emission limit, as appropriate) shall be the adjusted 
emissions of paragraphs (a)(4)(ii) (A) and (B) of this section for each 
emission data vehicle. Before any emission value is compared with the 
standard (or the family particulate emission limit, as appropriate) it 
shall be rounded, in accordance with ASTM E 29-67 (reapproved 1980) (as 
referenced in paragraph (a)(4)(i)(B)(2)(ii) of this section), to two 
significant figures. The rounded emission values may not exceed the 
standard (or the family particulate emission limit, as appropriate).
    (iv) Every test vehicle of an engine family must comply with the 
exhaust emission standards (or the family particulate emission limit, as 
appropriate), as determined in paragraph (a)(4)(iii) of this section, 
before any vehicle in that family may be certified.
    (v) Every test vehicle of an evaporative emission family must comply 
with the evaporative emission standard, as determined in paragraph 
(a)(4)(iii) of this section, before any vehicle in that family may be 
certified.
    (5) If a manufacturer chooses to change the level of any family 
particulate emission limit(s) in the particulate averaging program, 
compliance with the new limit(s) must be based upon existing 
certification data.
    (6) If a manufacturer chooses to participate in the diesel 
particulate averaging program, the production-weighted average of the 
family particulate emission limits of all affected engine families must 
comply with the particulate standards in Sec. 86.094-8(a)(1)(iv), or the 
composite particulate standard defined in Sec. 86.094-2, as appropriate, 
at the end of the production year.
    (7) The procedure to determine the compliance of new motor vehicles 
in the Production AMA Durability Program described in Sec. 86.094-13 is 
the same as described in paragraphs (a)(4) (iii) through (v) of this 
section. For the engine families that are included in the Production AMA 
Durability Program,

[[Page 269]]

the exhaust emission deterioration factors used to determine compliance 
shall be those that the Administrator has approved under Sec. 86.094-13. 
The evaporative emission deterioration factor for each evaporative 
emission family shall be determined and applied according to paragraph 
(a)(4) of this section. The procedures to determine the minimum exhaust 
emission deterioration factors required under Sec. 86.094-13(d) are as 
described in paragraphs (a)(7) (i) and (ii) of this section.
    (i) Separate deterioration factors shall be determined from the 
exhaust emission results of the durability data vehicles for each 
emission standard applicable under Sec. 86.094-8, for each engine family 
group. The evaporative emission deterioration factor for each 
evaporative family will be determined and applied in accordance with 
paragraph (a)(4) of this section.
    (ii) The deterioration factors for each engine family group shall be 
determined by the Administrator using historical durability data from as 
many as three previous model years. These data will consist of 
deterioration factors generated by durability data vehicles representing 
certified engine families and of deterioration factors from vehicles 
selected under Sec. 86.094-24(h) . The Administrator shall determine how 
these data will be combined for each engine family group.
    (A) The test result to be used in the calculation of each 
deterioration factor to be combined for each engine family group shall 
be those test results specified in paragraph (a)(4)(i)(A) of this 
section.
    (B) For each durability data vehicle selected under Sec. 86.094-
24(h), all applicable exhaust emission results shall be plotted as a 
function of the mileage on the system rounded to the nearest mile, and 
the best fit straight lines, fitted by method of least squares, shall be 
drawn through all these data points. The exhaust deterioration factor 
for each durability data vehicle shall be calculated as specified in 
paragraph (a)(4)(i)(B) of this section.
    (C) Line-crossing. The line-crossing criteria of Sec. 86.094-28 
(a)(4)(i)(B) apply.
    (1) The Administrator will not accept for certification line-
crossing data from preproduction durability data vehicles selected under 
Sec. 86.094-24(c).
    (2) The Administrator will not accept for certification line-
crossing data from production durability data vehicles selected under 
Sec. 86.094-24(h)(1) unless the 4,000-mile test result multiplied by the 
engine family group deterioration factor does not exceed the applicable 
emission standards. The deterioration factors used for this purpose 
shall be those that were used in the certification of the production 
vehicle. Manufacturers may calculate this product immediately after the 
4,000-mile test of the vehicle. If the product exceeds the applicable 
standards, the manufacturer may, with the approval of the Administrator, 
discontinue the vehicle and substitute a new vehicle. The manufacturer 
may continue the original vehicle, but the data will not be acceptable 
if line crossing occurs.
    (b)(1) Paragraph (b) of this section applies to light-duty trucks.
    (2) Each exhaust and evaporative emission standard (and family 
particulate emission limit, as appropriate) of Sec. 86.094-9 applies to 
the emissions of vehicles for the appropriate useful life as defined in 
Secs. 86.094-2 and 86.094-9.
    (3) Since emission control efficiency generally decreases with the 
accumulation of mileage on the vehicle, deterioration factors will be 
used in combination with emission data vehicle test results as the basis 
for determining compliance with the standards (or family emission 
limits, as appropriate).
    (4)(i) Paragraph (b)(4) of this section describes the procedure for 
determining compliance of a new vehicle with exhaust emission standards 
(or family emission limits, as appropriate), based on deterioration 
factors. If the manufacturer certifies under the Standard Self-Approval 
Program as specified in Sec. 86.094-13(f), the manufacturer supplies the 
deterioration factors. If the manufacturer certifies under the 
Alternative Service Accumulation Durability Program as specified in 
Sec. 86.094-13(e), the applicable procedure for the determination of 
deterioration factors for light-duty trucks is the same as that 
described in paragraph (a)(4) of this section for light-duty vehicles.
    (ii) Separate exhaust emission deterioration factors, determined 
from

[[Page 270]]

tests of vehicles, engines, subsystems, or components conducted by the 
manufacturer, shall be supplied for each standard and for each engine-
system combination.
    (iii) The official exhaust emission results for each applicable 
exhaust emission standard for each emission data vehicle at the selected 
test point shall be adjusted by multiplication by the appropriate 
deterioration factor. However, if the deterioration factor supplied by 
the manufacturer is less than one, it shall be one for the purposes of 
this paragraph.
    (iv) The emission values to compare with the standards (or family 
emission limits, as appropriate) shall be the adjusted emission values 
of paragraph (b)(4)(iii) of this section rounded to two significant 
figures in accordance with ASTM E 29-67 (reapproved 1980) (as referenced 
in paragraph (a)(4)(i)(B)(2)(ii) of this section) for each emission data 
engine.
    (5)(i) Paragraphs (b)(5)(i) (A) and (B) of this section apply only 
to manufacturers electing to participate in the particulate averaging 
program.
    (A) If a manufacturer chooses to change the level of any family 
particulate emission limit(s), compliance with the new limit(s) must be 
based upon existing certification data.
    (B) The production-weighted average of the family particulate 
emission limits of all applicable engine families, rounded to two 
significant figures in accordance with ASTM E 29-67 (reapproved 1980) 
(as referenced in paragraph (a)(4)(i)(B)(2)(ii) of this section), must 
comply with the particulate standards in Sec. 86.094-9(a)(1)(iv) or 
(d)(1)(iv), or the composite particulate standard as defined in 
Sec. 86.094-2, as appropriate, at the end of the product year.
    (ii) Paragraphs (b)(5)(ii) (A) and (B) of this section apply only to 
manufacturers electing to participate in the NOX averaging 
program.
    (A) If a manufacturer chooses to change the level of any family 
NOX emission limit(s), compliance with the new limit(s) must 
be based upon existing certification data.
    (B) The production-weighted average of the family NOX 
emission limits of all applicable engine families, rounded to two 
significant figures in accordance with ASTM E 29-67 (reapproved 1980) 
(as referenced in paragraph (a)(4)(i)(B)(2)(ii) of this section), must 
comply with the NOX emission standards of Sec. 86.094-
9(a)(1)(iii) (A) or (B) of Sec. 86.094-9(d)(1)(iii) (A) or (B), or the 
composite NOX standard as defined in Sec. 86.094-2, at the 
end of the product year.
    (6) [Reserved]
    (7)(i) Paragraph (b)(7) of this section describes the procedure for 
determining compliance of a new vehicle with evaporative emission 
standards. The procedure described here shall be used for all vehicles 
in all model years.
    (ii) The manufacturer shall determine, based on testing described in 
Sec. 86.091-21(b)(4)(i), and supply an evaporative emission 
deterioration factor for each evaporative emission family-evaporative 
emission control system combination. The factor shall be calculated by 
subtracting the emission level at the selected test point from the 
emission level at the useful life point.
    (iii) The official evaporative emission test results for each 
evaporative emission data vehicle at the selected test point shall be 
adjusted by the addition of the appropriate deterioration factor. 
However, if the deterioration factor supplied by the manufacturer is 
less than zero, it shall be zero for the purposes of this paragraph.
    (iv) The emission value to compare with the standards shall be the 
adjusted emission value of paragraph (b)(7)(iii) of this section rounded 
to two significant figures in accordance with ASTM E 29-67 (reapproved 
1980) (as referenced in paragraph (a)(4)(i)(B)(2)(ii) of this section) 
for each evaporative emission data vehicle.
    (8) Every test vehicle of an engine family must comply with all 
applicable standards (and family emission limits, as appropriate), as 
determined in paragraphs (b)(4)(iv) and (b)(7)(iv) of this section, 
before any vehicle in that family will be certified.
    (c)(1) Paragraph (c) of this section applies to heavy-duty engines.
    (2) The exhaust emission standards (or family emission limits, as 
appropriate) for Otto-cycle engines in Sec. 86.094-10 or for diesel-
cycle engines in

[[Page 271]]

Sec. 86.094-11 apply to the emissions of engines for their useful life.
    (3) Since emission control efficiency generally decreases with the 
accumulation of service on the engine, deterioration factors will be 
used in combination with emission data engine test results as the basis 
for determining compliance with the standards.
    (4)(i) Paragraph (c)(4) of this section describes the procedure for 
determining compliance of an engine with emission standards (or family 
emission limits, as appropriate), based on deterioration factors 
supplied by the manufacturer.
    (ii) Separate exhaust emission deterioration factors, determined 
from tests of engines, subsystems, or components conducted by the 
manufacturer, shall be supplied for each engine-system combination. For 
Otto-cycle engines, separate factors shall be established for transient 
HC (THCE), CO, and NOX; and idle CO, for those engines 
utilizing aftertreatment technology (e.g., catalytic converters). For 
diesel-cycle engines, separate factors shall be established for 
transient HC (THCE), CO, NOX, and exhaust particulate. For 
diesel-cycle smoke testing, separate factors shall also be established 
for the acceleration mode (designated as ``A''), the lugging mode 
(designated as ``B''), and peak opacity (designated as ``C'').
    (iii)(A) Paragraphs (c)(4)(iii)(A) (1) and (2) of this section apply 
to Otto-cycle heavy-duty engines.
    (1) Otto-cycle heavy-duty engines not utilizing aftertreatment 
technology (e.g., catalytic converters). For transient HC (THCE), CO, 
and NOX, the official exhaust emission results for each 
emission data engine at the selected test point shall be adjusted by the 
addition of the appropriate deterioration factor. However, if the 
deterioration factor supplied by the manufacturer is less than zero, it 
shall be zero for the purposes of this paragraph.
    (2) Otto-cycle heavy-duty engines utilizing aftertreatment 
technology (e.g., catalytic converters). For transient HC (THCE), CO, 
and NOX, and for idle CO, the official exhaust emission 
results for each emission data engine at the selected test point shall 
be adjusted by multiplication by the appropriate deterioration factor. 
However, if the deterioration factor supplied by the manufacturer is 
less than one, it shall be one for the purposes of this paragraph.
    (B) Paragraph (c)(4)(iii)(B) of this section applies to diesel-cycle 
heavy-duty engines.
    (1) Diesel-cycle heavy-duty engines not utilizing aftertreatment 
technology (e.g., particulate traps). For transient HC (THCE), CO, 
NOX, and exhaust particulate, the official exhaust emission 
results for each emission data engine at the selected test point shall 
be adjusted by the addition of the appropriate deterioration factor. 
However, if the deterioration factor supplied by the manufacturer is 
less than zero, it shall be zero for the purposes of this paragraph.
    (2) Diesel-cycle heavy-duty engines utilizing aftertreatment 
technology (e.g., particulate traps). For transient HC (THCE), CO, 
NOX, and exhaust particulate, the official exhaust emission 
results for each emission data engine at the selected test point shall 
be adjusted by multiplication by the appropriate deterioration factor. 
However, if the deterioration factor supplied by the manufacturer is 
less than one, it shall be one for the purposes of this paragraph.
    (3) Diesel-cycle heavy-duty engines only. For acceleration smoke 
(``A''), lugging smoke (``B''), and peak smoke (``C''), the official 
exhaust emission results for each emission data engine at the selected 
test point shall be adjusted by the addition of the appropriate 
deterioration factor. However, if the deterioration factor supplied by 
the manufacturer is less than zero, it shall be zero for the purposes of 
this paragraph.
    (iv) The emission values to compare with the standards (or family 
emission limits, as appropriate) shall be the adjusted emission values 
of paragraph (c)(4)(iii) of this section, rounded to the same number of 
significant figures as contained in the applicable standard in 
accordance with ASTM E 29-67 (reapproved 1980) (as referenced in 
paragraph (a)(4)(i)(B)(2)(ii) of this section), for each emission data 
engine.
    (5)-(6) [Reserved]
    (7) Every test engine of an engine family must comply with all 
applicable standards (or family emission limits,

[[Page 272]]

as appropriate), as determined in paragraph (c)(4)(iv) of this section, 
before any engine in that family will be certified.
    (d)(1) Paragraph (d) of this section applies to heavy-duty vehicles 
equipped with gasoline-fueled or methanol-fueled engines.
    (2) The applicable evaporative emission standard in Sec. 86.091-10 
or Sec. 86.094-11 applies to the emissions of vehicles for their useful 
life.
    (3)(i) For vehicles with a GVWR of up to 26,000 pounds, because it 
is expected that emission control efficiency will change during the 
useful life of the vehicle, an evaporative emission deterioration factor 
shall be determined from the testing described in Sec. 86.088-23(b)(3) 
for each evaporative emission family-evaporative emission control system 
combination to indicate the evaporative emission control system 
deterioration during the useful life of the vehicle (minimum 50,000 
miles). The factor shall be established to a minimum of two places to 
the right of the decimal.
    (ii) For vehicles with a GVWR of greater than 26,000 pounds, because 
it is expected that emission control efficiency will change during the 
useful life of the vehicle, each manufacturer's statement as required in 
Sec. 86.094-23(b) (4) (ii) shall include, in accordance with good 
engineering practice, consideration of control system deterioration.
    (4) The evaporative emission test results, if any, shall be adjusted 
by the addition of the appropriate deterioration factor, provided that 
if the deterioration factor as computed in paragraph (d)(3) of this 
section is less than zero, that deterioration factor shall be zero for 
the purposes of this paragraph.

paragraph (a)(4)(i)(B)(2)(ii) of this section), to two significant 
figures. The rounded emission values may not exceed the standard.
    (6) Every test vehicle of an evaporative emission family must comply 
with the evaporative emission standard, as determined in paragraph

Sec. 86.094-30  Certification.

    (a)(1)(i) If, after a review of the test reports and data submitted 
by the manufacturer, data derived from any inspection carried out under 
Sec. 86.091-7(c) and any other pertinent data or information, the 
Administrator determines that a test vehicle(s) (or test engine(s)) 
meets the requirements of the Act and of this subpart, he will issue a 
certificate of conformity with respect to such vehicle(s) (or engine(s)) 
except in cases covered by paragraphs (a) (1) (ii) and (c) of this 
section.
    (ii) Gasoline-fueled and methanol-fueled heavy-duty vehicles. If, 
after a review of the statement(s) of compliance submitted by the 
manufacturer under Sec. 86.094-23(b)(4) and any other pertinent data or 
information, the Administrator determines that the requirements of the 
Act and this subpart have been met, he will issue one certificate of 
conformity per manufacturer with respect to the evaporative emission 
family(ies) covered by paragraph (c) of this section.
    (2) Such certificate will be issued for such period not to exceed 
one model year as the Administrator may determine and upon such terms as 
he may deem necessary or appropriate to assure that any new motor 
vehicle (or new motor vehicle engine) covered by the certificate will 
meet the requirements of the Act and of this part.
    (3)(i) One such certificate will be issued for each engine family. 
For gasoline-fueled and methanol-fueled light-duty vehicles and light-
duty trucks, one such certificate will be issued for each engine family 
evaporative emission family combination.
    (A) Light-duty vehicles. Each certificate will certify compliance 
with no more than one set of in-use and certification standards (or 
family emission limits, as appropriate).
    (B) Light-duty trucks. Each certificate will certify compliance with 
no more than one set of in-use and certification standards (or family 
emission limits, as appropriate), except where there are both low-
altitude standards and high

[[Page 273]]

altitude standards applicable. The certificate shall state that it 
covers vehicles sold or delivered to an ultimate purchaser for principal 
use at a designated high-altitude location only if the vehicle conforms 
in all material respects to the design specifications that apply to 
those vehicles described in the application for certification at high 
altitude.
    (ii) For gasoline-fueled and methanol-fueled heavy-duty vehicles, 
one such certificate will be issued for each manufacturer and will 
certify compliance for those vehicles previously identified in that 
manufacturer's statement(s) of compliance as required in Sec. 86.094-
23(b)(4) (i) and (ii).
    (iii) For diesel-cycle light-duty vehicles and light-duty trucks, or 
diesel-cycle heavy-duty engines, included in the applicable particulate 
averaging program, the manufacturer may at any time during production 
elect to change the level of any family particulate emission limit by 
demonstrating compliance with the new limit as described in 
Secs. 86.094-28(a)(6) and 86.094-28(b)(5)(i) . New certificates issued 
under this paragraph will be applicable only for vehicles (or engines) 
produced subsequent to the date of issuance.
    (iv) For light-duty trucks or heavy-duty engines included in the 
applicable NOX averaging program, the manufacturer may at any 
time during production elect to change the level of any family 
NOX emission limit by demonstrating compliance with the new 
limit as described in Sec. 86.094-28(b)(5)(ii). New certificates issued 
under this paragraph will be applicable only for vehicles (or engines) 
produced subsequent to the day of issue.
    (4)(i) The adjustment or modification of any light-duty truck in 
accordance with instructions provided by the manufacturer for the 
altitude where the vehicle is principally used will not be considered a 
violation of section 203(a)(3) of the Clean Air Act (42 U.S.C. 7522 
(a)(3)).
    (ii) A violation of section 203(a)(1) of the Clean Air Act (42 
U.S.C. 7522(a)(1)) occurs when a manufacturer sells or delivers to an 
ultimate purchaser any light-duty vehicle or light-duty truck, subject 
to the regulations under the Act, under any of the conditions specified 
in the remainder of this paragraph.
    (A) When a light-duty vehicle or light-duty truck is not configured 
to meet high-altitude requirements:
    (1) At a designated high-altitude location, unless such manufacturer 
has reason to believe that such vehicle will not be sold to an ultimate 
purchaser for principal use at a designated high-altitude location; or
    (2) At a location other than a designated high-altitude location, 
when such manufacturer has reason to believe that such motor vehicle 
will be sold to an ultimate purchaser for principal use at a designated 
high-altitude location.
    (B) When a light-duty vehicle is not configured to meet low-altitude 
requirements, as provided in Sec. 86.094-8(i) :
    (1) At a designated low-altitude location, unless such manufacturer 
has reason to believe that such vehicle will not be sold to an ultimate 
purchaser for principal use at a designated low-altitude location; or
    (2) At a location other than a designated low-altitude location, 
when such manufacturer has reason to believe that such motor vehicle 
will be sold to an ultimate purchaser for principal use at a designated 
low-altitude location.
    (iii) A manufacturer shall be deemed to have reason to believe that 
a light-duty vehicle that has been exempted from compliance with 
emission standards at high-altitude, or a light-duty truck which is not 
configured to meet high-altitude requirements, will not be sold to an 
ultimate purchaser for principal use at a designated high-altitude 
location if the manufacturer has informed its dealers and field 
representatives about the terms of these high-altitude regulations, has 
not caused the improper sale itself, and has taken reasonable action 
which shall include, but not be limited to, either paragraph (a)(4)(iii) 
(A) or (B), and paragraph (a)(4)(iii)(C) of this section:
    (A) Requiring dealers in designated high-altitude locations to 
submit written statements to the manufacturer signed by the ultimate 
purchaser that a vehicle which is not configured to meet high-altitude 
requirements will not be used principally at a designated

[[Page 274]]

high-altitude location; requiring dealers in counties contiguous to 
designated high-altitude locations to submit written statements to the 
manufacturer, signed by the ultimate purchaser who represents to the 
dealer in the normal course of business that he or she resides in a 
designated high-altitude location, that a vehicle which is not 
configured to meet high-altitude requirements will not be used 
principally at a designated high-altitude location; and for each sale or 
delivery of fleets of ten or more such vehicles in a high-altitude 
location or in counties contiguous to high-altitude locations, requiring 
either the selling dealer or the delivering dealer to submit written 
statements to the manufacturer, signed by the ultimate purchaser who 
represents to the dealer in the normal course of business that he or she 
resides in a designated high-altitude location, that a vehicle which is 
not configured to meet high-altitude requirements will not be used 
principally at a designated high-altitude location. In addition, the 
manufacturer will make available to EPA, upon reasonable written request 
(but not more frequently than quarterly, unless EPA has demonstrated 
that it has substantial reason to believe that an improperly configured 
vehicle has been sold), sales, warranty, or other information pertaining 
to sales of vehicles by the dealers described above maintained by the 
manufacturer in the normal course of business relating to the altitude 
configuration of vehicles and the locations of ultimate purchasers; or
    (B) Implementing a system which monitors factory orders of low-
altitude vehicles by high-altitude dealers, or through other means, 
identifies dealers that may have sold or delivered a vehicle not 
configured to meet the high-altitude requirements to an ultimate 
purchaser for principal use at a designated high-altitude location; and

paragraph (a)(4)(iii) of this section that a dealer may have improperly 
sold or delivered a significant number of such vehicles to ultimate 
purchasers so residing, reminding the dealer in writing of the 
requirements of these regulations, and, where appropriate, warning the 
dealer that sale by the dealer of vehicles not configured to meet high-
altitude requirements may be contrary to the terms of its franchise 
agreement with the manufacturer and the dealer certification 
requirements of Sec. 85.2108 of this chapter.
    (iv) A manufacturer shall be deemed to have reason to believe that a 
light-duty vehicle which has been exempted from compliance with emission 
standards at low-altitude, as provided in Sec. 86.094-8(i), will not be 
sold to an ultimate purchaser for principal use at a designated low-
altitude location if the manufacturer has informed its dealers and field 
representatives about the terms of the high-altitude regulations, has 
not caused the improper sale itself, and has taken reasonable action 
which shall include, but not be limited to, either paragraph (a)(4)(iv) 
(A) or (B), and (a)(4)(iv)(C) of this section:
    (A) Requiring dealers in designated low-altitude locations to submit

system at the rated fuel delivery of the test engine.
    (iv) Gasoline-fueled and methanol-fueled heavy-duty vehicles. A 
statement of compliance submitted under Sec. 86.094-23(b)(4) (i) or (ii) 
shall represent all vehicles in the same evaporative emission family-
evaporative emission control system combination.
    (2) The Administrator will proceed as in paragraph (a) of this 
section with respect to the vehicles (or engines) belonging to an engine 
family or engine family-evaporative emission family combination (as 
applicable), all of which comply with all applicable standards (or 
family emission limits, as appropriate).
    (3) If after a review of the test reports and data submitted by the 
manufacturer, data derived from any additional testing conducted 
pursuant to Sec. 86.091-29, data or information derived from any 
inspection carried out under Sec. 86.094-7(d) or any other pertinent 
data or information, the Administrator determines that one or more test 
vehicles (or test engines) of the certification test fleet do not meet 
applicable standards (or family emission limits, as appropriate), he 
will notify the manufacturer in writing, setting forth the basis for his 
determination. Within 30 days following receipt of the notification, the 
manufacturer may request a hearing on the Administrator's determination. 
The request shall be in writing, signed by an authorized representative 
of the manufacturer and shall include a statement specifying the 
manufacturer's objections to the Administrator's determination and data

supporting data, the Administrator finds that the request raises a 
substantial factual issue, he shall provide the manufacturer a hearing 
in accordance with Sec. 86.078-6 with respect to such issue.
    (4) For light-duty vehicles and light-duty trucks the manufacturer 
may, at its option, proceed with any of the following alternatives with 
respect to an emission data vehicle determined not in compliance with 
all applicable standards (or family emission limits, as appropriate) for 
which it was tested:
    (i) Request a hearing under Sec. 86.078-6; or
    (ii) Remove the vehicle configuration (or evaporative vehicle 
configuration, as applicable) which failed, from his application:
    (A) If the failed vehicle was tested for compliance with exhaust 
emission standards (or family emission limits, as appropriate) only: The 
Administrator may select, in place of the failed vehicle, in accordance 
with the selection criteria employed in selecting the failed vehicle, a 
new emission data vehicle to be tested for exhaust emission compliance 
only; or
    (B) If the failed vehicle was tested for compliance with both 
exhaust and evaporative emission standards: The Administrator may 
select, in place of the failed vehicle, in accordance with the selection 
criteria employed in selecting the failed vehicle, a new emission data 
vehicle which will be tested for compliance with both exhaust and 
evaporative emission standards. If one vehicle cannot be selected in 
accordance with the selection criteria employed in selecting the failed 
vehicle, then two vehicles may be selected (i.e., one vehicle to satisfy 
the exhaust emission vehicle selection criteria and one vehicle to 
satisfy the evaporative emission vehicle selection criteria). The 
vehicle selected to satisfy the exhaust emission vehicle selection 
criteria will be tested for compliance with exhaust emission standards 
(or family emission limits, as appropriate) only. The vehicle selected 
to satisfy the evaporative emission vehicle selection criteria will be 
tested for compliance with both exhaust and evaporative emission 
standards; or
    (iii) Remove the vehicle configuration (or evaporative vehicle 
configuration, as applicable) which failed from the application and add 
a vehicle configuration(s) (or evaporative vehicle configuration(s), as 
applicable) not previously listed. The Administrator may require, if 
applicable, that the failed vehicle be modified to the new engine code 
(or evaporative emission code, as applicable) and demonstrate by testing 
that it meets applicable standards (or family emission limits, as 
appropriate)

[[Page 280]]

for which it was originally tested. In addition, the Administrator may 
select, in accordance with the vehicle selection criteria given in 
Sec. 86.094-24(b), a new emission data vehicle or vehicles. The vehicles 
selected to satisfy the exhaust emission vehicle selection criteria will 
be tested for compliance with exhaust emission standards (or family 
emission limits, as appropriate) only. The vehicles selected to satisfy 
the evaporative emission vehicle selection criteria will be tested for 
compliance with both exhaust and evaporative emission standards (or 
family emission limits, as appropriate); or
    (iv) Correct a component or system malfunction and show that with a 
correctly functioning system or component the failed vehicle meets 
applicable standards (or family emission limits, as appropriate) for 
which it was originally tested. The Administrator may require a new 
emission data vehicle, of identical vehicle configuration (or 
evaporative vehicle configuration, as applicable) to the failed vehicle, 
to be operated and tested for compliance with the applicable standards 
(or family emission limits, as appropriate) for which the failed vehicle 
was originally tested.
    (5) For heavy-duty engines the manufacturer may, at his option, 
proceed with any of the following alternatives with respect to any 
engine family represented by a test engine (s) determined not in 
compliance with applicable standards (or family emission limit, as 
appropriate):
    (i) Request a hearing under Sec. 86.078-6; or
    (ii) Delete from the application for certification the engines 
represented by the failing test engine. (Engines so deleted may be 
included in a later request for certification under Sec. 86.079-32.) The 
Administrator may then select in place of each failing engine an 
alternate engine chosen in accordance with selection criteria employed 
in selecting the engine that failed; or
    (iii) Modify the test engine and demonstrate by testing that it 
meets applicable standards. Another engine which is in all material 
respect the same as the first engine, as modified, may then be operated 
and tested in accordance with applicable test procedures.
    (6) If the manufacturer does not request a hearing or present the 
required data under paragraphs (b) (4) or (5) of this section (as 
applicable) of this section, the Administrator will deny certification.
    (c)(1) Notwithstanding the fact that any certification vehicle(s) 
(or certification engine(s)) may comply with other provisions of this 
subpart, the Administrator may withhold or deny the issuance of a 
certificate of conformity (or suspend or revoke any such certificate 
which has been issued) with respect to any such vehicle(s) (or 
engine(s)) if:
    (i) The manufacturer submits false or incomplete information in his 
application for certification thereof;
    (ii) The manufacturer renders inaccurate any test data which he 
submits pertaining thereto or otherwise circumvents the intent of the 
Act, or of this part with respect to such vehicle (or engine);
    (iii) Any EPA Enforcement Officer is denied access on the terms 
specified in Sec. 86.091-7(d) to any facility or portion thereof which 
contains any of the following:
    (A) The vehicle (or engine);
    (B) Any components used or considered for use in its modification or 
buildup into a certification vehicle (or certification engine);
    (C) Any production vehicle (or production engine) which is or will 
be claimed by the manufacturer to be covered by the certificate;
    (D) Any step in the construction of a vehicle (or engine) described 
in paragraph (c)(iii)(C) of this section;
    (E) Any records, documents, reports, or histories required by this 
part to be kept concerning any of the above; or
    (iv) Any EPA Enforcement Officer is denied ``reasonable assistance'' 
(as defined in Sec. 86.091-7(d) in examining any of the items listed in 
paragraph (c)(1)(iii) of this section.
    (2) The sanctions of withholding, denying, revoking, or suspending 
of a certificate may be imposed for the reasons in paragraphs (c)(1) 
(i), (ii), (iii), or (iv) of this section only when the infraction is 
substantial.

[[Page 281]]

    (3) In any case in which a manufacturer knowingly submits false or 
inaccurate information or knowingly renders inaccurate or invalid any 
test data or commits any other fraudulent acts and such acts contribute 
substantially to the Administrator's decision to issue a certificate of 
conformity, the Administrator may deem such certificate void ab initio.
    (4) In any case in which certification of a vehicle (or engine) is 
proposed to be withheld, denied, revoked, or suspended under paragraph 
(c)(1) (iii) or (iv) of this section, and in which the Administrator has 
presented to the manufacturer involved reasonable evidence that a 
violation of Sec. 86.091-7(d) in fact occurred, the manufacturer, if he 
wishes to contend that, even though the violation occurred, the vehicle 
(or engine) in question was not involved in the violation to a degree 
that would warrant withholding, denial, revocation, or suspension of 
certification under either paragraph (c)(1) (iii) or (iv) of this 
section, shall have the burden of establishing that contention to the 
satisfaction of the Administrator.
    (5) Any revocation or suspension of certification under paragraph 
(c)(1) of this section shall:
    (i) Be made only after the manufacturer concerned has been offered 
an opportunity for a hearing conducted in accordance with Sec. 86.078-6 
hereof; and
    (ii) Extend no further than to forbid the introduction into commerce 
of vehicles (or engines) previously covered by the certification which 
are still in the hands of the manufacturer, except in cases of such 
fraud or other misconduct as makes the certification invalid ab initlo.
    (6) The manufacturer may request in the form and manner specified in 
paragraph (b)(3) of this section that any determination made by the 
Administrator under paragraph (c)(1) of this section to withhold or deny 
certification be reviewed in a hearing conducted in accordance with 
Sec. 86.078-6. If the Administrator finds, after a review of the request 
and supporting data, that the request raises a substantial factual 
issue, he will grant the request with respect to such issue.
    (d)(1) For light-duty vehicles. Notwithstanding the fact that any 
vehicle configuration or engine family may be covered by a valid 
outstanding certificate of conformity, the Administrator may suspend 
such outstanding certificate of conformity in whole or in part with 
respect to such vehicle configuration or engine family if:
    (i) The manufacturer refuses to comply with the provisions of a test 
order issued by the Administrator pursuant to Sec. 86.603; or
    (ii) The manufacturer refuses to comply with any of the requirements 
of Sec. 86.603; or

activities related to entry and access as authorized in Sec. 86.606 of 
this part and in a warrant or court order presented to the manufacturer 
or the party in charge of a facility in question; or
    (vi) EPA Enforcement Officers are unable to conduct activities 
related to entry and access or to obtain ``reasonable assistance'' as 
authorized in Sec. 86.606 of this part because a manufacturer has 
located its facility in a foreign jurisdiction where local law prohibits 
those activities; or
    (vii) The manufacturer refuses to or in fact does not comply with 
Sec. 86.604(a), Sec. 86.605, Sec. 86.607, Sec. 86.608, or Sec. 86.610.
    (2) The sanction of suspending a certificate may not be imposed for 
the reasons in paragraph (d)(1) (i), (ii), or (vii) of this section 
where the refusal is caused by conditions and circumstances outside the 
control of the manufacturer which render it impossible to comply with 
those requirements.
    (3) The sanction of suspending a certificate may be imposed for the 
reasons in paragraph (d)(1) (iii), (iv), or (v) of this section only 
when the infraction is substantial.

inaccurate information or knowingly rendered inaccurate any test data or 
committed any other fraudulent acts,

[[Page 282]]

and such acts contributed substantially to the Administrator's original 
decision not to suspend or revoke a certificate of conformity in whole 
or in part, the Administrator may deem such certificate void from the 
date of such fraudulent act.
    (5) In any case in which certification of a vehicle is proposed to 
be suspended under paragraph (d)(1)(v) of this section and in which the

the vehicle configuration or engine family in question was not involved 
in the violation to a degree that would warrant suspension of 
certification under paragraph (d)(1)(v) of this section, the 
manufacturer shall have the burden of establishing the contention to the 
satisfaction of the Administrator.
    (6) Any suspension of certification under paragraph (d)(1) of this 
section shall:
    (i) Be made only after the manufacturer concerned has been offered 
an opportunity for a hearing conducted in accordance with Sec. 86.614;

    (2) The sanction of suspending a certificate may not be imposed for 
the reasons in paragraph (e)(1) (i), (ii), or (vii) of this section 
where such refusal or denial is caused by conditions and circumstances 
outside the control of the manufacturer which renders it impossible to 
comply with those requirements. Such conditions and circumstances shall 
include, but are not limited to, any uncontrollable factors which result 
in the temporary unavailability of equipment and personnel needed to 
conduct the required tests, such as equipment breakdown or failure or 
illness of personnel, but shall not include failure of the manufacturers 
to adequately plan for and provide the equipment and personnel needed to 
conduct the tests. The manufacturer will bear the burden of establishing 
the presence of the conditions and circumstances required by this 
paragraph.

has reason to believe that such vehicle will not be sold to an ultimate 
purchaser for principal use at a designated low-altitude location; or
    (2) At a location other than a designated low-altitude location, 
when such manufacturer has reason to believe that such motor vehicle 
will be sold to an ultimate purchaser for principal use at a designated 
low-altitude location.
    (iii) A manufacturer shall be deemed to have reason to believe that 
a light-

[[Page 300]]

duty vehicle or light-duty truck that has been exempted from compliance 
with emission standards at high altitude, will not be sold to an 
ultimate purchaser for principal use at a designated high altitude 
location if the manufacturer has informed its dealers and field 
representatives about the terms of those high altitude regulations, has 
not caused the improper sale itself, and has taken reasonable action 
which shall include, but shall not be limited to, either Sec. 86.094-
30(a)(4)(iii) (A) or (B), and Sec. 86.094-30(a)(4)(iii)(C).

complying with all provisions of Secs. 86.094-9 and 86.709-94 both 
during and after model year production.
    (ii) Failure to meet the required implementation schedule sales 
percentages as specified in Secs. 86.094-9 and 86.709-94 will be 
considered to be a failure to satisfy the conditions upon which the 
certificate(s) was issued and the individual vehicles sold in violation 
of the implementation schedule shall not be covered by the certificate.
    (iii) The manufacturer shall bear the burden of establishing to the 
satisfaction of the Administrator that the conditions upon which the

------------------------------------------------------------------------

    (ii) Optionally, a minimum of the percentage shown in table A96-15 
of a manufacturer's combined sales of the applicable model year's 
gasoline- and methanol-fueled light-duty vehicles, light-duty trucks, 
and heavy-duty vehicles shall not exceed the applicable standards.
    (iii) Small volume manufacturers, as defined in Sec. 86.092-14(b)(1) 
and (2), are exempt from the implementation schedule of table A96-15 of 
this section for model years 1996, 1997, and 1998. For small volume 
manufacturers, the standards of Sec. 86.090-8(b), and the associated 
test procedures, continue to apply until model year 1999, when 100 
percent compliance with the standards of this section is required. This 
exemption does not apply to small volume engine families as defined in 
Sec. 86.092-14(b)(5).
    (iv) For the 1996 model year, manufacturers may satisfy the testing 
requirements for federal certification to the evaporative standards of 
paragraph (b) of this section, except the fuel dispensing spitback test, 
by presenting test results from the certification procedures defined by 
the California Regulatory Requirements Applicable to the Evaporative 
Emissions Program (January 4, 1995). These requirements have been 
incorporated by reference (see Sec. 86.1).
    (c) No crankcase emissions shall be discharged into the ambient 
atmosphere from any 1996 and later model year Otto-cycle, or methanol-or 
gaseous-fueled diesel light-duty vehicle. This requirement is optional 
for 1996 model year gaseous-fueled light-duty vehicles.
    (d)-(f) [Reserved]
    (g) Any 1994 and later model year light-duty vehicle that a 
manufacturer wishes to certify for sale shall meet the emission 
standards under both low- and high-altitude conditions as specified in 
Sec. 86.082-2, except as provided in paragraphs (h) and (i) of this 
section. Vehicles shall meet emission standards under both low- and 
high-altitude conditions without manual adjustments or modifications. 
Any emission control device used to meet emission standards under high-
altitude conditions shall initially actuate (automatically) no higher 
than 4,000 feet above sea level.
    (h) The manufacturer may exempt 1994 and later model year vehicles 
from compliance at high altitude with the emission standards set forth 
in paragraphs (a) and (b) of this section if the vehicles are not 
intended for sale at high altitude and if the requirements of paragraphs 
(h) (1) and (2) of this section are met.
    (1) A vehicle configuration shall only be considered eligible for 
exemption under paragraph (h) of this section if the requirements of 
either paragraph (h)(1) (i), (ii), (iii), or (iv) of this section are 
met.
    (i) Its design parameters (displacement-to-weight ratio (D/W) and 
engine speed-to-vehicle-speed ratio (N/V)) fall within the exempted 
range for that manufacturer for that year. The exempted range is 
determined according to the following procedure:
    (A) The manufacturer shall graphically display the D/W and N/V data 
of all vehicle configurations it will offer for the model year in 
question. The axis of the abscissa shall be D/W (where (D) is the engine 
displacement expressed in cubic centimeters and (W) is the equivalent 
vehicle test weight expressed in pounds), and the axis of the ordinate 
shall be N/V (where (N) is the crankshaft speed expressed in revolutions 
per minute and (V) is the vehicle speed expressed in miles per hour). At 
the manufacturer's option, either the 1:1 transmission gear ratio or the 
lowest numerical gear ratio available in the transmission will be used 
to determine N/V. The gear selection must be the same for all N/V data 
points on the manufacturer's graph. For each transmission/axle ratio 
combination, only the lowest N/V value shall be used in the graphical 
display.
    (B) The product line is then defined by the equation, N/V=C(D/
W)-0.9, where the constant, C, is determined by the 
requirement that all the vehicle data points either fall on the line or 
lie to

[[Page 311]]

the upper right of the line as displayed on the graphs.
    (C) The exemption line is then defined by the equation, N/V=C(0.84 
D/W)-0.9, where the constant, C is the same as that found in 
paragraph (h)(1)(i)(B) of this section.
    (D) The exempted range includes all values of N/V and D/W which 
simultaneously fall to the lower left of the exemption line as drawn on 
the graph.
    (ii) Its design parameters fall within the alternate exempted range 
for that manufacturer that year. The alternate exempted range is 
determined by substituting rated horsepower (hp) for displacement (D) in 
the exemption procedure described in paragraph (h)(1)(i) of this section 
and by using the product line N/V=C(hp/W)-0.9.
    (A) Rated horsepower shall be determined by using the Society of 
Automotive Engineers Test Procedure J 1349, June 1990, Engine Power Test 
Code--Spark Ignition and Compression Ignition--Net Power Rating. This 
incorporation by reference was approved by the Director of the Federal 
Register in accordance with 5 U.S.C. 552(a) and 1 CFR part 51. Copies 
may be obtained from SAE International, 400 Commonwealth Drive, 
Warrendale, PA, 15096-0001. Copies may be inspected at U.S. EPA, OAR, 
401 M Street, SW., Washington, DC, 20460, or at the Office of the 
Federal Register, 800 North Capitol Street, NW., suite 700, Washington, 
DC. Any of the horsepower determinants within that test procedure may be 
used, as long as it is used consistently throughout the manufacturer's 
product line in any model year.
    (B) No exemptions will be allowed under paragraph (h)(1)(ii) of this 
section to any manufacturer that has exempted vehicle configurations as 
set forth in paragraph (h)(1)(i) of this section.
    (iii) Its acceleration time (the time it takes a vehicle to 
accelerate from 0 miles per hour to a speed not less than 40 miles per 
hour and not greater than 50 miles per hour) under high-altitude 
conditions is greater than the largest acceleration time under low-
altitude conditions for that manufacturer for that year. The procedure 
to be followed in making this determination is:
    (A) The manufacturer shall list the vehicle configuration and 
acceleration time under low-altitude conditions of that vehicle 
configuration which has the highest acceleration time under low-altitude 
conditions of all the vehicle configurations it will offer for the model 
year in question. The manufacturer shall also submit a description of 
the methodology used to make this determination.
    (B) The manufacturer shall then list the vehicle configurations and 
acceleration times under high-altitude conditions of all those vehicle 
configurations which have higher acceleration times under high-altitude 
conditions than the highest acceleration time at low altitude identified 
in paragraph (h)(1)(iii)(A) of this section.
    (iv) In lieu of performing the test procedure of paragraphs 
(h)(1)(iii) (A) and (B) of this section, its acceleration time can be 
estimated based on the manufacturer's engineering evaluation, in 
accordance with good engineering practice, to meet the exemption 
criteria of paragraph (h)(1)(iii) of this section.
    (2) A vehicle shall only be considered eligible for exemption under 
this paragraph if at least one configuration of its model type (and 
transmission configuration in the case of vehicles equipped with manual 
transmissions, excluding differences due to the presence of overdrive) 
is certified to meet emission standards under high-altitude conditions 
as specified in paragraphs (a) through (c) and paragraph (g) of this 
section. The Certificate of Conformity (the Certificate) covering any 
exempted configuration(s) will also apply to the corresponding non-
exempt configuration(s) required under this paragraph (h)(2). As a 
condition to the exemption, any suspension, revocation, voiding, or 
withdrawal of the Certificate as it applies to a non-exempt 
configuration for any reason will result in a suspension of the 
Certificate as it applies to the corresponding exempted configuration(s) 
of that model type, unless there is at least one other corresponding 
non-exempt configuration of the same model type still covered by the 
Certificate. The suspension of the

[[Page 312]]

Certificate as it applies to the exempted configuration(s) will be 
terminated when any one of the following occurs:
    (i) Another corresponding non-exempt configuration(s) receive(s) 
coverage under the Certificate; or
    (ii) Suspension of the Certificate as it applies to the 
corresponding non-exempt configuration(s) is terminated; or
    (iii) The Agency's action(s), with respect to suspension, 
revocation, voiding, or withdrawal of the Certificate as it applies to 
the corresponding non-exempt configuration(s), is reversed.
    (3) The sale of a vehicle for principal use at a designated high-
altitude location that has been exempted as set forth in paragraph (h) 
of this section will be considered a violation of section 203(a)(1) of 
the Clean Air Act.
    (i)(1) The manufacturers may exempt 1996 and later model year 
vehicles from compliance at low altitude with the emission standards set 
forth in paragraph (a) of this section and Sec. 86.090-8(b) if the 
vehicles:
    (i) Are not intended for sale at low altitude; and
    (ii) Are equipped with a unique, high-altitude axle ratio (rear-
wheel drive vehicles) or a unique, high-altitude drivetrain (front-wheel 
drive vehicles) with a higher N/V ratio than other configurations of 
that model type which are certified in compliance with the emission 
standards of paragraph (a) of this section and Sec. 86.090-8(b) under 
low-altitude conditions.
    (2) The sale of a vehicle for principal use at low altitude that has 
been exempted as set forth in paragraph (i)(1) of this section will be 
considered a violation of section 203(a)(1) of the Clean Air Act.
    (j) Any exempted light-duty vehicle that a manufacturer wishes to 
certify for sale under the provisions of Sec. 86.090-8 (h) or paragraph 
(i) of this section is subject to the provisions of subpart Q of this 
part.
    (k) Cold Temperature Carbon Monoxide (CO) Standards--Light-Duty 
Vehicles. Exhaust emissions from 1996 and later model year gasoline-
fueled light-duty vehicles shall not exceed the cold temperature CO 
standard of 10.0 grams per mile for an intermediate useful life of 
50,000 miles, as measured and calculated under the provisions set forth 
in subpart C of this part. This standard applies under both low and high 
altitude conditions.

Sec. 86.096-24  Test vehicles and engines.

    (a) General. This paragraph applies to the grouping of vehicles or 
engines into families.
    (1) The vehicles or engines covered by an application for 
certification will be divided into groupings of engines which are 
expected to have similar emission characteristics throughout their 
useful life. Each group of engines with similar emission characteristics 
is defined as a separate engine family.
    (2) To be classed in the same engine family, engines must be 
identical in all the respects listed in paragraphs (a)(2) (i) through 
(x) of this section.
    (i) The cylinder bore center-to-center dimensions.
    (ii) through (iii) [Reserved]
    (iv) The cylinder block configuration (air-cooled or water-cooled: 
L-6, 90 deg., V-8, and so forth).
    (v) The location of the intake and exhaust valves (or ports).
    (vi) The method of air aspiration.
    (vii) The combustion cycle.
    (viii) Catalytic converter characteristics.
    (ix) Thermal reactor characteristics.
    (x) Type of air inlet cooler (for example, intercoolers and after-
coolers) for diesel heavy-duty engines.
    (3)(i) Engines identical in all the respects listed in paragraph 
(a)(2) of this section may be further divided into different engine 
families if the Administrator determines that they may be expected to 
have different emission characteristics. This determination will be 
based upon a consideration of the features of each engine listed in 
paragraphs (a)(3)(i) (A) through (G) of this section.
    (A) The bore and stroke.
    (B) The surface-to-volume ratio of the nominally dimensioned 
cylinder at the top dead center positions.
    (C) The intake manifold induction port sizes and configuration.
    (D) The exhaust manifold port size and configuration.
    (E) The intake and exhaust valve sizes.
    (F) The fuel system.
    (G) The camshaft timing and ignition or injection timing 
characteristics.
    (ii) Light-duty trucks and heavy-duty engines produced in different 
model years and distinguishable in the respects listed in paragraph 
(a)(2) of this section are treated as belonging to a single engine 
family if the Administrator requires it, after determining that the 
engines may be expected to have similar emission deterioration 
characteristics.
    (4) Where engines are of a type which cannot be divided into engine 
families based upon the criteria listed in paragraphs (a)(2) and (3) of 
this section, the Administrator establishes families for those engines 
based upon those features most related to their emission 
characteristics. Engines that are eligible to be included in the same 
engine family based on the criteria in paragraphs (a)(2) and (a)(3)(i) 
of this section may be further divided into different engine families if 
the manufacturer determines that they may be expected to have different 
emission characteristics. This determination will be based upon a 
consideration of the features of each engine listed in paragraphs (a)(4) 
(i) through (iii) of this section.
    (i) The dimension from the center line of the crankshaft to the 
center line of the camshaft.
    (ii) The dimension from the center line of the crankshaft to the top 
of the cylinder block head face.
    (iii) The size of the intake and exhaust valves (or ports).
    (5) The gasoline-fueled and methanol-fueled light-duty vehicles and 
light-duty trucks covered by an application for certification will be 
divided into groupings which are expected to have similar evaporative 
emission characteristics throughout their useful life. Each group of 
vehicles with similar evaporative emission characteristics must be 
defined as a separate evaporative emission family.
    (6) For gasoline-fueled or methanol-fueled light-duty vehicles and 
light-duty trucks to be classed in the same evaporative emission family, 
vehicles must be similar with respect to the items listed in paragraphs 
(a)(6) (i) through (iii) of this section.
    (i) Type of vapor storage device (for example, canister, air 
cleaner, crankcase).
    (ii) Basic canister design.
    (iii) Fuel system.
    (7) Where vehicles are of a type which cannot be divided into 
evaporative

[[Page 320]]

emission families based on the criteria listed in paragraph (a)(2) of 
this section, the Administrator establishes families for those vehicles 
based upon the features most related to their evaporative emission 
characteristics.
    (8)(i) If the manufacturer elects to participate in the Production 
AMA Durability Program, the engine families covered by an application 
for certification must be grouped based upon similar engine design and 
emission control system characteristics. Each of these groups constitute 
a separate engine family group.
    (ii) To be classed in the same engine family group, engine families 
must contain engines identical in all of the respects listed in 
paragraphs (a)(8)(ii) (A) through (D) of this section.
    (A) The combustion cycle.
    (B) The cylinder block configuration (air-cooled or water-cooled: L-
6, V-8, rotary, etc.).
    (C) Displacement (engines of different displacement within 50 cubic 
inches or 15 percent of the largest displacement and contained within a 
multidisplacement engine family will be included in the same engine 
family group).
    (D) Catalytic converter usage and basic type (non-catalyst, 
oxidation catalyst only, three-way catalyst equipped).
    (9) Engine families identical in all respects listed in paragraph 
(a)(8) of this section may be further divided into different engine 
family groups if the Administrator determines that they are expected to 
have significantly different exhaust emission control system 
deterioration characteristics.
    (10) A manufacturer may request the Administrator to include in an 
engine family group engine families in addition to those grouped under 
the provisions of paragraph (a)(8) of this section. This request must be 
accompanied by information the manufacturer believes supports the 
inclusion of these additional engine families.
    (11) A manufacturer may combine into a single engine family group 
those light-duty vehicle and light-duty truck engine families which 
otherwise meet the requirements of paragraphs (a) (8) through (10) of 
this section.
    (12) Those vehicles covered by an application for certification 
which are equipped with gasoline-fueled or methanol-fueled heavy-duty 
engines will be divided into groupings of vehicles on the basis of 
physical features which are expected to affect evaporative emissions. 
Each group of vehicles with similar features must be defined as a 
separate evaporative emission family.
    (13) For gasoline-fueled or methanol-fueled heavy-duty vehicles to 
be classified in the same evaporative emission family, vehicles must be 
identical with respect to the items listed in paragraphs (a)(13) (i) and 
(ii) of this section.
    (i) Method of fuel/air metering (that is, carburetion versus fuel 
injection).
    (ii) Carburetor bowl fuel volume, within a 10 cc range.
    (14) For vehicles equipped with gasoline-fueled or methanol-fueled 
heavy-duty engines to be classified in the same evaporative emission 
control system, vehicles must be identical with respect to the items 
listed in paragraphs (a)(14) (i) through (ix) of this section.
    (i) Method of vapor storage.
    (ii) Method of carburetor sealing.
    (iii) Method of air cleaner sealing.
    (iv) Vapor storage working capacity, within a 20g range.

    (vi) Method of purging stored vapors.
    (vii) Method of venting the carburetor during both engine off and 
engine operation.
    (viii) Liquid fuel hose material.
    (ix) Vapor storage material.
    (15) Where vehicles equipped with gasoline-fueled or methanol-fueled 
heavy-duty engines are types which cannot be divided into evaporative 
emission family-control system combinations based on the criteria listed 
above, the Administrator establishes evaporative emission family-control 
system combinations for those vehicles based on features most related to 
their evaporative emission characteristics.
    (b) Emission data--(1) Light-duty vehicles and light-duty trucks. 
This paragraph applies to light-duty vehicle and light-duty truck 
emission data vehicles.
    (i) Vehicles are chosen to be operated and tested for emission data 
based upon engine family groupings. Within

[[Page 321]]

each engine family, one test vehicle is selected. The Administrator 
selects as the test vehicle the vehicle with the heaviest equivalent 
test weight (including options) within the family. If more than one 
vehicle meets this criterion, then within that vehicle grouping, the 
Administrator selects, in the order listed, the highest road-load power, 
largest displacement, the transmission with the highest numerical final 
gear ratio (including overdrive), the highest numerical axle ratio 
offered in that engine family, and the maximum fuel flow calibration.
    (ii) The Administrator selects one additional test vehicle from 
within each engine family. The additional vehicle selected is the 
vehicle expected to exhibit the highest emissions of those vehicles 
remaining in the engine family. If all vehicles within the engine family 
are similar, the Administrator may waive the requirements of this 
paragraph.
    (iii) Within an engine family and exhaust emission control system, 
the manufacturer may alter any emission data vehicle (or other vehicles 
such as current or previous model year emission data vehicles, fuel 
economy data vehicles, and development vehicles provided they meet 
emission data vehicles' protocol) to represent more than one selection 
under paragraph (b)(1) (i), (ii), (iv), or (vii) of this section.
    (iv) If the vehicles selected in accordance with paragraphs (b)(1) 
(i) and (ii) of this section do not represent each engine-system 
combination, then one vehicle of each engine-system combination not 
represented will be selected by the Administrator. The vehicle selected 
is the vehicle expected to exhibit the highest emissions of those 
vehicles remaining in the engine family.
    (v) For high-altitude exhaust emission compliance for each engine 
family, the manufacturer must follow one of the procedures described in 
paragraphs (b)(1)(v) (A) and (B) of this section.
    (A) The manufacturer must select for testing under high-altitude 
conditions the vehicle expected to exhibit the highest emissions from 
the nonexempt vehicles selected in accordance with Sec. 86.096-24(b)(1) 
(ii), (iii), and (iv); or
    (B) In lieu of testing vehicles according to paragraph (b)(1)(v)(A) 
of this section, a manufacturer may provide a statement in its 
application for certification that, based on the manufacturer's 
engineering evaluation of such high-altitude emission testing as the 
manufacturer deems appropriate, all light-duty vehicles and light-duty 
trucks not exempt under Sec. 86.090-8(h) or Sec. 86.094-9(h) comply with 
the emission standards at high altitude.
    (vi) If 90 percent or more of the engine family sales will be in 
California, a manufacturer may substitute emission data vehicles 
selected by the California Air Resources Board criteria for the 
selections specified in Sec. 86.096-24(b)(1) (i), (ii), and (iv).
    (vii)(A) Vehicles of each evaporative emission family are divided 
into evaporative emission control systems.
    (B) The Administrator selects the vehicle expected to exhibit the 
highest evaporative emissions from within each evaporative family to be 
certified. This vehicle is selected from among the vehicles represented 
by the exhaust emission data selections for the engine family, unless 
evaporative testing has already been completed on the vehicle expected 
to exhibit the highest evaporative emissions for the evaporative family 
as part of another engine family's testing.
    (C) If the vehicles selected in accordance with paragraph 
(b)(1)(vii)(B) of this section do not represent each evaporative 
emission control system then the Administrator selects the highest 
expected evaporative emission vehicle from within the unrepresented 
evaporative system.
    (viii) For high-altitude evaporative emission compliance for each 
evaporative emission family, the manufacturer must follow one of the 
procedures listed in paragraphs (b)(1)(viii) (A) and (B) of this 
section.
    (A) The manufacturer will select for testing under high-altitude 
conditions the one nonexempt vehicle previously selected under paragraph 
(b)(1)(vii) (B) or (C) of this section which is expected to have the 
highest level of evaporative emissions when operated at high altitude; 
or

[[Page 322]]

    (B) In lieu of testing vehicles according to Sec. 86.096-
24(b)(1)(viii)(A), a manufacturer may provide a statement in its 
application for certification that, based on the manufacturer's 
engineering evaluation of such high-altitude emission testing as the 
manufacturer deems appropriate, all light-duty vehicles and light-duty 
trucks not exempt under Sec. 86.090-8(h) or Sec. 86.094-9(h) comply with 
the emission standards at high altitude.
    (ix) Vehicles selected under paragraph (b)(1)(v)(A) of this section 
may be used to satisfy the requirements of paragraph (b)(1)(viii)(A) of 
this section.
    (x) [Reserved]
    (xi) For cold temperature CO exhaust emission compliance for each 
engine family, the Administrator will select for testing the vehicle 
expected to emit the highest emissions from the vehicles selected in 
accordance with paragraphs (b)(1) (i), (ii), (iii), and (iv) of this 
section. This vehicle is tested by the manufacturer in accordance with 
the test procedures in subpart C of this part or with alternative 
procedures requested by the manufacturer and approved in advance by the 
Administrator.
    (xii) For CST exhaust emission compliance for each engine family, 
the Administrator will select for testing one vehicle from among the 
vehicles selected in accordance with paragraphs (b)(1) (i) through (iv) 
of this section. This vehicle is tested by the manufacturer in 
accordance with the test procedures set forth in subpart O of this part.
    (2) Otto-cycle heavy-duty emission data engines. This paragraph 
applies to Otto-cycle heavy-duty emission data engines.
    (i) through (ii) [Reserved]
    (iii) The Administrator selects a maximum of two engines within each 
engine family based upon features indicating that they may have the 
highest emission levels of the engines in the engine family in 
accordance with the criteria described in paragraphs (b)(2)(iii) (A) and 
(B) of this section.
    (A) The Administrator selects one emission data engine first based 
on the largest displacement within the engine family. Then from those 
within the largest displacement the Administrator selects, in the order 
listed, the engine with the highest fuel flow at the speed of maximum 
rated torque, with the most advanced spark timing, with no EGR or lowest 
EGR flow, and with no air pump or with the lowest actual flow air pump.
    (B) The Administrator selects one additional engine from within each 
engine family. The engine selected is the engine expected to exhibit the 
highest emissions of those engines remaining in the engine family. If 
all engines within the engine family are similar, the Administrator may 
waive the requirements of this paragraph.
    (iv) If the engines selected in accordance with paragraph 
(b)(2)(iii) of this section do not represent each engine displacement-
exhaust emission control system combination, then the Administrator 
selects one engine of each engine displacement-exhaust emission control 
system combination not represented.
    (v) Within an engine family/displacement/control system combination, 
the manufacturer may alter any emission data engine (or other engine 
including current or previous model year emission data engines and 
development engines provided they meet the emission data engines' 
protocol) to represent more than one selection under paragraph 
(b)(2)(iii) of this section.
    (3) Diesel heavy-duty emission data engines. This paragraph applies 
to diesel-cycle heavy-duty emission data engines.
    (i) Engines will be chosen to be run for emission data based upon 
engine family groupings. Within each engine family, the requirements of 
paragraphs (b)(3) (i) through (iv) of this section must be met.
    (ii) Engines of each engine family will be divided into groups based 
upon their exhaust emission control systems. One engine of each engine 
system combination must be run for smoke emission data and gaseous 
emission data. Either the complete gaseous emission test or the complete 
smoke test may be conducted first. Within each combination, the engine 
that features the highest fuel feed per stroke, primarily at the speed 
of maximum rated torque and secondarily at rated speed, will usually be 
selected. If there are military engines with higher fuel rates than 
other engines in the same

[[Page 323]]

engine system combinations, then one military engine is also selected. 
The engine with the highest fuel feed per stroke is usually the one 
selected.
    (iii) The Administrator may select a maximum of one additional 
engine within each engine-system combination based upon features 
indicating that it may have the highest emission levels of the engines 
of that combination. In selecting this engine, the Administrator will 
consider such features as the injection system, fuel system, compression 
ratio, rated speed, rated horsepower, peak torque speed, and peak 
torque.
    (iv) Within an engine family control system combination, the 
manufacturer may alter any emission data engine (or other engine 
including current or previous model year emission data engines and 
development engines provided they meet the emission data engines' 
protocol) to represent more than one selection under paragraphs (b)(3) 
(ii) and (iii) of this section.
    (c) Durability data--(1) Light-duty vehicle durability data 
vehicles. This paragraph applies to light-duty vehicle durability data 
vehicles.
    (i) A durability data vehicle is selected by the Administrator to 
represent each engine-system combination. The vehicle selected must be 
of the engine displacement with the largest projected sales volume of 
vehicles with that control-system combination in that engine family and 
is designated by the Administrator as to transmission type, fuel system, 
inertia weight class, and test weight.
    (ii) A manufacturer may elect to operate and test additional 
vehicles to represent any engine-system combination. The additional 
vehicles must be of the same engine displacement, transmission type, 
fuel system, and inertia weight class as the vehicle selected for that 
engine-system combination in accordance with the provisions of paragraph 
(c)(1)(i) of this section. Notice of an intent to operate and test 
additional vehicles must be given to the Administrator no later than 30 
days following notification of the test fleet selection.
    (2) Light-duty trucks. This paragraph applies to vehicles, engines, 
subsystems, or components used to establish exhaust emission 
deterioration factors for light-duty trucks.
    (i) The manufacturer must select the vehicles, engines, subsystems, 
or components to be used to determine exhaust emission deterioration 
factors for each engine-family control system combination. Whether 
vehicles, engines, subsystems, or components are used, they must be 
selected so that their emission deterioration characteristics may be 
expected to represent those of in-use vehicles, based on good 
engineering judgment.
    (ii) [Reserved]
    (3) Heavy-duty engines. This paragraph applies to engines, 
subsystems, or components used to establish exhaust emission 
deterioration factors for heavy-duty engines.
    (i) The manufacturer must select the engines, subsystems, or 
components to be used to determine exhaust emission deterioration 
factors for each engine-family control system combination. Whether 
engines, subsystems, or components are used, they must be selected so 
that their emission deterioration characteristics may be expected to 
represent those of in-use engines, based on good engineering judgment.
    (ii) [Reserved]
    (d) For purposes of testing under Sec. 86.094-26 (a)(9) or (b)(11), 
the Administrator may require additional emission data vehicles (or 
emission data engines) and durability data vehicles (light-duty vehicles 
only) identical in all material respects to vehicles (or engines) 
selected in accordance with paragraphs (b) and (c) of this section, 
provided that the number of vehicles (or engines) selected may not 
increase the size of either the emission data fleet or the durability 
data fleet by more than 20 percent or one vehicle (or engine), whichever 
is greater.
    (e)(1) [Reserved]
    (2) Any manufacturer may request to certify engine families with 
combined total sales of fewer than 10,000 light-duty vehicles, light-
duty trucks, heavy-duty vehicles, and heavy-duty engines utilizing the 
procedures contained in Sec. 86.094-14 for emission data vehicle 
selection and determination of deterioration factors. The deterioration 
factors are applied only to entire engine families.

[[Page 324]]

    (f) Carryover and carryacross of durability and emission data. In 
lieu of testing an emission data or durability data vehicle (or engine) 
selected under paragraph (b) or (c) of this section, and submitting data 
therefore, a manufacturer may, with the prior written approval of the 
Administrator, submit exhaust emission data and/or evaporative emission 
data, as applicable on a similar vehicle (or engine) for which 
certification has previously been obtained or for which all applicable 
data required under Sec. 86.096-23 has previously been submitted.
    (g) This paragraph applies to light-duty vehicles and light-duty 
trucks, but does not apply to the production vehicles selected under 
paragraph (h) of this section.
    (1)(i) Where it is expected that more than 33 percent of a carline, 
within an engine-system combination, will be equipped with an item 
(whether that item is standard equipment or an option), the full 
estimated weight of that item must be included in the curb weight 
computation for each vehicle available with that item in that carline, 
within that engine-system combination.
    (ii) Where it is expected that 33 percent or less of the carline, 
within an engine-system combination, will be equipped with an item 
(whether that item is standard equipment or an option), no weight for 
that item will be added in computing the curb weight for any vehicle in 
that carline, within that engine-system combination, unless that item is 
standard equipment on the vehicle.
    (iii) In the case of mutually exclusive options, only the weight of 
the heavier option will be added in computing the curb weight.
    (iv) Optional equipment weighing less than three pounds per item 
need not be considered.
    (2)(i) Where it is expected that more than 33 percent of a carline, 
within an engine-system combination, will be equipped with an item 
(whether that item is standard equipment or an option) that can 
reasonably be expected to influence emissions, then such items must 
actually be installed (unless excluded under paragraph (g)(2)(ii) of 
this section) on all emission data and durability data vehicles of that 
carline, within that engine-system combination, on which the items are 
intended to be offered in production. Items that can reasonably be 
expected to influence emissions are: air conditioning, power steering, 
power brakes, and other items determined by the Administrator.
    (ii) If the manufacturer determines by test data or engineering 
evaluation that the actual installation of the optional equipment 
required by paragraph (g)(2)(i) of this section does not affect the 
emissions or fuel economy values, the optional equipment need not be 
installed on the test vehicle.
    (iii) The weight of the options must be included in the design curb 
weight and must also be represented in the weight of the test vehicles.
    (iv) The engineering evaluation, including any test data, used to 
support the deletion of optional equipment from test vehicles, must be 
maintained by the manufacturer and be made available to the 
Administrator upon request.
    (3) Where it is expected that 33 percent or less of a carline, 
within an engine-system combination, will be equipped with an item 
(whether that item is standard equipment or an option) that can 
reasonably be expected to influence emissions, that item may not be 
installed on any emission data vehicle or durability data vehicle of 
that carline, within that engine-system combination, unless that item is 
standard equipment on that vehicle or specifically required by the 
Administrator.
    (h) Production AMA Durability Program durability data vehicles. This 
paragraph applies to light-duty vehicle durability data vehicles 
selected under the Production AMA Durability Program described in 
Sec. 86.094-13.
    (1) In order to update the durability data to be used to determine a 
deterioration factor for each engine family group, the Administrator 
will select durability data vehicles from the manufacturer's production 
line. Production vehicles will be selected from each model year's 
production for those vehicles certified using the Production AMA 
Durability Program procedures.

[[Page 325]]

    (i) The Administrator selects the production durability data vehicle 
designs from the designs that the manufacturer offers for sale. For each 
model year and for each engine family group, the Administrator may 
select production durability data vehicle designs of equal number to the 
number of engine families within the engine family group, up to a 
maximum of three vehicles.
    (ii) The production durability data vehicles representing the 
designs selected in paragraph (h)(1)(i) of this section are randomly 
selected from the manufacturer's production. The Administrator makes 
these random selections unless the manufacturer (with prior approval of 
the Administrator) elects to make the random selections.
    (iii) The manufacturer may select additional production durability 
data vehicle designs from within the engine family group. The production 
durability data vehicles representing these designs must be randomly 
selected from the manufacturer's production in accordance with paragraph 
(h)(1)(ii) of this section.
    (iv) For each production durability data vehicle selected under 
paragraph (h)(1) of this section, the manufacturer must provide to the 
Administrator (before the vehicle is tested or begins service 
accumulation) the vehicle identification number. Before the vehicle 
begins service accumulation the manufacturer must also provide the 
Administrator with a description of the durability data vehicle as 
specified by the Administrator.
    (v) In lieu of testing a production durability data vehicle selected 
under paragraph (h)(1) of this section, and submitting data therefrom, a 
manufacturer may, with the prior written approval of the Administrator, 
submit exhaust emission data from a production vehicle of the same 
configuration for which all applicable data has previously been 
submitted.
    (2) If, within an existing engine family group, a manufacturer 
requests to certify vehicles of a new design, engine family, emission 
control system, or with any other durability-related design difference, 
the Administrator determines if the existing engine family group 
deterioration factor is appropriate for the new design. If the 
Administrator cannot make this determination or deems the deterioration 
factor not appropriate, the Administrator selects preproduction 
durability data vehicles under the provisions of paragraph (c) of this 
section. If vehicles are then certified using the new design, the 
Administrator may select production vehicles with the new design under 
the provisions of paragraph (h)(1) of this section.
    (3) If a manufacturer requests to certify vehicles of a new design 
that the Administrator determines are a new engine family group, the 
Administrator selects preproduction durability data vehicles under the 
provisions of paragraph (c) of this section. If vehicles are then 
certified using the new design, the Administrator may select production 
vehicles of that design under the provisions of paragraph (h)(1) of this 
section.

    (B) Carbon monoxide: 0.5%.
    (2) The standards set forth in paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) 
of this section refer to the exhaust emitted over a driving schedule as 
set forth in subpart B of this part and measured and calculated in 
accordance with those procedures. The test weight basis for light light-
duty trucks, for the purposes of determining equivalent test weight as 
prescribed in Sec. 86.129-94, shall be loaded vehicle weight. The test 
weight basis for heavy light-duty trucks, for the purposes of 
determining equivalent test weight as prescribed in Sec. 86.129-94, 
shall be adjusted loaded vehicle weight. The standard set forth in 
paragraph (a)(1)(iii) of this section refers to the exhaust emitted at 
curb idle and measured and calculated in accordance with the procedures 
set forth in subpart P of this part.
    (3) The standards set forth in paragraph (a)(1)(iv) of this section 
refer to the exhaust emitted during the CST as set forth in subpart O of 
this part and measured and calculated in accordance with those 
provisions.
    (b) [Reserved]. For guidance see Sec. 86.096-9.
    (c) No crankcase emissions shall be discharged into the ambient 
atmosphere from any 1997 and later model year light-duty truck.
    (d) through (f) [Reserved]
    (g) Any model year 1997 and later light-duty truck that a 
manufacturer wishes to certify for sale shall meet the emission 
standards under both low- and high-altitude conditions as specified in 
Sec. 86.082-2, except as provided in paragraphs (h) and (i) of this 
section. Vehicles shall meet emission standards under both low- and 
high-altitude conditions without manual adjustments or modifications. 
Any emission control

[[Page 331]]

device used to meet emission standards under high-altitude conditions 
shall initially actuate (automatically) no higher than 4,000 feet above 
sea level.
    (h) The manufacturer may exempt 1997 and later model year light-duty 
trucks from compliance at high altitude with the emission standards set 
forth in paragraphs (a) and (b) of this section, if the vehicles are not 
intended for sale at high altitude and if the requirements of paragraphs 
(h) (1) and (2) of this section are met.
    (1) A vehicle configuration shall only be considered eligible for 
exemption under paragraph (h) of this section if the requirements of any 
of paragraphs (h)(1) (i), (ii), (iii), or (iv) of this section are met.
    (i) Its design parameters (displacement-to-weight ratio (D/W) and 
engine speed-to-vehicle-speed ratio (N/V)) fall within the exempted 
range for that manufacturer for that year. The exempted range is 
determined according to the following procedure:
    (A) The manufacturer shall graphically display the D/W and N/V data 
of all vehicle configurations it will offer for the model year in 
question. The axis of the abscissa shall be D/W (where (D) is the engine 
displacement expressed in cubic centimeters and (W) is the gross vehicle 
weight (GVW) expressed in pounds), and the axis of the ordinate shall be 
N/V (where (N) is the crankshaft speed expressed in revolutions per 
minute and (V) is the vehicle speed expressed in miles per hour). At the 
manufacturer's option, either the 1:1 transmission gear ratio or the 
lowest numerical gear ratio available in the transmission will be used 
to determine N/V. The gear selection must be the same for all N/V data 
points on the manufacturer's graph. For each transmission/axle ratio 
combination, only the lowest N/V value shall be used in the graphical 
display.
    (B) The product line is then defined by the equation, N/V=C(D/
W)-0.9 where the constant, C, is determined by the 
requirement that all the vehicle data points either fall on the line or 
lie to the upper right of the line as displayed on the graphs.
    (C) The exemption line is then defined by the equation, N/V=C(0.84 
D/W)-0.9 where the constant, C, is the same as that found in 
paragraph (h)(1)(i)(B) of this section.
    (D) The exempted range includes all values of N/V and D/W which 
simultaneously fall to the lower left of the exemption line as drawn on 
the graph.
    (ii) Its design parameters fall within the alternate exempted range 
for that manufacturer that year. The alternate exempted range is 
determined by substituting rated horsepower (hp) for displacement (D) in 
the exemption procedure described in paragraph (h)(1)(i) of this section 
and by using the product line N/V=C(hp/W)-0.9.
    (A) Rated horsepower shall be determined by using the Society of 
Automotive Engineers Test Procedure J 1349 (copies may be obtained from 
SAE, 400 Commonwealth Dr., Warrendale, PA 15096), or any subsequent 
version of that test procedure. Any of the horsepower determinants 
within that test procedure may be used, as long as it is used 
consistently throughout the manufacturer's product line in any model 
year.
    (B) No exemptions will be allowed under paragraph (h)(1)(ii) of this 
section to any manufacturer that has exempted vehicle configurations as 
set forth in paragraph (h)(1)(i) of this section.
    (iii) Its acceleration time (the time it takes a vehicle to 
accelerate from 0 to a speed not less than 40 miles per hour and not 
greater than 50 miles per hour) under high-altitude conditions is 
greater than the largest acceleration time under low-altitude conditions 
for that manufacturer for that year. The procedure to be followed in 
making this determination is:
    (A) The manufacturer shall list the vehicle configuration and 
acceleration time under low-altitude conditions of that vehicle

configuration(s) required under this subparagraph. As a condition to the 
exemption, any suspension, revocation, voiding, or withdrawal of the 
Certificate as it applies to a non-exempt configuration for any reason 
will result in a suspension of the Certificate as it applies to the 
corresponding exempted configuration(s) of that model type, unless there 
is at least one other corresponding non-exempt configuration of the same 
model type still covered by the Certificate. The suspension of the 
Certificate as it applies to the exempted configuration(s) will be

Sec. 86.098-2  Definitions.

    The definitions of Sec. 86.096-2 continue to apply to 1996 and later 
model year vehicles. The definitions listed in this section apply 
beginning with the 1998 model year.
    Dispensed fuel temperature means the temperature (deg.F or deg.C may 
be used) of the fuel being dispensed into the tank of the test vehicle 
during a refueling test.
    Evaporative/refueling emission control system means a unique 
combination within an evaporative/refueling family of canister 
adsorptive material, purge system configuration, purge strategy, and

for an individual test vehicle. Such a demonstration must include a 
description of the source(s) of emissions and an estimated decay rate. 
The demonstrated level of nonfuel background emissions may be subtracted 
from emission test results from certification vehicles if approved in 
advance by the Administrator.
    (B) For vehicles with a Gross Vehicle Weight Rating of greater than 
26,000 lbs., the standards set forth in paragraph (b)(3)(ii) of this 
section refer to the manufacturer's engineering design evaluation using 
good engineering practice (a statement of which is required in

    (C) Small volume manufacturers, as defined in Sec. 86.092-14(b) (1) 
and (2), are exempt from the phase-in described in paragraph 
(b)(3)(v)(A) of this section. For small volume manufacturers, the 
standards of Sec. 86.094-11(b)(3), and the associated test procedures, 
apply for the 1998 model year. Beginning in the 1999 model year, 100 
percent compliance with the standards of this section is required. This 
exemption does not apply to small volume engine families as defined in

Sec. 86.098-15  NOX and particulate averaging, trading, and banking for heavy-duty engines.

    Section 86.098-15 includes text that specifies requirements that 
differ from Sec. 86.094-15. Where a paragraph in Sec. 86.094-15 is 
identical and applicable to Sec. 86.098-15, this may be indicated by 
specifying the corresponding paragraph and the statement ``[Reserved]. 
For guidance see Sec. 86.094-15.''
    (a) through (b) [Reserved]. For guidance see Sec. 86.094-15.
    (c)(1) For each participating engine family, NOX and 
particulate emission credits (positive or negative) are to be calculated 
according to one of the following equations and rounded, in accordance 
with ASTM E29-93a, to the nearest one-tenth of a Megagram (MG). 
Consistent units are to be used throughout the equation.
    (i) For determining credit need for all engine families and credit 
availability for engine families generating credits for averaging 
programs only:

Emission credits = (Std-FEL)  x  (CF)  x  (UL)  x  (Production)  x  
    (10-6)

    (ii) For determining credit availability for engine families 
generating credits for trading or banking programs:

Emission credits = (Std-FEL)  x  (CF)  x  (UL)  x  (Production)  x  
    (10-6)  x  (Discount)

    (iii) For purposes of the equations in paragraphs (c)(1)(i) and (ii) 
of this section:

Std = the current and applicable heavy-duty engine NOX or 
          particulate emission standard in grams per brake horsepower 
          hour or grams per Megajoule.
FEL = the NOX or particulate family emission limit for the 
          engine family in grams per brake horsepower hour or grams per 
          Megajoule.
CF = a transient cycle conversion factor in BHP-hr/mi or MJ/mi, as given 
          in paragraph (c)(2) of this section.
UL = the useful life, or alternative life as described in paragraph (f) 
          of Sec. 86.094-21, for the given engine family in miles.
Production = the number of engines produced for U.S. sales within the 
          given engine family during the model year. Quarterly 
          production projections are used for initial certification. 
          Actual production is used for end-of-year compliance 
          determination.
Discount = a one-time discount applied to all credits to be banked or 
          traded within the model year generated. The discount applied 
          here is 0.8. Banked credits traded in a subsequent model year 
          will not be subject to an additional discount. Banked credits 
          used in a subsequent model year's averaging program will not 
          have the discount restored.

    (2)(i) The transient cycle conversion factor is the total 
(integrated) cycle brake horsepower-hour or Megajoules, divided by the 
equivalent mileage of the applicable transient cycle. For Otto-cycle 
heavy-duty engines, the equivalent mileage is 6.3 miles. For diesel 
heavy-duty engines, the equivalent mileage is 6.5 miles.

[[Page 342]]

    (ii) When more than one configuration is chosen by EPA to be tested 
in the certification of an engine family (as described in Sec. 86.085-
24), the conversion factor used is to be based upon a production 
weighted average value of the configurations in an engine family to 
calculate the conversion factor.
    (d) through (i) [Reserved]. For guidance see Sec. 86.094-15.
    (j) Optional program for early banking. Provisions set forth in 
paragraphs (a) through (i) of this section apply except as specifically 
stated otherwise in paragraph (j) of this section.
    (1) To be eligible for the optional program described in paragraph 
(j) of this section, the following must apply:
    (i) Credits are generated from diesel cycle heavy-duty engines.
    (ii) During certification, the manufacturer shall declare its intent 
to include specific engine families in the program described in this 
paragraph (j). Separate declarations are required for each program and 
no engine families may be included in both programs in the same model 
year.
    (2) Credit generation and use. (i) Credits shall only be generated 
by 1998 and later model year engine families.
    (ii) Credits may only be used for 2004 and later model year heavy-
duty diesel engines. When used with 2004 and later model year engines, 
NOX credits may be used to meet the NOX plus NMHC 
standard, except as otherwise provided in Sec. 86.004-11(a)(1)(i)(D).
    (iii) If a manufacturer chooses to use credits generated under 
paragraph (j) of this section prior to model year 2004, the averaging, 
trading, and banking of such credits shall be governed by the program 
provided in paragraphs (a) through (i) of this section and shall be 
subject to all discounting, credit life limits and all other provisions 
contained therein. In the case where the manufacturer can demonstrate 
that the credits were discounted under the program provided in paragraph 
(j) of this section, that discount may be accounted for in the 
calculation of credits described in paragraph (c) of this section.
    (3) Program flexibilities. (i) NOX and PM credits that 
are banked until model year 2004 under this paragraph (j) may be used in 
2004 or any model year thereafter without being forfeited due to credit 
age. This supersedes the requirement in paragraph (f)(2)(i) of this 
section.
    (ii) There are no regional category restraints for averaging, 
trading, and banking of credits generated under the program described in 
paragraph (j) of this section. This supersedes the regional category 
provisions described in the opening text of paragraphs (d) and (e) of 
this section.
    (iii) Credit discounting. (A) For NOX and PM credits 
generated under this paragraph (j) from engine families with 
NOX certification levels greater than 3.5 grams per brake 
horsepower-hour for oxides of nitrogen, a Discount value of 0.9 shall be 
used in place of 0.8 in the credit availability equation in paragraph 
(c)(1) of this section.
    (B) For NOX and PM credits generated under this paragraph 
(j) from engine families with NOx certification levels less than or 
equal to 3.5 grams per brake horsepower-hour for oxides of nitrogen, a 
Discount value of 1.0 shall be used in place of 0.8 in the credit 
availability equation in paragraph (c)(1) of this section.
    (iv) Credit apportionment. At the manufacturers option, credits 
generated under the provisions described in this section may be sold to 
or otherwise provided to another party for use in programs other than 
the averaging, trading and banking program described in this section.
    (A) The manufacturer shall pre-identify two emission levels per 
engine family for the purposes of credit apportionment. One emission 
level shall be the FEL and the other shall be the level of the standard 
that the engine family is required to certify to under Sec. 86.098-11. 
For each engine family, the manufacturer may report engine sales in two 
categories, ``ABT-only credits'' and ``nonmanufacturer-owned credits''.
    (1) For engine sales reported as ``ABT-only credits'', the credits 
generated must be used solely in the ABT program described in this 
section.
    (2) The engine manufacturer may declare a portion of engine sales 
``nonmanufacturer-owned credits'' and this portion of the credits 
generated between the standard and the FEL, based on the calculation in 
paragraph (c)(1)

[[Page 343]]

of this section, would belong to another party. For ABT, the 
manufacturer may not generate any credits for the engine sales reported 
as ``nonmanufacturer-owned credits''. Engines reported as 
``nonmanufacturer-owned credits'' shall comply with the FEL and the 
requirements of the ABT program in all other respects.
    (B) Only manufacturer-owned credits reported as ``ABT-only credits'' 
shall be used in the averaging, trading, and banking provisions 
described in this section.
    (C) Credits shall not be double-counted. Credits used in the ABT 
program may not be provided to an engine purchaser for use in another 
program.
    (D) Manufacturers shall determine and state the number of engines 
sold as ``ABT-only credits'' and ``nonmanufacturer-owned credits'' in 
the end-of-model year reports required under Sec. 86.098-23.

using fuels/fuel systems inherently low in refueling emissions are not 
required to conduct testing to demonstrate compliance with the refueling 
emission standards set forth in Sec. 86.098-8: Provided, that--
    (i) This provision is only available for petroleum diesel fuel. It 
is only available if the Reid Vapor Pressure of in-use diesel fuel is 
equal to or less than 1 psi (7 kPa) and for diesel vehicles whose fuel 
tank temperatures do not exceed 130  deg.F (54  deg.C); and
    (ii) To certify using this provision the manufacturer must attest to 
the following evaluation: ``Due to the low

[[Page 353]]

vapor pressure of diesel fuel and the vehicle tank temperatures, 
hydrocarbon vapor concentrations are low and the vehicle meets the 0.20 
grams/gallon refueling emission standard without a control system.''
    (2) The certification required in paragraph (g)(1)(ii) of this 
section must be provided in writing and must apply for the full useful 
life of the vehicle.
    (3) EPA reserves the authority to require testing to enforce 
compliance and to prevent noncompliance with the refueling emission

    (h) Fixed liquid level gauge waiver. Liquefied petroleum gas-fueled 
vehicles which contain fixed liquid level gauges or other gauges or 
valves which can be opened to release fuel or fuel vapor during 
refueling, and which are being tested for refueling emissions, are not 
required to be tested with such gauges or valves open, as outlined in 
Sec. 86.157-98(d)(2), provided the manufacturer can demonstrate, to the 
satisfaction of the Administrator, that such gauges or valves would not 
be opened during refueling in-use due to inaccessibility or other design 
features that would prevent or make it very unlikely that such gauges or 
valves could be opened.

the provisions of the National Low Emission Vehicle Program contained in 
subpart R of this part. Subpart R of this part is applicable only to 
those manufacturers that opt into the National Low Emission Vehicle 
Program, under the provisions of subpart R of this part, and that have 
not exercised a valid opt-out from the National Low Emission Vehicle 
Program, which opt-out has gone into effect under the provisions of 
Sec. 86.1707. All provisions of this subpart are applicable to vehicles 
certified pursuant to subpart R of this part, except as specifically 
noted in subpart R of this part.

Sec. 86.106-90  Equipment required; overview.

    (a) This subpart contains procedures for exhaust emissions tests on 
petroleum-fueled, and methanol-fueled light-duty vehicles and light-duty 
trucks, and for evaporative emission tests on gasoline-fueled and 
methanol-fueled light-duty vehicles and light-duty trucks. Certain items 
of equipment are not necessary for a particular test, e.g., evaporative 
enclosure when testing diesel vehicles. Alternate sampling systems may 
be used if shown to yield equivalent results, and if approved in advance 
by the Administrator. Equipment required and specifications are as 
follows:
    (1) Evaporative emission tests, gasoline-fueled and methanol-fueled 
vehicles. The evaporative emission test is closely related to and 
connected with the exhaust emission test. All vehicles tested for 
evaporative emissions must be tested for exhaust emissions. Further, 
unless the evaporative emission test is waived by the Administrator 
under Sec. 86.090-26, all gasoline-fueled and methanol-fueled vehicles 
must undergo both tests. (Diesel vehicles are excluded from the 
evaporative emission standard.) Section 86.107 specifies the necessary 
equipment.
    (2) Exhaust emission tests. All vehicles subject to this subpart are 
tested for exhaust emissions. The exhaust from Otto-cycle vehicles is 
tested for gaseous emissions only, using the CVS concept (Sec. 86.109). 
The exhaust from diesel vehicles is tested for both gaseous and 
particulate emissions. Petroleum-fueled diesel vehicle testing also 
utilizes the CVS concept of measuring emissions, but requires that a 
PDP-CVS or CFV with heat exchanger be used, and that it be connected to 
a dilution tunnel in order to sample particulate emissions 
(Sec. 86.110). The exhaust from methanol-fueled diesel vehicles is 
tested for both gaseous and particulate emissions using the CVS concept 
(either PDP CVS or CFV as specified in Sec. 86.109 or PDP-CVS or CFV 
with heat exchanger as specified in Sec. 86.110 may be used) and is 
connected to a dilution tunnel to sample particulate emissions 
(Sec. 86.110) (This equipment may be used with methanol-fueled Otto-
cycle vehicles, however, particulates are not measured). All gasoline-
fueled and methanol-fueled vehicles are either tested for evaporative 
emissions or undergo a diurnal heat build. Petroleum-fueled diesel 
vehicles are excluded from this requirement. Equipment necessary and 
specifications appear in Secs. 86.108 through 86.114.

Sec. 86.106-94  Equipment required; overview.

    (a) This subpart contains procedures for exhaust emissions tests on 
petroleum-fueled, natural gas-fueled, liquefied petroleum gas-fueled and 
methanol-fueled light-duty vehicles and light-duty trucks, and for 
evaporative emission tests on gasoline-fueled, natural gas-fueled, 
liquefied petroleum gas-fueled and methanol-fueled light-duty vehicles 
and light-duty trucks. Certain items of equipment are not necessary for 
a particular test, e.g., evaporative enclosure when testing petroleum-
fueled diesel vehicles. Alternate sampling systems may be used if shown 
to yield equivalent results and if approved in advance by the 
Administrator. Equipment required and specifications are as follows:
    (1) Evaporative emission tests. The evaporative emission test is 
closely related to and connected with the exhaust emission test. All 
vehicles tested for evaporative emissions must be tested for exhaust 
emissions. Further, unless the evaporative emission test is waived by 
the Administrator under Sec. 86.090-26, all vehicles must undergo both 
tests. (Petroleum-fueled diesel vehicles are excluded from the 
evaporative emission standard.) Section 86.107 specifies the necessary 
equipment.
    (2) Exhaust emission tests. All vehicles subject to this subpart are 
subject to testing for both gaseous and particulate exhaust emissions 
using the CVS concept (Sec. 86.109), except where exemptions or waivers 
are expressly provided in subpart A of these regulations. Vehicles 
subject to the ``Tier 0'' (i.e., phase-out) standards described under 
subpart A are exempted from testing for methane emissions (except 
natural gas-fueled vehicles). Otto-cycle vehicles subject to the ``Tier 
0'' standards are waived from testing for particulates. For vehicles 
waived from the requirement for measuring particulate emissions, use of 
a dilution tunnel is not required (Sec. 86.109). The CVS must be 
connected to the dilution tunnel if particulate emission sampling is 
required (Sec. 86.110). Petroleum- and methanol-fueled diesel-cycle 
vehicle testing requires that a PDP-CVS or CFV with heat exchanger be 
used. (This equipment may be used with methanol-fueled Otto-cycle 
vehicles; however, particulates need not be measured for vehicles that 
are waived from the requirement). All gasoline-fueled, methanol-fueled, 
natural gas-fueled and liquified petroleum gas-fueled vehicles are 
either tested for evaporative emissions or undergo a diurnal heat build. 
Petroleum-fueled diesel-cycle vehicles are excluded from this 
requirement. Equipment necessary and specifications appear in 
Secs. 86.108 through 86.114.
    (3) Fuel, analytical gas, and driving schedule specifications. Fuel 
specifications for exhaust and evaporative emissions testing and for 
mileage accumulation are specified in Sec. 86.113. Analytical gases are

methods may be used if shown to yield equivalent or superior results, 
and if approved in advance by the Administrator. Equipment required and 
specifications are as follows:
    (1) Evaporative emission tests. The evaporative emission test is 
closely related to and connected with the exhaust emission test. All 
vehicles tested for evaporative emissions must undergo testing according 
to the test sequences described in Sec. 86.130-96; however, the 
Administrator may omit measurement of exhaust emissions to test for 
evaporative emissions. The Administrator may truncate a test after any 
valid emission measurement without affecting the validity of the test. 
Further, unless the evaporative emission test is waived by the 
Administrator under Sec. 86.090-26, all vehicles must undergo both 
tests. (Petroleum-fueled diesel vehicles are excluded from the 
evaporative emission standard.) Section 86.107 specifies the necessary 
equipment.
    (2) Exhaust emission tests. All vehicles subject to this subpart are 
subject to testing for both gaseous and particulate exhaust emissions 
using the CVS concept (see Sec. 86.109), except where exemptions or 
waivers are expressly provided in subpart A of this part. Vehicles 
subject to the ``Tier 0'' (i.e., phase-out) standards described under 
subpart A of this part are exempted from testing for methane emissions. 
Otto-cycle vehicles subject to the ``Tier 0'' standards are waived from 
testing for particulates. For vehicles waived from the requirement for 
measuring particulate emissions, use of a dilution tunnel is not 
required (see Sec. 86.109). The CVS must be connected to the dilution 
tunnel if particulate emission sampling is required (see Sec. 86.110). 
Petroleum- and methanol-fueled diesel-cycle vehicle testing requires 
that a PDP-CVS or CFV-CVS with heat exchanger be used. (This equipment 
may be used with methanol-fueled Otto-cycle vehicles; however, 
particulates need not be measured for vehicles that are waived from the 
requirement). All vehicles equipped with evaporative canisters are 
preconditioned by loading the canisters with hydrocarbon vapors. 
Petroleum-fueled diesel vehicles are excluded from this requirement.

specifications for exhaust and evaporative emissions testing and for 
mileage accumulation are specified in Sec. 86.113. Analytical gases are

Sec. 86.107-90  Sampling and analytical system; evaporative emissions.

    (a) Component description (evaporative emissions sampling system). 
The following components will be used in evaporative emissions sampling 
systems for testing under this subpart.
    (1) Evaporative emission measurement enclosure. The enclosure shall 
be readily sealable, rectangular in shape, with space for personnel 
access to all sides of the vehicle. When sealed, the enclosure shall be 
gas tight in accordance with Sec. 86.117. Interior surfaces must be 
impermeable and non-reactive to hydrocarbons and to methanol (if the 
enclosure is used for methanol-fueled vehicles). One surface should be 
of flexible, impermeable and non-reactive material to allow for minor 
volume changes, resulting from temperature changes. Wall design should 
promote maximum dissipation of heat, and if artificial cooling is used, 
interior surface temperatures shall not be less than 68  deg.F (20 
deg.C).
    (2) Evaporative emission hydrocarbon and methanol analyzers. (i) For 
gasoline- and methanol-fueled vehicles a hydrocarbon analyzer utilizing 
the hydrogen flame ionization principle (FID) shall be used to monitor 
the atmosphere within the enclosure (a heated FID 
(HFID)(235 deg.15  deg.F (1138  deg.C)) is 
recommended for methanol-fueled vehicles). Instrument bypass flow may be 
returned to the enclosure. The FID shall have a response time to 90 
percent of final reading of less than 1.5 seconds, and be capable of 
meeting performance requirements expressed as a function of Cstd: where 
Cstd is the specific enclosure hydrocarbon level, in

[[Page 366]]

ppm, corresponding to the evaporative emission standard:
    (A) Stability of the analyzer shall be better than 0.01 Cstd ppm at 
zero and span over a 15-minute period on all ranges used.
    (B) Repeatability of the analyzer, expressed as one standard 
deviation, shall be better than 0.005 Cstd ppm on all ranges used.
    (ii) For methanol-fueled vehicles, a methanol sampling and analyzing 
system is required in addition to the FID analyzer. The methanol 
sampling equipment shall consist of impingers for collecting the 
methanol sample and appropriate equipment for drawing the sample through 
the impingers. The analytical equipment shall consist of a gas 
chromatograph equipped with a flame ionization detector. (NOTE: For 1990 
through 1994 model year methanol-fueled vehicles, a HFID calibrated on 
methanol may be used in place of the HFID, calibrated on propane plus 
the methanol impingers and associated analytical equipment).
    (iii) The methanol sampling system shall be designed such that, if a 
test vehicle emitted the maximum allowable level of methanol (based on 
all applicable standards) during any phase of the test, the measured 
concentration in the primary impinger would exceed either 25 mg/l or a 
concentration equal to 25 times the limit of detection for the GC 
analyzer, and such that the primary impinger collects at least 90 
percent of the analyte in the samples. The remaining analyte shall be 
collected by the secondary impinger. This requirement does not apply to 
dilution air samples, since they do not require secondary impingers, or 
to samples in which the concentrations approach the limit of detection. 
The provisions of this paragraph apply to the design of sampling 
systems, not to individual tests.
    (3) Evaporative emission hydrocarbon and methanol data recording 
system. (i) The electrical output of the FID used for measuring 
hydrocarbons (or hydrocarbons plus methanol as appropriate) shall be 
recorded at least at the initiation and termination of each diurnal or 
hot soak. The recording may be by means of a strip chart potentiometric 
recorder, by use of an on-line computer system or other suitable means. 
In any case, the recording system must have operational characteristics 
(signal to noise ratio, speed of response, etc.) equivalent to or better 
than those of the signal source being recorded, and must provide a 
permanent record of results. The record shall show a positive indication 
of the initiation and completion of each diurnal or hot soak along with 
the time elapsed between initiation and completion of each soak.
    (ii) For the methanol sample, permanent records shall be made of the 
following: the volumes of deionized water introduced into each impinger, 
the rate and time of sample collection, the volumes of each sample 
introduced into the gas chromatograph, the flow rate of carrier gas 
through the column, the column temperature, and the chromatogram of the 
analyzed sample.
    (4) Tank fuel heating system. The tank fuel heating system shall 
consist of a heat source and a temperature controller. A typical heat 
source is a 2000 W heating pad. Other sources may be used as required by 
circumstances. The temperature controller may be manual, such as a 
variable voltage transformer, or may be automated. The heating system 
must not cause hot spots on the tank wetted surface which could cause 
local overheating of the fuel. Heat must not be applied to the vapor in 
the tank above the liquid fuel. The temperature controller must be 
capable of controlling the fuel tank temperature during the diurnal soak 
to within 3  deg.F (1.7  deg.C) of the following 
equation:

    F = To + (0.4)t.


or For SI units:

    C = To + (2/9)t.

Where:
F = Temperature in  deg.F.
C = Temperature in  deg.C.
t = Time since start of test in minutes.
To = initial temperature in  deg.F (or in  deg.C for SI 
          units).

    (5) Temperature recording system. Strip chart recorder(s) or 
automatic data processor shall be used to record enclosure ambient and 
vehicle fuel tank temperature during the evaporative emissions test. The 
temperature recorder or data processor shall record each temperature at 
least once every minute. The recording system shall be

[[Page 367]]

capable of resolving time to 15s and capable of resolving 
temperature to 0.75  deg.F (0.42  deg.C). The 
temperature recording system (recorder and sensor) shall have an 
accuracy of 3  deg.F (1.7  deg.C). The recorder 
(data processor) shall have a time accuracy of 15s and a 
precision of 15s. Two ambient temperature sensors, connected 
to provide one average output, shall be located in the enclosure. These 
sensors shall be located at the approximate vertical centerline of each 
side wall extending 4 inches (nominally) into the enclosure at a height 
of 30.5 ft (0.90.2m). The vehicle fuel tank 
temperature sensor shall be located in the fuel tank so as to measure 
the temperature of the prescribed test fuel at the approximate mid-
volume of the fuel. Manufacturers shall arrange that vehicles furnished 
for testing at Federal certification facilities be equipped with iron-
constantan Type J thermocouples for measurement of fuel tank 
temperature.
    (6) Purge blower. One or more portable or fixed blowers shall be 
used to purge the enclosure. The blowers shall have sufficient flow 
capacity to reduce the enclosure hydrocarbon and/or methanol 
concentration from the test level to the ambient level between tests. 
Actual flow capacity will depend upon the time available between tests.
    (7) Mixing blower. One or more small blowers or fans with a total 
capacity of 200 to 1000 cfm shall be used to mix the contents of the 
enclosure during evaporative emission testing. No portion of the air 
stream shall be directed toward the vehicle. Maintenance of uniform 
concentrations throughout the enclosure is important to the accuracy of 
the test.

Sec. 86.107-96  Sampling and analytical systems; evaporative emissions.

    (a) Testing enclosures--(1) Diurnal emission test. The enclosure 
shall be readily sealable, rectangular in shape, with space for 
personnel access to all sides of the vehicle. When sealed, the enclosure 
shall be gas tight in accordance with Sec. 86.117-96. Interior surfaces 
must be impermeable and nonreactive to hydrocarbons (and to methanol, if 
the enclosure is used for methanol-fueled vehicles). The temperature 
conditioning system shall be capable of controlling the internal 
enclosure air temperature to follow the prescribed temperature versus 
time cycle as specified in Sec. 86.133-96 and appendix II of this part, 
within an instantaneous tolerance of 3.0  deg.F of the 
nominal temperature versus time profile throughout the test, and an 
average tolerance of 2.0  deg.F over the duration of the test (where the 
average is calculated using the absolute value of each measured 
deviation). The control system shall be tuned to provide a smooth 
temperature pattern that has a minimum of overshoot, hunting, and 
instability about the desired long-term ambient temperature profile. 
Interior surface temperatures shall not be less than 40  deg.F at any 
time during the diurnal emission test. To accommodate the volume changes 
due to enclosure temperature changes, either a variable-volume or fixed-
volume enclosure may be used for diurnal emission testing:
    (i) Variable-volume enclosure. The variable-volume enclosure expands 
and contracts in response to the temperature change of the air mass in 
the enclosure. Two potential means of accommodating the internal volume 
changes are movable panel(s), or a bellows design, in which impermeable 
bag(s) inside the enclosure expand and contract in response to internal 
pressure changes by exchanging air from outside the enclosure. Any 
design for volume accommodation must maintain the integrity of the 
enclosure as specified in Sec. 86.117-96 over the specified temperature 
range. Any method of volume accommodation shall limit the differential 
between the enclosure internal pressure and the barometric pressure to a 
maximum value of 2.0 inches of water. The enclosure shall be 
capable of latching to a fixed volume. A variable-volume enclosure must 
be capable of accommodating a 7 percent change from its 
``nominal volume'' (see Sec. 86.117-96(b)), accounting for temperature 
and barometric pressure variation during testing.
    (ii) Fixed-volume enclosure. The fixed-volume enclosure shall be 
constructed with rigid panels that maintain a fixed

[[Page 368]]

enclosure volume, and meet the following requirements.
    (A) The enclosure shall be equipped with a mechanism to maintain a 
fixed internal air volume. This may be accomplished either by 
withdrawing air at a constant rate and providing makeup air as needed, 
or by reversing the flow of air into and out of the enclosure in 
response to rising or falling temperatures. If inlet air is added 
continuously throughout the test, it should be filtered with activated 
carbon to provide a relatively low and constant hydrocarbon level. Any 
method of volume accommodation shall maintain the differential between 
the enclosure internal pressure and the barometric pressure to a maximum 
value of 2.0 inches of water.
    (B) The equipment shall be capable of measuring the mass of 
hydrocarbon and methanol (if the enclosure is used for methanol-fueled 
vehicles) in the inlet and outlet flow streams with a resolution of 0.01 
gram per hour. A bag sampling system may be used to collect a 
proportional sample of the air withdrawn from and admitted to the 
enclosure. Alternatively, the inlet and outlet flow streams may be 
continuously analyzed using an on-line FID analyzer and integrated with 
the flow measurements to provide a continuous record of the mass 
hydrocarbon and methanol removal.
    (2) Running loss test. The enclosure shall be readily sealable, 
rectangular in shape, with space for personnel access to all sides of 
the vehicle. When sealed, the enclosure shall be gas tight in accordance 
with Sec. 86.117-96. The enclosure may be equipped with a personnel 
door, provided that the enclosure can still meet the requirements of 
Sec. 86.117-96 with the door installed. Interior surfaces must be 
impermeable and nonreactive to hydrocarbons and to methanol (if the 
enclosure is used for methanol-fueled vehicles). Interior surface 
temperatures shall not be less than 40  deg.F. If a running loss 
enclosure meets all the requirements of paragraph (a)(1) of this 
section, it may be used as a diurnal evaporative emission enclosure. The 
enclosure must contain a dynamometer that meets the requirements of 
Sec. 86.108. Provisions shall be made to remove exhaust gases from the 
enclosure. During the running loss test, ambient temperatures must be 
maintained at 955  deg.F (952  deg.F on 
average). An air or oxygen cylinder with an attached self-contained 
breathing apparatus may be provided for the vehicle operator. The air 
required for vehicle operation shall be provided by one of the following 
methods:
    (i) The running loss enclosure may be equipped to supply air to the 
vehicle, at a temperature of 955  deg.F, from sources 
outside of the running loss enclosure directly into the operating 
engine's air intake system. Supplemental air requirements (e.g., for an 
air pump) shall be supplied by drawing air from the engine intake 
source.
    (ii) If it is shown to yield equivalent or superior results, the 
running loss enclosure may be designed with an air makeup system that 
brings outside air into the enclosure to accommodate the aspiration 
needs of the engine and any auxiliary devices. The makeup air shall be 
monitored to establish the background hydrocarbon levels (or hydrocarbon 
and methanol, levels, if applicable) of the makeup air. A filter may be 
used to provide dry air with a stable concentration of background 
hydrocarbon. The makeup-air vent shall be readily sealable for 
calibration of the enclosure and other purposes. For calculation of 
running loss emissions, it may be assumed that the hydrocarbon and 
methanol concentration in the air consumed by the vehicle is the same as 
that of the rest of the air in the enclosure.
    (3) Hot soak test. The hot soak test may be conducted by holding the 
vehicle in an enclosure that meets the requirements for either diurnal 
emission or running loss tests. The enclosure shall be configured to 
provide an internal enclosure ambient temperature of 9510 
deg.F for the first 5 minutes, and 955  deg.F 
(952  deg.F on average) for the remainder of the hot soak 
test.
    (i) If the hot soak test is conducted in the same enclosure as the 
immediately preceding running loss test, interior surface temperatures 
shall not be below 70  deg.F for the last 55 minutes of the hot soak 
test.
    (ii) If the hot soak test is not conducted in the same enclosure as 
the immediately preceding running loss test,

interior surface temperatures shall not be below 70  deg.F for the 
duration of the hot soak test.
    (b) Evaporative emission hydrocarbon and methanol analyzers. (1) For 
gasoline fueled, natural gas-fueled, liquefied petroleum gas-fueled and 
methanol-fueled vehicles a hydrocarbon analyzer utilizing the hydrogen 
flame ionization principle (FID) shall be used to monitor the atmosphere 
within the enclosure (a heated FID (HFID)(235 deg.15  deg.F 
(1138  deg.C)) is recommended for methanol-fueled vehicles). 
For natural gas-fueled vehicles, the FID may be calibrated using 
methane, or if calibrated using propane the FID response to methane 
shall be determined and applied to the FID hydrocarbon reading. Provided 
evaporative emission results are not effected, a probe may be used to 
detect or verify hydrocarbon sources during a running loss test. 
Instrument bypass flow may be returned to the enclosure. The FID shall 
have a response time to 90 percent of final reading of less than 1.5 
seconds.
    (2) For methanol-fueled vehicles, a methanol sampling and analyzing 
system is required in addition to the FID analyzer. The methanol 
sampling equipment shall consist of impingers for collecting the 
methanol sample and appropriate equipment for drawing the sample through 
the impingers. The analytical equipment shall consist of a gas 
chromatograph equipped with a flame ionization detector.
    (3) The methanol sampling system shall be designed such that, if a 
test vehicle emitted the maximum allowable level of methanol (based on 
all applicable standards) during any phase of the test, the measured 
concentration in the primary impinger would exceed either 25 mg/l or a 
concentration equal to 25 times the limit of detection for the GC 
analyzer, and such that the primary impinger collects at least 90 
percent of the analyte in the samples. The remaining analyte shall be 
collected by the secondary impinger. This requirement does not apply to 
dilution air samples, since they do not require secondary impingers, or 
to samples in which the concentrations approach the limit of detection. 
The provisions of this paragraph apply to the design of sampling 
systems, not to individual tests.
    (c) Evaporative emission hydrocarbon and methanol data recording 
system. (1) The electrical output of the FID used for measuring 
hydrocarbons (or hydrocarbons plus methanol, as appropriate) shall be 
recorded at least at the initiation and termination of each running loss 
and hot soak test, and at least at the initiation and termination of the 
enclosure sampling period(s) for the diurnal emission test, as described 
in Sec. 86.133. The recording may be taken by means of a strip chart 
potentiometric recorder, by use of an on-line computer system or other 
suitable means. In any case, the recording system must have operational 
characteristics (signal-to-noise ratio, speed of response, etc.) 
equivalent to or better than those of the signal source being recorded, 
and must provide a permanent record of results. The record shall show a 
positive indication of the initiation and completion of each hot soak, 
running loss, or diurnal emission test (including initiation and 
completion of sampling period(s)), along with the time elapsed during 
each soak.
    (2) For the methanol sample, permanent records shall be made of the 
following: the volumes of deionized water introduced into each impinger, 
the rate and time of sample collection, the volumes of each sample 
introduced into the gas chromatograph, the flow rate of carrier gas 
through the column, the column temperature, and the chromatogram of the 
analyzed sample.
    (d) Fuel temperature control system. Fuel temperatures of the test 
vehicle shall be controlled, as specified in Sec. 86.134(g)(1)(xv), with 
the following combination of fans. The control system shall be tuned and 
operated to provide a smooth and continuous fuel temperature profile 
that is representative of the on-road temperature profile. The running 
loss test configuration should be designed to avoid heating or cooling 
the fuel tank's vapor space in a way that would cause vapor temperature 
behavior to be unrepresentative of the vehicle's on-road profile.
    (1) A vehicle cooling fan shall discharge air to the front of the 
vehicle.

[[Page 370]]

The fan shall be a road-speed modulated fan that is controlled to a 
discharge velocity that follows the dynamometer roll speed, at least up 
to speeds of 30 mph, throughout the driving cycle. If a warning light or 
gauge indicates that the vehicle's engine coolant has overheated, 
subsequent test runs on the vehicle must include a vehicle cooling fan 
that follows the dynamometer roll speed at all speeds throughout the 
test cycle. The fan may direct airflow to both the vehicle radiator air 
inlet(s) and the vehicle underbody.
    (2) An additional fan may be used to discharge airflow from the 
front of the vehicle directly to the vehicle underbody to control fuel 
temperatures. Such a fan shall provide a total discharge airflow not to 
exceed 8,000 cfm.
    (3) Additional fans may be used to route heating or cooling air 
directly at the bottom of the vehicle's fuel tank. The air supplied to 
the tank shall be between 85 deg. and 160  deg.F, with a total discharge 
airflow not to exceed 4,000 cfm. For exceptional circumstances, 
manufacturers may direct up to 6,000 cfm at the bottom of the fuel tank 
with the advance approval of the Administrator.
    (4) Direct fuel heating may be needed for canister preconditioning, 
as specified in Sec. 86.132(j)(2). Also, under exceptional circumstances 
in which airflow alone is insufficient to control fuel temperatures 
during the running loss test, direct fuel tank heating may be used (see 
Sec. 86.134-96(g)(1)(xv)). The heating system must not cause hot spots 
on the tank wetted surface that could cause local overheating of the 
fuel. Heat must not be applied directly to the tank's vapor space, nor 
to the liquid-vapor interface.
    (e) Temperature recording system. A strip chart potentiometric 
recorder, an on-line computer system, or other suitable means shall be 
used to record enclosure ambient temperature during all evaporative 
emission test segments, as well as vehicle fuel tank temperature during 
the running loss test. The recording system shall record each 
temperature at least once every minute. The recording system shall be 
capable of resolving time to 15 s and capable of resolving 
temperature to 0.75  deg.F (0.42  deg.C). The 
temperature recording system (recorder and sensor) shall have an 
accuracy of 3  deg.F (1.7  deg.C). The recorder 
(data processor) shall have a time accuracy of 15 s and a 
precision of 15 s. Enclosures shall be equipped with two 
ambient temperature sensors, connected to provide one average output, 
located 3 feet above the floor at the approximate mid-length of each 
side wall of the enclosure and within 3 to 12 inches of each side wall. 
For diurnal emission testing, an additional temperature sensor shall be 
located underneath the vehicle to provide a temperature measurement 
representative of the air temperature under the fuel tank. For running 
loss testing, an ambient temperature sensor shall be located at the 
inlet to the fan that provides engine cooling. Manufacturers shall 
arrange that vehicles furnished for testing at federal certification 
facilities be equipped with temperature sensors for measurement of fuel 
tank temperatures. Vehicles shall be equipped with two temperature 
sensors installed to provide an average liquid fuel temperature. The 
temperature sensors shall be placed to measure the temperature at the 
mid-volume of the liquid fuel at a fill level of 40 percent of nominal 
tank capacity. An additional temperature sensor may be placed to measure 
vapor temperatures approximately at the mid-volume of the vapor space, 
though measurement of vapor temperatures is optional during the running 
loss test. In-tank temperature sensors are not required for the 
supplemental two-diurnal test sequence specified in Sec. 86.130-96.
    (f) Pressure recording system. A strip chart potentiometric 
recorder, an on-line computer system, or other suitable means, shall be 
used to record the enclosure gage pressure for any testing in an 
enclosure, as well as the vehicle's fuel tank pressure during the 
running loss test and the outdoor driving procedure specified in 
Sec. 86.129-94(d). Fuel tank pressure measurement and recording 
equipment are optional during the running loss test. The recording 
system shall record each pressure at least once every minute. The 
recording system shall be capable of resolving time to 15 s 
and capable of resolving pressure to 0.1 inches of water. 
The

[[Page 371]]

pressure recording system (recorder and sensor) shall have an accuracy 
of 1.0 inch of water. The recorder (data processor) shall 
have a time accuracy of 15 s and a precision of 
15 s. The pressure transducer shall be installed to measure 
the pressure in the vapor space of the fuel tank.
    (g) Purge blower. One or more portable or fixed blowers shall be 
used to purge the enclosure. The blowers shall have sufficient flow 
capacity to reduce the enclosure hydrocarbon and/or methanol 
concentration from the test level to the ambient level between tests. 
Actual flow capacity will depend upon the time available between tests.
    (h) Mixing blower. Blowers or fans shall be used to mix the 
enclosure contents during evaporative emission testing. The inlets and 
outlets of the air circulation blower(s) shall be configured to provide 
a well dispersed air circulation pattern that produces effective 
internal mixing and avoids significant temperature or hydrocarbon 
stratification. Maintenance of uniform concentrations throughout the 
enclosure is important to the accuracy of testing.
    (1) Diurnal emission test. Blowers or fans shall have a capacity of 
0.80.2 cfm per cubic foot of the nominal enclosure volume 
for mixing in the enclosure. Additional fans may be used to maintain a 
minimum wind speed of 5 mph (8 km/h) under the fuel tank of the test 
vehicle.
    (2) Running loss test. Blowers or fans shall have a total capacity 
of at least 1.0 cfm per cubic foot of the nominal enclosure volume.
    (3) Hot soak test. Blowers or fans must have a capacity of 
0.80.2 cfm per cubic foot of the nominal enclosure volume. 
Circulated air shall not be aimed directly at the vehicle.
    (i) Point-source running loss measurement facility. Some system 
requirements pertain specifically to running loss testing by the point-
source method, in which emissions from potential sources are collected 
and routed to a sampling system. Emissions are sampled with the same 
equipment and techniques as for exhaust emission measurement. The test 
environment must contain a dynamometer that meets the requirements of 
Sec. 86.108. During the running loss test, ambient temperatures must be 
maintained at 955  deg.F (952  deg.F on 
average). An air or oxygen cylinder with an attached self-contained 
breathing apparatus may be provided for the vehicle operator.
    (1) The running loss vapor vent collection system shall be 
configured to collect all running loss emissions from each of the 
discrete point sources that function as vehicle fuel system vapor vents, 
and transport the collected vapor emissions to a CFV- or PDP-based 
dilution and measurement system. The collection system shall consist of 
a collector at each vehicle vapor vent, lengths of heated sample line 
connecting each collector to the inlet of the heated sample pump, and 
lengths of heated sample line connecting the outlet of the heated sample 
pump to the inlet of the running loss fuel vapor sampling system. Up to 
3 feet of unheated line connecting each of the vapor collectors to the 
heated sample lines shall be allowed. Each heated sample pump and its 
associated sample lines shall be maintained at a temperature between 175 
 deg.F and 200  deg.F to prevent condensation of fuel vapor in the 
sample lines. The heated sample pump(s) and its associated flow controls 
shall be configured and operated to draw a flow of ambient air into each 
collector at a flow rate of at least 0.67 cfm. The flow controls on each 
heated sampling system shall include an indicating flow meter that 
provides an alarm output to the data recording system if the flow rate 
drops below 0.67 cfm by more than 5 percent. The collector inlet for 
each discrete vapor vent shall be placed in proximity to the vent as 
necessary to capture any fuel vapor emissions without significantly 
affecting flow or pressure of the normal action of the vent. The 
collector inlets shall be designed to interface with the configuration 
and orientation of each specific vapor vent. For vapor vents that 
terminate in a tube or hose barb, a short length of tubing of an inside 
diameter larger throughout its length than the inside diameter of the 
vent outlet may be used to extend the vent into the mouth of the 
collector. For those vapor vent designs that are not compatible with 
such collector configurations, the vehicle manufacturer

[[Page 372]]

shall supply a collector that is configured to interface with the vapor 
vent design and that terminates in a fitting that is capable of 
capturing all vapor emitted from the vent. The Administrator may test 
for running losses by the point-source method without heating sample 
lines or pumps.
    (2) The running loss fuel vapor sampling system shall be a CFV- or 
PDP-based dilution and measurement system that further dilutes the 
running loss fuel vapors collected by the vapor vent collection 
system(s) with ambient air, collects continuously proportional samples 
of the diluted running loss vapors and dilution air in sample bags, and 
measures the total dilute flow through the sampling system over each 
test interval. In practice, the system shall be configured and operated 
in a manner that is directly analogous to an exhaust emissions constant 
volume sampling system, except that the input flow to the system is the 
flow from the running loss vapor vent collection system(s) instead of 
vehicle exhaust flow. The system shall be configured and operated to 
meet the following requirements:
    (i) The running loss fuel vapor sampling system shall be designed to 
measure the true mass of fuel vapor emissions collected by the running 
loss vapor vent collection system from the specified fuel vapor vents. 
The total volume of the mixture of running loss emissions and dilution 
air shall be measured and a continuously proportioned sample of volume 
shall be collected for analysis. Mass emissions shall be determined from 
the sample concentration and total flow over the test period.
    (ii) The PDP-CVS shall consist of a dilution air filter and mixing 
assembly, heat exchanger, positive-displacement pump, sampling system, 
and associated valves, pressure and temperature sensors. The PDP-CVS 
shall conform to the following requirements:
    (A) The gas mixture temperature, measured at a point immediately 
ahead of the positive-displacement pump, shall be within 10 
deg.F of the designed operating temperature at the start of the test. 
The gas mixture temperature variation from its value at the start of the 
test shall be limited to 10  deg.F during the entire test. 
The temperature measuring system shall have an accuracy and precision of 
2  deg.F.
    (B) The pressure gauges shall have an accuracy and precision of 
1.6 inches of water (0.4 kPa).
    (C) The flow capacity of the CVS shall not exceed 350 cfm.
    (D) Sample collection bags for dilution air and running loss fuel 
vapor samples shall be sufficient size so as not to impede sample flow.
    (iii) The CFV sample system shall consist of a dilution air filter 
and mixing assembly, a sampling venturi, a critical flow venturi, a 
sampling system and assorted valves, and pressure and temperature 
sensors. The CFV sample system shall conform to the following 
requirements:
    (A) The temperature measuring system shall have an accuracy and 
precision of 2  deg.F and a response time of 0.100 seconds 
of 62.5 percent of a temperature change (as measured in hot silicone 
oil).
    (B) The pressure measuring system shall have an accuracy and 
precision of 1.6 inches of water (0.4 kPa).
    (C) The flow capacity of the CVS shall not exceed 350 cfm.
    (D) Sample collection bags for dilution air and running loss fuel 
vapor samples shall be of sufficient size so as not to impede sample 
flow.
    (3) An on-line computer system or strip-chart recorder shall be used 
to record the following additional parameters during the running loss 
test sequence:
    (i) CFV (if used) inlet temperature and pressure.
    (ii) PDP (if used) inlet temperature, pressure, and differential 
pressure.

of the access port(s) and boots shall be to allow fueling of the test 
vehicle from a fuel nozzle and hose located outside of the enclosure, 
with only the spout of the nozzle passing through the automatic sealing 
opening of the boot during fueling. There shall be no loss in the gas 
tightness of the enclosure at the opening of the boot either when the 
nozzle is inserted or when the nozzle is not inserted.
    (b) through (d) [Reserved]. For guidance see Sec. 86.107-96.

sensors shall be placed to measure the temperature at the mid-volume of 
the liquid fuel at a fill level of 40 percent of nominal tank capacity. 
An additional temperature sensor may be placed to measure vapor 
temperatures approximately at the mid-volume of the vapor space, though 
measurement of vapor temperatures is optional during the running loss 
test. In-tank temperature sensors are not required for the supplemental 
two-diurnal test sequence specified in Sec. 86.130-96 or for the 
refueling test specified in Sec. 86.151-98.
    (2) Refueling emission testing only. In addition to the enclosure 
ambient temperature recording system described in paragraph (e)(1) of 
this section, strip chart recorder(s) or automatic data processor shall 
be used to record vehicle soak area ambient temperature and dispensed 
fuel temperature at the nozzle during the test. The temperature 
recorder(s) or data processor shall record each temperature at least 
once every 20 seconds (the soak area ambient temperature recorder may be 
a continuous recording system). The recording system shall be capable of 
resolving time to 15s and be capable of resolving 
temperature to 0.75  deg.F (0.42  deg.C).
    (f) through (h)(3) [Reserved]. For guidance see Sec. 86.107-96.
    (h)(4) Refueling emission test. Blowers or fans must have a capacity 
of 0.80.2 cfm per cubic foot of the nominal enclosure 
volume. Circulated air shall not be aimed directly at the vehicle.
    (5) Spilled fuel mixing blower; refueling emission test. An 
explosion-proof blower of 100-200 ft3/min (2.8-5.7 
m3/min) capacity is required to enhance mixing of vapors from 
spilled fuel through the enclosure atmosphere during tests. The

[[Page 374]]

discharge from this blower shall be directed toward the region of the 
enclosure floor where fuel spillage during fueling may occur.
    (i) [Reserved]. For guidance see Sec. 86.107-96.
    (j) Refueling equipment. The refueling equipment shall consist of a 
fuel delivery system with temperature control equipment, fuel flow 
safety switch, dispensing pump, hose, nozzle and a meter to measure the 
dispensed fuel volume. The dispensing nozzle shall be a commercial 
model, not equipped with vapor recovery hardware. A fuel recirculation 
system may be utilized to avoid trapping of unheated fuel in the hose. 
The fuel delivery system must be capable of delivering fuel at 
671.5  deg.F (19.40.8  deg.C) and a constant 
flow rate between 4.2 and 9.8 gal/min (15.9 and 37.1 liter/min) with a

Sec. 86.108-00  Dynamometer.

    (a) The dynamometer shall simulate the road load force and inertia 
specified for the vehicle being tested, and shall determine the distance 
traveled during each phase of the test procedure.
    (b) Two types of dynamometer roll configurations are currently 
approved by the Administrator:
    (1) A small twin-roll dynamometer that has a nominal roll diameter 
of 8.65 inches and a nominal roll spacing of 17 inches; and
    (2)(i) An electric dynamometer that has a single roll with a nominal 
diameter of 48 inches (1.20 to 1.25 meters).
    (ii)(A) The dynamometer must be capable of dynamically controlling 
inertia load during the US06 test cycle as a function of a vehicle 
throttle position signal if a manufacturer desires using the following 
test option. Any time the duration of throttle operation greater than or 
equal to 85% of wide open throttle (WOT) is greater than or equal to 
eight seconds, the test inertia load may be adjusted during any of five 
EPA specified acceleration events by an amount of load that will 
eliminate additional throttle operation greater than or equal to 85% of 
WOT.
    (B)(1) The specific US06 schedule accelerations time periods where 
inertia load adjustments may be applied are:
    (i) 49 through 69 seconds;
    (ii) 83 through 97 seconds;
    (iii) 135 through 165 seconds;
    (iv) 315 through 335 seconds; and
    (v) 568 through 583 seconds.
    (2) During these five time intervals when inertia load adjustment is 
occurring, inertia load adjustment is discontinued when throttle 
operation is less than 85% of WOT or at the end of the specified time 
interval.
    (C) Each type of generic application for implementing this concept 
must receive the Administrator's approval before a manufacturer may use 
these inertia adjustments for official US06 schedule certification 
tests.
    (c) Other dynamometer configurations may be used for testing if it 
can be demonstrated that the simulated road load power and inertia are 
equivalent, and if approved in advance by the Administrator.
    (d) An electric dynamometer meeting the requirements of paragraph 
(b)(2) of this section, or a dynamometer approved as equivalent under 
paragraph (c) of this section, must be used for all types of emission 
testing in the following situations.
    (1)(i) Gasoline vehicles which are part of an engine family which is 
designated to meet the phase-in of SFTP compliance required under the 
implementation schedule of table A00-1 of Sec. 86.000-08, or table A00-
3, or table A00-5 of Sec. 86.000-09.
    (ii) Diesel LDVs and LDT1s which are part of an engine family which 
is designated to meet the phase-in of SFTP compliance required under the 
implementation schedule of table A00-1 of Sec. 86.000-08, or table A00-
3, or table A00-5 of Sec. 86.000-09.
    (2) Starting with the 2002 model year, any light-duty vehicle or 
light light-duty truck which uses any regulated fuel.
    (3) Starting with the 2004 model year, any heavy light-duty truck 
which uses any regulated fuel.

recordkeeping requirements and will not become effective until approval 
has been given by the Office of Management and Budget.



Sec. 86.108-79  Dynamometer.

    (a) The dynamometer shall have a power absorption unit for 
simulation of road load power and flywheels or other means of simulating 
the inertia weight as specified in Sec. 86.129.
    (b)(1) The dynamometer shall have a roll or shaft revolution counter 
for determination of distance driven.
    (2) In lieu of the requirement in (b) (1) of this section the 
manufacturer shall provide some means, approved in advance by the 
Administrator, for the determination of distance driven.
    (c) Small twin-roll dynamometers shall have a nominal roll diameter 
of 8.65 inches and a nominal roll spacing of 17 inches. Large single-
roll dynamometers shall have a nominal roll diameter of 48 inches. 
Dynamometers with other roll specifications may be used if the total 
simulated road load power can be shown to be equivalent, and if approved 
in advance by the Administrator.
[42 FR 45651, Sept. 12, 1977]



Sec. 86.109-90  Exhaust gas sampling system; Otto-cycle vehicles.

    (a)(1) General. The exhaust gas sampling system described in this 
paragraph is designed to measure the true mass of gaseous emissions in 
the exhaust of either Otto-cycle light-duty vehicles and light-duty 
trucks. In the CVS concept of measuring mass emissions, two conditions 
must be satisfied: the total volume of the mixture of exhaust and 
dilution air must be measured, and a continuously proportioned volume of 
sample must be collected for analysis. Mass emissions are determined 
from the sample concentration and total flow over the test period.
    (2) Vehicle tailpipe to CVS Duct. For methanol-fueled vehicles, 
cooling of the exhaust gases in the duct connecting the vehicle tailpipe 
to the CVS shall be minimized. This may be accomplished by:
    (i) Using a duct of unrestricted length maintained at 
235 deg.15  deg.F (113 deg.8  deg.C), heating 
and possible cooling capabilities are required; or
    (ii) Using a short duct (up to 12 feet long) constructed of smooth 
wall pipe with a minimum of flexible sections, maintained at 
235 deg.15  deg.F (113 deg.8  deg.C) prior to 
the test and during the 10 minute hot soak segment and uninsulated 
during the test (insulation may remain in place and/or heating may occur 
during testing provided maximum temperature is not exceeded); or
    (iii) Using smooth wall duct less than five feet long with no 
required heating.
    (iv) Omitting the duct and performing the exhaust gas dilution 
function at the vehicle tailpipe exit.
    (3) Positive displacement pump. The Positive Displacement Pump-
Constant Volume Sampler (PDP-CVS), Figure B90-1 satisfies the first 
condition by metering at a constant temperature and pressure through the 
pump. The total volume is measured by counting the revolutions made by 
the calibrated positive displacement pump. The proportional samples for 
the bag sample, and for methanol-fueled vehicles, the methanol sample 
(Figure B90-2) and the formaldehyde sample (Figure B90-3), are achieved 
by sampling at a constant flow rate. For methanol-fueled vehicles, the 
sample lines for the methanol and formaldehyde samples are heated to 
235 deg.15  deg.F (113 deg.8  deg.C).

    Note:  For 1990 through 1994 model year methanol-fueled vehicles, 
methanol and formaldehyde sampling may be omitted provided the bag 
sample (hydrocarbons and methanol) is analyzed using a HFID calibrated 
with methanol.

    (4) Critical flow venturi. The operation of the Critical Flow 
Venturi--Constant Volume Sampler (CFV-CVS) sample system, Figure B90-4, 
is based upon the principles of fluid dynamics associated with critical 
flow. Proportional sampling throughout temperature excursions is 
maintained by use of small

[[Page 379]]

CFVs in the sample lines (for methanol-fueled vehicles, one line 
supplies sample for the bag sample, another line supplies sample for the 
methanol sample, and a third line supplies sample for the formaldehyde 
sample.) The methanol and formaldehyde sample lines are heated to 
235 deg.15  deg.F (113 deg.8  deg.C) with care 
being taken to ensure that the CFVs of the sample probes are not heated 
since heating of the CFVs would cause loss of proportionality. The 
variable mixture flow rate is maintained at sonic velocity, is inversely 
proportional to the square root of the gas temperature, and is computed 
continuously. Since the pressure and temperature are the same at all 
venturi inlets, the sample volume is proportional to the total volume.

    Note:  For 1990 through 1994 model year methanol-fueled vehicles, 
methanol and formaldehyde sampling may be omitted provided the bag 
sample (hydrocarbons and methanol) is analyzed using a HFID calibrated 
with methanol.

    (5) Other systems. Other sampling systems may be used if shown to 
yield equivalent results, and if approved in advance by the 
Administrator.
    (b) Component description, PDP-CVS. The PDP-CVS, Figure B90-1, 
consists of a dilution air filter and mixing assembly, heat exchanger, 
positive displacement pump, sampling systems (see Figure B90-2 for 
methanol sampling system and Figure B90-3 for formaldehyde sampling 
system) sampling lines which are heated to 235 deg.15  deg.F 
(113 deg.8  deg.C) in the case of the methanol-fueled 
vehicles (heating of the sample lines may be omitted, provided the 
methanol and formaldehyde sample collection systems are close coupled to

[[Page 381]]

the probes thereby preventing loss of sample due to cooling and 
resulting condensation in the sample lines), and associated valves, 
pressure and temperature sensors. The PDP-CVS shall conform to the 
following requirements:
    (1) Static pressure variations at the tailpipe(s) of the vehicle 
shall remain within 5 inches of water (1.2 kPa) of the 
static pressure variations measured during a dynamometer driving cycle 
with no connection to the tailpipe(s). (Sampling systems capable of 
maintaining the static pressure to within 1 inch of water 
(0.25 kPa) will be used by the Administrator if a written request 
substantiates the need for this closer tolerance.)
    (2) The gas mixture temperature, measured at a point immediately 
ahead of the positive displacement pump, shall be within 10 
deg.F (5.6  deg.C) of the designed operating temperature at 
the start of the test. The gas mixture temperature variation from its 
value at the start of the test shall be limited to 10  deg.F 
(5.6  deg.C) during the entire test. The temperature 
measuring system shall have an accuracy and precision of 2 
deg.F (1.1  deg.C).
    (3) The pressure gauges shall have an accuracy and precision of 
1.6 inches of water (0.4 kPa).
    (4) The flow capacity of the CVS shall be large enough to eliminate 
water condensation in the system. (300 to 350 cfm (0.142 to 0.165 
m3/s) is sufficient for most petroleum-fueled vehicles. 
Higher flow rates are required for methanol fueled vehicles. Procedures 
for determining CVS flow rates are detailed in``Calculation of Emissions 
and Fuel Economy When Using Alternative Fuels,'' EPA 460/3-83-009.)
    (5) Sample collection bags for dilution air and exhaust samples 
shall be of sufficient size so as not to impede sample flow. A single 
dilution air sample, covering the total test period, may be collected 
for determination of formaldehyde background (methanol-fueled vehicles).
    (6) The methanol sample collection system and the formaldehyde 
sample collection system shall each be of sufficient capacity so as to 
collect samples of adequate size for analysis without significant impact 
on the volume of dilute exhaust passing through the PDP.
    (c) Component description, CFV-CVS. The CFV-CVS sample system, 
Figure B90-4, consists of a dilution air filter and mixing assembly, a 
cyclone particulate separator, unheated sampling venturies for the bag 
samples, and for the methanol and formaldehyde samples from methanol-
fueled vehicles, samples lines heated to 235 deg.15  deg.F 
(113 deg.8  deg.C) for the methanol and formaldehyde samples 
from methanol fueled vehicles (heating of the sample lines may be 
omitted provided, the methanol and formaldehyde sample collection 
systems are close coupled to the probes thereby preventing loss of 
sample due to cooling and resulting condensation in the sample lines), a 
critical flow venturi, and assorted valves, and pressure and temperature 
sensors. The CFV sample system shall conform to the following 
requirements:
    (1) Static pressure variations at the tailpipe(s) of the vehicle 
shall remain within 5 inches of water (1.2 kPa) of the 
static pressure variations measured during a dynamometer driving cycle 
with no connection to the tailpipe(s). (Sampling systems capable of 
maintaining the static pressure to within 1 inch of water 
(0.25 kPa) will be used by the Administrator if a written request 
substantiates the need for this closer tolerance.)
    (2) The temperature measuring system shall have an accuracy and 
precision of 2  deg.F (1.1  deg.C) and a response time of 
0.100 seconds to 62.5 percent of a temperature change (as measured in 
hot silicone oil).
    (3) The pressure measuring system shall have an accuracy and 
precision of 1.6 inches of water (0.4 kPa).
    (4) The flow capacity of the CVS shall be large enough to virtually 
eliminate water condensation in the system (300 to 350 cfm (0.142 to 
0.165 m3/s) is sufficient for most petroleum-fueled 
vehicles). Higher flow rates are required with methanol-fueled vehicles. 
Procedures for determining CVS flow rates are detailed in``Calculation 
of Emission and Fuel Economy When Using Alternative Fuels,'' EPA 460/3-
83-009.
    (5) Sample collection bags for dilution air and exhaust samples 
shall be of sufficient size so as not to impede sample flow. A single 
dilution air sample covering the total test period may be

[[Page 382]]

collected for determination of formaldehyde background for methanol-
fueled vehicles.
    (6) The methanol sample collection system and the formaldehyde 
sample collection system shall each be of sufficient capacity so as to 
collect samples of adequate size for analysis without significant impact 
on the volume of dilute exhaust passing through the CFV-CVS.

Sec. 86.109-94  Exhaust gas sampling system; Otto-cycle vehicles not requiring particulate emission measurements.

    (a)(1) General. The exhaust gas sampling system described in this 
paragraph is designed to measure the true mass of gaseous emissions in 
the exhaust of either Otto-cycle light-duty vehicles or light-duty 
trucks which are waived from requirements for the measurement of 
particulate emissions. In the CVS concept of measuring mass emissions, 
two conditions must be satisfied: the total volume of the mixture of 
exhaust and dilution air must be measured, and a continuously 
proportioned volume of sample must be collected for analysis. Mass 
emissions are determined from the sample concentration and total flow 
over the test period.
    (2) Vehicle tailpipe to CVS Duct. For methanol-fueled vehicles, 
cooling of the exhaust gases in the duct connecting the vehicle tailpipe 
to the CVS shall be minimized. This may be accomplished by:
    (i) Using a duct of unrestricted length maintained at a temperature 
above the maximum dew point of the exhaust, but below 250  deg.F (121 
deg.C); heating and possibly cooling capabilities are required; or
    (ii) Using a short duct (up to 12 feet long) constructed of smooth 
wall pipe with a minimum of flexible sections, maintained at a 
temperature above the maximum dew point of the exhaust, but below 250 
deg.F (121  deg.C), prior to the test and during the 10 minute hot soak 
segment and uninsulated during the test (insulation may remain in place 
and/or heating may occur during testing provided maximum temperature is 
not exceeded); or
    (iii) Using smooth wall duct less than five feet long with no 
required heating. A maximum of two short flexible connectors are allowed 
under this option; or
    (iv) Omitting the duct and performing the exhaust gas dilution 
function at the vehicle tailpipe exit.
    (3) Positive displacement pump. The Positive Displacement Pump-
Constant Volume Sampler (PDP-CVS), Figure B94-1 satisfies the first 
condition by metering at a constant temperature and pressure through the 
pump. The total volume is measured by counting the revolutions made by 
the calibrated positive displacement pump. The proportional samples for 
the bag sample, and for methanol-fueled vehicles, the methanol sample 
(Figure B94-2) and the formaldehyde sample (Figure B94-3), are achieved 
by sampling at a constant flow rate. For methanol-fueled vehicles, the 
sample lines for the methanol and formaldehyde samples are heated to 
prevent condensation. The temperature of the sample lines shall be more 
than 5  deg.F (3  deg.C) above the maximum dew point of the sample, but 
below 250  deg.F (121  deg.C). (Note: For 1990 through 1994 model year 
methanol-fueled vehicles, methanol and formaldehyde sampling may be 
omitted provided the bag sample (hydrocarbons and methanol) is analyzed 
using a HFID calibrated with methanol.)

    (4) Critical flow venturi. The operation of the Critical Flow 
Venturi-Constant Volume Sampler (CFV-CVS) sample system, Figure B94-4, 
is based upon the principles of fluid dynamics associated with critical 
flow. Proportional sampling throughout temperature excursions is 
maintained by use of small

[[Page 386]]

CFVs in the sample lines (for methanol-fueled vehicles, one line 
supplies sample for the bag sample, another line supplies sample for the 
methanol sample, and a third line supplies sample for the formaldehyde 
sample.) The methanol and formaldehyde sample lines are heated to 
prevent condensation. The temperature of the sample lines shall be more 
than 5  deg.F (3  deg.C) above the maximum dew point of the sample, but 
below 250  deg.F (121  deg.C). Care should be taken to ensure that the 
CFVs of the sample probes are not heated since heating of the CFVs would 
cause loss of proportionality. The variable mixture flow rate is 
maintained at sonic velocity, is inversely proportional to the square 
root of the gas temperature, and is computed continuously. Since the 
pressure and temperature are the same at all venturi inlets, the sample 
volume is proportional to the total volume. (Note: For 1990 through 1994 
model year methanol-fueled vehicles, methanol and formaldehyde sampling 
may be omitted provided the bag sample (hydrocarbons and methanol) is 
analyzed using a HFID calibrated with methanol.)

    (5) Electronic flow control. The Critical Flow Venturi-Electronic 
Flow Control-Constant Volume Sampler (CFV-EFC-CVS) system is identical 
to the CFV-CVS system described in paragraphs (a)(4) and (c) of this 
section, except that it maintains proportional sampling for methanol and 
formaldehyde by measuring the CVS flow rate, and electronically 
controlling sample flow rates. For methanol-fueled vehicles, the samples 
lines for the methanol and formaldehyde samples are heated to prevent 
condensation. The temperature of the sample lines shall be more than 5 
deg.F (3  deg.C) above the maximum dew

[[Page 388]]

point of the sample, but below 250  deg.F (121  deg.C).
    (6) Other systems. Other sampling systems may be used if shown to 
yield equivalent or superior results, and if approved in advance by the 
Administrator.
    (b) Component description, PDP-CVS. The PDP-CVS, Figure B94-1, 
consists of a dilution air filter and mixing assembly, heat exchanger, 
positive displacement pump, sampling systems (see Figure B94-2 for 
methanol sampling system and Figure B94-3 for formaldehyde sampling 
system) sampling lines which are heated to a temperature that is more 
than 5  deg.F (3  deg.C) above the maximum dew point of the sample, but 
below 250  deg.F (121  deg.C) in the case of the methanol-fueled 
vehicles (heating of the sample lines may be omitted, provided the 
methanol and formaldehyde sample collection systems are close coupled to 
the probes thereby preventing loss of sample due to cooling and 
resulting condensation in the sample lines), and associated valves, 
pressure and temperature sensors. The PDP-CVS shall conform to the 
following requirements:
    (1) Static pressure variations at the tailpipe(s) of the vehicle 
shall remain within 5 inches of water (1.2 kPa) of the 
static pressure variations measured during a dynamometer driving cycle 
with no connection to the tailpipe(s). (Sampling systems capable of 
maintaining the static pressure to within 1 inch of water 
(0.25 kPa) will be used by the Administrator if a written request 
substantiates the need for this closer tolerance.)
    (2) The gas mixture temperature, measured at a point immediately 
ahead of the positive displacement pump, shall be within 10 
deg.F (5.6  deg.C) of the designed operating temperature at 
the start of the test. The gas mixture temperature variation from its 
value at the start of the test shall be limited to 10  deg.F 
(5.6  deg.C) during the entire test. The temperature 
measuring system shall have an accuracy and precision of 2 
deg.F (1.1  deg.C).
    (3) The pressure gauges shall have an accuracy and precision of 
1.6 inches of water (0.4 kPa).
    (4) The flow capacity of the CVS shall be large enough to completely 
eliminate water condensation in the dilution and sampling systems. (300 
to 350 cfm (0.142 to 0.165 m3/s) is sufficient for most 
petroleum-fueled vehicles. Higher flow rates are required for methanol-
fueled vehicles and may be required for natural gas-fueled and liquefied 
petroleum gas-fueled vehicles. Procedures for determining CVS flow rates 
are detailed in ``Calculation of Emissions and Fuel Economy When Using 
Alternative Fuels,'' EPA 460/3-83-009.) (Copies may be obtained from 
U.S. Department of Commerce, NTIS, Springfield, Virginia 22161; order 
 PB 84104702.) Dehumidifying the dilution air before 
entering the CVS is allowed. Hearing the dilution air is also allowed, 
provided:
    (i) The air (or air plus exhaust gas) temperature does not exceed 
250  deg.F.
    (ii) Calculation of the CVS flow rate necessary to prevent water 
condensation is based on the lowest temperature encountered in the CVS 
prior to sampling. (It is recommended that the CVS system be insulated 
when heated dilution air is used.)
    (iii) The dilution ratio is sufficiently high to prevent 
condensation in bag samples as they cool to room temperature.
    (5) Sample collection bags for dilution air and exhaust samples 
shall be of sufficient size so as not to impede sample flow. A single 
dilution air sample, covering the total test period, may be collected 
for the determination of methanol and formaldehyde background (methanol-
fueled vehicles).
    (6) The methanol sample collection system and the formaldehyde 
sample collection system shall each be of sufficient capacity so as to 
collect samples of adequate size for analysis without significant impact 
on the volume of dilute exhaust passing through the PDP. The systems 
shall also comply with the following requirements that apply to the 
design of the systems, not to individual tests.
    (i) The methanol system shall be designed such that, if a test 
vehicle emitted the maximum allowable level of methanol (based on all 
applicable standards) during the first phase of the test, the measured 
concentration in the primary impinger would exceed either 25 mg/l or a 
concentration equal to 25 times the limit of detection for the

[[Page 389]]

GC analyzer. Sampling systems for all phases shall be identical.
    (ii) The formaldehyde system shall be designed such that, if a test 
vehicle emitted formaldehyde at a rate equal to twenty percent of the 
maximum allowable level of NMHCE (i.e., 0.05 g/mi for a 0.25 g/mi NMHCE 
standard), or the maximum formaldehyde level allowed by a specific 
formaldehyde standard, whichever is less, during the first phase of the 
test, the concentration of formaldehyde in the DNPH solution of the 
primary impinger, or solution resulting from the extraction of the DNPH 
cartridge, shall exceed either 2.5 mg/l or a concentration equal to 25 
times the limit of detection for the HPLC analyzer. Sampling systems for 
all phases shall be identical.
    (iii) The methanol and formaldehyde impinger systems shall be 
designed such that the primary impinger collects at least 90 percent of 
the analyte in the samples. The remaining analyte shall be collected by 
the secondary impinger. This requirement does not apply to dilution air 
samples, since they do not require secondary impingers, or to samples in 
which the concentrations approach the limit of detection.
    (c) Component description, CFV-CVS. The CFV-CVS sample system, 
Figure B94-4, consists of a dilution air filter and mixing assembly, a 
cyclone particulate separator, unheated sampling venturies for the bag 
samples, and for the methanol and formaldehyde samples from methanol-
fueled vehicles, samples lines heated to a temperature that is more than 
5  deg.F (3  deg.C) above the maximum dew point of the sample, but below 
250  deg.F (121  deg.C) for the methanol and formaldehyde samples from 
methanol fueled vehicles (heating of the sample lines may be omitted 
provided, the methanol and formaldehyde sample collection systems are 
close coupled to the probes thereby preventing loss of sample due to 
cooling and resulting condensation in the sample lines), a critical flow 
venturi, and assorted valves, and pressure and temperature sensors. The 
CFV sample system shall conform to the following requirements:
    (1) Static pressure variations at the tailpipe(s) of the vehicle 
shall remain within 5 inches of water (1.2 kPa) of the 
static pressure variations measured during a dynamometer driving cycle 
with no connection to the tailpipe(s). (Sampling systems capable of 
maintaining the static pressure to within 1 inch of water 
(0.25 kPa) will be used by the Administrator if a written request 
substantiates the need for this closer tolerance.)
    (2) The temperature measuring system shall have an accuracy and 
precision of 2  deg.F (1.1  deg.C) and a response time of 
0.100 seconds to 62.5 percent of a temperature change (as measured in 
hot silicone oil).
    (3) The pressure measuring system shall have an accuracy and 
precision of 1.6 inches of water (0.4 kPa).
    (4) The flow capacity of the CVS shall be large enough to completely 
eliminate water condensation in the dilution and sampling systems. (300 
to 350 cfm (0.142 to 0.165 m3/s) is sufficient for most 
petroleum-fueled vehicles. Higher flow rates are required for methanol-
fueled vehicles and may be required for natural gas-fueled and liquefied 
petroleum gas-fueled vehicles. Procedures for determining CVS flow rates 
are detailed in ``Calculation of Emissions and Fuel Economy When Using

before entering the CVS is allowed. Heating the dilution air is also 
allowed, provided:
    (i) The air (or air plus exhaust gas) temperature does not exceed 
250  deg.F (121  deg.C).
    (ii) Calculation of the CVS flow rate necessary to prevent water 
condensation is based on the lowest temperature encountered in the CVS 
prior to sampling. (It is recommended that the CVS system be insulated 
when heated dilution air is used.)

shall be of sufficient size so as not to impede sample flow. A single 
dilution air sample, covering the total test period, may be collected 
for the determination of methanol and formaldehyde background (methanol-
fueled vehicles).
    (6) The methanol sample collection system and the formaldehyde 
sample

[[Page 390]]

collection system shall each be of sufficient capacity so as to collect 
samples of adequate size for analysis without significant impact on the 
volume of dilute exhaust passing through the CVS. The systems shall also 
comply with the following requirements that apply to the design of the 
systems, not to individual tests.
    (i) The methanol system shall be designed such that, if a test 
vehicle emitted the maximum allowable level of methanol (based on all 
applicable standards) during the first phase of the test, the measured 
concentration in the primary impinger would exceed either 25 mg/l or a 
concentration equal to 25 times the limit of detection for the GC 
analyzer. Sampling systems for all phases shall be identical.
    (ii) The formaldehyde system shall be designed such that, if a test 
vehicle emitted formaldehyde at a rate equal to twenty percent of the 
maximum allowable level of NMHCE (i.e., 0.05 g/mi for a 0.25 g/mi NMHCE 
standard), or the maximum formaldehyde level allowed by a specific 
formaldehyde standard, whichever is less, during the first phase of the 
test, the concentration of formaldehyde in the DNPH solution of the 
primary impinger, or solution resulting from the extraction of the DNPH 
cartridge, shall exceed either 2.5 mg/l or a concentration equal to 25 
times the limit of detection for the HPLC analyzer. Sampling systems for 
all phases shall be identical.
    (iii) The methanol and formaldehyde systems shall be designed such 
that the primary impinger collects at least 90 percent of the analyte in 
the samples. The remaining analyte shall be collected by the secondary 
impinger. This requirement does not apply to dilution air samples, since 
they do not require secondary impingers, or to samples in which the 
concentrations approach the limit of detection.
    (d) Component description, CFV-EFC-CVS. The CVS sample system is 
identical to the system described in paragraph (c) of this section, plus 
includes a means of electronically measuring the CVS flow rate, and 
electronic mass flow controllers for the methanol and formaldehyde 
sample lines. The EFC sample system shall conform to all of the 
requirements listed in paragraph (c), except that the methanol and 
formaldehyde samples must both be drawn from a static probe. It also 
must comply with the following additional requirements:
    (1) The ratio of the CVS mass flow rate to the sample mass flow rate 
shall not deviate from the design ratio by more than 5 
percent. (The volumetric sample flow rate shall be varied inversely with 
the square root of the bulk stream temperature.)
    (2) Flow meters to totalize sample volumes for methanol and/or 
formaldehyde samples shall meet the accuracy specifications of 
Sec. 86.120. Total sample volumes may be obtained from the flow 
controllers, provided that the controllers meet the accuracy 
specifications of Sec. 86.120.

Sec. 86.110-90  Exhaust gas sampling system; diesel vehicles.

    (a) General. The exhaust gas sampling system described in this 
paragraph is designed to measure the true mass of both gaseous and 
particulate emissions in the exhaust of either diesel light-duty 
vehicles and light-duty trucks. This system utilizes the CVS concept 
(described in Sec. 86.109) of measuring mass emissions. The mass of 
gaseous emissions is determined from the sample concentration and total 
flow over the test period. The mass of particulate emissions is 
determined from a proportional mass sample collected on a filter and 
from the total flow over the test period. General requirements are as 
follows:
    (1) This sampling system requires the use of a PDP-CVS or a CFV 
sample system with heat exchanger connected to a dilution tunnel. Figure 
B90-5 is a schematic drawing of the PDP system. Figure B90-6 is a 
schematic drawing of the CFV system (methanol-fueled Otto-cycle vehicles 
may be tested using this test equipment.)

[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR06OC93.150

    (2) Bag, HFID, and particulate sampling capabilities as shown in 
Figure B90-5 (or Figure B90-6) are required to provide both gaseous and 
particulate emissions sampling capabilities from a single system.

[[Page 393]]

    (3) Petroleum-fueled diesel vehicles require a heated flame 
ionization detector (HFID) (375 deg.20  deg.F 
(191 deg.11  deg.C)) sample for hydrocarbon analysis. The 
HFID sample must be taken directly from the diluted exhaust stream 
through a heated probe in the dilution tunnel.
    (4) Methanol-fueled vehicles require the use of a heated flame 
ionization detector (HFID) (235 deg.15  deg.F 
(113 deg.8  deg.C)) for hydrocarbon analysis. With an HFID, 
the hydrocarbon analysis can be made on the bag sample and the methanol 
and formaldehyde analyses are performed on the samples collected for 
these purposes (Figures B90-2 and B90-3). NOTE: For 1990 through 1994 
model year methanol-fueled vehicles, methanol and formaldehyde sampling 
may be omitted provided the bag sample is analyzed using a HFID 
calibrated with methanol.
    (5) Methanol-fueled vehicles require either:
    (i) A tailpipe to dilution tunnel duct of unrestricted length 
maintained at 235 deg.15  deg.F (113 deg.8 
deg.C) through heating and cooling as required; or
    (ii) Using short duct (up to 12 feet long) constructed of smooth 
wall pipe with a minimum of flexible sections maintained at 
235 deg.15  deg.F (113 deg.  deg.C) prior to the 
test and during breaks in testing (insulation may remain in place and/or 
heating may occur during testing provided maximum temperature is not 
exceeded); or
    (iii) Using a smooth wall duct less than five feet long with no 
required heating, or
    (iv) Omitting the duct and performing the exhaust gas dilution 
function at the vehicle tailpipe exit.
    (6) Since various configurations can produce equivalent results, 
exact conformance with these drawings is not required. Additional 
components such as instruments, valves, solenoids, pumps, and switches 
may be used to provide additional information and coordinate the 
functions of the component systems.
    (7) Other sampling systems may be used if shown to yield equivalent 
results and if approved in advance by the Administrator.
    (b) Component description--petroleum-fueled diesel vehicles. The 
components necessary for petroleum fueled diesel vehicle exhaust 
sampling shall meet the following requirements:
    (1) The PDP-CVS, Figure B90-5, shall conform to all of the 
requirements listed for the exhaust gas PDP-CVS (Sec. 86.109(b)), with 
one exception: a flow rate of sufficient volume is required to maintain 
the diluted exhaust stream, from which the particulate sample flow is 
taken, at a temperature of 125  deg.F (52  deg.C) or less.
    (2) The CFV sample system, Figure B90-6, shall conform to all of the 
requirements listed for the exhaust gas CFV sample system 
(Sec. 86.109(c)), with four exceptions:
    (i) A flow rate of sufficient volume is required to maintain the 
diluted exhaust stream, from which the particulate sample flow is taken, 
at a temperature of 125  deg.F (52  deg.C) or less.
    (ii) A heat exchanger is required.
    (iii) The gas mixture temperature, measured at a point immediately 
ahead of the critical flow venturi, shall be within 20 
deg.F (11  deg.C) of the designed operating temperature at the start of 
the test. The gas mixture temperature variation from its value at the 
start of the test shall be limited to 20  deg.F (11  deg.C) 
during the entire test. The temperature measuring system shall have an 
accuracy and precision of 2  deg.F (1.1  deg.C).
    (iv) The cyclonic separator is optional.
    (3) The transfer of heat from the vehicle exhaust gas shall be 
minimized between the point where it leaves the vehicle tailpipe(s) and 
the point where it enters the dilution tunnel airstream. To accomplish 
this, a short length (not more than 12 feet (365 cm) if uninsulated, or 
not more than 20 feet (610 cm) if insulated) of smooth stainless steel 
tubing from the tailpipe to the dilution tunnel is required. This tubing 
shall have a maximum inside diameter of 4.0 inches (10.2 cm). Short 
sections of flexible tubing at connection points are allowed.
    (4) The vehicle exhaust shall be directed downstream at the point 
where it is introduced into the dilution tunnel.
    (5) The dilution air shall be between 68  deg.F (20  deg.C) and 86 
deg.F (30  deg.C) during the test.

[[Page 394]]

    (6) The dilution tunnel shall be:

[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR06OC93.013

filter and the primary test filter.

[[Page 397]]

also acceptable. (Larger diameter filters may be desirable in order to

produce large amounts of particulate.)
    (3) The recommended minimum loading on the primary 47 mm filter is 
0.5 milligrams. Equivalent loadings (i.e., mass/stain area) are 
recommended for larger filters.

(membrane) filters are required for particulate collection.

Sec. 86.110-94  Exhaust gas sampling system; diesel-cycle vehicles, and Otto-cycle vehicles requiring particulate emissions measurements.

    Section 86.110-94 includes text that specifies requirements that 
differ from Sec. 86.110-90. Where a paragraph in Sec. 86.110-90 is 
identical and applicable to Sec. 86.110-94, this may be indicated by 
specifying the corresponding paragraph and the statement ``[Reserved]. 
For guidance see Sec. 86.110-90.'' Where a corresponding paragraph of 
Sec. 86.110-90 is not applicable, this is indicated by the statement 
``[Reserved].''
    (a) General. The exhaust gas sampling system described in this 
paragraph is designed to measure the true mass of both gaseous and 
particulate emissions in the exhaust of either diesel-cycle or Otto-
cycle light-duty vehicles and light-duty trucks. This system utilizes 
the CVS concept (described in Sec. 86.109) of measuring mass emissions. 
The mass of gaseous emissions is determined from the sample 
concentration and total flow over the test period. The mass of 
particulate emissions is determined from a proportional mass sample 
collected on a filter and from the total flow over the test period. 
General requirements are as follows:
    (1) This sampling system requires the use of a PDP-CVS, CFV-CVS (or 
a CFV-EFC-CVS), sample system with heat exchanger connected to a 
dilution tunnel. The heat exchanger is not required for the CFV-CVS or 
EFC-CFV-CVS if electronic flow controllers are used to maintain 
proportionality for the particulate sample. Figure B94-5 is a schematic 
drawing of the PDP system. Figure B94-6 is a schematic drawing of the 
CFV-CVS system. (Methanol-fueled Otto-cycle vehicles may be tested using 
this test equipment, without measuring particulate emissions.)

    (2) Bag, continuous HFID (required for petroleum-fueled diesel-cycle 
and optional for methanol-fueled, natural gas-fueled and liquefied 
petroleum gas-fueled diesel-cycle vehicles), and particulate sampling 
capabilities as shown in Figure B94-5 (or Figure B94-6) are required to 
provide both gaseous and particulate emissions sampling capabilities 
from a single system.
    (3) Petroleum-fueled diesel-cycle vehicles require a heated flame 
ionization detector (HFID) (375  deg.20  deg.F (191 
deg.11  deg.C)) sample for total hydrocarbon (THC) analysis. 
The HFID sample must

[[Page 400]]

be taken directly from the diluted exhaust stream through a heated probe 
in the dilution tunnel.
    (4) Methanol-fueled vehicles require the use of a heated flame 
ionization detector (HFID) (235  deg.15  deg.F (113 
deg.8  deg.C)) for hydrocarbon analysis. With an HFID, the 
hydrocarbon analysis can be made on the bag sample and the methanol and 
formaldehyde analyses are performed on the samples collected for these 
purposes (Figures B94-2 and B94-3).

    Note:  For 1990 through 1994 model year methanol-fueled vehicles, 
methanol and formaldehyde sampling may be omitted provided the bag 
sample is analyzed using a HFID calibrated with methanol.

    (5) For methanol-fueled vehicles, the vehicle tailpipe-to-dilution 
tunnel connection shall be made by:
    (i) A tailpipe to dilution tunnel duct of unrestricted length 
maintained at a temperature above the dew point of the mixture, but 
below 250  deg.F (121  deg.C) through heating and cooling as required; 
or
    (ii) Using a short duct (up to 12 feet long) constructed of smooth 
wall pipe with a minimum of flexible sections maintained at a 
temperature above the dew point of the mixture, but below 250  deg.F 
(121  deg.C) prior to the test and during breaks in testing (insulation 
may remain in place and or heating may occur during the testing provided 
the maximum temperature is not exceeded); or
    (iii) Using smooth wall duct less than five feet long with no 
required heating. A maximum of two short flexible connectors are allowed 
under this option; or
    (iv) By omitting the duct and performing the exhaust gas dilution 
function at the vehicle tailpipe exit.
    (6) For natural gas-fueled and liquefied petroleum gas-fueled diesel 
vehicles either a heated flame ionization detector (HFID) 
[375 deg.20  deg.F (191 deg.11  deg.C)] or a 
non-heated flame ionization detector may be used for hydrocarbon 
analysis.
    (7) Since various configurations can produce equivalent results, 
exact conformance with these drawings is not required. Additional 
components such as instruments, valves, solenoids, pumps, and switches 
may be used to provide additional information and coordinate the 
functions of the component systems.
    (8) Other sampling systems may be used if shown to yield equivalent 
or superior results and if approved in advance by the Administrator.
    (b) Component description--petroleum-fueled, natural gas-fueled and 
liquefied petroleum gas-fueled vehicles. The components necessary for

taken, at a temperature of 125  deg.F (52  deg.C) or less.
    (2) The CFV sample system, Figure B94-6, shall contain a 
proportional particulate sampling system, and shall conform to all of 
the requirements listed for the exhaust gas CFV sample system

    (i) A flow rate of sufficient volume is required to maintain the 
diluted exhaust stream, from which the particulate sample flow is taken, 
at a temperature of 125  deg.F (52  deg.C) or less.
    (ii) If a constant volume particulate sample is collected, a heat 
exchanger is required.
    (iii) If a heat exchanger is used, the gas mixture temperature, 
measured at a point immediately ahead of the critical flow venturi, 
shall be within  20  deg.F (11  deg.C) of the designed 
operating temperature at the start of the test. The gas mixture

Sec. 86.111-90  Exhaust gas analytical system.

    (a) Schematic drawings. Figure B90-7 is a schematic drawing of the 
exhaust gas analytical system for analysis of hydrocarbons (HC) 
(hydrocarbons plus methanol in the case of methanol-fueled vehicles), 
carbon monoxide (CO), carbon dioxide (CO2), and oxides of 
nitrogen (NOX). The schematic diagram of the hydrocarbon 
analysis train for diesel vehicles (and for hydrocarbons plus methanol 
for methanol-fueled diesel vehicles if continuous HFID analysis is 
employed) is shown as part of Figure B90-5 (or Figure B90-6). Since 
various configurations can produce accurate results, exact conformance 
with either drawing is not required. Additional components such as 
instruments, valves, solenoids, pumps and switches may be used to 
provide additional information and coordinate the functions of the 
component systems.

[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR06OC93.153


    (b) Major component description. The exhaust gas analytical system 
for HC, CO, CO2, and NOX, Figure B90-7, consists 
of a flame ionization detector (FID) (heated, 235 deg.15 
deg.F (113 deg.8  deg.C) for methanol-fueled vehicles) for 
the determination of hydrocarbons, non-dispersive infrared analyzers 
(NDIR) for the determination of carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide and a 
chemiluminescence analyzer (CL) for the determination of oxides of 
nitrogen. A heated flame ionization detector (HFID) is used for the 
continuous determination of hydrocarbons from petroleum-fueled diesel 
vehicles (may also be used with methanol-fueled diesel vehicles), Figure 
B90-5 (or B90-6).

[[Page 406]]

The analytical system for methanol consists of a gas chromatograph (GC) 
equipped with a flame ionization detector. The analysis for formaldehyde 
is performed using high pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC) of 2,4-
dinitrophenylhydrazine (DNPH) derivatives using ultraviolet (UV) 
detection. The exhaust gas analytical system shall conform to the 
following requirements:
    (1) The CL requires that the nitrogen dioxide present in the sample 
be converted to nitric oxide before analysis. Other types of analyzers 
may be used if shown to yield equivalent results and if approved in 
advance by the Administrator.
    (2) The carbon monoxide (CO) NDIR analyzer may require a sample 
conditioning column containing CaSO4, or indicating silica 
gel to remove water vapor and containing ascarite to remove carbon 
dioxide from the CO analysis stream.
    (i) If CO instruments which are essentially free of CO2 
and water vapor interference are used, the use of the conditioning 
column may be deleted, see Secs. 86.122 and 86.144.
    (ii) A CO instrument will be considered to be essentially free of 
CO2 and water vapor interference if its response to a mixture 
of 3 percent CO2 in N2 which has been bubbled 
through water at room temperature produces an equivalent CO response, as 
measured on the most sensitive CO range, which is less than l percent of 
full scale CO concentration on ranges above 300 ppm full scale or less 
than 3 ppm on ranges below 300 ppm full scale, see Sec. 86.122.
    (3) For petroleum-fueled diesel vehicles (and if selected, for 
methanol-fueled diesel vehicles) a continuous hydrocarbon sample shall 
be measured using a heated analyzer train as shown in Figure B90-5 (or 
B90-6). The train shall include a heated probe, a heated continuous 
sampling line, a heated particulate filter and a heated hydrocarbon 
instrument (HFID) complete with heated pump, filter and flow control 
system.
    (i) The response time of this instrument shall be less than 1.5 
seconds for 90 percent of full scale response.
    (ii) The continuous HC sample system may use an ``overflow'' zero 
and span system; see Sec. 86.140-82(b)(4). In this type of system 
(figures B82-3A and B82-4A), zero or span gas is introduced into the 
heated sample line at a flow rate that exceeds the sample flow rate to 
the HFID. The excess gas overflows the sample probe into the dilution 
tunnel. This method assures that the reference gas enters HFID in the 
same concentration as the injected reference gas and at the same rate as 
the sample exhaust gas. In addition to zero and span checks, it may also 
be used to calibrate the HC analyzer per Sec. 86.121-82(b). The overflow 
gas flow rate into the sample line shall be greater than 125 percent of 
the HFID flow rate with the CVS blower operating. A lower flow rate may 
be used if it has been experimentally shown to produce equivalent 
results and current dccumentation is maintained. The overflow gases 
shall enter the heated sample line as close as practicable to the 
outside surface of the dilution tunnel.
    (iii) No other analyzers may draw a sample from the continuous HC 
sample probe, line or system, unless a common sample pump is used of all 
analyzers and the single sample line system design reflects good 
engineering practice.
    (iv) Sample transport time from sampling point to inlet of 
instrument shall be less than 4 seconds.
    (v) For petroleum-fueled diesel vehicles, the sample line and filter 
shall be heated to maintain a sample gas temperature of 
375 deg.10  deg.F (191 deg.6  deg.C) before the 
filter and before the HFID.
    (vi) For methanol-fueled diesel vehicles, the sample line and filter 
shall be heated to maintain a sample gas temperature of 
235 deg.15  deg.F (113 deg.8  deg.C) before the 
filter and before the HFID.
    (c) Other analyzers and equipment. Other types of analyzers and 
equipment may be used if shown to yield equivalent results and if 
approved in advance by the Administrator.

    (a) Ambient conditions--(1) Temperature. The temperature of the 
chamber in which the particulate filters are conditioned and weighed 
shall be maintained to within 10  deg.F (6  deg.C) of a set 
point between 68  deg.F (20  deg.C) and 86  deg.F (30  deg.C) during all 
filter conditioning and filter weighing. A continuous recording of the 
temperature is required.
    (2) Humidity. The relative humidity of the chamber in which the 
particulate filters are conditioned and weighed shall be maintained to 
within 10 percent of a set point between 30 and 70 percent 
during all filter conditioning and filter weighing. A continuous 
recording of the temperature is required.
    (3) The environment shall be free from any ambient contaminants 
(such as dust) that would settle on the particulate filters during their 
stabilization.
    (4) It is required that two unused reference filters remain in the 
weighing room at all times in covered (to reduce dust contamination) but 
unsealed (to permit humidity exchange) petri dishes. These reference 
filters shall be placed in the same general area as the sample filters. 
These reference filters shall be weighed within 4 hours of, but 
preferably just prior to, the pre- and post-test sample filter 
weighings.
    (5) If the weight of either of the reference filters changes between 
pre- and post-test sample filter weighings by more than 2.0 
percent of the test average primary filter loading (recommended minimum 
of 0.5 milligrams) or 0.010 milligrams, whichever is 
greater, then the post-test sample filter weights are invalid. However, 
the post-test weighing procedure can be repeated to obtain valid weights 
within the time limits as specified in Sec. 86.139.
    (6) The reference filters shall be changed at least once per month, 
but never between pre- and post-test weighings of a given sample filter. 
The reference filters shall be the same size and material as the sample 
filters.
    (b) Microgram balance specifications. The microgram balance used to 
determine the weights of all filters shall have a precision (standard 
deviation) and a readability of one microgram.

point on the trace within 1 second of the given time.
    (2) The lower limit is 2 mph (3.2 km/h) lower than the lowest point 
on the trace within 1 second of the given time.
    (3)(i) Speed variations greater than the tolerances (such as may 
occur during gear changes or braking spikes) are acceptable, provided 
they occur for less than 2 seconds on any occasion and are clearly 
documented as to the time and speed at that point of the driving 
schedule.
    (ii) When conducted to meet the requirements of Sec. 86.129-94 or 
Sec. 86.153-98(d), up to three additional occurrences of speed 
variations greater than the tolerance are acceptable, provided they 
occur for less than 15 seconds on any occasion, and are clearly 
documented as to the time and speed at that point of the driving 
schedule.
    (4) Speeds lower than those prescribed are acceptable, provided the 
vehicle is operated at maximum available power during such occurrences.

Sec. 86.117-90  Evaporative emission enclosure calibrations.

    The calibration of the evaporative emission enclosure consists of 
three parts: Initial and periodic determination of enclosure background 
emissions (hydrocarbons and methanol); initial determination of 
enclosure internal volume; and periodic hydrocarbon and methanol 
retention check and calibration. Methanol measurements may be omitted 
when methanol-fueled vehicles will not be tested in the evaporative 
enclosure.
    (a) Initial and periodic determination of enclosure background 
emissions. Prior to its introduction into service, annually thereafter, 
and after any repair which can affect the enclosure background 
emissions, the enclosure shall be checked to determine that it does not 
contain materials which will themselves emit hydrocarbons or methanol.* 
Proceed as follows:

    *Note:  When methanol as well as hydrocarbons are present in the 
evaporative enclosure, the HFID hydrocarbon concentration measurement 
includes the partial response of the HFID to methanol plus the 
hydrocarbons. Determination of the HFID response to methanol, 
Sec. 86.121, prior to its being placed in service is required for the 
determination of hydrocarbons.

    (1) Zero and span (calibrate if required) the hydrocarbon analyzer.
    (2) Purge the enclosure until a stable background hydrocarbon 
reading is obtained.
    (3) Turn on the mixing blower (if not already on).
    (4) Seal enclosure and measure background hydrocarbon concentration, 
background methanol, temperature, and barometric pressure. These are the 
initial readings CHCi, CCH3OHi, and 
PBi, Ti, for the enclosure background 
determination.
    (5) Allow the enclosure to stand undisturbed without sampling for 
four hours.
    (6) Measure the hydrocarbon concentration on the same FID and the 
methanol level. These are the final concentrations, CHCf and 
CCH3OHf. Also measure final temperature and barometric 
pressure.
    (7) Calculate the mass change of methanol, hydrocarbons, and 
hydrocarbons plus methanol in the enclosure according to the equations 
in paragraph (d) of this section. The enclosure background emissions 
(hydrocarbons plus methanol) shall not be greater than 0.4g for the 4 
hours.
    (b) Initial determination of enclosure internal volume. Prior to its 
introduction into service the enclosure internal volume shall be 
determined by the following procedure:
    (1) Carefully measure the internal length, width and height of the 
enclosure, accounting for irregularities (such as braces) and calculate 
the internal volume.
    (2) Perform an enclosure calibration check according to paragraphs 
(c) (1) through (7) of this section.
    (3) If the calculated mass does not agree within 2 percent of the 
injected propane mass, then corrective action is required.
    (c) Hydrocarbon and methanol (organic gas) retention check and 
calibration. The hydrocarbon and methanol (if the enclosure is used for 
methanol-fueled vehicles) retention check provides a check upon the 
calculated volume and also measures the leak rate. Prior to its 
introduction into service and at least monthly thereafter (the methanol 
check can be performed less frequently, provided it is performed at 
least twice annually) the enclosure leak rate shall be determined as 
follows:
    (1) Zero and span (calibrate if required) the hydrocarbon analyzer.

[[Page 422]]

    (2) Purge the enclosure until a stable background hydrocarbon 
reading is obtained.
    (3) Turn on the mixing blower (if not already on).
    (4) Seal enclosure and measure background hydrocarbon concentration, 
background methanol, temperature, and barometric pressure. These are the 
initial readings CHCi, CCH3OHi, Ti and 
PBi for the enclosure calibration.
    (5) Inject into the enclosure a known quantity of pure propane (4g 
is a convenient quantity) and a known quantity of pure methanol (4g is a 
convenient quantity) in gaseous form; i.e., at a temperature of at least 
150-155  deg.F (65-68  deg.C). The propane and methanol may be measured 
by volume flow or by mass measurement. The method used to measure the 
propane and methanol shall have an accuracy of 0.5 percent 
of the measured value (less accurate methods may be used with the 
advanced approval of the Administrator). The methanol and propane tests 
do not need to be conducted simultaneously.
    (6) After a minimum of 5 minutes of mixing, analyze the enclosure 
atmosphere for hydrocarbon and methanol content, also record temperature 
and pressure. These measurements are the final readings for the 
enclosure calibration as well as the initial readings for the retention 
check.
    (7) To verify the enclosure calibration, calculate the mass of 
propane and the mass of methanol using the measurements taken in steps 
(4) and (6) (see paragraph (d) of this section). This quantity must be 
within 2 percent of that measured in step 5 above. (For 
1991-1995 calendar years, the difference may exceed 2 
percent for methanol, provided it does not exceed 8 percent 
for 1991 testing and 6 percent for 1992-1995 testing.)
    (8) Allow the enclosure to remain sealed for a minimum of 4 hours, 
analyze the enclosure atmosphere for hydrocarbon and methanol content; 
record temperature and barometric pressure. These are the final readings 
for the hydrocarbon and methanol retention check.
    (9) Calculate, using the equations in paragraph (d) of this section 
and the readings taken in step (8), the hydrocarbon and methanol mass. 
It may not differ by more than 4 percent of the value in 
step (6). (For 1991-1995 calendar years, the difference may exceed 
4 percent for methanol, provided it does not exceed 
8 percent for 1991 testing and 6 percent for 
1992-1995 testing.)
    (d) Calculations. (1) The calculation of net methanol and 
hydrocarbon mass change is used to determine enclosure background and 
leak rate. It is also used to check the enclosure volume measurements. 
The methanol mass change is calculated from the initial and final 
methanol samples, temperature and pressure according to the following 
equation:

Sec. 86.117-96  Evaporative emission enclosure calibrations.

    The calibration of evaporative emission enclosures consists of three 
parts: initial and periodic determination of enclosure background 
emissions (hydrocarbons and methanol); initial determination of 
enclosure internal volume; and periodic hydrocarbon and methanol 
retention check and calibration. Methanol measurements may be omitted if 
methanol-fueled vehicles will not be tested in the evaporative 
enclosure. Alternate calibration methods may be used if shown to yield 
equivalent or superior results, and if approved in advance by the 
Administrator; specifically, more extreme temperatures may be used for 
determining calibration without affecting the validity of test results.
    (a) Initial and periodic determination of enclosure background 
emissions. Prior to its introduction into service, annually thereafter, 
and after any repair that can affect the enclosure background emissions, 
the enclosure shall be checked to determine that it does not contain 
materials that will themselves emit hydrocarbons or methanol. When 
methanol as well as hydrocarbons are present in the evaporative 
enclosure, the HFID hydrocarbon concentration measurement includes the 
partial response of the HFID to methanol plus the hydrocarbons. 
Determination of the HFID response to methanol, Sec. 86.121, prior to 
its being placed in service is required for the determination of 
hydrocarbons. Proceed as follows:
    (1) Prepare the enclosure. (i) Variable-volume enclosures may be 
operated in either latched or unlatched volume configuration, as 
described in

[[Page 424]]

paragraph (b)(1) of this section. Ambient temperatures shall be 
maintained at 963  deg.F throughout the 4-hour period.
    (ii) Fixed-volume enclosures may be operated with inlet and outlet 
flow streams either closed or open; if inlet and outlet flow streams are 
open, the air flowing into and out of the enclosure must be monitored in 
accordance with Sec. 86.107-96(a)(1)(ii)(B). Ambient temperatures shall 
be maintained at 963  deg.F throughout the 4-hour period.
    (iii) For running loss enclosures ambient temperatures shall be 
maintained at 953  deg.F throughout the 4-hour period. For 
running loss enclosures designed with a vent for makeup air, the 
enclosure shall be operated with the vent closed.
    (2) The enclosure may be sealed and the mixing fan operated for a 
period of up to 12 hours before the 4-hour background sampling period 
begins.
    (3) Zero and span (calibrate if required) the hydrocarbon analyzer.
    (4) Prior to the background determination, purge the enclosure until 
a stable background hydrocarbon reading is obtained.
    (5) Turn on the mixing blower (if not already on).
    (6) Seal enclosure and measure background hydrocarbon concentration, 
background methanol, temperature, and barometric pressure.
    These are the initial readings CHCi, 
CCH3OHi, and PBi, Ti for the 
enclosure background determination.
    (7) Allow the enclosure to stand undisturbed for four hours.
    (8) Measure the hydrocarbon concentration on the same FID and the 
methanol level. These are the final concentrations, CHCf and 
CCH3OHf. Also measure final temperature and 
barometric pressure.
    (9) Calculate the mass change of methanol, hydrocarbons, and 
hydrocarbons plus methanol in the enclosure according to the equations 
in paragraph (d) of this section.
    (i) Diurnal enclosures. The enclosure background emissions 
(hydrocarbons plus methanol) shall not be greater than 0.05g for the 4 
hours.
    (ii) Running loss enclosures. The enclosure background emissions 
(hydrocarbons plus methanol) shall not be greater than 0.2 grams for the 
4 hours.
    (b) Initial determination of enclosure internal volume. Prior to its 
introduction into service the enclosure internal volume shall be 
determined by the following procedure:
    (1) Carefully measure the internal length, width and height of the 
enclosure, accounting for irregularities (such as braces) and calculate 
the internal volume. For variable-volume enclosures, latch the enclosure 
to a fixed volume when the enclosure is held at a constant temperature; 
this nominal volume shall be repeatable within 0.5 percent 
of the reported value.
    (2)-(3) [Reserved]
    (c) Hydrocarbon and methanol (organic gas) retention check and 
calibration. The hydrocarbon and methanol (if the enclosure is used for 
methanol-fueled vehicles) retention check provides a check upon the 
calculated volume and also measures the leak rate. The enclosure leak 
rate shall be determined prior to its introduction into service, 
following any modifications or repairs to the enclosure that may affect 
the integrity of the enclosure, and at least monthly thereafter. (The 
methanol check can be performed less frequently, provided it is 
performed at least twice annually.) If six consecutive monthly retention 
checks are successfully completed without corrective action, the 
enclosure leak rate may be determined quarterly thereafter as long as no 
corrective action is required.
    (1) An enclosure to be used for the diurnal emission test (see 
Sec. 86.133-96) shall be calibrated according to the following 
procedure. Calibration for hydrocarbon and methanol may be conducted 
simultaneously or in sequential test runs.
    (i) Zero and span (calibrate if required) the hydrocarbon analyzer.
    (ii) Purge the enclosure until a stable background hydrocarbon 
reading is obtained.
    (iii) Turn on the mixing blowers (if not already on).
    (iv) [Reserved]
    (v) Turn on the ambient temperature control system (if not already 
on) and adjust it for an initial temperature of

[[Page 425]]

96  deg.F (36  deg.C). On variable-volume enclosures, latch the 
enclosure to the appropriate volume position for the set temperature. On 
fixed-volume enclosures close the outlet and inlet flow streams.
    (vi) When the enclosure stabilizes at 963  deg.F 
(362  deg.C), seal the enclosure and measure background 
hydrocarbon concentration, background methanol, temperature, and 
barometric pressure. These are the initial readings CHCi, 
CCH3OHi, Ti, and PBi for the 
enclosure calibration.
    (vii) Inject into the enclosure 2 to 6 grams of pure methanol at a 
temperature of at least 150  deg.F (65  deg.C) and/or 2 to 6 grams of 
pure propane. The injected quantity may be measured by volume flow or by 
mass measurement. The method used to measure the quantity of methanol 
and propane shall have an accuracy of 0.2 percent of the 
measured value (less accurate methods may be used with the advance 
approval of the Administrator).
    (viii) After a minimum of 5 minutes of mixing, analyze the enclosure 
atmosphere for hydrocarbon and methanol content, also record temperature 
and pressure. These measurements are the final readings for the 
enclosure calibration as well as the initial readings for the retention 
check.
    (ix) To verify the enclosure calibration, calculate the mass of 
propane and the mass of methanol using the measurements taken in 
paragraphs (c)(1)(vi) and (viii) of this section. See paragraph (d) of 
this section. This quantity must be within 2 percent of that 
measured in paragraph (c)(1)(vii) of this section. (For 1991-1995 
calendar years, the difference may exceed 2 percent for 
methanol, provided it does not exceed 6 percent.)
    (x) For variable-volume enclosures, unlatch the enclosure from the 
nominal volume configuration. For fixed-volume enclosures, open the 
outlet and inlet flow streams.
    (xi) Start cycling the ambient temperature from 96  deg.F to 72 
deg.F and back to 96  deg.F over a 24-hour period, according to the 
profile specified in Sec. 86.133-96 and appendix II of this part, within 
15 minutes of sealing the enclosure.
    (xii) At the completion of the 24-hour cycling period, analyze the 
enclosure atmosphere for hydrocarbon and methanol content; determine the 
net withdrawn methanol (in the case of diurnal emission testing with 
fixed volume enclosures); record temperature and barometric pressure. 
These are the final readings for the hydrocarbon and methanol retention 
check. The final hydrocarbon and methanol mass, calculated in paragraph 
(d) of this section, shall be within three percent of that determined in 
paragraph (c)(1)(viii) of this section. (For 1991-1995 calendar years, 
the difference may exceed 3 percent for methanol, provided 
it does not exceed 6 percent.)
    (2) An enclosure to be used for the running loss test (see 
Sec. 86.134-96) shall meet the calibration and retention requirements of 
Sec. 86.117-90(c).
    (3) Enclosures calibrated according to the procedures specified in 
either paragraph (c)(1) or (c)(2) of this section may be used for hot 
soak testing (see Sec. 86.138).
    (d) Calculations. (1) The calculation of net methanol and 
hydrocarbon mass change is used to determine enclosure background and 
leak rate. It is also used to check the enclosure volume measurements. 
The methanol mass change is calculated from the initial and final 
methanol samples, the net withdrawn methanol (in the case of diurnal 
emission testing with fixed-volume enclosures), and initial and final 
temperature and pressure according to the following equation:

with FID response to methanol, the net withdrawn hydrocarbon and 
methanol (in the case of diurnal emission testing with fixed-volume 
enclosures), and initial and final temperature and pressure according to 
the following equation:

may be used:

    (e) Calibration of equipment for point-source testing of running 
losses. For the point-source method, the running loss fuel vapor 
sampling system shall be calibrated as a CVS system, as specified in 
Sec. 86.119, with the additional specification that the vapor sampling 
system verification be conducted as follows:
    (1) The following ``gravimetric'' technique can be used to verify 
that the vapor sampling system and analytical instruments can accurately 
measure a mass of gas that has been injected into the system. If the 
vapor sampling system will be used only in the testing of petroleum-
fueled engines, the system verification may be performed using propane. 
If the vapor sampling system will be used with methanol-fueled vehicles 
as well as petroleum-fueled vehicles, the system verification 
performance check must include a methanol check in addition to the 
propane check. (Verification can also be accomplished by constant flow 
metering using critical flow orifice devices.)
    (i) Obtain a small cylinder that has been charged with pure propane 
gas. Obtain another small cylinder that has been charged with pure 
methanol if the system will be used for methanol-fueled vehicle testing. 
Since this cylinder will be heated to 150-155  deg.F, care must be taken 
to ensure that the liquid volume of methanol placed in the cylinder does 
not exceed approximately one-half of the total volume of the cylinder.
    (ii) Determine a reference cylinder weight to the nearest 0.01 
grams.
    (iii) Operate the vapor sampling system in the normal manner and 
release a known quantity of pure propane into the most frequently used 
fuel vapor collector during the sampling period (approximately 5 
minutes).
    (iv) Continue to operate the vapor sampling system in the normal 
manner and release a known quantity of pure methanol into the system 
during the sampling period (approximately 5 minutes).
    (v) The calculations of Sec. 86.144 are performed in the normal way, 
except in the case of propane. The density of propane (17.30 g/
ft3/carbon atom (0.6109 kg/m3/carbon atom)) is 
used in place of the density of exhaust hydrocarbons. In the case of 
methanol, the density of 37.71 g/ft3 (1.332 kg/m3) 
is used.
    (vi) The gravimetric mass is subtracted from the vapor sampling 
system measured mass and then divided by the gravimetric mass to 
determine the percent accuracy of the system.
    (vii) The cause for any discrepancy greater than 2 
percent must be found and corrected.
    (2) This procedure shall be conducted in the point-source running 
loss test environment with the collector installed in a vehicle in the 
normal test configuration. The fuel of the test vehicle shall either be 
diesel, or it shall be kept under 100  deg.F (38  deg.C). Two to six 
grams of pure propane and two to six grams of pure methanol shall be 
injected into the collector while the vehicle is operated over one Urban 
Dynamometer Driving Schedule (UDDS), as described in Sec. 86.115 and 
appendix I of this part. The propane and methanol injections shall be 
conducted at the ambient temperature of 955  deg.F 
(353  deg.C).

Sec. 86.118-00  Dynamometer calibrations.

    (a) The dynamometer shall be calibrated at least once each month or 
performance verified at least once each week and then calibrated as 
required.
    (b) For large single roll electric dynamometers or equivalent 
dynamometer configurations, the dynamometer adjustment settings for each 
vehicle's emission test sequence shall be verified by comparing the 
force imposed during dynamometer operation with actual road load force.
[61 FR 54891, Oct. 22, 1996]



Sec. 86.118-78  Dynamometer calibration.

    (a) The dynamometer shall be calibrated at least once each month or 
performance verified at least once each week and then calibrated as 
required. The calibration shall consist of the manufacturer's 
recommended calibration procedure plus a determination of the 
dynamometer frictional power absorption at 50.0 mph (80.5 km/h). One 
method for determining dynamometer frictional power absorption at 50.0 
mph

[[Page 428]]

(80.5 km/h) is described below, other methods may be used if shown to 
yield equivalent results. The measured absorbed road power includes the 
dynamometer friction as well as the power absorbed by the power 
absorption unit. The dynamometer is driven above the test speed range. 
The device used to drive the dynamometer is then disengaged from the 
dynamometer and the roll(s) is (are) allowed to coast down. The kinetic 
energy of the system is dissipated by the dynamometer. This method 
neglects the variations in roll bearing friction due to the drive axle 
weight of the vehicle. The inertia of the free (rear) roll may be 
neglected in the case of dynamometers with paired rolls.
    (1) Devise a method to determine the speed of the drive roll if it 
is not already measured. A fifth wheel, revolution pickup, or other 
suitable means may be used.
    (2) Place a vehicle on the dynamometer or devise another method of 
driving the dynamometer.
    (3) Engage the inertial flywheel or other inertial simulation system 
for the most common vehicle mass category for which the dynamometer is 
used. In addition other vehicle mass categories may be calibrated, if 
desired.
    (4) Drive the dynamometer up to 50.0 mph (80.5 km/h).
    (5) Record indicated road power.
    (6) Drive the dynamometer up to 60.0 mph (96.9 km/h).
    (7) Disengage the device used to drive the dynamometer.
    (8) Record the time for the dynamometer drive roll to coastdown from 
55.0 mph (88.5 km/h) to 45 mph (72.4 km/h).
    (9) Adjust the power absorption unit to a different level.
    (10) Repeat steps (4) to (9) above sufficient times to cover the 
range of road power used.
    (11) Calculate absorbed road power (HPd). See paragraph 
(c) of this section.
    (12) Plot indicated road load power at 50 mph (80.5 km/h) versus 
road load power at 50 mph (80.5 km/h) as shown in Figure B78-5.

[[Page 429]]

[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR06OC93.156


    (b) The performance check consists of conducting a dynamometer 
coastdown at one or more inertia-horsepower settings and comparing the 
coastdown time to that recorded during the last calibration. If the 
coastdown times differ by more than 1 s, a new calibration is required.
    (c) Calculations. The road load power actually absorbed by the 
dynamometer is calculated from the following equation:

HPd = (1/2) (W/32.2) (V21 - 
V22)/(550t)

where:
HPd = Power, horsepower (kilowatts)
W = Equivalent inertia, 1b (kg)
V1 = Initial Velocity, ft/s (m/s) (55 mph = 88.5 km/h = 80.67 
          ft/s = 24.58 m/s)
V2 = Final Velocity, ft/s (m/s) (45 mph = 72.4 km/h = 66 ft/s 
          = 20.11 m/s)
t = elapsed time for rolls to coast from 55 mph to 45 mph (88.5 to 72.4 
          km/h)

    (Expressions in parentheses are for SI units.) When the coastdown is 
from 55 to 45 mph (88.5 to 72.4 km/h) the above equation reduces to:

HPd = 0.06073 (W/t)


for SI units,

HPd = 0.09984 (W/t)

Sec. 86.119-90  CVS calibration.

    The CVS is calibrated using an accurate flowmeter and restrictor 
valve. Measurements of various parameters are made and related to flow 
through the unit. Procedures used by EPA for both PDP and CFV are 
outlined below. Other procedures yielding equivalent results may be used 
if approved in advance by the Administrator. After the calibration curve 
has been obtained,

[[Page 430]]

verification of the entire system can be performed by injecting a known 
mass of gas into the system and comparing the mass indicated by the 
system to the true mass injected. An indicated error does not 
necessarily mean that the calibration is wrong, since other factors can 
influence the accuracy of the system, e.g., analyzer calibration. A 
verification procedure is found in paragraph (c) of this section.
    (a) PDP calibrations. (1) The following calibration procedure 
outlines the equipment, the test configuration, and the various 
parameters which must be measured to establish the flow rate of the CVS 
pump. All the parameters related to the pump are simultaneously measured 
with the parameters related to a flowmeter which is connected in series 
with the pump. The calculated flow rate ft\3\/min (at pump inlet 
absolute pressure and temperature) can then be plotted versus a 
correlation function which is the value on a specific combination of 
pump parameters. The linear equation which relates the pump flow and the 
correlation function is then determined. In the event that a CVS has a 
multiple speed drive, a calibration for each range used must be 
performed.
    (2) This calibration procedure is based on the measurement of the 
absolute values of the pump and flowmeter parameters that relate the 
flow rate at each point. Three conditions must be maintained to assure 
the accuracy and integrity of the calibration curve. First, the pump 
pressures should be measured at taps on the pump rather than at the 
external piping on the pump inlet and outlet. Pressure taps that are 
mounted at the top center and bottom center of the pump drive headplate 
are exposed to the actual pump cavity pressures, and therefore reflect 
the absolute pressure differentials. Secondly, temperature stability 
must be maintained during the calibration. The laminar flowmeter is 
sensitive to inlet temperature oscillations which cause the data points 
to be scattered. Gradual changes (2  deg.F (1.1  deg.C)) in 
temperature are acceptable as long as they occur over a period of 
several minutes. Finally, all connections between the flowmeter and the 
CVS pump must be absolutely void of any leakage.
    (3) During an exhaust emission test the measurement of these same 
pump parameters enables the user to calculate the flow rate from the 
calibration equation.
    (4) Connect a system as shown in Figure B90-8. Although particular 
types of equipment are shown, other configurations that yield equivalent 
results may be used if approved in advance by the Administrator. For the 
system indicated, the following data with given accuracy are required:

    (5) After the system has been connected as shown in Figure B90-8, 
set the variable restrictor in the wide open position and run the CVS 
pump for 20 minutes. Record the calibration data.
    (6) Reset the restrictor valve to a more restricted condition in an 
increment of pump inlet depression (about 4 in. H2O (1.0 kPa) 
that will yield a minimum of six data points for the total calibration. 
Allow the system to stabilize for 3 minutes and repeat the data 
acquisition.
    (7) Data analysis:
    (i) The air flow rate, Qs, at each test point is 
calculated in standard cubic feet per minute from the flowmeter data 
using the manufacturer's prescribed method.
    (ii) The air flow rate is then converted to pump flow, 
Vo, in cubic feet per revolution at absolute pump inlet 
temperature and pressure:


[[Page 432]]


Vo = (Qs/n)  x  (Tp/528)  x  (29.92/
Pp)

Where:
(A) Vo = Pump flow ft\3\/rev (m\3\/rev) at Tp, 
Pp.
(B) Qs = Meter air flow rate in standard cubic feet per 
minute, standard conditions are 68  deg.F, 29.92 in. Hg (20  deg.C, 
101.3 kPa).
(C) n = Pump speed in revolutions per minute.
(D)(1) Tp = Pump inlet temperature,  deg.R( deg.K) = PTI + 
460.
    (2) For SI units, Tp = PTI + 273.
(E)(l) Pp = Absolute pump inlet pressure, in. Hg. (kPa) = 
PB - PPI (SP.GR./13.57).
(2) For SI units, Pp = PB - PPI.

Where:
(F) PB = barometric pressure, in. Hg. (kPa).
(G) PPI = Pump inlet depression, in. fluid (kPa).
(H) SP.GR. = Specific gravity of manometer fluid relative to water.
    (iii) The correlation function at each test point is then calculated 
from the calibration data:
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR06OC93.021


Where:
(A) Xo = correlation function.
(B)  Pp = the pressure differential from pump inlet 
to pump outlet, in. Hg (kPa) = Pe - Pp.
(C)(1) Pe = Absolute pump outlet pressure, in Hg, (kPa) = 
PB + PPO (SP.GR./13.57).

(2) For SI units, Pe = PB + PPO.

Where:
(D) PPO = Pressure head at pump outlet, in. fluid (kPa).
(iv) A linear least squares fit is performed to generate the calibration 
equations which have the forms:
Vo = Do - M(Xo)
n = A - B( Pp)

Do, M, A, and B are the slope-intercept constants describing 
lines.
    (8) A CVS system that has multiple speeds should be calibrated on 
each speed used. The calibration curves generated for the ranges will be 
approximately parallel and the intercept values, Do, will 
increase as the pump flow range decreases.
    (9) If the calibration has been performed carefully, the calculated 
values from the equation will be within 0.50 percent of the 
measured value of Vo. Values of M will vary from one pump to 
another, but values of Do for pumps of the same make, model, 
and range should agree within 3 percent of each other. 
Particulate influx from use will cause the pump slip to decrease as 
reflected by lower values for M. Calibrations should be performed at 
pump start-up and after major maintenance to assure the stability of the 
pump slip rate. Analysis of mass injection data will also reflect pump 
slip stability.
    (b) CFV calibration. (1) Calibration of the CFV is based upon the 
flow equation for a critical venturi. Gas flow is a function of inlet 
pressure and temperature:
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR06OC93.022


Where:

(i) Qs=Flow.
(ii) Kv=Calibration coefficient.
(iii) P=Absolute pressure.
(iv) T=Absolute temperature.

The calibration procedure described below establishes the value of the 
calibration coefficient at measured values of pressure, temperature and 
air flow.
    (2) The manufacturer's recommended procedure shall be followed for 
calibrating electronic portions of the CFV.
    (3) Measurements necessary for flow calibration are as follows:

    (4) Set up equipment as shown in Figure B90-9 and check for leaks. 
Any leaks between the flow measuring device and the critical flow 
venturi will seriously affect the accuracy of the calibration.

    (5) Set the variable flow restrictor to the open position, start the 
blower, and allow the system to stabilize. Record data from all 
instruments.
    (6) Vary the flow restrictor and make at least 8 readings across the 
critical flow range of the venturi.
    (7) Data analysis: The data recorded during the calibration are to 
be used in the following calculations:

[[Page 435]]

    (i) The air flow rate, Qs, at each test point is 
calculated in standard cubic feet per minute from the flow meter data 
using the manufacturer's prescribed method.
    (ii) Calculate values of the calibration coefficient for each test 
point:
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR06OC93.023


Where:
(A) Qs = Flow rate in standard cubic feet per minute, 
standard conditions are 68  deg.F 29.92 in. Hg (20  deg.C, 101.3 kPa).
(B) Tv = Temperature at venturi inlet,  deg.R( deg.K).
(C)(1) Pv = Pressure at venturi inlet, mm Hg (kPa) = 
PB - PPI (SP.GR./13.57).
(2) For SI units, Pv = PB - PPI.

Where:
(D) PPI = Venturi inlet pressure depression, in. fluid (kPa).
(E) SP.GR. = Specific gravity of manometer fluid, relative to water.
    (iii) Plot Kv as a function of venturi inlet pressure. 
For sonic flow Kv will have a relatively constant value. As 
pressure decreases (vacuum increases), the venturi becomes unchoked and 
Kv decreases. See Figure B90-10.

[[Page 436]]

[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR06OC93.200


    (iv) For a minimum of 8 points in the critical region calculate an 
average Kv and the standard deviation.
    (v) If the standard deviation exceeds 0.3 percent of the average 
Kv take corrective action.
    (c) CVS System Verification. The following ``gravimetric'' technique 
can be used to verify that the CVS and analytical instruments can 
accurately measure a mass of gas that has been injected into the system. 
If the CVS and analytical system will be used only in the testing of 
petroleum-fueled engines, the system verification may be

[[Page 437]]

performed using either propane or carbon monoxide. If the CVS and 
analytical system will be used with methanol-fueled vehicles as well as 
petroleum-fueled vehicles, system verification performance check must 
include a methanol check in addition to either the propane or carbon 
monoxide check. (Verification can also be accomplished by constant flow 
metering using critical flow orifice devices.)
    (1) Obtain a small cylinder that has been charged with pure propane 
or carbon monoxide gas (CAUTION--carbon monoxide is poisonous).
    (2) Determine a reference cylinder weight to the nearest 0.01 grams.
    (3) Operate the CVS in the normal manner and release a quantity of 
pure propane or carbon monoxide into the system during the sampling 
period (approximately 5 minutes).
    (4) Following completion of step (3) in this paragraph (c) (if 
methanol injection is required), continue to operate the CVS in the 
normal manner and release a known quantity of pure methanol (in gaseous 
form) into the system during the sampling period (approximately five 
minutes). This step does not need to be performed with each 
verification, provided that it is performed at least twice annually.
    (5) The calculations of Sec. 86.144 are performed in the normal way, 
except in the case of propane. The density of propane (17.30 g/ft\3\/
carbon atom (0.6109 kg/m\3\/carbon atom)) is used in place of the 
density of exhaust hydrocarbons. In the case of carbon monoxide, the 
density of 32.97 g/ft\3\ (1.164 kg/m\3\) is used. In the case of 
methanol, the density of 37.71 g/ft\3\ (1.332 kg/m\3\) is used.
    (6) The gravimetric mass is subtracted from the CVS measured mass 
and then divided by the gravimetric mass to determine the percent 
accuracy of the system.
    (7) The cause for any discrepancy greater than 2 percent 
must be found and corrected. (For 1991-1995 calendar years, 
discrepancies greater than 2 percent are allowed for the 
methanol test, provided that they do not exceed 8 percent 
for 1991 testing or 6 percent for 1992-1995 testing.)

Sec. 86.120-82  Gas meter or flow instrumentation calibration, particulate measurement.

    Sampling for particulate emissions requires the use of gas meters or 
flow instrumentation to measure flow through the particulate filters. 
The meters or instrumentation shall receive initial and periodic 
calibrations as follows:
    (a) Install a standard air flow measurement device upstream of the 
gas meter or instrument being calibrated. This standard device shall 
measure air flow at standard conditions with an accuracy of 
plus-minus1 percent. Standard conditions are defined as 68 
deg.F (20  deg.C) and 29.92 in. Hg (101.3 kPa). A critical flow orifice, 
a bellmouth, or a laminar flow element is recommended as the standard 
device.
    (b) Flow air through the calibration system at the sample flow rate 
used for particulate testing and at the backpressure which occurs during 
the sample test.
    (c) When the temperature and pressure in the system have stabilized, 
measure the gas meter or instrument indicated volume over a time period 
of at least 5 minutes and until a flow volume of at least 
plus-minus1 percent accuracy can be determined by the 
standard device. Record the stabilized air temperature and pressure 
upstream of the gas meter or instrument being calibrated and as required 
for the standard device.
    (d) Calculate air flow at standard conditions as measured by both 
the standard device and the gas meter or instrument being calibrated.
    (e) Repeat the procedures of paragraphs (b) through (d) of this 
section using flow rates which are 10 percent above the nominal sampling 
flow rate and 10 percent below the nominal sampling flow rate.
    (f) If the air flow at standard conditions measured by the gas meter 
or instrument being calibrated differs by more than 
plus-minus1 percent from the standard measurement at any of 
the three measured flow rates, then a correction shall be made by either 
of the following two methods:
    (1) Mechanically adjust the gas meter or instrument so that it 
agrees within 1 percent of the standard measurement at the three 
specified flow rates, or

[[Page 438]]

    (2) Develop a continuous best fit calibration curve for the gas 
meter (as a function of the standard device flow measurement) from the 
three calibration points that represents the data to within 1 percent at 
all points to determine corrected flow.
    (g) Other systems. A bell prover may be used to calibrate the gas 
meter if the procedure outlined in ANSI B109.1-1973 is used. Prior 
approval by the Administrator is not required to use the bell prover.

Sec. 86.120-94  Gas meter or flow instrumentation calibration; particulate, methanol and formaldehyde measurement.

    (a) Sampling for particulate, methanol and formaldehyde emissions 
requires the use of gas meters or flow instrumentation to determine flow 
through the particulate filters, methanol impingers and formaldehyde 
impingers. These instruments shall receive initial and periodic 
calibrations as follows:
    (1)(i) Install a calibration device in series with the instrument. A 
critical flow orifice, a bellmouth nozzle, a laminar flow element or an 
NBS traceable flow calibration device is required as the standard 
device.
    (ii) The flow system should be checked for leaks between the 
calibration and sampling meters, including any pumps that may be part of 
the system, using good engineering practice.
    (2) Flow air through the calibration system at the sample flow rate 
used for particulate, methanol, and formaldehyde testing and at the 
backpressure which occurs during the test.
    (3) When the temperature and pressure in the system have stabilized, 
measure the indicated gas volume over a time period of at least five 
minutes or until a gas volume of at least 1 percent accuracy 
can be determined by the standard device. Record the stabilized air 
temperature and pressure upstream of the instrument and as required for 
the standard device.
    (4) Calculate air flow at standard conditions as measured by both 
the standard device and the instrument(s). (Standard conditions are 
defined as 68  deg.F (20  deg.C) and 29.92 in Hg (101.3 kPa).)
    (5) Repeat the procedures of paragraphs (a)(2) through (4) of this 
section using at least two flow rates which bracket the typical 
operating range.
    (6) If the air flow at standard conditions measured by the 
instrument differs by 1.0 percent of the maximum operating 
range or 2.0 percent of the point (whichever is smaller), 
then a correction shall be made by either of the following two methods:
    (i) Mechanically adjust the instrument so that it agrees with the 
calibration measurement at the specified flow rates using the criteria 
of paragraph (a)(6) of this section; or
    (ii) Develop a continuous best fit calibration curve for the 
instrument (as a function of the calibration device flow measurement) 
from the calibration points to determine corrected flow. The points on 
the calibration curve relative to the calibration device measurements 
must be within 1.0 percent of the maximum operating range of 
2.0 percent of the point (whichever is smaller).
    (b) Other systems. A bell prover may be used to calibrate the 
instrument if the procedure outlined in ANSI B109.1-1973 is used. Prior 
approval by the Administrator is not required to use the bell prover.

Sec. 86.121-82  Hydrocarbon analyzer calibration.

    The hydrocarbon analyzers shall receive the following initial and 
periodic calibration. The HFID shall be operated at a temperature of 
37510  deg.F (1916  deg.C).
    (a) Initial and periodic optimization of FID and HFID response. 
Prior to its introduction into service and at least annually thereafter, 
the FID and HFID hydrocarbon analyzers shall be adjusted for optimum 
hydrocarbon response. Alternate methods yielding equivalent results may 
be used, if approved in advance by the Administrator.
    (1) Follow the manufacturer's instructions or good engineering 
practice for instrument startup and basic operating adjustment using the 
appropriate fuel and zero-grade air.

[[Page 439]]

    (2) Optimize on the most common operating range. Introduce into the 
analyzer a propane in air mixture with a propane concentration equal to 
approximately 90 percent of the most common operating range.
    (3) One of the following is required for FID or HFID optimization:
    (i) For all FIDs and HFIDs, the procedures specified by the 
applicable FID or HFID manufacturer.
    (ii) For Beckman 400 FIDs only, implementation of the 
recommendations outlined in Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) paper 
No. 770141, ``Optimization of Flame Ionization Detector for 
Determination of Hydrocarbons in Diluted Automobile Exhaust;'' author, 
Glenn D. Reschke.
    (iii) For HFIDs only, the following peaking procedure. (A) With the 
fuel and air flow rates set at the manufacturer's recommendations, 
determine the analyzer response from the difference between the span-gas 
response and the zero gas response. Incrementally adjust the fuel flow 
above and below the manufacturer's specification. Record the span and 
zero response at these fuel flows. A plot of the difference between the 
span and zero response versus the fuel flow will be similar to the one 
shown in Fig. B87-11. Adjust the fuel-flow rate to the highest setting 
that produces the maximum analyzer response.
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR06OC93.158

    (B) To determine the optimum air flow, use the fuel flow setting 
determined in paragraph (a)(3)(iii)(A) of this section and vary air 
flow.
    (iv) Alternative procedures may be used if approved in advance by 
the Administrator.
    (4) After the optimum flow rates have been determined, record them 
for future reference.
    (b) Initial and periodic calibration. Prior to its introduction into 
service and monthly thereafter the FID or HFID hydrocarbon analyzers 
shall be calibrated on all normally used instrument ranges. Use the same 
flow rate as when analyzing samples.
    (1) Adjust analyzer to optimize performance.
    (2) Zero the hydrocarbon analyzer with zero-grade air.
    (3) Calibrate on each normally used operating range with propane in 
air calibration gases having nominal concentrations of 15, 30, 45, 60, 
75, and 90 percent of that range. For each range calibrated, if the 
deviation from a least squares best-fit straight line is 2 percent or 
less of the value at each data point, concentration values may be 
calculated by use of a single calibration factor for that range. If the 
deviation exceeds 2 percent at any point, the best-fit non-linear 
equation which represents the data to within 2 percent of each test 
point shall be used to determine concentration.

Sec. 86.121-90  Hydrocarbon analyzer calibration.

    The hydrocarbon analyzers shall receive the following initial and 
periodic calibration. The HFID used with petroleum-fueled diesel 
vehicles shall be operated at a temperature of 375  deg.F10 
deg.F (191  deg.6  deg.C). The HFID used with methanol-
fueled vehicles shall be operated at 235  deg.15  deg.F 
(1138  deg.C).
    (a) Initial and periodic optimization of detector response. Prior to 
its introduction into service and at least annually thereafter, the FID 
and HFID hydrocarbon analyzers shall be adjusted for optimum hydrocarbon 
response. Alternate methods yielding equivalent results may be used, if 
approved in advance by the Administrator.
    (1) Follow the manufacturer's instructions or good engineering 
practice for instrument startup and basic operating adjustment using the 
appropriate FID fuel and zero-grade air.

[[Page 440]]

    (2) Optimize on the most common operating range. Introduce into the 
analyzer a propane (methane as appropriate) in air mixture (methanol in 
air mixture for methanol-fueled vehicles when optional methanol 
calibrated HFID procedure is used during the 1994 model year) with a 
propane (or methane or methanol as appropriate) concentration equal to 
approximately 90 percent of the most common operating range.
    (3) One of the following is required for FID or HFID optimization:
    (i) For all FIDs and HFIDs, the procedures specified by the 
applicable FID or HFID manufacturer.
    (ii) For Beckman 400 FIDs only, implementation of the 
recommendations outlined in Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) paper 
No. 770141, ``Optimization of Flame Ionization Detector for 
Determination of Hydrocarbons in Diluted Automobile Exhaust''; author, 
Glenn D. Reschke.
    (iii) For HFIDs only, the following peaking procedure. (A) With the 
fuel and air flow rates set in the manufacturer's recommendations, 
determine the analyzer response from the difference between the span-gas 
response and the zero gas response. Incrementally adjust the fuel flow 
above and below the manufacturer's specification. Record the span and 
zero response at these fuel flows. A plot of the difference between the 
span and zero response versus the fuel flow will be similar to the one 
shown in Fig. B87-11. Adjust the fuel-flow rate to the highest setting 
that produces the maximum analyzer response.
    (B) To determine the optimum air flow, use the fuel flow setting 
determined in paragraph (a)(3)(iii)(A) of this section and vary air 
flow.
    (iv) Alternative procedures may be used if approved in advance by 
the Administrator.
    (4) To determine the optimum air flow, use the FID fuel flow setting 
determined above and vary air flow.
    (5) After the optimum flow rates have been determined, record them 
for future reference.
    (b) Initial and periodic calibration. Prior to its introduction into 
service and monthly thereafter the FID or HFID hydrocarbon analyzers 
shall be calibrated on all normally used instrument ranges, and, if 
testing methanol vehicles under the procedure described in Sec. 86.107-
90(a)(2)(ii) or Sec. 86.110-90(a)(4), the methanol response factor shall 
be determined (paragraph (c) of this section). Use the same flow rate as 
when analyzing sample.
    (1) Adjust analyzer to optimize performance.
    (2) Zero the hydrocarbon analyzer with zero-grade air.
    (3) Calibrate on each normally used operating range with propane in 
air calibration gases (either methanol or methane in air as appropriate) 
having nominal concentrations of 15, 30, 45, 60, 75 and 90 percent of 
that range. For each range calibrated, if the deviation from a least 
squares best-fit straight line is two percent or less of the value at 
each data point, concentration values may be calculated by use of a 
single calibration factor for that range. If the deviation exceeds two 
percent at any point, the best-fit non-linear equation which represents 
the data to within two percent of each test point shall be used to 
determine concentration.
    (c) FID response factor to methanol. When the FID analyzer is to be 
used for the analysis of hydrocarbon samples containing methanol, the 
methanol response factor of the analyzer shall be established. The 
methanol response factor shall be determined at several concentrations 
in the range of concentrations in the exhaust sample, using either bag 
samples or gas bottles meeting the requirements of Sec. 86.114.
    (1) The bag sample of methanol for analysis in the FID, if used, 
shall be prepared using the apparatus shown in Figure B90-11. A known 
volume of methanol is injected, using a microliter syringe, into the 
heated mixing zone (250  deg.F (121  deg.C)) of the apparatus. The 
methanol is vaporized and swept into the sample bag with a known volume 
of zero grade air measured by a gas flow meter meeting the performance 
requirements of Sec. 86.120.

    (2) The bag sample is analyzed using the FID.

(vii) Air volume = Volume of zero grade air, m\3\.

    (d) FID response factor to methane. When the FID analyzer is to be 
used for the analysis of natural gas-fueled vehicle hydrocarbon samples, 
the methane response factor of the analyzer shall be established. To 
determine the total hydrocarbon FID response to methane, known methane 
in air concentrations traceable to the National Institute of Standards 
and Technology (NIST) shall be analyzed by the FID. Several methane 
concentrations shall be analyzed by the FID in the range of 
concentrations in the exhaust sample. The total hydrocarbon FID response 
to methane is calculated as follows:
rCH4=FIDppm/SAMppm

Where:
(1) rCH4=FID response factor to methane.

Sec. 86.122-78  Carbon monoxide analyzer calibration.

    The NDIR carbon monoxide analyzer shall receive the following 
initial and periodic calibrations:
    (a) Initial and periodic interference check. Prior to its 
introduction into service and annually thereafter the NDIR carbon 
monoxide analyzer shall be checked for response to water vapor and 
CO2:
    (1) Follow the manufacturer's instructions for instrument 
startup and operation. Adjust the analyzer to optimize performance on 
the most sensitive range to be used.
    (2) Zero the carbon monoxide analyzer with either zero-grade air or 
zero-grade nitrogen.
    (3) Bubble a mixture of 3 percent CO2 in N2 
through water at room temperature and record analyzer response.
    (4) An analyzer response of more than 1 percent of full scale for 
ranges above 300 ppm full scale or of more than 3 ppm on ranges below 
300 ppm full scale will require corrective action. (Use of conditioning 
columns is one form of corrective action which may be taken.)
    (b) Initial and periodic calibration. Prior to its introduction into 
service and monthly thereafter the NDIR carbon monoxide analyzer shall 
be calibrated.
    (1) Adjust the analyzer to optimize performance.
    (2) Zero the carbon monoxide analyzer with either zero-grade air or 
zero-grade nitrogen.
    (3) Calibrate on each normally used operating range with carbon 
monoxide in N2 calibration gases having nominal 
concentrations of 15, 30, 45, 60, 75, and 90 percent of that range. 
Additional calibration points may be generated. For each range 
calibrated, if the deviation from a least-squares best-fit straight line 
is 2 percent or less of the value at each data point, concentration 
values may be calculated by use of a single calibration factor for that 
range. If the deviation exceeds 2 percent at any point, the best-fit 
non-linear equation which represents the data to within 2 percent of 
each test point shall be used to determine concentration.



Sec. 86.123-78  Oxides of nitrogen analyzer calibration.

    The chemiluminescent oxides of nitrogen analyzer shall receive the 
following initial and periodic calibration.
    (a) Prior to introduction into service and at least monthly 
thereafter the chemiluminescent oxides of nitrogen analyzer must be 
checked for NO2 to NO converter efficiency. Figure B78-9 is a 
reference for paragraphs (a) (1) through (11) of this section.
    (1) Follow the manufacturer's instructions for instrument startup 
and

[[Page 443]]

operation. Adjust the analyzer to optimize performance.
    (2) Zero the oxides of nitrogen analyzer with zero-grade air or 
zero-grade nitrogen.
    (3) Connect the outlet of the NOX generator to the sample 
inlet of the oxides of nitrogen analyzer which has been set to the most 
common operating range.
    (4) Introduce into the NOX generator analyzer-system an 
NO in nitrogen (N2) mixture with an NO concentration equal to 
approximately 80 percent of the most common operating range. The 
NO2 content of the gas mixture shall be less than 5 percent 
of the NO concentration.
    (5) With the oxides of nitrogen analyzer in the NO mode, record the 
concentration of NO indicated by the analyzer.
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR06OC93.160


[[Page 444]]


    (6) Turn on the NOX generator O2 (or air) 
supply and adjust the O2 (or air) flow rate so that the NO 
indicated by the analyzer is about 10 percent less than indicated in 
step (5). Record the concentration of NO in this NO + O2 
mixture.
    (7) Switch the NOX generator to the generation mode and 
adjust the generation rate so that the NO measured on the analyzer is 20 
percent of that measured in step (5). There must be at least 10 percent 
unreacted NO at this point. Record the concentration of residual NO.
    (8) Switch the oxides of nitrogen analyzer to the NOX 
mode and measure total NOX. Record this value.
    (9) Switch off the NOX generation but maintain gas flow 
through the system. The oxides of nitrogen analyzer will indicate the 
NOX in the NO + O2 mixture. Record this value.
    (10) Turn off the NOX generator O2 (or air) 
supply. The analyzer will now indicate the NOX in the 
original NO in N2 mixture. This value should be no more than 
5 percent above the value indicated in step (4).
    (11) Calculate the efficiency of the NOX converted by 
substituting the concentrations obtained into the following equation:

Percent Efficiency = [1 + (a-b)/(c-d)]  x  100

where:
a = concentration obtained in step (8).
b = concentration obtained in step (9).
c = concentration obtained in step (6).
d = concentration obtained in step (7).


If converter efficiency is not greater than 90 percent corrective action 
will be required.
    (b) Initial and periodic calibration. Prior to its introduction into 
service and monthly thereafter the chemiluminescent oxides of nitrogen 
analyzer shall be calibrated on all normally used instrument ranges. Use 
the same flow rate as when analyzing samples. Proceed as follows:
    (1) Adjust analyzer to optimize performance.
    (2) Zero the oxides of nitrogen analyzer with zero-grade air or 
zero-grade nitrogen.
    (3) Calibrate on each normally used operating range with NO in N2 
calibration gases having nominal concentrations of 15, 30, 45, 60, 75, 
and 90 percent of that range. For each range calibrated, if the 
deviation from a least-squares best-fit straight line is 2 percent or 
less of the value at each data point, concentration values may be 
calculated by use of a single calibration factor for that range. If the 
deviation exceeds 2 percent at any point, the best-fit non-linear 
equation which represents the data to within 2 percent of each test 
point shall be used to determine concentration.
    (c) When testing methanol-fueled vehicles, it may be necessary to 
clean the analyzer frequently to prevent interference with 
NOX measurements (see EPA/600/S3-88/040).

Sec. 86.124-78  Carbon dioxide analyzer calibration.

    Prior to its introduction into service and monthly thereafter the 
NDIR carbon dioxide analyzer shall be calibrated:
    (a) Follow the manufacturer's instructions for instrument startup 
and operation. Adjust the analyzer to optimize performance.
    (b) Zero the carbon dioxide analyzer with either zero-grade air or 
zero-grade nitrogen.
    (c) Calibrate on each normally used operating range with carbon 
dioxide in N2 calibration gases with nominal concentrations 
of 15, 30, 45, 60, 75, and 90 percent of that range. Additional 
calibration points may be generated. For each range calibrated, if the 
deviation from a least-squares best-fit straight line is 2 percent or 
less of the value at each data point, concentration values may be 
calculated by use of a single calibration factor for that range. If the 
deviation exceeds 2 percent at any point, the best-fit non-linear 
equation which represents the data to within 2 percent of each test 
point shall be used to determine concentration.

    Prior to introduction into service and monthly thereafter, the 
methane analyzer shall be calibrated:

[[Page 445]]

    (a) Follow the manufacturer's instructions for instrument startup 
and operation. Adjust the analyzer to optimize performance.
    (b) Zero the methane analyzer with zero-grade air.
    (c) Calibrate on each normally used operating range with 
CH4 in air with nominal concentrations of 15, 30, 45, 60, 75, 
and 90 percent of that range. Additional calibration points may be 
generated. For each range calibrated, if the deviation from a least-
squares best-fit straight line is 2 percent or less of the value at each 
data point, concentration values may be calculated by use of a single 
calibration factor for that range. If the deviation exceeds 2 percent at 
any point, the best-fit non-linear equation which represents the data to 
within 2 percent of each test point shall be used to determine 
concentration.

Sec. 86.126-90  Calibration of other equipment.

    Other test equipment used for testing shall be calibrated as often 
as required by the manufacturer or as necessary according to good 
practice. Specific equipment requiring calibration are the gas 
chromatograph and flame ionization detector used in measuring methanol 
and the high pressure liquid chromatograph (HPLC) and ultraviolet 
detector for measuring formaldehyde.

Sec. 86.127-00  Test procedures; overview.

    Applicability. The procedures described in this and subsequent 
sections are used to determine the conformity of vehicles with the 
standards set forth in subpart A of this part for light-duty vehicles 
and light-duty trucks. Except where noted, the procedures of paragraphs 
(a) through (b) of this section, Sec. 86.127-96 (c) and (d), and the 
contents of Secs. 86.135-94, 86.136-90, 86.137-96, 86.140-94, 86.142-90, 
and 86.144-94 are applicable for determining emission results for 
vehicle exhaust emission systems designed to comply with the FTP 
emission standards, or the FTP emission element required for determining 
compliance with composite SFTP standards. Paragraphs (f) and (g) of this 
section discuss the additional test elements of aggressive driving 
(US06) and air conditioning (SC03) that comprise the exhaust emission 
components of the SFTP. Section 86.127-96(e) discusses fuel spitback 
emissions and paragraphs (h) and (i) of this section are applicable to 
all vehicle emission test procedures. Section 86.127-00 includes text 
that specifies requirements that differ from Sec. 86.127-96. Where a 
paragraph in Sec. 86.127-96 is identical and applicable to Sec. 86.127-
00, this may be indicated by specifying the corresponding paragraph and 
the statement ``[Reserved]. For guidance see Sec. 86.127-96.''
    (a) The overall test consists of prescribed sequences of fueling, 
parking, and operating test conditions. Vehicles are tested for any or 
all of the following emissions:
    (1) Gaseous exhaust THC, CO, NOX, CO2 (for 
petroleum-fueled and gaseous- fueled vehicles), plus CH3OH 
and HCHO for methanol-fueled vehicles, plus CH4 (for vehicles 
subject to the NMHC and NMHCE standards).
    (2) Particulates.
    (3) Evaporative HC (for gasoline-fueled, methanol-fueled and 
gaseous-fueled vehicles) and CH3OH (for methanol-fueled 
vehicles). The evaporative testing portion of the procedure occurs after 
the exhaust emission test; however, exhaust emissions need not be 
sampled to complete a test for evaporative emissions.
    (4) Fuel spitback (this test is not required for gaseous-fueled 
vehicles).
    (b) The FTP Otto-cycle exhaust emission test is designed to 
determine gaseous THC, CO, CO2, CH4, 
NOX, and particulate mass emissions from gasoline-fueled, 
methanol-fueled and gaseous-fueled Otto-cycle vehicles as well as 
methanol and formaldehyde from methanol-fueled Otto-cycle vehicles, 
while simulating an average trip in an urban area of 11 miles (18 
kilometers). The test consists of engine start-ups and vehicle operation 
on a chassis dynamometer through a specified driving schedule (see 
paragraph (a), EPA Urban Dynamometer Driving Schedule, of appendix I to 
this part). A proportional part of the diluted exhaust is collected 
continuously for subsequent analysis,

[[Page 446]]

using a constant volume (variable dilution) sampler or critical flow 
venturi sampler.
    (c) through (e) ``[Reserved]. For guidance see Sec. 86.127-96.''
    (f) The element of the SFTP for exhaust emissions related to 
aggressive driving (US06) is designed to determine gaseous THC, NMHC, 
CO, CO2, CH4, and NOX emissions from 
gasoline-fueled or diesel-fueled vehicles (see Sec. 86.158-00 
Supplemental test procedures; overview, and Sec. 86.159-00 Exhaust 
emission test procedures for US06 emissions). The test cycle simulates 
urban driving speeds and accelerations that are not represented by the 
FTP Urban Dynamometer Driving Schedule simulated trips discussed in 
paragraph (b) of this section. The test consists of vehicle operation on 
a chassis dynamometer through a specified driving cycle (see paragraph 
(g), US06 Dynamometer Driving Schedule, of appendix I to this part). A 
proportional part of the diluted exhaust is collected continuously for 
subsequent analysis, using a constant volume (variable dilution) sampler 
or critical flow venturi sampler.
    (g)(1) The element of the SFTP related to the increased exhaust 
emissions caused by air conditioning operation (SC03) is designed to 
determine gaseous THC, NMHC, CO, CO2, CH4, and 
NOX emissions from gasoline-fueled or diesel fueled vehicles 
related to air conditioning use (see Sec. 86.158-00 Supplemental federal 
test procedures; overview and Sec. 86.160-00 Exhaust emission test 
procedure for SC03 emissions). The test cycle simulates urban driving 
behavior with the air conditioner operating. The test consists of engine 
startups and vehicle operation on a chassis dynamometer through 
specified driving cycles (see paragraph (h), SC03 Dynamometer Driving 
Schedule, of appendix I to this part). A proportional part of the 
diluted exhaust is collected continuously for subsequent analysis, using 
a constant volume (variable dilution) sampler or critical flow venturi 
sampler. The testing sequence includes an approved preconditioning 
cycle, a 10 minute soak with the engine turned off, and the SC03 cycle 
with measured exhaust emissions.
    (2) The SC03 air conditioning test is conducted with the air 
conditioner operating at specified settings and the ambient test 
conditions of:
    (i) Air temperature of 95  deg.F;
    (ii) 100 grains of water/pound of dry air (approximately 40 percent 
relative humidity);
    (iii) Simulated solar heat intensity of 850 W/m \2\ (see 
Sec. 86.161-00(d)); and
    (iv) air flow directed at the vehicle that will provide 
representative air conditioner system condenser cooling at all vehicle 
speeds (see Sec. 86.161-00(e)).
    (3) Manufacturers have the option of simulating air conditioning 
operation during testing at other ambient test conditions provided they 
can demonstrate that the vehicle tail pipe exhaust emissions are 
representative of the emissions that would result from the SC03 cycle 
test procedure and the ambient conditions of paragraph (g)(2) of this 
section. The Administrator has approved two optional air conditioning 
test simulation procedures AC1 and AC2 (see Sec. 86.162-00) for only the 
model years of 2000 through 2002. If a manufacturer desires to conduct 
simulation SC03 testing for model year 2003 and beyond, the simulation 
test procedure must be approved in advance by the Administrator (see 
Secs. 86.162-00 and 86.163-00).
    (h) Except in cases of component malfunction or failure, all 
emission control systems installed on or incorporated in a new motor 
vehicle shall be functioning during all procedures in this subpart. 
Maintenance to correct component malfunction or failure shall be 
authorized in accordance with Sec. 86.090-25.
    (i) Background concentrations are measured for all species for which 
emissions measurements are made. For exhaust testing, this requires 
sampling and analysis of the dilution air. For evaporative testing, this 
requires measuring initial concentrations. (When testing methanol-fueled 
vehicles, manufacturers may choose not to measure background 
concentrations of methanol and/or formaldehyde, and then assume that the 
concentrations are zero during calculations.)

Sec. 86.127-90  Test procedures; overview.

    The procedures described in this and subsequent sections are used to 
determine the conformity of vehicles with the standards set forth in 
subpart A for light-duty vehicles and light-duty trucks.
    (a) The overall test consists of prescribed sequences of fueling, 
parking and operating conditions. Vehicles are tested for any or all of 
the following emissions:
    (1) Gaseous exhaust HC, CO, NOX, CO2 (for 
petroleum-fueled vehicles), plus CH3OH and HCHO for methanol-
fueled vehicles (measurement of CH3OH and HCHO may be omitted 
for 1990 through 1994 model year methanol-fueled vehicles provided a 
HFID calibrated on methanol is used for measuring HC plus 
CH3OH).
    (2) Particulates (diesel vehicles).
    (3) Evaporative HC (for gasoline-fueled and methanol-fueled 
vehicles) and CH3OH (for methanol-fueled vehicles). A 
separate CH3OH measurement may be omitted for 1990 through 
1994 model year methanol-fueled vehicles provided a HFID calibrated on 
methanol is used for measuring HC plus CH3OH.
    The evaporative portion of the test procedure occurs before and 
after the exhaust emission test, and in some cases, during the exhaust 
emission test.
    (b) The Otto-cycle exhaust emission test is designed to determine 
gaseous hydrocarbon, carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, and oxides of 
nitrogen mass emissions from gasoline-fueled and methanol-fueled 
vehicles as well as methanol and formaldehyde from methanol-fueled Otto-
cycle vehicles while simulating an average trip in an urban area of 7.5 
miles (12.1 kilometers). The test consists of engine startups and 
vehicle operation on a chassis dynamometer, through a specified driving 
schedule. A proportional part of the diluted exhaust is collected 
continuously for subsequent analysis, using a constant volume (variable 
dilution) sampler or critical flow venturi sampler.
    (c) The diesel exhaust emission test is designed to determine 
particulate and gaseous mass emissions during a test similar to the test 
in Sec. 86.127(b). For petroleum-fueled vehicles, diluted exhaust is 
continuously analyzed for total hydrocarbons using a heated sample line 
and analyzer. The other gaseous emissions, CO, CO2 and 
NOX are collected continuously for analysis as in 
Sec. 86.127(b). For methanol-fueled vehicles, hydrocarbons, methanol, 
formaldehyde, CO, CO2, and NOX are collected 
continuously for analysis as in Sec. 86.127(b). Hydrocarbons, methanol 
and formaldehyde are collected using heated sample lines, and a heated 
FID is used for hydrocarbons analyses. Simultaneous with the gaseous 
exhaust collection and analysis, particulates from a proportional part 
of the diluted exhaust are collected continuously on a filter. The mass 
of particulate is determined by the procedure described in Sec. 86.139. 
This testing requires a dilution tunnel as well as the constant volume 
sampler.
    (d) The evaporative emission test (gasoline-fueled vehicles and 
methanol-fueled vehicles) is designed to determine hydrocarbon and 
methanol evaporative emissions as a consequence of diurnal temperature 
fluctuation, urban driving, and hot soaks during parking. It is 
associated with a series of events representative of a motor vehicle's 
operation, which result in hydrocarbon and/or methanol vapor losses. The 
test procedure is designed to measure:
    (1) Diurnal breathing losses resulting from daily temperature 
changes, measured by the enclosure technique;
    (2) Running losses from suspected sources (if indicated by 
engineering analysis or vehicle inspection) resulting from a simulated 
trip on a chassis dynamometer, measured by carbon traps; and
    (3) Hot soak losses, which result when the vehicle is parked and the 
hot engine is turned off, measured by the enclosure technique.
    (e) Except in cases of component malfunction or failure, all 
emission control systems installed on or incorporated in a new motor 
vehicle shall be functioning during all procedures in this subpart. 
Maintenance to correct component malfunction or failure shall be 
authorized in accordance with Sec. 86.088-25.

provided a HFID calibrated on methanol is used for measuring THC plus 
CH3OH.)
    (2) Particulates.
    (3) Evaporative HC (for gasoline-fueled and methanol-fueled 
vehicles) and CH3OH (for methanol-fueled vehicles). A 
separate CH3OH measurement may be omitted for 1990 through

methanol is used for measuring HC plus CH3OH.
    (b) The Otto-cycle exhaust emission test is designed to determine 
gaseous THC, CO, CO2, CH4, NOX, and 
particulate mass emissions from gasoline-fueled and methanol-fueled

CO2, and NOX) are collected continuously for 
analysis as in Sec. 86.127(b). For methanol-fueled vehicles, THC, 
methanol, formaldehyde, CO, CO2, CH4, and 
NOX are collected continuously for analysis as in 
Sec. 86.127(b). THC, methanol, and formaldehyde are collected using 
heated sample lines, and a heated FID is used for THC analyses. 
Simultaneous with the gaseous exhaust collection and analysis, 
particulates from a proportional part of the diluted exhaust are 
collected continuously on a filter. The mass of particulate is 
determined by the procedure described in Sec. 86.139. This testing 
requires a dilution tunnel as well as the constant volume sampler.
    (d) The evaporative emission test (gasoline-fueled vehicles and 
methanol-fueled vehicles) is designed to determine hydrocarbon and 
methanol evaporative emissions as a consequence of diurnal temperature 
fluctuation, urban driving, and hot soaks during parking. It is 
associated with a series of events representative of a motor vehicle's

hot engine is turned off, measured by the enclosure technique.
    (e) Except in cases of component malfunction or failure, all 
emission control systems installed on or incorporated in a new motor 
vehicle shall be functioning during all procedures in this subpart. 
Maintenance to correct component malfunction or failure shall be 
authorized in accordance with Sec. 86.090-25.
    (f) Background concentrations are measured for all species for which 
emissions measurements are made. For exhaust testing, this requires 
sampling and analysis of the dilution air. For evaporative testing, this 
requires measuring initial concentrations.

measure background concentrations of methanol and/or formaldehyde, and 
then assume that the concentrations are zero during calculations.)

diurnal temperature fluctuation, urban driving and hot soaks following 
drives. It is associated with a series of events that a vehicle may 
experience and that may result in hydrocarbon and/or methanol vapor 
losses. The test procedure is designed to measure:
    (1) Diurnal emissions resulting from daily temperature changes (as 
well as relatively constant resting losses), measured by the enclosure 
technique (see Sec. 86.133);
    (2) Running losses resulting from a simulated trip performed on a 
chassis dynamometer, measured by the enclosure or point-source technique 
(see Sec. 86.134; this test is not required for gaseous-fueled 
vehicles); and
    (3) Hot soak emissions, which result when the vehicle is parked and 
the hot engine is turned off, measured by the enclosure technique (see 
Sec. 86.138).
    (e) Fuel spitback emissions occur when a vehicle's fuel fill neck 
cannot accommodate dispensing rates. The vehicle test for spitback 
consists of a short drive followed immediately by a complete refueling 
event. This test is

Sec. 86.128-00   Transmissions.

    Section 86.128-00 includes text that specifies requirements that 
differ from Sec. 86.128-79. Where a paragraph in Sec. 86.128-79 is 
identical and applicable to Sec. 86.128-00, this may be indicated by 
specifying the corresponding paragraph and the statement ``[Reserved]. 
For guidance see Sec. 86.128-79.''
    (a) through (c) [Reserved]. For guidance see Sec. 86.128-79.
    (d) The vehicle shall be driven with appropriate accelerator pedal 
movement necessary to achieve the speed versus time relationship 
prescribed by the driving schedule. Both smoothing of speed variations 
and excessive accelerator pedal perturbations are to be avoided.
    (e) through (h) [Reserved]. For guidance see Sec. 86.128-79.
[61 FR 54892, Oct. 22, 1996]



Sec. 86.128-79  Transmissions.

    (a) All test conditions, except as noted, shall be run according to 
the manufacturer's recommendations to the ultimate purchaser, Provided, 
That: Such recommendations are representative of what may reasonably be 
expected to be followed by the ultimate purchaser under in-use 
conditions.
    (b) Vehicles equipped with free wheeling or overdrive, except as 
noted, shall be tested with these features operated according to the 
manufacturer's recommendations to the ultimate purchaser.
    (c) Idle modes less than one minute in length shall be run with 
automatic transmissions in ``Drive'' and the wheels braked; manual 
transmissions shall be in gear with the clutch disengaged, except for 
the first idle mode (see Secs. 86.134, 86.136, and 86.137). The first 
idle mode and idle modes longer than one minute in length may be run 
with automatic transmissions in ``Neutral;'' manual transmissions may be 
in ``Neutral'' with the clutch engaged (clutch may be disengaged for 
engine start-up). If an automatic transmission is in ``Neutral'' during 
an idle mode, it shall be placed in ``Drive'' with the wheels braked at 
least 5 seconds before the end of the idle mode. If a manual 
transmission is in ``Neutral'' during an idle mode, it shall be placed 
in gear with the clutch disengaged at least 5 seconds before the end of 
the idle mode.
    (d) The vehicle shall be driven with minimum accelerator pedal 
movement to maintain the desired speed.
    (e) Accelerations shall be driven smoothly following representative 
shift speeds and procedures. For manual transmissions, the operator 
shall release the accelerator pedal during each shift and accomplish the 
shift with minimum time. If the vehicle cannot accelerate at the 
specified rate, the vehicle shall be operated at maximum available power 
until the vehicle speed reaches the value prescribed for that time in 
the driving schedule.
    (f) The deceleration modes shall be run in gear using brakes or 
accelerator pedal as necessary to maintain the desired speed. Manual 
transmission vehicles shall have the clutch engaged and shall not change 
gears from the previous mode. For those modes which decelerate to zero, 
manual transmission clutches shall be depressed when the speed drops 
below 15 mph (24.1 km/h), when engine roughness is evident, or when 
engine stalling is imminent.

[[Page 451]]

    (g)(1) In the case of test vehicles equipped with manual 
transmissions, the transmission shall be shifted in accordance with 
procedures which are representative of shift patterns that may 
reasonably be expected to be followed by vehicles in use, in terms of 
such variables as vehicle speed or percent rated engine speed. At the 
Administrator's discretion, a test vehicle may also be shifted according 
to the shift procedures recommended by the manufacturer to the ultimate 
purchaser, if such procedures differ from those which are reasonably 
expected to be followed by vehicles in use.
    (2) A manufacturer may recommend to the ultimate purchaser shift 
procedures other than those used in testing by the EPA, Provided that: 
All shift procedures (including multiple shift speeds) which the 
manufacturer proposes to supply to the ultimate purchaser are provided 
to the Administrator as part of the manufacturer's application for 
certification, or as an amendment to such application, under 
Sec. 86.079-32, Sec. 86.079-33, or Sec. 86.079-34.
    (h) Downshifting is allowed at the beginning of or during a power 
mode in accordance with the shift procedure determined in paragraph 
(g)(1) of this section.

Sec. 86.129-00   Road load power, test weight, and inertia weight class determination.

    Applicability. Section 86.129-94 (a) applies to all vehicle testing. 
Section 86.129-80 (b) and (c) are applicable to vehicles from engine 
families which are not required to meet SFTP requirements, although a 
manufacturer may elect to use the requirements in paragraphs (e) and (f) 
of this section instead of Sec. 86.129-80 (b) and (c) on any vehicle. 
Section 86.129-94(d) which discusses fuel temperature profile, is 
applicable to evaporative emission running loss testing. Paragraphs (e) 
and (f) of this section are applicable to vehicles from engine families 
required to comply with SFTP requirements. Section 86.129-00 includes 
text that specifies requirements that differ from Sec. 86.129-80 or 
Sec. 86.129-94. Where a paragraph in Sec. 86.129-80 or Sec. 86.129-94 is 
identical and applicable to Sec. 86.129-00, this may be indicated by 
specifying the corresponding paragraph and the statement ``[Reserved]. 
For guidance see Sec. 86.129-80.'' or ``[Reserved]. For guidance see 
Sec. 86.129-94.''

    (b) through (c) [Reserved]. For guidance see Sec. 86.129-80.
    (d) [Reserved]. For guidance see Sec. 86.129-94.
    (e)(1) For each test vehicle from an engine family required to 
comply with SFTP requirements, the manufacturer shall supply 
representative road load forces for the vehicle at speeds between 15 km/
hr (9.3 mph) and 115 km/hr (71.5 mph). The road load force shall 
represent vehicle operation on a smooth level road, during calm winds, 
with no precipitation, at an ambient temperature of 20  deg.C (68 
deg.F), and atmospheric pressure of 98.21 kPa. Road load force for low 
speed may be extrapolated. Manufacturers may, at their option, use road 
load forces meeting the objectives of paragraph (f) of this section for 
any vehicle.
    (2) The dynamometer's power absorption shall be set for each 
vehicle's emission test sequence such that the force imposed during 
dynamometer operation matches actual road load force at all speeds.
    (3) The 10 percent adjustment in road load power for air 
conditioning discussed in Sec. 86.129-80(b)(3), is not applicable when 
road load forces are determined for dynamometer testing using paragraphs 
(e)(1) and (e)(2) of this section.
    (f)(1) Required test dynamometer inertia weight class selections for 
the test elements of FTP, US06, and SC03 are determined by the test 
vehicles test weight basis and corresponding equivalent weight as listed 
in the tabular information of Sec. 86.129-94(a). With the exception of 
the fuel economy test weight information in footnote 4 to the table in 
Sec. 86.129-94(a), none of the other footnotes to the tabular listing 
apply to emission tests utilizing an approved single roll dynamometer or

weight class corresponding to their equivalent test weight.
    (i) For light-duty vehicles and light light-duty trucks, test weight 
basis is loaded vehicle weight, which is the vehicle weight plus 300 
pounds.
    (ii) For heavy light-duty trucks, the definition of test weight 
basis varies depending on the SFTP test element being tested.
    (A) For the aggressive driving cycle (US06), the test weight basis 
is the vehicle curb weight plus 300 pounds.
    (B) For the FTP and the air conditioning (SC03) element of the SFTP, 
the test weight is the average of the curb weight plus GVWR.
    (2) Dynamic inertia load adjustments may be made to the test inertia 
weight during specific US06 acceleration events when wide open throttle 
operation is equal to or greater than eight (8) seconds (see 
Sec. 86.108-00). The dynamic inertia weight adjustment procedure must be 
approved in advance of conducting official US06 testing. The 
Administrator will perform confirmatory US06 testing using the same 
dynamometer inertia adjustment procedures as the manufacturer if:
    (i) The manufacturer submits a request to the Administrator; and
    (ii) The manufacturer provides the dynamometer hardware and/or 
software necessary for these adjustments to the Administrator.

  to the nearest \1/2\ hp.
\2\ For vans, the road load power at 50 mi/h (horsepower) shall be 0.50
  times B (defined below) rounded to the nearest \1/2\ hp.
\3\ B is the basic vehicle frontal area (square foot) plus the
  additional frontal area (square foot) of mirrors and optional
  equipment exceeding 0.1 ft2 which are anticipated to be sold on more
  than 33 pct of the car line. Frontal area measurements shall be
  computed to the nearest 10th of a square foot using a method approved
  in advanced by the administrator.
\4\ Light-duty vehicles over 5,750 lb loaded vehicle weight shall be
  tested at a 5,500 lb equivalent test weight.

    (b) Power absorption unit adjustment--light-duty trucks. (1) The 
power absorption unit shall be adjusted to reproduce road load power at 
50 mph true speed. The indicated road load power setting shall take into 
account the dynamometer friction. The relationship between road load 
(absorbed) power and indicated road load power for a particular 
dynamometer shall be determined by the procedure outlined in Sec. 86.118 
or other suitable means.
    (2) The road load power listed in the table above shall be used or 
the vehicle

manufacturer may determine the road load power by an alternate procedure 
requested by the manufacturer and approved in advance by the 
Administrator.
    (3) Where it is expected that more than 33 percent of a car line 
within an engine-system combination will be equipped with air 
conditioning per Sec. 86.080-24(g)(2), the road load power listed above 
or as determined in paragraph (b)(2) of this section shall be increased 
by 10 percent, up to a maximum increase of 1.4 horsepower, for testing 
all test vehicies representing that car line within that engine-system 
combination if those vehicles are intended to be offered with air 
conditioning in production. The above increase for air conditioning 
shall be added prior to rounding off as instructed by notes 2 and 3 of 
the table.
    (c) Power absorption unit adjustment--light-duty vehicles. (1) The 
power absorption unit shall be adjusted to reproduce road load power at 
50 mph true speed. The dynamometer power absorption shall take into 
account the dynamometer friction, as discussed in Sec. 86.118.
    (2) The dynamometer road load setting is determined from the 
equivalent test weight, the reference frontal area, the body shape, the 
vehicle protuberances, and the tire type by the following equations.
    (i) For light-duty vehicles to be tested on a twin roll dynamometer.

                            Hp = aA + P + tW

where:

Hp = the dynamometer power absorber setting at 50 mph (horsepower).
A = the vehicle reference frontal area (ft2). The vehicle 
          reference frontal area is defined as the area of the 
          orthogonal projection of the vehicle; including tires and 
          suspension components, but excluding vehicle protuberances, 
          onto a plane perpendicular to both the longitudinal plane of 
          the vehicle and the surface upon which the vehicle is 
          positioned. Measurements of this area shall be computed to the 
          nearest tenth of a square foot using a method approved in 
          advance by the Administrator.
P = the protuberance power correction factor from table 1 of this 
          paragraph (horsepower).
W = vehicle equivalent test weight (lbs) from the table in paragraph 
          (a).
a = 0.43 for fastback-shaped vehicles; = 0.50 for all other light duty 
          vehicles.
t = 0.0 for vehicles equipped with radial ply tires; = 3  x  10- 
          4 for all other vehicles.

    A vehicle is considered to have a fastback shape if the rearward 
projection of that portion of the rear surface (Ab) which 
slopes at an angle of less than 20 degrees from the horizontal is at 
least 25 percent as large as the vehicle reference frontal area. In 
addition, this surface must be smooth, continuous, and free from any 
local transitions greater than four degrees. An example of a fastback 
shape is presented in Figure 1.

    The protuberance frontal area, Ap, is defined in a manner 
analogous to the definition of the vehicle reference frontal area, i.e., 
the total area of the orthogonal projections of the vehicle mirrors, 
hood ornaments, roof racks, and other protuberance onto a plane(s) 
perpendicular to both the longitudinal plane of the vehicle and the 
surface upon which the vehicle is positioned. A protuberance is defined 
as any fixture attached to the vehicle protruding more than 1 inch from 
the vehicle surface and having a projected area greater than 0.01 
ft2 with the area calculated by a method approved in advance 
by the Administrator. Included in the total protuberance frontal area 
shall be all fixtures which occur as standard equipment. The area of any 
optional equipment shall also be included if it is expected that more 
than 33 percent of the car line sold will be equipped with this option.

    (ii) The dynamometer power absorber setting for light-duty vehicles 
shall be rounded to the nearest 0.1 horsepower.
    (iii) For light-duty vehicles to be tested on a single, large roll 
dynamometer.

        Hp = aA + P + (5.0  x  10 - 4 + 0.33t)W

All symbols in the above equation are defined in paragraph (c)(2)(i) of 
this section. The rounding criteria of paragraph (c)(2)(i) also apply to 
this paragraph.

    (3) The road load power calculated above shall be used or the 
vehicle manufacturer may determine the road load power by an alternate 
procedure requested by the manufacturer and approved in advance by the 
Administrator.
    (4) Where it is expected that more than 33 percent of a car line 
within an engine-system combination will be equipped with air 
conditioning, per Sec. 86.080-24(g)(2), the road load power as 
determined in paragraph (c) (2) or (3) of this section shall be 
increased by 10 percent up to a maximum increment of 1.4 horsepower, for 
testing all test vehicles of that car line within that engine-system 
combination if those vehicles are intended to be offered with air 
conditioning in production. This power increment shall be added to the 
indicated dynamometer power absorption setting prior to rounding off 
this value.

    (b) through (c) [Reserved]. For guidance see Sec. 86.129-80.
    (d) Fuel temperature profile--(1) General requirements. (i) To be 
tested for running losses, as specified in Sec. 86.134, a vehicle must 
have a fuel temperature profile. The following procedure is used to 
generate the fuel temperature profile, which serves as a target for 
controlling fuel temperatures during the running loss test. This profile 
represents the fuel temperature change that occurs during on-road 
driving. If a vehicle has more than one fuel tank, a profile shall be 
established for each tank. Manufacturers may also simultaneously 
generate a profile for vapor temperatures.
    (ii) If a manufacturer uses a vehicle model to develop a profile to 
represent multiple models, the vehicle model selected must have the 
greatest expected fuel temperature increase during driving of all those 
models it represents. Also, manufacturers must select test vehicles with 
any available vehicle options that increase fuel temperatures during 
driving (for example, any feature that limits underbody airflow).
    (iii) Manufacturers may conduct testing to develop fuel temperature 
profiles in a laboratory setting, subject to approval by the 
Administrator. The laboratory facility should simulate outdoor testing 
to reproduce fuel and vapor temperature behavior over the specified 
driving schedule. The design of the laboratory facility should include 
consideration of any parameters that may affect fuel temperatures, such 
as solar loading, pavement heat, and relative wind velocities around and 
underneath the test vehicle. Indoor testing to develop the fuel 
temperature profiles must be conducted with little or no vehicle-
specific adjustment of laboratory parameters. Manufacturers would need 
to maintain an ongoing demonstration of correlation between laboratory 
and outdoor measurement of fuel temperatures. Specifically, fuel 
temperatures and pressures from indoor driving should be at least as 
high as measured when driving outdoors according to the procedures 
described in this section.
    (iv) Small-volume manufacturers, as defined in Sec. 86.094-14(b)(1), 
may use an alternate method for generating fuel temperature profiles, 
subject to the approval of the Administrator.
    (v) The Administrator may conduct testing to establish any vehicle's 
temperature profiles or to verify compliance with fuel tank pressure 
requirements.
    (2) Vehicle instrumentation. (i) The vehicle must be equipped with 
temperature sensors and pressure transducers, as described in 
Sec. 86.107-96 (e) and (f), and a driver's aid, which shall be 
configured to provide the test driver with the desired vehicle speed vs. 
time trace and the actual vehicle speed.
    (ii) A computer, data logger, or strip chart data recorder shall 
record the following parameters at a minimum during the test run:
    (A) Desired speed;
    (B) Actual speed;
    (C) Instantaneous average liquid fuel temperature (Tliq); 
and
    (D) Vapor space pressure (the Administrator may omit measurement of 
fuel tank pressure).

[[Page 456]]

    (iii) The data recording system described in paragraph (d)(2)(ii) of 
this section shall be capable of resolving time to 1 s, 
capable of resolving temperature to 2  deg.F, capable of 
resolving pressure to 1.0 inch of water, and capable of 
resolving speed to 1 mph. The temperature and pressure 
signals shall be recorded at intervals of up to 1 minute; speed signals 
shall be recorded at intervals of up to 1 second.
    (3) Ambient conditions. The procedure shall be run under the 
following ambient conditions. Conditions should be representative of 
sunny summer days.
    (i) Starting ambient temperature (Tamb,o) shall be at 
least 95  deg.F, steady or increasing (no more than 2  deg.F drop) 
during the procedure. Ambient temperature shall be measured and recorded 
in regular intervals of at least once every 5 minutes. Measure ambient 
temperature with the following requirements (based on Federal Standard 
for Siting Meteorological Sensors at Airports, FCM-S4-1987). The sensors 
shall be mounted 51 feet (1.50.3 meters) above 
ground level. The sensors shall be protected from radiation from the 
sun, sky, earth, and any other surrounding objects, but at the same time 
be adequately ventilated. The sensors shall be installed in such a 
position as to ensure that measurements are representative of the free 
air circulation in the locality and not influenced by artificial 
conditions such as large buildings, cooling towers, and expanses of 
concrete and tarmac. Keep any grass and vegetation within 100 feet (30 
meters) of the sensor clipped to a height of about 10 inches (25 
centimeters) or less.
    (ii) Wind conditions shall be calm to light with maximum wind speed 
of 15 mph. In the case of temporary gusting, wind speeds between 15 and 
25 mph may occur for up to 5 percent of the total driving time without 
invalidating the data collection. Wind speed shall be measured and 
recorded in regular intervals of at least once per minute. Measure wind 
speed with the following requirements (based on Federal Standard for 
Siting Meteorological Sensors at Airports, FCM-S4-1987). The site should 
be relatively level, but small gradual slopes are acceptable. The sensor 
shall be mounted 30 to 33 feet (9 to 10 meters) above the average ground 
height within a radius of 500 feet (150 meters). The sensor height shall 
not exceed 33 feet, except as necessary to be at least 15 feet (5 
meters) above the height of any obstruction (e.g. vegetation, buildings, 
etc.) within a 500 foot (150 meter) radius. An object is considered to 
be an obstruction if the included lateral angle from the sensor to the 
ends of the object is 10 degrees or more.
    (iii) Road surface temperature shall be at least 125  deg.F 
throughout the driving period. Pavement temperature shall be measured 
and recorded in regular intervals of at least once per minute. The track 
temperature may be measured with an embedded sensor, a portable 
temperature probe, or an infrared pyrometer that can provide an accuracy 
of 2  deg.F. Temperatures must be measured on a surface 
representative of the surface where the vehicle is driven.
    (iv) Conditions shall be sunny or mostly sunny with a maximum cloud 
cover of 25 percent.
    (v) Reported cloud cover, wind speed, and ambient temperature should 
be consistent with that reported by the nearest weather station; the 
Administrator may request justification of any discrepancy.
    (4) Profile determination procedure. (i) Drain the fuel tank(s) and 
fill with test fuel to the ``tank fuel volume'' defined in Sec. 86.082-
2. The test fuel should meet the specifications of Sec. 86.113, except 
that fuel with a lower volatility may be used, subject to Administrator 
approval. Manufacturers using a lower volatility fuel must generate a 
vapor temperature profile for demonstrating compliance with the limit on 
fuel tank pressure during the running loss test (see Sec. 86.134-96).
    (ii) The vehicle shall be moved to the location where the data is to 
be collected. It may be driven a maximum distance of 5 miles and may 
also be transported by other means. The vehicle shall be stabilized by 
one of the following methods:
    (A) The vehicle shall be parked for a minimum of 12 hours in an open 
area on a surface that is representative of the test road, without any 
artificial

[[Page 457]]

heating or cooling of the fuel. The orientation of the front of the 
vehicle during parking (e.g., N, SW, etc.) shall be documented.
    (B) The vehicle may be soaked in a temperature-controlled 
environment to stabilize fuel temperatures. Before starting the drive, 
the vehicle shall be stabilized with fuel temperatures 95 3 
deg.F for at least one hour. The fuel temperature may not exceed 98 
deg.F at any time before the beginning of the driving schedule, during 
which only whole-vehicle heating and cooling may be used to control fuel 
temperatures. If a manufacturer uses the provisions of paragraph 
(d)(7)(v) of this section to establish a lower initial fuel temperature 
for the running loss test, the fuel in the test vehicle may not be 
stabilized at a temperature higher than the newly established initial 
fuel temperature.
    (iii) Once the ambient conditions specified in paragraph (d)(3) of 
this section are met and the vehicle has been stabilized according to 
paragraph (d)(4)(ii) of this section, the vehicle's engine may be 
started. The vehicle's air conditioning system (if so equipped) shall be 
set to the ``normal'' air conditioning mode and adjusted to the minimum 
discharge air temperature and high fan speed. Vehicles equipped with 
automatic temperature controlled air conditioning systems shall be set 
to operate in ``automatic'' temperature and fan modes with the system 
set at 72  deg.F.
    (iv) The vehicle may be operated at minimum throttle for a period up 
to 60 seconds prior to the start of the driving schedule, as necessary 
to move from the parking location onto the road surface. The driver's 
aid shall be started and the vehicle operated over the driving cycle 
specified in Sec. 86.134-96(b) with the transmission operated in the 
same manner as specified in Sec. 86.128-79. The data recording system 
shall provide a record of the required parameters over the entire period 
of driving.
    (5) Records required. In addition to the vehicle data recording, the 
following parameters shall be documented for the determination of the 
fuel temperature profile:
    (i) Date and time of vehicle fueling;
    (ii) Odometer reading at vehicle fueling;
    (iii) Date and time vehicle was parked, parking location and 
orientation;
    (iv) Odometer reading at parking;
    (v) Date and time engine was started;
    (vi) Time of initiation of first UDDS;
    (vii) Time of completion of the driving cycle;
    (viii) Ambient temperatures throughout the period of driving 
(Tamb);
    (ix) Wind speed throughout the period of driving;
    (x) Track surface temperatures throughout the period of driving 
cycle (Tsur);
    (xi) Percent cloud cover during the period of driving; and
    (xii) Ambient temperature, wind speed, and percent cloud cover 
reported by the nearest weather station for the time corresponding most 
closely to the period of driving.
    (6) Fuel tank pressure. Tank pressure shall not exceed 10 inches of 
water at any time during the temperature profile determination unless a 
pressurized system is used and the manufacturer demonstrates that vapor 
would not be vented to the atmosphere upon fuel cap removal.
    (7) Calculation of temperature profiles. (i) The traces from the 
driving schedule shall be verified to meet the speed tolerance 
requirements of Sec. 86.115. The following conditions shall be verified:
    (A) Tamb,iTamb,o-2  deg.F.

Where,
    (1) i=instantaneous measurement throughout the drive; and
    (2) o=initial measurement at the start of the specified driving 
schedule.
    (B) Tamb,o95  deg.F.
    (C) Tsur,i-Tamb,i30  deg.F.
    (D) Wmax15 mph.
    (ii) Failure to comply with any of these requirements shall result 
in invalidation of the data and require that the procedure be repeated, 
beginning with the fuel drain at paragraph (d)(4)(i) of this section.
    (iii) If all these requirements are met, the following calculations 
shall be performed to determine a profile for liquid fuel temperatures 
and, if applicable, for vapor temperatures:
Ti,profile=Ti-To.

Where:

[[Page 458]]

    (A) Ti,profile=the series of temperatures that comprise 
the relative temperature profile.
    (B) Ti=the series of observed liquid fuel or vapor 
temperatures during the drive.
    (C) To=the liquid fuel or vapor temperature observed at 
the start of the specified driving schedule.
    (iv) The relative temperature profile consists of the set of 
temperatures at each 1-minute interval. If temperatures are sampled more 
frequently than once per minute, the temperature data points may 
represent a rolling average of temperatures sampled for up to one-minute 
intervals. If multiple valid test runs are conducted for any model, then 
all the collected data shall be used to calculate a composite profile, 
based on the average temperatures at each point. The absolute 
temperature profile is determined by adding 95  deg.F (35  deg.C) to 
each point of the relative profile. Other methodologies for developing 
corrected liquid fuel and vapor space temperature profiles may be used 
if demonstrated to yield equivalent results and approved in advance by 
the Administrator.
    (v) Manufacturers may use a lower initial fuel temperature for the 
running loss test, if approved in advance by the Administrator. To 
demonstrate the need for such an adjustment, manufacturers would be 
expected to determine the maximum fuel temperature experienced by a 
vehicle during an extended park or after driving one UDDS cycle when 
exposed to the ambient conditions described in paragraph (d)(3) of this 
section. To use this provision, manufacturers would have to show maximum 
fuel temperatures no greater than 92  deg.F.

Sec. 86.130-00, this may be indicated by specifying the corresponding 
paragraph and the statement ``[Reserved]. For guidance see Sec. 86.130-
96.''
    (a) through (d) [Reserved]. For guidance see Sec. 86.130-96.
    (e) The supplemental tests for exhaust emissions related to 
aggressive driving (US06) and air conditioning (SC03) use are conducted 
as stand-alone tests as described in Secs. 86.158-00, 86.159-00, and 
86.160-00. These tests may be performed in any sequence that maintains 
the appropriate preconditioning requirements for these tests as 
specified in Sec. 86.132-00.
    (f) If tests are invalidated after collection of emission data from 
previous test segments, the test may be repeated to collect only those 
data points needed to complete emission measurements. Compliance with 
emission standards may be determined by combining emission measurements 
from different test runs. If any emission measurements are repeated, the 
new measurements supersede previous values.

the vehicle, the soak period may be interrupted once for up to 10 
minutes to transport the vehicle from one soak area to another, provided 
the ambient temperature experienced by the vehicle is never below 68 
deg.F. The temperatures monitored during testing must be representative 
of those experienced by the test vehicle.
    (d) The vehicle shall be approximately level during all phases of 
the test sequence to prevent abnormal fuel distribution.
    (e) If tests are invalidated after collection of emission data from 
previous test segments, the test may be repeated to collect only those 
data points needed to complete emission measurements. Compliance with 
emission standards may be determined by combining emission measurements 
from different test runs. If any emission measurements are repeated, the 
new measurements supersede previous values.

evaporative emission testing. Paragraphs (n) and (o) of this section are 
applicable to vehicles tested for the SFTP supplemental tests of 
aggressive driving (US06) and air conditioning (SC03). Section 86.132-00 
includes text that specifies requirements that differ from Sec. 86.132-
96. Where a paragraph in Sec. 86.132-96 is identical and applicable to 
Sec. 86.132-00, this may be indicated by specifying the corresponding 
paragraph and the statement ``[Reserved]. For guidance see Sec. 86.132-
96.''
    (a) through (c)(1) [Reserved]. For guidance see Sec. 86.132-96.
    (c)(2)(i) Once a test vehicle has completed the refueling and 
vehicle soak steps specified in Sec. 86.132-96 (b) and (c)(1), these 
steps may be omitted in subsequent testing with the same vehicle and the 
same fuel specifications, provided the vehicle remains under laboratory 
ambient temperature conditions for at least 6 hours before starting the 
next test. In such cases, each subsequent test shall begin with the 
preconditioning drive specified in Sec. 86.132-96(c)(1). The test 
vehicle may not be used to set dynamometer horsepower.
    (ii) The SFTP test elements of aggressive driving (US06) and air

and/or evaporative test sequence without refueling provided the vehicle 
has remained under laboratory ambient temperature conditions. If the 
time interval exceeds 72 hours or the vehicle leaves the ambient 
temperature conditions of the laboratory, the manufacturer must repeat 
the refueling operation.
    (d) through (m) [Reserved]. For guidance see Sec. 86.132-96.
    (n) Aggressive Driving Test (US06) Preconditioning. (1) If the US06 
test follows the exhaust emission FTP or evaporative testing, the 
refueling step may be deleted and the vehicle may be preconditioned 
using the fuel remaining in the tank (see paragraph (c)(2)(ii) of this 
section). The test vehicle may be pushed or driven onto the test 
dynamometer. Acceptable cycles for preconditioning are as follows:
    (i) If the soak period since the last exhaust test element is less 
than or equal to two hours, preconditioning may consist of a 505, 866, 
highway, US06, or SC03 test cycles.
    (ii) If the soak period since the last exhaust test element is 
greater than two hours, preconditioning consists of one full Urban 
Dynamometer Driving Cycle. Manufacturers, at their option, may elect to 
use the preconditioning in paragraph (n)(1)(i) of this section when the 
soak period exceeds two hours.
    (iii) If a manufacturer has concerns about fuel effects on adaptive 
memory systems, a manufacturer may precondition a test vehicle on test 
fuel and the US06 cycle. Upon request from a manufacturer, the 
administrator will also perform the preconditioning with the US06 cycle.
    (iv) The preconditioning cycles for the US06 test schedule are 
conducted at the same ambient test conditions as the certification US06 
test.
    (2) Following the preconditioning specified in paragraphs (n)(1)(i), 
(ii), and (iii) of this section, the test vehicle is returned to idle 
for one to two minutes before the start of the official US06 test cycle.
    (o) Air Conditioning Test (SC03) Preconditioning. (1) If the SC03 
test follows the exhaust emission FTP or evaporative testing, the 
refueling step may be deleted and the vehicle may be preconditioned 
using the fuel remaining in the tank (see paragraph (c)(2)(ii) of this 
section). The test vehicle may be pushed or driven onto the test 
dynamometer. Acceptable cycles for preconditioning are as follows:
    (i) If the soak period since the last exhaust test element is less 
than or equal to two hours, preconditioning may consist of a 505, 866, 
or SC03 test cycles.
    (ii) If the soak period since the last exhaust test element is 
greater than two hours, preconditioning consists of one full Urban 
Dynamometer Driving Cycle. Manufacturers, at their option, may elect to 
use the preconditioning in paragraph (o)(1)(i) of this section when the 
soak period exceeds two hours.
    (2) Following the preconditioning specified in paragraphs (o)(1)(i) 
and (ii) of this section, the test vehicle is turned off, the vehicle 
cooling fan(s) is turned off, and the vehicle is allowed to soak for 10 
minutes prior to the start of the official SC03 test cycle.
    (3) The preconditioning cycles for the SC03 air conditioning test 
and the 10 minute soak are conducted at the same ambient test conditions 
as the SC03 certification air conditioning test.

Sec. 86.132-96  Vehicle preconditioning.

    (a) Fuel tank cap(s) of gasoline- and methanol-fueled vehicles shall 
be removed during any period that the vehicle is parked outdoors 
awaiting testing, to prevent unusual loading of the canisters. During 
this time care must be taken to prevent entry of water or other 
contaminants into the fuel tank. During storage in the test area while 
awaiting testing, the fuel tank cap(s) may be in place. The vehicle 
shall be moved into the test area and the following operations 
performed.
    (b)(1) Gasoline- and Methanol-Fueled Vehicles. Drain the fuel 
tank(s) and fill with test fuel, as specified in Sec. 86.113, to the 
``tank fuel volume'' defined in Sec. 86.082-2. The fuel cap(s) shall be 
installed within one minute after refueling.
    (2) Gaseous-Fueled Vehicles. Vehicle fuel tanks to be filled with 
fuel that meets the specifications in Sec. 86.113. Fuel tanks shall be 
filled to a minimum of 75% of service pressure for natural gas-fueled 
vehicles or a minimum of 75% of available fill volume for liquefied 
petroleum gas-fueled vehicles. Prior draining of the fuel tanks is not 
called for if the fuel in the tanks already meets the specifications in 
Sec. 86.113.
    (c)(1) Gasoline- and methanol-fueled vehicles shall be soaked for at 
least 6 hours after being refueled. Petroleum-fueled diesel vehicles and 
gaseous-fueled vehicles shall be soaked for at least 1 hour after being

either by being driven or pushed, on a dynamometer and operated through 
one Urban Dynamometer Driving Schedule (UDDS), specified in Sec. 86.115 
and appendix I of this part.
    (2) Once a test vehicle has completed the refueling and vehicle soak 
steps specified in paragraphs (b) and (c)(1) of this section, these 
steps may be omitted in subsequent testing with the same vehicle and the 
same fuel specifications, provided the vehicle remains under laboratory 
ambient temperature

[[Page 465]]

conditions for at least 6 hours before starting the next test. In such 
cases, each subsequent test shall begin with the preconditioning drive 
specified in this paragraph. The test vehicle may not be used to set 
dynamometer horsepower.
    (d) For unusual circumstances where the need for additional 
preconditioning is demonstrated by the manufacturer, such 
preconditioning may be allowed with the advance approval of the 
Administrator.
    (e) The Administrator may also choose to conduct or require to be 
conducted additional preconditioning to ensure that the evaporative 
emission control system is stabilized in the case of gasoline-fueled and 
methanol-fueled vehicles, or to ensure that the exhaust system is 
stabilized in the case of petroleum- and methanol-fueled diesel 
vehicles. The preconditioning shall consist of one of the following:
    (1) For gasoline- and methanol-fueled vehicles. (i) Additional 
preconditioning shall consist of no more than 50 miles of mileage 
accumulation under typical driving conditions, either on the road or on 
a dynamometer.
    (ii) In the case of repeat testing on a flexible-fueled vehicle, in 
which the test fuel is changed, the following preconditioning procedure 
shall be used. This additional preconditioning allows the vehicle to 
adapt to the new fuel before the next test run.
    (A) Purge the vehicle's evaporative canister for 60 minutes at 0.8 
cfm.
    (B) Drain the fuel tank(s) and fill with 3 gallons of the test fuel.
    (C) Start the vehicle and allow it to idle for 1 minute.
    (D) Drain the fuel tank(s) and fill with the new test fuel to the 
``tank fuel volume'' defined in Sec. 86.082-2. The average temperature 
of the dispensed fuel shall be less than 60  deg.F.
    (E) Conduct a heat build according to the procedure specified in 
Sec. 86.133-90.
    (F) The vehicle shall be placed, either by being driven or pushed, 
on a dynamometer and operated through one UDDS, specified in Sec. 86.115 
and appendix I of this part.
    (G) Following the dynamometer drive, the vehicle shall be turned off 
for 5 minutes, then restarted and allowed to idle for 1 minute. The 
vehicle shall then be turned off for 1 minute, and allowed to idle again 
for 1 minute.
    (H) After the vehicle is turned off the last time, it may be tested 
for evaporative and exhaust emissions, starting with paragraph (a) of 
this section.
    (2) For petroleum-fueled diesel, methanol-fueled diesel, and 
gaseous-fueled vehicles. The preconditioning shall consist of either of 
the following:
    (i) An initial one hour minimum soak and, one, two, or three driving 
cycles of the UDDS, as described in paragraph (c) of this section, each 
followed by a soak of at least one hour with engine off, engine 
compartment cover closed and cooling fan off. The vehicle may be driven 
off the dynamometer following each UDDS for the soak period; or
    (ii) For abnormally treated vehicles, as defined in Sec. 86.085-2, 
two Highway Fuel Economy Driving Schedules, found in appendix I of part 
600, run in immediate succession, with the road load power set at twice 
the value obtained from Sec. 86.129.
    (f)(1) Gasoline- and methanol-fueled vehicles. After completion of 
the preconditioning drive, the vehicle shall be driven off the 
dynamometer. The vehicle's fuel tank(s) shall be drained and then filled 
with test fuel, as specified in Sec. 86.113, to the ``tank fuel volume'' 
defined in Sec. 86.082-2. The vehicle shall be refueled within 1 hour 
after completion of the preconditioning drive. The fuel cap(s) shall be 
installed within 1 minute after refueling. The vehicle shall be parked 
within five minutes after refueling.
    (2) Petroleum-fueled diesel vehicles. Within five minutes after 
completion after the preconditioning drive, the vehicle shall be driven 
off the dynamometer and parked.
    (3) Gaseous-fueled vehicles. After completion of the preconditioning 
drive, the vehicle shall be driven off the dynamometer. Vehicle fuel 
tanks shall be refilled with fuel that meets the specifications in 
Sec. 86.113. Fuel tanks shall be filled to a minimum of 75% of service 
pressure for natural gas-fueled vehicles or a minimum of 75% of 
available fill volume for liquefied petroleum gas-fueled vehicles. Prior 
draining of the fuel tanks is not called for if the fuel in the tanks 
already meets the specifications in Sec. 86.113. The vehicle shall be

[[Page 466]]

parked within five minutes after refueling, or, in the absence of 
refueling, within five minutes after completion of the preconditioning 
drive.
    (g) The vehicle shall be soaked for not less than 12 hours nor more 
than 36 hours between the end of the refueling event and the beginning 
of the cold start exhaust emission test.
    (h) During the soak period for the three-diurnal test sequence 
described in Sec. 86.130-96, evaporative canisters, if the vehicle is so 
equipped, shall be preconditioned according to the following procedure. 
For vehicles with multiple canisters in a series configuration, the set 
of canisters must be preconditioned as a unit. For vehicles with 
multiple canisters in a parallel configuration, each canister must be 
preconditioned separately. If production evaporative canisters are 
equipped with a functional service port designed for vapor load or purge 
steps, the service port shall be used during testing to precondition the 
canister. In addition, for model year 1998 and later vehicles equipped 
with refueling canisters, these canisters shall be preconditioned for 
the three-diurnal test sequence according to the procedure in paragraph 
(j)(1) of this section. If a vehicle is designed to actively control 
evaporative or refueling emissions without a canister, the manufacturer 
shall devise an appropriate preconditioning procedure, subject to the 
approval of the Administrator.
    (1)(i) Prepare the evaporative emission canister for the canister 
purging and loading operation. The canister shall not be removed from 
the vehicle, unless access to the canister in its normal location is so 
restricted that purging and loading can only reasonably be accomplished 
by removing the canister from the vehicle. Special care shall be taken 
during this step to avoid damage to the components and the integrity of 
the fuel system. A replacement canister may be temporarily installed 
during the soak period while the canister from the test vehicle is 
preconditioned.
    (ii) The canister purge shall be performed with ambient air of 
humidity controlled to 5025 grains per pound of dry air. 
This may be accomplished by purging the canister in a room that is 
conditioned to this level of absolute humidity. The flow rate of the 
purge air shall be maintained at a nominal flow rate of 0.8 cfm and the 
duration shall be determined to provide a total purge volume flow 
through the canister equivalent to 300 canister bed volume exchanges. 
The bed volume is based on the volume of adsorbing material in the 
canister.
    (iii) The evaporative emission canister shall then be loaded by 
sending to the canister an amount of commercial grade butane vapors 
equivalent to 1.5 times its nominal working capacity. The canister shall 
be loaded with a mixture composed of 50 percent butane and 50 percent 
nitrogen by volume at a rate of 152 grams butane per hour. 
If the canister loading at that rate takes longer than 12 hours, a 
manufacturer may determine a new rate, based on completing the canister 
loading in no less than 12 hours. The new rate may be used for all 
subsequent canister loading according to paragraph (h) of this section. 
The time of initiation and completion of the canister loading shall be 
recorded.
    (iv) The determination of a canister's nominal working capacity 
shall be based on the average capacity of no less than five canisters 
that are in a stabilized condition.
    (A) For stabilization, each canister must be loaded no less than 10 
times and no more than 100 times to 2-gram breakthrough with a 50/50 
mixture by volume of butane and nitrogen, at a rate of 15 grams butane 
per hour. Each canister loading step must be preceded by canister 
purging with 300 canister bed volume exchanges at 0.8 cfm.
    (B) For determining working capacity, each canister must first be 
purged with 300 canister bed volume exchanges at 0.8 cfm. The working 
capacity of each canister shall be established by determining the mass 
of butane required to load the canister from the purged state so that it 
emits 2 grams of hydrocarbon vapor; the canister must be loaded with a 
50/50 mixture by volume of butane and nitrogen, at a rate of 15 grams 
butane per hour.
    (2) For methanol-fueled and flexible-fueled vehicles, canister 
preconditioning shall be performed with a fuel vapor composition 
representative of that which the vehicle would generate

[[Page 467]]

with the fuel mixture used for the current test. Manufacturers shall 
develop a procedure to precondition the evaporative canister, if the 
vehicle is so equipped, for the different fuel. The procedure shall 
represent a canister loading equivalent to that specified in paragraph 
(h)(1) of this section and shall be approved in advance by the 
Administrator.
    (i) [Reserved]
    (j) For the supplemental two-diurnal test sequence described in 
Sec. 86.130-96, one of the following methods shall be used to 
precondition evaporative canisters during the soak period specified in 
paragraph (g) of this section. For vehicles with multiple canisters in a 
series configuration, the set of canisters must be preconditioned as a 
unit. For vehicles with multiple canisters in a parallel configuration, 
each canister must be preconditioned separately. In addition, for model 
year 1998 and later vehicles equipped with refueling canisters, these 
canisters shall be preconditioned for the supplemental two-diurnal test 
sequence according to the procedure in paragraph (j)(1) of this section. 
Canister emissions are measured to determine breakthrough. Breakthrough 
is here defined as the point at which the cumulative quantity of 
hydrocarbons emitted is equal to 2 grams.
    (1) Butane loading to breakthrough. The following procedure provides 
for emission measurement in an enclosure. Breakthrough may also be 
determined by measuring the weight gain of an auxiliary evaporative 
canister connected downstream of the vehicle's canister, in which case, 
the following references to the enclosure can be ignored. The auxiliary 
canister shall be well purged prior to loading. If production 
evaporative canisters are equipped with a functional service port 
designed for vapor load or purge steps, the service port shall be used 
during testing to precondition the canister.
    (i) Prepare the evaporative/refueling emission canister for the 
canister loading operation. The canister shall not be removed from the 
vehicle, unless access to the canister in its normal location is so 
restricted that purging and loading can only reasonably be accomplished 
by removing the canister from the vehicle. Special care shall be taken 
during this step to avoid damage to the components and the integrity of 
the fuel system. A replacement canister may be temporarily installed 
during the soak period while the canister from the test vehicle is 
preconditioned.
    (ii) The evaporative emission enclosure shall be purged for several 
minutes. Warning: If at any time the concentration of hydrocarbons, of 
methanol, or of methanol and hydrocarbons exceeds 15,000 ppm C the 
enclosure should be immediately purged. This concentration provides at 
least a 4:1 safety factor against the lean flammability limit.
    (iii) The FID hydrocarbon analyzer shall be zeroed and spanned 
immediately prior to the canister loading procedure.
    (iv) If not already on, the evaporative enclosure mixing fan shall 
be turned on at this time.
    (v) Place the vehicle in a sealed enclosure and measure emissions 
with a FID.
    (vi)(A) For gasoline-fueled vehicles, load the canister with a 
mixture composed of 50 percent butane and 50 percent nitrogen by volume 
at a rate of 40 grams butane per hour.
    (B) For methanol-fueled and flexible-fueled vehicles, canister 
preconditioning shall be performed with a fuel vapor composition 
representative of that which the vehicle would generate with the fuel 
mixture used for the current test. Manufacturers shall develop a 
procedure to precondition the evaporative canister, if the vehicle is so 
equipped, for the different fuel.
    (vii) As soon as the canister reaches breakthrough, the vapor source 
shall be shut off.
    (viii) Reconnect the evaporative/refueling emission canister and 
restore the vehicle to its normal operating condition.
    (2) Load with repeated diurnal heat builds to breakthrough. The 
following procedure provides for emission measurement in an enclosure. 
Breakthrough may also be determined by measuring the weight gain of an 
auxiliary evaporative canister connected downstream of the vehicle's 
canister, in which case,

[[Page 468]]

the following references to the enclosure can be ignored. The auxiliary 
canister shall be well purged with dry air prior to loading.
    (i) The evaporative emission enclosure shall be purged for several 
minutes. Warning: If at any time the concentration of hydrocarbons, of 
methanol, or of methanol and hydrocarbons exceeds 15,000 ppm C the 
enclosure should be immediately purged. This concentration provides at 
least a 4:1 safety factor against the lean flammability limit.
    (ii) The FID hydrocarbon analyzer shall be zeroed and spanned 
immediately prior to the diurnal heat builds.
    (iii) If not already on, the evaporative enclosure mixing fan shall 
be turned on at this time.
    (iv) The fuel tank(s) of the prepared vehicle shall be drained and 
filled with test fuel, as specified in Sec. 86.113, to the ``tank fuel 
volume'' defined in Sec. 86.082-2. The average temperature of the 
dispensed fuel shall be 6012  deg.F (167 
deg.C). The fuel tank cap(s) shall be installed within 1 minute after 
refueling.
    (v) Within one hour of being refueled, the vehicle shall be placed, 
with the engine shut off, in the evaporative emission enclosure. The 
fuel tank temperature sensor shall be connected to the temperature 
recording system. A heat source, specified in Sec. 86.107-90(a)(4), 
shall be properly positioned with respect to the fuel tank(s) and 
connected to the temperature controller.
    (vi) The temperature recording system shall be started.
    (vii) The fuel may be artificially heated to the starting diurnal 
temperature.
    (viii) When the fuel temperature reaches at least 69  deg.F (21 
deg.C), immediately: turn off purge blower (if not already off); close 
and seal enclosure doors; and initiate measurement of the hydrocarbon 
level in the enclosure.
    (ix) When the fuel temperature reaches 722  deg.F 
(221  deg.C), start the diurnal heat build.
    (x) The fuel shall be heated in such a way that its temperature 
change conforms to the following function to within 4  deg.F 
(3  deg.C):

    F=To+0.4t; or


for SI units,

    C=To+(2/9)t.

Where,

F=fuel temperature,  deg.F;
C=fuel temperature,  deg.C;
t=time since beginning of test, minutes; and
To=initial temperature in  deg.F ( deg.C for SI units).

    (xi) As soon as breakthrough occurs or when the fuel temperature 
reaches 96  deg.F (36  deg.C), whichever occurs first, the heat source 
shall be turned off, the enclosure doors shall be unsealed and opened, 
and the vehicle fuel tank cap(s) shall be removed. If breakthrough has 
not occurred by the time the fuel temperature reaches 96  deg.F (36 
deg.C), the heat source shall be removed from the vehicle, the vehicle 
shall be removed (with engine still off) from the evaporative emission 
enclosure and the entire procedure outlined in paragraph (j)(2) of this 
section shall be repeated until breakthrough occurs.
    (xii) After breakthrough occurs, the fuel tank(s) of the prepared 
vehicle shall be drained and filled with test fuel, as specified in 
Sec. 86.113, to the ``tank fuel volume'' defined in Sec. 86.082-2. The 
fuel shall be stabilized to a temperature within 3  deg.F of the lab 
ambient before beginning the driving cycle for the exhaust emission 
test.
    (k) The Administrator may conduct the vehicle preparation and 
preconditioning for measurement of fuel economy or exhaust emissions 
according to the procedures specified in Secs. 86.132-90 and 86.133-90, 
in lieu of the procedures specified in this section.
    (l) Vehicles to be tested for exhaust emissions only shall be 
processed according to Secs. 86.135 through 86.137. Vehicles to be 
tested for evaporative emissions shall be processed in accordance with 
the procedures in Secs. 86.133 through 86.138, starting with 
Sec. 86.135.
    (m) Vehicles to be tested for evaporative emissions with the 
supplemental two-diurnal test sequence described in Sec. 86.130-96, 
shall proceed according to Secs. 86.135 through 86.137, followed by the 
supplemental hot soak test (see Sec. 86.138-96(k)) and the supplemental 
diurnal emission test (see Sec. 86.133-96(p)).

Sec. 86.133-90  Diurnal breathing loss test.

    (a)(1) Following vehicle preparation and vehicle preconditioning 
procedures described in Secs. 86.131 and 86.132 the test vehicle shall 
be allowed to soak for a period of not less than 12 or more than 36 
hours prior to the exhaust emission test. The diurnal test shall start 
not less than 10 or more than 35 hours after the end of the 
preconditioning procedure. The start of the exhaust test shall follow 
the end of the diurnal test within one hour.
    (2) Gasoline-fueled and methanol-fueled vehicles to be tested for 
exhaust emissions only shall undergo the diurnal heat build. Since no 
evaporative measurements are necessary, an evaporative enclosure is not 
required.
    (b) The evaporative emission enclosure shall be purged for several 
minutes immediately prior to the test.

    Note:  If at any time the concentration of hydrocarbons, of methanol 
or of methanol and hydrocarbons exceeds 15,000 ppm C the enclosure 
should be immediately purged. The concentration provides a 4:1 safety 
factor of hydrocarbons and methanol against the lean flammability limit.

    (c) The FID (or HFID) hydrocarbon analyzer shall be zeroed and 
spanned immediately prior to the test.
    (d) Impingers charged with known volumes of pure deionized water 
shall be placed in the methanol sampling system (methanol-fueled 
vehicles only).
    (e) If not already on, evaporative enclosure mixing fan shall be 
turned on at this time.
    (f) Immediately prior to the diurnal breathing loss test, the fuel 
tank(s) of the prepared vehicle shall be drained and recharged with the 
specified test fuel, Sec. 86.113, to the prescribed ``tank fuel 
volume,'' defined in Sec. 86.078-2. The temperature of the fuel prior to 
its delivery to the fuel tank shall be between 45 deg. and 60  deg.F 
(7.2  deg.C and 16  deg.C). The fuel tank cap(s) is not installed until 
the diurnal heat build begins.
    (g) The test vehicle, with the engine shut off, shall be moved into 
the evaporative emission enclosure, the test vehicle windows and luggage 
compartment(s) shall be opened, the fuel tank temperature sensor shall 
be connected to the temperature recording system, and, if required, the 
heat source shall be properly positioned with respect to the fuel 
tank(s) and/or connected to the temperature controller.
    (h) The temperature recording system shall be started.
    (i) The fuel may be artificially heated to the starting diurnal 
temperature.
    (j) When the fuel temperature recording system reaches at least 58 
deg.F (14  deg.C), immediately:
    (1) Install fuel tank cap(s).
    (2) Turn off purge blowers, if not already off at this time.
    (3) Close and seal enclosure doors.
    (k) When the fuel temperature recording system reaches 
60 deg.2  deg.F (16 deg.1.1  deg.C), 
immediately:
    (1) Analyze enclosure atmosphere for hydrocarbons and record. This 
is the initial (time = 0 minutes) hydrocarbon concentration, 
CHCi, Sec. 86.143.
    (2) Simultaneously with initiation of the hydrocarbon analysis, 
initiate collection of the methanol sample by drawing a sample from the 
enclosure through the sampling system for four minutes. This is the 
initial methanol measurement from which methanol concentration 
CCH3OHi and mass are calculated. Remove impingers and replace 
with freshly charged clean impingers which will be used to collect the 
final methanol sample.
    (3) Start diurnal heat build and record time. This commences the 
602 minute test period.
    (l) The fuel shall be heated in such a way that its temperature 
change conforms to the following function to within 3  deg.F 
(1.6  deg.C):
    (1) F = To + 0.4t.
    (2) For SI units, C = To + (2/9)t.

Where:
    (3) F = fuel temperature,  deg.F.
    (4) C = fuel temperature,  deg.C.
    (5) t = time since beginning of test, minutes.
    (6) To = initial temperature.
    After 602 minutes of heating, the fuel temperature rise 
shall be 24 deg.1  deg.F (13.4  deg.C0.5 
deg.C).
    (m) The FID hydrocarbon analyzer shall be zeroed and spanned 
immediately prior to the end of the diurnal test.
    (n) The end of the diurnal breathing loss test occurs 
602 minutes after the heat build begins, paragraph (j)(2). 
Analyze the enclosure atmosphere for

[[Page 470]]

hydrocarbons and record. This is the final (time = 60 minutes) 
hydrocarbon concentration, CHCf, Sec. 86.143. The time (or 
elapsed time) of this analysis shall be recorded.
    (o) Simultaneously with the start of the hydrocarbon analysis, 
initiate collection of the methanol sample. Sample for 
4.00.5 minutes. This is the final methanol sample.
    (p) Alternate method for methanol sampling. Since sample times of 
longer than four minutes may be necessary in order to collect an 
adequate and representative sample of methanol at the end of a test 
(when SHED concentrations are usually increasing rapidly), it may be 
necessary to rapidly collect the methanol sample in a bag and then 
bubble the bag sample through the impingers at the specified flow rate. 
The time elapsed between collection of the bag sample and flowing 
through the impingers should be minimized in order to prevent any 
losses. This alternative must be adopted if the four minute sample 
period is inadequate to collect a sample of sufficient concentration to 
allow accurate GC analysis.
    (q) Once the final methanol sample has been collected, the heat 
source shall be turned off and the enclosure doors unsealed and opened.
    (r) The heat source shall be moved away from the vehicle, if 
required, and/or disconnected from the temperature controller, the fuel 
tank temperature sensor shall be disconnected from the temperature 
recording system, the test vehicle windows and luggage compartments may 
be closed and the test vehicle, with the engine shut off, shall be 
removed from the evaporative emission enclosure.
    (s) For vehicles with multiple tanks, the largest tank shall be 
designated as the primary tank and shall be heated in accordance with 
the procedures described in paragraph (1) of this section. All other 
tanks shall be designated as auxiliary tanks and shall undergo a similar 
heat build such that the fuel temperature shall be within 3  deg.F (1.6 
deg.C) of the primary tank.

Sec. 86.133-96  Diurnal emission test.

    (a)(1) The diurnal emission test for gasoline-, methanol- and 
gaseous-fueled vehicles consists of three 24-hour test cycles following 
the hot soak test. Emissions are measured for each 24-hour cycle, with 
the highest emission level used to determine compliance with the 
standards specified in subpart A of this part. The Administrator may 
truncate a test after any 24-hour cycle without affecting the validity 
of the collected data. Sampling of emissions from the running loss and 
hot soak tests is not required as preparation for the diurnal emission 
test. The diurnal emission test may be conducted as part of either the 
three- diurnal test sequence or the supplemental two-diurnal test 
sequence, as described in Sec. 86.130-96.
    (2) For the full three-diurnal test sequence, the diurnal emission 
test outlined in paragraphs (b) through (o) of this section follows the 
high-temperature hot soak test concluded in Sec. 86.138-96(j).
    (3) For the supplemental two-diurnal test sequence, the diurnal 
emission test outlined in paragraph (p) of this section follows the 
alternate hot soak test specified in Sec. 86.138-96(k). This test is not 
required for gaseous-fueled vehicles.
    (b) The test vehicle shall be soaked for not less than 6 hours nor 
more than 36 hours between the end of the hot soak test and the start of 
the diurnal emission test. For at least the last 6 hours of this period, 
the vehicle shall be soaked at 72 deg.3  deg.F. The 
temperature tolerance may be waived for up to 10 minutes to allow 
purging of the enclosure or transporting the vehicle into the enclosure 
at the beginning of the diurnal emission test.
    (c) The test vehicle shall be exposed to ambient temperatures cycled 
according to the profile specified in Sec. 86.133 and appendix II of 
this part.
    (1) Temperatures measured with the underbody temperature sensor 
shall follow the profile with a maximum deviation of 3  deg.F at any 
time and an average temperature deviation not to exceed 2  deg.F, where 
the average deviation is calculated using the absolute value

[[Page 471]]

of each measured deviation. In addition, the temperature from the 
sidewall temperature sensors shall follow the profile with a maximum 
deviation of 5  deg.F at any time.
    (2) Ambient temperatures shall be measured at least every minute. 
Temperature cycling shall begin when time=0 minutes, as specified in 
paragraph (i)(5) of this section.
    (d) The diurnal enclosure shall be purged for several minutes prior 
to the test. Warning: If at any time the concentration of hydrocarbons, 
of methanol or of methanol and hydrocarbons exceeds 15,000 ppm C the 
enclosure should be immediately purged. This concentration provides at 
least a 4:1 safety factor against the lean flammability limit.
    (e) The test vehicle, with the engine shut off and the test vehicle 
windows and luggage compartment(s) opened, shall be moved into the 
diurnal enclosure.
    (f)-(g) [Reserved]
    (h) Prior to sampling for emissions and throughout the period of 
cycled ambient temperatures, the mixing fan(s) shall circulate the air 
at a rate of 0.80.2 cfm per cubic foot of ambient volume. 
The mixing fan(s), plus any additional fans if needed, shall also 
maintain a minimum wind speed of 5 mph (8 km/hr) under the fuel tank of 
the test vehicle. The Administrator may adjust fan speed and location to 
ensure sufficient air circulation around the fuel tank. The wind speed 
requirement may be satisfied by consistently using a fan configuration 
that has been demonstrated to maintain a broad 5-mph air flow in the 
vicinity of the vehicle's fuel tank, subject to verification by the 
Administrator.
    (i) Emission sampling may begin as follows:
    (1) The FID (or HFID) hydrocarbon analyzer shall be zeroed and 
spanned immediately prior to the sampling.
    (2) Impingers charged with known volumes of pure deionized water 
shall be placed in the methanol sampling system (methanol-fueled 
vehicles only).
    (3) Turn off purge blowers (if not already off).
    (4) Close and seal enclosure doors (if not already closed and 
sealed).
    (5) Within 10 minutes of closing and sealing the doors, analyze 
enclosure atmosphere for hydrocarbons and record. This is the initial 
(time=0 minutes) hydrocarbon concentration, CHCi, required in 
Sec. 86.143. Hydrocarbon emissions may be sampled continuously during 
the test period.
    (6) Analyze the enclosure atmosphere for methanol, if applicable, 
and record. The methanol sampling must start simultaneously with the 
initiation of the hydrocarbon analysis and continue for 
4.00.5 minutes. This is the initial methanol concentration, 
CCH3OHi, required in Sec. 86.143. Record the time 
elapsed during this analysis. If the 4-minute sample period is 
inadequate to collect a sample of sufficient concentration to allow 
accurate GC analysis, rapidly collect the methanol sample in a bag and 
then bubble the bag sample through the impingers at the specified flow 
rate. The time elapsed between collection of the bag sample and flow 
through the impingers should be minimized to prevent any losses. If the 
test is conducted in a fixed-volume enclosure that allows airflow into 
and out of the enclosure, the effect of makeup air dilution must be 
factored into the analysis.
    (j) If testing indicates that a vehicle design may result in fuel 
temperature responses during enclosure testing that are not 
representative of in-use summertime conditions, the Administrator may 
adjust air circulation and temperature during the test as needed to 
ensure that the test sufficiently duplicates the vehicle's in-use 
experience.
    (k) The FID (or HFID) hydrocarbon analyzer shall be zeroed and 
spanned immediately prior to the end of each emission sampling period.
    (l) Fresh impingers shall be installed in the methanol collection 
system immediately prior to the end of each emission measurement, if 
applicable.
    (m) The end of the first, second, and third emission sampling period 
shall occur 14406, 28806, 43206 
minutes, respectively, after the beginning of the initial sampling, as 
specified in paragraph (i)(5) of this section.
    (1) At the end of each emission sampling period, analyze the 
enclosure atmosphere for hydrocarbons and record.

[[Page 472]]

This is the final hydrocarbon concentration, CHCf, required 
in Sec. 86.143. The emission measurement at the end of each period 
becomes the initial hydrocarbon concentration, CHCi, of the 
next emission sampling period.
    (2) Analyze the enclosure atmosphere for methanol, if applicable, 
and record. The methanol sampling must start simultaneously with the 
initiation of the hydrocarbon analysis and continue for 
4.00.5 minutes. This is the final (time=1440 minutes) 
methanol concentration, CCH3OHf, required in 
Sec. 86.143. Record the time elapsed during this analysis. If the 4-
minute sample period is inadequate to collect a sample of sufficient 
concentration to allow accurate GC analysis, rapidly collect the 
methanol sample in a bag and then bubble the bag sample through the 
impingers at the specified flow rate. The time elapsed between 
collection of the bag sample and flow through the impingers should be 
minimized to prevent any losses. If the test is conducted in a fixed-
volume enclosure that allows airflow into and out of the enclosure, the 
effect of makeup air dilution must be factored into the analysis.
    (n) At the end of the temperature cycling period the enclosure doors 
shall be unsealed and opened, the test vehicle windows and luggage 
compartments may be closed and the test vehicle, with the engine shut 
off, shall be removed from the enclosure.
    (o) This completes the full three-diurnal evaporative emission test 
sequence described in Sec. 86.130-96.
    (p) For the supplemental two-diurnal test sequence described in 
Sec. 86.130-96, the following steps shall be performed in lieu of the 
steps described in paragraphs (b) through (n) of this section.
    (1) For the supplemental two-diurnal test sequence, the test vehicle 
shall be soaked for not less than 6 hours nor more than 36 hours between 
the end of the hot soak test described in Sec. 86.138-96(k), and the 
start of the two-diurnal emission test. For at least the last 6 hours of 
this period, the vehicle shall be soaked at 723  deg.F.
    (2) The vehicle shall be tested for diurnal emissions according to 
the procedures specified in paragraphs (c) through (n) of this section, 
except that the test includes only two 24-hour periods. Therefore the 
end of the first and second emission sampling periods shall occur 
14406 and 28806 minutes, respectively, after the 
initial sampling.
    (3) This completes the supplemental two-diurnal test sequence for 
evaporative emission measurement.

Sec. 86.134-96  Running loss test.

    (a) Overview. Gasoline- and methanol-fueled vehicles are to be 
tested for running loss emissions during simulated high-temperature 
urban driving; this test is not required for gaseous-fueled vehicles. 
During operation, tank temperatures are controlled according to a 
prescribed profile to simulate in-use conditions. If the vehicle is 
determined to have exceeded the standard before the end of the running 
loss test, the test may be terminated without invalidating the data. The 
test can be run either in a sealed enclosure or with the point-source 
method, as specified in paragraph (g) of this section. Measurement of 
vapor temperature is optional during the running loss test; however, if 
testing by the Administrator shows that a vehicle has exceeded an 
emission standard without measurement of vapor temperatures, the 
manufacturer may, utilizing its own resources, conduct subsequent 
testing on that vehicle to determine if the exceedance is attributable 
to inadequate control of vapor temperatures.
    (b) Driving schedule. Conduct the running loss test by operating the 
test vehicle through one Urban Dynamometer Driving Schedule (UDDS), a 2-
minute idle, two New York City Cycles, another 2-minute idle, another 
UDDS, then another 2-minute idle (see Sec. 86.115 and appendix I of this 
part). Fifteen seconds after the engine starts, place the transmission 
in gear. Twenty seconds after the engine starts, begin the initial 
vehicle acceleration of the driving schedule. The transmission shall be 
operated according to the specifications of Sec. 86.128 during the 
driving cycles.
    (c) Dynamometer Operation. (1) The exhaust from the vehicle must be 
routed

[[Page 473]]

outside the test cell or enclosure. Exhaust gases may, but need not, be 
collected and sampled.
    (2) Provisions of Sec. 86.135-90(c) shall apply.
    (3) Practice runs over the prescribed driving schedule may not be 
performed at test point.
    (4) Provisions of Sec. 86.135-90 (e) and (f) shall apply.
    (5) If the dynamometer horsepower must be adjusted manually, it 
shall be set within 1 hour prior to the running loss test phase. The 
test vehicle shall not be used to make this adjustment. Dynamometers 
using automatic control of preselectable power settings may be set any 
time prior to the beginning of the emissions test.
    (6) Dynamometer roll or shaft revolutions shall be used to determine 
the actual driving distance for the running loss test, DRL, 
required in Sec. 86.143. The revolutions shall be measured on the same 
roll or shaft used for measuring the vehicle's speed.
    (7) Provisions of Sec. 86.135-90(i) shall apply.
    (8) The test run may be stopped if a warning light or gauge 
indicates that the vehicle's engine coolant has overheated.
    (d) Engine Starting and Restarting. (1) Provisions of Sec. 86.136-
90(a) shall apply.
    (2) If the vehicle does not start after the manufacturer's 
recommended cranking time (or 10 continuous seconds in the absence of a 
manufacturer's recommendation), cranking shall cease for the period 
recommended by the manufacturer (or 10 seconds in the absence of a 
manufacturer's recommendation). This may be repeated for up to three 
start attempts. If the vehicle does not start after three attempts, the 
reason for failure to start shall be determined. If failure to start is 
an operational error, the vehicle shall be rescheduled for testing, 
starting with the soak period immediately preceding the running loss 
test.
    (3) If failure to start is caused by a vehicle malfunction, 
corrective action of less than 30 minutes duration may be taken 
(according to Sec. 86.090-25), and the test continued, provided that the 
ambient conditions to which the vehicle is exposed are maintained at 
955  deg.F (353  deg.C). When the engine starts, 
the timing sequence of the driving schedule shall begin. If failure to 
start is caused by vehicle malfunction and the vehicle cannot be 
started, the test shall be voided, the vehicle removed from the 
dynamometer, and corrective action may be taken according to 
Sec. 86.090-25. The reason for the malfunction (if determined) and the 
corrective action taken shall be reported to the Administrator.
    (4) Provisions of Sec. 86.136-90(e) shall apply.
    (e) Pressure checks. No pressure checks of the evaporative system 
shall be allowed. Under no circumstances will any changes/repairs to the 
evaporative emissions control system be allowed.
    (f) Temperature stabilization. Immediately after the hot transient 
exhaust emission test, the vehicle shall be soaked in a temperature 
controlled area for a maximum of 6 hours until the fuel temperature is 
stabilized. The fuel may be heated or cooled to stabilize fuel 
temperatures, but the fuel heating rate must not exceed 5  deg.F in any 
1-hour interval during the soak period. A manufacturer may use a faster 
heating rate or a longer period for stabilizing fuel temperatures if the 
needed heating cannot be easily accomplished in the 6-hour period, 
subject to Administrator approval.
    (1) Fuel temperatures must be held at 95 3  deg.F for at 
least one hour before the start of the running loss test.
    (2) If a vehicle's fuel temperature profile has an initial 
temperature lower than 95  deg.F, as described in Sec. 86.129-
94(d)(7)(v), the fuel in the test vehicle must be stabilized to within 3 
 deg.F of that temperature for at least one hour before the start of the 
running loss test.
    (g) Running loss test. The running loss test may be conducted either 
by the enclosure method, or by the point-source method.
    (1) Enclosure method. (i) The running loss enclosure shall be purged 
for several minutes immediately prior to the test. Warning: If at any 
time the concentration of hydrocarbons, of methanol, or of methanol and 
hydrocarbons exceeds 15,000 ppm C the enclosure should be immediately 
purged. This concentration provides at least a 4:1

[[Page 474]]

safety factor against the lean flammability limit.
    (ii) The FID hydrocarbon analyzer shall be zeroed and spanned 
immediately prior to the test.
    (iii) If not already on, the running loss enclosure mixing fan(s) 
shall be turned on at this time. Throughout the test, the mixing fan(s) 
shall circulate the air at a rate of at least 1.0 cfm per cubic foot of 
ambient volume.
    (iv) The test vehicle, with the engine off, shall be moved onto the 
dynamometer in the running loss enclosure. The vehicle engine 
compartment cover shall be unlatched, but closed as much as possible, 
allowing for the air intake equipment specified in paragraph (g)(1)(vii) 
of this section. The vehicle engine compartment cover may be closed if 
alternate routing is found for the air intake equipment. Any windows, 
doors, and luggage compartments shall be closed. A window may be opened 
to direct cooling air into the passenger compartment of the vehicle, if 
the vehicle is not equipped with its own air conditioning.
    (v) Fans shall be positioned as described in Secs. 86.107-96 (d) and 
(h).
    (vi) The vehicle air conditioning system (if so equipped) shall be 
set to the ``normal'' air conditioning mode and adjusted to the minimum 
discharge air temperature and high fan speed. Vehicles equipped with 
automatic temperature controlled air conditioning systems shall be set 
to operate in ``automatic'' temperature and fan modes with the system 
set at 72  deg.F.
    (vii) Connect the air intake equipment to the vehicle, if 
applicable. This connection shall be made to minimize leakage.
    (viii) The temperature and pressure recording systems shall be 
started. Measurement of vapor temperature is optional during the running 
loss test. If vapor temperature is not measured, fuel tank pressure need 
not be measured.
    (ix) Turn off purge blowers (if not already off).
    (x) The temperature of the liquid fuel shall be monitored and 
recorded at least every 15 seconds with the temperature recording system 
specified in Sec. 86.107-96(e).
    (xi) Close and seal the enclosure doors.
    (xii) When the ambient temperature is 955  deg.F 
(353  deg.C) and the fuel has been stabilized according to 
paragraph (f) of this section, the running loss test may begin. Measure 
the initial ambient temperature and pressure.
    (A) Analyze enclosure atmosphere for hydrocarbons and record. This 
is the initial (time=0 minutes) hydrocarbon concentration, 
CHCi, required in Sec. 86.143. Hydrocarbon emissions may be 
sampled continuously during the test period.
    (B) Analyze the enclosure atmosphere for methanol, if applicable, 
and record. The methanol sampling must start simultaneously with the 
initiation of the hydrocarbon analysis and continue for 
4.00.5 minutes. This is the initial (time=0 minutes) 
methanol concentration, CCH3OHi, required in 
Sec. 86.143. Record the time elapsed during this analysis. If the 4-
minute sample period is inadequate to collect a sample of sufficient 
concentration to allow accurate GC analysis, rapidly collect the 
methanol sample in a bag and then bubble the bag sample through the 
impingers at the specified flow rate. The time elapsed between 
collection of the bag sample and flow through the impingers should be 
minimized to prevent any losses.
    (xiii) Start the engine and begin operation of the vehicle over the 
drive cycle specified in paragraph (b) of this section.
    (xiv) The ambient temperature shall be maintained at 955 
 deg.F (952  deg.F on average) during the running loss test, 
measured at the inlet to the cooling fan in front of the vehicle; it 
shall be recorded at least every 60 seconds.
    (xv) The fuel temperature during the dynamometer drive shall be 
controlled to match the fuel tank temperature profile determined in 
Sec. 86.129. Measured fuel temperatures must be within 3 
deg.F of the target profile throughout the test run. Vapor temperatures, 
if measured, must be within 5  deg.F of the target profile 
during the first 4186 seconds of the running loss test, and within 
3  deg.F for the remaining 120 seconds of the test run. For 
any vehicle complying

[[Page 475]]

with the test standards, vapor temperatures may be higher than the 
specified tolerances without invalidating test results. For testing by 
the Administrator, vapor temperatures may be lower than the specified 
tolerances without invalidating test results. If the test vehicle has 
more than one fuel tank, the temperatures for both fuel tanks shall 
follow the target profiles determined in Sec. 86.129. The control system 
shall be tuned and operated to provide smooth and continuous tank 
temperature profiles that are representative of the on-road profiles.
    (xvi) Tank pressure shall not exceed 10 inches of water at any time 
during the running loss test unless a pressurized system is used and the 
manufacturer demonstrates that vapor would not be vented to the 
atmosphere upon fuel cap removal. A vehicle may exceed the pressure 
limit for temporary periods during the running loss test, up to 10 
percent of the total driving time, provided that the vehicle has 
demonstrated conformance with the pressure limit during the entire 
outdoor driving period specified in Sec. 86.129. Measurement of fuel 
tank pressures will be considered valid only if vapor temperatures are 
measured and controlled to the tolerances specified in paragraph 
(g)(1)(xv) of this section.
    (xvii) The FID (or HFID) hydrocarbon analyzer shall be zeroed and 
spanned immediately prior the end of the test.
    (xviii) Fresh impingers shall be installed in the methanol 
collection system immediately prior to the end of the test, if 
applicable.
    (xix) The running loss test ends with the completion of the third 2-
minute idle period.
    (xx) At the end of the running loss test:
    (A) Analyze the enclosure atmosphere for hydrocarbons and record. 
This is the final hydrocarbon concentration, CHCf, required 
in Sec. 86.143.
    (B) Analyze the enclosure atmosphere for methanol, if applicable, 
and record. The methanol sampling must start prior to the end of the 
test and continue for 4.00.5 minutes. The methanol sampling 
must be completed within 2 minutes after the end of the running loss 
test. This is the final methanol concentration, 
CCH3OHf, required in Sec. 86.143. Record the time 
elapsed during this analysis. If the 4-minute sample period is 
inadequate to collect a sample of sufficient concentration to allow 
accurate GC analysis, rapidly collect the methanol sample in a bag and 
then bubble the bag sample through the impingers at the specified flow 
rate. The time elapsed between collection of the bag sample and flow 
through the impingers should be minimized to prevent any losses.
    (C) Turn off all the fans specified in Sec. 86.107-96(d). Also, the 
time that the vehicle's engine compartment cover is open for removal of 
air intake equipment, if applicable, shall be minimized to avoid loss of 
heat from the engine compartment.
    (xxi) Turn off any CVS apparatus (if not already turned off).
    (2) Point-source method. (i) The test vehicle, with the engine off, 
shall be moved onto the dynamometer. The vehicle engine compartment 
cover and any windows, doors, and luggage compartments shall be closed.
    (ii) Fans shall be positioned as described in Secs. 86.135-90(b) and 
86.107-96(d).
    (iii) The running loss vapor vent collection system shall be 
properly positioned at the potential fuel vapor vents or leaks of the 
vehicle's fuel system. Typical vapor vents for current fuel systems are 
the ports of the evaporative emission canister and the pressure relief 
vent of the fuel tank (typically integrated into the fuel tank cap).
    (iv) The running loss vapor vent collection system may be connected 
to a PDP-CVS or CFV-CVS bag collection system. Otherwise, running loss 
vapors shall be sampled continuously with analyzers meeting the 
requirements of Sec. 86.107-96(b).
    (v) Fans shall be positioned as described in Sec. 86.107-96(d).
    (vi) The vehicle air conditioning system (if so equipped) shall be 
set to the ``normal'' air conditioning mode and adjusted to the minimum 
discharge air temperature and high fan speed. Vehicles equipped with 
automatic temperature controlled air conditioning systems shall be set 
to operate in ``automatic'' temperature and fan modes with the system 
set at 72  deg.F.

[[Page 476]]

    (vii) The temperature and pressure recording systems shall be 
started. Measurement of vapor temperature is optional during the running 
loss test. If vapor temperature is not measured, fuel tank pressure need 
not be measured.
    (viii) The temperature of the liquid fuel shall be monitored and 
recorded at least every 15 seconds with the temperature recording system 
specified in Sec. 86.107-96(e).
    (ix) When the ambient temperature is 955  deg.F 
(353  deg.C) and the fuel tank temperature is 
953  deg.F the running loss test may begin.
    (x) The ambient temperature shall be maintained at 955 
deg.F (952  deg.F on average) during the running loss test, 
measured at the inlet to the cooling fan in front of the vehicle; it 
shall be recorded at least every 60 seconds.
    (xi) Fuel temperatures shall be controlled according to the 
specifications of paragraph (g)(1)(xv) of this section.
    (xii) The tank pressure requirements described in paragraph 
(g)(1)(xvi) of this section apply also to running loss testing by the 
point source method.
    (xiii) The running loss test ends with completion of the third 2-
minute idle period.
    (xiv) If emissions are collected in bags, the sample bags must be 
analyzed within 20 minutes of their respective sample collection phases, 
as described in Sec. 86.137-94(b)(15). The results of the analysis are 
used in Sec. 86.143 to calculate the mass of hydrocarbons emitted.
    (xv) At the end of the running loss test, turn off all the fans 
specified in Sec. 86.107-96(d).
    (h) Following the completion of the running loss drive, the vehicle 
may be tested for hot soak emissions as specified in Sec. 86.138-96.

Sec. 86.135-90  Dynamometer procedure.

    (a) Overview--(1) Gasoline-fueled and methanol-fueled Otto-cycle 
vehicles. The dynamometer run consists of two tests, a ``cold'' start 
test after a minimum 12-hour and a maximum 36-hour soak according to the 
provisions of Secs. 86.132 and 86.133, and a ``hot'' start test 
following the ``cold'' start test by 10 minutes. Engine startup (with 
all accessories turned off), operation over the UDDS and engine shutdown 
make a complete cold start test. Engine startup and operation over the 
first 505 seconds of the driving schedule complete the hot start test. 
The exhaust emissions are diluted with ambient air and a continuously 
proportional sample is collected for analysis during each phase. The 
composite samples collected in bags are analyzed for hydrocarbon, carbon 
monoxide, carbon dioxide, and oxides of nitrogen. A parallel sample of 
the dilution air is similarly analyzed for hydrocarbon, carbon monoxide, 
carbon dioxide, and oxides of nitrogen. Methanol and formaldehyde 
samples (exhaust and dilution air) are collected and analyzed for 
methanol-fueled vehicles (a single dilution air formaldehyde

[[Page 477]]

sample covering the total time of the test may be collected in place of 
three individual samples). Methanol and formaldehyde samples may be 
omitted for 1990 through 1994 model years when a FID calibrated on 
methanol is used.
    (2) Petroleum-fueled and methanol-fueled diesel vehicles. The 
dynamometer run consists of two tests, a ``cold'' start test after a 
minimum 12-hour and a maximum 36-hour soak according to the provisions 
of Secs. 86.132 and 86.133, and a ``hot'' start test following the 
``cold'' start by 10 minutes. Engine startup (with all accessories 
turned off), operation over the UDDS, and engine shutdown make a 
complete cold start test. Engine startup and operation over the first 
505 seconds of the driving schedule complete the hot start test. The 
exhaust emissions are diluted with ambient air in the dilution tunnel as 
shown in Figure B90-5 and Figure B90-6. Six particulate samples are 
collected on filters for weighing; the first sample plus back-up is 
collected during the first 505 seconds of the cold start test; the 
second sample plus back-up is collected during the remainder of the cold 
start test (including shutdown); the third sample plus back-up is 
collected during the hot start test. Continuous proportional samples of 
gaseous emissions are collected for analysis during each test phase. For 
petroleum-fueled vehicles, the composite samples collected in bags are 
analyzed for carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, and oxides of nitrogen. 
Hydrocarbons from petroleum-fueled vehicles are sampled and analyzed 
continuously according to the provisions of Sec. 86.110. Parallel 
samples of the dilution air are similarly analyzed for hydrocarbon, 
carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, and oxides of nitrogen. For methanol-
fueled vehicles, bag samples are collected and analyzed for 
hydrocarbons, carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, and oxides of nitrogen. 
Methanol and formaldehyde samples are taken for both exhaust emissions 
and dilution air (a single dilution air formaldehyde sample, covering 
the total test period may be collected). Methanol and formaldehyde 
samples may be omitted for 1990 through 1994 model years when an FID 
calibrated on methanol is used. Parallel bag samples of dilution air are 
analyzed for hydrocarbons, carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, and oxides 
of nitrogen.
    (b) During dynamometer operation, a fixed speed cooling fan shall be 
positioned so as to direct cooling air to the vehicle in an appropriate 
manner with the engine compartment cover open. In the case of vehicles 
with front engine compartments, the fan shall be squarely positioned 
within 12 inches (30.5 centimeters) of the vehicle. In the case of 
vehicles with rear engine compartments (or if special designs make the 
above impractical), the cooling fan shall be placed in a position to 
provide sufficient air to maintain vehicle cooling. The fan capacity 
shall normally not exceed 5300 cfm (2.50 m\3\/s). If, however, the 
manufacturer can show that during field operation the vehicle receives 
additional cooling, and that such additional cooling is needed to 
provide a representative test, the fan capacity may be increased or 
additional fans used if approved in advance by the Administrator.
    (c) The vehicle speed as measured from the dynamometer rolls shall 
be used. A speed vs. time recording, as evidence of dynamometer test 
validity, shall be supplied on request of the Administrator.
    (d) Practice runs over the prescribed driving schedule may be 
performed at test point, provided an emission sample is not taken, for 
the purpose of finding the minimum throttle action to maintain the 
proper speed-time relationship, or to permit sampling system adjustment.

    Note:  When using two-roll dynamometers a truer speed-time trace may 
be obtained by minimizing the rocking of the vehicle in the rolls; the 
rocking of the vehicle changes the tire rolling radius on each roll. 
This rocking may be minimized by restraining the vehicle horizontally 
(or nearly so) by using a cable and winch.

    (e) The drive wheel tires may be inflated up to a gauge pressure of 
45 psi (310 kPa) in order to prevent tire damage. The drive wheel tire 
pressure shall be reported with the test results.
    (f) lf the dynamometer has not been operated during the 2-hour 
period immediately preceding the test, it shall be warmed up for 15 
minutes by operating at 30 mph (48 kph) using a non-test vehicle or as 
recommended by the dynamometer manufacturer.

[[Page 478]]

    (g) If the dynamometer horsepower must be adjusted manually, it 
shall be set within 1 hour prior to the exhaust emissions test phase. 
The test vehicle shall not be used to make this adjustment. Dynamometers 
using automatic control of preselectable power settings may be set 
anytime prior to the beginning of the emissions test.
    (h) The driving distance, as measured by counting the number of 
dynamometer roll or shaft revolutions, shall be determined for the 
transient cold start, stabilized cold start, and transient hot start 
phases of the test. The revolutions shall be measured on the same roll 
or shaft used for measuring the vehicle's speed.
    (i) Four-wheel drive vehicles will be tested in a two-wheel drive 
mode of operation. Full-time four-wheel drive vehicles will have one set 
of drive wheels temporarily disengaged by the vehicle manufacturer. 
Four-wheel drive vehicles which can be manually shifted to a two-wheel 
mode will be tested in the normal on-highway two-wheel drive mode of 
operation.

Sec. 86.135-94  Dynamometer procedure.

    Section 86.135-94 includes text that specifies requirements that 
differ from Sec. 86.135-90. Where a paragraph in Sec. 86.135-90 is 
identical and applicable to Sec. 86.135-94, this may be indicated by 
specifying the corresponding paragraph and the statement ``[Reserved]. 
For guidance see Sec. 86.135-90.'' Where a corresponding paragraph of 
Sec. 86.135-90 is not applicable, this is indicated by the statement 
``[Reserved].''
    (a) Overview. The dynamometer run consists of two tests, a ``cold'' 
start test, after a minimum 12-hour and a maximum 36-hour soak according 
to the provisions of Secs. 86.132 and 86.133, and a ``hot'' start test 
following the ``cold'' start by 10 minutes. Engine startup (with all 
accessories turned off), operation over the UDDS and engine shutdown 
make a complete cold start test. Engine startup and operation over the 
first 505 seconds of the driving schedule complete the hot start test. 
The exhaust emissions are diluted with ambient air in the dilution 
tunnel as shown in Figure B94-5 and Figure B94-6. A dilution tunnel is 
not required for testing vehicles waived from the requirement to measure 
particulates. Six particulate samples are collected on filters for 
weighing; the first sample plus backup is collected during the first 505 
seconds of the cold start test; the second sample plus backup is 
collected during the remainder of the cold start test (including 
shutdown); the third sample plus backup is collected during the hot 
start test. Continuous proportional samples of gaseous emissions are 
collected for analysis during each test phase. For gasoline-fueled, 
natural gas-fueled and liquefied petroleum gas-fueled Otto-cycle 
vehicles, the composite samples collected in bags are analyzed for THC, 
CO, CO2, CH4 and NOX. For petroleum-
fueled diesel-cycle vehicles (optional for natural gas-fueled, liquefied 
petroleum gas-fueled and methanol-fueled diesel-cycle vehicles), THC is 
sampled and analyzed continuously according to the provisions of 
Sec. 86.110. Parallel samples of the dilution air are similarly analyzed 
for THC, CO, CO2, CH4 and NOX. For 
natural gas-fueled, liquefied petroleum gas-fueled and methanol-fueled 
vehicles, bag samples are collected and analyzed for THC (if not sampled 
continuously), CO, CO2, CH4 and NOX. 
For methanol-fueled vehicles, methanol and formaldehyde samples are 
taken for both exhaust emissions and dilution air (a single dilution air 
formaldehyde sample, covering the total test period may be collected). 
Parallel bag samples of dilution air are analyzed for THC, CO, 
CO2, CH4 and NOX. Methanol and 
formaldehyde samples may be omitted for 1990 through 1994 model years 
when a FID calibrated on methanol is used.
    (b) through (i) [Reserved]. For guidance see Sec. 86.135-90.

Sec. 86.136-90  Engine starting and restarting.

    (a) Otto-cycle vehicles. Paragraph (a) of this section applies to 
Otto-cycle vehicles.
    (1) The engine shall be started according to the manufacturer's 
recommended starting procedures in the owner's manual. The initial 20-
second idle period shall begin when the engine starts.

[[Page 479]]

    (2) Choke operation: (i) Vehicles equipped with automatic chokes 
shall be operated according to the manufacturer's operating instructions 
in the owner's manual, including choke setting and ``kick-down'' from 
cold fast idle.
    (ii) Vehicles equipped with manual chokes shall be operated 
according to the manufacturer's operating instructions in the owner's 
manual.
    (3) The transmission shall be placed in gear 15 seconds after the 
engine is started. If necessary, braking may be employed to keep the 
drive wheels from turning.
    (4) The operator may use the choke, accelerator pedal, etc., where 
necessary to keep the engine running.
    (5) If the manufacturer's operating instructions in the owner's 
manual do not specify a warm engine starting procedure, the engine 
(automatic and manual-choke engines) shall be started by depressing the 
accelerator pedal about half way and cranking the engine until it 
starts.
    (b) Diesel vehicles. The engine shall be started according to the 
manufacturers recommended starting procedures in the owners manual. The 
initial 20-second idle period shall begin when the engine starts. The 
transmission shall be placed in gear 15 seconds after the engine is 
started. If necessary, braking may be employed to keep the drive wheels 
from turning.
    (c) If the vehicle does not start after the manufacturer's 
recommended cranking time (or 10 continuous seconds in the absence of a 
manufacturer's recommendation), cranking shall cease for the period 
recommended by the manufacturer (or 10 seconds in the absence of a 
manufacturer's recommendation). This may be repeated for up to three 
start attempts. If the vehicle does not start after three attempts, the 
reason for failure to start shall be determined. The gas flow measuring 
device on the constant volume sampler (usually a revolution counter) or 
CFV (and the hydrocarbon integrator and particulate sampling system when 
testing petroleum-fueled diesel vehicles and the particulate sampling 
system when testing methanol-fueled diesel vehicles, see Sec. 86.137) 
shall be turned off and the sampler selector valves, including the 
methanol sampler, placed in the ``standby'' position during this 
diagnostic period. In addition, either the CVS should be turned off, or 
the exhaust tube disconnected from the tailpipe during the diagnostic 
period. If failure to start is an operational error, the vehicle shall 
be rescheduled for testing from a cold start.
    (d) If the engine ``false starts'' the operator shall repeat the 
recommended starting procedure (such as resetting the choke, etc.).
    (e) Stalling: (1) If the engine stalls during an idle period, the 
engine shall be restarted immediately and the test continued. If the 
engine cannot be started soon enough to allow the vehicle to follow the 
next acceleration as prescribed, the driving schedule indicator shall be 
stopped. When the vehicle restarts, the driving schedule indicator shall 
be reactivated.
    (2) If the engine stalls during some operating mode other than idle, 
the driving schedule indicator shall be stopped, the vehicle shall then 
be restarted and accelerated to the speed required at that point in the 
driving schedule and the test continued. During acceleration to this 
point, shifting shall be performed in accordance with Sec. 86.128.
    (3) If the vehicle will not restart within one minute, the test 
shall be voided, the vehicle removed from the dynamometer, corrective 
action taken, and the vehicle rescheduled for test. The reason for the 
malfunction (if determined) and the corrective action taken shall be 
reported to the Administrator.

Sec. 86.137-90  Dynamometer test run, gaseous and particulate emissions.

    (a) General--(1) Gasoline-fueled and methanol-fueled Otto-cycle 
vehicles. The vehicle shall be allowed to stand with the engine turned 
off for a period of not less than 12 hours or more than 36 hours before 
the cold start exhaust emission test. The cold start exhaust test shall 
follow the diurnal breathing loss test by not more than one hour. The 
vehicle shall be stored prior to the

[[Page 480]]

emission test in such a manner that precipitation (e.g., rain or dew) 
does not occur on the vehicle. The complete dynamometer test consists of 
a cold start drive of 7.5 miles (12.1 km) and simulates a hot start 
drive of 7.5 miles (12.1 km). The vehicle is allowed to stand on the 
dynamometer during the 10 minute time period between the cold and hot 
start tests. The cold start test is divided into two periods. The first 
period, representing the cold start ``transient'' phase, terminates at 
the end of the deceleration which is scheduled to occur at 505 seconds 
of the driving schedule. The second period, representing the 
``stabilized'' phase, consists of the remainder of the driving schedule 
including engine shutdown. The hot start test, similarly, consists of 
two periods. The first period, representing the hot start ``transient'' 
phase, terminates at the same point in driving schedule as the first 
period of the cold start test. The second period of the hot start test, 
``stabilized'' phase, is assumed to be identical to the second period of 
the cold start test. Therefore, the hot start test terminates after the 
first period (505 seconds) is run.
    (2) Petroleum-fueled and methanol-fueled diesel vehicles. The 
vehicle shall be allowed to stand with the engine turned off for a 
period of not less than 12 hours or more than 36 hours before the cold 
start exhaust emission test. The vehicle shall be stored prior to the 
emission test in such a manner that precipitation (e.g., rain or dew) 
does not occur on the vehicle. The complete dynamometer test consists of 
a cold start drive of 7.5 miles (12.1 km), and simulates a hot start 
drive of 7.5 miles (l2.1 km). The vehicle is allowed to stand on the 
dynamometer during the 10 minute time period between the cold and hot 
start tests. The cold start test is divided into two periods. The first 
period, representing the cold start ``transient'' phase, terminates at 
the end of the deceleration which is scheduled to occur at 505 seconds 
of the driving schedule. The second period, representing the 
``stabilized'' phase, consists of the remainder of the driving schedule 
including engine shutdown. The hot start test, similarly, consists of 
two periods. The first period, representing the start of the 
``transient'' phase, terminates at the same point in the driving 
schedule as the first period of the cold start test. The second period 
of the hot start test, ``stabilized'' phase, is assumed to be identical 
to the second period of the cold start test. Therefore, the hot start 
test terminates after the first period (505 seconds) is run.
    (b) The following steps shall be taken for each test:
    (1) Place drive wheels of vehicle on dynamometer without starting 
engine.
    (2) Open the vehicle engine compartment cover and position the 
cooling fan.
    (3) For all vehicles, with the sample selector valves in the 
``standby'' position, connect evacuated sample collection bags to the 
dilute exhaust and dilution air sample collection systems.
    (4) For methanol-fueled vehicles, with the sample selector valves in 
the ``standby'' position, insert fresh sample collection impingers into 
the methanol sample collection system, the formaldehyde sample 
collection system and fresh impingers (or capsules for formaldehyde) 
into the dilution air sample collection systems for methanol and 
formaldehyde (may be omitted for 1990 through 1994 model years).
    (5) Start the CVS (if not already on), the sample pumps (except the 
diesel particulate sample pump, if applicable), the temperature 
recorder, the vehicle cooling fan, and the heated hydrocarbon analysis 
recorder (diesels only). (The heat exchanger of the constant volume 
sampler, if used, petroleum-fueled diesel hydrocarbon analyzer 
continuous sample line and filter, methanol-fueled vehicle hydrocarbon, 
methanol and formaldehyde sample lines, if applicable, should be 
preheated to their respective operating temperatures before the test 
begins.)
    (6) Adjust the sample flow rates to the desired flow rate and set 
the gas flow measuring devices to zero.
    (i) For gaseous bag samples (except hydrocarbon samples), the 
minimum flow rate is 0.17 cfm (0.08 1/sec).
    (ii) For hydrocarbon samples, the minimum FID (or HFID in the case 
of diesel- and methanol-fueled Otto-cycle vehicles) flow rate is 0.066 
cfm (0.031 1/sec).

[[Page 481]]

    (iii) For methanol samples, the minimum flow rate is 0.14 cfm (0.067 
1/sec).
    (iv) For formaldehyde samples, the minimum flow rate is 0.036 cfm 
(0.017 l/s) with capsule collector and 0.14 cfm (0.067 l/s) with 
impinger.

    Note:  CFV sample flow rate is fixed by the venturi design.

    (7) Attach the exhaust tube to the vehicle tailpipe(s).
    (8) Carefully install a particulate sample filter into each of the 
filter holders for diesel vehicle tests. The filters must be handled 
only with forceps or tongs. Rough or abrasive filter handling will 
result in erroneous weight determination.
    (9) Start the gas flow measuring device, position the sample 
selector valves to direct the sample flow into the ``transient'' exhaust 
sample bag, the ``transient'' methanol exhaust sample, the ``transient'' 
formaldehyde exhaust sample, the ``transient'' dilution air sample bag, 
the ``transient'' methanol dilution air sample and the ``transient'' 
formaldehyde dilution air sample (turn on the petroleum-fueled diesel 
hydrocarbon analyzer system integrator, mark the recorder chart, start 
particulate sample pump No. 1, and record both gas meter or flow 
measurement instrument readings, if applicable), turn the key on, and 
start cranking the engine.
    (10) Fifteen seconds after the engine starts, place the transmission 
in gear.
    (11) Twenty seconds after the engine starts, begin the initial 
vehicle acceleration of the driving schedule.
    (12) Operate the vehicle according to the Urban Dynamometer Driving 
Schedule (Sec. 86.115).

    Note:  During diesel vehicle testing, adjust the flow rate through 
the particulate sample probe to maintain a constant value within 
5 percent of the set flow rate. Record the average 
temperature and pressure at the gas meter or flow instrument inlet. If 
the set flow rate cannot be maintained because of high particulate 
loading on the filter, the test shall be terminated. The test shall be 
rerun using a lower flow rate, or larger diameter filter, or both.

    (13) At the end of the deceleration which is scheduled to occur at 
505 seconds, simultaneously switch the sample flows from the 
``transient'' bags and samples to the ``stabilized'' bags and samples, 
switch off gas flow measuring device No. 1, switch off the No. 1 
petroleum-fueled diesel hydrocarbon integrator and the No. 1 particulate 
sample pump, mark the petroleum-fueled diesel hydrocarbon recorder 
chart, and close valves isolating particulate filter No. 1, if 
applicable, and start gas flow measuring device No. 2, and start the 
petroleum-fueled diesel hydrocarbon integrator No. 2 and the No. 2 
particulate sample pump and open valves isolating particulate filter No. 
2, if applicable. Before the acceleration which is scheduled to occur at 
510 seconds, record the measured roll or shaft revolutions and reset the 
counter or switch to a second counter. As soon as possible transfer the 
``transient'' exhaust and dilution air samples to the analytical system 
and process the samples according to Sec. 86.140 obtaining a stabilized 
reading of the bag exhaust sample on all analyzers within 20 minutes of 
the end of the sample collection phase of the test. Obtain methanol and 
formaldehyde sample analyses, if applicable, within 24 hours of the end 
of the sample collection phase of the test.
    (14) Turn the engine off 2 seconds after the end of the last 
deceleration (at 1,369 seconds).
    (15) Five seconds after the engine stops running, simultaneously 
turn off gas flow measuring device No. 2 and if applicable, turn off the 
petroleum-fueled diesel hydrocarbon integrator No. 2, mark the 
hydrocarbon recorder chart, turn off the No. 2 particulate sample pump 
and close the valves isolating particulate filter No. 2, and position 
the sample selector valves to the ``standby'' position (and open the 
valves isolating particulate filter No. 1, if applicable). Record the 
measured roll or shaft revolutions (both gas meter or flow measurement 
instrumentation readings), and re-set the counter. As soon as possible, 
transfer the ``stabilized'' exhaust and dilution air samples to the 
analytical system and process the samples according to Sec. 86.140, 
obtaining a stabilized reading of the exhaust bag sample on all 
analyzers within 20 minutes of the end of the sample collection phase of 
the test. Obtain methanol and formaldehyde sample analyses, if 
applicable, within 24 hours of the end of the sample period.

[[Page 482]]

If applicable, carefully remove both pairs of particulate sample filters 
from their respective holders, and place each in a separate petri dish, 
and cover.
    (16) Immediately after the end of the sample period, turn off the 
cooling fan and close the engine compartment cover.
    (17) Turn off the CVS or disconnect the exhaust tube from the 
tailpipe(s) of the vehicle.
    (18) Repeat the steps in paragraphs (b)(2) through (b)(2) of this 
section for the hot start test, except only two evacuated sample bags, 
two methanol sample impingers, two formaldehyde sample impingers, and 
one pair of particulate sample filters, as appropriate, are required. 
The step in paragraph (b)(9) of this section shall begin between 9 and 
11 minutes after the end of the sample period for the cold start test.
    (19) At the end of the deceleration which is scheduled to occur at 
505 seconds, simultaneously turn off gas flow measuring device No. 1 
(and the petroleum-fueled diesel hydrocarbon integrator No. 1, mark the 
petroleum-fueled diesel hydrocarbon recorder chart and turn off the No. 
1 particulate sample pump, if applicable) and position the sample 
selector valve to the ``standby'' position. (Engine shutdown is not part 
of the hot start test sample period.) Record the measured roll or shaft 
revolutions (and the No. 1 gas meter reading or flow measurement 
instrument). (Carefully remove the third pair of particulate sample 
filters from its holder and place in a clean petri dish and cover, if 
applicable.)
    (20) As soon as possible, transfer the hot start ``transient'' 
exhaust and dilution air samples to the analytical system and process 
the samples according to Sec. 86.140, obtaining a stabilized reading of 
the exhaust bag sample on all analyzers within 20 minutes of the end of 
the sample collection phase of the test. Obtain methanol and 
formaldehyde sample analyses, if applicable, within 24 hours of the end 
of the sample period. (If it is not possible to perform analysis on the 
methanol and formaldehyde samples, within 24 hours, the samples should 
be stored in a dark cold (4-10  deg.C) environment until analysis. The 
samples should be analyzed within fourteen days.)
    (21) As soon as possible, and in no case longer than one hour after 
the end of the hot start phase of the test, transfer the six particulate 
filters to the weighing chamber for post-test conditioning, if 
applicable.
    (22) Disconnect the exhaust tube from the vehicle tailpipe(s) and 
drive the vehicle from dynamometer.
    (23) The CVS or CFV may be turned off, if desired.
    (24) Vehicles to be tested for evaporative emissions will proceed 
according to Sec. 86.138. For all others this completes the test 
sequence.

Sec. 86.137-94  Dynamometer test run, gaseous and particulate emissions.

    Section 86.137-94 includes text that specifies requirements that 
differ from Sec. 86.137-90. Where a paragraph in Sec. 86.137-90 is 
identical and applicable to Sec. 86.137-94, this may be indicated by 
specifying the corresponding paragraph and the statement ``[Reserved]. 
For guidance see Sec. 86.137-90.'' Where a corresponding paragraph of 
Sec. 86.137-90 is not applicable, this is indicated by the statement 
``[Reserved].''
    (a) General. The dynamometer run consists of two tests, a cold start 
test, after a minimum 12-hour and a maximum 36-hour soak according to 
the provisions of Sec. 86.132, and a hot start test following the cold 
start test by 10 minutes. The vehicle shall be stored prior to the 
emission test in such a manner that precipitation (e.g., rain or dew) 
does not occur on the vehicle. The complete dynamometer test consists of 
a cold start drive of 7.5 miles (12.1 km) and simulates a hot start 
drive of 7.5 miles (12.1 km). The vehicle is allowed to stand on the 
dynamometer during the 10 minute time period between the cold and hot 
start tests. The cold start test is divided into two periods. The first 
period, representing the cold start ``transient'' phase, terminates at 
the end of the deceleration which is scheduled to occur at 505 seconds 
of the driving schedule. The second period, representing the 
``stabilized'' phase, consists of the remainder of the driving schedule 
including engine shutdown.

[[Page 483]]

The hot start test, similarly, consists of two periods. The first 
period, representing the hot start ``transient'' phase, terminates at 
the same point in driving schedule as the first period of the cold start 
test. The second period of the hot start test, ``stabilized'' phase, is 
assumed to be identical to the second period of the cold start test. 
Therefore, the hot start test terminates after the first period (505 
seconds) is run.
    (b) The following steps shall be taken for each test:
    (1) Place drive wheels of vehicle on dynamometer without starting 
engine.
    (2) Open the vehicle engine compartment cover and position the 
cooling fan.
    (3) For all vehicles, with the sample selector valves in the 
``standby'' position, connect evacuated sample collection bags to the 
dilute exhaust and dilution air sample collection systems.
    (4) For methanol-fueled vehicles, with the sample selector valves in 
the ``standby'' position, insert fresh sample collection impingers into 
the methanol sample collection system, fresh impingers or a fresh 
cartridge into the formaldehyde sample collection system and fresh 
impingers (or a single cartridge for formaldehyde) into the dilution air 
sample collection systems for methanol and formaldehyde (background 
measurements of methanol and formaldehyde may be omitted and 
concentrations assumed to be zero for calculations in Sec. 86.144).
    (5) Start the CVS (if not already on), the sample pumps (except the 
particulate sample pump, if applicable), the temperature recorder, the 
vehicle cooling fan, and the heated THC analysis recorder (diesel-cycle 
only). (The heat exchanger of the constant volume sampler, if used, 
petroleum-fueled diesel-cycle THC analyzer continuous sample line and 
filter, methanol-fueled vehicle THC, methanol and formaldehyde sample 
lines, if applicable, should be preheated to their respective operating 
temperatures before the test begins).
    (6) Adjust the sample flow rates to the desired flow rate and set 
the gas flow measuring devices to zero.
    (i) For gaseous bag samples (except THC samples), the minimum flow 
rate is 0.17 cfm (0.08 1/sec).
    (ii) For THC samples, the minimum FID (or HFID in the case of 
diesel-cycle and methanol-fueled Otto-cycle vehicles) flow rate is 0.066 
cfm (0.031 1/sec).
    (iii) For methanol samples, the flow rates shall be set such that 
the system meets the design criteria of Sec. 86.109 and Sec. 86.110. For 
samples in which the concentration in the primary impinger exceeds 0.5 
mg/l, it is recommended that the mass of methanol collected in the 
secondary impinger not exceed ten percent of the total mass collected. 
For samples in which the concentration in the primary impinger does not 
exceed 0.5 mg/l, analysis of the secondary impingers is not necessary.
    (iv) For formaldehyde samples, the flow rates shall be set such that 
the system meets the design criteria of Sec. 86.109 and Sec. 86.110. For 
impinger samples in which the concentration of formaldehyde in the 
primary impinger exceeds 0.1 mg/l, it is recommended that the mass of 
formaldehyde collected in the secondary impinger not exceed ten percent 
of the total mass collected. For samples in which the concentration in 
the primary impinger does not exceed 0.1 mg/l, analysis of the secondary 
impingers is not necessary.
    (7) Attach the exhaust tube to the vehicle tailpipe(s).
    (8) Carefully install a particulate sample filter into each of the 
filter holders. The filters must be handled only with forceps or tongs. 
Rough or abrasive filter handling will result in erroneous weight 
determination.
    (9) Start the gas flow measuring device, position the sample 
selector valves to direct the sample flow into the ``transient'' exhaust 
sample bag, the ``transient'' methanol exhaust sample, the ``transient'' 
formaldehyde exhaust sample, the ``transient'' dilution air sample bag, 
the ``transient'' methanol dilution air sample and the ``transient'' 
formaldehyde dilution air sample (turn on the petroleum-fueled diesel-
cycle THC analyzer system integrator, mark the recorder chart, start 
particulate sample pump No. 1, and record both gas meter or flow 
measurement instrument readings, if applicable), turn the key on, and 
start cranking the engine.
    (10) Fifteen seconds after the engine starts, place the transmission 
in gear.

[[Page 484]]

    (11) Twenty seconds after the engine starts, begin the initial 
vehicle acceleration of the driving schedule.
    (12) Operate the vehicle according to the Urban Dynamometer Driving 
Schedule (Sec. 86.115).

    Note:  During particulate testing, adjust the flow rate through the 
particulate sample probe to maintain a constant value within 
5 percent of the set flow rate. Record the average 
temperature and pressure at the gas meter or flow instrument inlet. If 
the set flow rate cannot be maintained because of high particulate 
loading on the filter, the test shall be terminated. The test shall be 
rerun using a lower flow rate, or larger diameter filter, or both.

    (13) At the end of the deceleration which is scheduled to occur at 
505 seconds, simultaneously switch the sample flows from the 
``transient'' bags and samples to the ``stabilized'' bags and samples, 
switch off gas flow measuring device No. 1, switch off the No. 1 
petroleum-fueled diesel hydrocarbon integrator and the No. 1 particulate 
sample pump, mark the petroleum-fueled diesel hydrocarbon recorder 
chart, and close valves isolating particulate filter No. 1, if 
applicable, start gas flow measuring device No. 2, and start the 
petroleum-fueled diesel hydrocarbon integrator No. 2 and the No. 2 
particulate sample pump and open valves isolating particulate filter No. 
2, if applicable. Before the acceleration which is scheduled to occur at 
510 seconds, record the measured roll or shaft revolutions and reset the 
counter or switch to a second counter. As soon as possible transfer the 
``transient'' exhaust and dilution air samples to the analytical system 
and process the samples according to Sec. 86.140 obtaining a stabilized 
reading of the bag exhaust sample on all analyzers within 20 minutes of 
the end of the sample collection phase of the test. Obtain methanol and 
formaldehyde sample analyses, if applicable, within 24 hours of the end 
of the sample collection phase of the test.
    (14) Turn the engine off 2 seconds after the end of the last 
deceleration (at 1,369 seconds).
    (15) Five seconds after the engine stops running, simultaneously 
turn off gas flow measuring device No. 2 and if applicable, turn off the 
hydrocarbon integrator No. 2, mark the hydrocarbon recorder chart, turn 
off the No. 2 particulate sample pump and close the valves isolating 
particulate filter No. 2, and position the sample selector valves to the 
``standby'' position (and open the valves isolating particulate filter 
No. 1, if applicable). Record the measured roll or shaft revolutions 
(both gas meter or flow measurement instrumentation readings), and reset 
the counter. As soon as possible, transfer the ``stabilized'' exhaust 
and dilution air samples to the analytical system and process the 
samples according to Sec. 86.140, obtaining a stabilized reading of the 
exhaust bag sample on all analyzers within 20 minutes of the end of the 
sample collection phase of the test. Obtain methanol and formaldehyde 
sample analyses, if applicable, within 24 hours of the end of the sample 
period. (If it is not possible to perform analysis on the methanol and 
formaldehyde samples within 24 hours, the samples should be stored in a 
dark cold (4-10  deg.C) environment until analysis. The samples should 
be analyzed within fourteen days.) If applicable, carefully remove both 
pairs of particulate sample filters from their respective holders, and 
place each in a separate petri dish, and cover.

Sec. 86.138-90  Hot-soak test.

    The hot-soak evaporative emission test shall be conducted 
immediately following the hot transient exhaust emission test.
    (a) Prior to the completion of the hot-start transient exhaust 
emission sampling period, the evaporative emission enclosure shall be 
purged for several minutes.
    (b) The enclosure doors shall be closed and sealed within two 
minutes of engine shutdown and within seven minutes after the end of the 
exhaust emission test. The steps after the end of the driving cycle 
should be done as quickly as possible to minimize the time needed to 
start the hot soak test.
    (c) Fresh impingers shall be installed in the methanol sample 
collection system immediately prior to the start of the test, if 
applicable.
    (d) If not already on, the evaporative enclosure mixing fan shall be 
turned on at this time.
    (e) Upon completion of the hot transient exhaust emission sampling 
period, the vehicle engine compartment cover shall be closed, the 
cooling fan shall be moved, the vehicle shall be disconnected from the 
dynamometer and exhaust sampling system, and then driven at minimum 
throttle to the vehicle entrance of the enclosure.
    (f) The vehicle's engine must be stopped before any part of the 
vehicle enters the enclosure. The vehicle may be pushed or coasted into 
the enclosure.
    (g) The test vehicle windows and luggage compartments shall be 
opened, if not already open.
    (h) The temperature recording system shall be started and the time 
of engine shut off shall be noted on the evaporative emission 
hydrocarbon recording system.
    (i) The enclosure doors shall be closed and sealed within two 
minutes of engine shutdown and within five minutes after the end of the 
exhaust emission test.
    (j) The 600.5 minute hot soak begins when the enclosure 
doors are sealed. The enclosure atmosphere shall be analyzed for 
hydrocarbon and recorded. This is initial (time = 0 minutes) hydrocarbon 
concentration, CHCi, for use in calculating evaporative 
losses, see Sec. 86.143. The ``zero'' time methanol sample shall be 
collected starting at the same time as the hydrocarbon analysis is 
started. Sampling should continue for four minutes.
    (k) The test vehicle shall be permitted to soak for a period of one 
hour in the enclosure.
    (l) The FID (or HFID) hydrocarbon analyzer shall be zeroed and 
spanned immediately prior to the end of the test.
    (m) Fresh impingers shall be installed in the methanol collection 
system immediately prior to the end of the test, if applicable.
    (n) At the end of the 600.5 minute test period, again 
analyze the enclosure atmosphere for hydrocarbons and methanol, as 
described in Sec. 86.l38-90(j), and record time. These analyses provide 
the final (time = 60 minutes) hydrocarbon concentration, 
CHCf, and the final methanol level for use in calculating 
evaporative losses, see Sec. 86.143. This operation completes the 
evaporative emission measurement procedure.
    (o) Alternate method for methanol sampling. Since sample times of 
longer than four minutes may be necessary in order to collect an 
adequate and representative sample of methanol at the end of a test 
(when SHED concentrations are usually increasing rapidly), it may be 
necessary to rapidly collect the methanol sample in a bag and then 
bubble the bag sample through the impingers at the specified flow rate. 
The time elapsed between collection of the bag sample and flowing 
through the impingers should be minimized in order to prevent any 
losses. This alternative must be adopted if the four minute sample 
period is inadequate to collect a sample of sufficient concentration to 
allow accurate GC analysis.

Sec. 86.138-96  Hot soak test.

    (a)(1) Gasoline- and methanol-fueled vehicles. For gasoline- and 
methanol-

[[Page 486]]

fueled vehicles, the hot soak test shall be conducted immediately 
following the running loss test. However, sampling of emissions from the 
running loss test is not required as preparation for the hot soak test.
    (2) Gaseous-fueled vehicles. Since gaseous-fueled vehicles are not 
required to perform a running loss test, the hot soak test shall be 
conducted within seven minutes after completion of the hot start exhaust 
test.
    (b) The hot soak test may be conducted in the running loss enclosure 
as a continuation of that test or in a separate enclosure.
    (1) If the hot soak test is conducted in the running loss enclosure, 
the driver may exit the enclosure after the running loss test. If 
exiting, the driver should use the personnel door described in 
Sec. 86.107-96(a)(2), exiting as quickly as possible with a minimum 
disturbance to the system. The final hydrocarbon and methanol 
concentration for the running loss test, measured in Sec. 86.134-
96(g)(1)(xx), shall be the initial hydrocarbon and methanol 
concentration (time=0 minutes) CHCi and 
CCH3OHi, for the hot soak test.
    (2) If the vehicle must be moved to a different enclosure, the 
following steps must be taken:
    (i) The enclosure for the hot soak test shall be purged for several 
minutes prior to completion of the running loss test. WARNING: If at any 
time the concentration of hydrocarbons, of methanol, or of methanol and 
hydrocarbons exceeds 15,000 ppm C the enclosure should be immediately 
purged. This concentration provides at least a 4:1 safety factor against 
the lean flammability limit.
    (ii) The FID hydrocarbon analyzer shall be zeroed and spanned 
immediately prior to the test.
    (iii) Fresh impingers shall be installed in the methanol sample 
collection system immediately prior to the start of the test, if 
applicable.
    (iv) If not already on, the mixing fan(s) shall be turned on at this 
time. Throughout the hot soak test, the mixing fan(s) shall circulate 
the air at a rate of 0.80.2 cfm per cubic foot of the 
nominal enclosure volume.
    (v) Begin sampling as follows:
    (A) Analyze the enclosure atmosphere for hydrocarbons and record. 
This is the initial (time = 0 minutes) hydrocarbon concentration, 
CHCi, required in Sec. 86.143. Hydrocarbon emissions may be 
sampled continuously during the test period.
    (B) Analyze the enclosure atmosphere for methanol, if applicable, 
and record. The methanol sampling must start simultaneously with the 
initiation of the hydrocarbon analysis and continue for 
4.00.5 minutes. This is the initial (time=0 minutes) 
methanol concentration, CCH3OHi, required in 
Sec. 86.143. Record the time elapsed during this analysis. If the 4-
minute sample period is inadequate to collect a sample of sufficient 
concentration to allow accurate GC analysis, rapidly collect the 
methanol sample in a bag and then bubble the bag sample through the 
impingers at the specified flow rate. The time elapsed between 
collection of the bag sample and flow through the impingers should be 
minimized to prevent any losses.
    (vi) The vehicle engine compartment cover shall be closed (if not 
already closed), the cooling fan shall be moved, the vehicle shall be 
disconnected from the dynamometer and any sampling system, and then 
driven at minimum throttle to the enclosure for the hot soak test. These 
steps should be done as quickly as possible to minimize the time needed 
to start the hot soak test.
    (vii) The vehicle's engine must be stopped before any part of the 
vehicle enters the enclosure.
    (viii) The vehicle shall enter the enclosure; the enclosure doors 
shall be closed and sealed within 2 minutes of engine shutdown and 
within seven minutes after the end of the running loss test.
    (ix) The test vehicle windows and any luggage compartments shall be 
opened (if not already open). The vehicle engine compartment cover shall 
be closed (if not already closed).
    (c) [Reserved]
    (d) The temperature recording system shall be started and the time 
of engine shutoff shall be noted on the evaporative emission hydrocarbon 
data recording system.
    (e) For the first 5 minutes of the hot soak test, the ambient 
temperature

[[Page 487]]

shall be maintained at 9510  deg.F. For the remainder of the 
hot soak test, the ambient temperature shall be maintained at 
955  deg.F (952  deg.F on average).
    (f) The 600.5 minute hot soak begins when the enclosure 
doors are sealed (or when the running loss test ends, if the hot soak 
test is conducted in the running loss enclosure).
    (g) The FID (or HFID) hydrocarbon analyzer shall be zeroed and 
spanned immediately prior to the end of the test.
    (h) Fresh impingers shall be installed in the methanol collection 
system immediately prior to the end of the test, if applicable.
    (i) [Reserved]
    (j) At the end of the 600.5 minute test period:
    (1) Analyze the enclosure atmosphere for hydrocarbons and record. 
This is the final (time=60 minutes) hydrocarbon concentration, 
CHCf, required in Sec. 86.143.
    (2) Analyze the enclosure atmosphere for methanol and record, if 
applicable. The methanol sampling must start simultaneously with the 
initiation of the hydrocarbon analysis and continue for 
4.00.5 minutes. This is the final (time=60 minutes) methanol 
concentration, CCH3OHf, required in Sec. 86.143. 
Record the time elapsed during this analysis. If the 4-minute sample 
period is inadequate to collect a sample of sufficient concentration to 
allow accurate GC analysis, rapidly collect the methanol sample in a bag 
and then bubble the bag sample through the impingers at the specified 
flow rate. The time elapsed between collection of the bag sample and 
flow through the impingers should be minimized to prevent any losses.
    (k) For the supplemental two-diurnal test sequence (see Sec. 86.130-
96), the hot soak test described in Sec. 86.138-90 shall be conducted 
immediately following the hot transient exhaust emission test. This test 
requires ambient temperatures between 68 deg. and 86  deg.F at all 
times. The equipment and calibration specifications of Secs. 86.107-90 
and 86.117-90 may apply for this testing. Enclosures meeting the 
requirements of Secs. 86.107-96 and 86.117-96 may also be used. This hot 
soak test is followed by two consecutive diurnal heat builds, described 
in Sec. 86.133-96(p).
    (l) If the vehicle is to be tested for diurnal emissions, follow the 
procedure outlined in Sec. 86.133-96.

Sec. 86.139-90  Particulate filter handling and weighing.

    (a) At least 8 hours, but not more than 56 hours before the test, 
place each filter in an open, but protected, petri dish and place in the 
weighing chamber which meets the humidity and temperature specifications 
of Sec. 86.112.
    (b) At the end of the 8 to 56 hour stabilization period, weigh the 
filter on a balance having a precision of one microgram. Record this 
weight. This reading is the tare weight.
    (c) The filter shall then be stored in a covered petri dish which 
shall remain in the weighing chamber until needed for testing.
    (d)(1) If the filter is not used within one hour of its removal from 
the weighing chamber, it shall be reweighed.
    (2) The one hour limit may be replaced by an eight-hour limit if one 
or both of the following conditions are met:
    (i) A stabilized filter is placed and kept in a sealed filter holder 
assembly with the ends plugged, or
    (ii) A stabilized filter is placed in a sealed filter holder 
assembly, which is then immediately placed in a sample line through 
which there is no flow.
    (e) After the test, and after the sample filter is returned to the 
weighing room, condition it for at least 1 hour but not more than 56 
hours. Then weigh a second time. This latter reading is the gross weight 
of the filter. Record this weight.
    (f) The net weight (Pe) is the gross weight minus the 
tare weight.

    Note:  Should the sample on the filter contact the petri dish or any 
other surface, the test is void and must be rerun.

Sec. 86.140-82  Exhaust sample analysis.

    The following sequence of operations shall be performed in 
conjunction with each series of measurement Y:
    (a) For CO, CO2, NOX and gasoline HC:
    (1) Zero the analyzers and obtain a stable zero reading. Recheck 
after tests.
    (2) Introduce span gases and set instrument gains. In order to avoid 
errors, span and calibrate at the same flow rates used to analyze the 
test sample. Span gases should have concentrations equal to 75 to 100 
percent of full scale. If gain has shifted significantly on the 
analyzers, check the calibrations. Show actual concentrations on chart.
    (3) Check zeros; repeat the procedure in paragraphs (a) (1) and (2) 
of this section if required.
    (4) Check flow rates and pressures.
    (5) Measure HC, CO, CO2 and NOX concentrations 
of samples.
    (6) Check zero and span points. If difference is greater than 2 
percent of full scale, repeat the procedure in paragraphs (a) (1) 
through (5) of this section.
    (b) For diesel HC:
    (1) Zero HFID analyzer and obtain a stable zero reading.
    (2) Introduce span gas and set instrument gains. Span gas should 
have concentration equal to 75 to 100 percent of full scale.
    (3) Check zero as in paragraph (b)(1) of this section.
    (4) Introduction of zero and span gas into the analyzer can be 
accomplished by either of the following methods:
    (i) Close heated valve in HC sample (see Figures B82-3 or B82-4), 
and allow gases to enter HFID. Extreme care should be taken not to 
introduce gases under high pressure.
    (ii) Connect zero and span line directly to HC sample probe and 
introduce gases at a flow rate greater than 125 percent of the HFID flow 
rate with the CVS blower operating (see figures B82-3A or B82-4A). 
Excess flow must be allowed to exit probe inlet.

    Note:  In order to minimize errors, HFID flow rate and pressure 
during zero and span (and background bag reading) must be exactly the 
same as that used during testing.

    (5) Continuously record (integrate electronically if desired) dilute 
hydrocarbon emissions levels during test. Background samples are 
collected in sample bags and analyzed as in paragraph (4)(i) or (4)(ii)

or (ii) of this section. If difference is greater than 2 percent of full 
scale, void test and check for HC ``hangup'' or electronic drift in 
analyzer.
    (c) For CH30H (methanol-fueled vehicles):
    (1) Introduce a reference sample of methanol (the concentration of 
methanol in deionized water is known and is CMR in the 
calculations) into the gas chromatograph and measure the area of the

of formaldehyde as a dinitrophenylhydrazine derivative in acetonitrile 
is known (CFR)) into the high pressure liquid chromatograph 
(HPLC) and measure the area of the response peak. This reference sample 
peak area is AFR in the calculations.
    (2) Introduce test samples into the high pressure liquid 
chromatograph and measure the area of the responses peak. This peak area 
is AFS in the calculations.

and allow gases to enter HFID. Extreme care should be taken not to 
introduce gases under high pressure.
    (ii) Connect zero and span line directly to THC sample probe and 
introduce gases at a flow rate greater than 125 percent of the HFID flow 
rate with the CVS blower operating (see Figures B94-5 or B94-6). Excess 
flow must be allowed to exit probe inlet.

    Note:  In order to minimize errors, HFID flow rate and pressure 
during zero and span (and background bag reading) must be exactly the 
same as that used during testing.

    (5) Continuously record (integrate electronically if desired) dilute 
THC emission levels during test. Background samples are collected in 
sample bags and analyzed as in paragraphs (b)(4) (i) or (ii) of this 
section.
    (6) Check zero and span as in paragraphs (b) (1) through (4) of this 
section. If difference is greater than 2 percent of full scale, void 
test and check for THC ``hangup'' or electronic drift in analyzer.
    (c) For CH3OH (methanol-fueled vehicles), introduce test 
samples into the gas chromatograph and measure the concentration. This 
concentration is CMS in the calculations.
    (d) For HCHO (methanol-fueled vehicles), introduce formaldehyde test 
samples into the high pressure liquid chromatograph and measure the 
concentration of formaldehyde as a dinitrophenylhydrazine derivative in 
acetonitrile. This concentration is CFS in the calculations.
    (e) For CH4 analysis:
    (1) In the event that the procedure results in negative 
NMHCwm values (as may occur with high methane fractions), any 
negative NMHCwm value whose absolute value is less than 10 
percent of the NMHC standard shall be rounded to zero. Negative 
NMHCwm values whose absolute value is more than 10 percent of 
the NMHC standard shall require sample remeasurement. If the 10 percent 
criterion cannot be met after remeasurement, the test will be void.
    (2) Other sampling procedures may be used if shown to yield 
equivalent or superior results and if approved in advance by the 
Administrator.

Sec. 86.110-82(c)(1) for determination).
    (4) Dct = The measured driving distance from the 
``transient'' phase of the cold start test, in miles.
    (5) Ds = The measured driving distance from the 
``stabilized'' phase of the cold start test, in miles.
    (6) Dht = The measured driving distance from the 
``transient'' phase of the hot start test, in miles.
    (b) The mass of particulate for each phase of testing is determined 
as follows:
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR06OC93.074


where:
    (1) j = 1, 2 or 3 depending on which phase the mass of particulate 
is being determined for (i.e., the ``transient'' phase of the cold start 
test, the ``stabilized'' phase of the cold start test, or the 
``transient'' phase of the hot start test).
    (2) Vmix = Total dilute exhaust volume in cubic meters 
per test, corrected

to standard conditions 528 deg.R (293K) and 29.92 in Hg (101.3 kPa). 
Vmix is further defined in Sec. 86.144.
    (3) Pe = mass of particulate per test on the exhaust 
filter(s), grams.
    (4) Pb = mass of particulate on the ``background'' 
filter, grams.
    (i) The background particulate level, Pb, inside the 
dilution air filter box at EPA is very low. Pb will be 
assumed = 0, and background particulate samples will not be taken with 
each exhaust sample. It is recommended that background particulate 
checks be made periodically to verify the low level.
    (ii) Any manufacturer may make the same assumption without prior EPA 
approval.
    (iii) If Pb is assumed = 0, then no background correction 
is made. The equation for particulate mass emissions then reduces to:

    (6) Vep = total volume of sample pulled through the 
filter, cubic feet at standard conditions.
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR06OC93.076


where:
    (i) Vap = corrected (according to procedure specified in 
Sec. 85.120) dilute exhaust sample volume, cubic feet.
    (ii) Pbar = barometric pressure, in Hg.
    (iii) Pip = pressure elevation above ambient measured at 
the inlet to the dilute exhaust sample gas meter or flow instrument, in 
Hg. (For most gas meters with unrestricted discharge Pip is 
negligible and can be assumed = 0.)
    (iv) Tip = average temperature of the dilute exhaust 
sample at the inlet to the gas meter or flow instrument,  deg.R.
    (7) Vbp = total volume of the background sample, cubic 
feet at standard conditions. (Vbp is not required if Pb 
is assumed = 0.) It is calculated using the following formula:

Sec. 85.120) background sample volume, cubic feet.
    (ii) Pbar = barometric pressure, in. Hg.
    (iii) Pib = pressure elevation above ambient measured at 
the inlet to the background gas meter or flow instrument, in Hg. (For 
most gas meters with unrestricted discharge Pib is negligible 
and can be assumed = 0.)
    (iv) Tib = average temperature of the background sample 
at the inlet to the gas meter or flow instrument,  deg.R.
    (8) DF = dilution factor. (DF is not required if Pb is 
assumed = 0.)

Sec. 86.146-96  Fuel dispensing spitback procedure.

    (a) The vehicle is fueled at a rate of 10 gal/min to test for fuel 
spitback emissions. All liquid fuel spitback emissions that occur during 
the test are collected in a bag made of a material impermeable to 
hydrocarbons or methanol. The bag shall be designed and used so that 
liquid fuel does not spit back onto the vehicle body, adjacent floor, 
etc., and it must not impede the free flow of displaced gasoline vapor 
from the orifice of the filler pipe. The bag must be designed to permit 
passage of the dispensing nozzle through the bag. If the bag has been 
used for previous testing, sufficient time shall be allowed for the bag 
to dry out. The dispensing nozzle shall be a commercial model, not 
equipped with vapor recovery hardware.
    (b) Ambient temperature levels encountered by the test vehicle shall 
be not less than 68  deg.F nor more than 86  deg.F. The temperatures 
monitored during testing must be representative of those experienced by 
the test vehicle. The vehicle shall be approximately level during all 
phases of the test sequence to prevent abnormal fuel distribution.
    (c) Measure and record the mass of the bag to be used for collecting 
spitback emissions to the nearest 0.01 gram.
    (d) Drain the fuel tank(s) and fill with test fuel, as specified in 
Sec. 86.113, to 10 percent of the reported nominal fuel

[[Page 512]]

tank capacity. The fuel cap(s) shall be installed immediately after 
refueling.
    (e) The vehicle shall be soaked at 806  deg.F 
(273  deg.C) for a minimum of six hours, then placed, either 
by being driven or pushed, on a dynamometer and operated through one 
Urban Dynamometer Driving Schedule (specified in Sec. 86.115 and 
appendix I of this part). The test vehicle may not be used to set 
dynamometer horsepower.
    (f) Following the preconditioning drive, the vehicle shall be moved 
or driven at minimum throttle to the refueling area.
    (g) All areas in proximity to the vehicle fuel fill orifice and the 
dispenser nozzle itself shall be completely dry of liquid fuel.
    (h) The fuel filler neck shall be snugly fitted with the vented bag 
to capture any fuel emissions. The fuel nozzle shall be inserted through 
the bag into the filler neck of the test vehicle to its maximum 
penetration. The plane of the nozzle's handle shall be perpendicular to 
the floor of the laboratory.
    (i) The fueling procedure consists of dispensing fuel through a 
nozzle, interrupted by a series of automatic shutoffs. A minimum of 3 
seconds shall elapse between any automatic shutoff and subsequent 
resumption of dispensing. Dispensing may not be manually terminated, 
unless the test vehicle has already clearly failed the test. The vehicle 
shall be fueled according to the following procedure:
    (1) The fueling operation shall be started within 4 minutes after 
the vehicle is turned off and within 8 minutes after completion of the 
preconditioning drive. The average temperature of the dispensed fuel 
shall be 655  deg.F (183  deg.C).
    (2) The fuel shall be dispensed at a rate of 9.80.3 
gallons/minute (37.11.1 L/min) until the automatic shutoff 
is activated.
    (3) If the automatic shutoff is activated before the nozzle has 
dispensed an amount of fuel equal to 70 percent of the tank's nominal 
capacity, the dispensing may be resumed at a reduced rate. Repeat as 
necessary until the nozzle has dispensed an amount of fuel equal to at 
least 70 percent of the tank's nominal capacity.
    (4) Once the automatic shutoff is activated after the nozzle has 
dispensed an amount of fuel equal to 70 percent of the tank's nominal 
capacity, the fuel shall be dispensed at a rate of 51 
gallons/minute (194 /min) for all subsequent 
dispensing. Dispensing shall be restarted two additional times.
    (5) If the nozzle has dispensed an amount of fuel less than 85 
percent of the tank's nominal capacity after the two additional 
dispensing restarts, dispensing shall be resumed, and shall continue 
through as many automatic shutoffs as necessary to achieve this level. 
This completes the fueling procedure.
    (j) Withdraw the nozzle from the vehicle and the bag, holding the 
tip of the nozzle upward to avoid any dripping into the bag.
    (k) Within 1 minute after completion of the fueling event, the bag 
shall be folded to minimize the vapor volume inside the bag. The bag 
shall be folded as quickly as possible to prevent evaporation of 
collected emissions.
    (l) Within 5 minutes after completion of the fueling event, the mass 
of the bag and its contents shall be measured and recorded (consistent 
with paragraph (c) of this section). The bag shall be weighed as quickly 
as possible to prevent evaporation of collected emissions.

Sec. 86.150-98  Refueling test procedure; overview.

    (a) The refueling emissions test procedure described in this and 
subsequent sections is used to determine the conformity of vehicles with 
the refueling emissions standards set forth in subpart A of this part 
for light-duty vehicles and light-duty trucks. The refueling emissions 
test procedure may be performed as an individual test or in combination 
with the evaporative and exhaust emissions test sequences of 
Sec. 86.130-96.
    (b) The refueling emissions test is designed to measure hydrocarbon 
emissions resulting from the generation or displacement of fuel tank 
vapor during vehicle refueling. The refueling emissions shall be 
measured by the enclosure technique.
    (c) All emission control systems installed on or incorporated in a 
new

[[Page 513]]

motor vehicle shall be functioning during all procedures in this subpart 
except:
    (1) In cases of component malfunction or failure; and
    (2) during certain specified fuel drain and fill operations, at 
which times the refueling emission control canister is disconnected. 
Maintenance to correct component malfunction or failure shall be 
authorized in accordance with Sec. 86.098-25.
    (d) For liquefied petroleum gas-fueled vehicles only. Refueling test 
procedures for light-duty vehicles and light-duty trucks operated on 
liquefied petroleum gas are described in Sec. 86.157.

Sec. 86.151-98  General requirements; refueling test.

    (a) The refueling emissions procedure, shown in Figure B98-12, 
starts with the stabilizing of the vehicle and the loading of the 
refueling emissions canister(s) to breakthrough, and continues with the 
vehicle drive for purging of the canister, followed by the refueling 
emissions measurement. The test is conducted following Secs. 86.152-98 
through 86.154-98 in order.
    (b) Ambient temperature levels encountered by the test vehicle 
throughout the test sequence shall not be less than 68  deg.F (20 
deg.C) nor more than 86  deg.F (30  deg.C).
    (c) The vehicle shall be approximately level during all phases of 
the test sequence to prevent abnormal fuel distribution.

[59 FR 16296, Apr. 6, 1994]



Sec. 86.152-98  Vehicle preparation; refueling test.

    (a) Provide additional fittings and adapters, as required, to 
accommodate a fuel drain at the lowest point possible in the tank(s) as 
installed on the vehicle. The canister shall not be removed from the 
vehicle, unless access to the canister in its normal location is so 
restricted that purging and loading can only reasonably be accomplished 
by removing the canister from the vehicle. Special care shall be taken 
during this step to avoid damage to the components and the integrity of 
the fuel system. A replacement canister may be temporarily installed 
during the soak period while the canister from the test vehicle is 
preconditioned.
    (b) Provide valving or other means to allow the venting of the 
refueling vapor line to the atmosphere rather than to the refueling 
emissions canister(s) when required by this test procedure.

[[Page 515]]

    (c) For preconditioning that involves loading the vapor collection 
canister(s) with butane, provide valving or other means as necessary to 
allow loading of the canister(s).
[59 FR 16298, Apr. 6, 1994, as amended at 60 FR 43898, Aug. 23, 1995]



Sec. 86.153-98  Vehicle and canister preconditioning; refueling test.

    (a) Vehicle and canister preconditioning. Vehicles and vapor storage 
canisters shall be preconditioned in accordance with the preconditioning 
procedures for the supplemental two-diurnal evaporative emissions test 
specified in Sec. 86.132-96 (a) through (j). For vehicles equipped with 
non-integrated refueling emission control systems, the canister must be 
loaded using the method involving butane loading to breakthrough (see 
Sec. 86.132-96(j)(1)).
    (b) Seal test. The Administrator may choose to omit certain canister 
load and purge steps, and replace them with a bench purge of the 
refueling canister(s), in order to verify the adequacy of refueling 
emission control system seals. Failure of this seal test shall 
constitute a failure of the refueling emission control test. For 
integrated systems, this bench purge may be performed after the exhaust 
testing in order to obtain exhaust emission test results. Non-integrated 
system seal testing shall be performed using paragraph (b)(1) of this 
section.
    (1) Without the exhaust emission test. The Administrator may conduct 
the canister preconditioning by purging the canister(s) with at least 
1200 canister bed volumes of ambient air (with humidity controlled to 
5025 grains of water vapor per pound of dry air) maintained 
at a nominal flow rate of 0.8 cfm directly following the preconditioning 
drive described in Sec. 86.132-96 (c) through (e). In this case, the 
canister loading procedures and the vehicle driving procedures described 
in Sec. 86.132-96 (f) through (j) and in paragraphs (c) through (d) of 
this section shall be omitted, and the 10 minute and 60 minute time 
requirements of paragraph (e) of this section shall apply to time after 
completion of the bench purge. In the case of multiple refueling 
canisters, each canister shall be purged separately.
    (2) With the exhaust emission test. The Administrator may conduct 
the canister preconditioning by purging the canister(s) directly after 
the exhaust test (see paragraph (c)(1) of this section). The canister 
shall be purged with at least 1200 canister bed volumes of ambient air 
(with humidity controlled to 5025 grains of water vapor per 
pound of dry air) maintained at a nominal flow rate of 0.8 cfm. In this 
case, the vehicle driving procedures described in paragraphs (c)(2) 
through (d) of this section shall be omitted, and the 10 minute and 60 
minute time requirements of paragraph (e) of this section shall apply to 
time after completion of the bench purge. In the case of multiple 
refueling canisters, each canister shall be purged separately.
    (c) Canister purging; integrated systems. (1) Vehicles to be tested 
for exhaust emissions only shall be processed according to Secs. 86.135-
94 through 86.137-96. Vehicles to be tested for refueling emissions 
shall be processed in accordance with the procedures in Secs. 86.135-94 
through 86.137-96, followed by the procedures outlined in paragraph 
(c)(2) of this section.
    (2) To provide additional opportunity for canister purge, conduct 
additional driving on a dynamometer, within one hour of completion of 
the hot start exhaust test, by operating the test vehicle through one 
UDDS, a 2 minute idle, two NYCCs, another 2 minute idle, another UDDS, 
then another 2 minute idle (see Sec. 86.115-78 and appendix I of this 
part). Fifteen seconds after the engine starts, place the transmission 
in gear. Twenty seconds after the engine starts, begin the initial 
vehicle acceleration of the driving schedule. The transmission shall be 
operated according to the specifications of Sec. 86.128-79 during the 
driving cycles. The vehicle's air conditioner (if so equipped) shall be 
turned off. Ambient temperature shall be controlled as specified in 
Sec. 86.151-98. It is not necessary to monitor and/or control in-tank 
fuel temperatures.
    (i) The fixed-speed fan specified in Sec. 86.135-94(b) may be used 
for engine cooling. If a fixed-speed fan is used, the vehicle's hood 
shall be opened.
    (ii) Alternatively, the roadspeed-modulated fan specified in 
Sec. 86.107-96(d)(1) may be used for engine cooling.

[[Page 516]]

If a road-speed modulated fan is used, the vehicle's hood shall be 
closed.
    (d) Canister purging; non-integrated systems. Within one hour of 
completion of canister loading to breakthrough, the fuel tank(s) shall 
be further filled to 95 percent of nominal tank capacity determined to 
the nearest one-tenth of a U.S. gallon (0.38 liter) with the fuel 
specified in Sec. 86.113-94. During this fueling operation, the 
refueling emissions canister(s) shall be disconnected. Following 
completion of refueling, the refueling emissions canister(s) shall be 
reconnected. Special care shall be taken during this step to avoid 
damage to the components and the integrity of the fuel system. Vehicle 
driving to purge the refueling canister(s) shall be performed using 
either the chassis dynamometer procedure or the test track procedure, as 
described in paragraphs (d)(1) and (d)(2) of this section. The 
Administrator may choose to shorten the vehicle driving for a partial 
refueling test as described in paragraph (d)(3) of this section. For 
vehicles equipped with dual fuel tanks, the required volume of fuel 
shall be driven out of one tank, the second tank shall be selected as 
the fuel source, and the required volume of fuel shall be driven out of 
the second tank.
    (1) Chassis dynamometer procedure. (i) Vehicle driving on a chassis 
dynamometer shall consist of repeated drives with the UDDS until 85 
percent of fuel tank capacity has been consumed. Driving in testing 
performed by manufacturers may be terminated before 85 percent of the 
fuel tank capacity has been consumed, provided that driving is not 
terminated partway through a UDDS cycle. Driving in testing performed by 
the Administrator may be terminated after the same number of UDDS cycles 
as driven in the manufacturer's certification testing.
    (ii) Except with the advance approval of the Administrator, the 
number of UDDSs required to consume 85 percent of tank fuel capacity 
(total capacity of both tanks when the vehicle is equipped with dual 
fuel tanks) shall be determined from the fuel economy on the UDDS 
applicable to the test vehicle and from the number of gallons to the 
nearest 0.1 gallon (0.38 liter) that constitutes 85 percent of tank 
volume. If this ``fuel consumed point'' occurs partway through a UDDS 
cycle, the cycle shall be completed in its entirety.
    (iii) For vehicles equipped with dual fuel tanks, fuel switching 
from the first tank to the second tank shall occur at the 10 percent 
volume of the first tank regardless of the point in the UDDS cycle at 
which this occurs.
    (iv) If necessary to accommodate work schedules, the engine may be 
turned off and the vehicle parked on the dynamometer. The vehicle may be 
parked off of the dynamometer to facilitate maintenance or repairs if 
required.
    (v) During the driving on the dynamometer, a cooling fan(s) shall be 
positioned as described in Sec. 86.135-94(b).
    (2) Test track procedure. (i) Vehicle driving on a test track shall 
consist of repeated drives with the UDDS until 85 percent of fuel tank 
capacity has been consumed. Driving performed by manufacturers may be 
terminated before 85 percent of the fuel tank capacity has been 
consumed, provided that driving is not terminated partway through a UDDS 
cycle. Driving performed by the Administrator may be terminated after 
the same number of UDDS cycles as driven in the manufacturer's 
certification testing.
    (ii) If the distance from the emission laboratory to the test track 
is less than 5 miles (8.05 km) the vehicle may be driven to the test 
track at a speed not to exceed 25 mph. If the distance is greater than 5 
miles (8.05 km) the vehicle shall be moved to the test track with the 
engine off.
    (iii) Except with the advance approval of the Administrator, the 
number of UDDSs required to consume 85 percent of tank fuel capacity 
(total capacity of both tanks when the vehicle is equipped with dual 
fuel tanks) shall be determined from the fuel economy on the UDDS 
applicable to the test vehicle and from the number of gallons to the 
nearest 0.1 gallon (0.38 liter) that constitutes 85 percent of tank 
volume. If this ``fuel consumed point'' occurs partway through a UDDS 
cycle, the cycle shall be completed in its entirety.
    (iv) The vehicle shall be driven at a speed not to exceed 25 mph 
from the

[[Page 517]]

test track to the laboratory provided the distance from the test track 
to the laboratory does not exceed 5 miles (8.05 km). If the distance 
from the test track to the emission laboratory is greater than 5 miles 
(8.05 km) the vehicle shall be moved from the test track with the engine 
off.
    (v) For vehicles equipped with dual fuel tanks, fuel switching from 
the first tank to the second tank shall occur at the 10 percent volume 
of the first tank regardless of the point in the UDDS cycle at which 
this occurs.
    (vi) If necessary to accommodate work schedules, the engine may be 
turned off and the vehicle parked on the test track. The vehicle may be 
parked off of the test track to facilitate maintenance or repairs if 
required. If the vehicle is moved from the test track, it shall be 
returned to the track with the engine off when mileage accumulation is 
to be resumed.
    (3) Drive schedule for partial refueling test. The Administrator may 
conduct a partial refueling test involving a shortening of the drive 
procedures described in paragraphs (d) (1) and (2) of this section and a 
modified soak and refueling procedure as described in paragraph (e) of 
this section and Sec. 86.154-98(e)(7)(i). The drive shall be performed 
as described in paragraph (d) (1) or (2) of this section except that the 
drive shall be terminated when at least 10 percent but no more than 85 
percent of the fuel tank nominal capacity has been consumed and not 
partway through a UDDS cycle. The amount of fuel consumed in the drive 
shall be determined by multiplying the number of UDDSs driven by the 
mileage accumulated per UDDS and dividing by the fuel economy for the 
UDDS applicable to the test vehicle.
    (e) Vehicle cool down--(1) Partial refueling test. If the 
Administrator is conducting the non-integrated system partial refueling 
test, after the driving procedure specified in paragraph (d)(3) of this 
section, the vehicle shall be parked (without starting the engine) and 
soaked at 803  deg.F (271.7  deg.C) for a 
minimum of 1 hour and a maximum of 6 hours.
    (2) For all other refueling emission tests. Within 10 minutes of 
completion of refueling emissions canister stabilization (see paragraph 
(c) or (d) of this section), the refueling emissions canister(s) shall 
be disconnected. Within 60 minutes of completion of refueling emissions 
canister stabilization (see paragraph (c) or (d) of this section), the 
vehicle fuel tank(s) shall be drained, the fuel tank(s) fueled to 10 
percent of nominal tank capacity determined to the nearest one-tenth of 
a U.S. gallon (0.38 liter) with the specified fuel, and the vehicle 
parked (without starting the engine) and soaked at 803 
deg.F (271.7  deg.C) for a minimum of 6 hours and a maximum 
of 24 hours.

Sec. 86.154-98  Measurement procedure; refueling test.

    (a) The refueling test measurement procedure described in this 
section immediately follows the vehicle and canister preconditioning 
described in Sec. 86.153-98.
    (b) The refueling emission enclosure shall be purged for several 
minutes immediately prior to the test. Warning: If at any time the 
concentration of hydrocarbons, of methanol, or of methanol and 
hydrocarbons exceeds 15,000 ppm C, the enclosure should be immediately 
purged. This concentration provides a 4:1 safety factor against the lean 
flammability limit.
    (c)(1) The FID (or HFID) hydrocarbon analyzer, and additional 
analyzer, if needed, shall be zeroed and spanned immediately prior to 
the test.
    (2) For methanol-fueled vehicles only, impingers charged with known 
volumes of pure deionized water shall be placed in the methanol sampling 
system.
    (d) If not already on, the enclosure mixing fan and the spilled fuel 
mixing blower shall be turned on at this time.
    (e) The refueling emission measurement portion of the refueling test 
shall be performed as follows:
    (1) The line from the fuel tank(s) to the refueling emissions 
canister(s) shall be connected.
    (2) The test vehicle, with the engine shut off, shall be moved into 
the enclosure. The test vehicle windows and luggage compartment shall be 
opened if not already open.

[[Page 518]]

    (3) An electrical ground shall be attached to the vehicle. The 
vehicle fuel filler cap shall be removed and the enclosure door shall be 
closed and sealed within two minutes of cap removal. The FID (or HFID) 
trace shall be allowed to stabilize.
    (4) The dispensed fuel temperature recording system shall be 
started.
    (5)(i) Within 10 minutes of closing and sealing the doors, analyze 
enclosure atmosphere for hydrocarbons and record. This is the initial 
(time=0 minutes) hydrocarbon concentration, CHCi, required in 
Sec. 86.143-96.
    (ii) For methanol-fueled vehicles only, measure the initial 
concentration of methanol as described in Sec. 86.133-96(i)(6).
    (6) Within one minute of obtaining the initial FID (or HFID) 
reading, and methanol reading if applicable, the fuel nozzle shall be 
inserted into the filler neck of the test vehicle, to its maximum 
penetration, and the refueling operation shall be started. The plane of 
the nozzle's handle shall be approximately perpendicular to the floor of 
the laboratory. The fuel shall be dispensed at a temperature of 
671.5  deg.F (19.40.8  deg.C) and at a 
dispensing rate of 9.80.3 gal/min (37.11.1 
liter/min). In testing conducted by the Administrator, a lower 
dispensing rate (no lower than 4.0 gal/min (15.1 liter/min)) may be 
used.
    (7)(i) Partial refueling test. If the Administrator conducts the 
non-integrated system partial refueling test, the fuel flow shall 
continue until the amount of fuel pumped is equal to the fuel consumed 
during the driving, as determined in accordance with Sec. 86.153-
98(d)(3). The final volume of fuel dispensed must be within one-tenth of 
a U.S. gallon (0.38 liter) of the targeted amount. If automatic nozzle 
shut-off occurs prior to this point, the nozzle shall be reactivated 
within 15 seconds and fuel dispensing continued as needed. A minimum of 
3 seconds shall elapse between any automatic shutoff and subsequent 
resumption of dispensing.
    (ii) For all other refueling tests. The fuel flow shall continue 
until the refueling nozzle automatic shut-off is activated. The amount 
of fuel dispensed must be at least 85 percent of nominal fuel tank 
volume, determined to the nearest one-tenth of a U.S. gallon (0.38 
liter). If automatic nozzle shut-off occurs prior to this point, the 
nozzle shall be reactivated within 15 seconds and fuel dispensing 
continued as needed. A minimum of 3 seconds shall elapse between any 
automatic shutoff and subsequent resumption of dispensing. Dispensing 
may not be manually terminated, unless the test vehicle has already 
clearly failed the test.
    (8)(i) The final reading of the evaporative enclosure FID analyzer 
shall be taken 605 seconds following the final shut-off of 
fuel flow. This is the final hydrocarbon concentration, CHCf, 
required in Sec. 86.143-96. The elapsed time, in minutes, between the 
initial and final FID (or HFID) readings shall be recorded.
    (ii) For methanol-fueled vehicles only. Measure the final 
concentration of methanol as described in Sec. 86.133-96(m)(2).
    (9) For vehicles equipped with more than one fuel tank, the 
procedures described in this section shall be performed for each fuel 
tank.

[59 FR 48511, Sept. 21, 1994]



Sec. 86.158-00  Supplemental Federal Test Procedures; overview.

    The procedures described in Secs. 86.158-00, 86.159-00, 86.160-00, 
and 86.166-00 discuss the aggressive driving (US06) and air conditioning 
(SC03) elements of the Supplemental Federal Test Procedures (SFTP). 
These test procedures consist of two separable test elements: A sequence 
of vehicle operation that tests exhaust emissions with a driving 
schedule (US06) that tests exhaust emissions under high speeds and 
accelerations (aggressive driving); and a sequence of vehicle operation 
that tests exhaust emissions with a driving schedule (SC03) which 
includes the impacts of actual air conditioning operation. These test 
procedures (and the associated standards set forth in subpart A of this 
part) are applicable to light-duty vehicles and light-duty trucks.
    (a) Vehicles are tested for the exhaust emissions of THC, CO, 
NOX, CH4,

[[Page 521]]

and CO2. For diesel-cycle vehicles, THC is sampled and 
analyzed continuously according to the provisions of Sec. 86.110.
    (b) Each test procedure follows the vehicle preconditioning 
specified in Sec. 86.132-00.
    (c) US06 Test Cycle. The test procedure for emissions on the US06 
driving schedule (see Sec. 86.159-00) is designed to determine gaseous 
exhaust emissions from light-duty vehicles and light-duty trucks while 
simulating high speed and acceleration on a chassis dynamometer 
(aggressive driving). The full test consists of preconditioning the 
engine to a hot stabilized condition, as specified in Sec. 86.132-00, 
and an engine idle period of 1 to 2 minutes, after which the vehicle is 
accelerated into the US06 cycle. A proportional part of the diluted 
exhaust is collected continuously for subsequent analysis, using a 
constant volume (variable dilution) sampler or critical flow venturi 
sampler.
    (d) SC03 Test Cycle. The test procedure for determining exhaust 
emissions with the air conditioner operating (see Sec. 86.160-00) is 
designed to determine gaseous exhaust emissions from light-duty vehicles 
and light-duty trucks while simulating an urban trip during ambient 
conditions of 95  deg.F, 100 grains of water/pound of dry air 
(approximately 40 percent relative humidity), and a solar heat load 
intensity of 850 W/m2. The full test consists of vehicle 
preconditioning (see Sec. 86.132-00 paragraphs (o) (1) and (2)), an 
engine key-off 10 minute soak, an engine start, and operation over the 
SC03 cycle. A proportional part of the diluted exhaust is collected 
continuously during the engine start and the SC03 driving cycle for 
subsequent analysis, using a constant volume (variable dilution) sampler 
or critical flow venturi sampler.
    (e) The emission results from the aggressive driving test 
(Sec. 86.159-00), air conditioning test (Sec. 86.160-00), and a FTP test 
(Sec. 86.130-00 (a) through (d) and (f)) (conducted on a large single 
roll or equivalent dynamometer) are analyzed according to the 
calculation methodology in Sec. 86.164-00 and compared to the applicable 
SFTP emission standards in subpart A of this part (Secs. 86.108-00 and 
86.109-00).
    (f) These test procedures may be run in any sequence that maintains 
the applicable preconditioning elements specified in Sec. 86.132-00.
[61 FR 54894, Oct. 22, 1996]



Sec. 86.159-00  Exhaust emission test procedures for US06 emissions.

    (a) Overview. The dynamometer operation consists of a single, 600 
second test on the US06 driving schedule, as described in appendix I, 
paragraph (g), of this part. The vehicle is preconditioned in accordance 
with Sec. 86.132-00, to bring it to a warmed-up stabilized condition. 
This preconditioning is followed by a 1 to 2 minute idle period that 
proceeds directly into the US06 driving schedule during which continuous 
proportional samples of gaseous emissions are collected for analysis. If 
engine stalling should occur during cycle operation, follow the 
provisions of Sec. 86.136-90 (engine starting and restarting). For 
gasoline-fueled Otto-cycle vehicles, the composite samples collected in 
bags are analyzed for THC, CO, CO2, CH4, and 
NOX. For petroleum-fueled diesel-cycle vehicles, THC is 
sampled and analyzed continuously according to the provisions of 
Sec. 86.110. Parallel bag samples of dilution air are analyzed for THC, 
CO, CO2, CH4, and NOX.
    (b) Dynamometer activities. (1) All official US06 tests shall be run 
on a large single roll electric dynamometer, or an approved equivalent 
dynamometer configuration, that satisfies the requirements of 
Sec. 86.108-00.
    (2) Position (vehicle can be driven) the test vehicle on the 
dynamometer and restrain.
    (3) Required US06 schedule test dynamometer inertia weight class 
selections are determined by the test vehicles test weight basis and 
corresponding equivalent weight as listed in the tabular information of 
Sec. 86.129-94(a) and discussed in Sec. 86.129-00 (e) and (f).
    (4) Set the dynamometer test inertia weight and roadload horsepower 
requirements for the test vehicle (see Sec. 86.129-00 (e) and (f). The 
dynamometer's horsepower adjustment settings shall be set to match the 
force imposed during dynamometer operation with actual road load force 
at all speeds.
    (5) The vehicle speed as measured from the dynamometer rolls shall 
be

[[Page 522]]

used. A speed vs. time recording, as evidence of dynamometer test 
validity, shall be supplied on request of the Administrator.
    (6) The drive wheel tires may be inflated up to a gauge pressure of 
45 psi (310 kPa), or the manufacturer's recommended pressure if higher 
than 45 psi, in order to prevent tire damage. The drive wheel tire 
pressure shall be reported with the test results.
    (7) The driving distance, as measured by counting the number of 
dynamometer roll or shaft revolutions, shall be determined for the test.
    (8) Four-wheel drive vehicles will be tested in a two-wheel drive 
mode of operation. Full-time four-wheel drive vehicles will have one set 
of drive wheels temporarily disengaged by the vehicle manufacturer. 
Four-wheel drive vehicles which can be manually shifted to a two-wheel 
mode will be tested in the normal on-highway two-wheel drive mode of 
operation.
    (9) During dynamometer operation, a fixed speed cooling fan with a 
maximum discharge velocity of 15,000 cfm will be positioned so as to 
direct cooling air to the vehicle in an appropriate manner with the 
engine compartment cover open. In the case of vehicles with front engine 
compartments, the fan shall be positioned within 24 inches (61 
centimeters) of the vehicle. In the case of vehicles with rear engine 
compartments (or if special designs make the above impractical), the 
cooling fan(s) shall be placed in a position to provide sufficient air 
to maintain vehicle cooling. The Administrator may approve modified 
cooling configurations or additional cooling if necessary to 
satisfactorily perform the test. In approving requests for additional or 
modified cooling, the Administrator will consider such items as actual 
road cooling data and whether such additional cooling is needed to 
provide a representative test.
    (c) The flow capacity of the CVS shall be large enough to virtually 
eliminate water condensation in the system.
    (d) Practice runs over the prescribed driving schedule may be 
performed at test point, provided an emission sample is not taken, for 
the purpose of finding the appropriate throttle action to maintain the 
proper speed-time relationship, or to permit sampling system adjustment.
    (e) Perform the test bench sampling sequence outlined in 
Sec. 86.140-94 prior to or in conjunction with each series of exhaust 
emission measurements.
    (f) Test activities. (1) The US06 consists of a single test which is 
directly preceded by a vehicle preconditioning in accordance with 
Sec. 86.132-00. Following the vehicle preconditioning, the vehicle is 
idled for not less than one minute and not more than two minutes. The 
equivalent dynamometer mileage of the test is 8.0 miles (1.29 km).
    (2) The following steps shall be taken for each test:
    (i) Immediately after completion of the preconditioning, idle the 
vehicle. The idle period is not to be less than one minute or not 
greater than two minutes.
    (ii) With the sample selector valves in the ``standby'' position, 
connect evacuated sample collection bags to the dilute exhaust and 
dilution air sample collection systems.
    (iii) Start the CVS (if not already on), the sample pumps, the 
temperature recorder, the vehicle cooling fan, and the heated THC 
analysis recorder (diesel-cycle only). The heat exchanger of the 
constant volume sampler, if used, petroleum-fueled diesel-cycle THC 
analyzer continuous sample line should be preheated to their respective 
operating temperatures before the test begins.
    (iv) Adjust the sample flow rates to the desired flow rate and set 
the gas flow measuring devices to zero.
    (A) For gaseous bag samples (except THC samples), the minimum flow 
rate is 0.17 cfm (0.08 liters/sec).
    (B) For THC samples, the minimum FID (or HFID in the case of diesel-
cycle vehicles) flow rate is 0.066 cfm (0.031 liters/sec).
    (C) CFV sample flow rate is fixed by the venturi design.
    (v) Attach the exhaust tube to the vehicle tailpipe(s).
    (vi) Start the gas flow measuring device, position the sample 
selector valves to direct the sample flow into the exhaust sample bag, 
the dilution air sample bag, turn on the petroleum-

[[Page 523]]

fueled diesel-cycle THC analyzer system integrator, mark the recorder 
chart, and record both gas meter or flow measurement instrument 
readings, (if applicable).
    (vii) Place vehicle in gear after starting the gas flow measuring 
device, but prior to the first acceleration. Begin the first 
acceleration 5 seconds after starting the measuring device.
    (viii) Operate the vehicle according to the US06 driving schedule, 
as described in appendix I, paragraph (g), of this part. Manual 
transmission vehicles shall be shifted according to the manufacturer 
recommended shift schedule, subject to review and approval by the 
Administrator. For further guidance on transmissions see Sec. 86.128-00.
    (ix) Turn the engine off 2 seconds after the end of the last 
deceleration.
    (x) Five seconds after the engine stops running, simultaneously turn 
off gas flow measuring device No. 1 (and the petroleum-fueled diesel 
hydrocarbon integrator No. 1 and mark the petroleum-fueled diesel 
hydrocarbon recorder chart if applicable) and position the sample 
selector valves to the ``standby'' position. Record the measured roll or 
shaft revolutions and the No. 1 gas meter reading or flow measurement 
instrument.
    (xi) As soon as possible, transfer the exhaust and dilution air bag 
samples to the analytical system and process the samples according to 
Sec. 86.140-94 obtaining a stabilized reading of the bag exhaust sample 
on all analyzers within 20 minutes of the end of the sample collection 
phase of the test.
    (xii) Immediately after the end of the sample period, turn off the 
cooling fan, close the engine compartment cover, disconnect the exhaust 
tube from the vehicle tailpipe(s), and drive the vehicle from 
dynamometer.
    (xiii) The CVS or CFV may be turned off, if desired.

Sec. 86.160-00  Exhaust emission test procedure for SC03 emissions.

    (a) Overview. The dynamometer operation consists of a single, 594 
second test on the SCO3 driving schedule, as described in appendix I, 
paragraph (h), of this part. The vehicle is preconditioned, in 
accordance with Sec. 86.132-00 of this subpart, to bring the vehicle to 
a warmed-up stabilized condition. This preconditioning is followed by a 
10 minute vehicle soak (engine off) that proceeds directly into the SC03 
driving schedule, during which continuous proportional samples of 
gaseous emissions are collected for analysis. The entire test, including 
the preconditioning driving, vehicle soak, and SC03 official test cycle, 
is either conducted in an environmental test facility or under test 
conditions that simulates testing in an environmental test cell (see 
Sec. 86.162-00 (a) for a discussion of simulation procedure approvals). 
The environmental test facility must be capable of providing the 
following nominal ambient test conditions of: 95  deg.F air temperature, 
100 grains of water/pound of dry air (approximately 40 percent relative 
humidity), a solar heat load intensity of 850 W/m2, and 
vehicle cooling air flow proportional to vehicle speed. Section 86.161-
00 discusses the minimum facility requirements and corresponding control 
tolerances for air conditioning ambient test conditions. The vehicle's 
air conditioner is operated or appropriately simulated for the duration 
of the test procedure (except for the vehicle 10 minute soak), including 
the preconditioning. For gasoline-fueled Otto-cycle vehicles, the 
composite samples collected in bags are analyzed for THC, CO, 
CO2, CH4, and NOX. For petroleum-fueled 
diesel-cycle vehicles, THC is sampled and analyzed continuously 
according to the provisions of Sec. 86.110. Parallel bag samples of 
dilution air are analyzed for THC, CO, CO2, CH4, 
and NOX.
    (b) Dynamometer activities. (1) All official air conditioning tests 
shall be run on a large single roll electric dynamometer or an 
equivalent dynamometer configuration that satisfies the requirements of 
Sec. 86.108-00.
    (2) Position (vehicle can be driven) the test vehicle on the 
dynamometer and restrain.

[[Page 524]]

    (3) Required SC03 schedule test dynamometer inertia weight class 
selections are determined by the test vehicles test weight basis and 
corresponding equivalent weight as listed in the tabular information of 
Sec. 86.129-00(a) and discussed in Sec. 86.129-00 (e) and (f).
    (4) Set the dynamometer test inertia weight and roadload horsepower 
requirements for the test vehicle (see Sec. 86.129-00 (e) and (f)). The 
dynamometer's horsepower adjustment settings shall be set such that the 
force imposed during dynamometer operation matches actual road load 
force at all speeds.
    (5) The vehicle speed as measured from the dynamometer rolls shall 
be used. A speed vs. time recording, as evidence of dynamometer test 
validity, shall be supplied at request of the Administrator.
    (6) The drive wheel tires may be inflated up to a gauge pressure of 
45 psi (310 kPa), or the manufacturer's recommended pressure if higher 
than 45 psi, in order to prevent tire damage. The drive wheel tire 
pressure shall be reported with the test results.
    (7) The driving distance, as measured by counting the number of 
dynamometer roll or shaft revolutions, shall be determined for the test.
    (8) Four-wheel drive vehicles will be tested in a two-wheel drive 
mode of operation. Full-time four-wheel drive vehicles will have one set 
of drive wheels temporarily disengaged by the vehicle manufacturer. 
Four-wheel drive vehicles which can be manually shifted to a two-wheel 
mode will be tested in the normal on-highway two-wheel drive mode of 
operation.
    (c) Vehicle and test activities for testing in a full environmental 
cell. The SFTP air conditioning test in an environmental test cell is 
composed of the following sequence of activities. Alternative procedures 
which appropriately simulate full environmental cell testing may be 
approved under the provisions of Secs. 86.162-00(a) and 86.163-00.
    (1) Drain and fill the vehicle's fuel tank to 40 percent capacity 
with test fuel. If a vehicle has gone through the drain and fuel 
sequence less than 72 hours previously and has remained under laboratory 
ambient temperature conditions, this drain and fill operation can be 
omitted (see Sec. 86.132-00(c)(2)(ii)).
    (2)(i) Position the variable speed cooling fan in front of the test 
vehicle with the vehicle's hood down. This air flow should provide 
representative cooling at the front of the test vehicle (air 
conditioning condenser and engine) during the SC03 driving schedule. See 
Sec. 86.161-00(e) for a discussion of cooling fan specifications.
    (ii) In the case of vehicles with rear engine compartments (or if 
this front location provides inadequate engine cooling), an additional 
cooling fan shall be placed in a position to provide sufficient air to 
maintain vehicle cooling. The fan capacity shall normally not exceed 
5300 cfm (2.50 m3/s). If, however, it can be demonstrated 
that during road operation the vehicle receives additional cooling, and 
that such additional cooling is needed to provide a representative test, 
the fan capacity may be increased or additional fans used if approved in 
advance by the Administrator.
    (3) Close all vehicle windows.
    (4) Connect the emission test sampling system to the vehicle's 
exhaust tail pipe(s).
    (5)(i) Set the environmental test cell ambient test conditions to 
the conditions defined in Sec. 86.161-00.
    (ii) Turn on the solar heating system.
    (iii) All vehicle test phases of preconditioning, soak, and the 
official SC03 test cycle are to be performed in this set of ambient test 
conditions.
    (6) Set the air conditioning system controls as follows:
    (i) A/C mode setting at Maximum.
    (ii) Airflow setting at Recirculate, if so equipped.
    (iii) Fan setting at Highest setting.
    (iv) A/C Temperature setting at full cool (for automatic systems set 
at 72  deg.F).
    (v) Air conditioning controls should be placed in the ``on'' 
position prior to vehicle starting so that the air conditioning system 
is active whenever the engine is running.
    (7) Start the vehicle (with air conditioning system on) and conduct 
a preconditioning cycle as discussed in Sec. 86.132-00(o)(1).
    (i) If engine stalling should occur during any air conditioning test 
cycle

[[Page 525]]

operation, follow the provisions of Sec. 86.136-90 (Engine starting and 
restarting).
    (ii) For manual transmission vehicles, the vehicle shall be shifted 
according the provisions of Sec. 86.128-00.
    (8) Following the preconditioning cycle, the test vehicle (and 
consequently the air conditioning system) and cooling fan(s) are turned 
off and the vehicle is allowed to soak in the ambient conditions of 
paragraph (c)(5) of this section for 10 # 1 minutes.
    (9) Start engine (with air conditioning system also running). 
Fifteen seconds after the engine starts, place vehicle in gear.
    (10) Twenty seconds after the engine starts, begin the initial 
vehicle acceleration of the driving schedule.
    (11) Operate the vehicle according to the SC03 driving schedule, as 
described in appendix I, paragraph (h), of this part.
    (12) Turn the engine off 2 seconds after the end of the last 
deceleration.
    (d) Exhaust Emission Measurement Activities. The following 
activities are performed, when applicable, in order to meet the timing 
of the vehicle test and environmental facility activities.
    (1) Perform the test bench sampling calibration sequence outlined in 
Sec. 86.140-94 prior to or in conjunction with each series of exhaust 
emission measurements.
    (2) With the sample selector valves in the ``standby'' position, 
connect evacuated sample collection bags to the dilute exhaust and 
dilution air sample collection systems.
    (3) Start the CVS (if not already on), the sample pumps, the 
temperature recorder, the vehicle cooling fan, and the heated THC 
analysis recorder (diesel-cycle only). The heat exchanger of the 
constant volume sampler, if used, petroleum-fueled diesel-cycle THC 
analyzer continuous sample line should be preheated to their respective 
operating temperatures before the test begins.
    (4) Adjust the sample flow rates to the desired flow rate and set 
the gas flow measuring devices to zero.
    (i) For gaseous bag samples (except THC samples), the minimum flow 
rate is 0.17 cfm (0.08 liters/sec).
    (ii) For THC samples, the minimum FID (or HFID in the case of 
diesel-cycle vehicles) flow rate is 0.066 cfm (0.031 1/sec).
    (iii) CFV sample flow rate is fixed by the venturi design.
    (5) Attach the exhaust tube to the vehicle tailpipe(s).
    (6) Start the gas flow measuring device, position the sample

the dilution air sample bag, turn on the petroleum-fueled diesel-cycle 
THC analyzer system integrator, mark the recorder chart, and record both 
gas meter or flow measurement instrument readings, if applicable.
    (7) Start the engine (with air conditioning system also running). 
Fifteen seconds after the engine starts, place vehicle in gear.

vehicle acceleration of the driving schedule.
    (9) Operate the vehicle according to the SC03 driving schedule.
    (10) Turn the engine off 2 seconds after the end of the last 
deceleration.
    (11) Five seconds after the engine stops running, simultaneously 
turn off gas flow measuring device No. 1 (and the petroleum-fueled 
diesel hydrocarbon integrator No. 1 and mark the petroleum-fueled diesel 
hydrocarbon recorder chart if applicable) and position the sample 
selector valves to the ``standby'' position. Record the measured roll or 
shaft revolutions and the No. 1 gas meter reading or flow measurement

    (12) As soon as possible, transfer the exhaust and dilution air bag 
samples to the analytical system and process the samples according to 
Sec. 86.140 obtaining a stabilized reading of the bag exhaust sample on 
all analyzers within 20 minutes of the end of the sample collection 
phase of the test.
    (13) Immediately after the end of the sample period, turn off the 
cooling fan, close the engine compartment cover, disconnect the exhaust 
tube from the vehicle tailpipe(s), and drive the vehicle from

Sec. 86.161-00   Air conditioning environmental test facility ambient requirements.

    The goal of an air conditioning test facility is to simulate the 
impact of an ambient heat load on the power requirements of the 
vehicle's air conditioning compressor while operating on a specific 
driving cycle. The environmental facility control elements that are 
discussed are ambient air temperature and humidity, minimum test cell 
size, solar heating, and vehicle frontal air flow.
    (a) Ambient air temperature. (1) Ambient air temperature is 
controlled, within the test cell, during all phases of the air 
conditioning test sequence to 95  2  deg.F on average and 95 
 5eg;F as an instantaneous measurement.
    (2) Air temperature is recorded continuously at a minimum of 30 
second intervals. Records of cell air temperatures and values of average 
test temperatures are maintained by the manufacturer for all 
certification related programs.
    (b) Ambient humidity. (1) Ambient humidity is controlled, within the 
test cell, during all phases of the air conditioning test sequence to an 
average of 100  grains of water/pound of dry air.
    (2) Humidity is recorded continuously at a minimum of 30 second 
intervals. Records of cell humidity and values of average test humidity 
are maintained by the manufacturer for all certification related 
programs.
    (c) Minimum test cell size. (1) The recommended minimum 
environmental exhaust emission test cell size is width 20 feet, length 
40 feet, and height 10 feet.
    (2) Test cells with smaller size dimensions may be approved by the 
Administrator if it can be shown that all of the ambient test condition 
performance requirements are satisfied.
    (d) Solar heat loading. (1)(i) Acceptable types of radiant energy 
emitters that may be used for simulating solar heat load are:
    (A) Metal halide;
    (B) Quartz halogen with dichroic mirrors; and
    (C) Sodium iodide.
    (ii) The Administrator will approve other types of radiant energy 
emitters if the manufacturer can show they satisfy the requirements of 
this section.
    (2) The height of the minimal cell size will dictate the type of 
radiant energy source that will satisfy the spectral distribution and 
uniformity definitions of this section.
    (3) Radiant energy specifications. (i) Simulated solar radiant 
energy intensity is determined as an average of the two points measured 
at:
    (A) Centerline of the test vehicle at the base of the windshield.
    (B) Centerline of the vehicle at the base of the rear window (truck 
and van location defined as bottom of vertical window or where an 
optional window would be located).
    (ii) The radiant energy intensity set point is 850 45 
watts/square meter.
    (iii) The definition of an acceptable spectral distribution is 
contained in the following table:

                 Definition of the Spectral Distribution

------------------------------------------------------------------------
Note: Filter the UV region between 280 and 320 wave lengths.

    (iv) The angle of incidence of radiant energy is defined as 90 
degrees from the test cell floor.
    (v) The requirements for measuring the uniformity of radiant energy 
are:
    (A) The radiant energy uniformity tolerance is 15 
percent of the radiant energy intensity set point of 850 watts/square 
meter.
    (B) The uniformity of radiant energy intensity is measured at each 
point of

[[Page 527]]

a 0.5 meter grid over the entire footprint of the test vehicle at the 
elevation of one meter including the footprint edges.
    (C) Radiant energy uniformity must be checked at least every 500 
hours of emitter usage or every six months depending on which covers the 
shorter time period; and every time major changes in the solar 
simulation hardware occur.
    (vi) The radiant energy intensity measurement instrument 
specifications (minimum) are:
    (A) Sensitivity of 9 microvolts per watt/square meter;
    (B) Response time of 1 second;
    (C) Linearity of 0.5 percent; and
    (D) Cosine of 1 percent from normalization 0-70 degree 
zenith angle.
    (e) Vehicle frontal air flow. The Administrator will approve frontal 
air flow based on ``blower in box'' technology as an acceptable 
simulation of environmental air flow cooling for the air conditioning 
compressor and engine, provided the following requirements are 
satisfied.
    (1) The minimum air flow nozzle discharge area must be equal or 
exceed the vehicle frontal inlet area. Optimum discharge area is 18 
square feet (4.25 x 4.25), however, other sizes can be used.
    (2) Air flow volumes must be proportional to vehicle speed. With the 
above optimum discharge size, the fan volume would vary from 0 cubic 
feet/minute (cfm) at 0 mph to approximately 95,000 cfm at 60 mph. If 
this fan is also the only source of cell air circulation or if fan 
operational mechanics make the 0 mph air flow requirement impractical, 
air flow of 2 mph or less will be allowed at 0 mph vehicle speed.
    (3) The fan air flow velocity vector perpendicular to the axial flow 
velocity vector shall be less than 10 percent of the mean velocity 
measured at fan speeds corresponding to vehicle speeds of 20 and 40 mph.
    (4)(i) Fan axial air flow velocity is measured two feet from nozzle 
outlet at each point of a one foot grid over the entire discharge area.
    (ii) The uniformity of axial flow tolerance is 20 percent of the fan 
speeds corresponding to vehicle speeds of 20 and 40 mph.
    (5) The instrument used to verify the air velocity must have an 
accuracy of 2 percent of the measured air flow speed.
    (6) The fan discharge nozzle must be located 2 to 3 feet from the 
vehicle and 0 to 6 inches above the test cell floor during air 
conditioning testing. This applies to non-wind tunnel environmental test 
cells only.
    (7) The design specifications discussed in paragraphs (e)(1) through 
(e)(5) of this section must be verified by the manufacturer prior to 
conducting certification air conditioning tests.

recordkeeping requirements and will not become effective until approval 
has been given by the Office of Management and Budget.



Sec. 86.162-00  Approval of alternative air conditioning test simulations and descriptions of AC1 and AC2.

    The alternative air conditioning test procedures AC1 and AC2 are 
approved by the Administrator for all light-duty vehicles and light-duty 
trucks only for the model years of 2000, 2001, and 2002. To obtain 
Administrator approval of other simulation test procedures a 
manufacturer must satisfy the requirements of paragraph (a) of this 
section and meet the requirements of Sec. 86.163-00. Air conditioning 
tests AC1 and AC2 are simulations of the environmental test cell air 
conditioning test discussed in Sec. 86.160-00. AC1 simulates, in 
standard test cell ambient conditions and with the air conditioning off, 
the exhaust emission results of air conditioning operation in an 
environmental test cell by adding additional power requirements to 
roadload dynamometer requirements. AC2 simulates, in standard test cell 
ambient conditions and with the air conditioning controls in the heat 
position, the exhaust emission results of air conditioning operation in 
an environmental test cell by adding a heat load to the passenger 
compartment. The only differences between the test activities described 
in Sec. 86.160-00 and those for AC1 and AC2 occur as the result of how 
the effect of the environmental cell ambient test conditions, defined in 
Sec. 86.160-00(c)(5)(i), are simulated in a standard test cell nominal

[[Page 528]]

ambient conditions of 76  deg.F and 50 grains of water/pound of dry air. 
Paragraph (a) of this section discusses the procedure by which a 
manufacturer can obtain Administrator approval of other air conditioning 
test simulation procedures. Paragraph (b) of this section describes the 
AC1 test procedure and paragraph (c) of this section describes the AC2 
test procedure.
    (a) Upon petition from a manufacturer or upon the Agency's own 
initiative, the Administrator will approve a simulation of the 
environmental cell for air conditioning test (SC03) described in 
Sec. 86.160-00 providing that the procedure can be run by the 
Administrator for SEA and in-use enforcement testing and providing that 
the criteria of paragraphs (a)(1)(2), and (3) of this section are 
satisfied.
    (1) In deciding whether approvals will be granted, the Administrator 
may consider data showing how well the simulation matches environmental 
cell test data for the range of vehicles to be covered by the simulation 
including items such as the tailpipe emissions, air conditioning 
compressor load, and fuel economy.
    (2) The Administrator has approved test procedures AC1 and AC2 for 
only the model years of 2000, 2001, and 2002.
    (3) Excluding the AC1 and AC2 procedures described in paragraphs (b) 
and (c) of this section for model years 2000, 2001, and 2002, for any 
simulation approved under paragraph (a) of this section, the 
manufacturer must agree to be subject to an ongoing yearly correlation 
spot check as described in Sec. 86.163-00.
    (4) Once a simulation is approved and used by a manufacturer for 
testing for a given vehicle, EPA agrees to use the simulation test 
procedure for all official testing conducted on that vehicle by the 
Agency for certification, SEA, and recall purposes, excluding spot check 
testing and vehicles which fail the spot check criteria as described in 
Sec. 86.163-00.
    (5) EPA will moniter the aggregate results of spot check testing and 
full environmental test cells. If EPA determines, based on such 
aggregate results, that any simulation (other than the AC1 and AC2 
procedures described in paragraphs (b) and (c) of this section for the 
2000, 2001, and 2002 model years) is producing test results consistantly 
below those from a full environmental test cell, EPA may review its 
approval of the simulation.
    (b) AC1 test procedure. (1) Section 86.160-00(a) is applicable to 
the AC1 test procedure except for the discussion of the environmental 
test requirements. The AC1 test procedure simulates the effect of air 
conditioning operation in the environmental cell test conditions by 
adding the measured horsepower of the air conditioning system 
compressor, converted to an equivalent roadload component, to the normal 
dynamometer roadload horsepower.
    (2) Section 86.160-00(b) is applicable to the AC1 test procedure 
except that the dynamometer horsepower settings procedure of 
Sec. 86.160-00(b)(4) is expanded to include a horsepower increase 
adjustment.
    (i) The following describes one acceptable method of obtaining the 
required compressor horsepower and the corresponding roadload equivalent 
horsepower adjustment. Air compressor horsepower is measured during a 
SC03 air conditioning test cycle while operating in an environmental 
test cell as described in Sec. 86.160-00.
    (A) Install an air conditioning (A/C) compressor with a strain-
gauged input shaft that measures shaft torque in foot pounds. Other 
measurement techniques that produce data that can be shown will estimate 
A/C compressor horsepower are also acceptable.
    (B) Obtain the engine crankshaft to A/C compressor pulley diameter 
(D) ratio (ACPR) as:

ACPR=D(crankshaft pulley)/D(A/C pulley)

    (C) Record the following parameters, as a function of accumulated 
time (t), at least once per second from second 0 to second 600 while 
driving the SC03 cycle with the air conditioning system operating.
    (1) Engine revolutions/minute (ERPMt).
    (2) Compressor input torque in foot pounds (CTt).
    (D) For each second of data recorded from paragraph (b)(2)(i)(C) of 
this section, calculate compressor horsepower (CHPt) as:

CHPt=(CTt)(ERPMt)(ACPR)/5252


[[Page 529]]


    (E) For each second of accumulated time and the data of paragraph 
(b)(2)(i) (B) and (D) of this section, determine a value of air 
conditioning compressor roadload force (ACRFt) that is 
equivalent to the air conditioning compressor force on the engine as:

ACRFt=(CHPt)(375)/Vt.

where:

Vt equals vehicle SC03 cycle speed in miles per hour for each 
accumulated second of time, and 375 is a units constant to convert 
(ACRFt) to foot pounds of force.

    (F) Values of (ACRFt) at each second of time are added to 
the corresponding roadload dynamometer force requirements of 
Sec. 86.129-00(e) to obtain an approximation of the force generated by 
the vehicle engine during a SC03 test in an environmental test cell.
    (ii) The method by which the values of (ACRFt) additional 
dynamometer load is applied by the dynamometer to the vehicle tire 
surface will vary with dynamometer design and its force simulation 
capabilities. If the dynamometer has grade simulation capabilities, 
increasing load by simulating varying grades is one acceptable method of 
applying (ACRFt) values.
    (iii) For those calculated values of (ACRFt) which exceed 
the force capacity of the dynamometer being used for simulation test, 
replace the calculated values with the maximum road force capacity of 
the dynamometer. The Administrator would normally not expect 
(ACRFt) values to exceed dynamometer capability for time 
periods of more than a second.
    (iv) Values of (ACRFt) for application to AC1 testing 
should be an average of at least two runs unless the manufacturer can 
demonstrate to the Administrator that one run repeatability is 
acceptable.
    (v) Values of (ACRFt) for application to AC1 testing are 
to be obtained for each vehicle and engine family combination. If only 
one vehicle configuration is selected to represent an engine family, the 
selected configuration is the vehicle expected to produce the highest 
air conditioning load requirements. A manufacturer may petition the 
Administrator to reduce the number of (ACRFt) test vehicles 
for their product line, if they can show that the highest air 
conditioning loads are covered with a lesser number than one per family.
    (vi) Test results, calculations, and dynamometer setting values 
associated with making these roadload determinations are to be retained 
by the manufacturer as part of their certification records.
    (3) Perform the SC03 air conditioning test sequence as described in 
Sec. 86.160-00(c) with the following exceptions:
    (i) The variable speed cooling fan of Sec. 86.160-00(c)(2)(ii) is 
replaced with the fixed speed cooling fan requirements of Sec. 86.159-
00(b).
    (ii) The position of vehicle windows is optional.
    (iii) The nominal ambient air test conditions of Sec. 86.160-
00(b)(5)(i) (A) and (B) are replaced with 76  deg.F and 50 grains of 
water/pound of dry air and the solar heat load of Sec. 86.160-
00(b)(5)(i)(C) is omitted.
    (iv) The air conditioning system is not operated during the SC03 
test cycle. Operation of the air conditioning during preconditioning 
test cycles is optional.
    (4) Section 86.160-00(d) is applicable to the AC1 test procedure.
    (5) NOX humidity correction. Calculated NOX 
exhaust emissions from air conditioning tests conducted in a standard 
test cell at a nominal 50 grains of water/pound of dry air are corrected 
for humidity to 75 grains of water/pound of dry air (see the 
relationship of Sec. 86.144-94(c)(7)(iv)(B)).
    (c) AC2 test procedure. (1) section 86.160-00(a) is applicable the 
AC2 test procedure except for the discussion of the environmental test 
requirements. The AC2 test procedure simulates the effect of air 
conditioning operation in the environmental cell test conditions by 
adding heat from the vehicle's heating system to the interior of the 
passenger compartment.
    (2) Section 86.160-00(b) is applicable to the AC2 test procedure.
    (3) Section 86.160-00(c) is applicable except for the following:
    (i) Section 86.160-00(c)(3) is applicable except the drivers side 
front window is left open and all the others are closed.
    (ii) The nominal ambient air test conditions of Sec. 86.160-
00(b)(5)(i) (A) and (B) are replaced with 76  deg.F and 50 grains of 
water/pound of dry air and

[[Page 530]]

the solar heat load of Sec. 86.160-00(b)(5)(i)(C) is omitted.
    (iii) The control position instruction of Sec. 86.160-00(c)(6)(iv) 
is replaced with set the A/C temperature control to the highest warm 
position (maximum for automatic systems).
    (4) Section 86.160-00(d) is applicable to the AC2 test procedure.
    (5) NOx humidity correction. Calculated NOX 
exhaust emissions from air conditioning tests conducted in a standard 
test cell at a nominal 50 grains of water/pound of dry air are corrected 
for humidity to 75 grains of water/pound of dry air (see the 
relationship of Sec. 86.144-94(c)(7)(iv)(B)).

environmental cell for air conditioning test (SC03) described in 
Sec. 86.160-00 providing that the procedure can be run by the

was added. This section contains information collection and 
recordkeeping requirements and will not become effective until approval 
has been given by the Office of Management and Budget.



Sec. 86.163-00  Spot check correlation procedures for vehicles tested using a simulation of the environmental test cell for air conditioning emission testing.

    This section is applicable for vehicles which are tested using a 
simulation of the environmental test cell approved under the provisions 
of Sec. 86.162-00(a).
    (a) The Administrator may select up to five emission data vehicles 
(one emission data vehicle for small volume manufacturers), including 
vehicles submitted for running change approval, each model year for any 
manufacturer undergoing the spot checking procedures of this section.
    (b) Testing conducted under this section (including testing 
performed in an environmental test cell) will be considered as official 
data as described in Sec. 86.091-29 and used in determining compliance 
with the standards. Such testing must comply with all applicable 
emission standards of subpart A of this part. Retests for the purpose of 
emission compliance will be allowed using the procedures described in 
Sec. 86.091-29.
    (c) Spot check procedures. (1) Subject to the limitations of 
paragraphs (a) and (d)(2)(iii) of this section, the Administrator may 
require that one or more of the test vehicles which use a simulation 
rather than actual testing in an environmental test cell for air 
conditioning emission testing be submitted at a place the Administrator 
will designate for air conditioning emission testing in an environmental 
test cell as

[[Page 531]]

described in Sec. 86.160-00. The Administrator may order this testing to 
be conducted at a manufacturer facility. All manufacturers which use a 
simulation instead of environmental cell testing must have access to an 
environment test cell meeting the requirements of Sec. 86.161-00 to 
perform this testing.
    (2) An air conditioning emission test will be performed as described 
in Sec. 86.162-00 in a full environmental test cell.
    (i) The results of the original simulation test and the full 
environmental test cell required in paragraph (c)(1) of this section are 
compared. In order to pass the spot check, the test results must pass 
both the following two criteria:
    (A) The NOX emission results of the simulation test must 
be at least 85% of the NOX emission results of the 
environmental chamber test.
    (B) The fuel consumption of the simulation test must be at least 95% 
of the fuel consumption of the environmental chamber test.
    (ii) If either of two criteria of paragraph (c)(2)(i) of this 
section were not met, a retest is allowed. The manufacturer may elect to 
conduct either a retest of the simulation procedure or the environmental 
chamber testing. In order to pass the spot check, the test results must 
pass both the following two criteria using the retest test result.
    (A) The NOX emission results of the simulation test must 
be at least 85% of the NOX emission results of the 
environmental chamber test.
    (B) The fuel consumption of the simulation test must be at least 95% 
of the fuel consumption of the environmental chamber test.
    (iii) If either of the two criteria of paragraph (c)(2)(ii) of this 
section were not met, a second retest is allowed. The procedure not 
selected for the first retest must be used for the second retest, 
yielding two test results for each procedure. In order to pass the spot 
check, the test results must pass both the following two criteria using 
the average test result for each procedure:
    (A) The NOX emission results of the simulation test must 
be at least 85% of the NOX emission results of the 
environmental chamber test.
    (B) The fuel consumption of the simulation test must be at least 95% 
of the fuel consumption of the environmental chamber test.
    (iv) If the spot check criteria have not passed after any of the 
initial test, the first retest, or the second retest the spot check is 
considered failed.
    (d) Consequences of failing a spot check. (1) If the emission 
results of the testing using the environmental test chamber passes all 
the applicable standards, those test results may be used to obtain a 
certificate of conformity.
    (2) The Administrator will allow up to 60 days for the manufacturer 
to supply additional data addressing the correlation of the simulation 
with a full environmental test cell.
    (i) If that data prove to the satisfaction of the Administrator that 
the simulation produces results that correlate sufficiently with the 
environmental test chamber, the Administrator may allow the continued 
use of the simulation.
    (ii) Otherwise, the Administrator will determine that the simulation 
fails to meet adequate correlation levels with full environmental 
testing. As a consequence of this finding, all future air conditioning 
emission testing on the population of vehicles represented by the 
failing-spot-check test vehicle (which may include past model year 
configurations) will be conducted using an environment chamber or a 
different (or corrected) approved simulation procedure.
    (iii) For each vehicle that fails a spot check, the Administrator 
may select up to two additional vehicles to test for the spot check that 
do not count against the five vehicle limit of paragraph (a) of this 
section.
    (e) EPA will monitor the aggregate results of spot check testing and 
full environmental test cells. If EPA determines, based on such 
aggregate results, that any simulation (other than the AC1 and AC2 
procedures described in paragraphs (b) and (c) of this section for the 
2000, 2001, and 2002 model years) is producing test results consistently 
below those from a full environmental

of Sec. 86.144-94(c)(7)(iv) must be modified when adjusting SC03 
environmental test cell NOX results to 100 grains of water 
(see paragraph (d) of this section). These provisions provide the 
procedures for calculating mass emission results of each regulated 
exhaust pollutant for the test schedules of FTP, US06, and SC03.
    (b) The provisions of Sec. 86.144-94(a) are applicable to this 
section. These provisions provide the procedures for determining the 
weighted mass emissions for the FTP test schedule (Ywm).
    (c)(1) When the test vehicle is equipped with air conditioning, the 
final reported test results for the SFTP composite (NMHC+NOX) 
and optional composite CO standards shall be computed by the following 
formulas.
    (i) YWSFTP=0.35(YFTP)+0.37(YSC03) 
0.28(YUS06)

Where:
    (A) YWSFTP=Mass emissions per mile for a particular 
pollutant weighted in terms of the contributions from the FTP, SC03, and 
US06 schedules. Values of YWSFTP are obtained for each of the 
exhaust emissions of NMHC, NOX, and CO.
    (B) YFTP=Weighted mass emissions per mile (Ywm) based on 
the measured driving distance of the FTP test schedule.
    (C) YSC03=Calculated mass emissions per mile based on the 
measured driving distance of the SC03 test schedule.
    (D) YUS06=Calculated mass emissions per mile based on the 
measured driving distance of the US06 test schedule.
    (ii) Composite (NMHC+NOX) = YWSFTP(NMHC) + 
YWSFTP(NOX)

Where:
    (A) YWSFTP(NMHC)=results of paragraph (c)(1)(i) of this 
section for NMHC.
    (B) YWSFTP(NOX)=results of paragraph (c)(1)(i) 
of this section for NOX.
    (2) When the test vehicle is not equipped with air conditioning, the 
relationship of paragraph (c)(1)(i) of this section is:
    (i) YWSFTP=0.72(YFTP)+0.28(YUS06)

Where:
    (A) YWSFTP=Mass emissions per mile for a particular 
pollutant weighted in terms of the contributions from the FTP and US06 
schedules. Values of YWSFTP are obtained for each of the 
exhaust emissions of NMHC, NOX, and CO.
    (B) YFTP=Weighted mass emissions per mile (Ywm) based on 
the measured driving distance of the FTP test schedule.
    (C) YUS06=Calculated mass emissions per mile based on the 
measured driving distance of the US06 test schedule.
    (ii) Composite (NMHC+NOX) = YWSFTP(NMHC) + 
YWSFTP(NOX)

Where:
    (A) YWSFTP(NMHC)=results of paragraph (c)(2)(i) of this 
section for NMHC.
    (B) YWSFTP(NOX)=results of paragraph (c)(2)(i) 
of this section for NOX.
    (d) The NOX humidity correction factor for adjusting 
NOX test results to the environmental test cell air 
conditioning ambient condition of 100 grains of water/pound of dry air 
is:

KH (100)=0.8825/[1-0.0047(H-75)]

Where:

H=measured test humidity in grains of water/pound of dry air.

    (b) A dynamometer which meets the specifications of Sec. 86.208-
94(a) shall be adjusted to simulate the operation of a vehicle on the 
road at 20  deg.F (-7  deg.C). Such adjustment may be based on a 
determination of the road load force profile at 20  deg.F (-7  deg.C). 
Alternatively, the adjustment may be based on a 10 percent decrease in 
the target coastdown time that is used for FTP testing.



Sec. 86.230-94  Test sequence: general requirements.

    (a) Sequence steps. Figure C94-1 shows the steps encountered as the 
test vehicle undergoes the procedures subsequently described, to 
determine conformity with the standards set forth.

[[Page 536]]

[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR06OC93.167


    (b) Driving schedule. The Urban Dynamometer Driving Schedule (UDDS) 
test procedure (see Sec. 86.115 and appendix I to this part) is used for 
vehicle preconditioning and testing.
    (c) Ambient temperature level. (1) Ambient temperature levels 
encountered by the test vehicle shall average 20  deg.F5 
deg.F (-7  deg.C2.8  deg.C) and shall not be less than 10 
deg.F (-14  deg.C) nor more than

[[Page 537]]

30  deg.F (-1  deg.C) during vehicle preconditioning, except for 
preconditioning performed in accordance with Sec. 86.232(a)(7), and 
during all emission testing.
    (2) The ambient temperature reported shall be a simple average of 
the test cell temperatures measured at constant intervals no more than 
one minute apart. Before the driving cycle may begin, the test cell 
temperature shall be 20  deg.F3  deg.F (-7 
deg.C1.7  deg.C) when measured in accordance with paragraph 
(e)(2) of this section. The temperature may not exceed 25  deg.F (-4 
deg.C) or fall below 15  deg.F (-9  deg.C) for more than three 
consecutive minutes during the test.
    (d) Vehicle positioning. The vehicle shall be approximately level 
during all phases of the test sequence to prevent abnormal fuel 
distribution.
    (e) Engine compartment cooling. (1) Fixed speed air cooling of the 
engine compartment with the compartment cover open shall be utilized 
during testing that is conducted by the Administrator and, optionally 
for certification testing, by the manufacturer. If a separate movable 
fan is used, it shall be squarely positioned within 12 inches (30.5 
centimeters) of the front of vehicles with front engine compartments. In 
the case of vehicles with rear engine compartments (or if special 
designs make the normal front engine positioning impractical), the 
cooling fan shall be placed in a position to provide sufficient air to 
maintain vehicle cooling. The fan capacity shall normally not exceed 
5,300 cfm (2.50 cubic meters per second). If, however, the manufacturer 
showed (as provided in Sec. 86.135-94(b)) that additional cooling is 
necessary, the fan capacity may be increased or additional fans used if 
approved in advance by the Administrator. The cooling air temperature 
shall be measured at the inlet to the fan.
    (2) In lieu of using a separate fan, an air handling system that is 
integral with the test cell may be used provided comparable air movement 
is obtained. The cooling air temperature shall be measured in the center 
of a vertical plane that is located approximately 2 feet in front of the 
vehicle.
    (3) The manufacturer may use, for certification testing, alternative 
engine compartment cooling fans or systems, including those which 
provide a variable air flow, if the manufacturer has determined that 
comparable results are obtained.
    (f) Heater and defroster usage. The heater and defroster may be used 
at any temperature and fan settings.



Sec. 86.231-94  Vehicle preparation.

    The provisions of Sec. 86.131-90 apply to this subpart.



Sec. 86.232-94  Vehicle preconditioning.

    (a) The vehicle shall be moved to the test area and the following 
operations performed:
    (1) The fuel tank(s) shall be filled to approximately the prescribed 
``tank fuel volume'' with the test fuel specified Sec. 86.213. If the 
existing fuel in the fuel tank(s) does not meet the specifications 
contained in Sec. 86.213, the existing fuel must be drained prior to the 
fuel fill. The test fuel shall be at a temperature less than or equal to 
60  deg.F. For the operations in this paragraph (a)(1), the evaporative 
emission control system shall neither be abnormally purged nor 
abnormally loaded.
    (2) For operation on a 48-inch (1.22 metre) diameter single roll 
dynamometer, the drive wheel tires shall be inflated to the pressure 
recommended by the tire manufacturer. For operation on a twin-roll 
dynamometer, the drive wheel tires may be inflated to a gauge pressure 
of 40 psi (276 kPa). The drive wheel tire pressures shall be reported 
with the test results.
    (3) The fuel in the vehicle shall be stabilized at 20 
F deg.10  deg.F (-7  deg.C5.6  deg.C) prior to 
the start of the driving cycle except when vehicle peconditioning is 
performed in accordance with paragraph (a)(7) of this section.
    (4) The vehicle shall be placed, either by being driven or pushed, 
on a dynamometer and operated through one UDDS cycle.
    (5) For those unusual circumstances where additional preconditioning 
is desired by the manufacturer, such preconditioning may be allowed with 
the advance approval of the Administrator.
    (6) The Administrator may also choose to conduct additional 
preconditioning. The additional preconditioning shall consist of one or

[[Page 538]]

more driving cycles of the UDDS, as described in paragraph (a)(4) of 
this section.
    (7) The manufacturer may, for certification testing, precondition 
vehicles at temperatures above 20  deg.F (-7  deg.C) and with 
temperature tolerances greater than those specified in Sec. 86.230(a) if 
the manufacturer has determined that such preconditioning does not 
decrease CO emissions during the testing specified in Sec. 86.237.
    (b) Within five minutes of completion of preconditioning, the 
vehicle shall be shut off. During this five minute period, the vehicle 
shall not experience ambient temperatures less than 10  deg.F (-12 
deg.C) nor more than 30  deg.F (-1  deg.C).
    (c) One of the following two methods shall be utilized to stabilize 
the vehicle before the emissions test:
    (1) Storing at cold temperatures. The vehicle shall be stored for 
not less than 12 hours nor for more than 36 hours prior to the cold 
start exhaust test. The ambient temperature (dry bulb) during this 
period shall be maintained at an average temperature of 20 
deg.F5  deg.F (-7  deg.C2.8  deg.C) during each 
hour of this period and shall not be less than 10  deg.F (-12  deg.C) 
nor more than 30  deg.F (-1  deg.C). The ambient temperature reported 
shall be a simple average of the test cell temperature measured at 
constant intervals no more than one minute apart. In addition, the 
temperature may not exceed 25  deg.F (-4  deg.C) or fall below 15  deg.F 
(-9  deg.C) for more than three consecutive minutes.
    (2) Force-cooling or warming. (i) The vehicle shall be stored for no 
more than 36 hours prior to cooling or warming for the cold start 
exhaust test. The vehicle shall not be stored at ambient temperatures 
which exceed 86  deg.F (30  deg.C) during this period.
    (ii) Vehicle cooling may be accomplished by either force-cooling or 
force-warming the vehicle to the test temperature. If cooling is 
augmented by fans, the fans shall be placed in a vertical position for 
maximum drive train and engine cooling, not primarily oil pan cooling. 
Fans shall not be placed under the vehicle.
    (iii) The ambient temperature need only be stringently controlled 
after the vehicle has been cooled to 20  deg.F3  deg.F (-7 
deg.C1.7  deg.C), as determined by a representative bulk oil 
temperature. A representative bulk oil temperature is the temperature of 
the oil measured near the middle of the oil, not at the surface or at 
the bottom of the oil pan. If two or more diverse locations in the oil 
are monitored, they must all meet the temperature requirements.
    (iv) The vehicle must be stored for at least one hour after it has 
been cooled to 20  deg.F3  deg.F (-7  deg.C1.7 
deg.C) prior to the cold start exhaust test. The ambient temperature 
(dry bulb) during this period shall average 20  deg.F5 
deg.F (-7  deg.C2.8  deg.C) and shall not be less than 10 
deg.F (-12  deg.C) nor more than 30  deg.F (-1  deg.C). In addition, the 
temperature may not exceed 25  deg.F (-4  deg.C) or fall below 15  deg.F 
(-9  deg.C) for more than three consecutive minutes.
    (d) If the vehicle is stabilized at 20  deg.F (-7  deg.C) in a 
separate area and is moved through a warm area to the test cell, the 
vehicle must be restabilized in the test cell for at least six times the 
period the vehicle is exposed to warmer temperatures. The ambient 
temperature (dry bulb) during this period shall average 20 
deg.F5  deg.F (-7  deg.C2.8  deg.C) and shall 
not be less than 10  deg.F (-12  deg.C) nor more than 30  deg.F (-1 
deg.C). In addition, the temperature may not exceed 25  deg.F (-4 
deg.C) or fall below 15  deg.F (-9  deg.C) for more than three 
consecutive minutes. The maximum time for moving a vehicle through a 
warm area shall be 10 minutes.



Secs. 86.233-94--86.234-94  [Reserved]



Sec. 86.235-94  Dynamometer procedure.

    (a) Overview. The emission sampling is completed over two test 
sequences, a ``cold'' start test after a minimum 12-hour and a maximum 
36-hour soak according to the provisions of Sec. 86.232 and a ``hot'' 
start test following the ``cold'' start test by 10 minutes. Engine 
startup, operation over the UDDS, and engine shut-down make a complete 
cold start test. Engine startup and operation over the first 505 seconds 
of the driving schedule complete the hot start test. The exhaust 
emissions are diluted with ambient air and a continuously proportional 
sample is collected for analysis during each phase. The composite 
samples collected in bags are analyzed for hydrocarbons, carbon

[[Page 539]]

monoxide, carbon dioxide, and, optionally, other pollutants. A parallel 
sample of the dilution air is similarly analyzed for carbon monoxide 
and, optionally, hydrocarbons, carbon dioxide, and oxides of nitrogen.
    (b) As long as an emission sample is not taken, practice runs over 
the prescribed driving schedule may be performed at test point for the 
purpose of finding the minimum throttle action to maintain the proper 
speed-time relationship or to permit sampling system adjustment.
    (c) Humidity should be set low enough to prevent condensation on the 
dynamometer rolls.
    (d) The dynamometer shall be warmed as recommended by the 
dynamometer manufacturer and using procedures or control methods that 
assure stability of the residual frictional horsepower.
    (e) The time between dynamometer warming and the start of the 
emission test shall be no longer than 10 minutes if the dynamometer 
bearings are not independently heated. If the dynamometer bearings are 
independently heated, the emission test shall begin no longer than 20 
minutes after dynamometer warming.
    (f) If the dynamometer horsepower must be adjusted manually, it 
shall be set within one hour prior to the exhaust emission test phase. 
The test vehicle shall not be used to make the adjustment. Dynamometers 
using automatic control of preselectable power settings may be set 
anytime prior to the beginning of the emission test.
    (g) The driving distance, as measured by counting the number of 
dynamometer roll or shaft revolutions, shall be determined for the 
transient cold start, stabilized cold start, and transient hot start 
phases of the test.
    (h) Four-wheel drive vehicles will be tested in a two-wheel drive 
mode of operation. Full-time four-wheel drive vehicles will have one set 
of drive wheels temporarily disengaged by the vehicle manufacturer. 
Four-wheel drive vehicles which can be manually shifted to a two-wheel 
drive mode will be tested in the normal on-highway two-wheel drive mode 
of operation.



Sec. 86.236-94  Engine starting and restarting.

    The provisions of Sec. 86.136 apply to this subpart.



Sec. 86.237-94  Dynamometer test run, gaseous emissions.

    (a) The complete dynamometer test consists of a cold start drive of 
approximately 7.5 miles (12.1 kilometers) and a hot start drive of 
approximately 3.6 miles (5.8 kilometers).
    (b) If the preconditioned vehicle is not already on the dynamometer, 
it shall be pushed into position.
    (c) The vehicle is allowed to stand on the dynamometer during the 
ten minute time period between the cold and hot start test. The cold 
start test is divided into two periods. The first period, representing 
the cold start ``transient'' phase, terminates at the end of the 
deceleration which is scheduled to occur at 505 seconds of the driving 
schedule. The second period, representing the ``stabilized'' phase, 
consists of the remainder of the driving schedule, including engine 
shutdown. The hot start test is identical to the first part or transient 
phase of the cold start test. Therefore, the hot start test terminates 
after the first period (505 seconds) is run.
    (d) The provisions of Sec. 86.137(b) apply to this subpart.

Sec. 86.308-79  Gas specifications.

    (a) Analyzer gases. (1) Calibration gases for the CO and CO2 
analyzers shall have zero grade nitrogen as a diluent. Combined CO and 
CO2 span gases are permitted. Zero grade nitrogen shall be 
the diluent for CO and CO2 span gases.
    (2) Calibration or span gases for the hydrocarbon analyzer shall be 
propane with zero-grade nitrogen as a diluent when testing gasoline-
fueled engines. For Diesel engine tests the diluent shall be zero-grade 
air.
    (3) Calibration or span gases for the NOX analyzer shall 
be NO named as NOX with a maximum NO2 
concentration of 5 percent of the nominal value. Zero-grade nitrogen 
shall be the diluent.
    (4) Zero-grade gases for hydrocarbon analyzers shall be nitrogen 
when testing gasoline-fueled engines and air when testing Diesel 
engines.
    (5) Zero-grade gases for the carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide and 
oxides of nitrogen analyzers shall be either zero-grade air or zero-
grade nitrogen.
    (6) The allowable zero grade gas (air or nitrogen) impurity 
concentrations shall not exceed 2 ppmC hydrocarbon, 10 ppm carbon 
monoxide, 400 ppm carbon dioxide and 1 ppm nitric oxide.
    (7) ``Zero-grade air'' includes artificial ``air'' consisting of a 
blend of nitrogen and oxygen with oxygen concentrations between 18 and 
21 mole percent.
    (b) Calibration gas. Calibration gas values are to be derived from 
NBS ``Standard Reference Materials'' (SRM's) or other gas standards 
approved by the Administrator. The uncertainty of the assigned 
calibration gas values shall not exceed 2.0 percent of the assigned 
value. The uncertainty is defined as the sum of the precision errors (at 
the 90 percent confidence level) and the bias errors. Precision and bias 
errors apply to both the equipment and the derivation procedures.
    (c) Span gas. Span gas values are to be derived from NBS ``Standard 
Reference Materials'' (SRM's) or other gas standards approved by the 
Administrator. The uncertainty of the assigned calibration gas values 
shall not exceed 3.0 percent of the assigned value. The uncertainty is 
defined as the sum of the precision errors (at the 90 percent confidence 
level) and the bias errors. Precision and bias errors apply to both the 
equipment and the derivation procedures.
    (d) Hydrocarbon analyzer fuel--(1) The fuel shall contain 
40plus-minus2 percent hydrogen.

[[Page 543]]

The balance shall be helium. The mixture shall contain less than 2 ppmC 
hydrocarbon.
    (2) Alternate pure hydrogen fuel. Some HFID's are designed to 
operate on pure hydrogen. Generally the HFID fuel is incompatible with 
good relative hydrocarbon response.
    (i) For Diesel engines this fuel is not recommended. However, this 
fuel may be used if the engine manufacturer demonstrates, on each basic 
combustion system (i.e., 4 cycle DI, 2 cycle DI, 4 cycle pre-cup, etc.) 
that an HFID using this fuel produces comparable results to an HFID 
using 40% H2/60% He fuel. These data must be submitted to and 
approved by the Administrator prior to testing. Pure H2 fuel, 
that may be allowed for testing, must contain at least 99.0 percent 
hydrogen and contain less than 2 ppmC hydrocarbon.
    (ii) For gasoline-fueled engines, pure hydrogen fuel for the HFID is 
not allowed.
    (e) Hydrocarbon analyzer burner air. The concentration of oxygen 
must be within 1 mole percent of the oxygen concentration of the burner 
air used in the latest oxygen interference check (%O2 I). If 
the difference in oxygen concentration is greater than 1 mole percent, 
then the oxygen interference must be checked and the analyzer adjusted 
if necessary, to meet the %O2 I requirements. The burner air 
must contain less than 2 ppmC hydrocarbon.
    (f) Oxygen interference check gases shall contain propane with 350 
ppmCplus-minus75 ppmC hydrocarbon. The concentration value 
shall be determined to calibration gas tolerances by chromatographic 
analysis of total hydrocarbons plus impurities or by dynamic blending. 
Nitrogen shall be the predominant diluent with the balance oxygen. 
Blends required for gasoline-fueled and Diesel engine testing are as 
follows:

Sec. 86.309-79  Sampling and analytical system; schematic drawing.

    (a) Any variation from the specifications in this subpart including 
performance specifications and emission detection methods may be used 
only with prior approval by the Administrator.
    (b) Schematic drawing. (1) An example of a sampling and analytical 
system which may be used for testing under this subpart is shown in 
Figure D79-1. All components or parts of components that are wetted by 
the sample or corrosive calibration gases shall be either chemically 
cleaned stainless steel or inert material, e.g. polytetrafluoroethylene 
resin. The use of ``gauge savers'' or ``protectors'' with nonreactive 
diaphragms to reduce dead volumes is permitted. The specific detection 
methods to be used for each exhaust component can be found in 
Sec. 86.316 for CO. Sec. 86.317 for HC, and Sec. 86.318 for 
NOX. Additional components such as instruments, valves, 
solenoids, pumps, switches, etc. may be employed to provide additional 
information and coordinate the functions of the component systems.
    (2) The following requirements must be incorporated in each system 
used for testing under this subpart.
    (i) All analyzers must obtain the sample to be analyzed from the 
same sample line.
    (ii) The sample transport system from the engine exhaust pipe to the 
HC analyzer and the NOX analyzer must be heated as is 
indicated in Figure D79-1.
    (iii) Carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide measurements must be made 
on a dry basis. Specific requirements for the means of drying the sample 
can be found in Sec. 86.309 (b)(5) and Sec. 86.311(e).
    (iv) All NDIR analyzers must have a pressure gauge immediately 
downstream of the analyzer. The gauge tap must be within 2 inches of the 
analyzer exit port. Gauge specifications can be found in 
Sec. 86.309(b)(3).

[[Page 544]]

    (v) All bypass and analyzer flows exiting the analysis system must 
be measured. Capillary flows such as in HFID and CL analyzers are 
excluded. For each ND IR analyzer with a flow meter located upstream of 
the analyzer, an upstream pressure gauge must be used. The gauge tap

    (a) Chart recorders. (1) The minimum chart speed allowed is 3 inches 
per minute for gasoline-fueled engines and 0.5 inches per minute for 
Diesel engines.
    (2) When testing gasoline-fueled engines all chart recorders 
(analyzers, torque, rpm, etc.) shall be provided with Automatic markers 
which indicate one second intervals. Preprinted chart paper (one second 
intervals) may be used in lieu of the automatic markers provided the 
correct chart speed is used.
    (b) Accuracy of temperature measurements. (1) The following 
temperature measurements shall be accurate to within 1.2  deg.C:
    (i) Temperature measurements used in calculating the engine intake 
humidity:
    (ii) The temperature of the fuel in volume measuring flow rate 
devices;
    (iii) The temperature of the sample within the water trap(s).
    (2) All other temperature measurements shall be accurate within 2.5 
deg.C.
    (c) Intake air humidity and temperature measurements. (1) Humidity 
conditioned air supply. Air that has had its absolute humidity altered 
is considered humidity-conditioned air. For this type of intake air 
supply, the humidity measurements must be made within the intake air 
supply system, and after the humidity conditioning has taken place.
    (2) Nonconditioned air supply. Humidity measurements in non-
conditioned intake air supply systems must be made in the intake air 
stream entering the supply system. Alternatively, the humidity 
measurements can be measured within the intake air supply stream.
    (3) Engine intake air temperature measurement must be made within 48 
inches of the engine. The measurement location must be made either in 
the supply system or in the air stream entering the supply system.
    (d) Sample component surface temperature. For each component (pump, 
sample line section, filters, etc.) in the heated portion of the 
sampling system that has a separate source of power or heating element, 
use engineering judgment to locate the coolest portion of that component 
and monitor the temperature at that location. If several components are 
within an oven, then only the surface temperature of the component with 
the largest thermal mass and the oven temperature need be measured.
    (e) If water is removed by condensation, the sample gas temperature 
or sample dew point must be monitored either within the water trap or 
downstream. It may not exceed 7  deg.C (45  deg.F).

47 FR 49807, Nov. 2, 1982]



Sec. 86.312-79  Dynamometer and engine equipment specifications.

    (a) Dynamometer. (1) The dynamometer test stand and other 
instruments for measurement of power output shall be accurate to within 
2 percent of point at all power settings above 10 percent of full-scale. 
Below 10 percent of full-scale the accuracy shall be within 5 percent of 
point. The dynamometer must be capable of performing the test cycle 
described in Sec. 86,335 or Sec. 86.336. Dynamometers used for testing 
gasoline-fueled engines must have sufficient motoring capability to meet 
the test requirements. A 60-tooth wheel in combination with a frequency 
counter shall be considered an absolute standard for engine speed.

[[Page 549]]

    (2) Dynamometer calibration weights. A minimum of 6 calibration 
weights for each range used are required. The weights must be equally 
spaced and traceable to within 0.5 percent of NBS weights. Laboratories 
located in foreign countries may certify calibration weights to local 
government bureau standards.
    (b) Engine cooling. Means of engine cooling which will maintain the 
engine operating temperatures (e.g., intake air, oil, water, etc.) at 
approximately the same temperature as specified by the manufacturer 
shall be used. Auxiliary fan(s) may be used to maintain engine cooling 
during operation on the dynamometer.
    (c) Exhaust system. (1) When testing gasoline-fueled engines:
    (i) A chassis-type exhaust system including muffler(s) shall be 
used. The exhaust system must have a single tail pipe. For engines 
designed for a dual exhaust system, a standard or specially fabricated 
``Y'' pipe may be used. The ``Y'' pipe may be located upstream of a 
single muffler or downstream of a single muffler or downstream of dual 
mufflers. The potential increase in backpressure due to the use of a 
single tail pipe instead of dual pipes may be compensated for by using 
larger than standard exhaust system components downstream of the ``Y'' 
pipe. For systems with the ``Y'' pipe upstream of the muffler, the 
backpressure at the exhaust manifold exit with the single exhaust system 
must be comparable to the standard dual exhaust system under the test 
conditions specified in Sec. 86.335.
    (ii) For all catalyst systems the distance from the exhaust manifold 
flange(s) to the catalyst shall be the same as in the vehicle 
configuration unless the manufacturer provides temperature data showing 
equivalent performance at another location.
    (iii) For catalyst systems, the probe shall be located in the single 
exhaust pipe and from 2 to 10 feet downstream of the catalyst(s) and at 
least 2 feet downstream of the ``Y'' intersection of any ``Y'' pipe (if 
used).
    (iv) For noncatalyst systems, the probe shall be located in the 
single exhaust pipe downstream of the muffler(s) and from 3 to 20 feet 
downstream from the exhaust manifold flange or turbocharger exit flange. 
The probe shall also be at least 2 feet downstream of the ``Y'' 
intersection of any ``Y'' pipe (if used).
    (v) For all exhaust systems, the probe shall be located at least 24 
inches from the end of the tail pipe. Additional exhaust pipe may be 
added to the tail pipe to meet the specification.
    (2) When testing Diesel engines, a noninsulated exhaust system 
extending 15plus-minus5 feet from the exhaust manifold, or 
the crossover junction in the case of Vee engines, shall be used. The 
exhaust back pressure must be within 0.2 inch Hg. of the upper limit at 
maximum rated horsepower, as established by the engine manufacturer in 
his sales and service literature for vehicle application. A conventional 
automotive muffler of a size and type commonly used with the engine 
being tested shall be employed in the exhaust system during smoke 
emission testing. The terminal 2 feet of the exhaust pipe shall be a 
circular cross section and be free of elbows and bends. The end of the 
pipe shall be cut off squarely. The terminal 2 feet of the exhaust pipe 
shall have a nominal inside diameter in accordance with the engine being 
tested, as specified below:

    (a) The fuel flow rate measurement instrument must have a minimum 
accuracy of plus-minus1 percent of full-scale flow rate for 
each measurement range used. An exception for Diesel engines is allowed

weight of the fuel consumed must not be greater than 
plus-minus2 percent of the measuring weight.
    (3) If the mass of fuel consumed is measured electronically (load 
cell, load beam, etc.), the error in the actual weight of fuel consumed 
must not be greater than plus-minus1 percent of the full-
scale value of the electronic device.

density, the error in the actual volume consumed must not be greater 
than plus-minus1 percent of the full-scale value of the 
volume measuring device.
    (b) For the devices that have varying mass scales (electronic 
weight, volume, density, etc.), measurements may not be used for 
calculations if the measurement is less than 20 percent of full scale.
    (c) Option. Complete flow-rate measurement systems may be used below 
20 percent of full-scale measurement as long as the combination of mass 
and time measurements indicate a flow rate that has an error of less 
than 5 percent of the absolute flow rate.

trap, the response time increase due to the water trap and associated 
plumbing need not be included in the analyzer response time.
    (b) Precision. The precision of the analyzer must be no greater than 
plus-minus1 percent of full-scale concentration for each 
range used above 155 ppm (or ppm C), or plus-minus2 percent 
for each range used below 155 ppm (or ppm C). The precision is defined 
as 2.5 times the standard deviation(s) of 10 repetitive responses to a 
given calibration or span gas.
    (c) Noise. The analyzer peak-to-peak response to zero and 
calibration or span gases over any 10-second period shall not exceed 2 
percent of full/scale chart deflection on all ranges used.
    (d) Zero drift. The analyzer zero-response drift during a 1-hour

including noise to a zero-gas during a 30-second time interval.
    (e) Span drift. The analyzer span drift during a 1-hour period shall 
be less

[[Page 551]]

than 2 percent of full-scale chart deflection on the lowest range used.

as a means of improving oxygen interference (%O2 I). However, 
this procedure may be used if the engine manufacturer demonstrates on 
each basic combustion system (i.e., 4 cycle DI, 2 cycle DI, 4 cycle 
precup, etc.) that an HFID using this procedure produces comparable 
results to an HFID not using this procedure. These data must be

Sec. 86.322-79  NDIR CO2 rejection ratio check.

    (a) Zero and span the analyzer on the lowest range that will be 
used.
    (b) Introduce a CO2 calibration gas of at least 10 
percent CO2 or greater to the analyzer.
    (c) Record the CO2 calibration gas concentration in ppm.
    (d) Record the analyzers' response (AR) in ppm to the CO2 
calibration gas.

[[Page 553]]

    (e) Calculate the CO2 rejection ratio (CO2RR) 
from:


CO2RR = (ppm CO2)/AR



Sec. 86.327-79  Quench checks; NOX analyzer.

    (a) Perform the reaction chamber quench check for each model of high 
vacuum reaction chamber analyzer prior to initial use.
    (b) Perform the reaction chamber quench check for each new analyzer 
that has an ambient pressure or ``soft vacuum'' reaction chamber prior 
to initial use. Additionally, perform this check prior to reusing an 
analyzer of this type any time any repairs could potentially alter any 
flow rate into the reaction chamber. This includes, but is not limited 
to, sample capillary, ozone capillary, and if used, dilution capillary.
    (c) Quench check as follows:
    (1) Calibrate the NOX analyzer on the lowest range that 
will be used for testing.
    (2) Introduce a mixture of CO2 calibration gas and 
NOX calibration gas to the CL analyzer. Dynamic blending may 
be used to provide this mixture. Dynamic blending may be accomplished by 
analyzing the CO2 in the mixture. The change in the CO2 
value due to blending may then be used to determine the true 
concentration of the NOX in the mixture. The CO2 
concentration of the mixture shall be approximately equal to the highest 
concentration experienced during testing. Record the response.
    (3) Recheck the calibration. If it has changed more than 
plus-minus1 percent of full scale, recalibrate and repeat the 
quench check.
    (4) Prior to testing, the difference between the calculated 
NOX response and the response of NOX in the 
presence of CO2 (step 2) must not be greater than 3.0 percent 
of full-scale. The calculated NOX response is based on the 
calibration performed in step (1).

Sec. 86.328-79  Leak checks.

    (a) Vacuum side leak check. (1) Any location within the analysis 
system where a vacuum leak could affect the test results must be 
checked.
    (2) The maximum allowable leakage rate on the vacuum side is 0.5 
percent of the in-use flow rate for the portion of the system being 
checked. the analyzer flows and bypass flows may be used to estimate the 
in-use flow rates.
    (3) The sample probe and the connection between the sample probe and 
valve V2 (Figure D79-1) may be excluded from the leak check.
    (b) Pressure side leak check. (1) The maximum allowable leakage rate 
on the pressure side in 5 percent of the in-use flow rate.
    (2) Option: If the flow rate for each flow meter is equal to or 
greater than the flow rate recorded in Sec. 86.329(b)(1)(ii), then a 
pressure side leak check is not required.



Sec. 86.329-79  System response time; check procedure.

    (a) Check the system response time by the following procedure:
    (1) Stabilize the operating temperature of the sample line, sample 
pump, and heated filters.
    (2) Introduce an HC span gas into the sampling system at the sample 
probe or valve V2 at atmospheric pressure. Simultaneously, start the 
time measurement.
    (3) When the HC instrument response is 95 percent of the span gas 
concentration used, stop the time measurement.
    (4) If the elapsed time is more than 20.0 seconds, make necessary 
adjustments.
    (5) Repeat with the CO, CO2, and NOX 
instruments and span gases.
    (b) Option. If the following parameters are determined, the initial 
system response time may be generally applied to future checks.
    (1) Analyzer and bypass flow rates. (i) Determine by experimentation 
the minimum analyzer and bypass flow rates individually and in 
combination that will produce a response time as close as possible to 
20.0 seconds per paragraph (a) of this section.
    (ii) Record the highest minimum flow rate for each flow meter as 
determined in step (i).

[[Page 554]]

    (2) Capillary flow analyzers. This procedure is applicable only to 
analyzers that have sample capillaries such as the HFID and CL 
analyzers. It is also assumed that the system has sample/span valves 
that perform the function of valves V9 and V13 in Figure D79-1.
    (i) Operate the analyzer(s) at the in-use capillary pressure.
    (ii) Adjust the bypass flow rate to the flow rate recorded in 
paragraph (b)(1)(ii) of this section.
    (iii) Measure and record the response time from the sample/span 
valve(s) per paragraph (a) of this section.
    (iv) The response time (step (iii)) can be determined by switching 
from the ``sample'' position to the ``span'' position of the sample/span 
valve and observing the analyzer response on a chart recorder. Normally, 
the ``sample'' position would select a ``room air'' sample and the 
``span'' position would select a span gas.
    (v) Adjust the bypass flow rate to the normal in-use value.
    (vi) Measure and record the response time from the sample/span 
valve(s) per paragraph (a) of this section.
    (vii) Determine the slowest response time (step (iii) or step (iv)) 
and add 2 seconds to it.



Sec. 86.330-79  NDIR analyzer calibration.

    (a) Detector optimization. If necessary, follow the manufacturer's 
instructions for initial start-up and basic operating adjustments.
    (b) Calibration curve. Develop a calibration curve for each range 
used as follows:
    (1) Zero the analyzer.
    (2) Span the analyzer to give a response of approximately 90 percent 
of full-scale chart deflection.
    (3) Recheck the zero response. If it has changed more than 0.5 
percent of full scale, repeat steps (1) and (2).
    (4) Record the response of calibration gases having nominal 
concentrations of 15, 30, 45, 60, 75, and 90 percent of full-scale 
concentration.
    (5) Generate a calibration curve. The calibration curve shall be of 
fourth order or less, have five or fewer coefficients, and be of the 
form of equation (1) or (2). Include zero as a data point. Compensation 
for known impurities in the zero gas can be made to the zero-data point. 
The calibration curve must fit the data points within 2 percent of point 
or 1 percent of full scale, whichever is less.

where:

y = concentration
x = chart deflection

    (6) Option. A new calibration curve need not be generated if: (i) A 
calibration curve conforming to step (5) exists; (ii) The responses 
generated in step (4) are within 1 percent of full scale or 2 percent of 
point, whichever is less, of the responses predicted by the calibration 
curve for the gases used in step (4).
    (7) If multiple range analyzers are used, only the lowest range must 
meet the curve fit requirements below 15 percent of full scale.
    (c) If any range is within 2 percent of being linear a linear 
calibration may be used. To determine if this criterion is met:
    (1) Perform a linear least-square regression on the data generated. 
Use an equation of the form y = mx, where x is the actual chart 
deflection and y is the concentration.
    (2) Use the equation z = y/m to find the linear chart deflection (z) 
for each calibration gas concentration (y).
    (3) Determine the linearity (%L ) for each calibration gas by:
    [GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR06OC93.080
    

[[Page 555]]


    (4) The linearity criterion is met if the %L is less than 
plus-minus2 percent for each data point generated. For each 
emission test, a calibration curve of the form Y = mx is to be used. The 
slope (m) is defined for each range by the spanning process.

Sec. 86.331-79  Hydrocarbon analyzer calibration.

    The following steps are followed in sequence to calibrate the 
hydrocarbon analyzer. It is suggested, but not required, that efforts be 
made to minimize relative response variations.
    (a) If necessary, follow manufacturer's instructions for instrument 
start-up and basic operating adjustments.
    (b) Set the oven temperature 5  deg.C hotter than the required 
sample-line temperature. Allow at least one-half hour after the oven has 
reached temperature for the system to equilibrate.
    (c) Initial fuel flow adjustment. With the fuel and air-flow rates 
set at the manufacturer's recommendations, introduce a 350 
ppmCplus-minus75 ppmC span gas to the detector. Determine the 
response at a given fuel flow from the difference between the span-gas 
response and the zero-gas response. Incrementally adjust the fuel flow 
above and below the manufacturer's specification. Record the span and 
zero response at these fuel flows. A plot of the difference between the 
span and zero response versus fuel flow will be similar to the one shown 
in Fig. D79-3.
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR06OC93.170


Adjust the fuel-flow rate to the rich side of the curve, as shown. This 
is initial flow-rate setting and may not be the final optimized flow 
rate.
    (d) Oxygen interference optimization. Choose a range where the 
oxygen interference check gases (see Sec. 86.308) will fall in the upper 
50 percent. Conduct this test with the oven temperature set as required. 
Oxygen interference check gas specifications are found in Sec. 86.308.
    (1) Zero the analyzer.
    (2) Span the analyzer with the zero-percent oxygen blend for 
gasoline-fueled engines. Diesel engine instruments shall be spanned with 
the 21-percent oxygen blend.
    (3) Recheck zero response. If it has changed more than 0.5 percent 
of full scale repeat paragraphs (d) (1) and (2) of this section.
    (4) Introduce the 5 percent and 10 percent oxygen interference check 
gases.
    (5) Recheck the zero response. If it has changed more 
plus-minus1 percent of full scale, repeat the test.
    (6) Calculate the percent of oxygen interference (%O2I) 
for each mixture in step (4).

[[Page 556]]

[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR06OC93.081


    A = hydrocarbon concentration (ppmC) of the span gas used in step 
(2).
    B = hydrocarbon concentration (ppmC) of the oxygen interference 
check gases used in step (4).

    (7) The percent of oxygen interference (%O2I) must be 
less than plus-minus3.0 percent for all required oxygen 
interference check gases prior to testing.
    (8) If the oxygen interference is greater than the specifications, 
incrementally adjust the air flow above and below the manufacturer's 
specifications, repeating paragraphs (d) (1) through (7) of this section 
for each flow.
    (9) If the oxygen interference is greater than the specification 
after adjusting the air flow, vary the fuel flow and thereafter the 
sample flow, repeating paragraphs (d) (1) through (7) of this section 
for each new setting.
    (10) If the oxygen interference is still greater than the 
specifications, repair or replace the analyzer, FID fuel, or burner air 
prior to testing. Repeat this section with the repaired or replaced 
equipment or gases.
    (e) Linearity check. For each range used, check linearity as 
follows:
    (1) With the fuel flow, air flow and sample flow adjust to meet the 
oxygen interference specification, zero the analyzer.
    (2) Span the analyzer using a calibration gas that will provide a 
response of approximately 90 percent of full-scale concentration.
    (3) Recheck the zero response. If it has changed more than 0.5 
percent of full scale, repeat steps (1) and (2).
    (4) Record the response of calibration gases having nominal 
concentrations of 30, 60, and 90 percent of full-scale concentration. It 
is permitted to use additional concentrations.
    (5) Perform a linear least square regression on the data generated. 
Use an equation of the form y = mx, where x is the actual chart 
deflection and y is the concentration.
    (6) Use the equation z = y/m to find the linear chart deflection (z) 
for each calibration gas concentration (y).
    (7) Determine the linearity (%L) for each calibration gas by:
    [GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR06OC93.082
    
    (8) The linearity criterion is met if the %L is less than 
plus-minus2 percent for each data point generated. Below 40 
ppmC the linearity criterion may be expanded to plus-minus4 
percent. For each emission test, a calibration curve of the form y = mx 
is to be used. The slope (m) is defined for each range by the spanning 
process.
    (9) If the %L for any point exceeds the specifications in step (8), 
the air, fuel, and sample-flow rates may be varied within the boundaries 
of the oxygen interference specifications.
    (10) If the %L for any data point still exceeds the specifications, 
repair or replace the analyzer, FID fuel, burner air, or calibration 
bottles prior to testing. Repeat the procedures of this section with the 
repaired or replaced equipment or gases.
    (f) Optimized flow rates. The fuel-flow rate, air-flow rate and 
sample-flow rate

[[Page 557]]

are defined as ``optimized'' at this point.



Sec. 86.332-79  Oxides of nitrogen analyzer calibration.

    (a) At least monthly during testing, perform a converter efficiency 
check as described in paragraph (b) of this section. Perform a monthly 
linearity check as described in paragraph (c) of this section.
    (b) Converter-efficiency check. The apparatus described and 
illustrated in Figure D79-4 is to be used to determine the conversion 
efficiency of devices that convert NO2 to NO. The following 
procedure is to be used in determining the values to be used in the 
equation below:
    (1) Follow the manufacturer's instructions for instrument startup 
and operation.
    (2) Zero the oxides of nitrogen analyzer.
    (3) Connect the outlet of the NOX generator (see Figure 
D79-4) to the sample inlet of the oxides of nitrogen analyzer which has 
been set to the most common operating range.
    (4) Introduce into the NOX generator-analyzer system a 
span gas with a NO concentration equal to approximately 80 percent of 
the most common operating range.
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR06OC93.171


[[Page 558]]


    (5) With the oxides of nitrogen analyzer in the NO Mode, record the 
concentration of NO indicated by the analyzer.
    (6) Turn on the NOX generator O2 (or air) 
supply and adjust the O2 (or air) flow rate so that the NO 
indicated by the analyzer is about 10 percent less than indicated in 
step (5). Record the concentration of NO in this NO+O2 
mixture.
    (7) Switch the NOX generator to the generation mode and 
adjust the generation rate so that the NO measured on the analyzer is 20 
percent of that measured in step (5). There must be at least 10 percent 
unreacted NO at this point. Record the concentration of residual NO.
    (8) Switch the oxides of nitrogen analyzer to the NOX 
mode and measure total NOX. Record this value.
    (9) Switch off the NOX generation, but maintain gas flow 
through the system. The oxides of nitrogen analyzer will indicate the 
total NOX in the NO+O2 mixture. Record this value.
    (10) Turn off the NOX generator O2 (or air) 
supply. The analyzer will now indicate the total NOX in the 
original NO in N2 mixture. This value should be no more than 
5 percent above the value indicated in step (4).
    (11) Calculate the efficiency of the NOX converter by 
substituting the concentrations obtained into the following equation:

Percent Efficiency=[1+(a-b)/(c-d)] x 100
where:
a=concentration obtained in step (8).
b=concentration obtained in step (9).
c=concentration obtained in step (6).
d=concentration obtained in step (7).


The efficiency of the converter shall be greater than 90 percent. 
Adjustment of the converter temperature may be necessary to maximize the 
efficiency. If the converter does not meet the conversion-efficiency 
specifications, repair or replace the unit prior to testing. Repeat the 
procedures of this section with the repaired or new converter.
    (c) Linearity check. For each range used, check linearity as 
follows:
    (1) With the operating parameters adjusted to meet the converter 
efficiency check and the quench checks, zero the analyzer.
    (2) Span the analyzer using a calibration gas that will give a 
response of approximately 90 percent of full-scale concentration.
    (3) Recheck the zero response. If it has changed more than 0.5 
percent of full scale, repeat steps (1) and (2).
    (4) Record the response of calibration gases having nominal 
concentrations of 30, 60 and 90 percent of full-scale concentration. It 
is permitted to use additional concentrations.
    (5) Perform a linear least-square regression on the data generated. 
Use an equation of the form y=mx where x is the actual chart deflection 
and y is the concentration.
    (6) Use the equation z=y/m to find the linear chart deflection (z) 
for each calibration gas concentration (y).
    (7) Determine the linearity (%L) for each calibration gas by:
    [GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR06OC93.083
    
    (8) The linearity criterion is met if the %L is less than 
plus-minus2 percent of each data point generated. For each 
emission test, a calibration curve of the form y=mx is to be used. The 
slope (m) is defined for each range by the spanning process.
    (9) If the %L exceeds plus-minus2 percent for any data 
point generated, repair or replace the analyzer or calibration bottles 
prior to testing. Repeat the procedures of this section with the 
repaired or replaced equipment or gases.
    (10) Perform a converter-efficiency check (see paragraph (b) of this 
section).
    (11) The operating parameters are defined as ``optimized'' at this 
point.

start-up and basic operating adjustments.
    (b) Check the dynamometer torque measurement for each range used by 
the following:
    (1) Warm up the dynamometer following the equipment manufacturer's 
specifications.
    (2) Determine the dynamometer calibration moment arm. Equipment 
manufacturer's data, actual measurement, or the value recorded from the 
previous calibration used for this subpart may be used.
    (3) Calculate the indicated torque (IT) for each calibration weight 
to be used by:

IT = calibration weight (lb) x calibration moment arm (ft)

in step (4) to the calculated torque determined in step (3).
    (6) The measured torque must be within 2 percent of the calculated 
torque.
    (7) If the measured torque is not within 2 percent of the calculated 
torque, adjust or repair the system. Repeat steps (1) through (6) with 
the adjusted or repaired system.
    (c) Option. A master load-cell or transfer standard may be used to 
verify the in-use torque measurement system.
    (1) The master load-cell and read out system must be calibrated with 
weights at each test weight specified in Sec. 86.312-79. The calibration

Sec. 86.334-79  Test procedure overview.

    (a) The test consists of prescribed sequences of engine operating 
conditions to be conducted on an engine dynamometer. The exhaust gases 
generated during engine operation are sampled for specific component 
analysis through the analytical train. The test is applicable to engines 
equipped with catalytic or direct-flame afterburners, induction system 
modifications, or other systems, or to uncontrolled engines.
    (b) The tests are designed to determine the brake-specific emissions 
of hydrocarbons, carbon monoxide, and oxides of nitrogen. The gasoline-
fueled engine test consists of 1 warm-up cycle and 1 hot cycle. The 
Diesel engine test consists of 3 idle modes and 5 power modes at each of 
2 speeds which span the typical operating range of Diesel engines. These 
procedures require the determination of the concentration of each 
pollutant, the fuel flow and the power output during each mode. The 
measured values are weighted and used to calculate the grams of each 
pollutant emitted per brake-horsepower hour.
    (c)(1) When an engine is tested for exhaust emissions or is operated 
for service accumulation on an engine dynamometer, the complete engine 
shall be tested, with all emission control devices installed and 
functioning.
    (2) Evaporative emission controls need not be connected if data are 
provided to show that normal operating

[[Page 560]]

conditions are maintained in the engine induction system.
    (3) On air cooled engines, the fan shall be installed.
    (4) Additional accessories (e.g., oil cooler, alternators, air 
compressors, etc.) may be installed with advance approval by the 
Administrator.
    (d) All emission control systems installed on or incorporated in a 
new motor vehicle engine shall be functioning during all procedures in 
this subpart. In cases of component malfunction or failure, maintenance 
to correct component failure or malfunction shall be authorized in 
accordance with Sec. 86.079-25.



Sec. 86.335-79  Gasoline-fueled engine test cycle.

    (a) The following test sequence shall be followed in dynamometer 
operation tests of gasoline-fueled heavy-duty engines. Diesel engines 
are covered in Sec. 86.336.

    (b) Except for idles, the engine dynamometer shall be operated at a 
constant speed of 2000 rpmplus-minus100 rpm. Speed 
deviations, not to exceed 200 rpm, will be allowed during the first 10 
seconds of each mode.
    (c) The times in-mode specified in paragraph (a) for the CT modes 
are plus-minus2 seconds. All other times in-mode are 
plus-minus4 seconds.
    (d) The first 35 seconds of each 60 second engine power mode is 
allowed for engine-dynamometer stabilization. After this stabilization 
period the torque must be held at the specified value 
plus-minus5 percent until the exhaust gas analysis period. 
During the exhaust gas analysis period, the last 10 seconds of each 
nonclosed throttle mode the engine torque must be at the specified value 
plus-minus2 percent of the maximum torque observed. For 
example, mode 3 torque shall be held between 53 and 57 percent of 
maximum torque (55plus-minus2 percent) during the exhaust 
analysis period. Prior to the analysis period but excluding the first 35 
seconds of the mode, the torque shall be held between 50 and 60 percent 
of maximum torque (55%plus-minus5%).
    (e) The idle operating mode shall be carried out at the 
manufacturer's recommended curb-idle engine speed. Arrive at the last 
idle mode by closing the throttle, braking the dynamometer to the engine 
idle speed, and unloading the dynamometer.
    (f) The CT operating mode shall be carried out at the same engine 
speed as specified in paragraph (b) of this section.
    (g) If the Administrator determines that an engine shall be tested 
as an automatic transmission code engine, then a load shall be applied 
by the dynamometer during the idle modes (1 and 18) such that the engine 
speed is decreased from the recommended dynamometer-idle speed to the 
recommended curb-idle speed. The engine

[[Page 561]]

idle torque recorded for the calculations in Sec. 86.345 shall be zero.
    (h) If the operating conditions specified in paragraph (a) of this 
section for modes 2 through 8, and 10 through 16 cannot be maintained, 
the Administrator may authorize deviations from the specified load 
conditions. Such deviations shall not exceed 5 percent of the maximum 
torque at the test speed. The minimum deviations, above and below the 
specified load, necessary for stable operation shall be determined by 
the manufacturer and approved by the Administrator prior to the test 
run. Emission tests shall be performed by operating the engine at the 
higher approved load setting during cycle 1 and at the lower approved 
load setting during cycle 2. The weighting factors shall be as specified 
in paragraph (a) of this section.

    (b) During each mode the specified speed shall be held to within 50 
rpm. Torque for each mode must be held at the specified value 
plus-minus2 percent of the maximum torque observed. For 
example, mode 4 torque shall be held between 48 and 52 percent of 
maximum torque (50 plus-minus2%).
    (c) If the operating conditions specified in paragraph (b) of this 
section for modes 3, 4, 5, 9, 10, and 11 cannot be maintained, the 
Administrator may authorize deviations from the specified load 
conditions. Such deviations shall not exceed 10 percent of the maximum 
torque at the test speed. The minimum deviations, above and below the 
specified load, necessary for stable operation shall be determined by 
the manufacturer and approved by the Administrator prior to the test 
run. Emission tests shall be performed at each of the approved load 
settings, one above and one below the operating conditions specified in 
paragraph (a) of this section. The emission values obtained shall be 
calculated in accordance with Sec. 86.345 except that the weighting 
factor shall be 0.04.
    (d) If the Administrator determines that an engine shall be tested 
as an automatic transmission code engine, then a load shall be applied 
by the dynamometer during the idle modes (1, 7, and 13) such that the 
engine speed is decreased from the recommended dynamometer-idle speed to 
the recommended curb-idle speed. The engine-idle torque recorded for the 
calculations in Sec. 86.345 shall be zero.

Sec. 86.338-79  Exhaust measurement accuracy.

    (a) The analyzers must be operated between 15 percent and 100 
percent of full-scale chart deflection during the measurement of the 
emissions for each mode. The exceptions to the lower limit of this 
operating rule are:
    (1) The analyzer's response may be less than 15 percent of full-
scale if the full-scale value is 155 ppm (or ppm C) or less.
    (2) Option. For CO analysis the analyzer's response may be less than 
15 percent of full scale if the full-scale value is 5500 ppm or less.
    (3) The analyzer's response may be less than 15 percent of full 
scale if the emissions from the engine are erratic and the average 
chart-deflection value is greater than 15 percent of full scale.
    (4) For gasoline-fueled engines, the analyzer's response may be less 
than 15 percent of full scale during the initial part of the CT mode 
provided that average chart-deflection value is greater than 15 percent 
of full scale.
    (5) The analyzer's response may be less than 15 percent of full 
scale if the contribution of all modes read below the 15 percent level 
is less than 10 percent by mass of the final test results.
    (6) The HC analyzer's response may be less than 15 percent of full-
scale when transient emissions (spikes) can be reasonably expected to 
exceed 90 percent of full-scale. Higher analyzer ranges may be used 
provided that the precision and linearity of the analyzer at the level 
of the readings below 15 percent meets the specifications of the range 
that would be required if the transient emissions did not exist.

Sec. 86.339-79  Pre-test procedures.

    (a) Allow a minimum of 30 minutes warm-up in the stand-by or 
operating mode prior to spanning the analyzers.
    (b) Replace or clean the filter elements and then vacuum leak check 
the system, Sec. 86.328(a). A pressure leak check is also permitted per 
Sec. 86.328(b). Allow the heated sample line, filters, and pumps to 
reach operating temperature.
    (c) Perform the following system checks:
    (1) If a stainless steel NO2 to NO converter is used, 
prior to gasoline-fueled engine tests, purge the converter with air 
(zero-grade air, room air, or O2) for a minimum of 30 
minutes. The converter must be at operational temperature while purging.
    (2) Check the sample-line temperature (see Sec. 86.310).
    (3) Check the system response time (see Sec. 86.329). System 
response time may be applied from the most recent check of response time 
if all of the following are met:
    (i) The flow rate for each flow meter is equal to or greater than 
the flow rate recorded in Sec. 86.329(b)(1)(ii).
    (ii) For analyzers with capillaries, the response time from the 
sample/span valve is measured using in-use pressures and bypass flows 
(see Sec. 86.329(b)(2)).
    (iii) The response time measured in step (ii) is equal to or less 
than the response time determined in Sec. 86.329(b)(2)(vii).
    (4) A hang-up check is permitted.
    (5) A converter-efficiency check is permitted. The check need not 
conform to Sec. 86.332(b). The test procedure may be aborted at this 
point in the procedure in order to repair the NO2 to NO 
converter. If the test is aborted, the converter must pass the 
efficiency check described in Sec. 86.332(b) prior to starting the 
dynamometer test run.
    (d) Introduce the zero-grade gases at the same flow rates and 
pressures used

[[Page 564]]

to calibrate the analyzers and zero the analyzers on the lowest 
anticipated range that will be used during the test. Immediately prior 
to each test (segment, for Diesel engines), obtain a stable zero for 
each anticipated range that will be used during the test.
    (e) Introduce span gases to the instruments under the same flow 
conditions as were used for the zero gases. Adjust the instrument gains 
on the lowest range that will be used to give the desired value. Span 
gases should have a concentration greater than 70 percent of full scale 
for each range used. Immediately prior to each test and also prior to 
each segment of the Diesel test, record the response to the span gas and 
the span-gas concentration for each range that will be used during the 
test.
    (f) Check the zero responses. If they have changed more than 0.5 
percent of full scale, repeat paragraphs (d) and (e) of this section.
    (g) Check system flow rates and pressures. Note the values of gauges 
G3 and G4 for reference during the test.



Sec. 86.340-79  Gasoline-fueled engine dynamometer test run.

    (a) This section applies to gasoline-fueled engines only. Diesel 
engines are covered in Sec. 86.341.

    (1) The engine shall be started and operated at:
    (i) Zero load in accordance with the manufacturer's start-up and 
warm-up procedures for 1 minute plus-minus30 sec;
    (ii) A torque equivalent to 10plus-minus3 percent of the 
most recent determination of maximum torque for 4 minutes 
plus-minus30 second at 2,000 rpm. This torque level may be 
exceeded if the choke and fast idle cam mechanism would normally result 
in a stabilized idle speed in excess of 2,000 rpm.
    (iii) A torque equivalent to 55plus-minus5 percent of the 
most recent determination of maximum torque for 35 minutes 
plus-minus1 minute at 2000 rpm;
    (iv) Option. If the engine has been operating on service 
accumulation for a minimum of 40 minutes, the service accumulation may 
be substituted for steps (i) through (iii).
    (2) If tested under the provisions of Sec. 86.079-29, check 
specifications as required. This check must be performed within 20 
minutes after completion of engine preconditioning;
    (3) Determine the maximum torque of the engine at 2000 rpm 
plus-minus100 rpm;
    (i) Operate the engine with the throttle fully opened for a maximum 
of three minutes. During the second minute of operation, record the high 
and low torque readings. The average of these two readings will be the 
maximum torque value at 2000 rpm.
    (ii) Calculate the torque corresponding to 10, 25, 55, and 90 
percent of the observed maximum torque value.
    (4) Determine the analyzer ranges required for each mode specified 
in Sec. 86.335 to meet the range specifications of Sec. 86.338. Prior to 
determining the range selection, the automatic dynamometer controller, 
if used, may be calibrated for the prevailing ambient conditions. The 
engine must not be operated for more than 30 minutes. Cycle 1, or cycles 
1 and 2, specified in Sec. 86.335, may be used for this purpose.
    (5) The engine shall be turned off and allowed to stand for at least 
1 hour, but not more than 2 hours, at an average ambient temperature of 
25  deg.Cplus-minus5  deg.C (77  deg.Fplus-minus9 
deg.F).
    (d) The following steps shall be taken for each test:
    (1) Maintain dynamometer test cell average ambient temperature at 25 
 deg.Cplus-minus5  deg.C (77  deg.Fplus-minus9 
deg.F);
    (2) Observe pre-test procedures; Sec. 86.339;
    (3) Start cooling system;
    (4) Start engine and operate in accordance with manufacturer's 
start-up and warm-up procedures. The duration of the warm-up procedures 
shall be 5 minutes plus-minus30 seconds. Sample flow may 
begin during the warm-up;
    (5) Read and record all pre-test data specified in Sec. 86.337(c) 
during the 5 minute warm-up;
    (6) Release the choke idle-stop (if necessary) and return the engine 
throttle control to the curb-idle position, start sample flow and 
recorders if not

[[Page 565]]

already started, and begin test sequence of Sec. 86.335;
    (7) Should it be determined that the test must be rerun, then only 
the soak specified in paragraph (c)(5) of this section need be performed 
prior to paragraph (d) of this section;
    (8) Perform the test cycle, Sec. 86.335, and continuously record 
exhaust gas concentrations;
    (9) Read and record all modal data specified in Sec. 86.337(d) 
during the test cycle;
    (10) The engine speed and load must be maintained within the 
requirements of Sec. 86.343;
    (11) If at any time during a test, the test equipment malfunctions 
or the specifications in paragraph (d)(10) of this section are not met, 
the test is void, and may be aborted. The test sequence may be restarted 
under the provisions of paragraph (c)(5) of this section.
    (e) Exhaust gas measurements. (1) Measure HC, CO, CO2, 
and NOX volume concentration in the exhaust sample. Should 
the analyzer response exceed 100 percent of full scale or respond less 
than 15 percent of the full scale, the next higher or lower analyzer 
range shall be used per Sec. 86.338. For exceptions to the lower limit 
see Sec. 86.338. Should the fuel flow instrument read below 20 percent 
of the full-scale value, a flow measurement unit with a lower scale must 
be used unless the option in Sec. 86.314 is desired.
    (2) For each analyzer, each range that may be used during a test 
must have the zero and span responses recorded prior to the execution of 
that test. Only the range(s) used to measure the emissions during a test 
are required to have their zero and span recorded after the completion 
of the test.
    (3) If during an emission test the value of gauges downstream of the 
NDIR analyzer(s) (G3 or G4) differs by more than plus-minus2 
inches of water from the pretest value, the test is void.

Sec. 86.341-79  Diesel engine dynamometer test run.

    (a) This section applies to Diesel engines only. Gasoline-fueled 
engines are covered in Sec. 86.340.
    (b) The temperature of the air supplied to the engine shall be 
between 68  deg.F and 86  deg.F. The fuel temperature at the pump inlet 
shall be 100  deg.Fplus-minus10  deg.F. The observed 
barometric pressure shall be between 28.5 inches and 31 inches Hg. 
Higher air temperature or lower barometric pressure may be used, if 
desired, but no allowance shall be made for increased emissions because 
of such conditions unless correction factors are developed and approved 
in advance by the Administrator.
    (c) The governor and fuel system shall have been adjusted to provide 
engine performance at the levels in the application for certification 
required under Sec. 86.079-21. These adjustments are only permitted 
under the provisions of Sec. 86.079-25.
    (d) The following steps shall be taken for each test:
    (1) Install instrumentation and sample probes as required;
    (2) Observe pre-test procedure, Sec. 86.339;
    (3) Read and record the general test data as specified in 
Sec. 86.337(b);
    (4) Start cooling system;
    (5) Precondition the engine in the following manner:
    (i) Operate the engine at idle for 2 to 3 minutes;
    (ii) Operate the engine at approximately 50 percent power at the 
peak torque speed for 5 to 7 minutes;
    (iii) Operate the engine at rated speed and maximum horsepower for 
25 to 30 minutes;
    (iv) Option. It is permitted to precondition the engine at rated 
speed and maximum horsepower until the oil and water temperatures are 
stabilized. The temperatures are defined as stabilized if they are 
maintained within 2 percent of point for 2 minutes. The engine must be 
operated a minimum of 10 minutes for this option. This optional 
procedure may be substituted for step (iii);
    (v) Option. If the engine has been operating on service accumulation 
for a minimum of 40 minutes, the service accumulation may be substituted 
for steps (i) through (iii);

[[Page 566]]

    (vi) Longer preconditioning times may be used only if prior approval 
is obtained from the Administrator.
    (6) Within a total elapsed time of 10 minutes or less, determine by 
experimentation the maximum torque at the rated and intermediate speeds;
    (7) Calculate the torque corresponding to 2, 25, 50, 75, and 100 
percent of the maximum observed torque for the rated and intermediate 
speeds;
    (8) Read and record all pre-test data specified in Sec. 86.337(c);
    (9) Start the test cycle, Sec. 86.336, within 10 minutes, after 
determining test load using the torque values determined in paragraph 
(d)(6) of this section;
    (10) Read and record all modal data specified in Sec. 86.337(d) 
during the last 2 minutes of each mode;
    (11) Continuously record the analyzer's response to the exhaust gas 
during each test segment;
    (12) Test segments may be repeated;
    (13) If a delay of more than 20 minutes occurs between the end of 
one segment and the beginning of another segment the test is void. The 
test may be restarted at paragraph (d)(8) of this section. If the delay 
exceeds 4 hours, the test shall be restarted at paragraph (d)(2) of this 
section;
    (14) The engine speed and load must be maintained within the 
requirements of Sec. 86.336 during the last 2 minutes of each mode. If 
the requirement is not met for all modes during a test segment, that 
segment of the test is void. The test segment may be restarted beginning 
with paragraph (d)(8) of this section;
    (15) If at any time during a test segment, the test equipment 
malfunctions or the specifications in paragraph (d)(14) of this section 
are not met, the test segment is void, and may be aborted. The test 
segment may be restarted beginning with paragraph (d)(8) of this 
section;
    (16) Fuel flow and air flow during the idle or 2-percent load 
conditions may be determined just prior to or immediately following the 
dynamometer sequence, if longer times are required for accurate 
measurements.
    (e) Exhaust gas measurements. (1) Measure HC, CO, CO2, 
and NOX volume concentration in the exhaust sample. Should 
the analyzer response exceed 100 percent of full scale or respond less 
than 15 percent of full scale, the next higher or lower analyzer range 
shall be used per Sec. 86.338. For exceptions to the lower limit see 
Sec. 86.338. Should the fuel flow instrument read below 20 percent of 
full-scale value, a smaller flow measurement unit must be used unless 
the option in Sec. 86.314 is desired.
    (2) Each analyzer range that may be used during a test segment must 
have the zero and span responses recorded prior to the execution of that 
test segment. Only the range(s) used to measure the emissions during a 
test segment are required to have their zero and span recorded after the 
completion of the test segment.
    (3) It is permitted to change filter elements between test segments.
    (4) A leak check is permitted between test segments.
    (5) A hang-up check is permitted between test segments.
    (6) If, during the emission measurement portion of a test segment, 
the value of the gauges downstream of the NDIR analyzer(s) G3 or G4 
differs by more than plus-minus2 inches of water from the 
pretest value, the test segment is void.

Sec. 86.342-79  Post-test procedures.

    (a) Begin a hang-up check within 30 seconds of the completion of the 
last mode in the test. Use the following procedure:
    (1) Introduce a zero-grade gas or room air into the sample probe or 
valve V2 to check the ``hangup zero'' response. Simultaneously start a 
time measurement.
    (2) Select the lowest HC range used during the test;
    (3) The difference between the span-zero response and the hang-up 
zero response shall not be greater than 5.0 percent of full scale or 10 
ppmC whichever is greater, within:
    (i) 50 seconds for gasoline-fueled engine test, or
    (ii) 4 minutes for Diesel engine tests, or
    (b) Begin the analyzer span checks within 6 minutes after the 
completion of the last mode in the test. Record for

[[Page 567]]

each analyzer the zero and span response for each range used during the 
preceding test or test segment.
    (c) If during the test, the filter element(s) were replaced or 
cleaned, a vacuum check must be performed per Sec. 86.328 immediately 
after the span checks. If the vacuum side leak check does not meet the 
requirements of Sec. 86.328 the test is void.
    (d) Read and record the post-test data specified in Sec. 86.337(e).
    (e) For a valid test, the analyzer drift between the before-test and 
after-test (before-segment and after-segment for Diesels) span checks 
for each analyzer must meet the following requirements:
    (1) The span drift (defined as the change in the difference between 
the zero response and the span response) must not exceed 2.0 percent of 
full-scale chart deflection for each range used;
    (2) The zero response drift must not exceed 2.0 percent of full-
scale chart deflection for each range used above 155 ppm (or ppm C), or 
3 percent of full-scale chart deflection for each range below 155 ppm 
(or ppm C).

Sec. 86.343-79  Chart reading.

    (a) A computer or any other automatic data processing device(s) may 
be used as long as the system meets the requirements of this subpart.
    (b) Determine the location on the chart of the analyzer responses 
corresponding to the end of each mode.
    (c) For gasoline-fueled engines, determine whether the test cycle 
was run in accordance with Sec. 86.335 by observing either chart event 
marks, speed trace, torque trace, or concentration traces. The test will 
be invalidated if there is a deviation of more than:
    (1) 2 seconds from the specified time for each CT mode, and 4 
seconds for all other modes; or,
    (2) Two percent of maximum torque during the exhaust gas sampling 
period (last 10 seconds on each nonclosed throttle gasoline-fueled 
engine mode); or
    (3) 5 percent of maximum torque during the remainder of the mode, 
excluding the first 35 seconds of the mode; or
    (4) 200 rpm during the first 10 seconds of each mode, or 100 rpm 
during the remainder of each mode.
    (d) Determine chart deflections.
    (1) Locate the last 10 seconds of each gasoline-fueled engine mode 
except CT. Locate the last 50 seconds of each gasoline-fueled engine CT 
mode. For all Diesel engine modes locate the last 60 seconds.
    (2)(i) Divide the last 10 seconds or 60 seconds, whichever is 
applicable, into a minimum of 10 equally spaced increments. Determine 
the chart deflection of each increment for the CO2, CO, HC, 
and NOX analyzers.
    (ii) Option for Diesel engine modes. If the deviation from a 
straight line (other than instrument noise) during this 60 seconds is 
less than plus-minus5 percent of full-scale, the average 
chart deflection may be determined by eye. The average value (one 
number) may then be used in lieu of the 10 values required by paragraph 
(d)(2)(i) of this section.
    (3) Other methods of determining the chart deflection of the 
analyzers may be used only with prior approval by the Administrator.
    (e) Determine CO2, CO, HC, and NOX 
concentrations for each mode.
    (1) If the option in paragraph (d)(2)(ii) of this section is 
employed, then those chart deflections for both linear and non-linear 
analyzers may be substituted for the average chart deflection in step 
(e)(2).
    (2) For linear instruments, average the chart deflections determined 
in paragraph (d)(2)(i) of this section. Determine the concentration for 
this average chart deflection using calibration data.
    (3) For non-linear instruments, calculate concentrations for each 
chart deflection determined in paragraph (d)(2)(i) of this section. Take 
the average of these concentrations for each mode.
    (4) For purposes of this paragraph, calibration data includes 
calibration curves, linearity curves, span-gas responses, and zero-gas 
responses.

is defined by the equation in Figure D79-6.
    (2) For Diesel engines, for each mode use the measured engine (f/a) 
entering the combustion chamber when calculating . If 
applicable bleed air, etc. must be subtracted from the measured air flow 
(see Sec. 86.313).
    (3) For gasoline-fueled engines, optional for Diesel engines, 
calculate  for each mode by substituting WHC for DHC in the 
(f/a) equations in paragraph (d) of this section.

    (e) Data validation--(1) Diesel engines only. Compare the calculated 
dry (f/a) with the measured fuel and air flow. For a valid test the 
emission calculated (f/a) must agree within 10 percent of the measured 
(f/a) for each mode. Diesel engine idle and 2 percent modes do not have 
to meet this requirement.
    (2) Fuel/Air ratio comparison. When comparing measured (f/a) ratio 
to an emissions calculated (f/a) ratio, the measured air flow (in terms 
of mass) is the total mass of air entering the exhaust pipe. This may 
include additions of air mass to the exhaust pipe by an air injection 
system.
    (3) Other methods of data validation may be used if prior approval 
is obtained from the Administrator.
    (4) Data validation techniques that have obtained prior approval 
from the Administrator for use on gasoline-fueled engines may be used to 
determine void tests.
    (f) Multiply the dry nitric oxide volume concentrations by the 
following humidity correction factor to obtain DKNO:
    (1) Gasoline-fueled engines:

KNOx = 0.6272 + 0.00629G - 0.0000176G2
    (2) Diesel engines:

Whc, Wco, Mf, and Wnox for each mode by multiplying the modal 
mass values by the appropriate modal weighting factor prescribed by 
Sec. 86.335.
    (2) For Diesel engines, weight the values of BHP, Whc, Wco, 
Wnox, and Mf as follows:
    (i) Weight the values from each idle mode by multiplying the values 
by (0.067);
    (ii) Weight the remaining modes by multiplying the values by 0.08.
    (i) Calculate the brake specific emissions for:
    (1) Each gasoline-fueled engine test cycle, and
    (2) Each Diesel engine test by summing the weighted values (BHP, 
Whc, Wco, and Wnox) from each mode as follows:

    (a) This subpart contains general provisions regulating the emission 
of air pollution from new motorcycles. Test procedures are found in 
subpart F.
    (b) Several discrete concepts are addressed:
    (1) Requirements. Sections 86.407 to 86.415.
    (2) Application for certification. Sections 86.416 and 86.417.
    (3) Test fleet selection. Sections 86.418 to 86.423.

[[Page 575]]

    (4) Service accumulation, testing, maintenance, certification. 
Sections 86.424 to 86.439.
    (5) Administrative provisions. Sections 86.440 to 86.444.
    (c) The certification procedure to be followed depends upon the 
manufacturer's projected sales.
    (1) New motorcycles, produced by a manufacturer whose projected U.S. 
sales of motorcycles is 10,000 or more units (for the model year in 
which certification is sought) shall demonstrate compliance with all 
general standards and all specific emission requirements before they can 
be sold in the United States. The manufacturer is required to submit an 
application with sales data, product information, required maintenance, 
testing and service accumulation procedures. The Administrator will 
select vehicle(s) which will represent the manufacturer's product line. 
The manufacturer is required to construct these vehicles to be 
representative of actual production. Service is accumulated and emission 
tests performed with data submitted to the Administrator. The 
Administrator may run his own tests to confirm the manufacturer's 
results. The Administrator will review the data and either grant or deny 
certification. If the manufacturer wishes to make changes to a certified 
vehicle, or to produce a new vehicle, the Administrator must be 
notified. The Administrator may require testing to demonstrate continued 
compliance with emission standards. Each vehicle must be labeled with 
tune up specifications and the purchaser must be supplied with 
maintenance instructions. Also, information on production vehicles must 
be supplied to the Administrator.
    (2) New motorcycles produced by a manufacturer whose projected U.S. 
sales of motorcycles is less than 10,000 units (for the model year in 
which certification is sought) shall meet both the general standards and 
specific emission requirements described in Secs. 86.401 through 86.417, 
Sec. 86.425, Sec. 86.437, and Secs. 86.440 through 86.444 of this 
subpart before they can be sold in the United States. The manufacturer 
is required to submit an application containing a statement that his 
vehicles conform to the applicable emission standards. The manufacturer 
is required to retain in his records, but not submit with the 
application, valid emission test data which support his statement. The 
Administrator will review the application and either grant or deny 
certification. Each vehicle must be labeled with tune up specifications 
and the purchaser must be supplied with maintenance instructions. Also, 
information on production vehicles must be supplied to the 
Administrator.
    (d) Manufacturers who are considering an application should contact: 
Director, Vehicle Programs and Compliance Division, Environmental 
Protection Agency, 2565 Plymouth Rd., Ann Arbor, Michigan 48105 and 
state whether he/she plans to certify for total sales of greater than or 
less than 10,000 vehicles for the applicable model year.

Sec. 86.419-78  Engine displacement, motorcycle classes.

    (a)(1) Engine displacement shall be calculated using nominal engine 
values and rounded to the nearest whole cubic centimetre, in accordance 
with ASTM E 29-67.
    (2) For rotary engines, displacement means the maximum volume of a 
combustion chamber between two rotor tip

[[Page 581]]

seals minus the minimum volume of that combustion chamber between those 
two rotor tip seals times three times the number of rotors.

cc=(max. chamber volume - min. chamber volume)  x  3  x  no. of rotors

    (b) Motorcycles will be divided into classes based on engine 
displacement.
    (1) Class I--50 to 169 cc (3.1 to 10.4 cu. in.).
    (2) Class II--170 to 279 cc (10.4 to 17.1 cu. in.).
    (3) Class III--280 cc and over (17.1 cu. in. and over).
    (c) At the manufacturer's option, a vehicle described in an 
application for certification may be placed in a higher class (larger 
displacement). All procedures for the higher class must then be complied 
with, compliance with emission standards will be determined on the basis 
of engine displacement.



Sec. 86.420-78  Engine families.

    (a) The vehicles covered in the application will be divided into 
groupings whose engines are expected to have similar emission 
characteristics throughout their useful life. Each group of engines with 
similar emission characteristics shall be defined as a separate engine 
family.
    (b) Reciprocating families. To be classed in the same engine family, 
reciprocating engines must be identical in all of the following 
applicable respects:
    (1) The combustion cycle.
    (2) The cooling mechanism.
    (3) The cylinder configuration (inline, vee, opposed, bore spacings,

    (c) At the manufacturer's option, reciprocating engines identical in 
all the respects listed in paragraph (b) of this section may be further 
divided into different engine families if the Administrator determines 
that they may be expected to have different emission characteristics. 
This determination will be based upon a consideration of features such 
as:
    (1) The bore and stroke.
    (2) The combustion chamber configuration.
    (3) The intake and exhaust timing method of actuation (poppet valve, 
reed valve, rotary valve, etc.).
    (4) The intake and exhaust valve or port sizes, as applicable.
    (5) The fuel system.
    (6) The exhaust system.
    (d) Rotary families. To be classed in the same engine family, rotary 
combustion cycle engines must be identical in all of the following 
applicable respects:
    (1) The major axis of the epitrochoidal curve.
    (2) The minor axis of the epitrochoidal curve.
    (3) The generating radius of the epitrochoidal curve.
    (4) The cooling mechanism.
    (5) The number of rotors.
    (6) The engine displacement class, Sec. 86.419.
    (7) The method of air aspiration.
    (8) The number of catalytic converters, location, volume and 
composition.
    (9) The thermal reactor characteristics.
    (10) The number of carburetors.
    (11) The prechamber characteristics.
    (e) At the manufacturer's option, rotary combustion cycle engines 
identical in all the respects listed in paragraph (d) of this section, 
may be further divided into different engine families if the 
Administrator determines that they may be expected to have different 
emission characteristics. This determination will be based upon a 
consideration of features, such as:
    (1) The width of the rotor housing.
    (2) The type and location of intake port (side, peripheral, 
combination, etc.).
    (3) The number of spark plugs per rotor.
    (4) The fuel system.
    (5) The exhaust system.
    (f) Where engines are of a type which cannot be divided into engine 
families based upon the criteria listed in paragraphs (b) and (d) of 
this section, the Administrator will establish families

[[Page 582]]

of those engines based upon the features most related to their emission 
characteristics.
[42 FR 1126, Jan. 5, 1977, as amended at 44 FR 48205, Aug. 17, 1979]



Sec. 86.421-78  Test fleet.

    (a) A test vehicle will be selected by the Administrator to 
represent each engine-displacement-system combination. The configuration 
(engine calibration, transmission, drive ratio, mass, options, etc.) in 
the manufacturer's application which the Administrator believes has the 
greatest probability of exceeding the standards will be selected.
    (b) At the manufacturer's option, the Administrator will only select 
one vehicle to represent each engine family where the total projected 
annual sales for that family are less than 5,000 vehicles.
    (c) A manufacturer may elect to operate and test additional vehicles 
which are identical to those selected by the Administrator. Written 
notice of a commitment to operate and test additional vehicles shall be 
given to the Administrator prior to the start of testing and not later 
than 30 days following notification of the test fleet selection. The 
results of tests performed by the manufacturer will be combined to 
determine deterioration factors. Each vehicle must meet applicable 
standards when tested by the Administrator and when those results are 
projected to the useful life.
    (d) In lieu of testing a test vehicle and submitting data therefore, 
a manufacturer may, with the prior written approval of the 
Administrator, submit exhaust emission data on a similar vehicle for 
which certification has previously been obtained or for which all 
applicable data has previously been submitted.



Sec. 86.422-78  Administrator's fleet.

    The Administrator may require additional test vehicles identical in 
all material respects to vehicles selected in accordance with 
Sec. 86.421. The number of vehicles selected shall not increase the size 
of the test fleet by more than 20 percent or one vehicle, whichever is 
greater.



Sec. 86.423-78  Test vehicles.

    (a)(1) Before beginning service accumulation on a test vehicle, the 
manufacturer may perform a zero-kilometer exhaust emission test.
    (2) If such a test is performed, the data shall be submitted to the 
Administrator when the application is submitted.
    (3) Zero-kilometer test results shall not be included in the 
determination of deterioration factors.
    (b) Once a manufacturer begins to operate a test vehicle, as 
indicated by compliance with paragraph (a) of this section, the data 
from the vehicle will be used, unless specified otherwise by the 
Administrator. Discontinuation of a vehicle shall be allowed only with 
the written consent of the Administrator.
    (c) Test vehicles shall be calibrated at zero kilometres within the 
production tolerances applicable to the manufacturer's specifications.
    (d) The Administrator may disqualify a vehicle which receives 
assembly line operations and adjustments which will not be performed on 
production vehicles.
[42 FR 1126, Jan. 5, 1977, as amended at 49 FR 48138, Dec. 10, 1984]



Sec. 86.425-78  Test procedures.

    (a) Motorcycle emission test procedures are found in subpart F.
    (b) The Administrator may prescribe emission test procedures for any 
motorcycle which he determines is not susceptible to satisfactory 
testing by the procedures set forth in subpart F.
    (c) Testing of any type with respect to any test vehicle other than 
that specified in this subpart and subpart F is not allowed except as 
specifically authorized by the Administrator.



Sec. 86.426-78  Service accumulation.

    (a) The procedure for service accumulation will be the Durability 
Driving Schedule as specified in appendix IV to this part. A modified 
procedure may also be used if approved in advance by the Administrator. 
Except with the advance approval of the Administrator, all vehicles will 
accumulate distance at a measured curb mass which is within 5 kg (11.0 
lb) of the loaded vehicle mass specified by the Administrator.

[[Page 583]]

    (b) During service accumulation, vehicles shall not be operated for 
more than 12 hours during an operating sequence. Engine shutdowns are 
permitted during the operating sequence, but the periods of shutdown are 
not included in the 12 hour total. Following each operating sequence, 
the vehicle shall soak, without operation, for a minimum of 8 hours. 
During soak periods, the vehicle shall be exposed to normal outside 
ambient temperatures and humidity conditions unless vehicle maintenance 
or servicing is being performed.
    (c) The manufacturer's recommended shifting procedure will be used 
for laps 1 through 10. Lap 11 shifts (W.O.T. accelerations) must be 
conducted at the manufacturer's recommended maximum safe engine speed.
[42 FR 1126, Jan. 5, 1977, as amended at 42 FR 56737, Oct. 28, 1977]



Sec. 86.427-78  Emission tests.

    (a)(1) Each test vehicle shall be driven with all emission control 
systems installed and operating for the following total test distances, 
or for such lesser distances as the Administrator may agree to as 
meeting the objectives of this procedure. (See Sec. 86.419 for class 
explanation.)

 
------------------------------------------------------------------------
                                  Total test   Minimum test    Minimum
       Displacement class          distance      distance     number of
                                 (kilometers)  (kilometers)     tests

III............................        15,000         3,500            4
------------------------------------------------------------------------

    (2) A zero kilometer emission test may be performed prior to the 
beginning of service accumulation.
    (b) All vehicles shall undergo at least four emission tests; one at 
the minimum test distance, one before and one after periodic 
maintenance, and one at the total test distance. If no maintenance is 
scheduled, then at least two tests will be performed, at equal 
intervals, between the minimum and total test distances. Additional 
tests may be performed; such tests must be at equal intervals and 
approved by the Administrator prior to starting service accumulation.
    (c) Where the Administrator agrees to a lesser distance for service 
accumulation, he may modify the maintenance provisions of this subpart.
    (d) All tests required by this subpart must be conducted at an 
accumulated distance within 250 kilometers (155 mi) of the nominal 
distance at each test point.
    (e)(1) If a manufacturer conducts multiple tests at any test point 
at which the data are intended to be used in the calculation of the 
deterioration factor, the number of tests must be the same at each point 
and may not exceed three valid tests unless the manufacturer chooses to 
average the test results.
    (2) If the manufacturer chooses to average the test results at a 
test point, he may conduct more tests than the minimum number of tests 
conducted at any other test point.
    The results of the multiple tests shall be averaged to create a 
single value which is the test point value used in the deterioration 
factor calculation specified in Sec. 86.432-78.
    (3) When using this option to generate data for a particular test 
point, the manufacturer must include in the average all valid test data 
generated at that test point.
    (4) The manufacturer shall follow the same procedure for all exhaust 
pollutants.
    (5) The test results obtained from the emission tests performed 
before and after maintenance affecting emissions shall not be averaged.
    (f) The Administrator may require that any one or more of the test 
vehicles be submitted to him, at such places as he may designate, for 
the purpose of conducting emissions tests. The Administrator may specify 
that he will conduct such testing at the manufacturer's facility, in 
which case instrumentation and equipment specified by the Administrator 
shall be made available by the manufacturer for test operations. Any 
testing conducted at a manufacturer's facility pursuant to this 
paragraph shall be scheduled by the manufacturer as promptly as 
possible.
    (g) Whenever the Administrator conducts a test on a test vehicle, 
the results of that test, unless subsequently invalidated by the 
Administrator, shall comprise the data for the vehicle at

[[Page 584]]

that prescribed test point and the manufacturer's data for that 
prescribed test point shall not be used in determining compliance with 
emission standards.

Sec. 86.428-80  Maintenance, scheduled; test vehicles.

    (a) Periodic maintenance on the engine, emission control system, and 
fuel system of test vehicles shall be scheduled for performance at the 
same distance intervals that will be specified in the manufacturer's 
maintenance instructions furnished to the ultimate purchaser. Such 
maintenance shall be performed only under the following provisions.
    (b) Periodic major engine tune-ups to the manufacturer's 
specifications may be performed no more frequently than as follows nor 
may any tune-up be performed within 1000 km prior to the official test.

 
------------------------------------------------------------------------
                                                               Minimum
                     Displacement class                        interval
                                                             (kilometer)
------------------------------------------------------------------------
I..........................................................        3,000
II.........................................................        3,000
III........................................................        4,000
------------------------------------------------------------------------

    (c) A scheduled major engine tune-up shall be restricted to items 
listed below and shall be conducted in a manner consistent with service 
instructions and specifications provided by the manufacturer for use by 
customer service personnel. The following items may be inspected, 
replaced, cleaned, adjusted, and/or serviced as required: (1) Breaker 
points, timing, (2) idle speed and idle air/fuel mixture, (3) valve 
lash, (4) engine bolt torque, and (5) spark plugs.
    (d) The Administrator will specify the ignition timing, idle air 
fuel mixture and other fuel system adjustments to be used at each tune-
up. The settings selected will be those the Administrator deems 
appropriate within the physically available range.
    (e) Periodic change of engine and transmission oil, and change or 
service of oil, air, and fuel filters will be allowed at the same 
distance intervals that will be specified in the manufacturer's 
maintenance instructions.
    (f) Requests for authorization of periodic maintenance of emission 
control related components not specifically authorized to be maintained 
by this section, and for anticipated maintenance (see Sec. 86.428), must 
be made prior to the beginning of distance accumulation. The 
Administrator will approve the performance of such maintenance if the 
manufacturer makes a satisfactory showing that the maintenance will be 
performed on vehicles in use and that the maintenance is reasonable and 
necessary.
    (1) The EGR system may be serviced a maximum of two times during the 
durability service accumulation if failure of the EGR system activates 
an audible and/or visual signal approved by the Administrator which 
alerts the vehicle operator to the need for EGR system maintenance, or 
if the need for periodic maintenance of the EGR system is overtly 
signalled to the vehicle operator by an appropriate means, e.g., an 
indicator light or significantly reduced driveability performance.
    (2) The catalytic converter may be serviced only once during the 
durability service accumulation if failure of the catalytic converter 
activates an audible and/or visual signal approved by the Administrator 
which alerts the vehicle operator to the need for catalytic converter 
maintenance, or if the need for periodic maintenance of the catalytic 
converter is overtly signalled to the vehicle operator by an appropriate 
means, e.g., an indicator light or significantly reduced driveability 
performance.
    (g) Certain engine components may require maintenance which, by its 
nature, cannot be scheduled for periodic intervals, but which the 
manufacturer believes will be necessary. For example, piston and 
cylinder replacement caused by piston seizure which results in the 
vehicle being inoperative; or in the case of two-stroke engines, 
decarbonization, the need for which is signalled to the vehicle operator 
by significantly reduce driveability performance. Such maintenance is 
designated anticipated maintenance. Anticipated maintenance must be 
identified by the manufacturer and approved

[[Page 585]]

as being appropriate by the Administrator prior to the start of service 
accumulation. The approximate distance at which the need for anticipated 
maintenance may arise must be specified in the application for 
certification.
    (h) Complete emission tests (see subpart F) are required, unless 
waived by the Administrator, before and after any vehicle maintenance 
which may reasonably be expected to affect emissions.

    (a) Any unscheduled engine, emission control system, or fuel system 
adjustment, repair, removal, disassembly, cleaning, or replacement on 
vehicles shall be performed only with the advance approval of the 
Administrator.
    (1) In the case of unscheduled maintenance, such approval will be 
given if the Administrator:
    (i) Has made a preliminary determination that part failure or system 
malfunction, or the repair of such failure or malfunction, does not 
render the vehicle unrepresentative of vehicles in use, and does not 
require direct access to the combustion chamber, except for spark plug, 
fuel injection component, or removable prechamber removal or 
replacement; and
    (ii) Has made a determination that the need for maintenance or 
repairs is indicated by an overt indication of malfunction such as 
persistent misfire, vehicle stall, overheating, fluid leakage, loss of 
oil pressure, or charge indicator warning.
    (2) Emission measurements may not be used as a means of determining 
the need for unscheduled maintenance under paragraph (a)(1)(i) of this 
section.
    (b) Repairs to vehicle components of test vehicles, other than the 
engine, emission control system, or fuel system, shall be performed only 
as a result of part failure, vehicle system malfunction, or with the 
advance approval of the Administrator.
    (c) The Administrator shall be given the opportunity to verify the 
extent of an overt indication of part failure and/or vehicle malfunction 
(e.g., misfire, stall), or an activation of an audible and/or visual 
signal, prior to the performance of any maintenance to which such overt 
indication or signal is relevant under the provisions of this section.
    (d) Equipment, instruments, or tools may not be used to identify 
malfunctioning, maladjusted, or defective engine components unless the 
same or equivalent equipment, instruments, or tools will be available at 
dealerships and other service outlets and
    (1) Are used in conjunction with scheduled maintenance on such 
components, and
    (2) Are used subsequent to the identification of a vehicle or engine 
malfunction, as provided in paragraph (a)(1) of this section for 
durability or emission data vehicles, or
    (3) Unless specifically authorized by the Administrator.
    (e) If the Administrator determines that part failure or system 
malfunction occurrence and/or repair rendered the vehicle 
unrepresentative of vehicles in use, the vehicle shall not be used as a 
test vehicle.
    (f) Complete emission tests are required, unless waived by the 
Administrator, before and after any vehicle maintenance which may 
reasonably be expected to affect emissions.



Sec. 86.430-78  Vehicle failure.

    Any test vehicle which incurs major mechanical failure necessitating 
disassembly of the engine shall not be used as a test vehicle. This 
prohibition does not apply to failures occurring after the completion of 
all required tests at the total test distance.
[49 FR 48139, Dec. 10, 1984]



Sec. 86.431-78  Data submission.

    (a) Data from all tests (including voided tests) performed by a 
manufacturer with total projected sales in excess of 10,000 vehicles 
shall be included in the application.
    (b) The manufacturer shall furnish to the Administrator explanation 
for voiding any test. The Administrator will determine if voiding the 
test was appropriate based upon the explanation given by the 
manufacturer. If the Administrator determines that voiding the test was 
not appropriate, the Administrator may require that the data

[[Page 586]]

from that test be used in the calculation of the deterioration factor 
for emissions.
    (c) When unscheduled or anticipated maintenance is performed, a 
complete record of all pertinent maintenance, including the malfunction 
diagnosis made, the corrective action taken, and the test data obtained 
shall be included in the application.
    (d) A complete record of all maintenance shall be supplied.

Sec. 86.432-78  Deterioration factor.

    (a) Deterioration factors shall be developed for each test vehicle 
from the emission test results. A separate factor shall be developed for 
each pollutant. The applicable data to be used in calculating these 
factors are:
    (1) The results from all valid tests conducted by the manufacturer 
or Administrator at scheduled test intervals.
    (2) The results from tests conducted before and after scheduled 
maintenance unless specifically excluded by the Administrator.
    (3) The results from tests conducted before and after unscheduled 
maintenance, if approval of the maintenance by the Administrator was 
conditioned on the data being used in the deterioration factor 
calculation.
    (b) Emission results which are less than 0.10 g/km shall be 
considered to be 0.10 g/km for purposes of this section.
    (c) Test results for each pollutant shall be plotted as a function 
of the service accumulated at the start of the emission test, rounded to 
the nearest kilometre. These results shall be correlated to a straight 
line, fit by the method of least squares.
    (d) An exhaust emission deterioration factor will be calculated by 
dividing the predicted emissions at the useful life distance by the 
predicted emissions at the total test distance. Predicted emissions are 
obtained from the correlation developed in paragraph (c) of this 
section.

Factor = Predicted total distance emissions/Predicted total test 
          distance emissions


These interpolated and extrapolated values shall be carried out to four 
places to the right of the decimal point before dividing one by the 
other to determine the deterioration factor. The results shall be 
rounded to three places to the right of the decimal point in accordance 
with ASTM E 29-67.
    (e) Deterioration factors computed to be less than 1.000 shall be 
1.000.
    (f)(1) The manufacturer has the option of applying an outlier test 
point procedure to completed durability data within its certification 
testing program for a given model year.
    (2) The outlier procedure will be specified by the Administrator.
    (3) For any pollutant, durability-data test points that are 
identified as outliers shall not be included in the determination of 
deterioration factors if the manufacturer has elected this option.
    (4) The manufacturer shall specify to the Administrator, before the 
certification of the first engine family for that model year, if it 
intends to use the outlier procedure.
    (5) The manufacturer may not change procedures after the first 
engine family of the model year is certified.
    (6) Where the manufacturer chooses to apply the outlier procedure to 
a data set containing data which were averaged under Sec. 86.427-78(e), 
the outlier procedure shall be completed before averaging the data.

FR 48139, Dec. 10, 1984]



Sec. 86.434-78  Testing by the Administrator.

    (a) At the conclusion of service accumulation, and after emission 
tests for deterioration, the Administrator may require confirmatory 
testing. The Administrator will designate where such testing shall be 
performed.
    (b) The manufacturer may request a retest. The results of the retest 
will be used to determine compliance.
    (c) If the emission results exceed the standard, certification will 
be denied.
[49 FR 48139, Dec. 10, 1984]



Sec. 86.435-78  Extrapolated emission values.

    (a) If the deterioration factor lines are below the standards 
between the minimum test distance and the useful life, or if all points 
used to generate

[[Page 587]]

the lines are below the standards, predicted useful life emissions shall 
be calculated. If not, the manufacturers may elect to withdraw the 
vehicle or accumulate additional service.
    (b) The emission test results of each pollutant obtained from the 
half life test will be multiplied by the appropriate deterioration 
factors to determine useful life emissions.
    (1) If the useful life emissions are below the standards, 
certification will be granted.
    (2) If any of the useful life emissions exceed the emission 
standards, the vehicle must (if not withdrawn) accumulate distance to 
the useful life.
[42 FR 1126, Jan. 5, 1977, as amended at 49 FR 48139, Dec. 10, 1984]



Sec. 86.436-78  Additional service accumulation.

    (a) Additional service up to the useful life will be accumulated 
under the same conditions as the initial service accumulation.
    (b) New deterioration lines will be generated using all applicable 
test points up to the useful life. The same procedures for determining 
the original deterioration lines will be used.
    (c) [Reserved]
    (d) To qualify for certification:
    (1) The full life emission test results must be below the standards, 
and
    (2) The deterioration line must be below the standard at the minimum 
test distance and the useful life, or all points used to generate the 
line, must be below the standard.
    (e) If the vehicle is unable to complete the total distance due to 
engine mechanical failure, certification will be granted if:
    (1) The mechanical failure was anticipated, Sec. 86.428, and
    (2) A new deterioration line calculated using the procedure 
described in Sec. 86.436-78(b) is below the standard at the minimum test 
distance and at the useful life, and,
    (3) The results of the half life emission tests, when adjusted by 
the new deterioration factors, are below the standards.

    (ii) A statement signed by the authorized representative of the 
manufacturer stating: ``The vehicles described herein have been tested 
in accordance with the provisions of subpart E, part 86, title 40, of 
the Code of Federal Regulations, and on the basis of these tests are in 
conformance with that subpart. All of the data and records required by 
that subpart are on file and are available for inspection by the 
Administrator. Total sales of vehicles subject to this subpart will be 
limited to less than 10,000 units.''
    (2) If, after a review of the statement the Administrator determines 
that the requirements of this subpart have been met, he will issue a 
certificate of conformity with respect to the described vehicles except 
in cases covered by Sec. 86.442.
    (3) Such certificate will be issued for such a period not to exceed 
one model year as the Administrator may determine and upon such terms as 
he may deem necessary to assure that any new motorcycle covered by the 
certificate will meet the requirements of the Act and of this subpart.
    (4) The certificate will cover all vehicles described by the 
manufacturer.
    (5)(i) If, after a review of the statements and descriptions

will, if appropriate, select a new test vehicle. Except as provided in 
Sec. 86.439, no changes may be instituted until approved by the 
Administrator.
    (b) The Administrator may allow reduced testing.



Sec. 86.439-78  Alternative procedure for notification of additions and changes.

    (a)(1) A manufacturer may, in lieu of notifying the Administrator in 
advance of an addition of a vehicle or a change in a vehicle under 
Sec. 86.438-78, notify the

[[Page 589]]

Administrator concurrently with the addition of a vehicle or the making 
of a change in a vehicle if the manufacturer determines that following 
the change all vehicles affected by the addition or change will still 
meet the applicable emission standards.
    (2) Such notification shall include a full description of the 
addition or change and any supporting documentation the manufacturer may 
include to support the manufacturer's determination that the addition or

Sec. 86.441-78  Right of entry.

    (a) Any manufacturer who has applied for certification of a new 
motorcycle subject to certification tests under this subpart shall admit 
or cause to be admitted any EPA Enforcement Officer during operating 
hours on presentation of any credentials to any of the following:
    (1) Any facility where any such tests or any procedures or 
activities connected with such tests are or were performed.
    (2) Any facility where any new motorcycle which is being, was or is 
to be tested is present.
    (3) Any facility where any construction process or assembly process 
used in the modification or build-up of such a vehicle into a 
certification vehicle is taking place or has taken place.
    (4) Any facility where any record or other document relating to any 
of the above is located.
    (b) Upon admission to any facility referred to in paragraph (c)(1) 
of this section, any EPA Enforcement Officer shall be allowed:
    (1) To inspect and monitor any part or aspect of such procedures, 
activities, and testing facilities, including, but not limited to, 
monitoring vehicle preconditioning, emissions tests and service 
accumulation, maintenance, and vehicle soak and storage procedures; and 
to verify correlation or calibration of test equipment;
    (2) To inspect and make copies of any such records, designs, or 
other documents; and
    (3) To inspect and/or photograph any part or aspect of any such 
certification vehicle and any components to be used in the construction 
thereof.
    (c) In order to allow the Administrator to determine whether or not 
production motorcycles conform in all material respects to the design 
specifications which applied to those vehicles described in the 
application for certification for which a certificate of conformity has 
been issued and to standards prescribed under section 202 of the Act, 
any manufacturer shall

[[Page 591]]

admit any EPA Enforcement Officer on presentation of credentials to 
both:
    (1) Any facility where any document design, or procedure relating to 
the translation of the design and construction of engines and emission 
related components described in the application for certification or 
used for certification testing into production vehicles is located or 
carried on; and
    (2) Any facility where any motorcycles to be introduced into 
commerce are manufactured or assembled.
    (d) On admission to any such facility referred to in paragraph 
(c)(3) of this section, any EPA Enforcement Officer shall be allowed:
    (1) To inspect and monitor any aspects of such manufacture or 
assembly and other procedures;
    (2) To inspect and make copies of any such records, documents or 
designs; and
    (3) To inspect and photograph any part or aspect of any such new 
motorcycles and any component used in the assembly thereof that are 
reasonably related to the purpose of his entry.
    (e) Any EPA Enforcement Officer shall be furnished by those in 
charge of a facility being inspected with such reasonable assistance as 
he may request to help him discharge any function listed in this 
paragraph. Each applicant for or recipient of certification is required 
to cause those in charge of a facility operated for its benefit to 
furnish such reasonable assistance without charge to EPA whether or not 
the applicant controls the facility.
    (f) The duty to admit or cause to be admitted any EPA Enforcement 
Officer applies whether or not the applicant owns or controls the 
facility in question and applies both to domestic and to foreign 
manufacturers and facilities. EPA will not attempt to make any 
inspections which it has been informed that local law forbids. However, 
if local law makes it impossible to do what is necessary to insure the 
accuracy of data generated at a facility, no informed judgment that a 
vehicle or engine is certifiable or is covered by a certificate can 
properly be based on that data. It is the responsibility of the 
manufacturer to locate its testing and manufacturing facilities in 
jurisdictions where this situation will not arise.
    (g) For purposes of this section:
    (1) Presentation of credentials shall mean display of the document 
designating a person as an EPA Enforcement Officer.
    (2) Where vehicle, component, or engine storage areas or facilities 
are concerned, operating hours shall mean all times during which 
personnel other than custodial personnel are at work in the vicinity of 
the area or facility and have access to it.
    (3) Where facilities or areas other than those covered by paragraph 
(g)(2) of this section are concerned, operating hours shall mean all 
times during which an assembly line is in operation or all times during 
which testing, maintenance, service accumulation, production or 
compilation of records, or any other procedure or activity related to 
certification testing, to translation of designs from the test stage to 
the production stage, or to vehicle manufacture or assembly is being 
carried out in a facility.
    (4) Reasonable assistance includes, but is not limited to, clerical, 
copying, interpretation and translation services, the making available 
on request of personnel of the facility being inspected during their 
working hours to inform the EPA Enforcement Officer of how the facility 
operates and to answer his questions, and the performance on request of 
emissions tests on any vehicle which is being, has been, or will be used 
for certification testing. Such tests shall be nondestructive, but may 
require appropriate service accumulation. A manufacturer may be 
compelled to cause the personal appearance of any employee at such a 
facility before an EPA Enforcement Officer by written request for his 
appearance, signed by the Assistant Administrator for Enforcement, 
served on the manufacturer. Any such employee who has been instructed by 
the manufacturer to appear will be entitled to be accompanied, 
represented, and advised by counsel. No counsel who accompanies, 
represents, or advises an employee compelled to appear may accompany, 
represent, or advise any other person in the investigation.

[[Page 592]]

    (5) Any entry without 24 hours prior written or oral notification to 
the affected manufacturer shall be authorized in writing by the 
Assistant Administrator for Enforcement.



Sec. 86.442-78  Denial, revocation, or suspension of certification.

    (a) Notwithstanding the fact that any certification vehicle(s) may 
comply with other provisions of this subpart, the Administrator may 
withhold or deny the issuance of a certificate of conformity (or suspend 
or revoke any such certificate which has been issued) with respect to 
any such vehicle(s) if:
    (1) The manufacturer submits false or incomplete information in his 
application for certification thereof; or
    (2) The manufacturer renders inaccurate or invalid any test data 
which he submits pertaining thereto or otherwise circumvents the intent 
of the Act or of this subpart with respect to such vehicle; or
    (3) Any EPA Enforcement Officer is denied access on the terms 
specified in Sec. 86.441 to any facility or portion thereof which 
contains any of the following:
    (i) The vehicle, or
    (ii) Any components used or considered for use in its modification 
or build-up into a certification vehicle, or
    (iii) Any production vehicle which is or will be claimed by the 
manufacturer to be covered by the certificate, or
    (iv) Any step in the construction of a vehicle described in 
paragraph (c) of this section, or
    (v) Any records, documents, reports, or histories required by this 
part to be kept concerning any of the above.
    (4) Any EPA Enforcement Officer is denied ``reasonable assistance'' 
(as defined in Sec. 86.444) in examining any of the items listed in 
paragraph (a)(1)(iii) of this section.
    (b) The sanctions of withholding, denying, revoking, or suspending 
of a certificate may be imposed for the reasons in paragraph (a) of this 
section only when the infraction is substantial.
    (c) In any case in which a manufacturer knowingly submits false or 
inaccurate information, or knowingly renders inaccurate or invalid any 
test data, or commits any fraudulent acts and such acts contribute 
substantially to the Administrator's decision to issue a certificate of 
conformity, the Administrator may deem such certificate void ab initio.
    (d) In any case in which certification of a vehicle is proposed to 
be withheld, denied, revoked, or suspended under paragraph (a) (3) or 
(4) of this section, and in which the Administrator has presented to the 
manufacturer involved reasonable evidence that a violation of 
Sec. 86.441 in fact occurred, the manufacturer, if the wishes to contend 
that, even though the violation occurred, the vehicle in question was 
not involved in the violation to a degree that would warrant 
withholding, denial, revocation, or suspension of certification under 
either paragraph (a) (3) or (4) of this section, shall have the burden 
of establishing that contention to the satisfaction of the 
Administrator.
    (e) Any revocation or suspension of certification under paragraph 
(a) of this section shall:
    (1) Be made only after the manufacturer concerned has been offered 
an opportunity for a hearing conducted in accordance with Sec. 86.444 
hereof.
    (2) Extend no further than to forbid the introduction into commerce 
of vehicles previously covered by the certification which are still in 
the hands of the manufacturer, except in cases of such fraud or other 
misconduct as makes the certification invalid ab initio.
    (f) The manufacturer may request in the form and manner specified in 
Sec. 86.443 that any determination made by the Administrator under 
paragraph (a) of this section to withhold or deny certification be 
reviewed in a hearing conducted in accordance with Sec. 86.444. If the 
Administrator finds, after a review of the request and supporting data, 
that the request raises a substantial factual issue, he will grant the 
request with respect to such issue.

Sec. 86.509-90  Exhaust gas sampling system.

    (a)(1) General. The exhaust gas sampling system is designed to 
measure the true mass emissions of vehicle exhaust. In the CVS concept 
of measuring mass emissions, two conditions must be satisfied: the total 
volume of the mixture of exhaust and dilution air must be measured and a 
continuously proportioned volume of sample must be collected for 
analysis. Mass emissions are determined from the sample concentration 
and totalized flow over the test period.
    (2) Vehicle tailpipe to CVS duct. For methanol fueled vehicles, 
cooling of the exhaust gases in the duct connecting the vehicle tailpipe 
to the CVS shall be minimized. This may be accomplished by:
    (i) Using a duct of unrestricted length maintained at a temperature 
above the maximum dew point of the exhaust, but below 121  deg.C (250 
deg.F); heating and possibly cooling capabilities are required; or
    (ii) Using a short duct (up to 12 feet long) constructed of smooth 
wall pipe with a minimum of flexible sections, maintained at a 
temperature above the maximum dew point of the exhaust, but below 121 
deg.C (250  deg.F), prior to the test and during any breaks in the test 
and uninsulated during the test (insulation may remain in place and/or 
heating may occur during testing provided maximum temperature is not 
exceeded); or
    (iii) Using smooth wall duct less than five feet long with no 
required heating. A maximum of two short flexible connectors are allowed 
under this option; or
    (iv) Omitting the duct and performing the exhaust gas dilution 
function at the motorcycle tailpipe exit.
    (3) Positive displacement pump. The Positive Displacement Pump-
Constant Volume Sampler (PDP-CVS), Figure F90-1 satisfies the first 
condition by metering at a constant temperature and pressure through the 
pump. The total volume is measured by counting the revolutions made by 
the calibrated positive displacement pump. The proportional samples are 
achieved by sampling at a constant flow rate. For methanol-fueled 
motorcycle sample lines for the methanol and formaldehyde samples are 
heated to prevent condensation. The temperature of the sample lines 
shall be more than 3  deg.C (5  deg.F) above the maximum dew point of 
the sample, but below 121  deg.C (250  deg.F). (Note: For 1990 through 
1994 model year methanol-fueled motorcycles, methanol and formaldehyde 
sampling may be omitted provided the bag sample (hydrocarbons and 
methanol) is analyzed using a HFID calibrated with methanol.)

[[Page 596]]

[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR06OC93.173


    (4) Critical flow venturi. The operation of the Critical Flow 
Venturi--Constant Volume Sampler (CFV-CVS) sample system, Figure F90-2, 
is based upon the principles of fluid dynamics associated with critical 
flow. Proportional sampling throughout temperature excursions is 
maintained by use of small

[[Page 597]]

CFVs in the sample lines, which respond to the varying temperatures in 
the same manner as the main CFV. For methanol-fueled motorcycles, the 
methanol and formaldehyde sample lines are heated to prevent 
condensation. The temperature of the sample lines shall be more than 3 
deg.C (5  deg.F) above the maximum dew point of the sample, but below 
121  deg.C (250  deg.F). Care must be taken to ensure that the CFVs of 
the sample probes are not heated since heating of the CFVs would cause 
loss of proportionality. (Note: For 1990 through 1994 model year 
methanol-fueled motorcycles, methanol and formaldehyde sampling may be 
omitted provided the bag sample (hydrocarbons and methanol) is analyzed 
using a HFID calibrated with methanol.) Total flow per test is 
determined by continuously computing and integrating instantaneous flow. 
A low response time temperature sensor is necessary for accurate flow 
calculation.

    (5) Electronic Flow Control. The Critical Flow Venturi--Electronic 
Flow Control--Constant Volume Sampler (CFV-EFC-CVS) system is identical 
to the CFV-CVS system described in paragraphs (a)(4) and (c) of this 
section, except that it maintains proportional sampling for methanol and 
formaldehyde by measuring the CVS flow rate, and electronically 
controlling sample flow rates. It is recommended that sample volumes be 
measured by separate flow meters. For methanol-fueled motorcycles, the 
samples lines for the methanol and formaldehyde samples are heated to 
prevent condensation. The temperature of the sample lines shall be more 
than 20  deg.F (11  deg.C) above

[[Page 600]]

the maximum dew point of the sample, but below 121  deg.C (250  deg.F).
    (6) Other systems. Other sampling systems may be used if shown to 
yield equivalent results, and if approved in advance by the 
Administrator (e.g., a heat exchanger with the CFV-CVS or an electronic 
flow integrator without a heat exchanger, with the PDP-CVS).
    (b) Component description, PDP-CVS. The PDP-CVS, Figure F90-1, 
consists of a dilution air filter and mixing assembly, heat exchanger, 
positive displacement pump, sampling systems including, probes and 
sampling lines which, in the case of the methanol-fueled motorcycles, 
are heated to prevent condensation (heating of the sample lines may be 
omitted, provided the methanol and formaldehyde sample collection 
systems are close coupled to the probes thereby preventing loss of 
sample due to cooling and resulting condensation in the sample lines), 
and associated valves, pressure and temperature sensors. The PDP-CVS 
shall conform to the following requirements:
    (1) Static pressure variations at the tailpipe(s) of the vehicle 
shall remain within 1.25 kPa (5.02 in 
H2O) of the static pressure variations measured during a 
dynamometer driving cycle with no connection to the tailpipe(s). 
(Sampling systems capable of maintaining the static pressure to within 
0.25 kPa (1.00 in. H2O) will be used 
by the Administrator if a written request substantiates the need for 
this closer tolerance.)
    (2) The gas mixture temperature, measured at a point immediately 
ahead of the positive displacement pump, shall be within 5 
deg.C (9  deg.F) of the designed operating temperature at the start of 
the test. The gas mixture temperature variation from its value at the 
start of the test shall be limited to 5  deg.C (9  deg.F) 
during the entire test. The temperature measuring system shall have an 
accuracy and precision of 1  deg.C (1.8  deg.F).
    (3) The pressure gauges shall have an accuracy and precision of 
0.4 kPa (3 mm Hg).
    (4) The location of the dilution air inlet shall be placed so as to 
use test-cell air for dilution and the flow capacity of the CVS shall be 
large enough to completely eliminate water condensation in the dilution 
and sampling systems. Control of water condensation with methanol-fueled 
vehicles is critical. Additional care may also be required to eliminate 
water condensation when testing natural gas and liquefied petroleum gas-
fueled vehicles. (Procedures for determining CVS flow rates are detailed 
in ``Calculation of Emissions and Fuel Economy When Using Alternative 
Fuels,'' EPA 460/3-83-009.) Dehumidifying the dilution air before 
entering the CVS is allowed. Heating the dilution air is also allowed, 
provided:
    (i) The air (or air plus exhaust gas) temperature does not exceed 
121  deg.C (250  deg.F).
    (ii) Calculation of the CVS flow rate necessary to prevent water 
condensation is based on the lowest temperature encountered in the CVS 
prior to sampling. (It is recommended that the CVS system be insulated 
when heated dilution air is used.)
    (iii) The dilution ratio is sufficiently high to prevent 
condensation in bag samples as they cool to room temperature.
    (5) Sample collection bags for dilution air and exhaust samples 
(hydrocarbons and carbon monoide) shall be of sufficient size so as not 
to impede sample flow. A single dilution air sample, covering the total 
test period, may be collected for the determination of methanol and 
formaldehyde background (methanol-fueled motorcycles).
    (6) The methanol sample collection system and the formaldehyde 
sample collection system shall each be of sufficient capacity so as to 
collect samples of adequate size for analysis without significant impact 
on the volume of dilute exhaust passing through the PDP. The systems 
shall also comply with the following requirements that apply to the 
design of the systems, not to individual tests:
    (i) The methanol system shall be designed such that if a test 
motorcycle continuously emitted the maximum allowable level of methanol 
(based on all applicable standards) the measured concentration in the 
primary impinger would exceed either 25 mg/l or a concentration equal to 
25 times the limit of detection for the GC analyzer.

[[Page 601]]

    (ii) The formaldehyde system shall be designed such that if a test 
motorcycle continuously emitted formaldehyde at a rate equal to twenty 
percent of the maximum allowable level of THCE (i.e., 1.0 g/km for a 5.0 
g/km standard), or the maximum formaldehyde level allowed by a specific 
formaldehyde standard, whichever is less, the concentration of 
formaldehyde in the DNPH solution of the primary impinger, or solution 
resulting from the extraction of the DNPH cartridge, shall exceed either 
2.5 mg/l or a concentration equal to 25 times the limit of detection for 
the HPLC analyzer.
    (iii) The methanol and formaldehyde systems shall be designed such 
that the primary impinger collects at least 90 percent of the analyte in 
the samples. The remaining analyte shall be collected by the secondary 
impinger. This requirement does not apply to dilution air samples, since 
they do not require secondary impingers, or to samples in which the 
concentrations approach the limit of detection.
    (c) Component description, CFV-CVS. The CFV-CVS sample system, 
Figure F90-2, consists of a dilution air filter and mixing assembly, a 
cyclone particulate separator, unheated sampling venturies for the bag 
samples, and for the methanol and formaldehyde samples from methanol-
fueled vehicles, samples lines heated to prevent condensation for the 
methanol and formaldehyde samples from methanol fueled vehicles (heating 
of the sample lines may be omitted provided, the methanol and 
formaldehyde sample collection systems are close coupled to the probes 
thereby preventing loss of sample due to cooling and resulting 
condensation in the sample lines), a critical flow venturi, and assorted 
valves, and pressure and temperature sensors. The CFV sample system 
shall conform to the following requirements:
    (1) Static pressure variations at the tailpipe(s) of the vehicle 
shall remain within 1.25 kPa (5.02 in H2O) of the 
static pressure variations measured during a dynamometer driving cycle 
with no connection to the tailpipe(s). (Sampling systems capable of 
maintaining the static pressure to within 0.25 kPa (1.00 in 
H2O) will be used by the Administrator if a written request 
substantiates the need for this closer tolerance.)
    (2) The temperature measuring system shall have an accuracy and 
precision of 1  deg.C (1.8  deg.F) and a response time of 
0.100 second to 62.5 percent of a temperature change (as measured in hot 
silicone oil).
    (3) The pressure measuring system shall have an accuracy and 
precision of 0.4 kPa (3 mm Hg).
    (4) The location of the dilution air inlet shall be placed so as to 
use test-cell air for dilution and the flow capacity of the CVS shall be 
large enough to completely eliminate water condensation in the dilution 
and sampling systems. Control of water condensation with methanol-fueled 
vehicles is critical. Additional care may also be required to eliminate 
water condensation when testing natural gas and liquefied petroleum gas-
fueled vehicles. (Procedures for determining CVS flow rates are detailed 
in ``Calculation of Emissions and Fuel Economy When Using Alternative 
Fuels,'' EPA 460/3-83-009.) Dehumidifying the dilution air before 
entering the CVS is allowed. Heating the dilution air is also allowed, 
provided:
    (i) The air (or air plus exhaust gas) temperature does not exceed 
250  deg.F.
    (ii) Calculation of the CVS flow rate necessary to prevent water 
condensation is based on the lowest temperature encountered in the CVS 
prior to sampling. (It is recommended that the CVS system be insulated 
when heated dilution air is used.)
    (iii) The dilution ratio is sufficiently high to prevent 
condensation in bag samples as they cool to room temperature.
    (5) Sample collection bags for dilution air and exhaust samples 
(hydrocarbons and carbon monoxide) shall be of sufficient size so as not 
to impede sample flow. A single dilution air sample, covering the total 
test period, may be collected for the determination of methanol and 
formaldehyde background (methanol-fueled motorcycles).
    (6) The methanol sample collection system and the formaldehyde 
sample collection system shall each be of sufficient capacity so as to 
collect samples of adequate size for analysis without

[[Page 602]]

significant impact on the volume of dilute exhaust passing through the 
CVS. The systems shall also comply with the following requirements that 
apply to the design of the systems, not to individual tests:
    (i) The methanol system shall be designed such that if a test 
motorcycle continuously emitted the maximum allowable level of methanol 
(based on all applicable standards) the measured concentration in the 
primary impinger would exceed either 25 mg/l or a concentration equal to 
25 times the limit of detection for the GC analyzer.
    (ii) The formaldehyde system shall be designed such that if a test 
motorcycle continuously emitted formaldehyde at a rate equal to twenty 
percent of the maximum allowable level of THCE (i.e., 1.0 g/km for a 5.0 
g/km standard), or the maximum formaldehyde level allowed by a specific 
formaldehyde standard, whichever is less, the concentration of 
formaldehyde in the DNPH solution of the primary impinger, or solution 
resulting from the extraction of the DNPH cartridge, shall exceed either 
2.5 mg/l or a concentration equal to 25 times the limit of detection for 
the HPLC analyzer.
    (iii) The methanol and formaldehyde systems shall be designed such 
that the primary impinger collects at least 90 percent of the analyte in 
the samples. The remaining analyte shall be collected by the secondary 
impinger. This requirement does not apply to dilution air samples, since 
they do not require secondary impingers, or to samples in which the 
concentrations approach the limit of detection.
    (d) Component description, CFV-EFC-CVS. The CVS sample system is 
identical to the system described in paragraph (c) of this section, plus 
includes a means of electronically measuring the CVS flow rate, and 
electronic mass flow controllers for the methanol and formaldehyde 
sample lines, and separate flow meters to totalize sample flow volumes 
(optional). The EFC sample system shall conform to all of the 
requirements listed in paragraph (c) of this section, except that the 
methanol and formaldehyde samples mat both be drawn from a single static 
probe. It also must comply with the following additional requirements:
    (1) The ratio of the CVS flow rate to the sample flow rate shall not 
deviate from the ratio at the start of the test by more than 
5 percent. (The volumetric sample flow rate shall be varied 
inversely with the square root of the bulk stream temperature.)
    (2) Flow totalizers for methanol and/or formaldehyde samples shall 
have an accuracy of 2 percent. Total sample volumes may be 
obtained from the flow controllers, with the advance approval of the 
administrator, provided that the controllers can be shown to have an 
accuracy of 2 percent.

Sec. 86.511-90  Exhaust gas analytical system.

    (a) Schematic drawings. Figure F90-3 is a schematic drawing of the 
exhaust gas analytical system for analysis of hydrocarbons (HC) 
(hydrocarbons plus methanol in the case of methanol-fueled motorcycles), 
carbon monoxide (CO), carbon dioxide (CO2), and oxides of 
nitrogen (NOX). Since various configurations can produce 
accurate results, exact conformance with the drawing is not required. 
Additional components such as instruments, valves, solenoids, pumps and 
switches may be used to provide additional information and coordinate 
the functions of the component systems

[[Page 603]]

[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR06OC93.176


    (b) Major component description. The exhaust gas analytical system 
for HC, CO and CO2, Figure F90-3, consists of a flame 
ionization detector (FID) (heated (235 deg.15  deg.C 
(113 deg.8  deg.C)) for methanol-fueled vehicles) for the 
determination of hydrocarbons, nondispersive infrared analyzers (NDIR) 
for the determination of carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide and, if 
oxides of nitrogen are measured, a chemiluminescence analyzer (CL) for 
the determination of oxides of nitrogen. The analytical system for 
methanol consists of a gas chromatograph (GC) equipped with a flame 
ionization detector. The analysis for formaldehyde is performed using 
high pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC) of 2,4-

[[Page 604]]

dinitrophenylhydrazine (DNPH) derivatives using ultraviolet (UV) 
detection. The exhaust gas analytical system shall conform to the 
following requirements:
    (1) The CL requires that the nitrogen dioxide present in the sample 
be converted to nitric oxide before analysis. Other types of analyzers 
may be used if shown to yield equivalent results and if approved in 
advance by the Administrator.
    (2) The carbon monoxide (CO) NDIR analyzer may require a sample 
conditioning column containing CaSO4, or indicating silica 
gel to remove water vapor and containing ascarite to remove carbon 
dioxide from the CO analysis stream.
    (i) If CO instruments which are essentially free of CO2 
and water vapor interference are used, the use of the conditioning 
column may be deleted, see Secs. 86.522 and 86.544.
    (ii) A CO instrument will be considered to be essentially free of 
CO2 and water vapor interference if its response to a mixture 
of 3 percent CO2 in N2 which has been bubbled 
through water at room temperature produces an equivalent CO response, as 
measured on the most sensitive CO range, which is less than 1 percent of 
full scale CO concentration on ranges above 300 ppm full scale or less 
than 3 ppm on ranges below 300 ppm full scale; see Sec. 86.522.
    (c) Other analyzers and equipment. Other types of analyzers and 
equipment may be used if shown to yield equivalent results and if 
approved in advance by the Administrator.

series of idle, acceleration, cruise, and deceleration modes of various 
time sequences and rates. Appropriate driving schedules are as follows:

Class I--Appendix I(c)
Class II--Appendix I(b)
Class III--Appendix I(b)

    (b) The speed tolerance at any given time on the dynamometer driving 
schedule prescribed in appendix I or as printed on a driver's aid chart 
approved by the Administrator, when conducted

[[Page 609]]

to meet the requirements of Sec. 86.537 is defined by upper and lower 
limits. The upper limit is 3.2 km/h (2 mph) higher than the highest 
point on the trace within 1 second of the given time. The lower limit is 
3.2 km/h (2 mph) lower than the lowest point on the trace within 1 
second of the given time. Speed variations greater than the tolerances 
(such as may occur during gear changes) are acceptable provided they 
occur for less than 2 seconds on any occasion. Speeds lower than those 
prescribed are acceptable provided the vehicle is operated at maximum 
available power during such occurrences. When conducted to meet the 
requirements of Sec. 86.532 the speed tolerance shall be as specified 
above, except that the upper and lower limits shall be 6.4 km/h (4 mph).
    (c) Figure F78-4 shows the range of acceptable speed tolerances for 
typical points. Figure F78-4(a) is typical of portions of the speed 
curve which are increasing or decreasing throughout the two second time 
interval. Figure F78-4(b) is typical of portions of the speed curve 
which include a maximum or minimum value.

Sec. 86.516-90  Calibrations, frequency and overview.

    (a) Calibrations shall be performed as specified in Secs. 86.517 
through 86.526.
    (b) [Reserved]
    (c) At least monthly or after any maintenance which could alter 
calibration, the following calibrations and checks shall be performed:
    (1) Calibrate the hydrocarbon analyzer, methane analyzer, carbon 
dioxide analyzer, carbon monoxide analyzer, and oxides of nitrogen 
analyzer (certain analyzers may require more frequent calibration 
depending on particular equipment and uses).

Sec. 86.518-78  Dynamometer calibration.

    (a) The dynamometer shall be calibrated at least once each month or 
performance verified at least once each week and then calibrated as 
required. The dynamometer is driven above the test speed range. The 
device used to drive the dynamometer is then disengaged from the 
dynamometer and the roll is allowed to coast down. The kinetic energy of 
the system is dissipated by the dynamometer. This method neglects the 
variations in roll bearing friction due to the drive axle weight of the 
vehicle.
    (b) Calibration shall consist of coasting down the dynamometer for 
each inertia load combination used. Coastdown times for the interval 
from 70 to 60 km/h shall be within the tolerances specified in 
Sec. 86.529. The dynamometer adjustments necessary to produce these 
results shall be noted for future reference.
    (c) The performance check consists of conducting a dynamometer 
coastdown at one or more inertia-horsepower settings and comparing the 
coastdown time to the table in Figure F98-9 of Sec. 86.529-98. If the 
coastdown time is outside the tolerance, a new calibration is required.

Sec. 86.519-78  Constant volume sampler calibration.

    The CVS (Constant Volume Sampler) is calibrated using an accurate 
flowmeter and restrictor valve. Measurements of various parameters are 
made and related to flow through the unit. Procedures used by EPA for 
both PDP (Positive Displacement Pump) and CFV (Critical Flow Venturi) 
are outlined below. Other procedures yielding equivalent results may be 
used if approved in advance by the Administrator. After the calibration 
curve has been obtained, verification of the entire system can be 
performed by injecting a known mass of gas into the system and comparing 
the mass indicated by the system to the true mass injected. An indicated 
error does not necessarily mean that the calibration is wrong, since 
other factors can influence the accuracy of the system, e.g. analyzer 
calibration. A verification procedure is found in paragraph (c) of this 
section.
    (a) PDP calibration. (1) The following calibration procedure 
outlines the equipment, the test configuration, and the various 
parameters which must be measured to establish the flow rate of the 
constant volume sampler pump. All the parameters related to the pump are 
simultaneously measured with the parameters related to a flowmeter which 
is connected in series with the pump. The calculated flow rate (at pump 
inlet absolute pressure and temperature) can then be plotted versus a 
correlation function which is the value of a specific combination of 
pump parameters. The linear equation which relates the pump flow and the 
correlation function is then determined. In the event that a CVS has a 
multiple speed drive, a calibration for each range used must be 
performed.
    (2) This calibration procedure is based on the measurement of the 
absolute values of the pump and flowmeter parameters that relate the 
flow rate at each point. Three conditions must be

[[Page 611]]

maintained to assure the accuracy and integrity of the calibration 
curve. First, the pump pressures should be measured at taps on the pump 
rather than at the external piping on the pump inlet and outlet. 
Pressure taps that are mounted at the top center and bottom center of 
the pump drive headplate are exposed to the actual pump cavity 
pressures, and therefore reflect the absolute pressure differentials. 
Secondly, temperature stability must be maintained during the 
calibration. The laminar flowmeter is sensitive to inlet temperature 
oscillations which cause the data points to be scattered. Gradual 
changes (plus-minus1  deg.C (1.8  deg.F)) in temperature are 
acceptable as long as they occur over a period of several minutes. 
Finally, all connections between the flowmeter and the CVS pump must be 
absolutely void of any leakage.
    (3) During an exhaust emission test the measurement of these same 
pump parameters enables the user to calculate the flow rate from the 
calibration equation.
    (4) Connect a system as shown in Figure F78-5. Although particular 
types of equipment are shown, other configurations that yield equivalent 
results may be used if approved in advance by the Administrator. For the 
system indicated, the following data with given accuracy are required:

    (5) After the system has been connected as shown in Figure F78-5, 
set the variable restrictor in the wide open position and run the CVS 
pump for twenty minutes. Record the calibration data.
    (6) Reset the restrictor valve to a more restricted condition in an 
increment of pump inlet depression (about 1.0 kPa (4" H2O)) 
that will yield a minimum of six data points for the total calibration. 
Allow the system to stabilize for 3 minutes and repeat the data 
acquisition.
    (7) Data analysis: (i) The air flow rate, Qs, at each 
test point is calculated from the flowmeter data using the 
manufacturer's prescribed method.
    (ii) The air flow rate is then converted to pump flow, 
Vo, per revolution at absolute pump inlet temperature and 
pressure.

Vo = (Qs/n)  x  (Tp/293.15)  x  
(101.325/Pp)

where:
Vo = Pump flow, m 3/revolution (ft 3/
          revolution) at Tp, Pp
Qs = Meter air flow rate in standard cubic metres per 
          minute, standard conditions are 20  deg.C, 101.325 kPa (68 
          deg.F, 29.92 in. Hg).
n = Pump speed in revolutions per minute.
Tp = Pump inlet temperature, K(R) = PTI + 273.15 for English 
          units, Tp = PTI + 459.67
Pp = Absolute pump inlet pressure, kPa (in. Hg) = 
          PB-PPI for English units, Pp = 
          PB-PPI (SP. GR./13.57)
where:
PB = barometric pressure, kPa (in. Hg)
PPI = Pump inlet depression, kPa (in. fluid)
SP. GR. = Specific gravity of manometer fluid relative to water.

    (iii) The correlation function at each test point is then calculated 
from the calibration data:
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR06OC93.103

where:
Xo = correlation function.
Pp = The pressure differential from pump inlet to pump 
outlet, kPa (in. Hg) = Pe-Pp

[[Page 613]]

Pe = Absolute pump outlet pressure, kPa (in. Hg) = 
PB + PPO for English units, Pe = PB + 
PPO(SP. GR./13.57)

where:
PPO = Pressure head at pump outlet, kPa (in. fluid)

    (iv) A linear least squares fit is performed to generate the 
calibration equations which have the forms:

Vo = Do-M(Xo)
n = A-B(Pp)

Do, M, A, and B are the slope-intercept constants describing 
the lines.

    (8) A CVS system that has multiple speeds shall be calibrated on 
each speed used. The calibration curves generated for the ranges will be 
approximately parallel and the intercept values, DQ, will 
increase as the pump flow range decreases.
    (9) If the calibration has been performed carefully, the calculated 
values from the equation will be within plus-minus0.50 
percent of the measured value of VO. Values of M will vary 
from one pump to another, but values of DO for pumps of the 
same make, model, and range should agree within plus-minus3 
percent of each other. Particulate influx from use will cause the pump 
slip to decrease as reflected by lower values for M. Calibrations should 
be performed at pump startup and after major maintenance to assure the 
stability of the pump slip rate. Analysis of mass injection data will 
also reflect pump slip stability.
    (b) CFV calibration. (1) Calibration of the Critical Flow Venturi 
(CFV) is based upon the flow equation for a critical venturi. Gas flow 
is a function of inlet pressure and temperature:
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR06OC93.104

where:
Qs = Flow
Kv = Calibration coefficient
P = Absolute pressure
T = Absolute temperature


The calibration procedure described below establishes the value of the 
calibration coefficient at measured values of pressure, temperature and 
air flow.
    (2) The manufacturer's recommended procedure shall be followed for 
calibrating electronic portions of the CFV.
    (3) Measurements necessary for flow calibration are as follows:

    (4) Set up equipment as shown in Figure F78-6 and check for leaks. 
Any leaks between the flow measuring device and the critical flow 
venturi will seriously affect the accuracy of the calibration.
    (5) Set the variable flow restrictor to the open position, start the 
blower and allow the system to stabilize. Record data from all 
instruments.
    (6) Vary the flow restrictor and make at least 8 readings across the 
critical flow range of the venturi.
    (7) Data analysis. The data recorded during the calibration are to 
be used in the following calculations:

[[Page 615]]

    (i) The air flow rate, Qs, at each test point is 
calculated from the flow meter data using the manufacturer's prescribed 
method.
    (ii) Calculate values of the calibration coefficient for each test 
point:
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR06OC93.201

where:
Qs = Flow rate, standard conditions are 20  deg.C, 101.325 
kPa (68  deg.F, 29.92 in. Hg)
Tv = Temperature at venturi inlet, K(R).
Pv = Pressure at venturi inlet, kPa (mm Hg) = PB - 
PPI for English units Pv = PB - PPI (SP. GR./
13.57).
where:
PPI = Venturi inlet pressure depression, kPa (in. fluid).
SP. GR. = Specific gravity of manometer fluid, relative to water.

    (iii) Plot Kv as a function of venturi inlet depression. 
For sonic flow, Kv will have a relatively constant value. As 
pressure decreases (vacuum increases), the venturi becomes unchoked and 
Kv decreases (is no longer constant). See Figure F78-7.
    (iv) For a minimum of 8 points in the critical region calculate an 
average Kv and the standard deviation.
    (v) If the standard deviation exceeds 0.3 percent of the average 
Kv take corrective action.
    (c) CVS System Verification. The following ``gravimetric'' technique 
can be used to verify that the CVS and analytical instruments can 
accurately measure a mass of gas that has been injected into the system. 
(Verification can also be accomplished by constant flow metering using 
critical flow orifice devices.)
    (1) Obtain a small cylinder that has been charged with pure propane 
or carbon monoxide gas (caution--carbon monoxide is poisonous).
    (2) Determine a reference cylinder weight to the nearest 0.01 grams.
    (3) Operate the CVS in the normal manner and release a quantity of 
pure propane or carbon monoxide into the system during the sampling 
period (approximately 5 minutes).
    (4) The calculations of Sec. 86.544 are performed in the normal way 
except in the case of propane. The density of propane (0.6109 kg/m3 
/carbon atom (17.30 g/ft3 /carbon atom)) is used in place of 
the density of exhaust hydrocarbons. In the case of carbon monoxide, the 
density of 1.164 kg/m3 (32.97 g/ft3 ) is used.
    (5) The gravimetric mass is subtracted from the CVS measured mass 
and then divided by the gravimetric mass to determine the percent 
accuracy of the system.
    (6) The cause for any discrepancy greater than 
plus-minus2 percent must be found and corrected.

Sec. 86.519-90  Constant volume sampler calibration.

    (a) The CVS (Constant Volume Sampler) is calibrated using an 
accurate flowmeter and restrictor valve. Measurements of various 
parameters are made and related to flow through the unit. Procedures 
used by EPA for both PDP (Positive Displacement Pump) and CFV (Critical 
Flow Venturi) are outlined below. Other procedures yielding equivalent 
results may be used if approved in advance by the Administrator. After 
the calibration curve has been obtained, verification of the entire 
system can be performed by injecting a known mass of gas into the system 
and comparing the mass indicated by the system to the true mass 
injected. An indicated error does not necessarily mean that the 
calibration is wrong, since other factors can influence the accuracy of 
the system, e.g., analyzer calibration. A verification procedure is 
found in paragraph (d) of this section.
    (b) PDP calibration. (1) The following calibration procedures 
outlines the equipment, the test configuration, and the various 
parameters which must be measured to establish the flow rate of the 
constant volume sampler pump. All the parameters related to the pump are 
simultaneously measured with the parameters related to a flowmeter which 
is connected in series with the pump. The calculated flow rate (at pump 
inlet absolute pressure and temperature) can then be plotted versus a 
correlation function which is the value of a specific combination of 
pump parameters. The linear equation which relates the pump flow and the 
correlation function is then determined. In the event that a

[[Page 616]]

CVS has a multiple speed drive, a calibration for each range must be 
performed.
    (2) This calibration procedure is based on the measurement of the 
absolute values of the pump and flowmeter parameters that relate the 
flow rate at each point. Three conditions must be maintained to assure 
the accuracy and integrity of the calibration curve. First, the pump 
pressures should be measured at taps on the pump rather than at the 
external piping on the pump inlet and outlet. Pressure taps that are 
mounted at the top center and bottom center of the pump drive headplate 
are exposed to the actual pump cavity pressures, and therefore reflect 
the absolute pressure differentials. Secondly, temperature stability 
must be maintained during the calibration. The laminar flowmeter is 
sensitive to inlet temperature oscillations which cause the data points 
to be scattered. Gradual changes (1  deg.C (1.8 
deg.F)) in temperature are acceptable as long as they occur over a 
period of several minutes. Finally, all connections between the 
flowmeter and the CVS pump must be absolutely void of any leakage.
    (3) During an exhaust emission test the measurement of these same 
pump parameters enables the user to calculate the flow rate from the 
calibration equation.
    (4) Connect a system as shown in Figure F78-5. Although particular 
types of equipment are shown, other configurations that yield equivalent 
results may be used if approved in advance by the Administrator. For the 
system indicated, the following data with given accuracy are required:

    (5) After the system has been connected as shown in Figure F78-6, 
set the variable restrictor in the wide open position and run the CVS 
pump for twenty minutes. Record the calibration data.
    (6) Reset the restrictor valve to a more restricted condition in an 
increment of pump inlet depression (about 1.0 kPa (4 in. 
H2O)) that will yield a minimum of six data points for the 
total calibration. Allow the system to stabilize for 3 minutes and 
repeat the data acquisition.
    (7) Data analysis:
    (i) The air flow rate, Qs, at each test point is 
calculated from the flowmeter data using the manufacturers' prescribed 
method.
    (ii) The air flow rate is then converted to pump flow, Vo 
in m\3\ per revolution at absolute pump inlet temperature and pressure.
    Vo = (Qs/n)  x  (Tp/293)  x  
(101.3/Pp)

Where:
    (A) Vo = Pump flow, m\3\/rev (ft\3\/rev) at 
Tp, Pp.
    (B) Qs = Meter air flow rate in standard cubic meters per 
minute; standard conditions are 20  deg.C, 101.3 kPa (68  deg.F, 29.92 
in. Hg).
    (C) n = Pump speed in revolutions per minute.
    (D)(1) Tp = Pump inlet temperature, ( deg.K) = PTI + 273.
    (2) For English units, Tp = PTI + 460.
    (E)(1) Pp = Absolute pump inlet pressure, kPa (in. Hg) = 
PB - PPI.
    (2) For English units, Pp = PB - PPI(SP.GR./
13.57).

Where:

[[Page 617]]

    (F) PB = barometric pressure, kPa (in. Hg.).
    (G) PPI = Pump inlet depression, kPa (in. fluid).
    (H) SP.GR. = Specific gravity of manometer fluid relative to water.
    (iii) The correlation function at each test point is then calculated 
from the calibration data:
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR06OC93.105


Where:
    (A) Xo = correlation function.
    (B)  Pp = The pressure differential from pump 
inlet to pump outlet, kPa (in. Hg) = Pe - Pp.
    (C)(1) Pe = Absolute pump outlet pressure, kPa (in. Hg) = 
PB + PPO.
    (2) For English units, Pe = PB + PPO(SP.GR./
13.57).

Where:
    (D) PPO = Pressure head at pump outlet, kPa (in. fluid).
    (iv) A linear least squares fit is performed to generate the 
calibration equations which have the forms:
    Vo = Do - M(Xo)
    n = A - B( Pp)
    D0' M, A, and B are the slope-intercept constants, 
describing the lines.
    (8) A CVS system that has multiple speeds shall be calibrated on 
each speed used. The calibration curves generated for the ranges will be 
approximately parallel and the intercept values, D0' will 
increase as the pump flow range decreases.
    (9) If the calibration has been performed carefully, the calculated 
values from the equation will be within 0.50 percent of the 
measured value of Vo. Values of M will vary from one pump to 
another, but values of Do for pumps of the same make, model, 
and range should agree within 3 percent of each other. 
Particulate influx from use will cause the pump slip to decrease as 
reflected by lower values for M. Calibrations should be performed at 
pump startup and after major maintenance to assure the stability of the 
pump slip rate. Analysis of mass injection data will also reflect pump 
slip stability.
    (c) CFV calibration. (1) Calibration of the Critical Flow Venturi 
(CFV) is based upon the flow equation for a critical venturi. Gas flow 
is a function of inlet pressure and temperature:
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR06OC93.106


Where:
    (i) Qs = Flow.
    (ii) Kv = Calibration coefficient.
    (iii) P = Absolute pressure.
    (iv) T = Absolute temperature.
    The calibration procedure described below establishes the value of 
the calibration coefficient at the measured values of pressure, 
temperature and air flow.
    (2) The manufacturer's recommended procedure shall be followed for 
calibrating electronic portions of the CFV.
    (3) Measurements necessary for flow calibration are as follows:

    (4) Set up equipment as shown in Figure F78-6 and check for leaks. 
Any leaks between the flow measuring device and the critical flow 
venturi will seriously affect the accuracy of the calibration.
    (5) Set the variable flow restrictor to the open position, start the 
blower and allow the system to stabilize. Record data from all 
instruments.

[[Page 618]]

    (6) Vary the flow restrictor and make at least 8 readings across the 
critical flow range of the venturi.
    (7) Data analysis. The data recorded during the calibration are to 
be used in the following calculations:
    (i) The air flow rate, Qs, at each test point is 
calculated from the flowmeter data using the manufacturer's prescribed 
method.
    (ii) Calculate values of the calibration coefficient for each test 
point:
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR06OC93.107


Where:
    (A) Qs = Flow rate in m\3\/minute, standard conditions 
are 20  deg.C, 101.3 kPa (68  deg.F, 29.92 in. Hg)
    (B) Tv = Temperature at venturi inlet,  deg.K( deg.R).
    (C)(1) Pv = Pressure at venturi inlet, kPa (mm Hg) = 
PB-PPI.
    (2) For English units, Pv = PB - PPI (SP.GR./
13.57).

Where:
    (D) PPI = Venturi inlet pressure depression, kPa (in. fluid).
    (E) SP.GR.=Specific gravity of manometer fluid, relative to water.
    (iii) Plot Kv as a function of venturi inlet depression. 
For sonic flow, Kv will have a relatively constant value. As 
pressure decreases (vacuum increases), the venturi becomes unchoked and 
Kv decreases (is no longer constant). See Figure F78-7.
    (iv) For a minimum of 8 points in the critical region, calculate an 
average Kv and the standard deviation.
    (v) If the standard deviation exceeds 0.3 percent of the average 
Kv, take corrective action.
    (d) CVS system verification. The following ``gravimetric'' technique 
can be used to verify that the CVS and analytical instruments can 
accurately measure a mass of gas that has been injected into the system. 
If the CVS and analytical system will be used only in the testing of 
gasoline-fueled vehicles, the system verification may be performed using 
either propane or carbon monoxide. If the CVS and analytical system will 
be used with methanol-fueled vehicles as well as gasoline-fueled 
vehicles, system verification performance check must include a methanol 
check in addition to either the propane or carbon monoxide check. 
(Verification can also be accomplished by constant flow metering using 
critical flow orifice devices.)
    (1) Obtain a small cylinder that has been charged with pure propane 
or carbon monoxide gas (CAUTION--carbon monoxide is poisonous).
    (2) Determine a reference cylinder weight to the nearest 0.01 grams.
    (3) Operate the CVS in the normal manner and release a quantity of 
pure propane or carbon monoxide into the system during the sampling 
period (approximately 5 minutes).
    (4) Following completion of step (3) above (if methanol injection is 
required), continue to operate the CVS in the normal manner and release 
a known quantity of pure methanol (in gaseous form) into the system 
during the sampling period (approximately 5 minutes). This step does not 
need to be performed with each verification, provided that it is 
performed at least twice annually.
    (5) The calculations of Sec. 86.544 are performed in the normal way 
except in the case of propane. The density of propane (0.6109 kg/m\3\/
carbon atom (17.30 g/ft\3\/carbon atom)) is used in place of the density 
of exhaust hydrocarbons. In the case of carbon monoxide, the density of 
1.164 kg/m\3\ (32.97 g/ft\3\) is used. In the case of methanol, the 
density of 1.332 kg/m\3\ (37.71 g/ft\3\) is used.
    (6) The gravimetric mass is subtracted from the CVS measured mass 
and then divided by the gravimetric mass to determine the percent 
accuracy of the system.
    (7) The cause for any discrepancy greater than 2 percent 
must be found and corrected. The Administrator, upon request, may waive 
the requirement to comply with 2 percent methanol recovery 
tolerance, and instead require compliance with a higher tolerance (not 
to exceed 6 percent), provided that:
    (i) The Administrator determines that compliance with the specified 
tolerance is not practically feasible; and
    (ii) The manufacturer makes information available to the 
Administrator which indicates that the calibration tests and their 
results are consistent

[[Page 619]]

with good laboratory practice, and that the results are consistent with 
the results of calibration testing conducted by the Administrator.

Sec. 86.521-90  Hydrocarbon analyzer calibration.

    (a) The FID hydrocarbon analyzer shall receive the following initial 
and periodic calibration. The HFID used with methanol-fueled vehicles 
shall be operated at 235  deg.F15  deg.F (113 
deg.C8  deg.C).
    (b) Initial and periodic optimization of detector response. Prior to 
its introduction into service and at least annually thereafter, the FID 
hydrocarbon analyzer shall be adjusted for optimum hydrocarbon response. 
Analyzers used with petroleum fuels and liquefied petroleum gas-fuel 
shall be optimized using propane. Analyzers used with natural gas-fuel 
for measurement of hydrocarbons shall be optimized using methane. If a 
single analyzer is used for all measurements, it shall be optimized 
using propane and its response factor for methane shall be determined 
and accounted for in measurements of total hydrocarbons from natural 
gas-fuel. Alternate methods yielding equivalent results may be used, if 
approved in advance by the Administrator.
    (1) Follow the manufacturer's instructions or good engineering 
practice for instrument startup and basic operating adjustment using the 
appropriate FID fuel and zero-grade air.
    (2) Optimize on the most common operating range. Introduce into the 
analyzer a propane (methane as appropriate) in air mixture (methanol in 
air mixture for methanol-fueled vehicles when optional methanol 
calibrated FID procedure is used during the 1990 through 1994 model 
year) with a propane (or methane or methanol as appropriate) 
concentration equal to approximately 90 percent of the most common 
operating range.
    (3) Select an operating FID fuel flow rate that will give near 
maximum response and least variation in response with minor fuel flow 
variations.
    (4) To determine the optimum air flow, use the FID fuel flow setting 
determined above and vary air flow.
    (5) After the optimum flow rates have been determined, record them 
for future reference.
    (c) Initial and periodic calibration. Prior to its introduction into 
service and monthly thereafter the FID hydrocarbon analyzer shall be 
calibrated on all normally used instrument ranges, and, if applicable, 
the methanol response factor shall be determined (paragraph (d) of this 
section). Use the same flow rate as when analyzing sample.
    (1) Adjust analyzer to optimize performance.
    (2) Zero the hydrocarbon analyzer with zero grade air.
    (3) Calibrate on each normally used operating range with propane in 
air (or methanol or methane in air as appropriate) calibration gases 
having nominal concentrations of 15, 30, 45, 60, 75 and 90 percent of 
that range. For each range calibrated, if the deviation from a least 
squares best-fit straight line is two percent or less of the value at 
each data point, concentration values may be calculated by use of a 
single calibration factor for that range. If the deviation exceeds two 
percent at any point, the best-fit non-linear equation which represents 
the data to within two percent of each test point shall be used to 
determine concentration.
    (d) FID response factor to methanol. When the FID analyzer is to be 
used for the analysis of hydrocarbon samples containing methanol, the 
methanol response factor of the analyzer shall be established. The 
methanol response factor shall be determined at several concentrations 
in the range of concentrations in the exhaust sample, using either bag 
samples or gas bottles meeting the requirements of Sec. 86.514.
    (1) The bag sample, if used, of methanol for analysis in the FID 
shall be prepared using the apparatus shown in Figure F90-4. A known 
volume of methanol is injected, using a microliter syringe, into the 
heated mixing zone (250  deg.F (121  deg.C)) of the apparatus. The 
methanol is vaporized and swept into the sample bag with a known volume 
of zero grade air measured by a gas flow meter meeting the performance 
requirements of Sec. 86.120.

    (2) The bag sample is analyzed using the FID.
    (3) The FID response factor, r, is calculated as follows:
    r = FIDppm/SAMppm

Where:
    (i) r = FID response factor.

    (ii) FIDppm = FID reading, ppmC.

    (e) FID response factor to methane. When the FID analyzer is to be 
used for the analysis of natural gas-fueled motorcycle hydrocarbon 
samples, the methane response factor of the analyzer shall be 
established. To determine the total hydrocarbon FID response to methane, 
known methane in air concentrations traceable to National Institute of 
Standards and Technology (NIST) shall be analyzed by the FID. Several 
methane concentrations shall be analyzed by the FID in the range of 
concentrations in the exhaust sample. The total hydrocarbon FID response 
to methane is calculated as follows:
rCH4 = FIDppm/SAMppm

Where:
(1) rCH4 = FID response factor to methane.
(2) FIDppm = FID reading in ppmC.
(3) SAMppm = the known methane concentration in ppmC.

Sec. 86.522-78  Carbon monoxide analyzer calibration.

    (a) Initial and periodic interference check. Prior to its 
introduction into service and annually thereafter the NDIR carbon 
monoxide analyzer shall be checked for response to water vapor and 
CO2:
    (1) Follow the manufacturer's instructions for instrument 
startup and operation. Adjust the analyzer to optimize performance on 
the most sensitive range.
    (2) Zero the carbon monoxide analyzer with either zero grade air or 
zero grade nitrogen.
    (3) Bubble a mixture of 3 percent CO2 in N2 
through water at room temperature and record analyzer response.
    (4) An analyzer response of more than 1 percent of full scale for 
ranges above 300 ppm full scale or of more than 3 ppm on ranges below 
300 ppm full scale will require corrective action. (Use of conditioning 
columns is one form of corrective action which may be taken.)
    (b) Initial and periodic calibration. Prior to its introduction into 
service and monthly thereafter the NDIR carbon monoxide analyzer shall 
be calibrated.
    (1) Adjust the analyzer to optimize performance.
    (2) Zero the carbon monoxide analyzer with either zero grade air or 
zero grade nitrogen.
    (3) Calibrate on each normally used operating range with carbon 
monoxide in N2 calibration gases having nominal 
concentrations of 15, 30, 45, 60, 75, and 90 percent of that range. 
Additional calibration points may be generated. For each range 
calibrated, if the deviation from a least-squares best-fit straight line 
is 2 percent or less of the value at each data point, concentration 
values may be calculated by use of a single calibration factor for that 
range. If the deviation exceeds 2 percent at any point, the best-fit 
non-linear equation which represents the data to within 2 percent of 
each test point shall be used to determine concentration.



Sec. 86.523-78  Oxides of nitrogen analyzer calibration.

    (a) Prior to introduction into service and at least monthly 
thereafter, if oxides of nitrogen are measured, the chemiluminescent 
oxides of nitrogen analyzer must be checked for NO2 to NO 
converter efficiency. Figure F78-8 is a reference for paragraphs (a) (1) 
through (11) of this section.

[[Page 622]]

    (1) Follow the manufacturer's instructions for instrument startup 
and operation. Adjust the analyzer to optimize performance.
    (2) Zero the oxides of nitrogen analyzer with zero grade air or zero 
grade nitrogen.
    (3) Connect the outlet of the NOX generator to the sample 
inlet of the oxides of nitrogen analyzer which has been set to the most 
common operating range.
    (4) Introduce into the NOX generator analyzer-system a NO 
in nitrogen (N2) mixture with a NO concentration equal to 
approximately 80 percent of the most common operating range. The 
NO2 content of the gas mixture shall be less than 5 percent 
of the NO concentration.
    (5) With the oxides of nitrogen analyzer in the NO mode, record the 
concentration of NO indicated by the analyzer.
    (6) Turn on the NOX generator O2 (or air) 
supply and adjust the O2 (or air) flow rate so that the NO 
indicated by the analyzer is about 10 percent less than indicated in 
step 5. Record the concentration of NO in this NO + O2 
mixture.
    (7) Switch the NOX generator to the generation mode and 
adjust the generation rate so that the NO measured on

[[Page 623]]

the analyzer is 20 percent of that measured in step 5. There must be at 
least 10 percent unreacted NO at this point. Record the concentration of 
residual NO.
    (8) Switch the oxides of nitrogen analyzer to the NOX 
mode and measure total NOX. Record this value.
    (9) Switch off the NOX generation but maintain gas flow 
through the system. The oxides of nitrogen analyzer will indicate the 
NOX in the NO + O2 mixture. Record this value.
    (10) Turn off the NOX generator O2 (or air) 
supply. The analyzer will now indicate the NOX in the 
original NO in N2 mixture. This value should be no more than 
5 percent above the value indicated in step 4.
    (11) Calculate the efficiency of the NOX converter by 
substituting the concentrations obtained into the following equation:
Percent Efficiency = [1 + (a-b)/(c-d)]x100

where:
a = concentration obtained in step (8).
b = concentration obtained in step (9).
c = concentration obtained in step (6).
d = concentration obtained in step (7).


If converter efficiency is not greater than 90 percent corrective action 
will be required.
    (b) Initial and periodic calibration. Prior to its introduction into 
service and monthly thereafter, if oxides of nitrogen are measured, the 
chemiluminescent oxides of nitrogen analyzer shall be calibrated on all 
normally used instrument ranges. Use the same flow rate as when 
analyzing samples. Proceed as follows:
    (1) Adjust analyzer to optimize performance.
    (2) Zero the oxides of nitrogen analyzer with zero grade air or zero 
grade nitrogen.
    (3) Calibrate on each normally used operating range with NO in 
N2 calibration gases with nominal concentrations of 50 and 
100 percent of that range. Additional calibration points may be 
generated.
    (c) When testing methanol-fueled motorcycles, it may be necessary to 
clean the analyzer frequently to prevent interference with 
NOX measurements (see EPA/600/S3-88/040).

Sec. 86.524-78  Carbon dioxide analyzer calibration.

    (a) Prior to its introduction into service and monthly thereafter 
the NDIR carbon dioxide analyzer shall be calibrated:
    (1) Follow the manufacturer's instructions for instrument startup 
and operation. Adjust the analyzer to optimize performance.
    (2) Zero the carbon dioxide analyzer with either zero grade air or 
zero grade nitrogen.
    (3) Calibrate on each normally used operating range with carbon 
dioxide in N2 calibration gases with nominal concentrations 
of 15, 30, 45, 60, 75, and 90 percent of that range. Additional 
calibration points may be generated. For each range calibrated, if the 
deviation from a least-squares best-fit straight line is 2 percent or 
less of the value at each data point, concentration values may be 
calculated by use of a single calibration factor for that range. If the 
deviation exceeds 2 percent at any point, the best-fit non-linear 
equation which represents the data to within 2 percent of each test 
point shall be used to determine concentration.
    (b) [Reserved]



Sec. 86.526-90  Calibration of other equipment.

    Other test equipment used for testing shall be calibrated as often 
as required by the manufacturer or as necessary according to good 
practice. Specific equipment requiring calibration is the gas 
chromatograph and flame ionization detector used in measuring methanol 
and the high pressure liquid chromatograph (HPLC) and ultraviolet 
detector for measuring formaldehyde.
[54 FR 14551, Apr. 11, 1989]



Sec. 86.527-90  Test procedures, overview.

    (a) The procedures described in this and subsequent sections are 
used to determine the conformity of motorcycles with the standards set 
forth in subpart E of this part.

[[Page 624]]

    (b) The overall test consists of prescribed sequences of fueling, 
parking, and operating conditions.
    (c) The exhaust emission test is designed to determine hydrocarbon 
(gasoline-fueled, natural gas-fueled and liquefied petroleum gas-fueled 
motorcycles), methanol, formaldehyde, and hydrocarbon (methanol-fueled 
motorcycles), carbon monoxide and oxides of nitrogen mass emissions 
while simulating an average trip in an urban area. The test consists of 
engine startups and motorcycle operation on a chassis dynamometer, 
through a specified driving schedule. A proportional part of the diluted 
exhaust emissions is collected continuously for subsequent analysis, 
using a constant volume (variable dilution) sampler.
    (d) Except in cases of component malfunction or failure, all 
emission control systems installed on or incorporated in a new 
motorcycle shall be functioning during all procedures in this subpart. 
Maintenance to correct component malfunction or failure shall be 
authorized in accordance with subpart E of this part.
    (e) Background concentrations are measured for all species for which 
emissions measurements are made. For exhaust testing, this requires 
sampling and analysis of the dilution air. (When testing methanol-fueled 
motorcycles, manufacturers may choose not to measure background 
concentrations of methanol and/or formaldehyde, and then assume that the 
concentrations are zero during calculations.)

Sec. 86.528-78  Transmissions.

    (a) Vehicles equipped with transfer cases, multiple sprockets, etc., 
shall be tested in the manufacturer's recommended configuration for 
street or highway use. If more than one configuration is recommended or 
if the recommendation is deemed unreasonable by the Administrator, the 
Administrator will specify the test configuration.
    (b) All tests shall be conducted with automatic transmissions in 
``Drive'' (highest gear). Automatic clutch-torque converter 
transmissions may be shifted as manual transmissions at the option of 
the manufacturer.
    (c) Idle modes shall be run with automatic transmissions in 
``Drive'' and the wheels braked, manual transmission shall be in gear 
with the clutch disengaged; except first idle, see Secs. 86.536 and 
86.537.
    (d) The vehicle shall be driven with minimum throttle movement to 
maintain the desired speed. No simultaneous use of brake and throttle 
shall be permitted.
    (e) Acceleration modes shall be driven smoothly. Automatic 
transmissions shall shift automatically through the normal sequence of 
gears; manual transmissions shall be shifted as recommended by the 
manufacturer to the ultimate purchaser (unless determined to be 
unreasonable by the Administrator) with the operator closing the 
throttle during each shift and accomplishing the shift with minimum 
time. If the vehicle cannot accelerate at the specified rate, the 
vehicle shall be operated with the throttle fully opened until the 
vehicle speed reaches the value prescribed for that time in the driving 
schedule.
    (f) The deceleration modes shall be run in gear using brakes or 
throttle as necessary to maintain the desired speed. Manual transmission 
vehicles shall be downshifted using the same shift points as when 
upshifting or as recommended by the manufacturer in the vehicle owner's 
manual. All downshifts shall be made smoothly, disengaging the clutch 
while shifting and engaging the clutch once the lower gear has been 
selected. For those modes which require the vehicle to decelerate to 
zero, manual transmission clutches shall be disengaged when the speed 
drops below 15 km/h (9.3 mph) for vehicles with engine displacements 
equal to or greater than 280 cc (17.1 cu. in.), when the speed drops 
below 10 km/h (6.2 mph) for vehicles with engine displacements less than 
280 cc (17.1 cu. in.), when engine roughness is evident, or when engine 
stalling is imminent.
    (g) If downshifting during deceleration is not permitted in the 
vehicle owner's manual, manual transmissions will be downshifted at the 
beginning of or during a power mode if recommended by the manufacturer 
or if

[[Page 625]]

the engine obviously is lugging. For those modes which require these 
vehicles to decelerate to zero, manual transmission clutches shall be 
disengaged when the speed drops below 25 km/h (15.5 mph) for vehicles 
with engine displacement equal to or greater than 280 cc (17.1 cu. in.), 
when the speed drops below 20 km/h (12.4 mph) for vehicles with engine 
displacements less than 280 cc (17.1 cu. in.), when engine roughness is 
evident, or when engine stalling is imminent. While the clutch is 
disengaged and during these deceleration modes, the vehicle shall be 
shifted to the appropriate gear for starting the next mode.
    (h) If shift speeds are not recommended by the manufacturer, manual 
transmission vehicles shall be shifted as follows:
    (1) For Class I and II motorcycles:

 
------------------------------------------------------------------------
                Shift                                Speed

2d to 3d gear........................  45 km/h (28.0 mi/h).
3d to 4th gear.......................  60 km/h (37.3 mi/h).
4th to 5th gear......................  75 km/h (46.6 mi/h).
------------------------------------------------------------------------

    (3) Higher gears may be used at the manufacturer's option.



Sec. 86.529-78  Road load force and inertia weight determination.

    (a) Road load as a function of speed is given by the following 
equation:

F = A + CV 2

The values for coefficients A and C and the test inertia are given 
in Figure F78-9. Velocity (V) is in km/h and force (F) is in newtons. 
The forces given by this equation shall be simulated to the best ability 
of the equipment being used.
    (b) The inertia given in Figure F78-9 shall be used. Motorcycles 
with loaded vehicle mass outside these limits shall be tested at an 
equivalent inertial mass and road load force specified by the 
Administrator.

    (c) The dynamometer shall be adjusted to reproduce the specified 
road load as determined by the most recent calibration. Alternatively, 
the actual vehicle road load can be measured and duplicated:
    (1) Make at least 5 replicate coastdowns in each direction from 70 
to 60 km/h on a smooth, level, track under balanced wind conditions. The 
driver must have a mass of 80plus-minus10 kg and be in the 
normal driving position. Record the coastdown time.
    (2) Average the coastdown times. Adjust the dynamometer load so that 
the coastdown time is duplicated with the vehicle and driver on the 
dynamom-eter.
    (3) Alternate procedures may be used if approved in advance by the 
Administrator.



Sec. 86.529-98  Road load force and inertia weight determination.

    (a)(1) Road load as a function of speed is given by the following 
equation:

F = A + CV2

    (2) The values for coefficients A and C and the test inertia are 
given in Figure F98-9 of this section. Velocity V is in km/h and force 
(F) is in newtons. The forces given by the equation in paragraph (a)(1) 
of this section shall be simulated to the best ability of the equipment 
being used.
    (b) The inertia given in Figure F98-9 shall be used. Motorcycles 
with loaded

vehicle mass outside these limits shall be tested at an equivalent 
inertial mass and road load force specified by the Administrator. Figure 
F98-9 follows:

    (c) The dynamometer shall be adjusted to reproduce the specified 
road load as determined by the most recent calibration. Alternatively, 
the actual vehicle road load can be measured and duplicated:
    (1) Make at least 5 replicate coastdowns in each direction from 70 
to 60 km/h on a smooth, level track under balanced wind conditions. The 
driver must have a mass of 80 10 kg and be in the normal 
driving position. Record the coastdown time.
    (2) Average the coastdown times. Adjust the dynamometer load so that 
the coastdown time is duplicated with the vehicle and driver on the 
dynamometer.
    (3) Alternate procedures may be used if approved in advance by the 
Administrator.

Sec. 86.530-78  Test sequence, general requirements.

    (a) Ambient temperature levels encountered by the test vehicle 
throughout the test sequence shall not be less than 20  deg.C (68 
deg.F) nor more than 30  deg.C (86  deg.F). The vehicle shall be 
approximately level during the emission test to prevent abnormal fuel 
distribution.
    (b) [Reserved]



Sec. 86.531-78  Vehicle preparation.

    (a) The manufacturer shall provide additional fittings and adapters, 
as required by the Administrator * * *, such as * * * to accommodate a 
fuel drain at the lowest point possible in the tank(s) as installed on 
the vehicle and to provide for exhaust sample collection.
    (b) [Reserved]



Sec. 86.532-78  Vehicle preconditioning.

    (a) The vehicle shall be moved to the test area and the following 
operations performed:
    (1) The fuel tank(s) shall be drained through the provided fuel 
tank(s) drain(s) and charged with the specified test fuel, Sec. 86.513, 
to half the tank(s) capacity.
    (2) The vehicle shall be placed, either by being driven or pushed, 
on a dynamometer and operated through one Urban Dynamometer Driving 
Schedule test procedure (see Sec. 86.515 and appendix I). The vehicle 
need not be cold, and may be used to set dynamometer horsepower.
    (b) Within five (5) minutes of completion of preconditioning, the 
vehicle shall be removed from the dynamometer and may be driven or 
pushed to the soak area to be parked. The vehicle shall be stored for 
not less than the following times prior to the cold start exhaust test.

Sec. 86.535-90  Dynamometer procedure.

    (a) The dynamometer run consists of two tests, a ``cold'' start test 
and a ``hot'' start test following the ``cold'' start by 10 minutes. 
Engine startup (with all accessories turned off), operation over the 
driving schedule, and engine shutdown make a complete cold start test. 
Engine startup and operation over the first 505 seconds of the driving 
schedule complete the hot start test. The exhaust emissions are diluted 
with ambient air and a continuously proportional sample is collected for 
analysis during each phase. The composite samples collected in bags are 
analyzed for hydrocarbons, carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, and, 
optionally, for oxides of nitrogen. A parallel sample of the dilution 
air is similarly analyzed for hydrocarbon, carbon monoxide, carbon 
dioxide, and, optionally, for oxides of nitrogen. Methanol and 
formaldehyde samples (exhaust and dilution air) are collected and 
analyzed for methanol-fueled vehicles (a single dilution air 
formaldehyde sample covering the total time of the test may be collected 
in place of individual test phases).
    (b) [Reserved]
    (c) The vehicle speed, as measured from the dynamometer roll, shall 
be used. A speed vs. time recording, as evidence of dynamometer test 
validity, shall be supplied on request of the Administrator.
    (d) Practice runs over the prescribed driving schedule may be 
performed at test points, provided an emission sample is not taken, for 
the purpose of finding the minimum throttle action to maintain the 
proper speed-time relationship, or to permit sampling system 
adjustments.
    (e) The drive wheel tires must be inflated to the manufacturer's 
recommended pressure, 15 kPa (2.2 psi). The 
drive wheel tire pressure shall be reported with the test results.
    (f) If the dynamometer has not been operated during the two-hour 
period immediately preceding the test, it shall be warmed up for 15 
minutes by operating at 50 km/h (31 mph) using a nontest vehicle, or as 
recommended by the dynamometer manufacturer.
    (g) If the dynamometer horsepower must be adjusted manually, it 
shall be set within one hour prior to the exhaust emissions test phase. 
The test vehicle shall not be used to make this adjustment. Dynamometers 
using automatic control of preselectable power settings may be set 
anytime prior to the beginning of the emissions test.
    (h) The driving distance, as measured by counting the number of 
dynamometer roll revolutions, shall be determined for the transient cold 
start, stabilized cold start, and transient hot start phases of the 
test.
[54 FR 14551, Apr. 11, 1989]



Sec. 86.536-78  Engine starting and restarting.

    (a)(1) The engine shall be started according to the manufacturer's 
recommended starting procedures. The initial 20 second idle period shall 
begin when the engine starts.
    (2) Choke operation. (i) Vehicles equipped with automatic chokes 
shall be operated according to the instructions in the manufacturer's 
operating instructions or owner's manual including choke setting and 
``kick-down'' from cold fast idle. The transmission shall be placed in 
gear 15 seconds after the engine is started. If necessary, braking may 
be employed to keep the drive wheels from turning.
    (ii) Vehicles equipped with manual chokes shall be operated 
according to the manufacturer's operating instructions or owner's 
manual. Where times are provided in the instructions, the Administrator 
may specify the specific point for operation, within 15 seconds of the 
recommended time.
    (3) The operator may use the choke, throttle etc. where necessary to 
keep the engine running.
    (4) If the manufacturer's operating instructions or owner's manual 
do not specify a warm engine starting procedure, the engine (automatic 
and manual choke engines) shall be started by

[[Page 630]]

opening the throttle about half way and cranking the engine until it 
starts.
    (b) [Reserved]
    (c) If, during the cold start, the vehicle does not start after 10 
seconds of cranking, or ten cycles of the manual starting mechanism, 
cranking shall cease and the reason for failure to start determined. The 
revolution counter on the constant volume sampler shall be turned off 
and the sample solenoid valves placed in the ``standby'' position during 
this diagnostic period. In addition, either the CVS blower shall be 
turned off or the exhaust tube disconnected from the tailpipe during the 
diagnostic period.
    (1) If failure to start is an operational error, the vehicle shall 
be rescheduled for testing from a cold start. If failure to start is 
caused by vehicle malfunction, corrective action (following the 
unscheduled maintenance provisions) of less than 30 minutes duration may 
be taken and the test continued. The sampling system shall be 
reactivated at the same time cranking is started. When the engine 
starts, the driving schedule timing sequence shall begin. If failure to 
start is caused by vehicle malfunction and the vehicle cannot be 
started, the test shall be voided, the vehicle removed from the 
dynamometer, corrective action taken (following the unscheduled 
maintenance provisions), and the vehicle rescheduled for test. The 
reason for the malfunction (if determined) and the corrective action 
taken shall be reported.
    (2) If the vehicle does not start during the hot start after ten 
seconds of cranking, or ten cycles of the manual starting mechanism, 
cranking shall cease, the test shall be voided, the vehicle removed from 
the dynamometer, corrective action taken in accordance with Sec. 86.428 
or Sec. 86.429, and the vehicle rescheduled for test. The reason for the 
malfunction (if determined) and the corrective action taken shall be 
reported.
    (d) If the engine ``false starts'', the operator shall repeat the 
recommended starting procedure (such as resetting the choke, etc.)
    (e) Stalling. (1) If the engine stalls during an idle period, the 
engine shall be restarted immediately and the test continued. If the 
engine cannot be started soon enough to allow the vehicle to follow the 
next acceleration as prescribed, the driving schedule indicator shall be 
stopped. When the vehicle restarts, the driving schedule indicator shall 
be reactivated.
    (2) If the engine stalls during some operating mode other than idle, 
the driving schedule indicator shall be stopped, the vehicle shall then 
be restarted and accelerated to the speed required at that point in the 
driving schedule and the test continued. During acceleration to this 
point, shifting shall be performed in accordance with Sec. 86.528.
    (3) If the vehicle will not restart within one minute, the test 
shall be voided, the vehicle removed from the dynamometer, corrective 
action taken, and the vehicle rescheduled for test. The reason for the 
malfunction (if determined) and the corrective action taken shall be 
reported.



Sec. 86.537-90  Dynamometer test runs.

    (a) The vehicle shall be allowed to stand with the engine turned off 
(see Sec. 86.532 for required time). The vehicle shall be stored prior 
to the emission test in such a manner that precipitation (e.g., rain or 
dew) does not occur on the vehicle. The complete dynamometer test 
consists of a cold start drive of 12.0 km (7.5 mi), (10.9 km (6.8 mi) 
for Class I motorcycles) and simulates a hot start drive of 12.0 km (7.5 
mi), (10.9 km (6.8 mi) for Class I motorcycles). The vehicle is allowed 
to stand on the dynamometer during the 10-minute period between the cold 
and hot start tests. The cold start is divided into two periods. The 
first period, representing the cold start ``transient'' phase, 
terminates at the end of the deceleration which is scheduled to occur at 
505 seconds of the driving schedule. The second period, representing the 
``stabilized'' phase, consists of the remainder of the driving schedule 
including engine shutdown. The hot start test similarly consists of two 
periods. The period, representing the hot start ``transient'' phase, 
terminates at the same point in the driving schedule at the first point 
of the cold start test. The second period of the hot start test, 
``stabilized'' phase, is assumed to be identical to the second period of 
the

[[Page 631]]

cold start test. Therefore, the hot start test terminates after the 
first period (505 seconds) is run.
    (b) The following steps shall be taken for each test:
    (1) Place drive wheel of vehicle on dynamometer without starting 
engine.
    (2) Activate vehicle cooling fan.
    (3) For all vehicles, with the sample selector valves in the 
``standby'' position connect evacuated sample collection bags to the 
dilute exhaust and dilution air sample collection systems.
    (4) For methanol-fueled vehicles, with the sample selector valves in 
the ``standby'' position, insert fresh sample collection impingers into 
the methanol sample collection system, fresh impingers or a fresh 
cartridge into the formaldehyde sample collection system and fresh 
impingers (or a single cartridge for formaldehyde) into the dilution air 
sample collection systems for methanol and formaldehyde (background 
measurements of methanol and formaldehyde may be omitted and 
concentrations assumed to be zero for calculations in Sec. 86.544).
    (5) Start the CVS (if not already on), the sample pumps and the 
temperature recorder. (The heat exchanger of the constant volume 
sampler, if used, methanol-fueled vehicle hydrocarbon analyzer and 
sample lines should be preheated to their respective operating 
temperatures before the test begins.)
    (6) Adjust the sample flow rates to the desired flow rate and set 
the gas flow measuring devices to zero.
    (i) For gaseous bag samples (except hydrocarbon samples), the 
minimum flow rate is 0.17 cfm (0.08 l/s).
    (ii) For hydrocarbon samples, the minimum FID (or HFID in the case 
of methanol-fueled vehicles) flow rate is 0.066 cfm (0.031 l/s).
    (iii) For methanol samples, the flow rates shall be set such that 
the system meets the design criteria of Sec. 86.509. For samples in 
which the concentration in the primary impinger exceeds 0.5 mg/l, it is 
recommended that the mass of methanol collected in the secondary 
impinger not exceed ten percent of the total mass collected. For samples 
in which the concentration in the primary impinger does not exceed 0.5 
mg/l, secondary impingers do not need to be analyzed.
    (iv) For formaldehyde samples, the flow rates shall be set such that 
the system meets the design criteria of Sec. 86.509. For impinger 
samples in which the concentration of formaldehyde in the primary 
impinger exceeds 0.1 mg/l, it is recommended that the mass of 
formaldehyde collected in the secondary impinger not exceed ten percent 
of the total mass collected. For samples in which the concentration in 
the primary impinger does not exceed 0.1 mg/l, secondary impingers do 
not need to be analyzed.
    (7) Attach the flexible exhaust tube to the vehicle tailpipe(s).
    (8) Start the gas flow measuring device, position the sample 
selector valves to direct the sample flow into the ``transient'' exhaust 
sample bag, the ``transient'' methanol exhaust sample, the ``transient'' 
formaldehyde exhaust sample, the ``transient'' dilution air sample bag, 
the ``transient'' methanol dilution air sample and the ``transient'' 
formaldehyde dilution air sample, turn the key on, and start cranking 
the engine.
    (9) Fifteen seconds after the engine starts, place the transmission 
in gear.
    (10) Twenty seconds after the engine starts, begin the initial 
vehicle acceleration of the driving schedule.
    (11) Operate the vehicle according to the Urban Dynamometer Driving 
Schedule (Sec. 86.515).
    (12) At the end of the deceleration which is scheduled to occur at 
505 seconds, simultaneously switch the sample flows from the 
``transient'' bags and samples to ``stabilized'' bags and samples, 
switch off gas flow measuring device No. 1 and, start gas flow measuring 
device No. 2. Before the acceleration which is scheduled to occur at 510 
seconds, record the measured roll or shaft revolutions and reset the 
counter or switch to a second counter. As soon as possible, transfer the 
``stabilized'' exhaust and dilution air samples to the analytical system 
and process the samples according to Sec. 86.540, obtaining a stabilized 
reading of the exhaust bag sample on all analyzers within 20 minutes of 
the end of the sample collection phase of the test. Obtain methanol and 
formaldehyde sample analyses, if applicable, within 24 hours of the end 
of the sample period. (If it is not possible to

[[Page 632]]

perform analysis on the methanol and formaldehyde samples within 24 
hours, the samples should be stored in a dark cold (4-10  deg.C) 
environment until analysis. The samples should be analyzed within 
fourteen days.)
    (13) Turn the engine off 2 seconds after the end of the last 
deceleration (at 1,369 seconds).
    (14) Five seconds after the engine stops running, simultaneously 
turn off gas flow measuring device No. 2 and position the sample 
selector valves to the ``standby'' position (and open the valves 
isolating particulate filter No. 1, if applicable). Record the measured 
roll or shaft revolutions (both gas meter or flow measurement 
instrumentation readings) and re-set the counter. As soon as possible, 
transfer the ``stabilized'' exhaust and dilution air samples to the 
analytical system and process the samples according to Sec. 86.540, 
obtaining a stabilized reading of the exhaust bag sample on all 
analyzers within 20 minutes of the end of the sample collection phase of 
the test. Obtain methanol and formaldehyde sample analyses, if 
applicable, within 24 hours of the end of the sample period. (If it is 
not possible to perform analysis on the methanol and formaldehyde 
samples within 24 hours, the samples should be stored in a dark cold (4-
10  deg.C) environment until analysis. The samples should be analyzed 
within fourteen days.)
    (15) Immediately after the end of the sample period, turn off the 
cooling fan.
    (16) Turn off the CVS or disconnect the exhaust tube from the 
tailpipe(s) of the vehicle.
    (17) Repeat the steps in paragraph (b) (2) through (11) of this 
section for the hot start test, except only two evacuated sample bags, 
two methanol sample impingers, and two formaldehyde sample impingers are 
required. The step in paragraph (b)(8) of this section shall begin 
between 9 and 11 minutes after the end of the sample period for the cold 
start test.
    (18) At the end of the deceleration which is scheduled to occur at 
505 seconds, simultaneously turn off gas flow measuring device No. 1 and 
position the sample selector valve to the ``standby'' position. (Engine 
shutdown is not part of the hot start test sample period.) Record the 
measured roll or shaft revolutions.
    (19) As soon as possible, transfer the hot start ``transient'' 
exhaust and dilution air bag samples to the analytical system and 
process the samples according to Sec. 86.540 obtaining a stabilized 
reading of the bag exhaust sample on all analyzers within 20 minutes of 
the end of the sample collection phase of the test. Obtain methanol and 
formaldehyde sample analyses, if applicable, within 24 hours of the end 
of the sample period (if it is not possible to perform analysis on the 
methanol and formaldehyde samples within 24 hours, the samples should be 
stored in a dark, cold ( 0  deg.C) environment until 
analysis).
    (20) Disconnect the exhaust tube from the vehicle tailpipe(s) and 
remove the vehicle from dynamometer.
    (21) The CVS or CFV may be turned off, if desired.
    (22) Continuous monitoring of exhaust emissions will not normally be 
allowed. Specific written approval must be obtained from the 
Administrator for continuous monitoring of exhaust emissions.

Sec. 86.540-90  Exhaust sample analysis.

    The following sequence of operations shall be performed in 
conjunction with each series of measurements:
    (a) For CO, CO2, gasoline-fueled, natural gas-fueled, 
liquefied petroleum gas-fueled and methanol-fueled motorcycle HC and, if 
appropriate, NOX:
    (1) Zero the analyzers and obtain a stable zero reading. Recheck 
after tests.
    (2) Introduce span gases and set instrument gains. In order to avoid 
errors, span and calibrate at the same flow rates used to analyze the 
test sample. Span gases should have concentrations equal to 75 to 100 
percent of full scale. If gain has shifted significantly on the 
analyzers, check the calibrations. Show actual concentrations on chart.
    (3) Check zeros; repeat the procedure in paragraphs (a) (1) and (2) 
of this section if required.
    (4) Check flow rates and pressures.

[[Page 633]]

    (5) Measure HC, CO, CO2, and, if appropriate, 
NOX, concentrations of samples.
    (6) Check zero and span points. If difference is greater than 2 
percent of full scale, repeat the procedure in paragraphs (a) (1) 
through (5) of this section.
    (b) For CH3OH (methanol-fueled vehicles), introduce test 
samples into the gas chromatograph and measure the concentration. This 
concentration is CMS in the calculations.
    (c) For HCHO (methanol-fueled vehicles), introduce test samples into 
the high pressure liquid chromatograph and measure the concentration of 
formaldehyde as a dinitropheylhydrazine derivative in acetonitrile. This 
concentration is CFS in the calculations.

Then:
    (i) Vmix = [(0.0077934)(12,115)(99.05-9.851)(293.15)]/ 
[(101.325)(309.8)] = 78.651 m\3\ per test phase.
    (ii) H = [(6.211)(20.5)(3.382)]/[(99.05) - (3.382)(20.5/100)] = 
4.378 grams H2O per kg dry air.
    (iii) Kh = 1/[1 - 0.0329(4.378 - 10.71)] = 0 8276

    (x) NOxmass = (78.651)(1913)(38.01)(0.8276)  x  
10-\6\ = 4.733 grams per test phase.
    (xi) COconc = 306.68 - 8.08 (1 - 1/28.472) = 298.88 ppm.
    (xii) COmass = (78.651) (1164) (298.88)

    (2) For the ``stabilized'' portion of the cold-start test, assume 
that similar calculations resulted in HCmass = 7.184 grams 
per test phase; NOxmass = 2.154 grams per test phase;

similar calculations resulted in HCmass = 6.122 grams per 
test phase; NOxmass = 7.056 grams per test phase; 
COmass = 34.964 grams per test phase; and CO2mass 
= 480.93 grams per test phase. Dht = 5.660 km.
    (4) For a 1978 motorcycle with an engine displacement equal to or 
greater than 170 cc (10.4 cu. in):
    (i) HCwm = 0.43 [(11.114 + 7.184)/(5.650 + 6.070)] + 0.57 
[(6.122 + 7.184)/(5.660 + 6.070)] = 1.318 grams per vehicle kilometer.
    (ii) NOxwm = 0.43 [(4.733 + 2.154)/(5.650 + 6.070)] + 
0.57 [(7.056 + 2.154)/(5.660 + 6.070)] = 0.700 gram per vehicle

    (iii) COwm = 0.43 [(27.362 + 64.541)/(5.650 + 6.070)] + 
0.57 [(34.964 + 64.541)/(5.660 + 6.070)] = 8.207 grams per vehicle

Sec. 86.603-88  Test orders.

    (a) The Administrator will require any testing under this subpart by 
means of a test order addressed to the manufacturer.
    (b) The test order will be signed by the Assistant Administrator for 
Air and Radiation or his designee. The test order will be delivered in 
person by an EPA Enforcement Officer to a company representative or sent 
by registered mail, return receipt requested, to the manufacturer's 
representative who signs the Application for Certification submitted by 
the manufacturer pursuant to the requirements of the applicable sections 
of subpart A of this part. Upon receipt of a test order, the 
manufacturer shall comply with all of the provisions of this subpart and 
instructions in the test order.
    (c)(1) The test order will specify the vehicle configuration 
selected for testing, the time and location at which vehicles must be 
selected, and the procedure by which vehicles of the specified 
configuration must be selected. The test order may specify the number of 
vehicles to be selected per day and may include alternative 
configurations (primary, secondary, etc.) to be selected for testing in 
the event that vehicles of the first specified configuration are not 
available for testing because those vehicles are not being manufactured 
at the specified assembly plant, not being manufactured during the 
specified time, or not being stored at the specified assembly plant or 
associated storage facility. If total production of the specified 
vehicle configuration is less than the number specified in the test 
order, the manufacturer will select the actual number of vehicles 
produced per day. If the first specified configuration is not being 
manufactured at a rate of at least four vehicles per day over the 
expected duration of the audit, the Assistant Administrator for Air and 
Radiation or his designated representative may select vehicles of a 
primary alternate configuration for testing in lieu of the first 
specified configuration. Likewise, vehicles of a secondary alternate 
configuration may be selected in lieu of vehicles of the first specified 
configuration or primary alternate configuration. In addition, the test 
order may include other directions or information essential to the 
administration of the required testing.
    (2) The following instructions are applicable to each test order 
issued under this subpart:
    (i) The manufacturer shall make the following documents available to 
an EPA Enforcement Officer upon request:
    (A) A properly filed and current Application for Certification 
following the format prescribed by the EPA for the appropriate model 
year; and
    (B) A copy of the shop manual, dealer service bulletins, and pre-
delivery inspection procedures for the configuration being tested.
    (ii) Only one mechanic at a time per vehicle shall make authorized 
checks, adjustments, or repairs, unless a particular check, adjustment, 
or repair requires a second mechanic as indicated in the shop manual or 
dealer service bulletins.
    (iii) A mechanic shall not perform any check, adjustment, or repair 
without an Enforcement Officer present unless otherwise authorized.
    (iv) The manufacturer shall utilize only those tools and test 
equipment utilized by its dealers when performing authorized checks, 
adjustments, or repairs.
    (d) A manufacturer may indicate preferred assembly plants for the 
various

[[Page 641]]

engine families produced by the manufacturer for selection of vehicles 
in response to a test order. This shall be accomplished by submitting a 
list of engine families and the corresponding assembly plants from which 
the manufacturer desires to have vehicles selected to the Administrator. 
In order that a manufacturer's preferred location for issuance of a test 
order for a configuration of a particular engine family be considered, 
the list must be submitted prior to issuance of the test order. 
Notwithstanding the fact that a manufacturer has submitted the above 
list, the Administrator may, upon making the determination that evidence 
exists indicating noncompliance at other than the manufacturer's 
preferred plant, order testing at such other plant where vehicles of the 
configuration specified in the test order are assembled.
    (e) During a given model year, the Administrator shall not issue to 
a manufacturer more SEA test orders than an annual limit determined by 
dividing the projected sales bound for the U.S. market for that model 
year, as made by the manufacturer in its report submitted under 
paragraph (a)(2) of Sec. 600.207-80 of the Automobile Fuel Economy 
Regulations, by 300,000 and rounding to the nearest whole number, unless 
the projected sales are less than 150,000, in which case the annual 
limit is one. However, the annual limit for SEA test orders will be 
recalculated if a manufacturer submits to EPA in writing prior to or 
during the model year a sales projection update.
    (1) Any SEA test order for which the configuration fails in 
accordance with Sec. 86.610 or for which testing is not completed does 
not count against the annual limit.
    (2) When the annual limit has been met, the Administrator may issue 
additional test orders for those configurations for which evidence 
exists indicating noncompliance. An SEA test order issued on this basis 
will include a statement as to the reason for its issuance.

Sec. 86.607-84  Sample selection.

    (a) Vehicles comprising a test sample which are required to be 
tested, pursuant to a test order issued in accordance with this subpart, 
will be selected at the location and in the manner specified in the test 
order. If a manufacturer determines that the test vehicles cannot be 
selected in the manner specified in the test order, an alternative 
selection procedure may be employed: Provided, That the manufacturer 
requests approval of the alternative procedure in advance of the start 
of test sample selection and that the Administrator approves the 
procedure. Special order vehicles are exempt from sample selection 
unless a test sample cannot be completed otherwise.
    (b) The manufacturer shall have assembled the test vehicles of the 
configuration selected for testing using its normal mass production 
processes for vehicles to be distributed into commerce. During the 
audit, the manufacturer shall inform the Administrator of any change(s) 
implemented in its production processes, including quality control, 
which may be reasonably expected to affect the emissions of the vehicles 
selected, between the time the manufacturer received the test order and 
the time the manufacturer finished selecting test vehicles.
    (c) No quality control, testing, or assembly procedures will be used 
on the completed test vehicles or any portion thereof, including parts 
and subassemblies, that has not been or will not be used during the 
production and assembly of all other vehicles of that configuration.
    (d) The test order may specify that EPA Enforcement Officers, rather 
than the manufacturer, will select the test vehicles according to the 
method described in paragraph (a) of this section.
    (e) The order in which test vehicles are selected determines the 
order in

[[Page 646]]

which test results are to be used in applying the sampling plan in 
accordance with Sec. 86.610.
    (f) The manufacturer shall keep on hand all untested vehicles, if 
any, comprising the test sample until a pass or fail decision is reached 
in accordance with paragraph (d) of Sec. 86.610. The manufacturer may 
ship any tested vehicle which has not failed in accordance with 
paragraph (a) of Sec. 86.610. However, once a manufacturer ships any 
vehicle from the test sample, it relinquishes the prerogative to conduct 
retests provided in paragraph (i) of Sec. 86.608.

Sec. 86.608-88  Test procedures.

    (a) The prescribed test procedures are contained in subpart B of 
this part 86. For purposes of Selective Enforcement Audit testing, the 
manufacturer shall not perform any of the test procedures in subpart B 
of this part relating to evaporative emission testing, except as 
specified in paragraph (a)(2) of this section.
    (1) The Administrator may, on the basis of a written application by 
a manufacturer, prescribe test procedures other than those in subpart B 
of this part for any motor vehicle which he determines is not 
susceptible to satisfactory testing using the procedures in subpart B of 
this part.
    (2) The following exceptions to the test procedures in subpart B of 
this part are applicable to Selective Enforcement Audit testing:
    (i) The manufacturer may use test fuel meeting the specifications of 
paragraph (a)(1) or (b)(2) of Sec. 86.113-82 for mileage accumulation. 
Otherwise, the manufacturer may use fuels other than those specified in 
this section only with advance approval of the Administrator.
    (ii) The manufacturer may measure the temperature of the test fuel 
at other than the approximate mid-volume of the fuel tank, as specified 
in Sec. 86.131(a), and may drain the test fuel from other than the 
lowest point of the tank, as specified in Sec. 86.131(b), provided an 
equivalent method is used. Equivalency documentation shall be maintained 
by the manufacturer and shall be made available to the Administrator 
upon request.
    (iii) The manufacturer may perform additional preconditioning on SEA 
test vehicles other than the preconditioning specified in Sec. 86.132 
only if the additional preconditioning had been performed on 
certification test vehicles of the same configuration.
    (iv) The manufacturer shall perform the heat build procedure 11 to 
34 hours following vehicle preconditioning rather than according to the 
time period specified in paragraph Sec. 86.133(a). All references in 
Sec. 86.133 to an evaporative emission enclosure (SHED) and analyzing 
for HC during the heat build can be ignored.
    (v) The manufacturer may substitute slave tires for the drive wheel 
tires on the vehicle as specified in paragraph Sec. 86.135(e): Provided, 
That the slave tires are the same size.
    (vi) The cold start exhaust emission test described in Sec. 86.137 
shall follow the heat build procedure described in Sec. 86.133 by not 
more than one hour.
    (vii) In performing exhaust sample analysis under Sec. 86.140.
    (A) When testing diesel vehicles, the manufacturer shall allow a 
minimum of 20 minutes warm-up for the HC analyzer, and a minimum of 2 
hours warm-up for the CO, CO2 and NOX analyzers. 
(Power is normally left on infrared and chemiluminescent analyzers. When 
not in use, the chopper motors of the infrared analyzers are turned off 
and the phototube high voltage supply to the chemiluminescent analyzers 
is placed in the standby position.)
    (B) The manufacturer shall exercise care to prevent moisture from 
condensing in the sample collection bags.
    (viii) The manufacturer need not comply with Sec. 86.142, since the 
records required therein are provided under other provisions of subpart 
G of this part.
    (ix) In addition to the requirements of subpart B of this part, the 
manufacturer shall prepare gasoline-fueled vehicles as follows prior to 
exhaust emission testing:
    (A) The manufacturer shall inspect the fuel system to insure the 
absence of any leaks of liquid or vapor to the atmosphere by applying a 
pressure of

[[Page 647]]

14.50.5 inches of water to the fuel system, allowing the 
pressure to stabilize, and isolating the fuel system from the pressure 
source. Following isolation of the fuel system, pressure must not drop 
more than 2.0 inches of water in 5 minutes. If required, the 
manufacturer shall perform corrective action in accordance with 
paragraph Sec. 86.608(d) and report this action in accordance with 
paragraph Sec. 86.609(d).
    (B) When performing this pressure check, the manufacturer shall 
exercise care to neither purge nor load the evaporative emission control 
system.
    (C) The manufacturer shall not modify the test vehicle's evaporative 
emission control system by component addition, deletion, or 
substitution, except to comply with paragraph (a)(2)(ii) of this section 
if approved in advance by the Administrator.
    (b)(1) The manufacturer shall not adjust, repair, prepare, or modify 
the vehicles selected for testing and shall not perform any emission 
tests on vehicles selected for testing pursuant to the test order unless 
this adjustment, repair, preparation, modification, and/or tests are 
documented in the manufacturer's vehicle assembly and inspection 
procedures and are actually performed or unless these adjustments and/or 
tests are required or permitted under this subpart or are approved in 
advance by the Administrator.
    (2) For 1981 and later model years the Administrator may adjust or 
cause to be adjusted any engine or vehicle parameter which the 
Administrator has determined to be subject to adjustment for new vehicle 
compliance testing (e.g., for certification or Selective Enforcement 
Audit testing) in accordance with Sec. 86.081-22(c)(1), to any setting 
within the physically adjustable range of that parameter, as determined 
by the Administrator in accordance with Sec. 86.081-22(e)(3)(ii), prior 
to the performance of any tests. However, if the idle speed parameter is 
one which the Administrator has determined to be subject to adjustment, 
the Administrator shall not adjust it to a setting which causes a lower 
engine idle speed than will be possible within the physically adjustable 
range of the idle speed parameter on the vehicle when it has accumulated 
4,000 miles, all other parameters being adjusted identically for the 
purpose of comparison. The Administrator, in making or specifying such 
adjustments, will consider the effect of the deviation from the 
manufacturer's recommended setting on emissions performance 
characteristics as well as the likelihood that similar settings will 
occur on in-use light-duty vehicles or light-duty trucks. In determining 
likelihood, the Administrator will consider factors such as, but not 
limited to, the effect of the adjustment on vehicle performance 
characteristics and surveillance information from similar in-use 
vehicles.
    (c) Prior to performing exhaust emission testing on an SEA test 
vehicle, the manufacturer may accumulate on each vehicle a number of 
miles equal to the greater of 4,000 miles, or the number of miles the 
manufacturer accumulated during certification on the emission-data 
vehicle corresponding to the configuration specified in the test order.
    (1) Mileage accumulation must be performed in any manner using good 
engineering judgment to obtain emission results representative of normal 
production vehicles. This mileage accumulation must be consistent with 
the new vehicle break-in instructions contained in the applicable 
vehicle owner's manual, if any.
    (2) The manufacturer shall accumulate mileage at a minimum rate of 
300 miles per vehicle during each 24 hour period, unless otherwise 
provided by the Administrator.
    (i) The first 24 hour period for mileage accumulation shall begin as 
soon as authorized vehicle checks, inspections and preparations are 
completed on each vehicle.
    (ii) The minimum mileage accumulation rate does not apply on 
weekends or holidays.
    (iii) If the manufacturer's mileage accumulation target is less than 
the minimum rate specified (300 miles per day), then the minimum daily 
accumulation rate shall be equal to the manufacturer's mileage 
accumulation target.
    (3) Mileage accumulation shall be completed on a sufficient number 
of test vehicles during consecutive 24 hour periods to assure that the 
number

[[Page 648]]

of vehicles tested per day fulfills the requirements of paragraph (g) of 
this section.
    (d) The manufacturer shall not perform any maintenance on test 
vehicles after selection for testing nor shall the Administrator allow 
deletion of any test vehicle from the test sequence, unless requested by 
the manufacturer and approved by the Administrator before any test 
vehicle maintenance or deletion.
    (e) The manufacturer will be allowed 24 hours to ship test vehicles 
from the assembly plant or storage facility to the test facility if the 
test facility is not located at the plant or storage facility or in 
close proximity to the plant or storage facility: Except, That the 
Administrator may approve more time based upon a request by the 
manufacturer accompanied by a satisfactory justification.
    (f) If a vehicle cannot complete the mileage accumulation or 
emission tests because of vehicle malfunction, the manufacturer may 
request the Administrator to authorize the repair of that vehicle or its 
deletion from the test sequence.
    (g) Whenever the manufacturer conducts testing pursuant to a test 
order issued under this subpart, the manufacturer shall notify the 
Administrator within one working day of receipt of the test order, which 
test facility will be used to comply with the test order and the number 
of available test cells at that facility. If no test cells are available 
at the desired facility, the manufacturer must provide alternate testing 
capability satisfactory to the Administrator. The manufacturer shall 
complete emission testing on a minimum of four vehicles per 24 hour 
period including voided tests for each available test cell at his 
testing facility: Except, That the Administrator may approve a longer 
period based upon a request by the manufacturer accompanied by 
satisfactory justification.
    (h) The manufacturer shall perform test vehicle selection, 
preparation, mileage accumulation, shipping, and testing in such a 
manner as to assure that the audit is performed in an expeditious 
manner.
    (i) The manufacturer may retest any test vehicle after a fail 
decision has been reached in accordance with paragraph (d) of 
Sec. 86.610 based on the first test on each vehicle; except, that the 
Administrator may approve retesting at other times during the audit 
based upon a request by the manufacturer accompanied by a satisfactory 
justification. The manufacturer may test each vehicle a total of three 
times. The manufacturer shall test each vehicle the same number of 
times. The manufacturer may accumulate additional mileage on test 
vehicles before conducting retests, subject to the provisions of 
paragraph (c) of this section.

engine idle speed than will be possible within the physically adjustable 
range of the idle speed parameter on the vehicle when it has accumulated 
4,000 miles, all other parameters being adjusted identically for the 
purpose of comparison. The Administrator, in making or specifying such 
adjustments, will consider the effect of the deviation from the 
manufacturer's recommended setting on emissions performance 
characteristics as well as the likelihood that similar settings will 
occur on in-use light-duty vehicles or light-duty trucks. In determining 
likelihood, the Administrator will consider factors such as, but not

    (2) The manufacturer shall accumulate mileage at a minimum rate of 
300 miles per vehicle during each 24 hour period, unless otherwise 
provided by the Administrator.
    (i) The first 24 hour period for mileage accumulation shall begin as 
soon as authorized vehicle checks, inspections and preparations are 
completed on each vehicle.
    (ii) The minimum mileage accumulation rate does not apply on 
weekends or holidays.
    (iii) If the manufacturer's mileage accumulation target is less than 
the minimum rate specified (300 miles per day), then the minimum daily 
accumulation rate shall be equal to the manufacturer's mileage 
accumulation target.
    (3) Mileage accumulation shall be completed on a sufficient number

Sec. 86.608-98  Test procedures.

    (a) The prescribed test procedures are the Federal Test Procedure, 
as described in subpart B and/or subpart R of this part, whichever is 
applicable, the cold temperature CO test procedure as described in 
subpart C of this part, and the Certification Short Test procedure as 
described in subpart O of this part. Where the manufacturer conducts 
testing based on the requirements specified in Chapter 1 or Chapter 2 of 
the California Regulatory Requirements Applicable to the National Low 
Emission Vehicle Program (October, 1996), the prescribed test procedures 
are the procedures cited in the previous sentence, or substantially 
similar procedures, as determined by the Administrator. The California 
Regulatory Requirements Applicable to the National Low Emission Vehicle 
Program are incorporated by reference (see Sec. 86.1). For purposes of 
Selective Enforcement Audit testing, the manufacturer shall not be 
required to perform any of the test procedures in subpart B of this part 
relating to evaporative emission testing, other than refueling emissions 
testing, except as specified in paragraph (a)(2) of this section.
    (1) The Administrator may omit any of the testing procedures 
described in paragraph (a) of this section and may select and prescribe 
the sequence of any CSTs. Further, the Administrator may, on the basis 
of a written application by a manufacturer, approve optional test 
procedures other than those in subparts B, C, and O of this part for any 
motor vehicle which is not susceptible to satisfactory testing using the 
procedures in subparts B, C, and O of this part.
    (2) The following exceptions to the test procedures in subpart B 
and/or subpart R of this part are applicable to Selective Enforcement 
Audit testing:
    (i) For mileage accumulation, the manufacturer may use test fuel 
meeting the specifications for mileage and service accumulation fuels of 
Sec. 86.113, or, for vehicles certified to the National LEV standards, 
the specifications of Sec. 86.1771. Otherwise, the manufacturer may use 
fuels other than those specified in this section only with the advance 
approval of the Administrator.
    (ii) The manufacturer may measure the temperature of the test fuel 
at other than the approximate mid-volume of the fuel tank, as specified 
in Sec. 86.131-96(a) with only a single temperature sensor, and may 
drain the test fuel from other than the lowest point of the tank, as 
specified in Sec. 86.131-96(b) and Sec. 86.152-98(a), provided an 
equivalent method is used. Equivalency documentation shall be maintained 
by the manufacturers and shall be made available to the Administrator 
upon request. Additionally, for any test vehicle that has remained under 
laboratory ambient temperature conditions for at least 6 hours prior to 
testing, the vehicle soak described in Sec. 86.132-96(c) may be 
eliminated upon approval of the Administrator. In such cases, the 
vehicle shall be operated through the preconditioning drive described in 
Sec. 86.132-96(c) immediately following the fuel drain and fill 
procedure described in Sec. 86.132-96(b).
    (iii) The manufacturer may perform additional preconditioning on 
Selective Enforcement Audit test vehicles other than the preconditioning 
specified in Sec. 86.132, or Sec. 86.1773, for vehicles certified to the 
National LEV standards only if the additional preconditioning was 
performed on certification test vehicles of the same configuration.

[[Page 654]]

    (iv) If the Administrator elects to use the evaporative/refueling 
canister preconditioning procedure described in Sec. 86.132-96(k), the 
manufacturer shall perform the heat build procedure 11 to 34 hours 
following vehicle preconditioning rather than according to the time 
period specified in Sec. 86.133-90(a). All references to an evaporative 
emission enclosure and analyzing for HC during the heat build can be 
ignored.
    (v) The manufacturer may substitute slave tires for the drive wheel 
tires on the vehicle as specified in paragraph Sec. 86.135-90(e): 
Provided, that the slave tires are the same size.
    (vi) If the Administrator elects to use the evaporative/refueling 
canister preconditioning procedure described in Sec. 86.132-96(k), the 
cold start exhaust emission test described in Sec. 86.137-96 shall 
follow the heat build procedure described in Sec. 86.133-90 by not more 
than one hour.
    (vii) In performing exhaust sample analysis under Sec. 86.140-94.
    (A) When testing diesel vehicles, or methanol-fueled Otto-cycle 
vehicles, the manufacturer shall allow a minimum of 20 minutes warm-up 
for the HC analyzer, and for diesel vehicles, a minimum of two hours 
warm-up for the CO, CO2, and NOX analyzers. (Power 
is normally left on infrared and chemiluminescent analyzers. When not in 
use, the chopper motors of the infrared analyzers are turned off and the 
phototube high voltage supply to the chemiluminescent analyzers is 
placed in the standby position.)
    (B) The manufacturer shall exercise care to prevent moisture from 
condensing in the sample collection bags.
    (viii) The manufacturer need not comply with Sec. 86.142, 
Sec. 86.155, or Sec. 86.1775, since the records required therein are 
provided under other provisions of this subpart G.
    (ix) If a manufacturer elects to perform the background 
determination procedure described in paragraph (a)(2)(xi) of this 
section in addition to performing the refueling emissions test 
procedure, the elapsed time between the initial and final FID readings 
shall be recorded, rounded to the nearest second rather than minute as 
described in Sec. 86.154-98(e)(8). In addition, the vehicle soak 
described in Sec. 86.153-98(e) shall be conducted with the windows and 
luggage compartment of the vehicle open.
    (x) The Administrator may elect to perform a seal test, described in 
Sec. 86.153-98(b), of both integrated and non-integrated systems instead 
of the full refueling test. When testing non-integrated systems, an 
manufacturer may conduct the canister purge described in Sec. 86.153-
98(b)(1) directly following the preconditioning drive described in 
Sec. 86.132-96(e) or directly following the exhaust emissions test 
described in Sec. 86.137-96.
    (xi) In addition to the refueling test, a manufacturer may elect to 
perform the following background emissions determination immediately 
prior to the refueling measurement procedure described in Sec. 86.154-
98, provided EPA is notified of this decision prior to the start of 
testing in an SEA.
    (A) The SHED shall be purged for several minutes immediately prior 
to the background determination. Warning: If at any time the 
concentration of hydrocarbons, of methanol, or of methanol and 
hydrocarbons exceeds 15,000 ppm C, the enclosure should be immediately 
purged. This concentration provides a 4:1 safety factor against the lean 
flammability limit.
    (B) The FID (or HFID) hydrocarbon analyzer shall be zeroed and 
spanned immediately prior to the background determination. If not 
already on, the enclosure mixing fan and the spilled fuel mixing blower 
shall be turned on at this time.
    (C) Place the vehicle in the SHED. The ambient temperature level 
encountered by the test vehicle during the entire background emissions 
determination shall be 80  deg.F 3  deg.F. The windows and 
luggage compartment of the vehicle must be open and the gas cap must be 
secured.
    (D) Seal the SHED. Immediately analyze the ambient concentration of 
hydrocarbons in the SHED and record. This is the initial background 
hydrocarbon concentration.
    (E) Soak the vehicle for ten minutes 1 minute.
    (F) The FID (or HFID) hydrocarbon analyzer shall be zeroed and 
spanned

[[Page 655]]

immediately prior to the end of the background determination.
    (G) Analyze the ambient concentration of hydrocarbons in the SHED 
and record. This is the final background hydrocarbon concentration.
    (H) The total hydrocarbon mass emitted during the background 
determination is calculated according to Sec. 86.156-98. To obtain a 
per-minute background emission rate, divide the total hydrocarbon mass 
calculated in this paragraph by the duration of the soak, rounded to the 
nearest second, described in paragraph (a)(2)(xi)(G) of this section.
    (I) The background emission rate is multiplied by the duration of 
the refueling measurement obtained in paragraph (a)(2)(ix) of this 
section. This number is then subtracted from the total grams of 
emissions calculated for the refueling test according to Sec. 86.156-
98(a) to obtain the adjusted value for total refueling emissions. The 
final results for comparison with the refueling emission standard shall 
be computed by dividing the adjusted value for total refueling mass 
emissions by the total gallons of fuel dispensed in the refueling test 
as described in Sec. 86.156-98(b).
    (xii) In addition to the requirements of subpart B of this part, the 
manufacturer shall prepare gasoline-fueled and methanol-fueled vehicles 
as follows prior to emission testing:
    (A) The manufacturer shall inspect the fuel system to ensure the 
absence of any leaks of liquid or vapor to the atmosphere by applying a 
pressure of 14.50.5 inches of water (3.60.1 Kpa) 
to the fuel system allowing the pressure to stabilize and isolating the 
fuel system from the pressure source. Following isolation of the fuel 
system, pressure must not drop more than 2.0 inches of water (0.5 Kpa) 
in five minutes. If required, the manufacturer shall perform corrective 
action in accordance with paragraph (d) of this section and report this 
action in accordance with Sec. 86.609-98(d).
    (B) When performing this pressure check, the manufacturer shall 
exercise care to neither purge nor load the evaporative or refueling 
emission control systems.
    (C) The manufacturer may not modify the test vehicle's evaporative 
or refueling emission control systems by component addition, deletion, 
or substitution, except to comply with paragraph (a)(2)(ii) of this 
section if approved in advance by the Administrator.
    (3) The following exceptions to the test procedures in subpart C of 
this part are applicable to Selective Enforcement Audit testing:
    (i) The manufacturer may measure the temperature of the test fuel at 
other than the approximate mid-volume of the fuel tank, as specified in 
Sec. 86.131-90(a), and may drain the test fuel from other than the 
lowest point of the fuel tank as specified in Sec. 86.131-90(b), 
provided an equivalent method is used. Equivalency documentation shall 
be maintained by the manufacturer and shall be made available to the 
Administrator upon request.
    (ii) In performing exhaust sample analysis under Sec. 86.140-94, the 
manufacturer shall exercise care to prevent moisture from condensing in 
the sample collection bags.
    (iii) The manufacturer need not comply with Sec. 86.142-90 since the 
records required therein are provided under other provisions of this 
subpart G.
    (iv) In addition to the requirements of subpart C of this part, the 
manufacturer shall prepare gasoline-fueled vehicles as follows prior to 
exhaust emission testing:
    (A) The manufacturer shall inspect the fuel system to ensure the 
absence of any leaks of liquid or vapor to the atmosphere by applying a 
pressure of 14.50.5 inches of water (3.60.1 Kpa) 
to the fuel system allowing the pressure to stabilize and isolating the 
fuel system from the pressure source. Following isolation of the fuel 
system, pressure must not drop more than 2.0 inches of water (0.5 Kpa) 
in five minutes. If required, the manufacturer shall perform corrective 
action in accordance with paragraph (d) of this section and report this 
action in accordance with Sec. 86.609-98(d).
    (B) When performing this pressure check, the manufacturer shall 
exercise care to neither purge nor load the evaporative or refueling 
emission control system.

[[Page 656]]

    (C) The manufacturer shall not modify the test vehicle's evaporative 
or refueling emission control system by component addition, deletion, or 
substitution, except if approved in advance by the Administrator, to 
comply with paragraph (a)(3)(i) of this section.
    (4) The exceptions to the test procedures in subpart O of this part 
applicable to Selective Enforcement Audit testing are listed in 
paragraphs (a)(4) (i) and (ii) of this section.
    (i) The manufacturer need not comply with Sec. 86.1442, since the 
records required therein are provided under provisions of this subpart 
G.
    (ii) In addition to the requirements of subpart O of this part, the 
manufacturer must prepare vehicles as in paragraphs (a)(4)(ii) (A) 
through (C) of this section prior to exhaust emission testing.
    (A) The manufacturer must inspect the fuel system to insure the 
absence of any leaks of liquid or vapor to the atmosphere by applying a 
pressure of 14.50.5 inches of water (3.60.1 Kpa) 
to the fuel system, allowing the pressure to stabilize, and isolating 
the fuel system from the pressure source. Pressure must not drop more 
than 2.0 inches of water (0.5 Kpa) in five minutes. If required, the 
manufacturer performs corrective action in accordance with paragraph (d) 
of this section and must report this action in accordance with 
Sec. 86.609-98(d).
    (B) When performing this pressure check, the manufacturer must 
exercise care to neither purge nor load the evaporative or refueling 
emission control system.
    (C) The manufacturer may not modify the test vehicle's evaporative 
or refueling emission control system by component addition, deletion, or 
substitution.
    (b)(1) The manufacturer shall not adjust, repair, prepare, or modify 
the vehicles selected for testing and shall not perform any emission 
tests on vehicles selected for testing pursuant to the test order unless 
this adjustment repair, preparation, modification, and/or tests are 
documented in the manufacturer's vehicle assembly and inspection 
procedures and are actually performed or unless these adjustments and/or 
tests are required or permitted under this subpart or are approved in 
advance by the Administrator.
    (2) For 1981 and later model years the Administrator may adjust or 
cause to be adjusted any engine or vehicle parameter which the 
Administrator has determined to be subject to adjustment for new vehicle 
compliance testing (e.g., for certification or Selective Enforcement 
Audit testing) in accordance with Sec. 86.081-22(c)(1), to any setting 
within the physically adjustable range of that parameter, as determined 
by the Administrator in accordance with Sec. 86.081-22(e)(3)(ii), prior 
to the performance of any tests. However, if the idle speed parameter is 
one which the Administrator has determined to be subject to adjustment, 
the Administrator shall not adjust it to a setting which causes a lower 
engine idle speed than will be possible within the physically adjustable 
range of the idle speed parameter on the vehicle when it has accumulated 
4,000 miles, all other parameters being adjusted identically for the 
purpose of comparison. The Administrator, in making or specifying such 
adjustments, will consider the effect of the deviation from the 
manufacturer's recommended setting on emissions performance 
characteristics as well as the likelihood that similar settings will 
occur on in-use light-duty vehicles or light-duty trucks. In determining 
likelihood, the Administrator will consider factors such as, but not 
limited to, the effect of the adjustment on vehicle performance 
characteristics and surveillance information from similar in-use 
vehicles.
    (c) Prior to performing emission testing pursuant to paragraph (a) 
of this section on an SEA test vehicle, the manufacturer may accumulate 
on each vehicle a number of miles equal to the greater of 4,000 miles, 
or the number of miles the manufacturer accumulated during certification 
on the emission-data vehicle corresponding to the configuration 
specified in the test order.
    (1) Mileage accumulation must be performed in any manner using good 
engineering judgment to obtain emission results representative of normal 
production vehicles. This mileage accumulation must be consistent with 
the

[[Page 657]]

new vehicle break-in instructions contained in the applicable vehicle 
owner's manual, if any.
    (2) The manufacturer shall accumulate mileage at a minimum rate of 
300 miles per vehicle during each 24-hour period, unless otherwise 
provided by the Administrator.
    (i) The first 24-hour period for mileage accumulation shall begin as 
soon as authorized vehicle checks, inspections and preparations are 
completed on each vehicle.
    (ii) The minimum mileage accumulation rate does not apply on 
weekends or holidays.
    (iii) If the manufacturer's mileage accumulation target is less than 
the minimum rate specified (300 miles per day), then the minimum daily 
accumulation rate shall be equal to the manufacturer's mileage 
accumulation target.
    (3) Mileage accumulation shall be completed on a sufficient number 
of test vehicles during consecutive 24-hour periods to assure that the 
number of vehicles tested per day fulfills the requirements of paragraph 
(g) of this section.
    (d) The manufacturer shall not perform any maintenance on test 
vehicles after selection for testing nor shall the Administrator allow 
deletion of any test vehicle from the test sequence, unless requested by 
the manufacturer and approved by the Administrator before any test 
vehicle maintenance of deletion.
    (e) The manufacturer will be allowed 24 hours to ship test vehicles 
from the assembly plant or storage facility to the test facility if the 
test facility is not located at the plant or storage facility or in 
close proximity to the plant or storage facility: Except, that the 
Administrator may approve more time based upon a request by the 
manufacturer accompanied by a satisfactory justification.
    (f) If a vehicle cannot complete the mileage accumulation or 
emission tests because of vehicle malfunction, the manufacturer may 
request the Administrator to authorize the repair of that vehicle or its 
deletion from the test sequence.
    (g) Whenever the manufacturer conducts testing pursuant to a test 
order issued under this subpart, the manufacturer shall notify the 
Administrator within one working day of receipt of the test order, which 
test facility will be used to comply with the test order and the number 
of available test cells at that facility. If no test cells are available 
at the desired facility, the manufacturer must provide alternate testing 
capability satisfactory to the Administrator.
    (1) The manufacturer shall perform a combination of tests pursuant 
to paragraph (a) of this section so that a minimum of four tests are 
performed per 24 hour period, including voided tests, for each available 
test cell.
    (2) The Administrator may approve a longer period based upon a 
request by a manufacturer accompanied by satisfactory justification.
    (h) The manufacturer shall perform test vehicle selection, 
preparation, mileage accumulation, shipping, and testing in such a 
manner as to assure that the audit is performed in an expeditious 
manner.
    (i) The manufacturer may retest any test vehicle after a fail 
decision has been reached in accordance with Sec. 86.610-98(d) based on 
the first test on each vehicle; except that the Administrator may 
approve retests at other times during the audit based upon a request by 
the manufacturer accompanied by a satisfactory justification. The 
manufacturer may test each vehicle a total of three times. The 
manufacturer shall test each vehicle the same number of times. The 
manufacturer may accumulate additional mileage on test vehicles before 
conducting retests, subject to the provisions of paragraph (c) of this 
section.

Sec. 86.609-84  Calculation and reporting of test results.

    (a) Initial test results are calculated following the Federal Test 
Procedure specified in Sec. 86.608(a). Round the initial test results to 
the number of decimal places contained in the applicable emission 
standard, expressed to one additional significant figure. Rounding shall 
be done in accordance with ASTM E 29-90, Standard Practice for Using

[[Page 658]]

Significant Digits in Test Data to Determine Conformance with 
Specifications. This procedure has been incorporated by reference (see 
Sec. 86.1).
    (b) Final test results for each test vehicle shall be calculated by 
summing the initial test results derived in paragraph (a) of this 
section for each test vehicle, dividing by the number of tests conducted 
on the vehicle, and rounding to the same number of decimal places 
contained in the applicable emission standard expressed to one 
additional significant figure. Rounding shall be done in accordance with 
ASTM E 29-90, Standard Practice for Using Significant Digits in Test 
Data to Determine Conformance with Specifications. This procedure has 
been incorporated by reference (see Sec. 86.1).
    (c)(1) The final deteriorated test results for each test vehicle 
shall be calculated by multiplying the final test results by the 
appropriate deterioration factor derived for the certification process 
for the engine family and model year to which the selected configuration 
belongs, and rounded to two significant figures. Rounding shall be done 
in accordance with ASTM E 29-90, Standard Practice for Using Significant 
Digits in Test Data to Determine Conformance with Specifications. This 
procedure has been incorporated by reference (see Sec. 86.1). For the 
purposes of this paragraph, if a deterioration factor as computed during 
the certification process is less than one, that deterioration factor 
shall be one.
    (2) There are no deterioration factors for light-duty vehicles 
tested in accordance with Sec. 86.146-96 of subpart B of this part. 
Accordingly, for the fuel dispensing spitback test the term ``final 
deteriorated test results'' shall mean the final test results derived in 
paragraph (b) of this section for each test vehicle, rounded to the same 
number of significant figures contained in the applicable standard in 
accordance with ASTM E 29-90, Standard Practice for Using Significant 
Digits in Test Data to Determine Conformance with Specifications. This 
procedure has been incorporated by reference (see Sec. 86.1).
    (d) Within five working days after completion of testing of all 
vehicles pursuant to a test order, the manufacturer shall submit to the

Sec. 86.609-96  Calculation and reporting of test results.

    Section 86.609-96 includes text that specifies requirements that 
differ from Sec. 86.609-84. Where a paragraph in Sec. 86.609-84 is 
identical and applicable to Sec. 86.609-96, this is indicated by 
specifying the corresponding paragraph and the statement ``[Reserved]. 
For guidance see Sec. 86.609-84.'' Where a corresponding paragraph of 
Sec. 86.609-84 is not applicable, this is indicated by the statement 
``[Reserved].''
    (a) Initial test results are calculated following the test 
procedures specified in Sec. 86.608(a). Round the initial test results 
to the number of decimal places contained in the applicable emission 
standard expressed to one additional significant figure. Rounding is 
done in accordance with ASTM E 29-90, Standard Practice for Using 
Significant Digits in Test Data to Determine Conformance with 
Specifications. This procedure has been incorporated by reference (see 
Sec. 86.1).
    (b) Final test results for each test vehicle are calculated by 
summing the initial test results within a specific FTP, CST, or Cold 
Temperature CO Test Procedure derived in paragraph (a) of this section 
for each test vehicle, dividing by the number of times that specific 
FTP, CST, or Cold Temperature CO Test Procedure has been conducted on 
the vehicle, and rounding to the same number of decimal places contained 
in the applicable emission standard expressed to one additional 
significant figure. Rounding is done in accordance with ASTM E 29-90, 
Standard Practice for Using Significant Digits in Test Data to Determine 
Conformance with Specifications. This procedure has been incorporated by 
reference (see Sec. 86.1).
    (c) Final deteriorated test results--(1) For each test vehicle. The 
final deteriorated test results for each test vehicle are calculated by 
multiplying the final test results by the appropriate deterioration 
factor derived from the certification process for the engine family and 
model year to which the selected configuration belongs and rounding to 
the same number of decimal places contained in the applicable emission 
standard. Rounding is done in accordance with ASTM E 29-90, Standard 
Practice for Using Significant Digits in Test Data to Determine 
Conformance with Specifications. This procedure has been incorporated by 
reference (see Sec. 86.1). For the purpose of this paragraph, if a 
deterioration factor as computed during the certification process is 
less than one, that deterioration factor is one.
    (2) Exceptions. (i) There are no deterioration factors for light-
duty vehicle emissions obtained during testing in accordance with 
subpart O of this part. Accordingly, for the CST the term ``final 
deteriorated test results'' means the final test results derived in 
paragraph (b) of this section for each test vehicle, rounded to the same 
number of decimal places contained in the applicable emission standard. 
Rounding is done in accordance with ASTM E 29-90, Standard Practice for 
Using Significant Digits in Test Data to Determine Conformance with 
Specifications. This procedure has been incorporated by reference (see 
Sec. 86.1).
    (ii) There are no deterioration factors for light-duty vehicles 
tested in accordance with Sec. 86.146-96. Accordingly, for the fuel 
dispensing spitback test the term ``final deteriorated test results'' 
means the final test results derived in paragraph (b) of this section 
for each test vehicle, rounded to the same number of significant figures 
contained in the applicable standard in accordance with ASTM E 29-90, 
Standard Practice for Using Significant Digits in Test Data to Determine 
Conformance

Sec. 86.609-97  Calculation and reporting of test results.

    Section 86.609-97 includes text that specifies requirements that 
differ from those specified in Secs. 86.609-84 and 86.609-96. Where a 
paragraph in Sec. 86.609-84 or Sec. 86.609-96 is identical and 
applicable to Sec. 86.609-97, this may be indicated by specifying the 
corresponding paragraph and the statement ``[Reserved]. For guidance see 
Sec. 86.609-84.'' or ``[Reserved]. For guidance see Sec. 86.609-96.''
    (a) through (b) [Reserved]. For guidance see Sec. 86.609-96.
    (c) Final deteriorated test results--(1) For each test vehicle. The 
final deteriorated test results for each test vehicle tested according 
to subpart B, subpart C, or subpart R of this part are calculated by 
first multiplying or adding, as appropriate, the final test results by 
or to the appropriate deterioration factor derived from the 
certification process for the engine or evaporative/refueling family and 
model year to which the selected configuration belongs, and then by 
multiplying by the appropriate reactivity adjustment factor, if 
applicable, and rounding to the same number of decimal places contained 
in the applicable emission standard. Rounding is done in accordance with 
the Rounding-Off Method specified in ASTM E29-90, Standard Practice for 
Using Significant Digits in Test Data to Determine Conformance with 
Specifications. This procedure is incorporated by reference (see 
Sec. 86.1). For the purpose of this paragraph (c), if a multiplicative 
deterioration factor as computed during the certification process is 
less than one, that deterioration factor is one. If an additive 
deterioration factor as computed during the certification process is 
less than zero, that deterioration factor will be zero.
    (c)(2) [Reserved]. For guidance see Sec. 86.609-96.
    (d) [Reserved]. For guidance see Sec. 86.609-84.

Sec. 86.609-98  Calculation and reporting of test results.

    (a) Initial test results are calculated following the test 
procedures specified in Sec. 86.608-98(a). Round the initial test 
results to the number of decimal places contained in the applicable 
emission standard expressed to one additional significant figure. 
Rounding is done in accordance with ASTM E 29-67, (reapproved 1980) (as 
referenced in Sec. 86.094-28 (a)(4)(i)(B)(2)(ii).
    (b) Final test results for each test vehicle are calculated by 
summing the initial test results derived in paragraph (a) of this 
section for each test vehicle, dividing by the number of times that 
specific test has been conducted on the vehicle, and rounding to the 
same number of decimal places contained in the applicable standard 
expressed to one additional significant figure. Rounding is done in 
accordance with ASTM E 29-67, (reapproved 1980) (as referenced in 
Sec. 86.094-28 (a)(4)(i)(B)(2)(ii).
    (c) Final deteriorated test results--(1) For each test vehicle. The 
final deteriorated test results for each light-duty vehicle tested for 
exhaust emissions and/or refueling emissions according to subpart B, 
subpart C, or subpart R of this part are calculated by first multiplying 
or adding, as appropriate, the final test results by or to the 
appropriate deterioration factor derived from the certification process 
for the engine or evaporative/refueling family and model year to which 
the selected configuration belongs, and then by multiplying by the 
appropriate reactivity adjustment factor, if applicable, and rounding to 
the same number of decimal places contained in the applicable emission 
standard. Rounding is done in accordance with the Rounding-Off Method 
specified in ASTM E29-90, Standard Practice for Using Significant Digits 
in Test Data to Determine Conformance with Specifications. This 
procedure has been incorporated by reference (see Sec. 86.1). For the 
purpose of this paragraph (c), if a multiplicative deterioration factor 
as computed during the certification process is less than one, that 
deterioration factor is one. If an additive deterioration factor as 
computed during the certification process is less than zero, that 
deterioration factor will be zero.

[[Page 661]]

    (2) Exceptions. There are no deterioration factors for light-duty 
vehicle emissions obtained during testing in accordance with subpart O 
of this part or with Sec. 86.146-96. Accordingly, for the CST and the 
fuel dispensing spitback test the term ``final deteriorated test 
results'' means the final test results derived in paragraph (b) of this 
section for each test vehicle, rounded to the same number of decimal 
places contained in the applicable emission standard. Rounding is done 
in accordance with ASTM E 29-67, (reapproved 1980) (as referenced in 
Sec. 86.094-28 (a)(4)(i)(B)(2)(ii).
    (d) Within five working days after completion of testing of all 
vehicles pursuant to a test order, the manufacturer shall submit to the 
Administrator a report which includes the following information:
    (1) The location and description of the manufacturer's emission test 
facilities which were utilized to conduct testing reported pursuant to

Sec. 86.610-96  Compliance with acceptable quality level and passing and
               failing criteria for Selective Enforcement Audits.

    (a) The prescribed acceptable quality level is 40 percent.
    (b) A failed vehicle is one whose final deteriorated test results 
pursuant to Sec. 86.609-96(c), for one or more of the applicable 
pollutants, including fuel spitback, exceed the applicable emission 
standard. For the CST as described in subpart O of this part, a vehicle 
fail determination is made if the final deteriorated test results for HC 
and/or CO emissions from any CST exceed the applicable emission 
standard.
    (c) Pass/fail criteria--(1) FTP criteria. The manufacturer must test 
vehicles comprising the test sample until a pass

[[Page 662]]

decision is reached for all pollutants, or a fail decision is reached 
for one pollutant. A pass decision is reached when the cumulative number 
of failed vehicles, as defined in paragraph (b) of this section, for 
each pollutant is less than or equal to the fail decision number 
appropriate to the cumulative number of vehicles tested. A fail decision 
is reached when the cumulative number of failed vehicles for one 
pollutant is greater than or equal to the fail decision number 
appropriate to the cumulative number of vehicles tested. The pass and 
fail decision numbers associated with the cumulative number of vehicles 
tested are determined by use of the tables in appendix XI to this part 
appropriate for the annual projected sales as made by the manufacturer 
in its report submitted under Sec. 600.207-80(a)(2) of this chapter 
(Automobile Fuel Economy Regulations). In the tables in appendix XI to 
this part, sampling plan ``stage'' refers to the cumulative number of 
vehicles tested. Once a pass decision has been made for a particular 
pollutant, the number of vehicles whose final deteriorated test results 
exceed the emission standard for that pollutant may not be considered 
any further for purposes of the audit.
    (2) CST criteria. A pass/fail decision is based on the CST in its 
entirety rather than on a per pollutant basis. The manufacturer must 
test vehicles comprising the test sample until a pass or fail decision 
is reached based on CST testing. A pass decision is reached when the 
cumulative number of failed vehicles, as defined in paragraph (b) of 
this section, based on CST testing is less than or equal to the pass 
decision number appropriate to the cumulative number of vehicles tested. 
A fail decision is reached when the cumulative number of failed vehicles 
based on CST testing is greater than or equal to the fail decision 
number appropriate to the cumulative number of vehicles tested. The pass 
and fail decision numbers associated with the cumulative number of 
vehicles tested are determined by use of the tables in appendix XI to 
this part appropriate for the annual projected sales as made by the 
manufacturer in its report submitted under Sec. 600.207-80(a)(2) of this 
chapter (Automobile Fuel Economy Regulations). In the tables in appendix 
XI to this part, sampling plan ``stage'' refers to the cumulative number 
of vehicles tested. Once a pass decision has been made based on CST 
testing, the number of vehicles whose final deteriorated test results 
exceed any of the emission standards for any CST may not be considered 
any further for purposes of the audit.
    (d) Passing or failing of an SEA occurs when the decision is made on 
the last vehicle required to make a decision under paragraph (c) of this 
section.
    (e) The Administrator may terminate testing earlier than required in 
paragraph (c) of this section.

Sec. 86.610-98  Compliance with acceptable quality level and passing and
              failing criteria for Selective Enforcement Audits.

    (a) The prescribed acceptable quality level is 40 percent.
    (b) A failed vehicle is one whose final deteriorated test results 
pursuant to Sec. 86.609-98(c) exceed at least one of the applicable 
emission standards associated with the test procedures pursuant to 
Sec. 86.608-98(a).
    (c)(1) Pass/fail criteria. The manufacturer shall test vehicles 
comprising the test sample until a pass decision is reached for all of 
the pollutants associated with all of the test procedures pursuant to 
Sec. 86.608-98(a) or a fail decision is reached for one of these 
pollutants. A pass decision is reached when the cumulative number of 
failed vehicles, as defined in paragraph (b) of this section, for each 
pollutant is less than or equal to the fail decision number appropriate 
to the cumulative number of vehicles tested. A fail decision is reached 
when the cumulative number of failed vehicles for one pollutant is 
greater than or equal to the fail decision number appropriate to the 
cumulative number of vehicles tested. The pass and fail decision numbers 
associated with the cumulative number of vehicles tested are determined 
by use of the tables in appendix XI of this part appropriate for the 
annual projected sales as made by the manufacturer in its report 
submitted under Sec. 600.207-80(a)(2) of this chapter (Automobile

[[Page 663]]

Fuel Economy Regulations). In the tables in appendix XI of this part, 
sampling plan ``stage'' refers to the cumulative number of vehicles 
tested. Once a pass decision has been made for a particular pollutant 
associated with a particular test procedure pursuant to Sec. 86.608-
98(a), the number of vehicles whose final deteriorated test results 
exceed the emission standard for that pollutant may not be considered 
any further for purposes of the audit.
    (2) CST criteria only. For CST testing pursuant to subpart O, a pass 
or fail decision is determined according to the pass/fail criteria 
described in paragraph (c)(1) of this section, except that for each 
vehicle, the CST in its entirety is considered one pollutant.
    (d) Passing or failing of an SEA audit occurs when the decision is 
made on the last vehicle required to make a decision under paragraph (c) 
of this section.
    (e) The Administrator may terminate testing earlier than required in 
paragraph (c) of this section.
[59 FR 16304, Apr. 6, 1994]



Sec. 86.612-84  Suspension and revocation of certificates of conformity.

    (a) The certificate of conformity is suspended with respect to any 
vehicle failing pursuant to paragraph (b) of Sec. 86.610 effective from 
the time that testing of that vehicle is completed.
    (b) The Administrator may suspend the certificate of conformity for 
a configuration which does not pass a Selective Enforcement Audit 
pursuant to paragraph Sec. 86.610(c) based on the first test, or all 
tests, conducted on each vehicle. This suspension will not occur before 
ten days after failure to pass the audit.
    (c) If the results of vehicle testing pursuant to these regulations 
indicate the vehicles of a particular configuration produced at more 
than one plant do not conform to the regulations with respect to which 
the certificate of conformity was issued, the Administrator may suspend 
the certificate of conformity with respect to that configuration for 
vehicles manufactured by the manufacturer in other plants of the 
manufacturer.
    (d) The Administrator will notify the manufacturer in writing of any 
suspension or revocation of a certificate of conformity in whole or in 
part: Except, That the certificate of conformity is immediately 
suspended with respect to any vehicle failing pursuant to Sec. 86.610(a) 
and as provided for in paragraph (a) of this section.
    (e) The Administrator may revoke a certificate of conformity for a 
configuration when the certificate has been suspended pursuant to 
paragraph (b) or (c) of this section if the proposed remedy for the 
nonconformity, as reported by the manufacturer to the Administrator, is 
one requiring a design change(s) to the engine and/or emission control 
system as described in the Application for Certification of the affected 
configuration.
    (f) Once a certificate has been suspended for a failed vehicle as 
provided for in paragraph (a) of this section, the manufacturer must 
take the following actions:
    (1) Before the certificate is reinstated for that failed vehicle,
    (i) Remedy the nonconformity, and
    (ii) Demonstrate that the vehicle's final deteriorated test results 
conform to the applicable emission standards or family particulate 
emission limits, as defined in part 86 by retesting the vehicle in 
accordance with these regulations.
    (2) Submit a written report to the Administrator within thirty days 
after successful completion of testing on the failed vehicle, which 
contains a description of the remedy and test results for the vehicle in 
addition to other information that may be required by this regulation.
    (g) Once a certificate has been suspended pursuant to paragraph (b) 
or (c) of this section, the manufacturer must take the following actions 
before the Administrator will consider reinstating such certificate:
    (1) Submit a written report to the Administrator which identifies 
the reason for the noncompliance of the vehicles, describes the proposed 
remedy, including a description of any proposed quality control and/or 
quality assurance measures to be taken by the manufacturer to prevent 
the future occurrence of the problem, and states the date on which the 
remedies will be implemented, and

[[Page 664]]

    (2) Demonstrate that the vehicle configuration for which the 
certificate of conformity has been suspended does in fact comply with 
these regulations by testing vehicles selected from normal production 
runs of that vehicle configuration, at the plant(s) or the facilities 
specified by the Administrator, in accordance with the conditions 
specified in the initial test order; except, that if the Administrator 
has not revoked the certificate pursuant to paragraph (e) of this 
section and if the manufacturer elects to continue testing individual 
vehicles after suspension of a certificate, the certificate is 
reinstated for any vehicle actually determined to have its final 
deteriorated test results in conformance with the applicable standards 
through testing in accordance with the applicable test procedures.
    (h) Once a certificate for a failed configuration has been revoked 
under paragraph (e) of this section and the manufacturer desires to 
introduce into commerce a modified version of that configuration, the 
following actions will be taken before the Administrator may issue a 
certificate for the new configuration:
    (1) If the Administrator determines that the proposed change(s) in 
vehicle design may have an effect on emission performance deterioration 
and/or fuel economy, he shall notify the manufacturer within 5 working 
days after receipt of the report in paragraph (g) of this section 
whether subsequent testing under this subpart will be sufficient to 
evaluate the proposed change(s) or whether additional testing will be 
required; and
    (2) After implementing the change(s) intended to remedy the 
nonconformity, the manufacturer shall demonstrate that the modified 
vehicle configuration does in fact conform with these regulations by 
testing vehicles selected from normal production runs of that modified 
vehicle configuration in accordance with the conditions specified in the 
initial test order. The Administrator shall consider this testing to 
satisfy the testing requirements of Sec. 86.079-32 or Sec. 86.079-33 if 
the Administrator had so notified the manufacturer. If the subsequent 
testing results in passing of the audit, the Administrator shall reissue 
or amend the certificate, if necessary, to include that configuration: 
Provided, That the manufacturer has satisfied the testing requirements 
specified in paragraph (h)(1) of this section. If the subsequent audit 
is failed, the revocation remains in effect. Any design change approvals 
under this subpart are limited to the modification of the configuration 
specified by the test order.
    (i) A manufacturer may at any time subsequent to an initial 
suspension of a certificate of conformity with respect to a test vehicle 
pursuant to paragraph (a) of this section, but not later than fifteen 
(15) days or such other period as may be allowed by the Administrator 
after notification of the Administrator's decision to suspend or revoke 
a certificate of conformity in whole or in part pursuant to paragraph 
(b), (c) or (e) of this section, request that the Administrator grant 
such manufacturer a hearing as to whether the tests have been properly 
conducted or any sampling methods have been properly applied.
    (j) After the Administrator suspends or revokes a certificate of 
conformity pursuant to this section or notifies a manufacturer of his 
intent to suspend, revoke or void a certificate of conformity under 
paragraph (d) of Sec. 86.084-30, and prior to the commencement of a 
hearing under Sec. 86.614, if the manufacturer demonstrates to the 
Administrator's satisfaction that the decision to suspend, revoke or 
void the certificate was based on erroneous information, the 
Administrator shall reinstate the certificate.
    (k) To permit a manufacturer to avoid storing non-test vehicles when 
conducting an audit of a configuration subsequent to suspension or 
revocation of the certificate of conformity for that configuration, 
resulting from failure of the initial audit of that configuration, he 
may request that the Administrator conditionally reinstate the 
certificate for that configuration. The Administrator may reinstate the 
certificate subject to the condition that the manufacturer consents to 
recall all vehicles of that configuration produced from the time the 
certificate is conditionally reinstated if the configuration

[[Page 665]]

fails the subsequent audit and to remedy any nonconformity at no expense 
to the owner.
[41 FR 31483, July 28, 1976, as amended at 43 FR 4553, Feb. 2, 1978; 49 
FR 48484, Dec. 12, 1984. Redesignated at 54 FR 2123, Jan. 19, 1989]



Sec. 86.612-97  Suspension and revocation of certificates of conformity.

    (a) The certificate of conformity is immediately suspended with 
respect to any vehicle failing pursuant to Sec. 86.610(b) effective from 
the time that testing of that vehicle is completed.
    (b)(1) Selective Enforcement Audits. The Administrator may suspend 
the certificate of conformity for a configuration that does not pass a 
Selective Enforcement Audit pursuant to Sec. 86.610-98(c) based on the 
first test, or all tests, conducted on each vehicle. This suspension 
will not occur before ten days after failure to pass the audit.
    (2) California Assembly-Line Quality Audit Testing. The 
Administrator may suspend the certificate of conformity for a 50-state 
family or configuration tested in accordance with procedures prescribed 
under Sec. 86.608 that the Executive Officer has determined to be in 
non-compliance with one or more applicable pollutants based on the 
requirements specified in Chapter 1 or Chapter 2 of the California 
Regulatory Requirements Applicable to the National Low Emission Vehicle 
Program (October, 1996), if the results of vehicle testing conducted by 
the manufacturer do not meet the acceptable quality level criteria 
pursuant to Sec. 86.610. The California Regulatory Requirements 
Applicable to the National Low Emission Vehicle Program (October, 1996) 
are incorporated by reference (see Sec. 86.1). A vehicle that is tested 
by the manufacturer pursuant to California Assembly-Line Quality Audit 
Test Procedures, in accordance with procedures prescribed under 
Sec. 86.608, and determined to be a failing vehicle will be treated as a 
failed vehicle described in Sec. 86.610(b), unless the manufacturer can 
show that the vehicle would not be considered a failed vehicle using the 
test procedures specified in Sec. 86.608. This suspension will not occur 
before ten days after the manufacturer receives written notification 
that the Administrator has determined the 50-state family or 
configuration exceeds one or more applicable federal standards.
    (c)(1) Selective Enforcement Audits. If the results of vehicle 
testing pursuant to the requirements of this subpart indicates the 
vehicles of a particular configuration produced at more than one plant 
do not conform to the regulations with respect to which the certificate 
of conformity was issued, the Administrator may suspend the certificate 
of conformity with respect to that configuration for vehicles 
manufactured by the manufacturer in other plants of the manufacturer.
    (2) California Assembly-Line Quality Audit Testing. If the 
Administrator determines that the results of vehicle testing pursuant to 
the requirements specified in Chapter 1 or Chapter 2 of the California 
Regulatory Requirements Applicable to the National Low Emission Vehicle 
Program (October, 1996) and the procedures prescribed in Sec. 86.608 
indicate the vehicles of a particular 50-state engine family or 
configuration produced at more than one plant do not conform to 
applicable federal regulations with respect to which a certificate of 
conformity was issued, the Administrator may suspend, pursuant to 
paragraph (b)(2) of this section, the certificate of conformity with 
respect to that engine family or configuration for vehicles manufactured 
in other plants of the manufacturer. The California Regulatory 
Requirements Applicable to the National Low Emission Vehicle Program 
(October, 1996) are incorporated by reference (see Sec. 86.1).
    (d) The Administrator will notify the manufacturer in writing of any 
suspension or revocation of a certificate of conformity in whole or in 
part: Except, that the certificate of conformity is immediately 
suspended with respect to any vehicle failing pursuant to Sec. 86.610(b) 
and as provided for in paragraph (a) of this section.
    (e)(1) Selective Enforcement Audits. The Administrator may revoke a 
certificate of conformity for a configuration when the certificate has 
been suspended pursuant to paragraph (b)(1) or (c)(1) of this section if 
the proposed

[[Page 666]]

remedy for the nonconformity, as reported by the manufacturer to the 
Administrator, is one requiring a design change(s) to the engine and/or 
emission control system as described in the Application for 
Certification of the affected configuration.
    (2) California Assembly-Line Quality Audit Testing. The 
Administrator may revoke a certificate of conformity for an engine 
family or configuration when the certificate has been suspended pursuant 
to paragraph (b)(2) or (c)(2) of this section if the proposed remedy for 
the nonconformity, as reported by the manufacturer to the Executive 
Officer and/or the Administrator, is one requiring a design change(s) to 
the engine and/or emission control system as described in the 
Application for Certification of the affected engine family or 
configuration.
    (f) Once a certificate has been suspended for a failed vehicle as 
provided for in paragraph (a) of this section, the manufacturer must 
take the following actions:
    (1) Before the certificate is reinstated for that failed vehicle--
    (i) Remedy the nonconformity; and
    (ii) Demonstrate that the vehicle's final deteriorated test results 
conform to the applicable emission standards or family particulate 
emission limits, as defined in this part 86 by retesting the vehicle in 
accordance with the requirements of this subpart.
    (2) Submit a written report to the Administrator within thirty days 
after successful completion of testing on the failed vehicle, which 
contains a description of the remedy and test results for the vehicle in 
addition to other information that may be required by this subpart.
    (g) Once a certificate has been suspended pursuant to paragraph (b) 
or (c) of this section, the manufacturer must take the following actions 
before the Administrator will consider reinstating such certificate:
    (1) Submit a written report to the Administrator which identifies 
the reason for the noncompliance of the vehicles, describes the proposed 
remedy, including a description of any proposed quality control and/or 
quality assurance measures to be taken by the manufacturer to prevent 
the future occurrence of the problem, and states the date on which the 
remedies will be implemented.
    (2) Demonstrate that the engine family or configuration for which 
the certificate of conformity has been suspended does in fact comply 
with the requirements of this subpart by testing vehicles selected from 
normal production runs of that engine family or configuration at the 
plant(s) or the facilities specified by the Administrator, in accordance 
with:
    (i) The conditions specified in the initial test order pursuant to 
Sec. 86.603 for a configuration suspended pursuant to paragraph (b)(1) 
or (c)(1) of this section; or
    (ii) The conditions specified in a test order pursuant to 
Sec. 86.603 for an engine family or configuration suspended pursuant to 
paragraph (b)(2) or (c)(2) of this section.
    (3) If the Administrator has not revoked the certificate pursuant to 
paragraph (e) of this section and if the manufacturer elects to continue 
testing individual vehicles after suspension of a certificate, the 
certificate is reinstated for any vehicle actually determined to have 
its final deteriorated test results in conformance with the applicable 
standards through testing in accordance with the applicable test 
procedures.
    (4) In cases where the Administrator has suspended a certificate of 
conformity for a 50-state engine family or configuration pursuant to 
paragraph (b)(2) or (c)(2) of this section, manufacturers may request in 
writing that the Administrator reinstate the certificate of an engine 
family or configuration when, in lieu of the actions described in 
paragraphs (g) (1) and (2) of this section, the manufacturer has agreed 
to comply with Chapter 3 of the California Regulatory Requirements 
Applicable to the National Low Emission Vehicle Program (October, 1996), 
provided an Executive Order is in place for the engine family or 
configuration. The California Regulatory Requirements Applicable to the 
National Low Emission Vehicle Program (October, 1996) are incorporated 
by reference (see Sec. 86.1).
    (h) Once a certificate for a failed engine family or configuration 
has been revoked under paragraph (e) (1) or (2) of

[[Page 667]]

this section and the manufacturer desires to introduce into commerce a 
modified version of that engine family or configuration, the following 
actions will be taken before the Administrator may issue a certificate 
for the new engine family or configuration:
    (1) If the Administrator determines that the proposed change(s) in 
vehicle design may have an effect on emission performance deterioration 
and/or fuel economy, he/she shall notify the manufacturer within five 
working days after receipt of the report in paragraph (g)(1) of this 
section or after receipt of information pursuant to paragraph (g)(4) of 
this section whether subsequent testing under this subpart will be 
sufficient to evaluate the proposed change(s) or whether additional 
testing will be required.
    (2) After implementing the change(s) intended to remedy the 
nonconformity, the manufacturer shall demonstrate:
    (i) If the certificate was revoked pursuant to paragraph (e)(1) of 
this section, that the modified vehicle configuration does in fact 
conform with the requirements of this subpart by testing vehicles 
selected from normal production runs of that modified vehicle 
configuration in accordance with the conditions specified in the initial 
test order pursuant to Sec. 86.603. The Administrator shall consider 
this testing to satisfy the testing requirements of Sec. 86.079-32 or 
Sec. 86.079-33 if the Administrator had so notified the manufacturer. If 
the subsequent testing results in a pass decision pursuant to the 
criteria in Sec. 86.610-96(c), the Administrator shall reissue or amend 
the certificate, if necessary, to include that configuration: Provided, 
that the manufacturer has satisfied the testing requirements specified 
in paragraph (h)(1) of this section. If the subsequent audit results in 
a fail decision pursuant to the criteria in Sec. 86.610(c), the 
revocation remains in effect. Any design change approvals under this 
subpart are limited to the modification of the configuration specified 
by the test order.
    (ii) If the certificate was revoked pursuant to paragraph (e)(2) of 
this section, that the modified engine family or configuration does in 
fact conform with the requirements of this subpart by testing vehicles 
selected from normal production runs of that modified engine family or 
configuration in accordance with the conditions specified in a test 
order pursuant to Sec. 86.603. The Administrator shall consider this 
testing to satisfy the testing requirements of Sec. 86.079-32 or 
Sec. 86.079-33 if the Administrator had so notified the manufacturer. If 
the subsequent testing results in a pass decision pursuant to 
Sec. 86.610(c), the Administrator shall reissue or amend the certificate 
as necessary: Provided, That the manufacturer has satisfied the testing 
requirements specified in paragraph (h)(1) of this section. If the 
subsequent testing results in a fail decision pursuant to 
Sec. 86.610(c), the revocation remains in effect. Any design change 
approvals under this subpart are limited to the modification of engine 
family or configuration specified by the test order.
    (3) In cases where the Administrator has revoked a certificate of 
conformity for a 50-state engine family or configuration pursuant to 
paragraph (e)(2) of this section, manufacturers may request in writing 
that the Administrator reissue the certificate of an engine family or 
configuration when, in lieu of the actions described in paragraphs (h) 
(1) and (2) of this section, the manufacturer has complied with Chapter 
3 of the California Regulatory Requirements Applicable to the National 
Low Emission Vehicle Program (October, 1996), provided an Executive 
Order is in place for the engine family or configuration. The California 
Regulatory Requirements Applicable to the National Low Emission Vehicle 
Program (October, 1996) are incorporated by reference (see Sec. 86.1).
    (i) A manufacturer may at any time subsequent to an initial 
suspension of a certificate of conformity with respect to a test vehicle 
pursuant to paragraph (a) of this section, but not later than fifteen 
(15) days or such other period as may be allowed by the Administrator 
after notification of the Administrator's decision to suspend or revoke 
a certificate of conformity in whole or in part pursuant to paragraph 
(b), (c) or (e) of this section, request that the Administrator grant 
such manufacturer a hearing as to whether the tests have

[[Page 668]]

been properly conducted or any sampling methods have been properly 
applied.
    (j) After the Administrator suspends or revokes a certificate of 
conformity pursuant to this section or notifies a manufacturer of his 
intent to suspend, revoke or void a certificate of conformity under 
Sec. 86.084-30(d), and prior to the commencement of a hearing under 
Sec. 86.614, if the manufacturer demonstrates to the Administrator's 
satisfaction that the decision to suspend, revoke or void the 
certificate was based on erroneous information, the Administrator shall 
reinstate the certificate.
    (k) To permit a manufacturer to avoid storing non-test vehicles when 
conducting testing of an engine family or configuration subsequent to 
suspension or revocation of the certificate of conformity for that 
engine family or configuration pursuant to paragraph (b), (c), or (e) of 
this section, the manufacturer may request that the Administrator 
conditionally reinstate the certificate for that engine family or 
configuration. The Administrator may reinstate the certificate subject 
to the condition that the manufacturer consents to recall all vehicles 
of that engine family or configuration produced from the time the 
certificate is conditionally reinstated if the engine family or 
configuration fails the subsequent testing and to remedy any 
nonconformity at no expense to the owner.
[62 FR 31236, June 6, 1997]



Sec. 86.614-84  Hearings on suspension, revocation, and voiding of certificates of conformity.

    (a) Applicability. The procedures prescribed by this section apply 
whenever a manufacturer requests a hearing under Sec. 86.084-
30(d)(6)(i), Sec. 86.084-30(d)(7), or Sec. 86.612(i).
    (b) Definitions. The following definitions shall be applicable to 
this section:
    (1) Hearing Clerk shall mean the Hearing Clerk of the Environmental 
Protection Agency.
    (2) Manufacturer refers to a manufacturer contesting a suspension or 
revocation order directed at the manufacturer.
    (3) Party shall include the Agency and the manufacturer.
    (4) Presiding Officer shall mean an Administrative Law Judge 
appointed pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 3105 (see also 5 CFR part 930 as 
amended).
    (5) Environmental Appeals Board shall mean the Board within the 
Agency described in section 1.25 of this title. The Administrator 
delegates to the Environmental Appeals Board authority to issue final 
decisions in appeals filed under this subpart. Appeals directed by the 
Administrator, rather than to the Environmental Appeals Board, will not 
be considered. This delegation of authority to the Environmental Appeals 
Board does not preclude the Environmental Appeals Board from referring 
an appeal or a motion filed under this subpart to the Administrator for 
decision when the Environmental Appeals Board, in its discretion, deems 
it appropriate to do so. When an appeal or motion is referred to the 
Administrator, all parties shall be so notified and the rules in this 
part referring to the Environmental Appeals Board shall be interpreted 
as referring to the Administrator.
    (c) Request for public hearing. (1) If the manufacturer disagrees 
with the Administrator's decision to suspend, revoke, or void a 
certificate or disputes the basis for an automatic suspension under 
Sec. 86.612(a), it may request a public hearing as described in this 
section. Requests for such a hearing shall be filed with the 
Administrator not later than 15 days after the Administrator's 
notification of his decision to suspend or revoke unless otherwise 
specified by the Administrator. Two copies of such request shall 
simultaneously be served upon the Director of the Manufacturers 
Operations Division and two copies filed with the Hearing Clerk. Failure 
of the manufacturer to request a hearing within the time provided shall 
constitute a waiver of his right to such a hearing. Subsequent to the 
expiration of the period for requesting a hearing as of right, the 
Administrator may, in his discretion and for good cause shown, grant the 
manufacturer a hearing to contest the suspension or revocation.
    (2) The request for a public hearing shall contain:

[[Page 669]]

    (i) A statement as to which vehicle configurations or engine 
families are to be the subject of the hearing;
    (ii) A concise statement of the issues to be raised by the 
manufacturer at the hearing for each vehicle configuration or engine 
family or vehicle for which the manufacturer has requested the hearing: 
Provided, however, That in the case of a hearing request under paragraph 
Sec. 86.612(i), the hearing is restricted to the following issues:
    (A) Whether tests were conducted in accordance with applicable 
regulations under this part;
    (B) Whether test equipment was properly calibrated and functioning;
    (C) Whether sampling procedures specified in appendix XI of this 
part were followed; and
    (D) Whether there exists a basis for distinguishing vehicles 
produced at plants other than the one from which vehicles were selected 
which would invalidate the Administrator's decision under 
Sec. 86.612(c);
    (iii) A statement specifying reasons the manufacturer believes he 
will prevail on the merits on each of the issues so raised; and
    (iv) A summary of the evidence which supports the manufacturer's 
position on each of the issues so raised.
    (3) A copy of all requests for public hearings shall be kept on file 
in the Office of the Hearing Clerk and shall be made available to the 
public during Agency business hours.
    (d) Summary decision. (1) In the case of a hearing requested under 
Sec. 86.612(i), when it clearly appears from the data and other 
information contained in the request for a hearing that there is no 
genuine and substantial question of fact with respect to the issues 
specified in Sec. 86.614(c)(2)(ii), the Administrator shall enter an 
order denying the request for a hearing. In addition, if the original 
decision to suspend or revoke a certificate of conformity was made under 
Sec. 86.612(d) prior to the decision to deny the request for a hearing, 
the order denying the request will reaffirm the suspension or 
revocation.
    (2) In the case of a hearing requested under Sec. 86.084-
30(d)(6)(i), to challenge a proposed suspension of a certificate of 
conformity for the reasons specified in Sec. 86.084-30(d)(1) (i) or 
(ii), when it clearly appears from the data and other information 
contained in the request for a hearing that there is no genuine and 
substantial question of fact with respect to the issue of whether the 
refusal to comply with the provisions of a test order or any other 
requirement of Sec. 86.603 was caused by conditions and circumstances 
outside the control of the manufacturer, the Administrator will enter an 
order denying the request for a hearing, and suspending the certificate 
of conformity.
    (3) Any order issued under paragraph (d) (1) or (2) of this section 
shall have the force and effect of a final decision of the 
Administrator, as issued pursuant to paragraph (w)(4) of this section.
    (4) If the Administrator determines that a genuine and substantial 
question of fact does exist with respect to any of the issues referred 
to in paragraphs (d)(1) and (2) of this section, he shall grant the 
request for a hearing and publish a notice of public hearing in 
accordance with paragraph (h) of this section.
    (e) Filing and service. (1) An original and two copies of all 
documents or papers required or permitted to be filed pursuant to this 
section shall be filed with the Hearing Clerk. Filing shall be deemed 
timely if mailed, as determined by the postmark, to the Hearing Clerk 
within the time allowed by this section. If filing is to be accomplished 
by mailing, the documents shall be sent to the address set forth in the 
notice of public hearing as described in paragraph (h) of this section.
    (2) To the maximum extent possible, testimony shall be presented in 
written form. Copies of written testimony shall be served upon all 
parties as soon as practicable prior to the start of the hearing. A 
certificate of service shall be provided on or accompany each document 
or paper filed with the Hearing Clerk. Documents to be served upon the 
Director of the Manufacturers Operations Division shall be sent by 
registered mail to: Director, Manufacturers Operations Division, U.S. 
Environmental Protection Agency (EN-340), 401 M Street, SW., WSM, 
Washington, DC 20460. Service by registered mail is complete upon 
mailing.
    (f) Time. (1) In computing any period of time prescribed or allowed 
by this

[[Page 670]]

section, except as otherwise provided, the day of the act or event from 
which the designated period of time begins to run shall not be included. 
Saturdays, Sundays, and Federal legal holidays shall be included in 
computing any such period allowed for the filing of any document or 
paper, except that when such period expires on a Saturday, Sunday, or 
Federal legal holiday, such period shall be extended to include the next 
following business day.
    (2) A prescribed period of time within which a party is required or 
permitted to do an act shall be computed from the time of service, 
except that when service is accomplished by mail, three days shall be 
added to the prescribed period.
    (g) Consolidation. The Administrator or the Presiding Officer in his 
discretion may consolidate two or more proceedings to be held under this 
section for the purpose of resolving one or more issues whenever it 
appears that such consolidation will expedite or simplify consideration 
of such issues. Consolidation shall not affect the right of any party to 
raise issues that could have been raised if consolidation had not 
occurred.
    (h) Notice of public hearings. (1) Notice of a public hearing under 
this section shall be given by publication in the Federal Register and 
by such other means as the Administrator finds appropriate to provide 
notice to the public. To the extent possible hearings under this section 
shall be scheduled to commence within 14 days of receipt of the 
application in paragraph (c) of this section.
    (i) Amicus curiae. Persons not parties to the proceeding wishing to 
file briefs may do so by leave of the Presiding Officer granted on 
motion. A motion for leave shall identify the interest of the applicant 
and shall state the reasons why the proposed amicus brief is desirable.
    (j) Presiding Officer. The Presiding Officer shall have the duty to 
conduct a fair and impartial hearing in accordance with 5 U.S.C. 
sections 554, 556 and 557 and to take all necessary action to avoid 
delay in the disposition of the proceedings and to maintain order. He 
shall have all power consistent with Agency rule and with the 
Administrative Procedure Act necessary to this end, including the 
following:
    (1) To administer oaths and affirmations;
    (2) To rule upon offers of proof and exclude irrelevant or 
repetitious material;
    (3) To regulate the course of the hearings and the conduct of the 
parties and their counsel therein;
    (4) To hold conferences for simplification of the issues or any 
other proper purpose;
    (5) To consider and rule upon all procedural and other motions 
appropriate in such proceedings;
    (6) To require the submission of direct testimony in written form 
with or without affidavit whenever, in the opinion of the Presiding 
Officer, oral testimony is not necessary for full and true disclosure of 
the facts;
    (7) To enforce agreements and orders requiring access as authorized 
by law;
    (8) To require the filing of briefs on any matter on which he is 
required to rule;
    (9) To require any party or any witness, during the course of the 
hearing, to state his position on any issue;
    (10) To take or cause depositions to be taken whenever the ends of 
justice would be served thereby;
    (11) To make decisions or recommend decisions to resolve the 
disputed issues on the record of the hearing;
    (12) To issue, upon good cause shown, protective orders as described 
in paragraph (n) of this section.
    (k) Conferences. (1) At the discretion of the Presiding Officer, 
conferences may be held prior to or during any hearing. The Presiding 
Officer shall direct the Hearing Clerk to notify all parties of the time 
and location of any such conference. At the discretion of the Presiding 
Officer, persons other than parties may attend. At a conference the 
Presiding Officer may:
    (i) Obtain stipulations and admissions, receive requests and order 
depositions to be taken, identify disputed issues of fact and law, and 
require or allow the submission of written testimony from any witness or 
party;
    (ii) Set a hearing schedule for as many of the following as are 
deemed necessary by the Presiding Officer:
    (A) Oral and written statements;

[[Page 671]]

    (B) Submission of written direct testimony as required or authorized 
by the Presiding Officer;
    (C) Oral direct and cross-examination of a witness where necessary 
as prescribed in paragraph (p) of this section: and
    (D) Oral argument, if appropriate.
    (iii) Identify matters of which official notice may be taken;
    (iv) Consider limitation of the number of expert and other 
witnesses;
    (v) Consider the procedure to be followed at the hearing; and
    (vi) Consider any other matter that may expedite the hearing or aid 
in the disposition of the issue.
    (2) The results of any conference including all stipulations shall, 
if not transcribed, be summarized in writing by the Presiding Officer 
and made part of the record.
    (l) Primary discovery (exchange of witness lists and documents). (1) 
At a prehearing conference or within some reasonable time set by the 
Presiding Officer prior to the hearing, each party shall make available 
to the other parties the names of the expert and other witnesses the 
party expects to call, together with a brief summary of their expected 
testimony and a list of all documents and exhibits which the party 
expects to introduce into evidence. Thereafter, witnesses, documents, or 
exhibits may be added and summaries of expected testimony amended upon 
motion by a party.
    (2) The Presiding Officer, may, upon motion by a party or other 
person, and for good cause shown, by order (i) restrict or defer 
disclosure by a party of the name of a witness or a narrative summary of 
the expected testimony of a witness, and (ii) prescribe other 
appropriate measures to protect a witness. Any party affected by any 
such action shall have an adequate opportunity, once he learns the name 
of a witness and obtains the narrative summary of his expected 
testimony, to prepare for the presentation of his case.
    (m) Other discovery. (1) Except as so provided by paragraph (l) of 
this section, further discovery, under this paragraph, shall be 
permitted only upon determination by the Presiding Officer:
    (i) That such discovery will not in any way unreasonably delay the 
proceeding;
    (ii) That the information to be obtained is not obtainable 
voluntarily; and
    (iii) That such information has significant probative value. The 
Presiding Officer shall be guided by the procedures set forth in the 
Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, where practicable, and the precedents 
thereunder, except that no discovery shall be undertaken except upon 
order of the Presiding Officer or upon agreement of the parties.
    (2) The Presiding Officer shall order depositions upon oral 
questions only upon a showing of good cause and upon a finding that:
    (i) The information sought cannot be obtained by alternative 
methods; or
    (ii) There is a substantial reason to believe that relevant and 
probative evidence may otherwise not be preserved for presentation by a 
witness at the hearing.
    (3) Any party to the proceeding desiring an order of discovery shall 
make a motion or motions therefor. Such a motion shall set forth:
    (i) The circumstances warranting the taking of the discovery;
    (ii) The nature of the information expected to be discovered; and
    (iii) The proposed time and place where it will be taken.

If the Presiding Officer determines the motion should be granted, he 
shall issue an order for the taking of such discovery together with the 
conditions and terms thereof.
    (4) Failure to comply with an order issued pursuant to this 
paragraph may lead to the inference that the information to be 
discovered would be adverse to the person or party from whom the 
information was sought.
    (n) Protective orders, in camera proceedings. (1) Upon motion by a 
party or by the person from whom discovery is sought, and upon a showing 
by the movant that the disclosure of the information to be discovered, 
or a particular part thereof, (other than emission data) would result in 
methods or processes entitled to protection as trade secrets of such 
person being divulged, the Presiding Officer may enter a protective 
order with respect to such

[[Page 672]]

material. Any protective order shall contain such terms governing the 
treatment of the information as may be appropriate under the 
circumstances to prevent disclosure outside the hearing: Provided, That 
the order shall state that the material shall be filed separately from 
other evidence and exhibits in the hearing. Disclosure shall be limited 
to parties to the hearing, their counsel and relevant technical 
consultants, and authorized representatives of the United States 
concerned with carrying out the Act. Except in the case of the 
government, disclosure may be limited to counsel for parties who shall 
not disclose such information to the parties themselves. Except in the 
case of the government, disclosure to a party or his counsel shall be 
conditioned on execution of a sworn statement that no disclosure of the 
information will be made to persons not entitled to receive it under the 
terms of the protective order. (No such provision is necessary where 
government employees are concerned because disclosure by them is subject 
to the terms of 18 U.S.C. 1905.)
    (2)(i) A party or person seeking a protective order may be permitted 
to make all or part of the required showing in camera. A record shall be 
made of such in camera proceedings. If the Presiding Officer enters a 
protective order following a showing in camera, the record of such 
showing shall be sealed and preserved and made available to the agency 
or court in the event of appeal.
    (ii) Attendance at any in camera proceeding may be limited to the 
Presiding Officer, the agency, and the person or party seeking the 
protective order.
    (3) Any party, subject to the terms and conditions of any protective 
order issued pursuant to paragraph (n)(1) of this section, desiring for 
the presentation of his case to make use of any in camera documents or 
testimony shall make application to the Presiding Officer by motion 
setting forth the justification therefor. The Presiding Officer, in 
granting any such motion, shall enter an order protecting the rights of 
the affected persons and parties and preventing unnecessary disclosure 
of such information, including the presentation of such information and 
oral testimony and cross-examination concerning it in executive session, 
as in his discretion is necessary and practicable.
    (4) In the submittal of proposed findings, briefs, or other papers, 
counsel for all parties shall make a good faith attempt to refrain from 
disclosing the specific details of in camera documents and testimony. 
This shall not preclude references in such proposed findings, briefs, or 
other papers to such documents or testimony including generalized 
statements based on their contents. To the extent that counsel considers 
it necessary to include specific details in their presentations, such 
data shall be incorporated in separate proposed findings, briefs, or 
other papers marked ``confidential,'' which shall become part of the in 
camera record.
    (o) Motions. (1) All motions, except those made orally during the 
course of the hearing, shall be in writing and shall state with 
particularity the grounds therefore, shall set forth the relief or order 
sought, and shall be filed with the Hearing Clerk and served upon all 
parties.
    (2) Within such time as may be fixed by the Environmental Appeals 
Board or the Presiding Officer, as appropriate, any party may serve and 
file an answer to the motion. The movant shall, if requested by the 
Environmental Appeals Board or the Presiding Officer, as appropriate, 
serve and file reply papers within the time set by the request.
    (3) The Presiding Officer shall rule upon all motions filed or made 
prior to the filing of his decision or accelerated decision, as 
appropriate. The Environmental Appeals Board shall rule upon all motions 
filed prior to the appointment of a Presiding Officer and all motions 
filed after the filing of the decision of the Presiding Officer or 
accelerated decision. Oral argument of motions will be permitted only if 
the Presiding Officer or the Environmental Appeals Board, as 
appropriate, deems it necessary.
    (p) Evidence. (1) The official transcripts and exhibits, together 
with all papers and requests filed in the proceeding, shall constitute 
the record. Immaterial or irrelevant parts of an

[[Page 673]]

admissible document shall be segregated and excluded so far as 
practicable. Documents or parts thereof subject to a protective order 
under paragraph (n) of this section shall be segregated. Evidence may be 
received at the hearing even though inadmissible under the rules of 
evidence applicable to judicial proceedings. The weight to be given 
evidence shall be determined by its reliability and probative value.
    (2) The Presiding Officer shall allow the parties to examine and 
cross-examine a witness to the extent that such examination and cross-
examination is necessary for a full and true disclosure of the facts.
    (3) Rulings of the Presiding Officer on the admissibility of 
evidence, the propriety of examination and cross-examination and other 
procedural matters shall appear in the record.
    (4) Parties shall automatically be presumed to have taken exception 
to an adverse ruling.
    (q) Record. (1) Hearings shall be stenographically reported and 
transcribed and the original transcripts shall be part of the record and 
the sole official transcript. Copies of the record shall be filed with 
the Hearing Clerk and made available during Agency business hours for

    (5) No brief in excess of 15 pages shall be filed without leave of 
the Environmental Appeals Board.
    (v) Review of the Presiding Officer's decision in absence of appeal. 
(1) If after the expiration of the period for taking an appeal as 
provided for by paragraph (t) or (u) of this section no notice of 
intention to appeal the decision of the Presiding Officer has been 
filed, or if filed, not perfected, the Hearing Clerk shall so notify the 
Environmental Appeals Board.
    (2) The Environmental Appeals Board, upon receipt of notice from the 
Hearing Clerk that no notice of intention to appeal the decision of the 
Presiding Officer has been filed, or if filed, not perfected pursuant to 
paragraph (t) or (u) of this section, may, on its own motion, within the 
time limits specified in paragraph (s)(2) of this section, review the 
decision of the Presiding Officer. Notice of the intention of the 
Environmental Appeals Board to review the decision of the Presiding 
Officer shall be given to all parties and shall set forth the scope of 
such review and the issues which shall be considered and shall make 
provision for filing of briefs.
    (w) Decision of appeal or review. (1) Upon appeal from or review of 
the Presiding Officer's decision, the Environmental Appeals Board shall 
consider such parts of the record as are cited or as may be necessary to 
resolve the issues presented and in addition shall, to the extent 
necessary or desirable, exercise all the powers which it could have 
exercised if it had presided at the hearing.
    (2) In rendering its decision, the Environmental Appeals Board shall 
adopt, modify or set aside the findings, conclusions, and order 
contained in the decision of the Presiding Officer and shall set forth 
in its decision a statement of the reasons or bases for its action.
    (3) In those cases where the Environmental Appeals Board determines 
that it should further information or additional views of the parties as 
to the form and content of the rule or order to be issued, the 
Environmental Appeals Board, in its discretion, may

[[Page 675]]

withhold final action pending the receipt of such additional information 
or views, or may remand the case to the Presiding Officer.
    (4) Any decision rendered under this paragraph which completes 
disposition of a case shall be a final decision of the Environmental 
Appeals Board.
    (x) Reconsideration. Within twenty (20) days after issuance of the 
Environmental Appeals Board's decision, any party may file with the 
Environmental Appeals Board a petition for reconsideration of such 
decision, setting forth the relief desired and the grounds in support 
thereof. Any petition filed under this subsection must be confined to 
new questions raised by the decision or final order and upon which the 
petitioner had no opportunity to argue before the Presiding Officer or 
the Environmental Appeals Board; Provided, however, That in the case of 
a hearing requested under Sec. 86.612(i) such new questions shall be 
limited to the issues specified in paragraph (c)(2)(ii) of this section. 
Any party desiring to oppose such a petition shall file an answer 
thereto within ten (10) days after the filing of the petition. The 
filing of a petition for reconsideration shall not operate to stay the 
effective date of the decision or order or to toll the running of any 
statutory time period affecting such decision or order unless 
specifically so ordered by the Environmental Appeals Board.
    (y) Accelerated decision, dismissal. (1) The Presiding Officer, upon 
motion of any party or sua sponte, may at any time render an accelerated 
decision in favor of the Agency or the manufacturer as to all or any 
part of the proceeding, without further hearing or upon such limited 
additional evidence such as affidavits as he may require, or dismiss any 
party with prejudice, for any of the following reasons:
    (i) Failure to state a claim upon which relief can be granted, or 
direct or collateral estoppel;
    (ii) The lack of any genuine issue of material fact, causing a party 
to be entitled to judgment as a matter of law; or
    (iii) Such other and further reasons as are just, including 
specifically failure to obey a procedural order of the Presiding 
Officer.
    (2) If under this paragraph an accelerated decision is issued as to 
all the issues and claims joined in the proceeding, the decision shall 
be treated for the purposes of these procedures as the decision of the 
Presiding Officer as provided in paragraph (s) of this section.
    (3) If under this paragraph, judgment is rendered on less than all 
issues or claims in the proceeding, the Presiding Officer shall 
determine what material facts exist without substantial controversy and 
what material facts are actually and in good faith controverted. He 
shall thereupon issue an order specifying the facts which appear without 
substantial controversy, and the issues and claims upon which the 
hearing will proceed.
    (z) Conclusion of hearing. (1) If, after the expiration of the 
period for taking an appeal as provided for by paragraph (t) and (u) of 
this section, no appeal has been taken from the Presiding Officer's 
decision, and after the expiration of the period for review by the 
Environmental Appeals Board on its own motion as provided for by 
paragraph (v) of this section, the Environmental Appeals Board does not 
move to review such decision, the hearing will be deemed to have ended 
at the expiration of all periods allowed for such appeal and review.
    (2) If an appeal of the Presiding Officer's decision is taken 
pursuant to paragraphs (t) and (u) of this section, or if, in the 
absence of such appeal, the Environmental Appeals Board moves to review 
the decision of the Presiding Officer pursuant to paragraph (v) of this 
section, the hearing will be deemed to have ended upon rendering of a 
final decision by the Environmental Appeals Board.
    (aa) Judicial review. (1) The Administrator hereby designates the 
General Counsel, Environmental Protection Agency as the officer upon 
whom copy of any petition for judicial review shall be served. Such 
officer shall be responsible for filing in the court the record on which 
the order of the Environmental Appeals Board is based.
    (2) Before forwarding the record to the court, the Agency shall 
advise the petitioner of costs of preparing it and as soon as payment to 
cover fees is

[[Page 676]]

made, shall forward the record to the court.

Sec. 86.615-84  Treatment of confidential information.

    (a) Any manufacturer may assert that some or all of the information 
submitted pursuant to this subpart is entitled to confidential treatment 
as provided by 40 CFR part 2, subpart B.
    (b) Any claim of confidentiality must accompany the information at 
the time it is submitted to EPA.
    (c) To assert that information submitted pursuant to this subpart is 
confidential, a manufacturer must indicate clearly the items of 
information claimed confidential by marking, circling, bracketing, 
stamping, or otherwise specifying the confidential information. 
Furthermore, EPA requests, but does not require, that the submitter also 
provide a second copy of its submittal from which all confidential 
information has been deleted. If a need arises to publicly release 
nonconfidential information, EPA will assume that the submitter has 
accurately deleted the confidential information from this second copy.
    (d) If a claim is made that some or all of the information submitted 
pursuant to this subpart is entitled to confidential treatment, the 
information covered by that confidentiality claim will be disclosed by 
the Environmental Appeals Board only to the extent and by means of the 
procedures set forth in part 2, subpart B, of this chapter.
    (e) Information provided without a claim of confidentiality at the 
time of submission may be made available to the public by EPA without 
further notice to the submitter, in accordance with 40 CFR 
2.204(c)(2)(i)(A).

shall be based on the total actual combined U.S. sales of light-duty 
vehicles and light light-duty trucks of the applicable model year by a 
manufacturer to a dealer, distributor, fleet operator, broker, or any 
other entity which comprises the point of first sale.
    (ii) The manufacturer may petition the Administrator to allow actual 
volume produced for U.S. sales to be used in lieu of actual U.S. sales 
for purposes of determining compliance with the implementation schedule 
sales percentages of tables H94-1, H94-2 and H94-5 of this section. Such 
petition shall be submitted within 30 days of the end of the model year 
to the Manufacturers Operations Division. For the petition to be 
granted, the manufacturer must establish to the satisfaction of the 
Administrator that actual production volume is functionally equivalent 
to actual sales volume.
    (iii) The vehicles that are counted toward the implementation 
schedule sales percentage, or toward the total on which such percentage 
is based, for certification purposes as prescribed by Sec. 86.094-8 
(a)(1)(i)(B)(1)(iii) of subpart A of this part, shall be the same 
vehicles that are counted toward the implementation schedule sales 
percentage, or the total on which it is based, for in-use purposes.
    (iv) Small volume manufacturers, as defined in Sec. 86.092-14 (b) 
(1) and (2), are exempt from the implementation schedules of tables H94-
1 and H94-2 of this section for model years 1994 through 1997, and from 
the implementation schedule of table H94-5 of this section for model 
years 1994 and 1995. For small volume manufacturers, Tier 0 standards of 
table H94-6 continue to apply until model year 1996 and Tier 0 standards 
of table H94-3 continue to apply until model year 1998, when one hundred 
percent compliance with the Tier 1 standards of tables H94-3, H94-4, 
H94-6, and H94-7 is required. This exemption does not apply to small 
volume engine families as defined in Sec. 86.092-14 (b)(5).
    (2)(i) For 1994 and 1995 model year light-duty vehicles, the engine 
families which comprise the required implementation schedule percentage 
of sales meeting Tier 1 standards for HCs, CO, and NOX, for 
purposes of certification, shall be the same engine families which 
comprise the required implementation schedule percentage of sales 
meeting the interim in-use standards (labeled ``Tier 1I'' in 
the tables of in-use standards) for in-use purposes.
    (ii) For 1996 and 1997 model year light-duty vehicles the engine 
families which comprise the required implementation schedule percentage 
of sales meeting interim in-use standards (labeled ``Tier 
1I'' in the tables of in-use standards) and final in-use 
standards (labeled ``Tier 1'' in the tables of in-use standards) 
respectively, for HCs, CO, and NOX, for in-use purposes, 
shall be designated by the manufacturer at the time of Application for 
Certification.
    (iii) For 1994 and 1995 model year light-duty vehicles, the engine 
families which comprise the required implementation schedule percentage 
of sales meeting Tier 1 standards, for PM, for purposes of 
certification, shall be the same engine families which comprise the 
required implementation schedule percentage of sales meeting the final 
in-use standards (labeled ``Tier 1'' in the tables of in-use standards) 
for PM for in-use purposes.
    (3) The manufacturer must state at the time of Application for 
Certification, based on projected U.S. sales or projected production for 
U.S. sale, which families will be used to attain the required 
implementation schedule sales percentages for in-use purposes.
    (4) A manufacturer cannot use one set of engine families to meet its 
in-use intermediate useful life standards and another to meet its in-use 
full useful life standards. The same families which are used to meet the 
intermediate useful life standards will be required without deviation to 
meet the corresponding full useful life standards.
    (ii) Engine families participating in the particulate averaging 
program as

[[Page 680]]

specified in Sec. 86.094-8 (a)(1)(ii) shall be subject, for purposes of 
in-use compliance, to the particulate family emission limit determined 
for that engine family for certification purposes, in lieu of the 
appropriate particulate standard shown in the tables of in-use standards 
in this section.
    (iii) CST emissions from model year 1996 and later gasoline-fueled 
Otto-cycle light-duty vehicles measured and calculated in accordance 
with subpart O of this part may not exceed the standards listed in 
paragraphs (a)(1)(iii) (A) and (B) of this section.
    (A) Hydrocarbons: 220 ppm as hexane.
    (B) Carbon monoxide: 1.2 percent.
    (2) The standards set forth in paragraph (a)(1)(i) of this section 
refer to the exhaust emitted over a driving schedule as set forth in 
subpart B of this part and measured and calculated in accordance with 
those procedures. The test weight basis for light-duty vehicles, for the 
purposes of determining equivalent test weight as prescribed in 
Sec. 86.129-94, shall be loaded vehicle weight.
    (3) The standards set forth in paragraph (a)(1)(iii) of this section 
refer to the exhaust emitted during the CST as set forth in subpart O of 
this part and measured and calculated in accordance with those 
provisions.
    (b) The provisions of Sec. 86.090-8(b) through (h) of subpart A of 
this part apply to this section. The provisions of Sec. 86.096-8(i) 
through (k) of subpart A of this part apply to this section.

\2\ Applicable only to diesel-cycle vehicles.

    (B)(1)(i) Sales percentages for the purposes of determining 
compliance with paragraph (a)(1)(i)(A) of this section shall be based on 
total actual U.S. sales of light-duty vehicles of the applicable model 
year by a manufacturer to a dealer, distributor, fleet operator, broker, 
or any other entity which comprises the point of first sale. If the 
option of paragraph (a)(1)(i)(A)(3) is taken, such sales percentages 
shall be based on the total actual combined U.S. sales of light-duty 
vehicles and light light-duty trucks of the applicable model year by a 
manufacturer to a dealer, distributor, fleet operator, broker, or any 
other entity which comprises the point of first sale.
    (ii) The manufacturer may petition the Administrator to allow actual 
volume produced for U.S. sale to be used in lieu of actual U.S. sales 
for purposes of determining compliance with the implementation schedule 
sales percentages of tables H94-8 and H94-11 of this section. Such 
petition shall be submitted within 30 days of the end of the model year 
to the Manufacturers Operations Division. For the petition to be 
granted, the manufacturer must establish to the satisfaction of the 
Administrator that actual production volume is functionally equivalent 
to actual sales volume.
    (iii) The vehicles that are counted toward the implementation 
schedule sales percentage, or toward the total on which such percentage 
is based, for certification purposes as prescribed by Sec. 86.094-
9(a)(1)(i)(B)(1)(iii) of subpart A of this part, shall be the same 
vehicles that are counted toward the implementation schedule sales 
percentage, or the total on which it is based, for in-use purposes.
    (iv) Small volume manufacturers, as defined in Sec. 86.092-14(b) (1) 
and (2), are exempt from the implementation schedules of table H94-8 of 
this section for model years 1994 through 1997 and from the 
implementation schedules of table H94-11 of this section for model years 
1995 and 1996. For small volume manufacturers, Tier 0 standards of 
tables H94-9 and H94-10 continue to apply until model year 1998 and the 
Tier 0 standards of tables H94-12 and H94-13 continue to apply until 
model year 1997, when one hundred percent compliance with the Tier 1 
standards of such tables is required. This exemption does not apply to 
small volume engine families as defined in Sec. 86.092-14 (b)(5).
    (2)(i) For 1994 and 1995 model year light light-duty trucks, the 
engine families which comprise the required implementation schedule 
percentage of sales meeting Tier 1 standards for HCs, CO, and 
NOX, for purposes of certification, shall be the same engine 
families which comprise the required implementation schedule percentage 
of sales meeting the interim in-use standards (labeled ``Tier 
1I'' in the tables of in-use standards) for in-use purposes.
    (ii) For 1996 and 1997 model year light light-duty trucks, the 
engine families which comprise the required implementation schedule 
percentage of sales meeting interim in-use standards (labeled ``Tier 
1I'' in the tables of in-use standards) and final in-use 
standards (labeled ``Tier 1'' in the tables of in-use standards) 
respectively, for HCs, CO, and NOX, for in-use purposes, 
shall be designated by the manufacturer at the time of certification.
    (iii) For 1995 and 1996 model year light light-duty trucks, the 
engine families which comprise the required implementation schedule 
percentage of sales meeting Tier 1 standards, for PM, for purposes of 
certification, shall be the same engine families which comprise the 
required implementation schedule percentage of sales meeting the final 
in-use standards (labeled ``Tier 1'' in the tables of in-use standards) 
for PM for in-use purposes.

[[Page 685]]

    (3) The manufacturer must state at the time of Application for 
Certification, based on projected U.S. sales or projected production for 
U.S. sale, which families will be used to attain the required 
implementation schedule sales percentages for in-use purposes.
    (4) A manufacturer can not use one set of engine families to meet 
its in-use intermediate useful life standards and another to meet its 
in-use full useful life standards. The same families which are used to 
meet the intermediate useful life standards will be required without 
deviation to meet the corresponding full useful life standards.
    (ii) Heavy light-duty trucks. In-use exhaust emissions from 1994 and 
later model year heavy light-duty trucks shall meet all standards in 
tables H94-15 and H94-16 in the rows designated with the applicable fuel 
type and loaded vehicle weight or adjusted loaded vehicle weight, as 
applicable, according to the implementation schedule in table H94-14, 
and shall meet all standards in tables H94-18 and H94-19 in the rows 
designated with the applicable fuel type and loaded vehicle weight or 
adjusted loaded vehicle weight, as applicable, according to the 
implementation schedules in table H94-17, as follows:
    (A)(1)(i) For model years 1994 through 1997, a minimum of the 
percentage shown in the Tier 1I column of table H94-14 of a 
manufacturer's sales of the applicable model year's heavy light-duty 
trucks shall not exceed the applicable Tier 1I standards in 
tables H94-15 and H94-16. The remaining vehicles, if any, shall not 
exceed the applicable Tier 0 standards in tables H94-15 and H94-16.
    (ii) For model year 1998, a minimum of the percentage shown in table 
H94-14 of a manufacturer's sales of the applicable model year's heavy 
light-duty trucks shall not exceed the applicable Tier 1 standards in 
tables H94-15 and H94-16. The remaining vehicles shall not exceed the 
applicable Tier 1I standards in tables H94-15 and H94-16.
    (iii) For model years 1999 and later, a minimum of the percentage 
shown in table H94-14 of a manufacturer's sales of the applicable model 
year's heavy light-duty trucks shall not exceed the applicable Tier 1 
standards in tables H94-15 and H94-16.
    (2) Particulates. For in-use exhaust emissions for model year 1994 
and later, a minimum of the percentage shown in table H94-17 of a 
manufacturer's sales of the applicable model year's heavy light-duty 
trucks shall not exceed the applicable Tier 1 standards in tables H94-18 
and H94-19. The remaining heavy light-duty trucks, if any, shall not 
exceed the applicable Tier 0 standards in tables H94-18 and H94-19.

    (B)(1)(i) Sales percentages for the purposes of determining 
compliance with paragraph (a)(1)(ii)(A) of this section shall be based 
on total actual U.S. sales of light-duty vehicles of the applicable 
model year by a manufacturer to a dealer, distributor, fleet operator, 
broker, or any other entity which comprises the point of first sale.
    (ii) The manufacturer may petition the Administrator to allow actual 
volume produced for U.S. sales to be used in lieu of actual U.S. sales 
for purposes of determining compliance with the implementation schedule 
sales percentages of tables H94-14 and H94-17 of this section. Such 
petition shall be submitted within 30 days of the end of the

[[Page 688]]

model year to the Manufacturers Operations Division. For the petition to 
be granted, the manufacturer must establish to the satisfaction of the 
Administrator that actual production volume is functionally equivalent 
to actual sales volume.
    (iii) The vehicles that are counted toward the implementation 
schedule sales percentage, or toward the total on which such percentage 
is based, for certification purposes as prescribed by Sec. 86.094-
9(a)(1)(ii)(B)(1)(iii) of subpart A of this part, shall be the same 
vehicles that are counted toward the implementation schedule sales 
percentage, or the total on which it is based, for in-use purposes.
    (iv) Small volume manufacturers, as defined in Sec. 86.092-14(b) (1) 
and (2), are exempt from the implementation schedules of tables H94-14 
of this section for model years 1996 through 1998 and from the 
implementation schedules of table H94-17 of this section for model year 
1996. For small volume manufacturers, Tier 0 standards of tables H94-15 
and H94-16 continue to apply until model year 1999 and the Tier 0 
standards of tables H94-18 and H94-19 continue to apply until model year 
1997, when one hundred percent compliance with the Tier 1 standards of 
such tables is required. This exemption does not apply to small volume 
engine families as defined in Sec. 86.092-14(b)(5).
    (2)(i) For 1996 and 1997 model year heavy light-duty trucks, the 
engine families which comprise the required implementation schedule 
percentage of sales meeting Tier 1 standards for HCs, CO, and 
NOX, for purposes of certification, shall be the same engine 
families which comprise the required implementation schedule percentage 
of sales meeting the interim in-use standards (labeled ``Tier 
1I'' in the tables of in-use standards) for in-use purposes.
    (ii) For 1998 model year heavy light-duty trucks the engine families 
which comprise the required implementation schedule percentage of sales 
meeting interim in-use standards (labeled ``Tier 1I'' in the 
tables of in-use standards) and final in-use standards (labeled ``Tier 
1'' in the tables of in-use standards) for HCs, CO, and NOX, 
for in-use purposes, shall be designated by the manufacturer at the time 
of certification.
    (iii) For 1996 model year heavy light-duty trucks, the engine 
families which comprise the required implementation schedule percentage 
of sales meeting Tier 1 standards, for PM, for purposes of 
certification, shall be the same engine families which comprise the 
required implementation schedule percentage of sales meeting the final 
in-use standards (labeled ``Tier 1'' in the tables of in-use standards) 
for PM for in-use purposes.
    (3) The manufacturer must state at the time of Application for 
Certification, based on projected U.S. sales or projected production for 
U.S. sale, which families will be used to attain the required 
implementation schedule sales percentages.
    (4) A manufacturer can not use one set of engine families to meet 
its in-use intermediate useful life standards and another to meet its 
in-use full useful life standards. The same families which are used to 
meet the intermediate useful life standards will be required without 
deviation to meet the corresponding full useful life standards.
    (iii) Exhaust emissions of carbon monoxide from 1994 and later model 
year light-duty trucks shall not exceed 0.50 percent of exhaust gas flow 
at curb idle at a useful life of 11 years or 120,000 miles, whichever 
first occurs (for Otto-cycle and methanol-fueled diesel-cycle light-duty 
trucks only).
    (iv)(A) Engine families participating in the applicable 
NOX averaging program as specified in Sec. 86.094-
9(a)(1)(iv)(A) shall be subject, for purposes of in-use compliance, to 
the NOX family emission limit determined for that engine 
family for certification purposes, in lieu of the appropriate 
NOX standard shown in the tables of in-use standards in this 
section.
    (B) Engine families participating in the applicable particulate 
averaging program as specified in Sec. 86.094-9(a)(1)(iv)(B) shall be 
subject, for purposes of in-use compliance, to the particulate family 
emission limit determined for that engine family for certification 
purposes, in lieu of the appropriate particulate standard shown in the 
tables of in-use standards in this section.

    (v) CST emissions from model year 1996 and later gasoline-fueled 
Otto-cycle light-duty trucks measured and calculated in accordance with 
subpart O of this part may not exceed the standards listed in paragraphs 
(a)(1)(v) (A) and (B) of this section.
    (A) Hydrocarbons: 220 ppm as hexane.
    (B) Carbon monoxide: 1.2 percent.
    (2) The standards set forth in paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) 
of this section refer to the exhaust emitted over a driving schedule as 
set forth in subpart B of this part and measured and calculated in 
accordance with those procedures. The test weight basis for light light-
duty trucks, and for heavy light-duty trucks certified to the Tier 0 
standards of this section, for the purposes of determining equivalent 
test weight as prescribed in Sec. 86.129-94, shall be loaded vehicle 
weight. The test weight basis for heavy light-duty trucks certified to 
the Tier 1 or Tier 1I standards of this section, for the 
purposes of determining equivalent test weight as prescribed in 
Sec. 86.129-94, shall be adjusted loaded vehicle weight. The standard 
set forth in paragraph (a)(1)(iii) of this section refers to the exhaust 
emitted at curb idle and measured and calculated in accordance with the

Sec. 86.884-5  Test procedures.

    The procedures described in this and subsequent sections will be the 
test program to determine the conformity of engines with the standards 
set forth in Sec. 86.084-11(b).
    (a) The test consists of a prescribed sequence of engine operating 
conditions on an engine dynamometer with continuous examination of the 
exhaust gases. The test is applicable equally to controlled engines 
equipped with means for preventing, controlling, or eliminating smoke 
emissions and to uncontrolled engines.
    (b) The test is designed to determine the opacity of smoke in 
exhaust emissions during those engine operating conditions which tend to 
promote smoke from diesel vehicles.
    (c) The test procedure begins with a preconditioned engine which is 
then run through preloading and preconditioning operations. After an 
idling period, the engine is operated through acceleration and lugging 
modes during which smoke emission

[[Page 692]]

measurements are made to compare with the standards. The engine is then 
returned to the idle condition and the acceleration and lugging modes 
are repeated. Three consecutive sequences of acceleration and lugging 
constitutes the full set of operating conditions for smoke emission 
measurement.
    (d)(1) Except in cases of component mulfunction or failure, all 
emission control systems installed on, or incorporated in, a new motor 
vehicle engine shall be functioning during all procedures in this 
subpart.
    (2) Maintenance to correct component malfunction or failure shall be 
authorized in accordance with Sec. 86.084-25.

Sec. 86.884-7  Dynamometer operation cycle for smoke emission tests.

    (a) The following sequence of operations shall be performed during 
engine dynamometer testing of smoke emissions, starting with the 
dynamometer preloading determined and the engine preconditioned 
(Sec. 86.884-12(c)).
    (1) Idle Mode. The engine is caused to idle for 5.0 to 5.5 minutes 
at the manufacturer's recommended curb idle speed. The dynamometer 
controls shall be set to provide the speed and load necessary to comply 
with the heavy-duty ``curb idle'' definition per Sec. 86.084-2, in 
accordance with predominant engine application.
    (2) Acceleration mode. (i) The engine speed shall be increased to 
200 50 rpm above the measured free idle speed measured at 
the point where the throttle begins to move from part-throttle to the 
full throttle position. The speed anywhere during this mode should not 
exceed this checkpoint speed by more than 50 rpm. The duration of this 
first acceleration shall be three seconds or less measured from the 
point where the speed first begins to increase above idle to the point 
where the throttle reaches full open position.
    (ii) Immediately upon completion of the mode specified in paragraph 
(a)(2)(i) of this section, the throttle shall be moved rapidly to, and 
held in, the fully open position. The inertia of the engine and the 
dynamometer, or alternately a preselected dynamometer load, shall be 
used to control the acceleration of the engine so that the speed 
increases to 85 percent of the rated speed in 5 plus-minus1.5 
seconds. This acceleration shall be linear within 100 rpm as specified 
in Sec. 86.884-13(c).
    (iii) After the engine reaches the speed required in paragraph 
(a)(2)(ii) of this section the throttle shall be moved rapidly to, and 
held in, the fully closed position. Immediately after the throttle is 
closed, the preselected load required to perform the acceleration in 
paragraph (a)(2)(iv) of this section shall be applied. For electric 
motoring dynamometer operation in speed mode, the deceleration shall be 
performed in 21.5 seconds.
    (iv) When the engine decelerates to the intermediate speed (within 
50 rpm), the throttle shall be moved rapidly to, and held in, the fully 
open position. The preselected dynamometer load which was applied during 
the preceding transition period shall be used to control the 
acceleration of the engine so that the speed increases to at least 95 
percent of the rated speed in 10 plus-minus2 seconds.
    (v) For electric dynamometer operation in speed mode, motoring 
assist may be used to offset excessive dynamometer inertia load when 
necessary. No negative flywheel torque shall occur during any of the 
three acceleration modes in paragraph (a)(2) of this section except for 
a maximum of 10ft-lbs. for the first 0.5 second of the mode.
    (3) Lugging mode. (i) Immediately upon the completion of the 
preceding acceleration mode, the dynamometer controls shall be adjusted 
to permit the engine to develop maximum horsepower at rated speed. This 
transition period shall be 50 to 60 seconds in duration. During the last 
10 seconds of this period, the average engine speed shall be maintained 
within 50 rpm of the rated speed, and the average observed power 
(corrected, if necessary, to rating conditions) shall be no less than 95 
percent of the maximum horsepower

[[Page 693]]

developed during the preconditioning prior to the smoke cycle.
    (ii) With the throttle remaining in the fully open position, the 
dynamometer controls shall be adjusted gradually so that the engine 
speed is reduced to the intermediate speed. This lugging operation shall 
be performed smoothly over a period of 35#5 seconds. The rate of slowing 
of the engine shall be linear, within 100 rpm, as specified in 
Sec. 86.884-13(c).
    (4) Engine unloading. Within five seconds of completing the 
preceding lugging mode, the dynamometer and engine controls shall be 
returned to the idle position described in paragraph (a)(1) of this 
section. The engine must be at free idle condition within one minute 
after completion of the lugging mode.
    (b) The procedures described in paragraphs (a)(1) through (a)(4) of 
this section shall be repeated until three consecutive valid cycles have 
been completed. If three valid cycles have not been completed after a 
total of six consecutive cycles have been run, the engine shall be 
preconditioned by operation at maximum horsepower at rated speed for 10 
minutes before the test sequence is repeated.

Sec. 86.884-8  Dynamometer and engine equipment.

    The following equipment shall be used for smoke emission testing of 
engines on engine dynamometers:
    (a) An engine dynamometer with adequate characteristics to perform 
the test cycle described in Sec. 86.884-7.
    (b) An engine cooling system having sufficient capacity to maintain 
the engine at normal operating temperatures during conduct of the 
prescribed engine tests.
    (c) An exhaust system with an appropriate type of smokemeter placed 
10 to 32 feet from the exhaust manifold(s), turbocharger outlet(s), 
exhaust aftertreatment device(s), or crossover junction (on Vee 
engines), whichever is farthest downstream. The smoke exhaust system can 
share the same hardware required in part 86, subpart N, Sec. 86.1327-
84(f)(2), insofar as that hardware also meets the following smoke test 
requirements. The smoke exhaust system shall present an exhaust 
backpressure within +0.2 inch Hg of the upper limit at maximum rated 
horsepower, as established by the engine manufacturer in his sales and 
service literature for vehicle application. The following options may 
also be used:
    (1) For engines with multiple exhaust outlets, join the exhaust 
outlets together into a single exhaust system and install the smokemeter 
10 to 32 feet downstream from the junction of the individual exhaust 
outlets, or exhaust aftertreatment device(s), whichever is farthest 
downstream.
    (2) For engines with multiple exhaust outlets, install a smokemeter 
in each of the exhaust pipes 10 to 32 feet downstream from each exhaust 
manifold, turbocharger outlet, or exhaust aftertreatment device, 
whichever is farthest downstream.
    (3) For engines with multiple exhaust outlets, install a smokemeter 
on the exhaust pipe which produces the highest smoke levels 10 to 32 
feet downstream from the exhaust manifold, turbocharger outlet, or 
exhaust aftertreatment device, whichever is farthest downstream. It may 
be required to make smoke measurements from other exhaust outlets if 
deemed appropriate by the Administrator.
    (4) When utilizing an end-of-line smokemeter, the terminal two feet 
of the exhaust pipe used for smoke measurement shall be of a circular 
cross section and be free of elbows and bends. The end of the pipe shall 
be cut off squarely. The terminal two feet of the exhaust pipe shall 
have a nominal inside diameter in accordance with the engine being 
tested, as specified below:

    (5) When utilizing an in-line smokemeter, there shall be no change 
in the exhaust pipe diameter within 3 exhaust pipe diameters before or 
after

[[Page 694]]

the centerline of the smokemeter optics. Within 6 exhaust pipe diameters 
upstream of the centerline of the smokemeter optics, no change in 
exhaust pipe diameter may exceed a 12 degree half-angle.
    (d) An engine air inlet system presenting an air inlet restriction 
within one inch of water of the upper limit for the engine operating 
condition which results in maximum air flow, as established by the 
engine manufacturer in his sales and service literature, for the engine 
being tested.

    (a) Schematic drawing. The Figure I84-1 is a schematic drawing of 
the optical system of the light extinction meter.
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR06OC93.182

    (b) Equipment. The following equipment shall be used in the system.
    (1) Adapter--the smokemeter optical unit may be mounted on a fixed 
or movable frame. The normal unrestricted shape of the exhaust plume 
shall not be modified by the adaptor, the meter, or any ventilatory 
system used to remove the exhaust from the test site.
    (2) Smokemeter (light extinction meter)--continuous recording, full-
flow light obscuration meter.
    (i) It is positioned so that a built-in light beam traverses the 
exhaust smoke plume at right angles to the axis of the exhaust stream.
    (ii) The smokemeter light source shall be an incandescent lamp with 
a color temperature range of 2800K to 3250K, or a light source with a 
spectral peak between 550 to 570 nanometers.
    (iii) The light output is collimated to a beam with a maximum 
diameter of 1.125 inches and an included angle of divergence within a 
6 deg. included angle.
    (iv) The light detector shall be a photocell or photodiode. If the 
light source is an incandescent lamp, the detector shall have a spectral 
response similar to the photopic curve of the human eye (a maximum 
response in the range of 550 to 570 nanometers, to less than 4 percent 
of that maximum response below 430 nanometers and above 680 nanometers).
    (v) A collimating tube with apertures equal to the beam diameter is 
attached to the detector to restrict the viewing angle of the detector 
to within a 16 deg. included angle.
    (vi) An amplified signal corresponding to the amount of light 
blocked is recorded continuously on a remote recorder.
    (vii) An air curtain across the light source and detector window 
assemblies may be used to minimize deposition of smoke particles on 
those surfaces provided that it does not measurably affect the opacity 
of the plume.
    (viii) The smokemeter consists of two units; an optical unit and a 
remote control unit.
    (ix) Light extinction meters employing substantially identical 
measurement principles and producing substantially equivalent results, 
but which

[[Page 695]]

employ other electronic and optical techniques, may be used only after 
having been approved in advance by the Administrator.
    (3) Recorder--a continuous recorder, with variable chart speed over 
a minimal range of 0.5 to 8.0 inches per minute (or equivalent) and an 
automatic marker indicating 1-second intervals continuously records the 
exhaust gas opacity, engine rpm and throttle position.
    (i) The recorder is equipped to indicate only when the throttle is 
in the fully open or fully closed position.
    (ii) The recorder scale for opacity is linear and calibrated to read 
from 0 to 100 percent opacity full scale.
    (iii) The opacity trace has a resolution within one percent opacity.
    (iv) The recorder scale for engine rpm is linear and has a 
resolution of 30 rpm.
    (v) The throttle position trace clearly indicates when the throttle 
is in the fully open and fully closed positions.
    (vi) Any means other than a strip-chart recorder may be used 
provided it produces a permanent visual data record of quality equal to 
or better than that described above (e.g., tabulated data, traces, or 
plots).
    (4) The recorder used with the smokemeter shall be capable of full-
scale deflection in 0.5 second or less. The smokemeter-recorder 
combination may be damped so that signals with a frequency higher than 
10 cycles per second are attenuated. A separate lowpass electronic 
filter with the following performance characteristics may be installed 
between the smokemeter and the recorder to achieve the high-frequency 
attenuation:
    (i) Three decibel point--10 cycles per second.
    (ii) Insertion loss--zero 0.5 decibel.
    (iii) Selectivity--12 decibels per octave above 10 cycles per 
second.
    (iv) Attenuation--27 decibels down at 40 cycles per second minimum.
    (5) In lieu of the use of chart recorders, automatic data collection 
equipment may be used to record all required data. Automatic data 
processing equipment may then be used to perform the data analysis 
specified in Sec. 86.884-13. The automatic data collection equipment 
must be capable of sampling at least two records per second.
    (c) Assembling equipment. (1) The optical unit of the smokemeter 
shall be mounted radially to the exhaust pipe so that the measurement 
will be made at right angles to the axis of the exhaust plume. For an 
end-of-line smokemeter the distance from the optical centerline to the 
exhaust pipe outlet shall be 1 0.25 inch. The full flow of 
the exhaust stream shall be centered between the source and the detector 
apertures (or windows and lenses) and on the axis of the light beam.
    (2) Power shall be supplied to the control unit of the smokemeter in 
time to allow at least 15 minutes for stabilization prior to testing.

    (a) The smokemeter shall be checked according to the following 
procedure prior to each test:
    (1) [Reserved]
    (2) The zero control shall be adjusted under conditions of ``no 
smoke'' to give a recorder or data collection equipment response of 
zero;
    (3) Calibrated neutral density filters having approximately 10, 20, 
and 40 percent opacity shall be employed to check the linearity of the 
instrument. The filter(s) shall be inserted in the light path 
perpendicular to the axis of the beam and adjacent to the opening from 
which the beam of light from the light source emanates, and the recorder 
response shall be noted. Filters with exposed filtering media should be 
checked for opacity every six months; all other filters shall be checked 
every year, using NBS or equivalent reference filters. Deviations in 
excess of 1 percent of the nominal opacity shall be corrected.

cycle for smoke emission tests (Sec. 86.884-7(a)(2)). In a manner 
appropriate for the dynamometer and controls being used, arrange to 
conduct the acceleration mode;
    (4) Install smokemeter optical unit and connect it to the recorder/
data collection system. Connect the engine rpm and throttle position 
sensing devices to the recorder/data collection system;
    (5) Turn on purge air to the optical unit of the smokemeter, if 
purge air is used;
    (6) Check and record zero and span settings of the smokemeter. (If a

Sec. 86.884-13  Data analysis.

    The following procedure shall be used to analyze the test data:
    (a) Locate the modes specified in Sec. 86.884-7(a)(1) through (a)(4) 
by applying the following starting and ending criteria:
    (1) The idle mode specified in Sec. 86.884-7(a)(1) starts when 
engine preconditioning or the lugging mode of a preceding cycle has been 
completed and ends when the engine speed is raised above the idle speed.
    (2) The acceleration mode specified in Sec. 86.884-7(a)(2)(i) starts 
when the preceding idle mode has been completed and ends when the 
throttle is in the fully open position, as indicated by the throttle 
position trace as specified in Sec. 86.884-7(a)(2)(ii).
    (3) The acceleration mode specified in Sec. 86.884-7(a)(2)(ii) 
starts when the preceding acceleration mode has been completed and ends 
when the engine speed reaches 85 percent of the rated speed.
    (4) The transition period specified in Sec. 86.884-7(a)(2)(iii) 
starts when the preceding acceleration mode has been completed and ends 
when the throttle is in the fully open position as indicated by the 
throttle position trace, as specified in Sec. 86.884-7(a)(2)(iv).
    (5) The acceleration mode specified in Sec. 86.884-7(a)(2)(iv) 
starts when the preceding transition period has been completed and ends 
when the engine speed reaches 95 percent of the rated speed.

[[Page 698]]

    (6) The transition period specified in Sec. 86.884-7 (a)(3)(i) 
starts when the preceding acceleration mode has been completed and ends 
when the engine speed is 50 rpm below the rated speed and the provisions 
of Sec. 86.884-7 (a)(3)(i) are met.
    (7) The lugging mode specified in Sec. 86.884-7(a)(3)(ii) starts 
when the preceding transition period has been completed and ends when 
the engine speed is at the intermediate speed.
    (b) Determine if the test requirements of Sec. 86.884-7 are met by 
applying the following modal criteria:
    (1) Idle mode as specified in Sec. 86.884-7(a)(1):
    (i) Duration: 5 to 5.5 minutes.
    (ii) Speed: within specification during the last four minutes of the 
mode.
    (2) Acceleration mode as specified in Sec. 86.884-7(a)(2)(i).
    (i) Duration: three seconds or less.
    (ii) Speed increase: 20050 rpm.
    (3) Acceleration mode as specified in Sec. 86.884-7(a)(2)(ii);

percent of the rated speed.
    (4) Transition period as specified in Sec. 86.884-7(a)(2)(iii):
    (i) Throttle position: moved rapidly to, and held in, the fully 
closed position.
    (5) Acceleration mode as specified in Sec. 86.884-7(a)(2)(iv):
    (i) Duration: 8 to 12 seconds.
    (ii) Throttle position: fully open when speed is at intermediate 
speed.
    (6) Transition period as specified in Sec. 86.884-7(a)(3)(i):
    (i) Duration: 50 to 60 seconds.
    (ii) Average speed during the last 10 seconds shall be within 
50 rpm of rated speed.
    (iii) Average observed power during the last 10 seconds shall be at 
least 95 percent of the horsepower developed during the preconditioning 
mode.

met by means of the following procedure:
    (1) For the acceleration mode specified in Sec. 86.884-7(a)(2)(ii), 
note the maximum deflection of the rpm trace from a straight line drawn 
between the starting and ending points specified in paragraph (a)(3) of 
this section.
    (2) For the lugging mode specified in Sec. 86.884-7(a)(3)(ii), note 
the maximum deflection of the rpm trace from a straight line drawn from 
the starting and ending points specified in paragraph (a)(7) of this 
section.
    (3) The test results will be invalid if any deflection is greater 
than 100 rpm.
    (4) This linearity check may be performed by direct analysis of the 
recorder traces, or by computer analysis of data collected by automatic 
data collection equipment.
    (d) Analyze the smoke trace by means of the following procedure:
    (1) Starting at the beginning of the first acceleration, as defined 
in paragraph (a)(2) of this section, and stopping at the end of the 
second acceleration, as defined in paragraph (a)(3) of this section, 
divide the smoke trace into half-second intervals. Similarly, subdivide 
into half-second intervals the third acceleration mode and the lugging 
mode as defined by paragraphs (a) (5) and (7) respectively, of this 
section.
    (2) Determine the average smoke reading during each half-second 
interval.
    (3) Locate and record the 15 highest half-second readings during the 
acceleration mode of each dynamometer cycle.
    (4) Locate and record the five highest half-second readings during 
the lugging mode of each dynamometer cycle.
    (5) Examine the average half-second values which were determined in 
paragraphs (d)(3) and (d)(4) of this section and record the three 
highest values for each dynamometer cycle.
    (6) This smoke trace analysis may be performed by direct analysis of 
the recorder traces, or by computer analysis of data collected by 
automatic data collection equipment.

Sec. 86.884-14  Calculations.

    (a) If the measured half-second opacity values were obtained with a 
smokemeter with an optical path length different than shown in the table 
in Sec. 86.884-8(c), then convert the measured half-second values or the 
original instantaneous values to the appropriate equivalent optical path 
length values specified in the table. Convert the opacity values 
according to the following equations:

Ns=100 x (1-(1-Nm/100)Ls/Lm)

Lm and Ls must use consistent units in the above 
equation


Where:

Nm=Measured half-second value for conversion, percent opacity
Lm=Measuring smokemeter optical path length, meters
Ls=Standard optical path length corresponding with engine 
power, n
Ns=Standard half-second value, percent opacity

    (b) Average the 45 readings in Sec. 86.884-13(d)(3) or the 
equivalent converted values from paragraph (a) of this section if 
appropriate, and designate the value as ``A''. This is the value for the 
engine acceleration mode.
    (c) Average the 15 readings in Sec. 86.884-13(d)(4) or the 
equivalent converted values from paragraph (a) of this section if 
appropriate, and designate the value as ``B''. This is the value for the 
engine lugging mode.
    (d) Average the 9 readings in Sec. 86.884-13(d)(5) or the equivalent 
converted values from paragraph (a) of this section if appropriate, and 
designate the value as ``C''. This is the value for the peaks in either 
mode.
    (e)(1) If multiple smokemeters were used, the half-second values for 
each mode from each smokemeter shall be combined and the calculated 
average based upon the total number of combined values.
    (2) For example, if two smokemeters were used for acceleration mode 
data, 45 half-second values in each data set from both smokemeters would 
be combined to form a data set of 90 values, which would then be 
averaged.

Sec. 86.1008-90  Test procedures.

    (a)(1)(i) For heavy-duty engines, the prescribed test procedure is 
the Federal Test Procedure, as described in subparts N, I, and P of this 
part.
    (ii) For heavy-duty vehicles with a GVW of less than 14,000 pounds 
(6,400 kilograms), the prescribed test procedure is the Fuel Dispensing 
Spitback Test as described in 86.1246-96 of this part. The test for fuel 
spitback is conducted as a stand-alone test, thus all references to the 
test sequence described in figure M96-1 of subpart M of this part can be 
ignored.
    (iii) During the testing of heavy-duty diesel engines, the 
manufacturer shall decide for each engine, prior to the start of the 
initial cold cycle, whether the measurement of background particulate is 
required for the cold and hot cycles to be valid. The manufacturer may 
choose to have different requirements for the cold and hot cycles. If a 
manufacturer chooses to require the measurement of background 
particulate, failure to measure background particulate shall void the 
test cycle regardless of the test results. If a test cycle is void, the 
manufacturer shall retest using the same validity requirements of the 
initial test.
    (2) For light-duty trucks, the prescribed test procedure is the 
Federal Test Procedure as described in subparts B, P, and/or C of this 
part. The manufacturer shall not perform the evaporative emission test 
procedures contained in subpart B of this part. The Administrator may, 
based on advance application by a manufacturer, approve optional test 
procedures for use in Selective Enforcement Audit testing.
    (3) When testing light-duty trucks the following exceptions to the 
test procedures in subpart B are applicable:
    (i) For mileage accumulation, the manufacturer may use test fuel 
meeting the specifications of mileage and service accumulation fuels of 
Sec. 86.113. Otherwise, the manufacturer may use fuels other than those 
specified in this section only with the advance approval of the 
Administrator.
    (ii) The manufacturer may measure the temperature of the test fuel 
at other than the approximate mid-volume of the fuel tank, as specified 
in Sec. 86.131-96(a) with only a single temperature sensor, and may 
drain the test fuel from other than the lowest point of the tank, as 
specified in Sec. 86.131-96(b), provided an equivalent method is used. 
Equivalency documentation shall be maintained by the manufacturers and 
shall be made available to the Administrator upon request.
    (iii) The manufacturer may perform additional preconditioning on SEA 
test vehicles other than the preconditioning specified in Sec. 86.132 
only if the additional preconditioning had been performed on 
certification test vehicles of the same configuration.
    (iv) If the Administrator elects to use the evaporative canister 
preconditioning procedure described in Sec. 86.132-96(k), the 
manufacturer shall perform the heat build procedure 11 to 34 hours 
following vehicle preconditioning rather than according to the time 
period specified in Sec. 86.133-90(a). All references in Sec. 86.133-90 
to an evaporative emission enclosure (SHED) and analyzing for HC during 
the heat build can be ignored.
    (v) The manufacturer may substitute slave tires for the drive wheel 
tires on the vehicle as specified in paragraph (e)

[[Page 711]]

of Sec. 86.135-90: Provided, that the slave tires are the same size.
    (vi) If the Administrator elects to use the evaporative canister 
preconditioning procedure described in Sec. 86.132-96(k), the cold start 
exhaust test described in Sec. 86.137 shall follow the heat build 
procedure described in Sec. 86.133-90 by not more than one hour.
    (vii) In performing exhaust sample analysis under Sec. 86.140.
    (A) When testing diesel vehicles or methanol-fueled vehicles, the 
manufacturer shall allow a minimum of 20 minutes warm-up for the HC 
analyzer, and a minimum of 2 hours warm-up for the CO, CO2 
and NOX analyzers. (Power is normally left on infrared and 
chemiluminescent analyzers. When not in use, the chopper motors of the 
infrared analyzers are turned off and the phototube high voltage supply 
to the chemiluminescent analyzers is placed in the standby position.)
    (B) The manufacturer shall exercise care to prevent moisture from 
condensing in the sample collection bags.
    (viii) The manufacturer need not comply with Sec. 86.142, since the 
records required therein are provided under other provisions of subpart 
K of this part.
    (ix) In addition to the requirements of subpart B of this part, the 
manufacturer shall prepare gasoline-fueled vehicles and methanol-fueled 
vehicles as follows prior to exhaust emission testing:
    (A) The manufacturer shall inspect the fuel system to insure the 
absence of any leaks of liquid or vapor to the atmosphere by applying a 
pressure of 14.5 + 0.5 inches of water to the fuel system, allowing the 
pressure to stabilize, and isolating the fuel system from the pressure 
source. Following isolation of the fuel system, pressure must not drop 
more than 2.0 inches of water in five minutes. If required, the 
manufacturer shall perform corrective action in accordance with 
Sec. 86.1008 and report this action in accordance with Sec. 86.1009.
    (B) When performing this pressure check, the manufacturer shall 
exercise care to neither purge nor load the evaporative emission control

    (C) The manufacturer shall not modify the test vehicle's evaporative 
emission control system by component addition, deletion, or 
substitution, except to comply with paragraph (a)(4)(ii) of this section 
if approved in advance by the Administrator.
    (4) The Administrator, may on the basis of a written application by 
a manufacturer, prescribe minor test procedure variations from those set 
forth in paragraphs (a)(1) and (a)(2) of this section for any heavy-duty 
engine.
    (5) When testing light-duty trucks, the following exceptions to the 
test procedures in subpart C of this part are applicable:
    (i) The manufacturer may measure the temperature of the test fuel at 
other than the approximate mid-volume of the fuel tank as specified in 
Sec. 86.231(a) and may drain the test fuel from other than the lowest 
point of the fuel tank as specified in Sec. 86.231(b) provided an 
equivalent method is used. Equivalency documentation shall be maintained 
by the manufacturer and shall be made available to the Administrator 
upon request.
    (ii) In performing exhaust sample analysis under Sec. 86.240, the 
manufacturer shall exercise care to prevent moisture from condensing in 
the sample collection bags.
    (iii) The manufacturer need not comply with Sec. 86.242 since the

K of this part.
    (iv) In addition to the requirements of subpart C of this part, the 
manufacturer shall prepare gasoline-fueled vehicles as follows prior to 
exhaust emission testing.
    (A) The manufacturer shall inspect the fuel system to ensure the 
absence of any leaks of liquid or vapor to the atmosphere by applying a 
pressure of 14.50.5 inches of water (3.60.1 kPa) 
in the fuel system allowing the pressure to stabilize and isolating the 
fuel system from the pressure sources. Following isolation of the fuel 
system, pressure must not drop more than 2.0 inches of water (0.5 kPa) 
in 5 minutes. If required, the manufacturer shall perform corrective 
action in accordance with paragraph Sec. 86.1008(d) and report this 
action in accordance with paragraph Sec. 86.1009(d).
    (B) When performing this pressure check, the manufacturer shall 
exercise

[[Page 712]]

care to neither purge nor load the evaporative emission control system.
    (C) The manufacturer shall not modify the test vehicle's evaporative 
emission control system by component addition, deletion, or 
substitution, except if approved in advance by the Administrator to 
comply with paragraph (a)(5)(i) of this section.
    (b)(1) The manufacturer shall not adjust, repair, prepare, or modify 
the engines or vehicles selected for testing and shall not perform any 
emission tests on engines or vehicles selected for testing and shall not 
perform any emission tests on engines or vehicles selected for testing 
pursuant to the test order unless this adjustment, repair, preparation, 
modification, and/or tests are documented in the manufacturer's engine 
or vehicle assembly and inspection procedures and are actually performed 
or unless these adjustments and/or test are required or permitted under 
this subpart or are approved in advance by the Administrator.
    (2) For 1984 and later model years the Administrator may adjust or 
cause to be adjusted any engine parameter which the Administrator has 
determined to be subject to adjustment for certification, Selective 
Enforcement Audit, and Production Compliance Audit testing in accordance 
with Sec. 86.090-22(e)(1), to any setting within the physically 
adjustable range of that parameter, as determined by the Administrator 
in accordance with Sec. 86.090-22(e)(3)(ii), prior to the performance of 
any tests. However, if the idle speed parameter is one which the 
Administrator has determined to be subject to adjustment, the 
Administrator shall not adjust it to any setting which causes a lower 
engine idle speed than would have been possible within the physically 
adjustable range of the idle speed parameter if the manufacturer had 
accumulated 125 hours of service on the engine or 4,000 miles on the 
vehicle under paragraph (c) of this section, all other parameters being 
identically adjusted for the purpose of the comparison. The manufacturer 
may be requested to supply information to establish such an alternative 
minimum idle speed. The Administrator, in making or specifying these 
adjustments, may consider the effect of the deviation from the 
manufacturer's recommended setting on emissions performance 
characteristics as well as the likelihood that similar settings will 
occur on in-use heavy-duty engines or light-duty trucks. In determining 
likelihood, the Administrator may consider factors such as, but not 
limited to, the effect of the adjustment on engine or vehicle 
performance characteristics and surveillance information from similar 
in-use engines or vehicles.
    (c) Prior to performing exhaust emission testing on an SEA test 
engine, the manufacturer may accumulate on each engine a number of hours 
of service equal to the greater of 125 hours or the number of hours the 
manufacturer accumulated during certification on the emission-data 
engine corresponding to the configuration specified in the test order. 
Prior to performing exhaust emission testing on an SEA test vehicle, the 
manufacturer may accumulate a number of miles equal to the greater of 
4,000 miles or the number of miles the manufacturer accumulated during 
certification on the emission data vehicle corresponding to the 
configuration specified in the test order.
    (1) Service or mileage accumulation must be performed in a manner 
using good engineering judgment to obtain emission results 
representative of normal production vehicles. This service or mileage 
accumulation must be consistent with the new vehicle break-in 
instructions contained in the applicable vehicle owner's manual, if any.
    (2) The manufacturer shall accumulate service at a minimum rate of 
16 hours per engine or mileage at a minimum rate of 300 miles per 
vehicle during each 24-hour period, unless otherwise provided by the 
Administrator.
    (i) The first 24 hour period for service or mileage accumulation 
shall begin as soon as authorization checks, inspections and 
preparations are completed on each engine or vehicle.
    (ii) The minimum service or mileage accumulation rate does not apply 
on weekends or holidays.
    (iii) If the manufacturer's service or mileage accumulation target 
is less than the minimum rate specified (16 hours or 300 miles per day), 
then the minimum daily accumulation rate shall be equal to the 
manufacturer's

[[Page 713]]

service or mileage accumulation target.
    (3) Service or mileage accumulation shall be completed on a 
sufficient number of test engines or vehicles during consecutive 24-hour 
periods to assure that the number of engines or vehicles tested per day 
fulfills the requirements of paragraph (g) of this section.
    (d) The manufacturer shall not perform any maintenance on test 
vehicles or engines after selection for testing, nor shall the 
Administrator allow deletion of any test vehicle or engine from the test 
sequence, unless requested by the manufacturer, and approved by the 
Administrator before any test vehicle or engine maintenance or deletion.
    (e) The manufacturer shall expeditiously ship test engines or 
vehicles from the point of selection to the test facility. If the test 
facility is not located at or in close proximity to the point of 
selection, the manufacturer shall assure that test engines or vehicles 
arrive at the test facility within 24 hours of selection: Except, that 
the Administrator may approve more time based upon a request by the 
manufacturer accompanied by a satisfactory justification.
    (f) If an engine or vehicle cannot complete the service or mileage 
accumulation or emission test because of a malfunction, the manufacturer 
may request that the Administrator authorize the repair of that engine 
or vehicle or its deletion from the test sequence.
    (g) Whenever a manufacturer conducts testing pursuant to a test 
order issued under this subpart, the manufacturer shall notify the 
Administrator within one working day of receipt of the test order which 
test facility will be used to comply with the test order. If no test 
cells are available at a desired facility, the manufacturer must provide 
alternate testing capability satisfactory to the Administrator.
    (1) Heavy-duty engine manufacturers with projected sales for the 
United States market for that year of 30,000 or greater shall complete 
emission testing at their facility on a minimum of two engines per 24-
hour period, including each voided test and each diesel engine smoke 
test.
    (2) Heavy-duty engine manufacturers with projected sales for the 
United States market for that year of less than 30,000 shall complete 
emission testing at their facility on a minimum of one engine per 24-
hour period, including each voided test and each diesel engine smoke 
test.
    (3) Light-duty truck manufacturers shall complete emission testing 
at their facility on a minimum of four engines per 24-hour period, 
including each voided test.
    (4) The Administrator may approve a lower daily rate of conducting 
emission tests based upon a request by a satisfactory justification.
    (h) The manufacturer shall perform test engine or vehicle selection, 
shipping, preparation, service or mileage accumulation, and testing in 
such a manner as to assure that the audit is performed in an expeditious 
manner.
    (i) The manufacturer may retest any engines or vehicles tested 
during a Selective Enforcement Audit once a fail decision for the audit 
has been reached in accordance with Sec. 86.1010-84(d) based on the 
first test on each engine or vehicle: Except, that the Administrator may 
approve retesting at other times based upon a request by the 
manufacturer accompanied by a satisfactory justification. The 
manufacturer may test each engine or vehicle a total of three times. The 
manufacturer shall test each engine or vehicle the same number of times. 
The manufacturer may accumulate additional service or mileage before 
conducting a retest, subject to the provisions of paragraph (c) of this 
section.

warm-up for the CO, CO2, and NOX analyzers. (Power 
is normally left on infrared and chemiluminescent analyzers. When not in 
use, the chopper motors of the infrared analyzers are turned off and the 
phototube high voltage supply to the chemiluminescent analyzers is 
placed in the standby position.)
    (B) The manufacturer shall exercise care to prevent moisture from 
condensing in the sample collection bags.
    (viii) The manufacturer need not comply with Sec. 86.142, 
Sec. 86.155, or Sec. 86.1775 since the records required therein are 
provided under other provisions of this subpart K.
    (ix) If a manufacturer elects to perform the background 
determination procedure described in paragraph

[[Page 717]]

(a)(3)(xi) of this section in addition to performing the refueling 
emissions test procedure, the elapsed time between the initial and final 
FID readings shall be recorded, rounded to the nearest second rather 
than minute as described in Sec. 86.154-98(e)(8). In addition, the 
vehicle soak described in Sec. 86.153-98(e) shall be conducted with the 
windows and luggage compartment of the vehicle open.
    (x) The Administrator may elect to perform a seal test, described in 
Sec. 86.153-98(b), of both integrated and non-integrated systems instead 
of the full refueling test. When testing non-integrated systems, a 
manufacturer may conduct the canister purge described in Sec. 86.153-
98(b)(1) directly following the preconditioning drive described in 
Sec. 86.132-96(e) or directly following the exhaust emissions test 
described in Sec. 86.137-96.
    (xi) In addition to the refueling test, a manufacturer may elect to 
perform the following background emissions determination immediately 
prior to the refueling measurement procedure described in Sec. 86.154-
98, provided EPA is notified of this decision prior to the start of 
testing in an SEA.
    (A) The SHED shall be purged for several minutes immediately prior 
to the background determination. Warning: If at any time the 
concentration of hydrocarbons, of methanol, or of methanol and 
hydrocarbons exceeds 15,000 ppm C, the enclosure should be immediately 
purged. This concentration provides a 4:1 safety factor against the lean 
flammability limit.
    (B) The FID (or HFID) hydrocarbon analyzer shall be zeroed and 
spanned immediately prior to the background determination. If not 
already on, the enclosure mixing fan and the spilled fuel mixing blower 
shall be turned on at this time.
    (C) Place the vehicle in the SHED. The ambient temperature level 
encountered by the test vehicle during the entire background emissions 
determination shall be 80  deg.F 3  deg.F. The windows and 
luggage compartment of the vehicle must be open and the gas cap must be 
secured.
    (D) Seal the SHED. Immediately analyze the ambient concentration of 
hydrocarbons in the SHED and record. This is the initial background 
hydrocarbon concentration.
    (E) Soak the vehicle for ten minutes 1 minute.
    (F) The FID (or HFID) hydrocarbon analyzer shall be zeroed and 
spanned immediately prior to the end of the background determination.
    (G) Analyze the ambient concentration of hydrocarbons in the SHED 
and record. This is the final background hydrocarbon concentration.
    (H) The total hydrocarbon mass emitted during the background 
determination is calculated according to Sec. 86.156-98. To obtain a 
per-minute background emission rate, divide the total hydrocarbon mass 
calculated in this paragraph by the duration of the soak, rounded to the 
nearest second, described in paragraph (a)(3)(xi)(G) of this section.
    (I) The background emission rate is multiplied by the duration of 
the refueling measurement obtained in paragraph (a)(3)(ix) of this 
section. This number is then subtracted from the total grams of 
emissions calculated for the refueling test according to Sec. 86.156-
98(a) to obtain the adjusted value for total refueling emissions. The 
final results for comparison with the refueling emission standard shall 
be computed by dividing the adjusted value for total refueling mass 
emissions by the total gallons of fuel dispensed in the refueling test 
as described in Sec. 86.156-98(b).
    (xii) In addition to the requirements of subpart B of this part, the 
manufacturer shall prepare gasoline-fueled and methanol-fueled vehicles 
as follows prior to emission testing:
    (A) The manufacturer shall inspect the fuel system to ensure the 
absence of any leaks of liquid or vapor to the atmosphere by applying a 
pressure of 14.50.5 inches of water (3.60.1 Kpa) 
to the fuel system allowing the pressure to stabilize and isolating the 
fuel system from the pressure source. Following isolation of the fuel 
system, pressure must not drop more than 2.0 inches of water (0.5 Kpa) 
in five minutes. If required, the manufacturer shall perform corrective 
action in accordance with paragraph (d) of this section and report this 
action in accordance with Sec. 86.1009-2001(d).

[[Page 718]]

    (B) When performing this pressure check, the manufacturer shall 
exercise care to neither purge nor load the evaporative or refueling 
emission control systems.
    (C) The manufacturer may not modify the test vehicle's evaporative 
or refueling emission control systems by component addition, deletion, 
or substitution, except to comply with paragraph (a)(3)(ii) of this 
section if approved in advance by the Administrator.
    (4) When testing light-duty trucks, the following exceptions to the 
test procedures in subpart C of this part are applicable to Selective 
Enforcement Audit testing:
    (i) The manufacturer may measure the temperature of the test fuel at 
other than the approximate mid-volume of the fuel tank, as specified in 
Sec. 86.131-90(a), and may drain the test fuel from other than the 
lowest point of the fuel tank as specified in Sec. 86.131-90(b), 
provided an equivalent method is used. Equivalency documentation shall 
be maintained by the manufacturer and shall be made available to the 
Administrator upon request.
    (ii) In performing exhaust sample analysis under Sec. 86.140-94, the 
manufacturer shall exercise care to prevent moisture from condensing in 
the sample collection bags.
    (iii) The manufacturer need not comply with Sec. 86.142-90 since the 
records required therein are provided under other provisions of this 
subpart K.
    (iv) In addition to the requirements of subpart C of this part, the 
manufacturer shall prepare gasoline-fueled vehicles as follows prior to 
exhaust emission testing:
    (A) The manufacturer shall inspect the fuel system to ensure the 
absence of any leaks of liquid or vapor to the atmosphere by applying a 
pressure of 14.50.5 inches of water (3.60.1 Kpa) 
to the fuel system allowing the pressure to stabilize and isolating the 
fuel system from the pressure source. Following isolation of the fuel 
system, pressure must not drop more than 2.0 inches of water (0.5 Kpa) 
in five minutes. If required, the manufacturer shall perform corrective 
action in accordance with paragraph (d) of this section and report this 
action in accordance with Sec. 86.1009-2001(d).
    (B) When performing this pressure check, the manufacturer shall 
exercise care to neither purge nor load the evaporative or refueling 
emission control system.
    (C) The manufacturer shall not modify the test vehicle's evaporative 
or refueling emission control system by component addition, deletion, or 
substitution, except if approved in advance by the Administrator, to 
comply with paragraph (a)(4)(ii) of this section.
    (5) When testing light-duty trucks, the exceptions to the test 
procedures in subpart O of this part applicable to Selective Enforcement 
Audit testing are listed in paragraphs (a)(5) (i) and (ii) of this 
section.
    (i) The manufacturer need not comply with Sec. 86.1442, since the 
records required therein are provided under provisions of this subpart 
K.
    (ii) In addition to the requirements of subpart O of this part, the 
manufacturer must prepare vehicles as in paragraphs (a)(5)(ii) (A) 
through (C) of this section prior to exhaust emission testing.
    (A) The manufacturer must inspect the fuel system to insure the 
absence of any leaks of liquid or vapor to the atmosphere by applying a 
pressure of 14.50.5 inches of water (3.60.1 Kpa) 
to the fuel system, allowing the pressure to stabilize, and isolating 
the fuel system from the pressure source. Pressure must not drop more 
than 2.0 inches of water (0.5 Kpa) in five minutes. If required, the 
manufacturer performs corrective action in accordance with this section 
and must report this action in accordance with Sec. 86.1009-2001.
    (B) When performing this pressure check, the manufacturer must 
exercise care to neither purge nor load the evaporative or refueling 
emission control system.
    (C) The manufacturer may not modify the test vehicle's evaporative 
or refueling emission control system by component addition, deletion, or 
substitution.
    (b)(1) The manufacturer shall not adjust, repair, prepare, or modify 
the vehicles selected for testing and shall not perform any emission 
tests on vehicles selected for testing pursuant to the

[[Page 719]]

test order unless this adjustment repair, preparation, modification, 
and/or tests are documented in the manufacturer's vehicle assembly and 
inspection procedures and are actually performed or unless these 
adjustments and/or tests are required or permitted under this subpart or 
are approved in advance by the Administrator.
    (2) For 1984 and later model years the Administrator may adjust or 
cause to be adjusted any engine or vehicle parameter which the 
Administrator has determined to be subject to adjustment for 
certification, Selective Enforcement Audit testing, and Production 
Compliance Audit testing in accordance with Sec. 86.090-22(c)(1), to any 
setting within the physically adjustable range of that parameter, as 
determined by the Administrator in accordance with Sec. 86.090-
22(e)(3)(ii), prior to the performance of any tests. However, if the 
idle speed parameter is one which the Administrator has determined to be 
subject to adjustment, the Administrator shall not adjust it to a 
setting which causes a lower engine idle speed than will be possible 
within the physically adjustable range of the idle speed parameter if 
the manufacturer had accumulated 125 hours of service on the engine or 
4,000 miles on the vehicle under paragraph (c) of this section, all 
other parameters being identically adjusted for the purpose of 
comparison. The manufacturer may be requested to supply information to 
establish such an alternative minimum idle speed. The Administrator, in 
making or specifying such adjustments, will consider the effect of the 
deviation from the manufacturer's recommended setting on emissions 
performance characteristics as well as the likelihood that similar 
settings will occur on in-use heavy-duty engines or light-duty trucks. 
In determining likelihood, the Administrator will consider factors such 
as, but not limited to, the effect of the adjustment on engine or 
vehicle performance characteristics and surveillance information from 
similar in-use vehicles.
    (c) Prior to performing emission testing on an SEA test engine, the 
manufacturer may accumulate on each engine a number of hours of service 
equal to the greater of 125 hours or the number of hours the 
manufacturer accumulated during certification on the emission-data 
engine corresponding to the configuration specified in the test order. 
Prior to performing emission testing on an SEA test vehicle, the 
manufacturer may accumulate on each vehicle a number of miles equal to 
the greater of 4,000 miles, or the number of miles the manufacturer 
accumulated during certification on the emission-data vehicle 
corresponding to the configuration specified in the test order.
    (1) Service or mileage accumulation must be performed in a manner 
using good engineering judgment to obtain emission results 
representative of normal production vehicles. This service or mileage 
accumulation must be consistent with the new vehicle break-in 
instructions contained in the applicable vehicle owner's manual, if any.
    (2) The manufacturer shall accumulate service at a minimum rate of 
16 hours per engine or mileage at a minimum rate of 300 miles per 
vehicle during each 24-hour period, unless otherwise provided by the 
Administrator.
    (i) The first 24-hour period for service or mileage accumulation 
shall begin as soon as authorization checks, inspections and 
preparations are completed on each engine or vehicle.
    (ii) The minimum service or mileage accumulation rate does not apply 
on weekends or holidays.
    (iii) If the manufacturer's service or mileage accumulation target 
is less than the minimum rate specified (16 hours or 300 miles per day), 
then the minimum daily accumulation rate shall be equal to the 
manufacturer's service or mileage accumulation target.
    (3) Service or mileage accumulation shall be completed on a 
sufficient number of test engines or vehicles during consecutive 24-hour 
periods to assure that the number of engines or vehicles tested per day 
fulfills the requirements of paragraph (g) of this section.
    (d) The manufacturer shall not perform any maintenance on test 
vehicles or engines after selection for testing, nor shall the 
Administrator allow deletion of any test vehicle or engine from the test 
sequence, unless requested by the manufacturer, and approved by the

[[Page 720]]

Administrator before any test vehicle or engine maintenance or deletion.
    (e) The manufacturer shall expeditiously ship test engines or 
vehicles from the point of selection to the test facility. If the test 
facility is not located at or in close proximity to the point of 
selection, the manufacturer shall assure that the test engines or 
vehicles arrive at the test facility within 24 hours of selection: 
Except, that the Administrator may approve more time based upon a 
request by the manufacturer accompanied by a satisfactory justification.
    (f) If an engine or vehicle cannot complete the service or mileage 
accumulation or emission test because of a malfunction, the manufacturer 
may request that the Administrator authorize the repair of that engine 
or vehicle or its deletion from the test sequence.
    (g) Whenever the manufacturer conducts testing pursuant to a test 
order issued under this subpart, the manufacturer shall notify the 
Administrator within one working day of receipt of the test order, which 
test facility will be used to comply with the test order and the number 
of available test cells at that facility. If no test cells are available 
at the desired facility, the manufacturer must provide alternate testing 
capability satisfactory to the Administrator.
    (1) Heavy-duty engine manufacturers with projected sales for the 
United States market for that year of 30,000 or greater shall complete 
emission testing at their facility on a minimum of two engines per 24-
hour period, including each voided test and each diesel engine smoke 
test.
    (2) Heavy-duty engine manufacturers with projected sales for the 
United States market for that year of less than 30,000 shall complete 
emission testing at their facility on a minimum of one engine per 24-
hour period, including each voided test and each diesel engine smoke 
test.
    (3) Light-duty truck and heavy-duty vehicle manufacturers shall 
perform a combination of tests pursuant to paragraph (a) of this section 
so that a minimum of four tests are performed per 24 hour period, 
including voided tests, for each available test cell.
    (4) The Administrator may approve a longer period based upon a 
request by a manufacturer accompanied by satisfactory justification.
    (h) The manufacturer shall perform test engine or vehicle selection, 
shipping, preparation, service or mileage accumulation, and testing in 
such a manner as to assure that the audit is performed in an expeditious 
manner.
    (i) The manufacturer may retest any test vehicle or engine after a 
fail decision has been reached in accordance with Sec. 86.1010-2001(d) 
based on the first test on each vehicle or engine; except that the 
Administrator may approve retests at other times during the audit based 
upon a request by the manufacturer accompanied by a satisfactory 
justification. The manufacturer may test each vehicle or engine a total 
of three times. The manufacturer shall test each vehicle or engine the 
same number of times. The manufacturer may accumulate additional service 
or mileage before conducting retests, subject to the provisions of 
paragraph (c) of this section.

Sec. 86.1009-2001  Calculation and reporting of test results.

    (a) Initial test results are calculated following the Federal Test 
Procedure specified in Sec. 86.1008-2001(a). Rounding is done in 
accordance with ASTM E 29-67 (reapproved 1980) (as referenced in 
Sec. 86.094-28 (a)(4)(i)(B)(2)(ii) to the number of decimal places 
contained in the applicable emission standard expressed to one 
additional significant figure.
    (b) Final test results are calculated by summing the initial test 
results derived in paragraph (a) of this section for each test vehicle 
or engine, dividing by the number of times that specific test has been 
conducted on the vehicle or engine, and rounding to the same number of 
decimal places contained in the applicable standard expressed to one 
additional significant figure. Rounding is done in accordance with ASTM 
E 29-67 (reapproved 1980) (as referenced in Sec. 86.094-

    (c) Final deteriorated test results. (1) The final deteriorated test 
results for each light-duty truck, heavy-duty engine, or heavy-duty 
vehicle tested according to subpart B, C, D, I, M, N, P, or R of this 
part are calculated by first multiplying or adding, as appropriate, the 
final test results by or to the appropriate deterioration factor derived 
from the certification process for the engine or evaporative/refueling 
family and model year to which the selected configuration belongs, and 
then by multiplying by the appropriate reactivity adjustment factor, if 
applicable. For the purpose of this paragraph (c), if a multiplicative 
deterioration factor as computed during the certification process is 
less than one, that deterioration factor will be one. If an additive 
deterioration factor as computed during the certification process is 
less than zero, that deterioration factor will be zero.
    (2) Exceptions. There are no deterioration factors for light-duty 
truck emissions obtained during testing in accordance with subpart O of 
this part or with Sec. 86.146-96. Accordingly, for the CST and the fuel 
dispensing spitback test the term ``final deteriorated test results'' 
means the final test results derived in paragraph (b) of this section 
for each test vehicle.

Sec. 86.1010-96  Compliance with acceptable quality level and passing and
                failing criteria for Selective Enforcement Audits.

    (a) The prescribed acceptable quality level is 40 percent.
    (b) A failed engine or vehicle is one whose final deteriorated test 
results pursuant to Sec. 86.1009(c), for one or more of the applicable 
pollutants, including fuel spitback, exceed the applicable emission 
standard or compliance level. For the CST as described in subpart O of 
this part, a vehicle fail determination is made if the final 
deteriorated test results for HC and/or CO emissions from any CST exceed 
the applicable emission standard.
    (c) Pass/fail criteria. (1) The manufacturer must test heavy-duty 
engines, heavy duty vehicles, or light-duty trucks comprising the test 
sample until a pass decision is reached for all pollutants, or a fail 
decision is reached for one pollutant. A pass decision is

[[Page 725]]

reached when the cumulative number of failed engines or vehicles, as 
defined in paragraph (b) of this section, for each pollutant is less 
than or equal to the pass decision number appropriate to the cumulative 
number of engines or vehicles tested. A fail decision is reached when 
the cumulative number of failed engines or vehicles for one or more 
pollutants is greater than or equal to the fail decision number 
appropriate to the cumulative number of engines or vehicles tested. The 
pass and fail decision numbers associated with the cumulative number of 
engines or vehicles tested are determined by use of the tables in 
appendix X to this part appropriate to the projected sales as made by 
the heavy-duty engine or heavy-duty vehicle manufacturer in its 
Application for Certification, or as made by the light-duty truck 
manufacturer as made in its report submitted under Sec. 600.207-80(a)(2) 
of this chapter (Automobile Fuel Economy Regulations). In the tables in 
appendix X to this part, sampling plan ``stage'' refers to the 
cumulative number of engines or vehicles tested. Once a pass or fail 
decision has been made for a particular pollutant, the number of engines 
or vehicles whose final deteriorated test results exceed the emission 
standard or compliance level, if applicable, for that pollutant may not 
be considered any further for purposes of the audit.
    (2) CST criteria only. A pass/fail decision is made based on the CST 
in its entirety rather than on a per pollutant basis. The manufacturer 
must test vehicles comprising the test sample until a pass or fail 
decision is reached for the CST. A pass decision is reached when the 
cumulative number of failed vehicles, as defined in paragraph (b) of 
this section, based on CST testing, is less than or equal to the pass 
decision number appropriate to the cumulative number of vehicles tested. 
A fail decision is reached when the cumulative number of failed vehicles 
based on CST testing is greater than or equal to the fail decision 
number appropriate to the cumulative number of vehicles tested. The pass 
and fail decision numbers associated with the cumulative number of 
vehicles tested are determined by use of the tables in appendix X to 
this part appropriate to the projected sales as made by the light-duty 
truck manufacturer as made in its report submitted under Sec. 600.207-
80(a)(2) of this chapter (Automobile Fuel Economy Regulations). In the 
tables in appendix X to this part, sampling plan ``stage'' refers to the 
cumulative number of engines or vehicles tested. Once a pass or fail 
decision has been made based on CST testing, the number of vehicles 
whose final deteriorated test results exceed any of the emission 
standards for any CST may not be considered any further for purposes of 
the audit.
    (d) Passing or failing of a SEA occurs when the decision is made on 
the last engine or vehicle required to make a decision under paragraph 
(c) of this section.
    (e) The Administrator may terminate testing earlier than required in 
paragraph (c) of this section.
[58 FR 58426, Nov. 1, 1993]



Sec. 86.1010-2001  Compliance with acceptable quality level and passing and
                failing criteria for Selective Enforcement Audits.

    (a) The prescribed acceptable quality level is 40 percent.
    (b) A failed vehicle or engine is one whose final deteriorated test 
results pursuant to Sec. 86.1009-2001(c) exceed at least one of the 
applicable emission standards associated with the test procedures 
pursuant to Sec. 86.1008-2001(a).
    (c)(1) Pass/fail criteria. The manufacturer shall test light-duty 
trucks, heavy-duty engines, or heavy-duty vehicles comprising the test 
sample until a pass decision is reached for all of the pollutants 
associated with all of the test procedures pursuant to Sec. 86.1008-
2001(a) or a fail decision is reached for one of these pollutants. A 
pass decision is reached when the cumulative number of failed vehicles 
or engines, as defined in paragraph (b) of this section, for each 
pollutant is less than or equal to the fail decision number appropriate 
to the cumulative number of vehicles tested. A fail decision is reached 
when the cumulative number of failed vehicles or engines for one 
pollutant is greater than or equal to the fail decision number 
appropriate to the cumulative number of vehicles tested. The

[[Page 726]]

pass and fail decision numbers associated with the cumulative number of 
vehicles tested are determined by use of the tables in appendix X of 
this part appropriate to the projected sales as made by the heavy-duty 
engine or heavy-duty vehicle manufacturer in its Application for 
Certification, or as made by the light-duty truck manufacturer in its 
report submitted under Sec. 600.207-80(a)(2) of this chapter (Automobile 
Fuel Economy Regulations). In the tables in appendix X of this part, 
sampling plan ``stage'' refers to the cumulative number of vehicles or 
engines tested. Once a pass decision has been made for a particular 
pollutant associated with a particular test procedure pursuant to 
Sec. 86.1008-2001(a), the number of vehicles or engines whose final 
deteriorated test results exceed the emission standard for that 
pollutant may not be considered any further for purposes of the audit.
    (2) CST criteria only. For CST testing pursuant to subpart O, a pass 
or fail decision is determined according to the pass/fail criteria 
described in paragraph (c)(1) of this section, except that for each 
vehicle, the CST in its entirety is considered one pollutant.
    (d) Passing or failing of an SEA audit occurs when the decision is 
made on the last vehicle or engine required to make a decision under 
paragraph (c) of this section.
    (e) The Administrator may terminate testing earlier than required in 
paragraph (c) of this section.
[59 FR 16309, Apr. 6, 1994]



Sec. 86.1012-84  Suspension and revocation of certificates of conformity.

    (a) The certificate of conformity is suspended with respect to any 
engine or vehicle failing pursuant to paragraph (b) of Sec. 86.1010-84 
effective from the time that testing of that engine or vehicle is 
completed.
    (b) The Administrator may suspend the certificate of conformity for 
a configuration which does not pass an SEA, pursuant to paragraph 
Sec. 86.1010-84(c), based on the first test or all tests conducted on 
each engine or vehicle. This suspension will not occur before ten days 
after failure to pass the audit.
    (c)-(d) [Reserved]
    (e) If the results of testing pursuant to these regulations indicate 
that engines or vehicles of a particular configuration produced at one 
plant of a manufacturer do not conform to the regulations with respect 
to which the certificate of conformity was issued, the Administrator may 
suspend the certificate of conformity with respect to that configuration 
for engines or vehicles manufactured by the manufacturer at all other 
plants.
    (f) [Reserved]
    (g) The Administrator shall notify the manufacturer in writing of 
any suspension or revocation of a certificate of conformity in whole or 
in part: Except, That the certificate is immediately suspended with 
respect to any failed engines or vehicles as provided for in paragraph 
(a) of this section.
    (h) The Administrator may revoke a certificate of conformity for a 
configuration when the certificate has been suspended pursuant to 
paragraph (b), (c) or (e) of this section if the proposed remedy for the 
nonconformity, as reported by the manufacturer to the Administrator, is 
one requiring a design change or changes to the engine and/or emission 
control system as described in the Application for Certification of the 
affected configuration.
    (i) Once a certificate has been suspended for a failed engine or 
vehicle as provided for in paragraph (a) of this section, the 
manufacturer shall take the following actions:
    (1) Before the certificate is reinstated for that failed engine or 
vehicle,
    (i) Remedy the nonconformity, and
    (ii) Demonstrate that the engine or vehicle conforms to applicable 
standards or compliance levels by retesting the engine or vehicle in 
accordance with these regulations; and
    (2) Submit a written report to the Administrator, after successful 
completion of testing on the failed engine or vehicle, which contains a 
description of the remedy and test results for each engine or vehicle in 
addition to other information that may be required by this regulation.
    (j) Once a certificate for a failed configuration has been suspended 
pursuant to paragraph (b), (c) or (e) of this section, the manufacturer 
shall take the

[[Page 727]]

following actions before the Administrator will consider reinstating the 
certificate:
    (1) Submit a written report to the Administrator which identifies 
the reason for the noncompliance of the engines or vehicles, describes 
the proposed remedy, including a description of any proposed quality 
control and/or quality assurance measures to be taken by the 
manufacturer to prevent future occurrences of the problem, and states 
the date on which the remedies will be implemented; and
    (2) Demonstrate that the engine or vehicle configuration for which 
the certificate of conformity has been suspended does in fact comply 
with these regulations by testing engines or vehicles selected from 
normal production runs of that engine or vehicle configuration, at the 
plant(s) or associated storage facilities specified by the 
Administrator, in accordance with the conditions specified in the 
initial test order. If the manufacturer elects to continue testing 
individual engines or vehicles after suspension of a certificate, the 
certificate is reinstated for any engine or vehicle actually determined 
to be in conformance with the applicable standards or compliance levels 
through testing in accordance with the applicable test procedures, 
provided that the Administrator has not revoked the certificate pursuant 
to paragraph (h) of this section.
    (k) Once the certificate has been revoked for a configuration and 
the manufacturer desires to continue introduction into commerce of a 
modified version of that configuration, the following actions shall be 
taken before the Administrator may consider issuing a certificate for 
that modified configuration:
    (1) If the Administrator determines that the proposed change(s) in 
engine or vehicle design may have an effect on emission performance 
deterioration or, in the case of light-duty trucks, on fuel economy, the 
Administrator shall notify the manufacturer, within five (5) working 
days after receipt of the report in paragraph (h) of this section, 
whether subsequent testing under this subpart will be sufficient to 
evaluate the proposed change or changes or whether additional testing 
will be required; and
    (2) After implementing the change or changes intended to remedy the 
nonconformity, the manufacturer shall demonstrate that the modified 
engine or vehicle configuration does in fact conform with these 
regulations by testing engines or vehicles selected from normal 
production runs of that modified engine or vehicle configuration in 
accordance with the conditions specified in the initial test order. This 
testing will be considered by the Administrator to satisfy the testing 
requirements of Sec. 86.078-32 or Sec. 86.079-33 if the Administrator 
has so notifed the manufacturer. If the subsequent audit results in 
passing of the audit at the level of the standards or compliance levels, 
if applicable, the Administrator shall reissue or amend the certificate, 
as the case may be, to include that configuration, provided that the 
manufacturer has satisfied the testing requirements of paragraph (k)(1) 
of this section. If the subsequent audit is failed, the revocation 
remains in effect. Any design change approvals under this subpart are 
limited to the configuration affected by the test order.
    (l) At any time subsequent to an initial suspension of a certificate 
of conformity for a test engine or vehicle pursuant to paragraph (a) of 
this section, but not later than fifteen (15) days or such other period 
as may be allowed by the Administrator after notification of the 
Administrator's decision to suspend or revoke a certificate of 
conformity in whole or in part pursuant to paragraphs (b), (c), (d), 
(e), or (h) of this section, a manufacturer may request a hearing as to 
whether the tests have been properly conducted or any sampling methods 
have been properly applied.
    (m) After the Administrator suspends or revokes a certificate of 
conformity pursuant to this section or notifies a manufacturer of his 
intent to suspend, revoke or void a certificate of conformity under 
paragraph Sec. 86.087-30(e), and prior to the commencement of a hearing 
under Sec. 86.1014-84, if the manufacturer demonstrates to the 
Administrator's satisfaction that the decision to suspend, revoke or 
void the certificate was based on erroneous information,

[[Page 728]]

the Administrator shall reinstate the certificate.
    (n) To permit a manufacturer to avoid storing non-test engines or 
vehicles when conducting an audit of a configuration subsequent to 
suspension or revocation of the certificate of conformity for that 
configuration resulting from failure of an SEA, it may request that the 
Administrator conditionally reinstate the certificate for that 
configuration. The Administrator may reinstate the certificate subject 
to the condition that the manufacturer consents to recall all engines or 
vehicles of that configuration produced from the time the certificate is 
conditionally reinstated if the configuration fails the subsequent audit 
at the level of the standard and to remedy any nonconformity at no 
expense to the owner.

the certificate of conformity for a configuration that does not pass a 
Selective Enforcement Audit pursuant to Sec. 86.1010(c) based on the 
first test, or all tests, conducted on each engine or vehicle. This 
suspension will not occur before ten days after failure to pass the 
audit.
    (2) California Assembly-Line Quality Audit Testing. The 
Administrator may suspend the certificate of conformity for a 50-state 
engine family or configuration tested in accordance with procedures 
prescribed under Sec. 86.1008 that the Executive Officer has determined 
to be in non-compliance with one or more applicable pollutants based on 
Chapter 1 or Chapter 2 of the California Regulatory Requirements 
Applicable to the National Low Emission Vehicle Program (October, 1996), 
if the results of vehicle testing conducted by the manufacturer do not 
meet the acceptable quality level criteria pursuant to Sec. 86.1010. The 
California Regulatory Requirements Applicable to the National Low 
Emission Vehicle Program (October, 1996) are incorporated by reference 
(see Sec. 86.1). A vehicle that is tested by the manufacturer in 
accordance with procedures prescribed under Sec. 86.1008 and determined 
to be a failing vehicle pursuant to Chapter 1 or Chapter 2 of the 
California Regulatory Requirements Applicable to the National Low 
Emission Vehicle Program (October, 1996) will be treated as a failed 
vehicle described in Sec. 86.1010(b), unless the manufacturer can show 
that the vehicle would not be considered a failed vehicle using the test 
procedures specified in Sec. 86.1008. This suspension will not occur 
before ten days after the manufacturer receives written notification 
that the Administrator has determined the 50-state engine family or 
configuration exceeds one or more applicable federal standards.
    (c)(1) Selective Enforcement Audits. If the results of engine or 
vehicle testing pursuant to the requirements of this subpart indicate 
that engines or vehicles of a particular configuration produced at more

will be sufficient to evaluate the proposed change(s) or whether 
additional testing will be required.
    (2) After implementing the change(s) intended to remedy the 
nonconformity, the manufacturer shall demonstrate:
    (i) If the certificate was revoked pursuant to paragraph (e)(1) of 
this section, that the modified configuration does in fact conform with 
the requirements of this subpart by testing engines or vehicles selected 
from normal production runs of that modified configuration in accordance 
with the conditions specified in the initial test order pursuant to 
Sec. 86.1003. The Administrator shall consider this testing to satisfy 
the testing requirements of Sec. 86.079-32 or Sec. 86.079-33 if the 
Administrator had so notified the manufacturer. If the subsequent 
testing results in a pass decision pursuant to the criteria in 
Sec. 86.1010(c), the Administrator shall reissue or amend the 
certificate, if necessary, to include that configuration: Provided, that 
the manufacturer has satisfied the testing requirements specified in 
paragraph (h)(1) of this section. If the subsequent audit results in a

revocation remains in effect. Any design change approvals under this 
subpart are limited to the modification of the configuration specified 
by the test order.
    (ii) If the certificate was revoked pursuant to paragraph (e)(2) of 
this section, that the modified engine family or configuration does in 
fact conform with the requirements of this subpart by testing vehicles 
selected from normal production runs of that modified engine family or 
configuration in accordance with the conditions specified in a test 
order pursuant to Sec. 86.1003. The Administrator shall consider this 
testing to satisfy the testing requirements of Sec. 86.079-32 or 
Sec. 86.079-33 if the Administrator had so notified the manufacturer. If 
the subsequent testing results in a pass decision pursuant to 
Sec. 86.1010(c), the Administrator shall reissue or amend the 
certificate as necessary: Provided, that the manufacturer has satisfied 
the testing requirements specified in paragraph (h)(1) of this section. 
If the subsequent testing results in a fail decision pursuant to 
Sec. 86.1010(c), the revocation remains in effect. Any design change 
approvals under this subpart are limited to the modification of the 
engine family or configuration specified by the test order.
    (3) In cases where the Administrator has revoked a certificate of 
conformity for a 50-state engine family or configuration pursuant to 
paragraph (e)(2) of this section, manufacturers may request in writing 
that the Administrator reissue the certificate for an engine family or 
configuration when, in lieu of the actions described in paragraphs (h) 
(1) and (2) of this section, the manufacturer has complied with Chapter 
3 of the California Regulatory Requirements Applicable to the National 
Low Emission Vehicle Program (October, 1996), provided an Executive 
Order is in place for the engine family

conformity pursuant to this section or notifies a manufacturer of his 
intent to suspend, revoke or void a certificate of conformity under 
paragraph Sec. 86.087-30(e), and prior to the commencement of a hearing 
under Sec. 86.1014, if the manufacturer demonstrates to the 
Administrator's satisfaction that the decision to suspend, revoke or 
void the certificate was based on erroneous information, the 
Administrator shall reinstate the certificate.
    (n) To permit a manufacturer to avoid storing non-test engines or 
vehicles when conducting testing of an engine family or configuration 
subsequent to suspension or revocation of the certificate of conformity 
for that engine family or configuration pursuant to paragraph (b), (c), 
or (e) of this section, the manufacturer may request that the 
Administrator conditionally reinstate the certificate for that engine 
family or configuration. The Administrator may reinstate the certificate 
subject to the condition that the manufacturer consents to recall all 
engines or vehicles of that engine family or configuration produced from 
the time the certificate is conditionally reinstated if the engine 
family or configuration fails the subsequent testing and to remedy any 
nonconformity at no expense to the owner.
[62 FR 31240, June 6, 1997]



Sec. 86.1014-84  Hearings on suspension, revocation and voiding of certificate of conformity.

    (a) Applicability. The procedures prescribed by this section apply 
whenever a manufacturer requests a hearing pursuant to Sec. 86.087-30 
(e)(6)(i), Sec. 86.087-30(e)(7), or Sec. 86.1012-84(1).
    (b) Definitions. The following definitions are applicable to this 
section:
    (1) Hearing Clerk shall mean the Hearing Clerk of the Environmental 
Protection Agency.
    (2) Manufacturer means a manufacturer contesting a suspension or 
revocation order directed at the manufacturer.
    (3) Party means the Agency and the manufacturer.
    (4) Presiding Officer means an Administrative Law Judge appointed 
pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 3105 (see also 5 CFR part 930 as amended).
    (5) Environmental Appeals Board shall mean the Board within the 
Agency described in Sec. 1.25 of this title. The Administrator delegates 
authority to the Environmental Appeals Board to issue final decisions in 
appeals filed under this subpart. Appeals directed to the Administrator, 
rather than to the Environmental Appeals Board, will not be considered. 
This delegation of authority to the Environmental Appeals Board does not 
preclude the Environmental Appeals Board from referring an appeal or a 
motion filed under this subpart to the Administrator for decision when 
the Environmental Appeals Board, in its discretion, deems it appropriate 
to do so. When an appeal or motion is referred to the Administrator, all 
parties shall be so notified and the rules in this part referring to the 
Environmental Appeals Board shall be interpreted as referring to the 
Administrator.
    (c) Request for public hearing. (1) If the manufacturer disagrees 
with the Administrator's decision to suspend, revoke or void a 
certificate or disputes the basis for an automatic suspension pursuant 
to Sec. 86.1012-84(a), the manufacturer may request a public hearing as 
described in this section. The manufacturer shall file with the 
Administrator a request for this hearing not later than fifteen (15) 
days after the

[[Page 732]]

Administrator's notification of his decision to suspend or revoke unless 
otherwise specified by the Administrator. The manufacturer shall 
simultaneously serve two copies of this request upon the Director of the 
Manufacturers Operations Division and file two copies with the Hearing 
Clerk. Failure of the manufacturer to request a hearing within the time 
provided constitutes a waiver of the right to a hearing. Subsequent to 
the expiration of the period for requesting a hearing as of right, the 
Administrator may, in his discretion and for good cause shown, grant the 
manufacturer a hearing to contest the suspension or revocation.
    (2) A manufacturer shall include in the request for a public 
hearing--
    (i) A statement as to which engine or vehicle configuration is to be 
the subject of the hearing;
    (ii) A concise statement of the issues to be raised by the 
manufacturer at the hearing: Provided, however, That in the case of the 
hearing requested under Sec. 86.1012-84(1), the hearing is restricted to 
the following issues:
    (A) Whether tests have been properly conducted, specifically, 
Whether the tests were conducted in accordance with applicable 
regulations under this part and whether test equipment was properly 
calibrated and functioning; and
    (B) Whether sampling plans have been properly applied, specifically, 
whether sampling procedures specified in appendix X were followed and 
whether there exists a basis for distinguishing engines or vehicles 
produced at plants other than the one from which engines or vehicles 
were selected for testing which would invalidate the Administrator's 
decision under Sec. 86.1012-84(e);
    (iii) A statement specifying reasons why the manufacturer believes 
it will prevail on the merits of each of the issues raised; and
    (iv) A summary of the evidence which supports the manufacturer's 
position on each of the issues raised.
    (3) A copy of all requests for public hearings will be kept on file 
in the Office of the Hearing Clerk and will be made available to the 
public during Agency business hours.
    (d) Summary decision. (1) In the case of a hearing requested under 
Sec. 86.1012-84(1), when it clearly appears from the data and other 
information contained in the request for a hearing that there is no 
genuine and substantial question of fact with respect to the issues 
specified in Sec. 86.1014-84(c)(2)(ii), the Administrator shall enter an 
order denying the request for a hearing and reaffirming the original 
decision to suspend or revoke a certificate of conformity, if this 
decision has been made pursuant to Sec. 86.1012-84(g) at any time prior 
to the decision to deny the request for a hearing.
    (2) In the case of a hearing requested under Sec. 86.087-
30(e)(6)(i), to challenge a proposed suspension of a certificate of 
conformity for the reasons specified in Sec. 86.087-30(e)(1)(i) or 
(e)(1)(ii), when it clearly appears from the data and other information 
contained in the request for the hearing that there is no genuine and 
substantial question of fact with respect to the issue of whether the 
refusal to comply with the provisions of a test order or any other 
requirement of Sec. 86.1003-84 was caused by conditions and 
circumstances outside the control of the manufacturer, the Administrator 
shall enter an order denying the request for a hearing and suspending 
the certificate of conformity.
    (3) Any order issued under paragraph (d) (1) or (2) of this section 
has the force and effect of a final decision of the Administrator, as 
issued pursuant to paragraph (w)(4) of this section.
    (4) If the Administrator determines that a genuine and substantial 
question of fact does exist with respect to any of the issues referred 
to in paragraphs (d) (1) and (2) of this section, he shall grant the 
request for a hearing and publish a notice of public hearing in 
accordance with paragraph (h) of this section.
    (e) Filing and service. (1) An original and two copies of all 
documents or papers required or permitted to be filed pursuant to this 
section must be filed with the Hearing Clerk. Filing is considered 
timely if mailed, as determined by the postmark, to the Hearing Clerk 
within the time allowed by this section. If filing is to be accomplished 
by mailing, the documents must be sent

[[Page 733]]

to the address set forth in the notice of public hearing as described in 
paragraph (h) of this section.
    (2) To the maximum extent possible, testimony will be presented in 
written form. Copies of written testimony will be served upon all 
parties as soon as practicable prior to the start of the hearing. A 
certificate of service will be provided on or accompany each document or 
paper filed with the Hearing Clerk. Documents to be served upon the 
Director of the Manufacturers Operations Division must be sent by 
registered mail to:

Director, Manufacturers Operations Division, U.S. Environmental 
Protection Agency, EN-340, 401 M Street S.W., Washington, D.C. 20460.


Service by registered mail is complete upon mailing.
    (f) Time. (1) In computing any period of time prescribed or allowed 
by this section, except as otherwise provided, the day of the act or 
event from which the designated period of time begins to run is not 
included. Saturdays, Sundays, and Federal legal holidays are included in 
computing the period allowed for the filing of any document or paper, 
except that when the period expires on a Saturday, Sunday, or Federal 
legal holiday, the period is extended to include the next following 
business day.
    (2) A prescribed period of time within which a party is required or 
permitted to do an act is computed from the time of service, except that 
when service is accomplished by mail, three days will be added to the 
prescribed period.
    (g) Consolidation. The Administrator or the Presiding Officer in his 
discretion may consolidate two or more proceedings to be held under this 
section for the purpose of resolving one or more issues whenever it 
appears that consolidation will expedite or simplify consideration of 
these issues. Consolidation does not affect the right of any party to 
raise issues that could have been raised if consolidation had not 
occurred.
    (h) Notice of public hearings. Notice of a public hearing under this 
section is given by publication in the Federal Register and by such 
other means as the Administrator finds appropriate to provide notice to 
the public. To the extent possible hearings under this section will be 
scheduled to commence within fourteen (14) days of receipt of the 
application in paragraph (c) of this section.
    (i) Amicus curiae. Persons not parties to the proceeding wishing to 
file briefs may do so by leave of the Presiding Officer granted on 
motion. A motion for leave must identify the interest of the applicant 
and state the reasons why the proposed amicus brief is desirable.
    (j) Presiding Officer. The Presiding Officer shall conduct a fair 
and impartial hearing in accordance with 5 U.S.C. sections 554, 556 and 
557 and take all necessary action to avoid delay in the disposition of 
the proceedings and to maintain order. He shall have all power 
consistent with Agency rule and with the Administrative Procedure Act 
necessary to this end, including the power:
    (1) To administer oaths and affirmations;
    (2) To rule upon offers of proof and exclude irrelevant or 
repetitious material;
    (3) To regulate the course of the hearings and the conduct of the 
parties and their counsel therein;
    (4) To hold conferences for simplification of the issues or any 
other proper purpose;
    (5) To consider and rule upon all procedural and other motions 
appropriate to these proceedings;
    (6) To require the submission of direct testimony in written form 
with or without affidavit whenever, in his opinion, oral testimony is 
not necessary for full and true disclosure of the facts;
    (7) To enforce agreements and orders requiring access as authorized 
by law;
    (8) To require the filing of briefs on any matter on which he is 
required to rule;
    (9) To require any party or any witness, during the course of the 
hearing, to state his position on any issue;
    (10) To take or cause depositions to be taken whenever the ends of 
justice would be served thereby;
    (11) To make decisions or recommend decisions to resolve the 
disputed issues on the record of the hearing; and
    (12) To issue, upon good cause shown, protective orders as described 
in paragraph (n) of this section.
    (k) Conferences. (1) The Presiding Officer may hold conferences 
prior to or

[[Page 734]]

during any hearing. The Presiding Officer shall direct the Hearing Clerk 
to notify all parties of the time and location of any conference. At the 
discretion of the Presiding Officer, persons other than parties may 
attend. At a conference the Presiding Officer may:
    (i) Obtain stipulations and admissions, receive requests, order 
depositions to be taken, identify disputed issues of fact and law, and 
require or allow the submission of written testimony from any witness or 
party;
    (ii) Set a hearing schedule for as many of the following as he 
considers necessary:
    (A) Oral and written statements;
    (B) Submission of written direct testimony as required or authorized 
by the Presiding Officer;
    (C) Oral direct and cross-examination of a witness where necessary 
as prescribed in paragraph (p) of this section; and
    (D) Oral argument, if appropriate;
    (iii) Identify matters of which official notice may be taken;
    (iv) Consider limitation of the number of expert and other 
witnesses;
    (v) Consider the procedure to be followed at the hearing; and
    (vi) Consider any other matter that may expedite the hearing or aid 
in the disposition of the issue.
    (2) The Presiding Officer shall summarize in writing the results of 
any conference, including all stipulations, if not transcribed, and 
shall make the summary part of the record.
    (l) Primary discovery (exchange of witness lists and documents). (1) 
At a prehearing conference or within some reasonable time set by the 
Presiding Officer prior to the hearing, each party shall make available 
to the other parties the names of the expert and other witnesses the 
party expects to call, together with a brief summary of their expected 
testimony and a list of all documents and exhibits which the party 
expects to introduce into evidence. Thereafter, witnesses, documents, or 
exhibits may be added and summaries of expected testimony amended upon 
motion by a party.
    (2) The Presiding Officer, may, upon motion by a party or other 
person, and for good cause shown, by order:
    (i) Restrict or defer disclosure by a party of the name of a witness 
or a narrative summary of the expected testimony of a witness; and
    (ii) Prescribe other appropriate measures to protect a witness.
    (3) Any party affected by an action in paragraph (l)(2) of this 
section shall have an adequate opportunity, once he learns the name of a 
witness and obtains the narrative summary of his expected testimony, to 
prepare for the presentation of his case.
    (m) Other discovery. (1) Except as provided by paragraph (m)(1) of 
this section, further discovery, under this paragraph is permitted only 
upon determination by the Presiding Officer:
    (i) That this discovery will not in any way unreasonably delay the 
proceeding;
    (ii) That the information to be obtained is not obtainable 
voluntarily; and
    (iii) That the information has significant probative value. The 
Presiding Officer shall be guided by the procedures set forth in the 
Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, where practicable, and the precedents 
thereunder, except that no discovery will be undertaken except upon 
order of the Presiding Officer or upon agreement of the parties.
    (2) The Presiding Officer shall order depositions upon oral 
questions only upon a showing of good cause and upon a finding that:
    (i) The information sought cannot be obtained by alternative 
methods; or
    (ii) There is a substantial reason to believe that relevant and 
probative evidence may otherwise not be preserved for presentation by a 
witness at the hearing.
    (3) Any party to the proceeding desiring an order of discovery shall 
make a motion or motions therefor. The motion must include:
    (i) The circumstances warranting the taking of the discovery;
    (ii) The nature of the information expected to be discovered; and
    (iii) The proposed time and place where it will be taken. If the 
Presiding Officer determines the motion should be granted, he shall 
issue an order for the taking of the discovery together with the 
conditions and terms thereof.

[[Page 735]]

    (4) Failure to comply with an order issued pursuant to this 
paragraph may lead to the inference that the information to be 
discovered would be adverse to the person or party from whom the 
information was sought.
    (n) Protective orders, in camera proceedings. (1) Upon motion by a 
part or by the person from whom discovery is sought, and upon a showing 
by the movant that the disclosure of the information to be discovered, 
or a particular part thereof (other than emission data), would result in 
methods or processes entitled to protection as trade secrets of the 
person being divulged, the Presiding Officer may enter a protective 
order with respect to this material. Any protective order will contain 
terms governing the treatment of the information which are appropriate 
under the circumstances to prevent disclosure outside the hearing: 
Provided, That the order states that the material will be filed 
separately from other evidence and exhibits in the hearing. Disclosure 
is limited to parties to the hearing, their counsel and relevant 
technical consultants, and authorized representatives of the United 
States concerned with carrying out the Act. Except in the case of the 
government, disclosure may be limited to counsel for parties who shall 
not disclose such information to the parties themselves. Except in the 
case of the government, disclosure to a party or his counsel is 
conditioned on execution of a sworn statement that no disclosure of the 
information will be made to persons not entitled to receive it under the 
terms of the protective order. (This provision is not necessary where 
government employees are concerned because disclosure by them is subject 
to the terms of 18 U.S.C. 1905.)
    (2)(i) A party or person seeking a protective order may be permitted 
to make all or part of the required showing in camera. A record will be 
made of the in camera proceedings. If the Presiding Officer enters a 
protective order following a showing in camera, the record of the 
showing will be sealed and preserved and made available to the Agency or 
court in the event of appeal.
    (ii) Attendance at any in camera proceeding may be limited to the 
Presiding Officer, the Agency, and the person or party seeking the 
protective order.
    (3) Any party, subject to the terms and conditions of any protective 
order issues pursuant to paragraph (n)(1) of this section, desiring for 
the presentation of his case to make use of any in camera documents or 
testimony, shall make application to the Presiding Officer by motion 
setting forth the justification therefor. The Presiding Officer, in 
granting this motion, shall enter an order protecting the rights of the 
affected persons and parties and preventing unnecessary disclosure of 
this information, including the presentation of the information and oral 
testimony and cross-examination concerning it in executive session, as 
in his discretion is necessary and practicable.
    (4) In the submittal of proposed findings, briefs, or other papers, 
counsel for all parties shall make a good faith attempt to refrain from 
disclosing the specific details of in camera documents and testimony. 
This shall not preclude references in these proposed findings, briefs, 
or other papers to the documents or testimony, including generalized 
statements based on their contents. To the extent that counsel considers 
it necessary to include specific details in their presentations, these 
details will be incorporated in separate proposed findings, briefs, or 
other paper marked ``confidential'', and wil become part of the in 
camera record.
    (o) Motions. (1) All motions, except those made orally during the 
course of the hearing, must be in writing and state with particularity 
the grounds therefor, set forth the relief or order sought, and be filed 
with the Hearing Clerk and served upon all parties.
    (2) Within the time fixed by the Environmental Appeals Board or the 
Presiding Officer, as appropriate, any party may serve and file an 
answer to the motion. The movant shall, if requested by the 
Environmental Appeals Board or the Presiding Officer, as appropriate, 
serve and file reply papers within the time set by the request.
    (3) The Presiding Officer shall rule upon all motions filed or made 
prior to the filing of his decision or accelerated decision, as 
appropriate. The Environmental Appeals Board shall rule upon

[[Page 736]]

all motions filed prior to the appointment of a Presiding Officer and 
all motions filed after the filing of the decision of the Presiding 
Officer or accelerated decision. Oral argument of motions will be 
permitted only if the Presiding Officer or the Environmental Appeals 
Board, as appropriate, considers it necessary.
    (p) Evidence. (1) The official transcripts and exhibits, together 
with all papers and requests filed in the proceeding, consitute the 
record. Immaterial or irrelevant part of an admissible document will be 
segregated and excluded so far as practicable. Documents or parts 
thereof subject to a protective order under pargarph (n) of this section 
wil be segregated. Evidence may be received at the hearing even though 
inadmissible under the rules of evidence applicable to judicial 
proceedings. The weight to be given evidence will be determined by its 
reliability and probative value.
    (2) The Presiding Officer shall allow the parties to examine and 
cross-examine a witness to the extent that this examination and cross-
examination is necessary for a full and true disclosure of the facts.
    (3) Ruling of the Presiding Officer on the admissibility of 
evidence, the propriety of examination and cross-examination, and other 
procedural matters will appear in the record.
    (4) Parties shall automatically be presumed to have taken exception 
to an adverse ruling.
    (q) Record. (1) Hearings will be stenographically reported and 
transcribed and the original transcripts will be part of the record and 
the sole official transcript. Copies of the record will be filed with 
the Hearing Clerk and made available during Agency business hours for 
public inspection. Any thereof, except as provided in paragraph (n) of 
this section, shall be entitled to the same upon payment of the cost 
thereof.
    (2) The official transcripts and exhibits, together with all paper 
and requests filed in the proceeding, constitute the record.
    (r) Proposed findings, conclusions. (1) Within four (4) days of the 
close of the reception of evidence, or within such longer time as the 
Presiding Officer may fix, any party may submit for the consideration of 
the Presiding Officer proposed findings of fact, conclusions of law, and 
proposed order, together with reasons therefor and briefs in support 
thereof. These proposals will be in writing, be served upon all parties, 
and contain adequate references to the record and authorities relied 
upon.
    (2) The record will show the Presiding Officer's ruling on the 
proposed findings and conclusions except when his order disposing of the 
proceeding otherwise informs the parties of the action taken by him 
thereon.
    (s) Decision of the Presiding Officer. (1) Unless extended by the 
Environmental Appeals Board, the Presiding Officer shall issue and file 
with the Hearing Clerk his decision within fourteen (14) days (or within 
seven (7) days in the case of a hearing requested under Sec. 86.1012-
84(1)) after the period for filing proposed findings as provided for in 
paragraph (r) of this section has expired.
    (2) The Presiding Officer's decision shall become the decision of 
the Environmental Appeals Board:
    (i) When no notice of intention to appeal as described in paragraphs 
(t) and (u) of this section is filed, ten (10) days after issuance 
thereof, unless in the interim the Environmental Appeals Board shall 
have acted to review or stay the effective date of the decision; or
    (ii) When a notice of intention to appeal is filed but the appeal is 
not perfected as required by paragraphs (t) or (u) of this section, five 
(5) days after the period allowed for perfection of an appeal has 
expired unless within that five (5) day period, the Environmental 
Appeals Board shall have acted to review or stay the effective date of 
the decision.
    (3) The Presiding Officer's decision must include a statement of 
findings and conclusions, as well as the reasons or basis therefor, upon 
all the material issues of fact or law presented on the record and an 
appropriate rule or order. The decision must be supported by substantial 
evidence and based upon a consideration of the whole record.
    (4) At any time prior to the issuance of his decision, the Presiding 
Officer may reopen the proceeding for the reception of further evidence. 
Except for

[[Page 737]]

the correction of clerical errors, the jurisdiction of the Presiding 
Officer is terminated upon the issuance of his decision.
    (t) Appeal from the decision of the Presiding Officer. (1) Any party 
to a proceeding may appeal the Presiding Officer's decision to the 
Environmental Appeals Board; Provided, That within ten (10) days after 
issuance of the Presiding Officer's decision the party files a notice of 
intention to appeal and an appeal brief within twenty (20) days of the 
decision.
    (2) When an appeal is taken from the decision of the Presiding 
Officer, any party may file a brief with respect to the appeal. The 
party shall file the brief within fifteen (15) days of the date of the 
filing of the appellant's brief.
    (3) Any brief filed pursuant to this paragraph will contain, in the 
order indicated, the following:
    (i) A subject index of the matter in the brief, with page 
references, and a table of cases (alphabetically arranged), textbooks,

    (ii) A specification of the issues intended to be urged; provided, 
however, that in the case of a hearing requested under Sec. 86.1012-
84(l), the brief will be restricted to the issues specified in paragraph 
(c)(2)(ii) of this section;
    (iii) The argument presenting clearly the points of fact and law 
relied upon in support of the position taken on each issue, with

    (2) Any party to the proceeding may appeal the Presiding Officer's 
decision to the Environmental Appeals Board by filing a notice of appeal 
within ten (10) days.
    (3) The notice of appeal must be in the form of a brief and conform 
to the requirements of paragraph (t)(3) of this section.
    (4) Within ten (10) days after a notice of appeal from the decision

file a brief with respect to that appeal.
    (5) No brief in excess of fifteen (15) pages will be filed without 
leave of the Environmental Appeals Board.
    (v) Review of the Presiding Officer's decision in the absence of 
appeal. (1) If after the expiration of the period for taking an appeal 
as provided for by paragraph (t) or (u) of this section, no notice of 
intention to appeal the decision of the Presiding Officer has been 
filed, or if filed, not perfected, the Hearing Clerk shall so notify the 
Environmental Appeals Board.
    (2) The Environmental Appeals Board, upon receipt of notice from the 
Hearing Clerk that no notice of intention to appeal the decision of the 
Presiding Officer has been filed, or if filed, not perfected pursuant to 
paragraph (t) or (u) of this section, may, on its own motion, within the 
time limits specified in paragraph (s)(2) of this section, review the 
decision of the Presiding Officer. Notice of the intention of the 
Environmental Appeals Board to review the decision of the Presiding 
Officer shall be given to all parties and shall set forth the scope of 
such review and the issues to be considered and shall make provision for 
filing of briefs.
    (w) Decision of appeal or review. (1) Upon appeal from or review of 
the Presiding Officer's decision, the Environmental Appeals Board shall 
consider such parts of the record as are cited or as may be necessary to

contained in the decision of the Presiding Officer and shall set forth 
in its decision a statement of the reasons or basis for its action.

[[Page 738]]

    (3) In those cases where the Environmental Appeals Board determines 
that it should have further information or additional views of the 
parties as to the form and content of the rule or order to be issued, 
the Environmental Appeals Board, in its discretion, may withhold final 
action pending the receipt of such additional information or views, or 
may remand the case to the Presiding Officer.
    (4) Any decision rendered under this paragraph which completes 
disposition of a case constitutes a final decision of the Environmental 
Appeals Board.
    (x) Reconsideration. (1) Within twenty (20) days after issuance of 
the Environmental Appeals Board's decision, any party may file with the 
Environmental Appeals Board a petition for reconsideration of such 
decision, setting forth the relief desired and the grounds in support 
thereof. Any petition filed under this subsection must be confined to 
new questions raised by the decision or final order and upon which the 
petitioner had no opportunity to argue before the Presiding Officer or 
the Environmental Appeals Board; Provided, however, That in the case of 
a hearing requested under Sec. 86.1012-84(1) such new questions shall be 
limited to the issues specified in paragraph (c)(2)(ii) of this section.
    (2) Any party desiring to oppose this petition shall file an answer 
thereto within ten (10) days after the filing of the petition. The 
filing of a petition for reconsideration shall not operate to stay the 
effective date of the decision or order or to toll the running of any 
statutory time period affecting such decision or order unless 
specifically so ordered by the Environmental Appeals Board.
    (y) Accelerated decision, dismissal. (1) The Presiding Officer, upon 
motion of any party or sua sponte, may at any time render an accelerated 
decision in favor of the Agency or the manufacturer as to all or any 
part of the proceeding, without further hearing or upon limited 
additional evidence such as affidavits which he may require, or dismiss 
any party with prejudice, for any of the following reasons:
    (i) Failure to state a claim upon which relief can be granted, or 
direct or collateral estoppel;
    (ii) The lack of any genuine issue of material fact, causing a party 
to be entitled to judgment as a matter of law; or
    (iii) Such other reasons as are just, including specifically failure 
to obey a procedural order of the Presiding Officer.
    (2) If, under this subsection, an accelerated decision is issued as 
to all the issues and claims joined in the proceeding, the decision will 
be treated for the purposes of these procedures as the decision of the 
Presiding Officer as provided in paragraph (s) of this section.
    (3) If, under this subsection, judgment is rendered on less than all 
issues or claims in the proceeding, the Presiding Officer shall

Sec. 86.1103-87  Criteria for availability of nonconformance penalties.

    (a) EPA shall establish for each subclass of heavy-duty engines and 
heavy-duty vehicles (other than motorcycles), an NCP for a motor vehicle 
pollutant, when any new or revised emission standard is more stringent 
than the previous standard for the pollutant, or when an existing 
standard for that pollutant becomes more difficult to achieve because of 
a new or revised standard, provided that EPA finds:
    (1) That for such subclass of engines or vehicles, substantial work 
will be required to meet the standard for which the NCP is offered, and
    (2) That there is likely to be a technological laggard.
    (b) Substantial work, as used in paragraph (a)(1) of this section, 
means the application of technology not previously used in an engine or 
vehicle class or subclass, or the significant

[[Page 741]]

modification of existing technology or design parameters, needed to 
bring the vehicle or engine into compliance with either the more 
stringent new or revised standard or an existing standard which becomes 
more difficult to achieve because of a new or revised standard.



Sec. 86.1104-91  Determination of upper limits.

    (a) The upper limit applicable to a pollutant emission standard for 
a subclass of heavy-duty engines or heavy-duty vehicles for which an NCP 
is established in accordance with Sec. 86.1103-87, shall be the previous 
pollutant emission standard for that subclass.
    (b) If no previous standard existed for the pollutant under 
paragraph (a) of this section, the upper limit will be developed by EPA 
during rulemaking.
    (c) If a manufacturer participates in any of the emissions 
averaging, trading, or banking programs, and carries over certification 
of an engine family from the prior model year, the upper limit for that 
engine family shall be the family emission limit of the prior model 
year, unless the family emission limit is less than the upper limit 
determined in paragraph (a) of this section.

Sec. 86.1106-87  Production compliance auditing.

    For a model year in which upper limits for heavy-duty engine or 
heavy-duty vehicle emission standards for one or more exhaust pollutants 
are specified in Sec. 86.1105-87, a manufacturer may elect to conduct a 
Production Compliance Audit (PCA) for each engine or vehicle 
configuration satisfying the following conditions:
    (a) Certification test results, pursuant to Sec. 86.082-23, exceed 
the emission standard for a particular pollutant but do not exceed the 
upper limit established for that pollutant. In that event, the 
manufacturer will be offered a qualified certificate of conformity 
allowing for the introduction into commerce of the specified engine 
family, Provided, That:
    (1) The manufacturer must agree to conduct a PCA of those engines or 
vehicles;
    (2) PCA testing must be conducted on the same configurations that 
exceeded the standard in certification. In lieu of that requirement, the 
Administrator may approve testing of a greater or lesser number of 
configurations provided the manufacturer agrees to pay the NCP 
determined from the CL of each tested configuration for that 
configuration and for other non-tested configurations that have similar 
emission characteristics. If an acceptable showing of similar emission 
characteristics is not made, the highest CL of the configurations tested 
will apply to all non-tested configurations exceeding the standard.
    (3) The selection of engines or vehicles for PCA testing must be 
initiated no later than five (5) days after the start of assembly-line

represented and advised by counsel.



Sec. 86.1110-87  Sample selection.

    (a) Engines or vehicles comprising a test sample which are required 
to be tested pursuant to a PCA in accordance with this subpart will be 
selected at the location and in the manner specified by EPA. If a 
manufacturer determines that the test engines or vehicles cannot be 
selected in the manner specified by EPA, an alternative selection 
procedure may be employed, provided that the manufacturer requests 
approval of the alternative procedure in advance of the start of test 
sample selection and that the Administrator approves the procedure.
    (b) The manufacturer shall have assembled the test engines or 
vehicles of the configuration selected for testing using its normal mass 
production processes for engines or vehicles to be distributed into 
commerce. In the case of heavy-duty engines, if the test engines are 
selected at a location where they do not have their operational and 
emission control systems installed, EPA will specify the manner and 
location for selection of components to complete assembly of the 
engines. The manufacturer shall assemble these components onto the test 
engines using normal assembly and quality control procedures as 
documented by the manufacturer.
    (c) No quality control, testing, or assembly procedures will be used 
on the completed test engine or vehicle or any portion thereof, 
including parts and subassemblies, that will not be used during the 
production and assembly of all other engines or vehicles of that 
configuration.
    (d) The EPA Enforcement Officers may specify that they, rather than 
the manufacturer, will select the test engines or vehicles.
    (e) The order in which test engines or vehicles are selected 
determines the order in which test results are to be used in applying 
the PCA testing plan in accordance with Sec. 86.1112-87.
    (f) The manufacturer shall keep on hand all engines or vehicles 
comprising the test sample until such time as a compliance level is 
determined in accordance with Sec. 86.1112-87(a) except that the 
manufacturer may ship any tested engine or vehicle which has not failed 
in accordance with Sec. 86.1112-87(f)(1). However, once the manufacturer 
ships any test engine or vehicle, it relinquishes the prerogative to 
conduct retests as provided in Sec. 86.1111-87(i).



Sec. 86.1111-87  Test procedures for PCA testing.

    (a)(1) For heavy-duty engines, the prescribed test procedure for PCA 
testing is the Federal Test Procedure as described in subparts N, I, and 
P of this part.
    (2) For heavy-duty vehicles, the prescribed test procedure for PCA 
testing is described in subpart M of this part.
    (3) For light-duty trucks, the prescribed test procedure for PCA 
testing is the Federal Test Procedure as described in subparts B and P 
of this part.
    (4) During the testing of heavy-duty diesel engines, the 
manufacturer shall decide for each engine, prior to the start of the 
initial cold cycle, whether the measurement of background particulate is 
required for the cold and hot cycles to be valid. The manufacturer may 
choose to have different requirements for the cold and hot cycles. If a 
manufacturer chooses to require the measurement of background 
particulate, failure to measure background particulate shall void the 
test cycle regardless of the test results. If a test

[[Page 750]]

cycle is void, the manufacturer shall retest using the same validity 
requirements of the initial test.
    (5) When testing light-duty trucks, the following exceptions to the 
test procedures in subpart B are applicable:
    (i) The manufacturer may use gasoline test fuel meeting the 
specifications of paragraph (a) of Sec. 86.113 for mileage accumulation. 
Otherwise, the manufacturer may use fuels other than those specified in 
this section only with advance approval of the Administrator.
    (ii) The manufacturer may measure the temperature of the test fuel 
at other than the approximate midvolume of the fuel tank, as specified 
in paragraph (a) of Sec. 86.131, and may drain the test fuel from other 
than the lowest point of the fuel tank, as specified in paragraph (b) of 
Sec. 86.131, with the advance approval of the Administrator.
    (iii) The manufacturer may perform additional preconditioning on PCA 
test vehicles other than the preconditioning specified in Sec. 86.132 
only if the additional preconditioning has been performed on 
certification test vehicles of the same configuration.
    (iv) The manufacturer shall perform the heat build procedure 11 to 
34 hours following vehicle preconditioning rather than according to the 
time period specified in paragraph (a) of Sec. 86.133.
    (v) The manufacturer may substitute slave tires for the drive wheel 
tires on the vehicle as specified in paragraph (e) of Sec. 86.135, 
provided that the slave tires are the same size as the drive wheel 
tires.
    (vi) The cold start exhaust emission test described in Sec. 86.137 
shall follow the heat build procedure described in Sec. 86.133 by not 
more than one hour.
    (vii) In performing exhaust sample analysis under Sec. 86.140:
    (A) When testing diesel vehicles, the manufacturer shall allow a 
minimum of 20 minutes warm-up for the HC analyzer, and a minimum of 2 
hours warm-up for the CO, CO2 and NOX analyzers. 
[Power is normally left on for infrared and chemiluminescent analyzers. 
When not in use, the chopper motors of the infrared analyzers are turned 
off and the phototube high voltage supply to the chemiluminescent 
analyzers is placed in the standby position.]
    (B) The manufacturer shall exercise care to prevent moisture from 
condensing in the sample collection bags.
    (viii) The manufacturer need not comply with Sec. 86.142, since the 
records required therein are provided under other provisions of this 
subpart.
    (ix) In addition to the requirements of subpart B of this part, the 
manufacturer shall prepare gasoline-fueled vehicles as follows prior to 
exhaust emission testing:
    (A) The manufacturer shall inspect the fuel system to insure the 
absence of any leaks of liquid or vapor to the atmosphere by applying a 
pressure of 14.5  0.5 inches of water to the fuel system, 
allowing the pressure to stabilize, and isolating the fuel system from 
the pressure source. Following isolation of the fuel system, pressure 
must not drop more than 2.0 inches of water in 5 minutes. If required, 
the manufacturer shall perform corrective action in accordance with 
paragraph (d) of this section.
    (B) When performing this pressure check, the manufacturer shall 
exercise care to neither purge nor load the evaporative emission control 
system.
    (C) The manufacturer shall not modify the test vehicle's evaporative 
emission control system by component addition, deletion, or 
substitution, except to comply with paragraph (a)(4)(ii) of this section 
if approved in advance by the Administrator.
    (b)(1) The manufacturer shall not adjust, repair, prepare, or modify 
the engines or vehicles selected for testing and shall not perform any 
emission tests on engines or vehicles selected for testing pursuant to a 
PCA request unless the adjustment, repair, preparation, modification, or 
tests are documented in the manufacturer's engine or vehicle assembly 
and inspection procedures and are actually performed on all engines or 
vehicles produced or unless these adjustments or tests are required or 
permitted under this subpart or are approved in advance by the 
Administrator.
    (2) For 1984 and later model years the Administrator may adjust or 
cause to be adjusted any engine parameter which the Administrator has 
determined to be subject to adjustment for certification, Selective 
Enforcement

[[Page 751]]

Audit and Production. Compliance Audit testing in accordance with 
Sec. 86.084-22(e)(1), to any setting within the physically adjustable 
range of that parameter, as determined by the Administrator in 
accordance with Sec. 86.084-2(e)(3)(ii), prior to the performance of any 
tests. However, if the idle speed parameter is one which the 
Administrator has determined to be subject to adjustment, the 
Administrator shall not adjust it to any setting which causes a lower 
engine idle speed than would have been possible within the physically 
adjustable range of the idle speed parameter if the manufacturer had 
accumulated 125 hours of service on the engine or 4,000 miles on the 
vehicle under paragraph (c) of this section, all other parameters being 
identically adjusted for the purpose of the comparison. The manufacturer 
may be requested to supply information to establish such an alternative 
minimum idle speed. The Administrator, in making or specifying these 
adjustments, may consider the effect of the deviation from the 
manufacturer's recommended setting on emissions performance 
characteristics as well as the likelihood that similar settings will 
occur on in-use heavy-duty engines or light-duty trucks. In determining 
likelihood, the Administrator may consider factors such as, but not 
limited to, the effect of the adjustment on engine or vehicle 
performance characteristics and surveillance information from similar 
in-use engines or vehicles.
    (c) Prior to performing emission testing on a PCA test engine, the 
manufacturer may accumulate on each engine a number of hours of service 
equal to the greater of 125 hours or the number of hours the 
manufacturer accumulated during certification on the emission-data 
engine corresponding to the configuration tested during PCA. Prior to 
performing emission testing on a PCA test vehicle, the manufacturer may 
accumulate a number of miles equal to the greater of 4,000 miles or the 
number of miles the manufacturer accumulated during certification on the 
emission-data vehicle corresponding to the configuration tested during 
PCA. Service or mileage accumulation may be performed in any manner the 
manufacturer desires.
    (d) No maintenance shall be performed on test engines or vehicles 
after selection for testing nor will any test engine or vehicle 
substitution or replacement be allowed, unless requested of and approved 
by the Administrator in advance of the performance of any maintenance or 
engine or vehicle substitution.
    (e) The manufacturer shall expeditiously ship test engines or 
vehicles from the point of selection to the test facility or other 
location to meet any other requirements of this subpart. If the test 
facility is not located at or in close proximity to the point of 
selection, the manufacturer shall assure that test engines or vehicles 
arrive at the test facility within 24 hours of selection, except that 
the Administrator may approve more time based upon a request by the 
manufacturer accompanied by a satisfactory justification.
    (f) If an engine or vehicle cannot complete the service or mileage 
accumulation or emission tests because of engine or vehicle malfunction, 
the manufacturer may request that the Administrator authorize the repair 
of the engine or vehicle. If the engine or vehicle cannot be repaired 
expeditiously, EPA may delete it from the test sequence.
    (g)(1) Heavy-duty engine manufacturers with projected sales bound 
for the United States market for that year of 30,000 or greater, as made 
in their respective Applications for Certification, shall complete 
emission testing at their testing facility on a minimum of two engines 
per 24 hour period, including voided tests.

Sec. 86.1112-87  Determining the compliance level and reporting of test results.

    (a) A manufacturer that has elected to conduct a PCA in accordance 
with Sec. 86.1106-87 may establish the compliance level for a pollutant 
for any engine or vehicle configuration by using the primary PCA 
sampling plan or either of two optional reduced PCA sampling plans (the 
fixed reduced sampling plan or the sequential reduced sampling plan) 
described below. A manufacturer that uses either of the two optional 
reduced PCA sampling plans may elect to continue testing and establish a 
compliance level under the primary PCA sampling plan.
    (1) A manufacturer that elects to conduct a PCA for a pollutant 
using the primary PCA sampling plan shall:
    (i) Conduct emission tests on 24 engines or vehicles in accordance 
with Sec. 86.1111-87 for the pollutants for which the PCA was initiated. 
If the PCA follows an SEA failure, the number of additional tests 
conducted shall be the difference between 24 and the number of engines 
or vehicles tested in the SEA. If 24 or more engines or vehicles were 
tested in the SEA, no additional tests shall be conducted; and
    (ii) Rank the final deteriorated test results, as defined by 
paragraph (e) of this section, obtained for that pollutant in order from 
the lowest to the highest value. If the PCA follows an SEA failure, all 
SEA test results for that pollutant shall be included in this ranking.
    (iii) The compliance level for that pollutant is the final 
deteriorated test result in the sequence determined from table 1 of 
appendix XII of these regulations.
    (2) A manufacturer that elects to conduct a PCA for a pollutant 
using the fixed reduced PCA sampling plan shall:
    (i) Select a sample size between 3 and 23 engines or vehicles. If 
the PCA follows an SEA failure, the sample size selected cannot be less 
than the number of engines or vehicles tested during the SEA; and
    (ii) Conduct emission tests on the selected sample in accordance 
with Sec. 86.1111-87 for the pollutants for which the PCA was initiated.
    (iii) The compliance level for the pollutant is the result of the 
following equation, using the test results obtained in paragraph 
(a)(2)(ii) of this section and all SEA test results for that pollutant 
if the PCA follows an SEA failure:

CL=X + Ks

where:

CL=The compliance level.
X=The mean of the final deteriorated test results, as defined by 
          paragraph (e) of this section.
K=A value that depends on the size of the test sample. See table 2 of 
          appendix XII of this part for the value of K that corresponds 
          to the size of the test sample.
s=The sample standard deviation.


The compliance level is rounded to the same number of significant 
figures contained in the applicable standard in accordance with ASTM 
E29-67.
    (3) A manufacturer that elects to conduct a PCA for a pollutant 
using the sequential reduced PCA sampling plan shall perform the 
following:
    (i) Select a sample size of 4, 8, 12, 16 or 20 engines or vehicles. 
If the PCA follows an SEA failure, the sample size

[[Page 753]]

selected cannot be less than the number of engines or vehicles tested 
during the SEA.
    (ii) Conduct emission tests on the selected sample in accordance 
with Sec. 86.1111-87 for the pollutants for which the PCA was initiated.
    (iii) The compliance level for the pollutant is the result of the 
following equation, using the test results obtained in (a)(3)(ii) and 
all SEA test results for that pollutant if the PCA follows an SEA 
failure:

CL=X + Ks

where:

CL=The compliance level.
X=The mean of the final deteriorated test results, as defined by 
          paragraph (e) of this section.
K=A value that depends on the size of the test sample. See table 3 of 
          appendix XII of this part for the value of K that corresponds 
          to the size of the test sample.
s=The sample standard deviation.


The compliance level is rounded to the same number of significant 
figures contained in the applicable standard in accordance with ASTM 
E29-67.
    (iv) After calculating a compliance level in accordance with 
paragraph (a)(3)(iii) of this section, a manufacturer may elect to 
increase the sample size by 4 engines or vehicles, or a multiple 
thereof, up to the maximum, including SEA engines or vehicles if any, of 
20. Upon that election, the manufacturer shall add the additional 
engines or vehicles to the sample and perform paragraphs (a)(3)(ii) and 
(a)(3)(iii) of this section. This election may be repeated if 
appropriate. A compliance level determined under this election shall 
replace a previously determined compliance level.
    (b) A fail decision is reached with respect to the upper limit when 
the compliance level determined in paragraph (a) of this section exceeds 
the applicable upper limit.
    (c) Initial test results are calculated following the Federal Test 
Procedure specified in Sec. 86.1111-87(a).
    (d) Final test results are calculated by summing the initial test 
results derived in paragraph (c) of this section for each test engine or 
vehicle, dividing by the number of tests conducted on the engine or 
vehicle, and rounding in accordance with ASTM E29-67 to the same number 
of decimal places contained in the applicable standard expressed to one 
additional significant figure.
    (e) Final deteriorated test results. (1) The final deteriorated test 
results for each heavy-duty engine or light-duty truck tested according 
to subpart B, I, N, or P of this part are calculated by applying the 
final test results by the appropriate deterioration factor, derived from 
the certification process for the engine family control system 
combination and model year for the selected configuration to which the 
test engine or vehicle belongs. If the deterioration factor computed 
during the certification process is multiplicative and it is less than 
one, that deterioration factor will be one. If the deterioration factor 
computed during the certification process is additive and it is less 
than zero, that deterioration factor will be zero.
    (2) The final deteriorated test results are rounded to the same 
number of significant figures contained in the applicable standard in 
accordance with ASTM E29-67.
    (f) A failed engine or vehicle is one whose final deteriorated test 
results, for one or more of the applicable exhaust pollutants, exceed:
    (1) The applicable emission standard, or
    (2) The compliance level established in paragraph (b) of this 
section.
    (g) Within five working days after completion of PCA testing of all 
engines or vehicles, the manufacturer shall submit to the Administrator 
a report which includes the following information:
    (1) The location and description of the manufacturer's emission test 
facilities which were utilized to conduct testing reported pursuant to 
this section;
    (2) The applicable standards against which the engines or vehicles 
were tested;
    (3) Deterioration factors for the engine family to which the 
selected configuration belongs;
    (4) A description of the engine or vehicle and any emission-related 
component selection method used;
    (5) For each test conducted:

[[Page 754]]

    (i) Test engine or vehicle description, including;
    (A) Configuration and engine family identification,
    (B) Year, make and build date,
    (C) Engine or vehicle identification number, and
    (D) Number of hours of service accumulated on engine or number of 
miles on vehicle prior to testing;
    (ii) Location where service or mileage accumulation was conducted 
and description of accumulation procedure and schedule;
    (iii) Test number, date, initial test results before and after 
rounding, final test results and final deteriorated test results for all 
emission tests, whether valid or invalid, and the reason for 
invalidation, if applicable;
    (iv) A complete description of any modification, repair, 
preparation, maintenance, and/or testing which was performed on the test 
engine or vehicle and has not been reported pursuant to any other 
paragraph of this subpart and will not be performed on all other 
production engines or vehicles; and
    (v) Any other information the Administrator may request relevant to 
the determination as to whether the new heavy-duty engines or heavy-duty 
vehicles being manufactured by the manufacturer do in fact conform with 
the regulations of this subpart; and
    (6) The following statement and endorsement:

    This report is submitted pursuant to section 206 of the Clean Air

Sec. 86.1113-87  Calculation and payment of penalty.

    (a) The NCP for each engine or vehicle for which a compliance level 
has been determined under Sec. 86.1112-87 is calculated according to the 
formula in paragraph (a)(1) or (a)(2) of this section depending on the 
value of the compliance level. Each formula contains an annual 
adjustment factor (AAFi) which is defined in paragraph (a)(3) 
of this section. Other terms in the formulas are defined in paragraph 
(a)(4) of this section.
    (1) If the compliance level (CL) is greater than the standard and 
less than or equal to X (e.g., point CL1 in figure 1), then:
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR06OC93.111

where:

PR1 = (F) (MC50)

    (2) If the compliance level is greater than X and less than or equal 
to the upper limit as determined by Sec. 86.1104-87 (e.g., point 
CL2 in figure 1), then:
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR06OC93.112

where:
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR06OC93.113

    (3) AAFi has the following values:
    (i) If fraci-1 = 0, then AAFi = 1 + 
Ii-1
    (ii) If fraci-1 >0, then:
    [GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR06OC93.114
    

[[Page 755]]

[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR06OC93.183



If fraci-1 >0.50, then fraci-1 will be set equal 
to 0.50.
    (iii) AAF1=1
    (iv) In calculating the NCP for year n, the value fraci-1 
for i=n will include actual NCP usage through March 31 of model year n-1 
and EPA's estimate of additional usage for the remainder of model year 
n-1 using manufacturer input. All manufacturers using NCPs must report 
by subclass actual NCP and non-NCP production numbers through March 31, 
an estimate of NCP and non-NCP production for the remainder of the model 
year, and the previous year's actual NCP and non-NCP production to EPA 
no later than April 30 of the model year. If EPA is unable to obtain 
similar information from manufacturers not using NCPs, EPA will use 
projected sales data from the manufacturers' application for 
certification in computing the total production of the subclass and the 
fraci-1. The value of fraci-1 will be corrected to 
reflect actual year-end usage of NCPs and a corrected AAF will be used 
to establish NCPs in future years. The correction of previous year's AAF 
will not affect the previous year's penalty.
    (4) The terms in the above formulas have the following meanings and 
values, which may be determined separately for each subclass and 
pollutant for which an NCP is offered. The production of Federal and 
California designated engines or vehicles shall be combined for the 
purpose of this section in calculating the NCP for each engine or 
vehicle.

NCPn=NCP for year n for each applicable engine or vehicle
CL=Compliance level for year n for applicable engines or vehicles
S=Emission standard
UL=Upper limit as determined by section 86.1104-87, except that, if the 
          upper limit is determined by section 86.1104-87(c), the value 
          of UL in paragraph (a)(2) of this section shall be the prior 
          emission standard for that pollutant.
UL'=Upper limit as determined by section 86.1104-87(c). This value is 
          not used in the above formulas.
X=Compliance level above the standard at which NCP1 equals 
          COC50

[[Page 756]]

[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR06OC93.115


PR1=Penalty rate when CL X
PR2=Penalty rate when X< CL applicable upper limit
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR06OC93.116

i=An index representing a year. It represents the same year for both 
          Federal and California designated engines or vehicles of the 
          same production model year.
n=Index representing the number of model years for which the NCP has 
          been available for an engine or vehicle subclass (i.e., n=1 
          for the first year that the NCP is available, and so on until 
          n=n for the nth year that the NCP is available). The factor 
          ``n'' is based on the model year the NCP is first available, 
          as specified in section 86.1105-87 for the engine or vehicle 
          subclass and pollutant for both Federal and California 
          designated engines and vehicles.
COC50=Estimate of the average total incremental cost to 
          comply with the standard relative to complying with the upper 
          limit.
COC90=Estimate of the 90th percentile total incremental cost 
          to comply with the standard relative to complying with the 
          upper limit.
MC50=Estimate of the average marginal cost of compliance 
          (dollars per emission unit) with the standard.
F=Factor used to estimate the 90th percentile marginal cost based on the 
          average marginal cost (the minimum value of F is 1.1, the 
          maximum value of F is 1.3).
AAFi=Annual adjustment factor for year i, fraci-
          1=Fraction of engines or vehicles of a subclass using 
          NCPs in previous year (year i-1).
Ai=Usage adjustment factor in year i: Ai=0.10 for 
          i=2; Ai=0.08 for i<2.
Ii=Percentage increase in overall consumer price index in 
          year i.

    (5) The values of COC50, COC90, 
MC50 and F will be determined for each applicable subclass by 
EPA based on the cost data used by EPA in setting the applicable 
emission standard. However, where the rulemaking to establish a specific 
NCP occurs after the rulemaking to establish the standard, EPA may 
augment the data base used to establish the standard by including the 
best cost and emission performance data available to EPA during the 
specific NCP rulemaking.
    (6) In calculating the NCP, appropriate values of the following 
predefined terms should be used: CL, S, UL, F, and Ai. For 
all other terms, unrounded values of at least five figures beyond the 
decimal point should be used in calculations leading up to the penalty 
amount. Any NCP calculated under paragraph (a) of this section will be 
rounded to the nearest dollar in accordance with ASTM E29-67.
    (b) The NCP determined in paragraph (a) of this section is assessed 
against all those engines or vehicles of the nonconforming configuration 
or engine family produced at all assembly plants and distributed into 
commerce--
    (1) Since the beginning of the model year in the case of a 
certification failure described by Sec. 86.1106-87(a).
    (2) Beginning ten days after an SEA failure described by 
Sec. 86.1106-87 (b) or (c).
    (3) Following implementation of a production running change 
described by Sec. 86.1106-87(d).
    (c) The NCP will continue to be assessed during the model year, 
until such time, if any, that the configuration or engine family is 
brought into conformance with applicable emission standards.
    (d) A manufacturer may carry over an NCP from a model year to the 
next model year. There is no limit to the number of years that carryover 
can continue. The amount of the penalty will increase each year 
according to paragraph (a) of this section.
    (e) The Administrator shall notify the manufacturer in writing of 
the nonconformance penalty established under paragraph (a) of this 
section after the completion of the PCA under Sec. 86.1112-87.

[[Page 757]]

    (f) A manufacturer may request a hearing under Sec. 86.1115-87 as to 
whether the compliance level (including a compliance level in excess of 
the upper limit) was determined in accordance with the procedures in 
Sec. 86.1112-87(a) or whether the nonconformance penalty was calculated 
in accordance with the procedures in Sec. 86.1113-87(a). If a 
nonconformance penalty has been established, such hearing must be 
requested within fifteen (15) days or such other period as may be 
allowed by the Administrator after the notification of the 
nonconformance penalty. If a manufacturer wishes to challenge a 
compliance level in excess of the upper limit, he must request a hearing 
within fifteen (15) days or such other period as may be allowed by the 
Administrator after the completion of the Production Compliance Audit.
    (g)(1) Except as provided in paragraph (g)(2) of this section, the 
nonconformance penalty or penalties assessed under this subpart must be 
paid as follows:
    (i) By the quarterly due dates, i.e., within 30 days of the end of 
each calendar quarter (March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31), 
or according to such other payment schedule as the Administrator may 
approve pursuant to a manufacturer's request, for all nonconforming 
engines or vehicles produced by a manufacturer in accordance with 
paragraph (b) of this section and distributed into commerce for that 
quarter.
    (ii) The penalty shall be payable to U.S. Environmental Protection 
Agency, NCP Fund, P.O. Box 360277M, Pittsburgh, PA 15251.
    (2) When a manufacturer has requested a hearing under Sec. 86.1115-
87, it must pay the nonconformance penalty, and any interest, within ten 
days after the Presiding Officer renders his decision, unless the 
manufacturer first files a notice of intention to appeal to the 
Administrator pursuant to Sec. 86.1115-87(t)(1), or, if an appeal of the 
Presiding Officer's decision is taken, within ten days after the 
Administrator renders his decision, unless the manufacturer first files 
a petition for judicial review.
    (3) A manufacturer making payment under paragraph (g)(1) or (g)(2) 
of this section shall submit the following information by each quarterly 
due date to: Director, Manufacturers Operations Division, U.S. 
Environmental Protection Agency, 401 M Street SW., Washington, DC 20460. 
This information shall be submitted even if a manufacturer has no NCP 
production in a given quarter.
    (i) Corporate identification, identification and quantity of engines 
or vehicles subject to the NCP, certificate identification (number and 
date), NCP payment calculations and interest payment calculations, if 
applicable.
    (ii) The following statement and endorsement:

    This information is submitted pursuant to section 206 of the Clean 
Air Act. All information reported herein is, to the best of
__________________________________________'s
(Company name)

knowledge, true and accurate. I am aware of the penalties associated 
with violations of the Clean Air Act and the regulations thereunder.

 _______________________________________________________________________
(Authorized Company Representative)
    (4) The Administrator may verify the production figures or other 
documentation submitted under paragraph (g)(3) of this section.
    (5)(i) Interest shall be assessed on any nonconformance penalty for 
which payment has been withheld under Sec. 86.113-87(g) (1) or (2). 
Interest shall be calculated from the due date for the first quarterly 
NCP payment, as determined under Sec. 86.1113-87(g)(1), until either the 
date on which the Presiding Officer or the Administrator renders the 
final decision of the Agency under Sec. 86.1115-87 or the date when an 
alternate payment schedule (approved pursuant to Sec. 86.1113-87(g)(1)) 
ends.
    (ii) The combined principal plus interest on each quarterly NCP 
payment withheld pursuant to Sec. 86.1113-87(g) (1) or (2) shall be 
calculated according to the formula:

QNCP(1 + R).25n

where:
QNCP=the quarterly NCP payment
R=the interest rate applicable to that quarter
n=the number of quarters for which the quarterly NCP payment is 
          outstanding.

    (iii) The number of quarters for which payment is outstanding for 
purposes of this paragraph shall be the

[[Page 758]]

number of quarterly NCP payment due dates, as determined under 
Sec. 86.1113-87(g)(1), which have elapsed throughout the duration of a 
hearing request, or alternate payment schedule.
    (iv) The interest rate applicable to a quarter for purposes of this 
paragraph shall be the rate published by the Secretary of the Treasury 
pursuant to the Debt Collection Act of 1982 and effective on the date on 
which the NCP payment was originally due.
    (6) A manufacturer will be refunded an overpayment, or be permitted 
to offset an overpayment by withholding a future payment, if approved in 
advance by the Administrator. The government shall pay no interest on 
overpayments.
    (h) A manufacturer that certifies as a replacement for the 
nonconforming configuration, a configuration that is in conformance with 
applicable standards, and that performs a production compliance audit 
(PCA) in accordance with Sec. 86.1112-87(a) that results in a compliance 
level below the applicable standard, will be eligible to receive a 
refund of a portion of the engineering and development component of the 
penalty. The engineering and development component will be determined by 
multiplying the base penalty amount by the engineering and development 
factor for the appropriate subclass and pollutant in Sec. 86.1105-87. 
The amount refunded will depend on the model year in which the 
certification and PCA take place. In cases where payment of penalties 
have been waived by EPA in accordance with paragraph (g)(1)(iii) of this 
section, EPA will refund a portion of the engineering and development 
component. The proportionate refund to be paid by EPA will be based on 
the proportion of vehicles or engines of the nonconforming configuration 
for which NCPs were paid to EPA. The refund is calculated as follows:

Rtot=Dn  x  FE&D  x  NCP1 
          x  Prodtot
RCal=(ProdCal/Prodtot)  x  
          (Rtot)
REPA=Rtot-RCal

Where:
n=index representing the number of model years for which the NCP has 
          been available for an engine or vehicle subclass (i.e., n=1 
          for the first year that NCPs are available, . . . , n=n for 
          the nth year the NCPs are available; same as ``n'' 
          in paragraph (a)(4)).
Dn=discount factor depending on the number of model years (n) 
          for which NCPs were available at the time of certification and 
          PCA of the replacement configuration, and its value is as 
          follows:
    D1=0.90
    D2=0.79
    D3=0.67
    D4=0.54
    D5=0.39
    D6=0.23
    D7=0.05
    Dn=0.00 for n=8 or larger
FE&D=the engineering and development factor specified in 
          section 86.1105-87 for the appropriate subclass and pollutant
NCP1=the penalty for each engine or vehicle during the first 
          (base) year the NCP is available as calculated in paragraph 
          (a)
Prodtot=total number of engines or vehicles produced in the 
          subclass for which NCPs were paid to EPA or to the State of 
          California
ProdCal=number of engines or vehicles in the subclass 
          demonstrated to have been titled, registered or principally 
          used in the State of California and for which NCPs were paid 
          to the State of California under paragraph (g)(1)
Rtot=Total refund due to the manufacturer for the engineering 
          and development component of the NCP
RCal=Refund due to the manufacturer from the State of 
          California for the engineering and development component of 
          the NCP
REPA=Refund due to the manufacturer from EPA for the

Sec. 86.1114-87  Suspension and voiding of certificates of conformity.

    (a) The certificate of conformity is suspended with respect to any 
engine or vehicle failing pursuant to paragraph (f) of Sec. 86.1112-87 
effective from the time that a fail decision is made for that engine or 
vehicle.
    (b) Once a certificate has been suspended for a failed engine or 
vehicle as provided for in paragraph (a) of this section, the 
manufacturer shall take the following actions:
    (1) Before the certificate is reinstated for that failed engine or 
vehicle,
    (i) Remedy the nonconformity, and
    (ii) Demonstrate that the engine or vehicle conforms to the 
applicable

[[Page 759]]

standards or compliance levels by retesting the engine or vehicle in 
accordance with these regulations; and
    (2) Submit a written report to the Administrator within five working 
days after successful completion of testing on the failed engine or 
vehicle, which contains a description of the remedy and test results for 
each engine or vehicle in addition to other information that may be 
required by this regulation.
    (c) The Administrator may suspend the certificate of conformity if 
the manufacturer, after electing to conduct a PCA, fails to adhere to 
the requirements stated in Sec. 86.1106-87(b)(3), (b)(6)(iii), (c)(2), 
or (c)(5)(iii).
    (d) The Administrator may suspend the qualified certificate of 
conformity issued under the conditions specified in Sec. 86.1106-87 if 
the manufacturer fails to adhere to the requirements stated in 
Sec. 86.1106-87(a)(3), (a)(4)(iii), (d)(2)(iii), or (d)(3).
    (e) The Administrator may suspend the certificate of conformity or 
the qualified certificate of conformity if the compliance level as 
determined in Sec. 86.1112-87(a) is in excess of the upper limit.
    (f) The Administrator may void the certificate of conformity if the 
compliance level as determined in Sec. 86.1112-87(a) is in excess of the 
upper limit and the manufacturer fails to recall any engines or vehicles 
introduced into commerce pursuant to Sec. 86.1106-87(a)(4)(ii), 
(b)(6)(ii), (c)(5)(ii) or (d)(2)(ii).
    (g) The Administrator may void the certificate of conformity for 
those engines or vehicles for which the manufacturer fails to meet the 
requirements of Sec. 86.1106-87(a)(4)(i), (b)(6)(i), (c)(5)(i), or 
(d)(2)(i).
    (h) The Administrator shall notify the manufacturer in writing of 
any suspension or voiding of a certificate of conformity in whole or in 
part, except as provided for in paragraph (a) of this section.
    (i) A certificate of conformity suspended or voided under paragaph 
(c), (d), (e), (f) or (g) of this section may be reinstated after a 
written request by the manufacturer and under such terms and conditions 
as the Administrator may require and after the manufacturer demonstrates 
compliance with applicable requirements.
    (j) After the Administrator suspends or voids a certificate of 
conformity pursuant to this section or notifies a manufacturer of his 
intent to suspend or void a certificate of conformity under Sec. 86.087-
30(e), and prior to the commencement of a hearing, if any, under 
Sec. 86.1115-87, if the manufacturer demonstrates to the Administrator's 
satisfaction that the decision to suspend or void the certificate was 
based on erroneous information, the Administrator shall reinstate the 
certificate.



Sec. 86.1115-87  Hearing procedures for nonconformance determinations and penalties.

    (a) Applicability. The procedures prescribed by this section shall 
apply whenever a manufacturer requests a hearing pursuant to 
Sec. 86.087-30(e)(6)(i), Sec. 86.087-30(e)(7), or Sec. 86.1113-87(f).
    (b) Definitions. The following definitions shall be applicable to 
this section:
    (1) Hearing Clerk shall mean the Hearing Clerk of the Environmental 
Protection Agency.
    (2) Manufacturer means a manufacturer contesting a compliance level 
or penalty determination sent to the manufacturer.
    (3) Party means the Agency and the manufacturer.
    (4) Presiding Officer shall mean an Administrative Law Judge 
appointed pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 3105 (see also 5 CFR part 930 as 
amended).
    (5) Environmental Appeals Board shall mean the Board within the 
Agency described in Sec. 1.25 of this title. The Administrator delegates 
authority to the Environmental Appeals Board to issue final decisions in 
appeals filed under this subpart. Appeals directed to the Administrator, 
rather than to the Environmental Appeals Board, will not be considered. 
This delegation of authority to the Environmental Appeals Board does not 
preclude the Environmental Appeals Board from referring an appeal or a 
motion filed under this subpart to the Administrator for decision when 
the Environmental Appeals Board, in its discretion, deems it appropriate 
to do so. When an appeal or

[[Page 760]]

motion is referred to the Administrator, all parties shall be so 
notified and the rules in this part referring to the Environmental 
Appeals Board shall be interpreted as referring to the Administrator.
    (c) Request for public hearing. (1) A manufacturer may request a 
hearing pursuant to Sec. 86.1113-87(f) if it disagrees with the 
Administrator's determination of compliance level or penalty calculation 
or both, or pursuant to Sec. 86.085-30(e)(6)(i) or Sec. 86.085-30(e)(7) 
if it disagrees with the Administrator's proposed suspension or voiding 
of a certificate of conformity. Requests for such a hearing shall be 
filed no later than 15 days:
    (i) After receipt of the Administrator's notification of NCP, if the 
compliance level is in the allowable range of non-conformity, or
    (ii) After completion of the Production Compliance Audit, if the 
compliance level exceeds the upper limit, or
    (iii) After receipt of the Administrator's notification of a 
proposed suspension or voiding of a certificate of conformity if the 
hearing is requested pursuant to Secs. 86.085-30(e)(6)(i) or 86.085-
30(e)(7), unless otherwise specified by the Administrator. The 
manufacturer shall simultaneously serve two copies of this request upon 
the Director of the Manufacturers Operations Division and file two 
copies with the Hearing Clerk. Failure of the manufacturer to request a 
hearing within the time provided constitutes a waiver of the right to a 
hearing. Subsequent to the expiration of the period for requesting a 
hearing as of right, the Administrator may, in his discretion and for 
good cause shown, grant the manufacturer a hearing to contest the 
compliance level or penalty calculation.
    (2) The request for a public hearing shall contain:
    (i) A statement as to which vehicle or engine subclasses or 
configurations are to be the subject of the hearing;
    (ii) A concise statement of the issues to be raised by the 
manufacturer at the hearing for each vehicle or engine subclass or 
configuration for which the manufacturer has requested the hearing. 
Provided, however, That in the case of a hearing requested under 
Sec. 86.1113-87(f), the hearing shall be restricted to the following 
issues:
    (A) Whether the compliance level was determined in accordance with 
the procedures in Sec. 86.1112-87(a); or
    (B) Whether the penalty was calculated in accordance with the 
procedures in Sec. 86.1113-87(a).
    (iii) A statement specifying reasons why the manufacturer believes 
it will prevail on the merits on each of the issues so raised; and
    (iv) A summary of the evidence which supports the manufacturer's 
position on each of the issues so raised.
    (3) A copy of all requests for public hearings shall be kept on file 
in the Office of the Hearing Clerk and shall be made available to the 
public during Agency business hours.
    (d) Summary decision. (1) In the case of a hearing requested under 
Sec. 86.1113-87(f) when it clearly appears from the data and other 
information contained in the request for a hearing that there is no 
genuine and substantial question of fact with respect to the issues 
specified in Sec. 86.1115-87(c)(2)(ii), the Administrator will enter an 
order denying the request for a hearing, and reaffirming the original 
compliance level determination or penalty calculation.
    (2) Any order issued under paragraph (d)(1) of this section shall 
have the force and effect of a final decision of the Administrator, as 
issued pursuant to paragraph (v)(4) of this section.
    (3) If the Administrator determines that a genuine and substantial 
question of fact does exist with respect to any of the issues referred 
to in paragraph (d)(1) of this section, he shall grant the request for a 
hearing and publish a notice of public hearing in accordance with 
paragraph (h) of this section.
    (e) Filing and service. (1) An original and two copies of all 
documents or papers required or permitted to be filed pursuant to this 
section shall be filed with the Hearing Clerk. Filing shall be deemed 
timely if mailed, as determined by the postmark to the Hearing Clerk 
within the time allowed by this section. If filing is to be accomplished 
by mailing, the documents shall be sent to the address set forth in the 
notice of public hearing as described in paragraph (h) of this section.

[[Page 761]]

    (2) To the maximum extent possible, testimony shall be presented in 
written form. Copies of written testimony shall be served upon all 
parties as soon as practicable prior to the start of the hearing. A 
certificate of service shall be provided on or accompany each document 
or paper filed with the Hearing Clerk. Documents to be served upon the 
Director of the Manufacturers Operations Division shall be sent by 
registered mail to: Director, Manufacturers Operations Division, U.S. 
Environmental Protection Agency (EN-340F), 401 M Street, SW., 
Washington, DC 20460. Service by registered mail is complete upon 
mailing.
    (f) Time. (1) In computing any period of time prescribed or allowed 
by this section, except as otherwise provided, the day of the act or 
event from which the designated period of time begins to run shall not 
be included. Saturdays, Sundays, and Federal legal holidays shall be 
included in computing any such period allowed for the filing of any 
document or paper, except that when such a period expires on a Saturday, 
Sunday, or Federal legal holiday, such period shall be extended to 
include the next following business day.
    (2) A prescribed period of time within which a party is required or 
permitted to do an act shall be computed from the time of service, 
except that when service is accomplished by mail, three days shall be 
added to the prescribed period.
    (g)(1) Consolidation. The Administrator of the Presiding Officer in 
his discretion may consolidate two or more proceedings to be held under 
this section for the purpose of resolving one or more issues whenever it 
appears that such consolidation will expedite or simplify consideration 
of such issues. Consolidation shall not affect the right of any party to 
raise issues that could have been raised if consolidation had not 
occurred.
    (2) If a vehicle or engine is determined to be in nonconformity 
during certification testing under subpart A of this part, then the 
manufacturer may wait to challenge the determination until after 
production compliance auditing and calculation of his penalty and may 
consolidate challenges to the determination of nonconformity and the 
compliance level determination or the penalty calculation, without 
losing any rights he would otherwise have had.
    (3) If a vehicle or engine is determined to be in nonconformity 
during selective enforcement auditing under subpart K of this part, then 
the manufacturer must wait to challenge the determination until after 
the compliance level determination and the penalty calculation, and must 
consolidate challenges to the determination of nonconformity and the 
compliance level determination or the calculation of the penalty.
    (h) Notice of public hearings. (1) Notice of public hearing under 
this section shall be given by publication in the Federal Register and 
by such other means as the Administrator finds appropriate to provide 
notice to the public. To the extent possible, hearings under this 
section shall be scheduled to commence within 30 days of receipt of the 
application in paragraph (c) of this section.
    (2) [Revised]
    (i) Amicus curiae. Persons not parties to the proceeding wishing to 
file briefs may do so by leave of the Presiding Officer granted on 
motion. A motion for leave shall identify the interest of the applicant 
and shall state the reasons why the proposed amicus brief is desirable.
    (j) Presiding Officer. The Presiding Officer shall have the duty to 
conduct a fair and impartial hearing in accordance with 5 U.S.C. 554, 
556 and 557 and to take all necessary action to avoid delay in the 
disposition of the proceedings and to maintain order. He shall have all 
power consistent with Agency rules and with the Administrative Procedure 
Act necessary to this end, including the following:
    (1) To administer oaths and affirmations;
    (2) To rule upon offers of proof and exclude irrelevant or 
repetitious material;
    (3) To regulate the course of the hearings and the conduct of the 
parties and their counsel therein;
    (4) To hold conferences for simplification of the issues or any 
other proper purpose;

[[Page 762]]

    (5) To consider and rule upon all procedural and other motions 
appropriate in such proceedings;
    (6) To require the submission of direct testimony in written form 
with or without affidavit whenever, in the opinion of the Presiding 
Officer, oral testimony is not necessary for full and true disclosure of 
the facts;
    (7) To enforce agreements and orders requiring access as authorized 
by law;
    (8) To require the filing of briefs on any matter on which he is 
required to rule;
    (9) To require any party or any witness, during the course of the 
hearing, to state his position on any issue;
    (10) To take or cause depositions to be taken whenever the ends of 
justice would be served thereby;
    (11) To make decisions or recommend decisions to resolve the 
disputed issues on the record of the hearing;
    (12) To issue, upon good cause shown, protective orders as described 
in paragraph (n) of this section.
    (k) Conferences. (1) At the discretion of the Presiding Officer, 
conferences may be held prior to or during any hearing. The Presiding 
Officer shall direct the Hearing Clerk to notify all parties of the time 
and location of such conference. At the discretion of the Presiding 
Officer, persons other than parties may attend. At a conference the 
Presiding Officer may:
    (i) Obtain stipulations and admissions, receive requests and order 
depositions to be taken, identify disputed issues of fact and law, and 
require or allow the submission of written testimony from any witness or 
party;
    (ii) Set a hearing schedule for as many of the following as are 
deemed necessary by the Presiding Officer:
    (A) Oral and written statements;
    (B) Submission of written direct testimony as required or authorized 
by the Presiding Officer;
    (C) Oral direct and cross-examination of a witness where necessary 
as prescribed in paragraph (p) of this section; and
    (D) Oral argument, if appropriate.
    (iii) Identify matters of which official notice may be taken;
    (iv) Consider limitation of the number of expert and other 
witnesses;
    (v) Consider the procedure to be followed at the hearing; and
    (vi) Consider any other matter that may expedite the hearing or aid 
in the disposition of the issue.
    (2) The results of any conference including all stipulations shall, 
if not transcribed, be summarized in writing by the Presiding Officer 
and made part of the record.
    (l) Primary discovery (exchange of witness lists and documents). (1) 
At a prehearing conference or within some reasonable time set by the 
Presiding Officer prior to the hearing, each party shall make available 
to the other parties the names of the expert and other witnesses the 
party expects to call, together with a brief summary of their expected 
testimony and list of all documents and exhibits which the party expects 
to introduce into evidence. Thereafter, witnesses, documents, or 
exhibits may be added and summaries of expected testimony amended upon 
motion by a party.
    (2) The Presiding Officer may upon motion by a party or other 
person, and for good cause shown, by order
    (i) Restrict or defer disclosure by a party of the name of a witness 
or a narrative summary of the expected testimony of a witness, and
    (ii) Prescribe other appropriate measures to protect a witness. Any 
party affected by any such action shall have an adequate opportunity, 
once he learns the name of a witness and obtains the narrative summary 
of this expected testimony, to prepare for the presentation of this 
case.
    (m) Other discovery. (1) Except as provided by paragraph (m)(1) of 
this section, further discovery under this paragraph shall be permitted 
only upon determination by the Presiding Officer:
    (i) That such discovery will not in any way unreasonably delay the 
proceeding;
    (ii) That the information to be obtained is not obtainable 
voluntarily; and
    (iii) That such information has significant probative value. The 
Presiding Officer shall be guided by the procedures set forth in the 
Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, where practicable, and the precedents 
thereunder, except that

[[Page 763]]

no discovery shall be undertaken except upon order of the Presiding 
Officer or upon agreement of the parties.
    (2) The Presiding Officer shall order depositions upon oral 
questions only upon a showing of good cause and upon a finding that:
    (i) The information sought cannot be obtained by alternative 
methods; or
    (ii) There is a substantial reason to believe that relevant and 
probative evidence may otherwise not be preserved for presentation by a 
witness at the hearing.
    (3) Any party to the proceeding desiring an order of discovery shall 
make a motion or motions therefor. Such a motion shall set forth:
    (i) The circumstances warranting the taking of the discovery;
    (ii) The nature of the information expected to be discovered; and
    (iii) The proposed time and place where it will be taken. If the 
Presiding Officer determines the motion should be granted, he shall 
issue an order for the taking of such discovery together with the 
conditions and terms thereof.
    (4) Failure to comply with an order issued pursuant to this 
paragraph may lead to the inference that the information to be 
discovered would be adverse to the person or party from whom the 
information was sought.
    (n) Protective orders, in camera proceedings. (1) Upon motion by a 
party or by the person from whom discovery is sought, and upon a showing 
by the movant that the disclosure of the information to be discovered, 
or a particular part thereof (other than emission data), would result in 
methods or processes entitled to protection as trade secrets of the 
person being divulged, the Presiding Officer may enter a protective 
order with respect to such material. Any protective order shall contain 
such terms governing the treatment of the information as may be 
appropriate under the circumstances to prevent disclosure outside the 
hearing, provided that the order shall state that the material shall be 
filed separately from other evidence and exhibits in the hearing. 
Disclosure shall be limited to parties to the hearing, their counsel and 
relevant technical consultants, and authorized representatives of the 
United States concerned with carrying out the Act. Except in the case of 
the government, disclosure may be limited to counsel for parties who 
shall not disclose such information to the parties themselves. Except in 
the case of the government, disclosure to a party or his counsel shall 
be conditioned on execution of a sworn statement that no disclosure of 
the information will be made to persons not entitled to receive it under 
the terms of the protective order. (No such provision is necessary where 
government employees are concerned because disclosure by them is subject 
to the terms of 18 U.S.C. 1905.)
    (2)(i) A party or person seeking a protective order may be permitted 
to make all or part of the required showing in camera. A record shall be 
made of such in camera proceedings. If the Presiding Officer enters a 
protective order following a showing in camera, the record of such 
showing shall be sealed and preserved and made available to the Agency 
or court in the event of appeal.
    (ii) Attendance at any in camera proceeding may be limited to the 
Presiding Officer, representatives of the Agency, and the person or 
party seeking the protective order.
    (3) Any party, subject to the terms and conditions of any protective 
order issued pursuant to paragraph (n)(1) of this section, that desires 
to make use of any in camera documents or testimony in the presentation 
of his case shall apply to the Presiding Officer by motion for 
permission to do so, and shall state the justification for the motion. 
The Presiding Officer, in granting any such motion, shall enter an order 
protecting the rights of the affected persons and parties as far as is 
practicable, and preventing unnecessary disclosure of such information 
and testimony concerning such information.
    (4) In the submittal of proposed findings, briefs, or other papers, 
counsel for all parties shall make a good faith attempt to refrain from 
disclosing the specific details of in camera documents and testimony. 
This shall not preclude references in such proposed findings, briefs, or 
other papers to such documents or testimony. This shall not preclude 
references in such proposed findings, briefs, or other papers marked

[[Page 764]]

``confidential,'' which shall become part of the in camera record.
    (o) Motions. (1) All motions, except those made orally during the 
course of the hearing, shall be in writing and shall state with 
particularity the grounds therefore, shall set forth the relief or order 
sought, and shall be filed with the Hearing Clerk and served upon all 
parties.
    (2) Within such time as may be fixed by the Environmental Appeals 
Board or the Presiding Officer, as appropriate, any party may serve and 
file an answer to the motion. The movant shall, if requested by the 
Environmental Appeals Board or the Presiding Officer, as appropriate, 
serve and file reply papers, within the time set by the request.
    (3) The Presiding Officer shall rule upon all motions filed or made 
prior to the filing of his decision or accelerated decision, as 
appropriate. The Environmental Appeals Board shall rule upon all motions 
filed prior to the appointment of a Presiding Officer and all motions 
filed after the filing of the decision of the Presiding Officer or 
accelerated decision. Oral argument of motions will be permitted only if 
the Presiding Officer or the Environmental Appeals Board, as 
appropriate, deems it necessary.
    (p) Evidence. (1) The official transcripts and exhibits, together 
with all papers and requests filed in the proceeding, shall constitute 
the record. Immaterial or irrelevent parts of an admissible document 
shall be segregated and excluded so far as practicable. Documents or 
parts thereof subject to a protective order under paragraph (n) of this 
section shall be segregated. Evidence may be received at the hearing 
even though inadmissible under the rules of evidence applicable to 
judicial proceedings. The weight to be given evidence shall be 
determined by its reliability and probative value.
    (2) The Presiding Officer shall allow the parties to examine and 
cross-examine a witness to the extent that such examination and cross-
examination is necessary for a full and true disclosure of the facts.
    (3) Rulings of the Presiding Officer on the admissibility of 
evidence, the propriety of examination and cross-examination and other 
procedural matters shall appear in the record.
    (4) Parties shall automatically be presumed to have taken exception 
to an adverse ruling.
    (q) Record. (1) Hearings shall be stenographically reported and 
transcribed and the original transcripts shall be part of the record. 
Copies of the records shall be filed with the Hearing Clerk and made 
available during Agency business hours for public inspection. Any person 
who wants a copy of the record of the hearing or any part thereof, 
except as provided in paragraph (n) of this section, shall be entitled 
to the same upon payment of the cost thereof.
    (2) The official transcripts and exhibits, together with all papers 
and requests filed in the proceeding, shall constitute the record.
    (r) Proposed findings, conclusions. (1) Within 30 days of the close 
of the reception of evidence, or within such longer time as may be fixed 
by the Presiding Officer, any party may submit for the consideration of 
the Presiding Officer proposed findings of fact, conclusions of law, and 
a proposed order, together with reasons therefore and briefs in support 
thereof. Such proposals shall be in writing, shall be served upon all 
parties, and shall contain adequate references to the record and 
authorities relied upon.
    (2) The record shall show the Presiding Officer's ruling on the 
proposed findings and conclusions except when his order disposing of the 
proceeding otherwise informs the parties of the action taken by him.
    (s) Decision of the Presiding Officer. (1) Unless extended by the 
Environmental Appeals Board, the Presiding Officer shall issue and file 
with the Hearing Clerk his decision within 30 days after the period for 
filing proposed findings has expired, as provided for in paragraph (c) 
of this section.
    (2) The Presiding Officer's decision shall become the decision of 
the Environmental Appeals Board (i) 10 days after issuance thereof, if 
no notice of intention to appeal as described in paragraph (t) of this 
section is filed, unless in the interim the Environmental Appeals Board 
shall have taken

[[Page 765]]

action to review or stay the effective date of the decision; or (ii) 5 
days after expiration of the period allowed by paragraph (t)(1) of this 
section for perfection of an appeal, if a notice of intention to appeal 
is filed but the appeal is not perfected, unless within that 5 day 
period the Environmental Appeals Board shall have taken action to review 
or stay the effective date of the decision;
    (3) The Presiding Officer's decision shall include a statement of 
findings and conclusions, as well as the reasons or basis therefore, 
upon all the material issues of fact or law presented on the record and 
an appropriate rule or order. Such decision shall be supported by 
substantial evidence and based upon a consideration of the whole record.
    (4) At any time prior to the issuance of his decision, the Presiding 
Officer may reopen the proceeding for the reception of further evidence. 
Except for the correction of clerical errors, the jurisdiction of the 
Presiding Officer is terminated upon the issuance of his decision.
    (t) Appeal from the decision of the Presiding Officer. (1) Any party 
to a proceeding may appeal the Presiding Officer's decision to the 
Environmental Appeals Board, Provided, That within 10 days after 
issuance of the Presiding Officer's decision such party files a notice 
of intention to appeal and an appeal brief within 20 days of such 
decision.
    (2) When an appeal is taken from the decision of the Presiding 
Officer, any party may file a brief with respect to such appeal. The 
brief shall be filed within the same time limits as the appellant's 
brief.
    (3) Any brief filed pursuant to this paragraph shall contain in the 
order indicated, the following:
    (i) A subject index of the matter in the brief, with page 
references, and a table of cases (alphabetically arranged), textbooks, 
statutes, and other material cited, with page references thereto;
    (ii) A specification of the issues intended to be appealed;
    (iii) The argument, presenting clearly the points of fact and law 
relied upon in support of the position taken on each issue, with 
specific page references to the record and legal or other material 
relied upon; and
    (iv) A proposed order for the Environmental Appeals Board's 
consideration if different from the order contained in the Presiding 
Officer's decision.
    (4) No brief in excess of 15 pages shall be filed without leave of 
the Environmental Appeals Board.
    (5) Oral argument will be allowed only in the discretion of the 
Environmental Appeals Board.
    (u) Review of the Presiding Officer's decision in absence of appeal. 
(1) If, after the expiration of the period for taking an appeal as 
provided for by paragraph (t) of this section, no notice of intention to 
appeal the decision of the Presiding Officer has been filed, or if 
filed, not perfected, the Hearing Clerk shall so notify the 
Environmental Appeals Board.
    (2) The Environmental Appeals Board, upon receipt of notice from the 
Hearing Clerk that no notice of intention to appeal has been filed, or 
if filed, not perfected pursuant to paragraph (t)(1) of this section, 
may, on its own motion, within 14 days after notice from the Hearing 
Clerk, review the decision of the Presiding Officer. Notice of the 
intention of the Environmental Appeals Board to review the decision of 
the Presiding Officer shall be given to all parties and shall set forth 
the scope of such review and the issues which shall be considered and 
shall make provisions for filing of briefs.
    (v) Decision of appeal or review. (1) Upon appeal from or review of 
the Presiding Officer's the Environmental Appeals Board shall consider 
such parts of the record as are cited or as may be necessary to resolve 
the issues presented and in addition shall, to the extent necessary or 
desirable, exercise all the powers which it could have exercised if it 
had presided at the hearing.
    (2) In rendering its decision, the Environmental Appeals Board shall 
adopt, modify, or set aside the findings, conclusions, and order 
contained in the decision of the Presiding Officer and shall set forth 
in its decision a statement of the reasons or bases for this action.
    (3) In those cases where the Environmental Appeals Board determines 
that it should have further information or additional views of the 
parties as to

[[Page 766]]

the form and content of the rule or order to be issued, the 
Environmental Appeals Board, in its discretion, may without final action 
pending the receipt of such additional information or views, or may 
remand the case to the Presiding Officer.
    (4) Any decision rendered under this paragraph which completed 
disposition of a case shall be a final decision of the Environmental 
Appeals Board.
    (w) Reconsideration. Any party may file with the Environmental 
Appeals Board a petition for reconsideration of such decision setting 
forth the relief desired and the grounds in support thereof. This 
petition must be filed within 20 days of the issuance of the 
Environmental Appeals Board's decision, and must be confined to new 
questions raised by the decision or final order and which the petitioner 
had no opportunity to argue before the Presiding Officer or the 
Environmental Appeals Board, unless otherwise specified by the 
Environmental Appeals Board. Subsequent to the expiration of the period 
for petitioning for reconsideration, the Environmental Appeals Board 
may, in its discretion and for good cause shown, grant the manufacturer 
a hearing to contest the compliance level or the penalty calculation 
even though such issues may have been raised in the previous proceeding. 
Any party desiring to oppose such a petition, shall file an answer 
thereto within 10 days after the filing of the petition. The filing of a 
petition for reconsideration shall not operate to stay the effective 
date of the decision or order or to toll the running of any statutory 
time period affecting such decision or order unless specifically so 
ordered by the Environmental Appeals Board.
    (x) Accelerated decision, dismissal. (1) The Presiding Officer, upon 
motion of any party or sua sponte, may at any time render an accelerated 
decision in favor of the Agency or the manufacturer as to all or any 
part of the proceeding, without further hearing or upon such limited 
additional evidence such as affidavits as he may require, or dismiss any 
party with prejudice, for any of the following reasons:
    (i) Failure to state a claim upon which relief can be granted, or 
direct or collateral estoppel;
    (ii) The lack of any genuine issue of material fact, causing a party 
to be entitled to judgment as a matter of law; or
    (iii) Such other and further reasons as are just, including 
specifically, failure to obey a procedural order of the Presiding 
Officer.
    (2) If under this paragraph an accelerated decision is issued as to 
all the issues and claims joined in the proceeding, the decision shall 
be treated for the purposes of these procedures as the decision of the 
Presiding Officer, as provided in paragraph (s) of this section.
    (3) If under this paragraph, judgment is rendered on less than all 
issues or claims in the proceeding, the Presiding Officer shall 
determine what material facts exist without substantial controversy and 
what material facts are actually and in good faith controverted. He 
shall thereupon issue an order specifying the facts which appear without

[58 FR 16047, Mar. 24, 1993, as amended at 59 FR 48521, Sept. 21, 1994]



Sec. 86.1207-90  Sampling and analytical system; evaporative emissions.

    The following is a description of the components which will be used 
in evaporative emissions sampling systems for testing under this 
subpart.
    (a) Evaporative emission measurement enclosure. The enclosure shall 
be readily sealable, rectangular in shape, with space for personnel 
access to all sides of the vehicle. When sealed, the enclosure shall be 
gas tight in accordance with Sec. 86.1217. Interior surfaces must be 
impermeable and non-reactive to hydrocarbons and to methanol (if used 
for methanol-fueled vehicles). One surface should be of flexible, 
impermeable and non-reactive material to allow for minor volume changes, 
resulting from temperature changes. Wall design should promote maximum 
dissipation of heat, and if artificial cooling is used, interior surface 
temperatures shall not be less than 68  deg.F (20  deg.C).
    (b) Evaporative emission hydrocarbon and methanol analyzers. (1) For 
gasoline and methanol-fueled vehicles a hydrocarbon analyzer utilizing 
the hydrogen flame ionization principle (FID) shall be used to monitor 
the atmosphere within the enclosure (a heated FID 
(HFID)(235 deg.15  deg.F (1138  deg.C)) is 
recommended for methanol-fueled vehicles). Instrument bypass flow may be 
returned to the enclosure. The FID shall have a response time to 90 
percent of final reading of less than 1.5 seconds, and be capable of 
meeting performance requirements expressed as a function of Cstd: where 
Cstd is the specific enclosure hydrocarbon level, in ppm, corresponding 
to the evaporative emission standard:
    (i) Stability of the analyzer shall be better than 0.01 Cstd ppm at 
zero and span over a 15-minute period on all ranges used.
    (ii) Repeatability of the analyzer, expressed as one standard 
deviation, shall be better than 0.005 Cstd ppm on all ranges used.

[[Page 769]]

    (2) For methanol-fueled vehicles, a methanol sampling and analyzing 
system is required in addition to the FID analyzer. The methanol 
sampling equipment shall consist of impingers for collecting the 
methanol sample and appropriate equipment for drawing the sample through 
the impingers. The analytical equipment shall consist of a gas 
chromatograph equipped with a flame ionization detector. (Note: For 1990 
through 1994 model year methanol-fueled vehicles, a HFID, calibrated on 
methanol may be used in place of the HFID calibrated on propane plus the 
methanol impingers and associated analytical equipment.)
    (3) The methanol sampling system described in paragraph (b)(2) of 
this section shall be designed such that, if a test vehicle emitted the 
maximum allowable level of methanol (based on all applicable standards) 
during any phase of the test, the measured concentration in the primary 
impinger would exceed either 25 mg/l or a concentration equal to 25 
times the limit of detection for the GC analyzer, and such that the 
primary impinger collects at least 90 percent of the analyte in the 
samples. The remaining analyte shall be collected by the secondary 
impinger. The provisions of this paragraph apply to the design of 
sampling systems, not to individual tests.
    (c) Evaporative emission hydrocarbon and methanol data recording 
system. (1) The electrical output of the FID used for measuring 
hydrocarbons (or hydrocarbons plus methanol as appropriate) shall be 
recorded at least at the initiation and termination of each diurnal or 
hot soak. The recording may be by means of a strip chart potentiometric 
recorder, by use of an on-line computer system or other suitable means. 
In any case, the recording system must have operational characteristics 
(signal to noise ratio, speed of response, etc.) equivalent to or better 
than those of the signal source being recorded, and must provide a 
permanent record of results. The record shall show a positive indication 
of the initiation and completion of each diurnal or hot soak along with 
the time elapsed between initiation and completion of each soak.
    (2) For the methanol sample, permanent records shall be made of the 
following: the volumes of deionized water introduced into each impinger, 
the rate and time of sample collection and the chromatogram of the 
analyzed sample.
    (d) Tank fuel heating system. The tank fuel heating system shall 
consist of a heat source and a temperature controller. A typical heat 
source is a 2,000 W heating pad. Other sources may be used as required 
by circumstances. The temperature controller may be manual, such as a 
variable voltage transformer, or may be automated. The heating system 
must not cause hot spots on the tank wetted surface which could cause 
local overheating of the fuel. Heat must not be applied to the vapor in 
the tank above the liquid fuel. The temperature controller must be 
capable of controlling the fuel tank temperature during the diurnal soak 
to within 3  deg.F (1.7  deg.C) of the following 
equation:
    (1) F = To + (0.4)t
    (2) For SI units, C = To + (2/9)t

Where:

F = Temperature in  deg.F.
C = Temperature in  deg.C.
t = Time since start of test in minutes.
To = Initial temperature in  deg.F (or in  deg.C for SI 
          units).

    (e) Temperature recording system. Strip chart recorder(s) or an 
automatic data processor shall be used to record enclosure ambient and 
vehicle fuel tank temperature at least once every minute. The 
temperature recorder or data processor shall have a time accuracy of 
15s, a time precision of 15s and be capable of 
resolving temperature to 0.75  deg.F (0.42 
deg.C). The temperature recording system (recorder and sensor) shall 
have an accuracy of 3  deg.F (1.7  deg.C). Two 
ambient temperature sensors, connected to provide one average output, 
shall be located in the enclosure. These sensors shall be located at the 
approximate vertical centerline of each side wall extending 4 inches 
(nominally) into the enclosure at a height of 30.5 ft 
(0.90.2 m). The vehicle fuel tank temperature sensor shall 
be located in the fuel tank so as to measure the temperature of the 
prescribed test fuel at the approximate mid-volume of the fuel. 
Manufacturers shall arrange that vehicles furnished

[[Page 770]]

for testing at Federal certification facilities be equipped with iron-
constantan Type J thermocouples for measurement of fuel tank 
temperature.
    (f) Purge blower. One or more portable or fixed blowers shall be 
used to purge the enclosure. The blowers shall have sufficient flow 
capacity to reduce the enclosure hydrocarbon and/or methanol 
concentration from the test level to the ambient level between tests. 
Actual flow capacity will depend upon the time available between tests.
    (g) Mixing blower. One or more blowers or fans with a total capacity 
of 250 to 750 cfm per 1,000 ft\3\ of enclosure volume shall be used to 
mix the contents of the enclosure during evaporative emission testing. 
The mixing blower(s) shall be arranged such that a uniform concentration 
is maintained. No portion of the air stream shall be directed towards 
the vehicle.

Sec. 86.1207-96  Sampling and analytical systems; evaporative emissions.

    (a) Testing enclosures--(1) Diurnal emission test. The enclosure 
shall be readily sealable, rectangular in shape, with space for 
personnel access to all sides of the vehicle. When sealed, the enclosure 
shall be gas tight in accordance with Sec. 86.1217-96. Interior surfaces 
must be impermeable and nonreactive to hydrocarbons (and to methanol, if 
the enclosure is used for methanol-fueled vehicles). The temperature 
conditioning system shall be capable of controlling the internal 
enclosure air temperature to follow the prescribed temperature versus 
time cycle as specified in Sec. 86.1233-96 and appendix II of this part, 
within an instantaneous tolerance of 3.0  deg.F of the 
nominal temperature versus time profile throughout the test, and an 
average tolerance of 2.0  deg.F over the duration of the test (where the 
average is calculated using the absolute value of each measured 
deviation). The control system shall be tuned to provide a smooth 
temperature pattern that has a minimum of overshoot, hunting, and 
instability about the desired long-term ambient temperature profile. 
Interior surface temperatures shall not be less than 40  deg.F at any 
time during the diurnal emission test. To accommodate the volume changes 
due to enclosure temperature changes, either a variable-volume or fixed-
volume enclosure may be used for diurnal emission testing:
    (i) Variable-volume enclosure. The variable-volume enclosure expands 
and contracts in response to the temperature change of the air mass in 
the enclosure. Two potential means of accommodating the internal volume 
changes are moveable panel(s), or a bellows design, in which impermeable 
bag(s) inside the enclosure expand and contract in response to internal 
pressure changes by exchanging air from outside the enclosure. Any 
design for volume accommodation must maintain the integrity of the 
enclosure as specified in Sec. 86.1217-96 over the specified temperature 
range. Any method of volume accommodation shall limit the differential 
between the enclosure internal pressure and the barometric pressure to a 
maximum value of 2.0 inches of water. The enclosure shall be 
capable of latching to a fixed volume. A variable-volume enclosure must 
be capable of accommodating a 7 percent change from its 
``nominal volume'' (see Sec. 86.1217-96(b)), accounting for temperature 
and barometric pressure variation during testing.
    (ii) Fixed-volume enclosure. The fixed-volume enclosure shall be 
constructed with rigid panels that maintain a fixed enclosure volume, 
and meet the following requirements.
    (A) The enclosure shall be equipped with a mechanism to maintain a 
fixed internal air volume. This may be accomplished either by 
withdrawing air at a constant rate and providing makeup air as needed, 
or by reversing the flow of air into and out of the enclosure in 
response to rising or falling temperatures. If inlet air is added 
continuously throughout the test, it should be filtered with activated 
carbon to provide a relatively low and constant hydrocarbon level. Any 
method of volume accommodation shall maintain the differential between 
the enclosure internal pressure and the barometric pressure to a maximum 
value of 2.0 inches of water.
    (B) The equipment shall be capable of measuring the mass of 
hydrocarbon and methanol (if the enclosure is used

[[Page 771]]

for methanol-fueled vehicles) in the inlet and outlet flow streams with 
a resolution of 0.01 gram per hour. A bag sampling system may be used to 
collect a proportional sample of the air withdrawn from and admitted to 
the enclosure. Alternatively, the inlet and outlet flow streams may be 
continuously analyzed using an on-line FID analyzer and integrated with 
the flow measurements to provide a continuous record of the mass 
hydrocarbon and methanol removal.
    (2) Running loss test. The enclosure shall be readily sealable, 
rectangular in shape, with space for personnel access to all sides of 
the vehicle. When sealed, the enclosure shall be gas tight in accordance 
with Sec. 86.1217-96. The enclosure may be equipped with a personnel 
door, provided that the enclosure can still meet the requirements of 
Sec. 86.1217-96 with the door installed. Interior surfaces must be 
impermeable and nonreactive to hydrocarbons and to methanol (if the 
enclosure is used for methanol-fueled vehicles). Interior surface 
temperatures shall not be less than 40  deg.F. If a running loss 
enclosure meets all the requirements of paragraph (a)(1) of this 
section, it may be used as a diurnal evaporative emission enclosure. The 
enclosure must contain a dynamometer that meets the requirements of 
Sec. 86.1208. Provisions shall be made to remove exhaust gases from the 
enclosure. During the running loss test, ambient temperatures must be 
maintained at 955  deg.F (952  deg.F on 
average). An air or oxygen cylinder with an attached self-contained 
breathing apparatus may be provided for the vehicle operator. The air 
required for vehicle operation shall be provided by one of the following 
methods:
    (i) The running loss enclosure may be equipped to supply air to the 
vehicle, at a temperature of 955  deg.F, from sources 
outside of the running loss enclosure directly into the operating 
engine's air intake system. Supplemental air requirements (e.g., for an 
air pump) shall be supplied by drawing air from the engine intake 
source.
    (ii) If it is shown to yield equivalent or superior results, the 
running loss enclosure may be designed with an air makeup system that 
brings outside air into the enclosure to accommodate the aspiration 
needs of the engine and any auxiliary devices. The makeup air shall be 
monitored to establish the background hydrocarbon levels (or hydrocarbon 
and methanol, levels, if applicable) of the makeup air. A filter may be 
used to provide dry air with a stable concentration of background 
hydrocarbon. The makeup-air vent shall be readily sealable for 
calibration of the enclosure and other purposes. For calculation of 
running loss emissions, it may be assumed that the hydrocarbon and 
methanol concentration in the air consumed by the vehicle is the same as 
that of the rest of the air in the enclosure.
    (3) Hot soak test. The hot soak test may be conducted by holding the 
vehicle in an enclosure that meets the requirements for either diurnal 
emission or running loss tests. The enclosure shall be configured to 
provide an internal enclosure ambient temperature of 9510 
deg.F for the first 5 minutes, and 955  deg.F 
(952  deg.F on average) for the remainder of the hot soak 
test.
    (i) If the hot soak test is conducted in the same enclosure as the 
immediately preceding running loss test, interior surface temperatures 
shall not be below 70  deg.F for the last 55 minutes of the hot soak 
test.
    (ii) If the hot soak test is not conducted in the same enclosure as 
the immediately preceding running loss test, interior surface 
temperatures shall not be below 70  deg.F for the duration of the hot 
soak test.
    (b) Evaporative emission hydrocarbon and methanol analyzers. (1) For 
gasoline-, liquefied petroleum gas-, natural gas- and methanol-fueled 
vehicles a hydrocarbon analyzer utilizing the hydrogen flame ionization 
principle (FID) shall be used to monitor the atmosphere within the 
enclosure (a heated FID (HFID)(235 deg.15  deg.F 
(1138  deg.C)) is recommended for methanol-fueled vehicles). 
Provided evaporative emission results are not affected, a probe may be 
used to detect or verify hydrocarbon sources during a running loss test. 
Instrument bypass flow may be returned to the enclosure. The FID shall 
have a response time to 90 percent of final reading of less than 1.5 
seconds.

[[Page 772]]

    (2) For methanol-fueled vehicles, a methanol sampling and analyzing 
system is required in addition to the FID analyzer. The methanol 
sampling equipment shall consist of impingers for collecting the 
methanol sample and appropriate equipment for drawing the sample through 
the impingers. The analytical equipment shall consist of a gas 
chromatograph equipped with a flame ionization detector.
    (3) The methanol sampling system described in paragraph (b)(2) of 
this section shall be designed such that, if a test vehicle emitted the 
maximum allowable level of methanol (based on all applicable standards) 
during any phase of the test, the measured concentration in the primary 
impinger would exceed either 25 mg/l or a concentration equal to 25 
times the limit of detection for the GC analyzer, and such that the 
primary impinger collects at least 90 percent of the analyte in the 
samples. The remaining analyte shall be collected by the secondary 
impinger. The provisions of this paragraph apply to the design of 
sampling systems, not to individual tests.
    (c) Evaporative emission hydrocarbon and methanol data recording 
system. (1) The electrical output of the FID used for measuring 
hydrocarbons (or hydrocarbons plus methanol, as appropriate) shall be 
recorded at least at the initiation and termination of each running loss 
and hot soak test, and at least at the initiation and termination of the 
enclosure sampling period(s) for the diurnal emission test, as described 
in Sec. 86.1233. The recording may be taken by means of a strip chart 
potentiometric recorder, by use of an on-line computer system or other 
suitable means. In any case, the recording system must have operational 
characteristics (signal-to-noise ratio, speed of response, etc.) 
equivalent to or better than those of the signal source being recorded, 
and must provide a permanent record of results. The record shall show a 
positive indication of the initiation and completion of each hot soak, 
running loss, or diurnal emission test (including initiation and 
completion of sampling period(s)), along with the time elapsed during 
each soak.
    (2) For the methanol sample, permanent records shall be made of the 
following: the volumes of deionized water introduced into each impinger, 
the rate and time of sample collection and the chromatogram of the 
analyzed sample.
    (d) Fuel temperature control system. Fuel temperatures of the test 
vehicle shall be controlled, as specified in Sec. 86.1234(g)(1)(xv), 
with the following combination of fans. The control system shall be 
tuned and operated to provide a smooth and continuous fuel temperature 
profile that is representative of the on-road temperature profile. The 
running loss test configuration should be designed to avoid heating or 
cooling the fuel tank's vapor space in a way that would cause vapor 
temperature behavior to be unrepresentative of the vehicle's on-road 
profile.
    (1) A vehicle cooling fan shall discharge air to the front of the 
vehicle. The fan shall be a road-speed modulated fan that is controlled 
to a discharge velocity that follows the dynamometer roll speed, at 
least up to speeds of 30 mph, throughout the driving cycle. If a warning 
light or gauge indicates that the vehicle's engine coolant has 
overheated, subsequent test runs on the that vehicle must include a 
vehicle cooling fan that follows the dynamometer roll speed at all 
speeds throughout the test cycle. The fan may direct airflow to both the 
vehicle radiator air inlet(s) and the vehicle underbody.
    (2) An additional fan may be used to discharge airflow from the 
front of the vehicle directly to the vehicle underbody to control fuel 
temperatures. Such a fan shall provide a total discharge airflow not to 
exceed 8,000 cfm.
    (3) Additional fans may be used to route heating or cooling air 
directly at the bottom of the vehicle's fuel tank. The air supplied to 
the tank shall be between 85 deg. and 160  deg.F, with a total discharge 
airflow not to exceed 4,000 cfm. For exceptional circumstances, 
manufacturers may direct up to 6,000 cfm at the bottom of the fuel tank 
with the advance approval of the Administrator.
    (4) Direct fuel heating may be needed for canister preconditioning, 
as specified in Sec. 86.1232(j)(2). Also, under exceptional 
circumstances in which airflow alone is insufficient to control fuel 
temperatures during the running loss

[[Page 773]]

test, direct fuel tank heating may be used (see Sec. 86.1234-
96(g)(1)(xv)). The heating system must not cause hot spots on the tank 
wetted surface that could cause local overheating of the fuel. Heat must 
not be applied directly to the tank's vapor space, nor to the liquid-
vapor interface.
    (e) Temperature recording system. A strip chart potentiometric 
recorder, an on-line computer system, or other suitable means shall be 
used to record enclosure ambient temperature during all evaporative 
emission test segments, as well as vehicle fuel tank temperature during 
the running loss test. The recording system shall record each 
temperature at least once every minute. The recording system shall be 
capable of resolving time to 15 s and capable of resolving 
temperature to 0.75  deg.F (0.42  deg.C). The 
temperature recording system (recorder and sensor) shall have an 
accuracy of 3  deg.F (1.7  deg.C). The recorder 
(data processor) shall have a time accuracy of 15 s and a 
precision of 15 s. Enclosures shall be equipped with two 
ambient temperature sensors, connected to provide one average output, 
located 3 feet above the floor at the approximate mid-length of each 
side wall of the enclosure and within 3 to 12 inches of each side wall. 
For diurnal emission testing, an additional temperature sensor shall be 
located underneath the vehicle to provide a temperature measurement 
representative of the air temperature under the fuel tank. For running 
loss testing, an ambient temperature sensor shall be located at the 
inlet to the fan that provides engine cooling. Manufacturers shall 
arrange that vehicles furnished for testing at federal certification 
facilities be equipped with temperature sensors for measurement of fuel 
tank temperatures. Vehicles shall be equipped with two temperature 
sensors installed to provide an average liquid fuel temperature. The 
temperature sensors shall be placed to measure the temperature at the 
mid-volume of the liquid fuel at a fill level of 40 percent of nominal 
tank capacity. An additional temperature sensor may be placed to measure 
vapor temperatures approximately at the mid-volume of the vapor space, 
though measurement of vapor temperatures is optional during the running 
loss test. In-tank temperature sensors are not required for the 
supplemental two-diurnal test sequence specified in Sec. 86.1230-96.
    (f) Pressure recording system. A strip chart potentiometric 
recorder, an on-line computer system, or other suitable means, shall be 
used to record the enclosure gage pressure for any testing in an 
enclosure, as well as the vehicle's fuel tank pressure during the 
running loss test and the outdoor driving procedure specified in 
Sec. 86.1229-85(d). Fuel tank pressure measurement and recording 
equipment are optional during the running loss test. The recording 
system shall record each pressure at least once every minute. The 
recording system shall be capable of resolving time to 15 s 
and capable of resolving pressure to 0.1 inches of water. 
The pressure recording system (recorder and sensor) shall have an 
accuracy of 1.0 inch of water. The recorder (data processor) 
shall have a time accuracy of 15 s and a precision of 
15 s. The pressure transducer shall be installed to measure 
the pressure in the vapor space of the fuel tank.
    (g) Purge blower. One or more portable or fixed blowers shall be 
used to purge the enclosure. The blowers shall have sufficient flow 
capacity to reduce the enclosure hydrocarbon and/or methanol 
concentration from the test level to the ambient level between tests. 
Actual flow capacity will depend upon the time available between tests.
    (h) Mixing blower. Blowers or fans shall be used to mix the 
enclosure contents during evaporative emission testing. The inlets and 
outlets of the air circulation blower(s) shall be configured to provide 
a well dispersed air circulation pattern that produces effective 
internal mixing and avoids significant temperature or hydrocarbon 
stratification. Maintenance of uniform concentrations throughout the 
enclosure is important to the accuracy of testing.
    (1) Diurnal emission test. Blowers or fans shall have a capacity of 
0.80.2 cfm per cubic foot of the nominal enclosure volume 
for mixing in the enclosure. Additional fans may be used to maintain a 
minimum wind speed of 5 mph (8 km/h) under the fuel tank of the test 
vehicle.

[[Page 774]]

    (2) Running loss test. Blowers or fans shall have a total capacity 
of at least 1.0 cfm per cubic foot of the nominal enclosure volume.
    (3) Hot soak test. Blowers or fans must have a capacity of 
0.80.2 cfm per cubic foot of the nominal enclosure volume. 
Circulated air shall not be aimed directly at the vehicle.
    (i) Point-source running loss measurement facility. Some system 
requirements pertain specifically to running loss testing by the point-
source method, in which emissions from potential sources are collected 
and routed to a sampling system. Emissions are sampled with the same 
equipment and techniques as for exhaust emission measurement. The test 
environment must contain a dynamometer that meets the requirements of 
Sec. 86.108. During the running loss test, ambient temperatures must be 
maintained at 955  deg.F (952  deg.F on 
average). An air or oxygen cylinder with an attached self-contained 
breathing apparatus may be provided for the vehicle operator.
    (1) The running loss vapor vent collection system shall be 
configured to collect all running loss emissions from each of the 
discrete point sources that function as vehicle fuel system vapor vents, 
and transport the collected vapor emissions to a CFV- or PDP-based 
dilution and measurement system. The collection system shall consist of 
a collector at each vehicle vapor vent, lengths of heated sample line 
connecting each collector to the inlet of the heated sample pump, and 
lengths of heated sample line connecting the outlet of the heated sample 
pump to the inlet of the running loss fuel vapor sampling system. Up to 
3 feet of unheated line connecting each of the vapor collectors to the 
heated sample lines shall be allowed. Each heated sample pump and its 
associated sample lines shall be maintained at a temperature between 175 
 deg.F and 200  deg.F to prevent condensation of fuel vapor in the 
sample lines. The heated sample pump(s) and its associated flow controls 
shall be configured and operated to draw a flow of ambient air into each 
collector at a flow rate of at least 0.67 cfm. The flow controls on each 
heated sampling system shall include an indicating flow meter that 
provides an alarm output to the data recording system if the flow rate 
drops below 0.67 cfm by more than 5 percent. The collector inlet for 
each discrete vapor vent shall be placed in proximity to the vent as 
necessary to capture any fuel vapor emissions without significantly 
affecting flow or pressure of the normal action of the vent. The 
collector inlets shall be designed to interface with the configuration 
and orientation of each specific vapor vent. For vapor vents that 
terminate in a tube or hose barb, a short length of tubing of an inside 
diameter larger throughout its length than the inside diameter of the 
vent outlet may be used to extend the vent into the mouth of the 
collector. For those vapor vent designs that are not compatible with 
such collector configurations, the vehicle manufacturer shall supply a 
collector that is configured to interface with the vapor vent design and 
that terminates in a fitting that is capable of capturing all vapor 
emitted from the vent. The Administrator may test for running losses by 
the point-source method without heating sample lines or pumps.
    (2) The running loss fuel vapor sampling system shall be a CFV- or 
PDP-based dilution and measurement system that further dilutes the 
running loss fuel vapors collected by the vapor vent collection 
system(s) with ambient air, collects continuously proportional samples 
of the diluted running loss vapors and dilution air in sample bags, and 
measures the total dilute flow through the sampling system over each 
test interval. In practice, the system shall be configured and operated 
in a manner that is directly analogous to an exhaust emissions constant 
volume sampling system, except that the input flow to the system is the 
flow from the running loss vapor vent collection system(s) instead of 
vehicle exhaust flow. The system shall be configured and operated to 
meet the following requirements:
    (i) The running loss fuel vapor sampling system shall be designed to 
measure the true mass of fuel vapor emissions collected by the running 
loss vapor vent collection system from the specified fuel vapor vents. 
The total volume of the mixture of running loss emissions and dilution 
air shall be

[[Page 775]]

measured and a continuously proportioned sample of volume shall be 
collected for analysis. Mass emissions shall be determined from the 
sample concentration and total flow over the test period.
    (ii) The PDP-CVS shall consist of a dilution air filter and mixing 
assembly, heat exchanger, positive-displacement pump, sampling system, 
and associated valves, pressure and temperature sensors. The PDP-CVS 
shall conform to the following requirements:
    (A) The gas mixture temperature, measured at a point immediately 
ahead of the positive-displacement pump, shall be within 10 
deg.F of the designed operating temperature at the start of the test. 
The gas mixture temperature variation from its value at the start of the 
test shall be limited to 10  deg.F during the entire test. 
The temperature measuring system shall have an accuracy and precision of 
2  deg.F.
    (B) The pressure gauges shall have an accuracy and precision of 
1.6 inches of water (0.4 kPa).
    (C) The flow capacity of the CVS shall not exceed 350 cfm.
    (D) Sample collection bags for dilution air and running loss fuel 
vapor samples shall be sufficient size so as not to impede sample flow.
    (iii) The CFV sample system shall consist of a dilution air filter 
and mixing assembly, a sampling venturi, a critical flow venturi, a 
sampling system and assorted valves, and pressure and temperature 
sensors. The CFV sample system shall conform to the following 
requirements:
    (A) The temperature measuring system shall have an accuracy and 
precision of 2  deg.F and a response time of 0.100 seconds 
of 62.5 percent of a temperature change (as measured in hot silicone 
oil).
    (B) The pressure measuring system shall have an accuracy and 
precision of 1.6 inches of water (0.4 kPa).
    (C) The flow capacity of the CVS shall not exceed 350 cfm.
    (D) Sample collection bags for dilution air and running loss fuel 
vapor samples shall be of sufficient size so as not to impede sample 
flow.
    (3) An on-line computer system or strip-chart recorder shall be used 
to record the following additional parameters during the running loss 
test sequence:
    (i) CFV (if used) inlet temperature and pressure.
    (ii) PDP (if used) inlet temperature, pressure, and differential 
pressure.

Sec. 86.1215-85  EPA heavy-duty vehicle (HDV) urban dynamometer driving schedule.

    (a) The EPA dynamometer driving schedule for heavy-duty vehicles is 
a 1060 second transient speed versus time cycle which is designed to 
simulate gasoline-fueled HDV operation in urban areas. A second by 
second listing of this schedule is given in appendix I(d) of this part. 
Thirty-three percent of the cycle is idle operation, and the average 
vehicle speed is 18.9 mph (30.4 km/hr). The Administrator will use this 
driving schedule when conducting evaporative emission tests, as 
described in Sec. 86.1230-96.
    (b) The driver should attempt to follow the target schedule as 
closely as possible. The speed tolerance at any given time for these 
schedules, or for a driver's aid chart approved by the Administrator, 
are as follows:
    (1) The upper limit is 4 mph (6.4 km/h) higher than the highest 
point on the trace within 1 second of the given time.
    (2) The lower limit is 4 mph (6.4 km/h) lower than the lowest point 
on the trace within 1 second of the given time.
    (3)(i) Speed variations greater than the tolerances (such as may 
occur during gear changes or braking spikes) are acceptable, provided 
they occur for less than 2 seconds on any occasion and are clearly 
documented as to the time and speed at that point of the driving 
schedule.
    (ii) When conducted to meet the requirements of Sec. 86.1229, up to 
three additional occurrences of speed variations greater than the 
tolerance are acceptable, provided they occur for less than 15 seconds 
on any occasion, and are clearly documented as to the time and speed at 
that point of the driving schedule.
    (4) Speeds lower than those prescribed are acceptable, provided the 
vehicle is operated at maximum available power during such occurrences.

analyzers may require more frequent calibration depending on particular 
equipment and uses.
    (2) Calibrate the dynamometer. If the dynamometer receives a weekly 
performance check (and remains within calibration) the monthly 
calibration need not be performed (see Sec. 86.1218).
    (3) Perform a hydrocarbon retention check and calibration on the 
evaporative emission enclosure (see Sec. 86.1217).
    (d) At least twice annually or after any maintenance perform a 
methanol retention check and calibration on the evaporative emission 
enclosure (see Sec. 86.1217).
    (e) Calibrate the methanol analyzer as often as required by the 
manufacturer or as necessary according to good practice.

Sec. 86.1217-90  Evaporative emission enclosure calibrations.

    The calibration of the evaporative emission enclosure consists of 
three parts: Initial and periodic determination of enclosure background 
emissions (hydrocarbons and methanol); initial determination of 
enclosure internal volume; and periodic hydrocarbon and methanol 
retention check and calibration. Methanol measurements may be omitted 
when methanol-fueled vehicles will not be tested in the evaporative 
enclosure.
    (a) Initial and periodic determination of enclosure background 
emissions. Prior to its introduction into service, annually thereafter, 
and after any repair which can affect the enclosure background 
emissions, the enclosure shall be checked to determine that it does not

[[Page 780]]

contain materials which will themselves emit hydrocarbons or 
methanol.\1\ Proceed as follows:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------


    \1\ Note: When methanol as well as hydrocarbons are present in the 
evaporative enclosure, the HFID hydrocarbon concentration measurement 
includes the partial response of the HFID to methanol plus the 
hydrocarbons. Determination of the HFID response to methanol, 
Sec. 86.1221, prior to its being placed in service is required for the 
determination of hydrocarbons.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    (1) Zero and span (calibrate if required) the hydrocarbon analyzer.
    (2) Purge the enclosure until a stable background hydrocarbon 
reading is obtained.
    (3) Turn on the mixing blower (if not already on).
    (4) Seal enclosure and measure background hydrocarbon concentration, 
background methanol, temperature, and barometric pressure. These are the 
initial readings CHCi, CCH3OHi, Ti, and 
PBi, for the enclosure background determination.
    (5) Allow the enclosure to stand undisturbed without sampling for 
four hours.
    (6) Measure the hydrocarbon and methanol concentration on the same 
FID. These are the final concentrations, CHCf and 
CCH3OHf. Also measure final temperature and barometric 
pressure.
    (7) Calculate the mass change of methanol, hydrocarbons, and 
hydrocarbons plus methanol in the enclosure according to the equations 
in paragraph (d) of this section. The enclosure background emissions 
(hydrocarbons plus methanol) shall not be greater than 0.4g for the 4 
hours.
    (b) Initial determination of enclosure internal volume. Prior to its 
introduction into service the enclosure internal volume shall be 
determined by the following procedure.
    (1) Carefully measure the internal length, width and height of the 
enclosure, accounting for irregularities (such as braces) and calculate 
the internal volume.
    (2) Perform an enclosure calibration check according to paragraphs 
(c) (1) through (7) of this section.
    (3) If the calculated mass does not agree within 2 
percent of the injected propane mass, then corrective action is 
required.
    (c) Hydrocarbon and methanol retention check and claibration. The 
hydrocarbon and methanol retention check provides a check upon the 
calculated volume and also measures the leak rate. Prior to its 
introduction into service and at least monthly thereafter the enclosure 
leak rate shall be determined as follows:
    (1) Zero and span (calibrate if required) the hydrocarbon analyzer.
    (2) Purge the enclosure until a stable background hydrocarbon 
reading is obtained.
    (3) Turn on the mixing blower (if not already on).
    (4) Seal enclosure and measure background hydrocarbon concentration, 
background methanol, temperature, and barometric pressure. These are the 
initial readings CHCi, CCH3OHi, Ti and 
PBi for the enclosure calibration.
    (5) Inject into the enclosure a known quantity of pure propane (4g 
is a convenient quantity) and a known quantity of pure methanol (4g is a 
convenient quantity) in gaseous form; i.e., at a temperature of at least 
150-155  deg.F (65-68  deg.C). The propane and methanol may be measured 
by volume flow or by mass measurement. The method used to measure the 
propane and methanol shall have an accuracy of 0.5 percent 
of the measured value. (Less accurate methods may be used with the 
advanced approval of the Administrator.) The methanol and propane tests 
do not need to be conducted simultaneously.
    (6) After a minimum of 5 minutes of mixing, analyze the enclosure 
atmosphere for hydrocarbon and methanol content, also record temperature 
and pressure. These measurements are the final readings for the 
enclosure calibration as well as the initial readings for the retention 
check.
    (7) To verify the enclosure calibration, calculate the mass of 
propane and the mass of methanol using the measurements taken in steps 
(4) and (6). See paragraph (d) of this section. This quantity must be 
within 2 percent of that measured in step 5 above. (For 
1991-1995 calendar years, the difference may exceed 2 
percent for methanol, provided it does not exceed 6 
percent.)

[[Page 781]]

    (8) Allow the enclosure to remain sealed for a minimum of 4 hours, 
analyze the enclosure atmosphere for hydrocarbon and methanol content; 
record temperature and barometric pressure. These are the final readings 
for the hydrocarbon and methanol retention check.
    (9) Calculate, using the equation in paragraph (d) of this section 
and the readings taken in step (8), the hydrocarbon and methanol mass. 
It may not differ by more than 4 percent of the value in 
step (6). (For 1991-1995 calendar year methanol-fueled vehicles, the 
difference may exceed 4 percent for methanol, provided it 
does not exceed 6 percent.)
    (d) Calculations. (1) The calculation of net methanol and 
hydrocarbon mass change is used to determine enclosure background and 
leak rate. It is also used to check the enclosure volume measurements. 
The methanol mass change is calculated from the initial and final 
methanol samples, temperature and pressure according to the following 
equation:

Sec. 86.1217-96  Evaporative emission enclosure calibrations.

    The calibration of evaporative emission enclosures consists of three 
parts: initial and periodic determination of enclosure background 
emissions (hydrocarbons and methanol); initial determination of 
enclosure internal volume; and periodic hydrocarbon and methanol 
retention check and calibration. Methanol measurements may be omitted if 
methanol-fueled vehicles will not be tested in the evaporative 
enclosure. Alternate calibration methods may be used if shown to yield 
equivalent or superior results, and if approved in advance by the 
Administrator; specifically, more extreme temperatures may be used for 
determining calibration without affecting the validity of test results.
    (a) Initial and periodic determination of enclosure background 
emissions. Prior to its introduction into service, annually thereafter, 
and after any repair that can affect the enclosure background emissions, 
the enclosure shall be checked to determine that it does not contain 
materials that will themselves emit hydrocarbons or methanol. When 
methanol as well as hydrocarbons are present in the evaporative 
enclosure, the HFID hydrocarbon concentration measurement includes the 
partial response of the HFID to methanol plus the hydrocarbons. 
Determination of the HFID response to methanol, Sec. 86.1221, prior to 
its being placed in service is required for the determination of 
hydrocarbons. Proceed as follows:
    (1) Prepare the enclosure. (i) Variable-volume enclosures may be 
operated in either latched or unlatched volume configuration, as 
described in paragraph (b)(1) of this section. Ambient temperatures 
shall be maintained at 963  deg.F throughout the 4-hour 
period.
    (ii) Fixed-volume enclosures may be operated with inlet and outlet 
flow streams either closed or open; if inlet and outlet flow streams are 
open, the air flowing into and out of the enclosure must be monitored in 
accordance with Sec. 86.107-96(a)(1)(ii)(B). Ambient temperatures shall 
be maintained at 963  deg.F throughout the 4-hour period.
    (iii) For running loss enclosures ambient temperatures shall be 
maintained at 953  deg.F throughout the 4-hour period. For 
running loss enclosures designed with a vent for makeup air, the 
enclosure shall be operated with the vent closed.
    (2) The enclosure may be sealed and the mixing fan operated for a 
period of up to 12 hours before the 4-hour background sampling period 
begins.
    (3) Zero and span (calibrate if required) the hydrocarbon analyzer.
    (4) Prior to the background determination, purge the enclosure until 
a stable background hydrocarbon reading is obtained.
    (5) Turn on the mixing blower (if not already on).
    (6) Seal enclosure and measure background hydrocarbon concentration, 
background methanol, temperature, and barometric pressure. These are the 
initial readings CHCi, CCH3OHi, and 
PBi, Ti for the enclosure background 
determination.
    (7) Allow the enclosure to stand undisturbed for four hours.
    (8) Measure the hydrocarbon concentration on the same FID and the 
methanol level. These are the final concentrations, CHCf and 
CCH3OHf. Also measure final temperature and 
barometric pressure.
    (9) Calculate the mass change of methanol, hydrocarbons, and 
hydrocarbons plus methanol in the enclosure according to the equations 
in paragraph (d) of this section.
    (i) Diurnal enclosures. The enclosure background emissions 
(hydrocarbons plus methanol) shall not be greater than 0.05g for the 4 
hours.
    (ii) Running loss enclosures. The enclosure background emissions 
(hydrocarbons plus methanol) shall not be greater than 0.2 grams for the 
4 hours.

[[Page 783]]

    (b) Initial determination of enclosure internal volume. Prior to its 
introduction into service the enclosure internal volume shall be 
determined by the following procedure:
    (1) Carefully measure the internal length, width and height of the 
enclosure, accounting for irregularities (such as braces) and calculate 
the internal volume. For variable-volume enclosures, latch the enclosure 
to a fixed volume when the enclosure is held at a constant temperature; 
this nominal volume shall be repeatable within 0.5 percent 
of the reported value.
    (2)-(3) [Reserved]
    (c) Hydrocarbon and methanol (organic gas) retention check and 
calibration. The hydrocarbon and methanol (if the enclosure is used for 
methanol-fueled vehicles) retention check provides a check upon the 
calculated volume and also measures the leak rate. The enclosure leak 
rate shall be determined prior to its introduction into service, 
following any modifications or repairs to the enclosure that may affect 
the integrity of the enclosure, and at least monthly thereafter. If six 
consecutive monthly retention checks are successfully completed without 
corrective action, the enclosure leak rate may be determined quarterly 
thereafter as long as no corrective action is required.
    (1) An enclosure to be used for the diurnal emission test (see 
Sec. 86.1233-96) shall be calibrated according to the following 
procedure. Calibration for hydrocarbon and methanol may be conducted 
simultaneously or in sequential test runs.
    (i) Zero and span (calibrate if required) the hydrocarbon analyzer.
    (ii) Purge the enclosure until a stable background hydrocarbon 
reading is obtained.
    (iii) Turn on the mixing blowers (if not already on).
    (iv) [Reserved]
    (v) Turn on the ambient temperature control system (if not already 
on) and adjust it for an initial temperature of 96  deg.F (36  deg.C). 
On variable-volume enclosures, latch the enclosure to the appropriate 
volume position for the set temperature. On fixed-volume enclosures 
close the outlet and inlet flow streams.
    (vi) When the enclosure stabilizes at 963  deg.F 
(362  deg.C), seal the enclosure and measure background 
hydrocarbon concentration, background methanol, temperature, and 
barometric pressure. These are the initial readings CHCi, 
CCH3OHi, Ti, and PBi for the 
enclosure calibration.
    (vii) Inject into the enclosure 2 to 6 grams of pure methanol at a 
temperature of at least 150  deg.F (65  deg.C) and/or 2 to 6 grams of 
pure propane. The injected quantity may be measured by volume flow or by 
mass measurement. The method used to measure the quantity of methanol 
and propane shall have an accuracy of 0.2 percent of the 
measured value (less accurate methods may be used with the advance 
approval of the Administrator).
    (viii) After a minimum of 5 minutes of mixing, analyze the enclosure 
atmosphere for hydrocarbon and methanol content, also record temperature 
and pressure. These measurements are the final readings for the 
enclosure calibration as well as the initial readings for the retention 
check.
    (ix) To verify the enclosure calibration, calculate the mass of 
propane and the mass of methanol using the measurements taken in 
paragraphs (c)(1)(vi) and (viii) of this section. See paragraph (d) of 
this section. This quantity must be within 2 percent of that 
measured in paragraph (c)(1)(vii) of this section. (For calendar years 
through 1995, the difference may exceed 2 percent for 
methanol, provided it does not exceed 6 percent.)
    (x) For variable-volume enclosures, unlatch the enclosure from the 
nominal volume configuration. For fixed-volume enclosures, open the 
outlet and inlet flow streams.
    (xi) Start cycling the ambient temperature from 96  deg.F to 72 
deg.F and back to 96  deg.F over a 24-hour period, according to the 
profile specified in Sec. 86.1233-96 and appendix II of this part, 
within 15 minutes of sealing the enclosure.
    (xii) At the completion of the 24-hour cycling period, analyze the 
enclosure atmosphere for hydrocarbon and methanol content; determine the 
net withdrawn methanol (in the case of diurnal emission testing with 
fixed-volume enclosures); record temperature and barometric pressure. 
These are the final

[[Page 784]]

readings for the hydrocarbon and methanol retention check. The final 
hydrocarbon and methanol mass, calculated in paragraph (d) of this 
section, shall be within 3 percent of that determined in paragraph 
(c)(1)(viii) of this section. (For calendar years through 1995, the 
difference may exceed 3 percent for methanol, provided it 
does not exceed 6 percent.)
    (2) An enclosure to be used for the running loss test (see 
Sec. 86.1234-96) shall meet the calibration and retention requirements 
of Sec. 86.1217-90(c).
    (3) Enclosures calibrated according to the procedures specified in 
either paragraph (c)(1) or (c)(2) of this section may be used for hot 
soak testing (see Sec. 86.1238).
    (4) The Administrator, upon request, may waive the requirement to 
comply with 2 percent methanol recovery tolerance, and/or 
the 3 percent retention tolerance and instead require 
compliance with higher tolerances (not to exceed 6 percent 
for recoveries and 8 for retention), provided that:
    (i) The Administrator determines that compliance with these 
specified tolerances is not practically feasible; and
    (ii) The manufacturer makes information available to the 
Administrator which indicates that the calibration tests and their 
results are consistent with good laboratory practice, and that the 
results are consistent with the results of calibration testing conducted 
by the Administrator.
    (d) Calculations. (1) The calculation of net methanol and 
hydrocarbon mass change is used to determine enclosure background and 
leak rate. It is also used to check the enclosure volume measurements. 
The methanol mass change is calculated from the initial and final 
methanol samples, the net withdrawn methanol (in the case of diurnal 
emission testing with fixed-volume enclosures), and initial and final 
temperature and pressure according to the following equation:

    (2) The hydrocarbon mass change is calculated from the initial and 
final FID readings of hydrocarbon concentration, methanol concentration 
with FID response to methanol, temperature, and pressure according to 
the following equation:

in the case of fixed-volume enclosures for diurnal emission testing, g.
    (xii) MHC,in=mass of hydrocarbon entering the enclosure,

    (3) For variable-volume enclosures, defined in 
Sec. 86.1207(a)(1)(i), the following simplified form of the hydrocarbon 
mass change equation may be used:
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR06OC93.123

    (e) Calibration of equipment for point-source testing of running 
losses. For the point-source method, the running loss fuel vapor 
sampling system shall be calibrated as a CVS system, as specified in 
Sec. 86.119, with the additional specification that the vapor sampling 
system verification be conducted as follows:
    (1) The following ``gravimetric'' technique can be used to verify 
that the vapor sampling system and analytical instruments can accurately 
measure a mass of gas that has been injected into the system. If the 
vapor sampling system will be used only in the testing of petroleum-
fueled engines, system verification may be performed using propane. If 
the vapor sampling system will be used with methanol-fueled vehicles as 
well as petroleum-fueled vehicles, the system verification performance 
check must include a methanol check in addition to the propane check. 
(Verification can also be accomplished by constant flow metering using 
critical flow orifice devices.)
    (i) Obtain a small cylinder that has been charged with pure propane 
gas. Obtain another small cylinder that has been charged with pure 
methanol if the system will be used for methanol-fueled vehicle testing. 
Since this cylinder will be heated to 150-155  deg.F, care must be taken 
to ensure that the liquid volume of methanol placed in the cylinder does 
not exceed approximately one-half of the total volume of the cylinder.
    (ii) Determine a reference cylinder weight to the nearest 0.01 
grams.
    (iii) Operate the vapor sampling system in the normal manner and 
release a known quantity of pure propane into the most frequently used 
fuel vapor collector during the sampling period (approximately 5 
minutes).
    (iv) Continue to operate the vapor sampling system in the normal 
manner and release a known quantity of pure

[[Page 786]]

methanol into the system during the sampling period (approximately 5 
minutes).
    (v) The calculations of Sec. 86.1244 are performed in the normal 
way, except in the case of propane. The density of propane (17.30 g/
ft\3\/carbon atom (0.6109 kg/m\3\/carbon atom)) is used in place of the 
density of exhaust hydrocarbons. In the case of methanol, the density of 
37.71 g/ft\3\ (1.332 kg/m\3\) is used.
    (vi) The gravimetric mass is subtracted from the vapor sampling 
system measured mass and then divided by the gravimetric mass to 
determine the percent accuracy of the system.
    (vii) The cause for any discrepancy greater than 2 
percent must be found and corrected.
    (2) This procedure shall be conducted in the point-source running 
loss test environment with the collector installed in a vehicle in the 
normal test configuration. The fuel of the test vehicle shall either be 
diesel, or it shall be kept under 100  deg.F (38  deg.C). Two to six 
grams of pure propane and two to six grams of pure methanol shall be 
injected into the collector while the vehicle is operated over one 
Heavy-Duty Vehicle Urban Dynamometer Driving Schedule, as described in 
Sec. 86.1215 and appendix I of this part. The propane and methanol 
injections shall be conducted at the ambient temperature of 
955  deg.F (353  deg.C).

60 FR 43900, Aug. 23, 1995]



Sec. 86.1218-85  Dynamometer calibration.

    (a) The dynamometer shall be calibrated at least once each month or 
performance verified at least once each week and then calibrated as 
required. The calibration shall consist of the manufacturer's 
recommended calibration procedure plus a determination of the 
dynamometer frictional power absorption. If the dynamometer is to be 
used for driving only the reference (transient) schedule, the frictional 
power absorption needs to be determined only at 50.0 mph (80.5 km/hr). 
If the dynamometer is to be used for driving the steady-state cycle, the 
frictional power absorption needs to be determined through the range of 
15 to 50 mph. One method for determining dynamometer frictional power 
absorption at 50.0 mph (80.5 km/hr) is described below. The same general 
method can be used at other speeds. Other methods may be used if shown 
to yield equivalent results. The measured absorbed road power includes 
the dynamometer friction as well as the power absorbed by the power 
absorption unit. The dynamometer is driven above the test speed range. 
The device used to drive the dynamometer is then disengaged from the 
dynamometer and the roll(s) is (are) allowed to coastdown. The kinetic 
energy of the system is dissipated by the dynamometer. This method 
neglects the variations in roll bearing friction due to the drive axle 
weight of the vehicle. In the case of dynamometers with paired rolls, 
the inertia and power absorption of the free (rear) roll may be 
neglected if its inertia is less than 3.0 percent of the total 
equivalent inertia required for vehicle testing.
    (1) Devise a method to determine the speed of the roll(s) to be 
measured for power absorption. A fifth wheel, revolution pickup, or 
other suitable means may be used.
    (2) Place a vehicle on the dynamometer or devise another method of 
driving the dynamometer.
    (3) If the dynamometer is capable of simulating more than a single 
inertia mass, engage the inertial flywheel or other inertial simulation 
system for the most common vehicle mass category for which the 
dynamometer is used. In addition, other vehicle mass categories may be 
calibrated, if desired.
    (4) Drive the dynamometer up to 50 mph (80.5 km/hr).
    (5) Record indicated road power.
    (6) Drive the dynamometer up to 60 mph (96.9 km/hr).
    (7) Disengage the device used to drive the dynamometer.
    (8) Record the time for the dynamometer roll(s) to coastdown from 
55.0 mph (88.5 km/hr) to 45.0 mph (72.4 km/hr).
    (9) Adjust the power absorption unit to a different level.
    (10) Repeat steps (4) to (8) above sufficient times to cover the 
range of road power used.

[[Page 787]]

    (11) Calculate absorbed road power (HPd). (See paragraph 
(c) of this section.)
    (12) Plot indicated road load power at 50 mph (80.5 km/hr) versus 
road load power at 50 mph (80.5 km/hr).
    (b) The performance check consists of conducting a dynamometer 
coastdown and comparing the coastdown time to that recorded during the 
last calibration. If the coastdown times differ by more than 1 second or 
by 5 percent of the time recorded during the last calibration, whichever 
is greater, a new calibration is required.
    (c) Calculations. The road load power actually absorbed by each roll 
assembly (or roll-inertia weight assembly) of the dynamometer is 
calculated from the following equation:

HPd = (\1/2\) (W/32.2) (V12--
          V22)/550t

Where:
HPd = Power, horsepower (kilowatts)
W = Equivalent inertia, lb (kg)
V 1 = Initial velocity, ft/s (m/s) (55 mph = 88.5 km/h = 
          80.67 ft/s = 24.58 m/s)
V2 = Final velocity, ft/s (m/s) (45 mph = 72.4 km/h = 66 ft/s 
          = 20.11 m/s)
t = Elapsed time for rolls to coast from 55 mph to 45 mph (88.5 to 72.4 
          km/hr).

(Expressions in parenthesis are for SI units). When the coastdown is 
from 55 to 45 mph (88.5 to 72.4 km/hr) the above equation reduces to:

HPd = 0.06073 (W/t)

For SI units:
HP d = 0.09984 (W/t)

    The total road load power actually absorbed by the dynamometer is 
the sum of the absorbed road load power of each roll assembly.

    The FID hydrocarbon analyzer shall receive the following initial and 
periodic calibrations.
    (a) Initial and periodic optimization of detector response. Prior to 
its introduction into service and at least annually thereafter, the FID 
hydrocarbon analyzer shall be adjusted for optimum hydrocarbon response. 
(The HFID used with methanol-fueled vehicles shall be operated at 
235 deg. 15  deg.F (113 deg. 8  deg.C)). 
Analyzers used with gasoline-fuel and liquefied petroleum gas-fuel shall 
be optimized using propane. Analyzers used with natural gas-fuel may be 
optimized using methane, or if calibrated using propane the FID response 
to methane shall be determined and applied to the FID hydrocarbon 
reading. Alternate methods yielding equivalent results may be used, if 
approved in advance by the Administrator.
    (1) Follow the manufacturer's instructions or good engineering 
practice for instrument startup and basic operating adjustment using the 
appropriate FID fuel and zero-grade air.
    (2) Optimize on the most common operating range. Introduce into the 
analyzer a propane (or methane as appropriate) in air mixture with a 
propane (or methane as appropriate) concentration equal to approximately 
90 percent of the most common operating range.
    (3) Select an operating FID fuel flow rate that will give near 
maximum response and least variation in response with minor fuel flow 
variations.
    (4) To determine the optimum air flow, use the FID fuel flow setting 
determined above and vary air flow.
    (5) After the optimum flow rates have been determined, record them 
for future reference.
    (b) Initial and periodic calibration. Prior to its introduction into 
service and monthly thereafter the FID hydrocarbon analyzer shall be 
calibrated on all normally used instrument ranges, and, if applicable, 
the methanol response factor shall be determined (paragraph (c) of this 
section). Use the same flow rate as when analyzing sample.
    (1) Adjust analyzer to optimize performance.
    (2) Zero the hydrocarbon analyzer with zero-grade air.
    (3) Calibrate on each normally used operating range with propane in 
air (or methane in air as appropriate) calibration gases having nominal 
concentrations of 15, 30, 45, 60, 75 and 90 percent of that range. For 
each range calibrated, if the deviation from a least squares best-fit 
straight line is two percent or less of the value at each data point, 
concentration values may be calculated by use of a single calibration 
factor for that range. If the deviation exceeds two percent at any 
point, the best-fit non-linear equation which

[[Page 788]]

represents the data to within two percent of each test point shall be 
used to determine concentration.
    (c) FID response factor to methanol. When the FID analyzer is to be 
used for the analysis of hydrocarbon samples containing methanol, the 
methanol response factor of the analyzer shall be established. The 
methanol response factor shall be determined at several concentrations 
in the range of concentrations in the exhaust sample, using either bag 
samples or gas bottles meeting the requirements of Sec. 86.114.
    (1) The bag sample of methanol for analysis in the FID, if used, 
shall be prepared using the apparatus shown in Figure M90-1. A known 
volume of methanol is injected, using a microliter syringe, into the 
heated mixing zone (250  deg.F (121  deg.C) of the apparatus. The 
methanol is vaporized and swept into the sample bag with a known volume 
of zero grade air measured by a gas flow meter with an accuracy of 
2 percent.

[[Page 789]]

    (2) The bag sample is analyzed using the FID.
    (3) The FID response factor, r, is calculated as follows:
    r = FIDppm/SAMppm

Where:
    (i) r = FID response factor.

    (ii) FIDppm = FID reading in ppmC.
    (iii) SAMppm=methanol concentration in the sample bag, or gas 
bottle, in ppmC. SAMppm for sample bags:

Where:
    (iv) 0.02406 = Volume of one mole at 29.92 in Hg and 68  deg.F, 
m\3\.
    (v) Fuel injected = Volume of methanol injected, ml.
    (vi) Fuel density = Density of methanol, 0.7914 g/ml.
    (vii) Air volume = Volume of zero grade air, m\3\.
    (viii) Mol. Wt. CH3OH = 32.04.
    (d) The gas chromatograph used in the analysis of methanol samples 
shall be calibrated at least monthly following manufacturers' 
recommended procedures (certain equipment may require more frequent 
calibration based on use and good engineering judgment).
    (e) FID response factor to methane. When the FID analyzer to be used 
for the analysis of natural gas-fueled vehicle hydrocarbon samples has 
been calibrated using propane, the methane response factor of the 
analyzer shall be established. To determine the total hydrocarbon FID 
response to methane, known methane in air concentrations traceable to 
National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) shall be analyzed 
by the FID. Several methane concentrations shall be analyzed by the FID 
in the range of concentrations in the exhaust sample. The total 
hydrocarbon FID response to methane is calculated as follows:


rCH4 = FIDppm/SAMppm

Where:
    (1) rCH4 = FID response factor to methane.
    (2) FIDppm = FID reading in ppmC.
    (3) SAMppm = the known methane concentration in ppmC.

Sec. 86.1226-85  Calibration of other equipment.

    Other test equipment used for testing shall be calibrated as often 
as required by the manufacturer or as necessary according to good 
practice.



Sec. 86.1227-90  Test procedures; overview.

    (a) The overall test consists of prescribed sequences of fueling, 
parking, and operating conditions. Vehicles are tested only for 
evaporative emissions.
    (b) The evaporative emission test (gasoline-fueled and methanol-
fueled vehicles) is designed to determine hydrocarbon and/or methanol 
evaporative emissions as a consequence of diurnal temperature 
fluctuation, urban driving and hot soaks during engine-off periods. It 
is associated with a series of events representative of heavy-duty 
vehicle operation, which result in hydrocarbon and/or methanol vapor 
losses. The test procedure is designed to measure:
    (1) Diurnal breathing losses resulting from daily temperature 
changes, measured by the enclosure technique;
    (2) Running losses from suspected sources (if indicated by 
engineering analysis or vehicle inspection) resulting from a simulated 
trip on a chassis dynamometer, measured by carbon traps; and
    (3) Hot soak losses which result when the vehicle is parked and the 
hot engine is turned off, measured by the enclosure technique.
    (c) Background concentrations are measured for all species for which 
emissions measurements are made. For evaporative testing, this requires 
measuring initial concentrations. (When testing methanol-fueled 
vehicles, manufacturers may choose not to measure background 
concentrations of methanol, and then assume that the concentrations are 
zero during calculations.)

    (a) The overall test consists of prescribed sequences of fueling, 
parking, and operating conditions. Vehicles are tested only for 
evaporative emissions.
    (b) The evaporative emission test (gasoline-fueled, natural gas-
fueled, liquefied petroleum gas-fueled, and methanol-fueled vehicles) is 
designed

[[Page 791]]

to determine hydrocarbon and/or methanol evaporative emissions as a 
consequence of diurnal temperature fluctuation urban driving and hot 
soaks during engine-off periods. It is associated with a series of 
events representative of heavy-duty vehicle operation, which result in 
hydrocarbon and/or methanol vapor losses. The test procedure is designed 
to measure:
    (1) Diurnal emissions resulting from daily temperature changes (as 
well as relatively constant resting losses), measured by the enclosure 
technique (see Sec. 86.1233);
    (2) Running losses resulting from a simulated trip on a chassis 
dynamometer, measured by the enclosure or point-source technique (see 
Sec. 86.1234; this test is not required for gaseous-fueled vehicles); 
and
    (3) Hot soak losses, which result when the vehicle is parked and the 
hot engine is turned off, measured by the enclosure technique (see 
Sec. 86.1238).
    (c) Background concentrations are measured for all species for which 
emissions measurements are made. For evaporative testing, this requires 
measuring initial concentrations. (When testing methanol-fueled 
vehicles, manufacturers may choose not to measure background 
concentrations of methanol, and then assume that the concentrations are 
zero during calculations.)

60 FR 34363, June 30, 1995]



Sec. 86.1228-85  Transmissions.

    (a) All test conditions, except as noted, shall be run in a manner 
representative of in-use operation, and where appropriate, according to 
the manufacturer's recommendation to the ultimate purchaser.
    (b) Except for the first idle mode, idle modes less than one minute 
in length shall be run with automatic transmissions in ``Drive'' and the 
wheels braked; manual transmissions shall be in gear with the clutch 
disengaged, except first idle. The first idle mode and idle modes longer 
than one minute in length shall be run with automatic transmissions in 
``Neutral,'' and manual transmissions shall be in ``Neutral'' with the 
clutch engaged (clutch may be disengaged for engine start-up).
    (c) The vehicle shall be driven with minimum accelerator pedal 
movement to maintain the desired operation.
    (d) Accelerations shall be driven smoothly according to the 
manufacturer's recommendation to the ultimate purchaser. For manual 
transmissions, the operator shall accomplish each shift with minimum 
time. If the vehicle cannot accelerate at the specified rate, the 
vehicle shall be operated at maximum available power until the vehicle 
speed reaches the value prescribed for that time in the driving 
schedule.
    (e) For those deceleration modes which decelerate to zero, manual 
transmission clutches shall be depressed when the speed drops below 15 
mph (24.1 km/hr), when engine roughness is evident, or when engine 
stalling is imminent.



Sec. 86.1229-85  Dynamometer load determination and fuel temperature profile.

    (a) Flywheels, electrical or other means of simulating inertia shall 
be used. The value of equivalent inertia weight shall be within 250 
pounds of the loaded vehicle weight (LVW). Loaded vehicle weight is 
defined as follows:
    (1) For test vehicles which have an actual weight less than 0.5  x  
(GVWR),

LVW = 0.5  x  (Gross Vehicle Weight Rating)

    (2) For test vehicles which have an actual weight (As tested) 
greater than 0.5  x  (GVWR),

LVW = Actual Weight of Test Vehicle,

    (b) Power absorption unit adjustment. (1) The power absorption unit 
shall be adjusted to reproduce road load power at 50 mph true speed. The 
indicated road load power setting shall take into account the 
dynamometer friction. The relationship between road load (absorbed) 
power and indicated road load power for a particular dynamometer shall 
be determined by the procedure outlined in Sec. 86.1218-85 or other 
suitable means.
    (2) The road load power used shall be determined from the following 
equation:


[[Page 792]]


RLP = 0.67(H - 0.75)W + 0.00125[LVW - (N  x  DW)]

Where:
RLP = Road Load Power at 50 mph (horsepower).
H = Vehicle overall maximum height (feet).
W = Vehicle overall maximum width (feet).
LVW = Loaded vehicle weight (pounds).
DW = Vehicle weight supported by the dynamometer (pounds).
N = Number of dynamometer rolls supporting a tire.


or the manufacturer may determine the road load power by an alternate 
procedure (including coastdown). Such alternate procedures shall exhibit 
good engineering judgement and shall be subject to review upon request 
by the Administrator. For vehicles which the manufacturer chooses to 
certify by the optional light-duty truck certification provision 
(Sec. 86.082-1(b)), the evaporative emission test procedure (and 
standard) will be that specified by the light-duty truck regulations.
    (c) [Reserved]
    (d) Fuel temperature profile--(1) General requirements. (i) To be 
tested for running losses, as specified in Sec. 86.1234, a vehicle must 
have a fuel temperature profile. The following procedure is used to 
generate the fuel temperature profile, which serves as a target for 
controlling fuel temperatures during the running loss test. This profile 
represents the fuel temperature change that occurs during on-road 
driving. If a vehicle has more than one fuel tank, a profile shall be 
established for each tank. Manufacturers may also simultaneously 
generate a profile for vapor temperatures.
    (ii) If a manufacturer uses a vehicle model to develop a profile to 
represent multiple models, the vehicle model selected must have the 
greatest expected fuel temperature increase during driving of all those 
models it represents. Also, manufacturers must select test vehicles with 
any available vehicle options that increase fuel temperatures during 
driving (for example, any feature that limits underbody airflow).
    (iii) Manufacturers may conduct testing to develop fuel temperature 
profiles in a laboratory setting, subject to approval by the 
Administrator. The laboratory facility should simulate outdoor testing 
to reproduce fuel and vapor temperature behavior over the specified 
driving schedule. The design of the laboratory facility should include 
consideration of any parameters that may affect fuel temperatures, such 
as solar loading, pavement heat, and relative wind velocities around and 
underneath the test vehicle. Indoor testing to develop the fuel 
temperature profiles must be conducted with little or no vehicle-
specific adjustment of laboratory parameters. Manufacturers would need 
to maintain an ongoing demonstration of correlation between laboratory 
and outdoor measurement of fuel temperatures. Specifically, fuel 
temperatures and pressures from indoor driving should be at least as 
high as measured when driving outdoors according to the procedures 
described in this section.
    (iv) Small-volume manufacturers, as defined in Sec. 86.094-14(b)(1), 
may use an alternate method for generating fuel temperature profiles, 
subject to the approval of the Administrator.
    (v) The Administrator may conduct testing to establish any vehicle's 
temperature profiles or to verify compliance with fuel tank pressure 
requirements.
    (2) Vehicle instrumentation. (i) The vehicle must be equipped with 
temperature sensors and pressure transducers, as described in 
Sec. 86.1207-96(e) and (f), and a driver's aid, which shall be 
configured to provide the test driver with the desired vehicle speed vs. 
time trace and the actual vehicle speed.
    (ii) A computer, data logger, or strip chart data recorder shall 
record the following parameters at a minimum during the test run:
    (A) Desired speed;
    (B) Actual speed;
    (C) Instantaneous average liquid fuel temperature (Tliq); 
and
    (D) Vapor space pressure (the Administrator may omit measurement of 
fuel tank pressure).
    (iii) The data recording system described in paragraph (d)(2)(ii) of 
this section shall be capable of resolving time to 1 s, 
capable of resolving temperature to 2  deg.F, capable of 
resolving pressure to 1.0 inch of water, and capable of 
resolving speed to 1 mph. The temperature and pressure 
signals shall be recorded at intervals of up to 1

[[Page 793]]

minute; speed signals shall be recorded at intervals of up to 1 second.
    (3) Ambient conditions. The procedure shall be run under the 
following ambient conditions. Conditions should be representative of 
sunny summer days.
    (i) Starting ambient temperature (Tamb,o) shall be at 
least 95  deg.F, steady or increasing (no more than 2  deg.F drop) 
during the procedure. Ambient temperature shall be measured and recorded 
in regular intervals of at least once every 5 minutes. Measure ambient 
temperature with the following requirements (based on Federal Standard 
for Siting Meteorological Sensors at Airports, FCM-S4-1987). The sensors 
shall be mounted 51 feet (1.50.3 meters) above 
ground level. The sensors shall be protected from radiation from the 
sun, sky, earth, and any other surrounding objects, but at the same time 
be adequately ventilated. The sensors shall be installed in such a 
position as to ensure that measurements are representative of the free 
air circulation in the locality and not influenced by artificial 
conditions such as large buildings, cooling towers, and expanses of 
concrete and tarmac. Keep any grass and vegetation within 100 feet (30 
meters) of the sensor clipped to a height of about 10 inches (25 
centimeters) or less.
    (ii) Wind conditions shall be calm to light with maximum wind speed 
of 15 mph. In the case of temporary gusting, wind speeds between 15 and 
25 mph may occur for up to 5 percent of the total driving time without 
invalidating the data collection. Wind speed shall be measured and 
recorded in regular intervals of at least once per minute. Measure wind 
speed with the following requirements (based on Federal Standard for 
Siting Meteorological Sensors at Airports, FCM-S4-1987). The site should 
be relatively level, but small gradual slopes are acceptable. The sensor 
shall be mounted 30 to 33 feet (9 to 10 meters) above the average ground 
height within a radius of 500 feet (150 meters). The sensor height shall 
not exceed 33 feet, except as necessary to be at least 15 feet (5 
meters) above the height of any obstruction (e.g. vegetation, buildings, 
etc.) within a 500 foot (150 meter) radius. An object is considered to 
be an obstruction if the included lateral angle from the sensor to the 
ends of the object is 10 degrees or more.
    (iii) Road surface temperature shall be at least 125  deg.F 
throughout the driving period. Pavement temperature shall be measured 
and recorded in regular intervals of at least once per minute. The track 
temperature may be measured with an embedded sensor, a portable 
temperature probe, or an infrared pyrometer that can provide an accuracy 
of 2  deg.F. Temperatures must be measured on a surface 
representative of the surface where the vehicle is driven.
    (iv) Conditions shall be sunny or mostly sunny with a maximum cloud 
cover of 25 percent.
    (v) Reported cloud cover, wind speed, and ambient temperature should 
be consistent with that reported by the nearest weather station; the 
Administrator may request justification of any discrepancy.
    (4) Profile determination procedure. (i) Drain the fuel tank(s) and 
fill with test fuel to the ``tank fuel volume'' defined in Sec. 86.082-
2. The test fuel should meet the specifications of Sec. 86.1213, except 
that fuel with a lower volatility may be used, subject to Administrator 
approval. Manufacturers using a lower volatility fuel must generate a 
vapor temperature profile for demonstrating compliance with the limit on 
fuel tank pressure during the running loss test (see Sec. 86.1234-96).
    (ii) The vehicle shall be moved to the location where the data is to 
be collected. It may be driven a maximum distance of 5 miles and may 
also be transported by other means. The vehicle shall be stabilized by 
one of the following methods:
    (A) The vehicle shall be parked for a minimum of 12 hours in an open 
area on a surface that is representative of the test road, without any 
artificial heating or cooling of the fuel. The orientation of the front 
of the vehicle during parking (e.g., N, SW, etc.) shall be documented.
    (B) The vehicle may be soaked in a temperature-controlled 
environment to stabilize fuel temperatures. Before starting the drive, 
the vehicle shall be stabilized with fuel temperatures 953 
deg.F for at least one hour. The fuel temperature may not exceed 98 
deg.F at any

[[Page 794]]

time before the beginning of the driving schedule, during which only 
whole-vehicle heating and cooling may be used to control fuel 
temperatures. If a manufacturer uses the provisions of paragraph 
(d)(7)(v) of this section to establish a lower initial fuel temperature 
for the running loss test, the fuel in the test vehicle may not be 
stabilized at a temperature higher than the newly established initial 
fuel temperature.
    (iii) Once the ambient conditions specified in paragraph (d)(3) of 
this section are met and the vehicle has been stabilized according to 
paragraph (d)(4)(ii) of this section, the vehicle's engine may be 
started. The vehicle's air conditioning system (if so equipped) shall be 
set to the ``normal'' air conditioning mode and adjusted to the minimum 
discharge air temperature and high fan speed. Vehicles equipped with 
automatic temperature controlled air conditioning systems shall be set 
to operate in ``automatic'' temperature and fan modes with the system 
set at 72  deg.F.
    (iv) The vehicle may be operated at minimum throttle for a period up 
to 60 seconds prior to the start of the driving schedule, as necessary 
to move from the parking location onto the road surface. The driver's 
aid shall be started and the vehicle operated over the driving cycle 
specified in Sec. 86.1234-96(b) with the transmission operated in the 
same manner as specified in Sec. 86.128-79. The data recording system 
shall provide a record of the required parameters over the entire period 
of driving.
    (5) Records required. In addition to the vehicle data recording, the 
following parameters shall be documented for the determination of the 
fuel temperature profile:
    (i) Date and time of vehicle fueling;
    (ii) Odometer reading at vehicle fueling;
    (iii) Date and time vehicle was parked, parking location and 
orientation;
    (iv) Odometer reading at parking;
    (v) Date and time engine was started;
    (vi) Time of initiation of first Heavy-Duty Vehicle UDDS;
    (vii) Time of completion of the driving cycle;
    (viii) Ambient temperatures throughout the period of driving 
(Tamb);
    (ix) Wind speed throughout the period of driving;
    (x) Track surface temperatures throughout the period of driving 
cycle (Tsur);
    (xi) Percent cloud cover during the period of driving; and
    (xii) Ambient temperature, wind speed, and percent cloud cover 
reported by the nearest weather station for the time corresponding most 
closely to the period of driving.
    (6) Fuel tank pressure. Tank pressure shall not exceed 10 inches of 
water at any time during the temperature profile determination unless a 
pressurized system is used and the manufacturer demonstrates that vapor 
would not be vented to the atmosphere upon fuel cap removal.
    (7) Calculation of temperature profiles. (i) The traces from the 
driving schedule shall be verified to meet the speed tolerance 
requirements of Sec. 86.1215. The following conditions shall be 
verified:

    (A) Tamb,i  Tamb,o -2  deg.F.

Where,
    (1) i=instantaneous measurement throughout the drive; and
    (2) o=initial measurement at the start of the specified driving 
schedule.
    (B) Tamb,o95  deg.F.
    (C) Tsur,i-Tamb,i30  deg.F.
    (D) Wmax15 mph.

    (ii) Failure to comply with any of these requirements shall result 
in invalidation of the data and require that the procedure be repeated, 
beginning with the fuel drain at paragraph (d)(4)(i) of this section.
    (iii) If all these requirements are met, the following calculations 
shall be performed to determine a profile for liquid fuel temperatures 
and, if applicable, for vapor temperatures: 
Ti,profile=Ti-To.
Where:
    (A) Ti,profile=the series of temperatures that comprise 
the relative temperature profile.
    (B) Ti=the series of observed liquid fuel or vapor 
temperatures during the drive.
    (C) To=the liquid fuel or vapor temperature observed at 
the start of the specified driving schedule.
    (iv) The relative temperature profile consists of the set of 
temperatures at

[[Page 795]]

each 1-minute interval. If temperatures are sampled more frequently than 
once per minute, the temperature data points may represent a rolling 
average of temperatures sampled for up to one-minute intervals. If 
multiple valid test runs are conducted for any model, then all the 
collected data shall be used to calculate a composite profile, based on 
the average temperatures at each point. The absolute temperature profile 
is determined by adding 95  deg.F (35  deg.C) to each point of the 
relative profile. Other methodologies for developing corrected liquid 
fuel and vapor space temperature profiles may be used if demonstrated to 
yield equivalent results and approved in advance by the Administrator.
    (v) Manufacturers may use a lower initial fuel temperature for the 
running loss test, if approved in advance by the Administrator. To 
demonstrate the need for such an adjustment, manufacturers would be 
expected to determine the maximum fuel temperature experienced by a 
vehicle during an extended park or after driving one UDDS cycle when 
exposed to the ambient conditions described in paragraph (d)(3) of this 
section. To use this provision, manufacturers would have to show maximum 
fuel temperatures no greater than 92  deg.F.

    The test sequence shown in Figure M85-1 show the steps encountered 
as the test vehicle undergoes the test procedure. Ambient temperature 
levels encountered by the test vehicle throughout the test sequence 
shall not be less than 68 deg. F (20 deg. C) nor more than 86 deg. F 
(30 deg. C). The vehicle shall be approximately level during all phases 
of the test sequence to prevent abnormal fuel distribution.

Sec. 86.1230-96  Test sequence; general requirements.

    (a)(1) Gasoline- and methanol-fueled vehicles. The test sequence 
shown in figure M96-1 of this section shows the steps encountered as the 
test vehicle undergoes the procedures subsequently described to 
determine conformity with the standards set forth. The full three-
diurnal sequence depicted in figure M96-1 tests vehicles for all sources

[[Page 797]]

of evaporative emissions. The supplemental two-diurnal test sequence is 
designed to verify that vehicles sufficiently purge their evaporative 
canisters during the dynamometer run. Sections 86.1232-96, 86.1233-96 
and 86.1238-96 describe the separate specifications of the supplemental 
two-diurnal test sequence.
    (2) Gaseous-fueled vehicles. The test sequence shown in figure M96-1 
of this section shows the steps encountered as the test vehicle 
undergoes the procedures subsequently described to determine conformity 
with the standards set forth, with the exception that the fuel drain and 
fill and precondition canister steps are not required for gaseous-fueled 
vehicles. In addition, the supplemental two-diurnal test and the running 
loss test are not required.
    (b) The vehicle test for fuel spitback during fuel dispensing is 
conducted as a stand-alone test (see Sec. 86.1246). This test is not 
required for gaseous-fueled vehicles.
    (c) Ambient temperature levels encountered by the test vehicle shall 
be not less than 68  deg.F nor more than 86  deg.F, unless otherwise 
specified. If a different ambient temperature is specified for soaking 
the vehicle, the soak period may be interrupted once for up to 10 
minutes to transport the vehicle from one soak area to another, provided 
the ambient temperature experienced by the vehicle is never below 68 
deg.F. The temperatures monitored during testing must be representative 
of those experienced by the test vehicle.
    (d) The vehicle shall be approximately level during all phases of 
the test sequence to prevent abnormal fuel distribution.
    (e) If tests are invalidated after collection of emission data from 
previous test segments, the test may be repeated to collect only those 
data points needed to complete emission measurements. Compliance with 
emission standards may be determined by combining emission measurements 
from different test runs. If any emission measurements are repeated, the 
new measurements supersede previous values.

Sec. 86.1231-90  Vehicle preparation.

    (a) Prepare the fuel tank(s) for recording the temperature of the 
prescribed test fuel at the approximate mid-volume of the fuel when the 
tank is 40 percent full.
    (b) Provide additional fittings and adapters, as required, to 
accommodate a fuel drain at the lowest point possible in the tank(s) as 
installed on the vehicle.

CH3OH vapors and subsequently releases them to the engine 
induction system during vehicle operation shall be subjected to a 
minimum of 30 load-purge cycles or the equivalent thereof (4,000 miles 
or more of actual in-use vehicle service accumulation shall be 
considered equivalent). One load-purge cycle shall be accomplished by 
conducting one of the following procedures:
    (i) Vehicle Procedure. Park a fully-warm vehicle (a vehicle that has 
been driven for at least 15 minutes) for a time period of at least 3 
hours. Fill the fuel tank(s) to the prescribed ``tank fuel volume'' with 
specified test fuel (Sec. 86.1213) at room temperature. Then drive the 
vehicle through at least one cycle of the HDV reference (transient) 
urban dynamometer driving schedule.
    (ii) Laboratory Procedure. Flow vapors (gasoline or methanol, as 
appropriate) into a pre-purged vapor storage device until at least 10 
percent of the input HC or CH3OH mass flow rate is passing 
through the device. Purge the device with a volume of air which is at 
least as great as, and which has a temperature no higher than that which 
would be drawn through the device if it were installed on the test 
vehicle and the vehicle was operated according to the HDV reference 
(transient) urban dynamometer driving schedule. The vapor flow rate, the 
method used to generate the vapors, the air flow rate, and the air 
temperature shall be recorded. If pre-blended gas is used, then the 
composition and characteristics of the gas shall be recorded.
    (2) Ten load-purge cycles accumulated immediately prior to testing 
shall be conducted according to the method in paragraph (c)(1)(i) of 
this section. The preceding 20 cycles (minimum) shall be conducted 
according to either of the methods in paragraph (c)(1) (i) or (ii) of 
this section.

Sec. 86.1231-96  Vehicle preparation.

    (a) For gasoline- and methanol-fueled vehicles prepare the fuel 
tank(s) for recording the temperature of the prescribed test fuel, as 
described in Sec. 86.1207-96(e).
    (b) Provide additional fittings and adapters, as required, to 
accommodate a fuel drain at the lowest point possible in the tank(s) as 
installed on the vehicle.
    (c) For preconditioning that involves loading the evaporative 
emission canister(s) with butane, provide valving or other means as 
necessary to allow purging and loading of the canister(s).
    (d) For vehicles to be tested for running loss emissions, prepare 
the fuel tank(s) for measuring and recording the temperature and 
pressure of the fuel tank as specified in Sec. 86.1207-96 (e) and (f). 
Measurement of vapor temperature is optional during the running loss 
test. If vapor temperature is not measured, fuel tank pressure need not 
be measured.
    (e) For vehicles to be tested for running loss emissions, prepare 
the exhaust system by sealing or plugging all detectable sources of 
exhaust gas leaks. The exhaust system shall be tested or inspected to 
ensure that detectable exhaust hydrocarbons are not emitted into the 
running loss enclosure during the running loss test.

Sec. 86.1232-90  Vehicle preconditioning.

    (a) The vehicle shall be moved to the test area and the following 
operations performed:
    (1) The fuel tank(s) shall be drained through the provided fuel 
tank(s) drain(s) and filled to the prescribed ``tank fuel volume'' with 
the specified test fuel, Sec. 86.1213. For the above operations the 
evaporative emission control system shall neither be abnormally purged 
nor abnormally loaded.
    (2) Within one hour of being fueled the vehicle shall be placed, 
either by being driven or pushed, on a dynamometer and operated through 
one HDV

urban dynamometer driving schedule (see Sec. 86.1215). A test vehicle 
may not be used to set dynamometer horsepower.
    (3) The Administrator may choose to conduct additional 
preconditioning to insure that the evaporative emissions control system 
is stabilized. The additional preconditioning shall consist of an 
initial one hour minimum soak and one, two or three driving cycles of 
the dynamometer driving schedule, as described in paragraph (a)(2) of 
this section, each followed by a soak of at least one hour with engine 
off, engine compartment cover closed and cooling fan off. The vehicle 
may be driven off the dynamometer for the soak period which follows each 
driving cycle.
    (b) After completion of preconditioning the vehicle shall be driven 
off the dynamometer and parked. The engine shall be turned off within 
five minutes of completion of preconditioning. The vehicle may be pushed 
to its parking location after its engine has been turned off.

Sec. 86.1232-96  Vehicle preconditioning.

    (a) Fuel tank cap(s) of gasoline- and methanol-fueled vehicles shall 
be removed during any period that the vehicle is parked outdoors 
awaiting testing, to prevent unusual loading of the canisters. During 
this time care must be taken to prevent entry of water or other 
contaminants into the fuel tank. During storage in the test area while 
awaiting testing, the fuel tank cap(s) may be in place. The vehicle 
shall be moved into the test area and the following operations 
performed.
    (b)(1) Gasoline- and methanol-fueled vehicles. Drain the fuel 
tank(s) and fill with test fuel, as specified in Sec. 86.1213, to the 
``tank fuel volume'' defined in Sec. 86.082-2. The fuel cap(s) shall be 
installed within one minute after refueling.
    (2) Gaseous-fueled vehicles. Vehicle fuel tanks are to be filled 
with fuel that meets the specifications in Sec. 86.113. Fuel tanks shall 
be filled to a minimum of 75% of service pressure for natural gas-fueled 
vehicles or a minimum of 75% of available fill volume for liquefied 
petroleum gas-fueled vehicles. Prior draining of the fuel tanks is not 
called for if the fuel in the tanks already meets the specifications in 
Sec. 86.113.
    (c) Gasoline- and methanol-fueled vehicles shall be soaked for at 
least 6 hours after being refueled. Gaseous-fueled vehicles shall be 
soaked for at least 1 hour after being refueled. Following this soak 
period, the test vehicle shall be placed, either by being driven or 
pushed, on a dynamometer and operated through one Heavy-Duty Vehicle 
Urban Dynamometer Driving schedule, specified in Sec. 86.1215 and 
appendix I of this part. Once a test vehicle has completed the refueling 
and vehicle soak steps specified in paragraphs (b) and (c) of this 
section, these steps may be omitted in subsequent testing with the same 
vehicle and the same fuel specifications, provided the vehicle remains 
under laboratory ambient temperature conditions for at least 6 hours 
before starting the next test. In such cases, each subsequent test shall 
begin with the preconditioning drive specified in this paragraph. The 
test vehicle may not be used to set dynamometer horsepower.
    (d) [Reserved]
    (e) The Administrator may choose to conduct additional 
preconditioning to ensure that the evaporative emissions control system 
is stabilized. The additional preconditioning shall consist of an 
initial one hour minimum soak and one, two or three driving cycles of 
the dynamometer driving schedule, as described in paragraph (c) of this 
section, each followed by a soak of at least one hour with engine off, 
engine compartment cover closed and cooling fan off. The vehicle may be 
driven off the dynamometer for the soak period that follows each driving 
cycle.
    (f)(1) Gasoline- and methanol-fueled vehicles. After completion of 
the preconditioning drive, the vehicle shall be driven off the 
dynamometer. The vehicle's fuel tank(s) shall be drained and then filled 
with test fuel, as specified in Sec. 86.1213, to the ``tank fuel 
volume'' defined in Sec. 86.082-2. The vehicle shall be refueled within 
1 hour after completion of the preconditioning drive. The fuel cap(s) 
shall be installed within 1 minute after refueling. The vehicle shall be 
parked within five minutes after refueling.

[[Page 801]]

    (2) Gaseous-fueled vehicles. After completion of the preconditioning 
drive, the vehicle shall be driven off the dynamometer. Vehicle fuel 
tanks shall be refilled with fuel that meets the specifications in 
Sec. 86.1213. Fuel tanks shall be filled to a minimum of 75% of service 
pressure for natural gas-fueled vehicles or a minimum of 75% of 
available fill volume for liquefied petroleum gas-fueled vehicles. Prior 
draining of the fuel tanks is not called for if the fuel in the tanks 
already meets the specifications in Sec. 86.1213. The vehicle shall be 
parked within five minutes after refueling, or, in the absence of 
refueling, within five minutes after completion of the preconditioning 
drive.
    (g) The vehicle shall be soaked for not less than 12 hours nor more 
than 36 hours between the end of the refueling event and the beginning 
of the cold start exhaust emission test.
    (h) During the soak period for the three-diurnal test sequence 
described in Sec. 86.1230-96, evaporative canisters, if the vehicle is 
so equipped, shall be preconditioned according to the following 
procedure. For vehicles with multiple canisters in a series 
configuration, the set of canisters must be preconditioned as a unit. 
For vehicles with multiple canisters in a parallel configuration, each 
canister must be preconditioned separately. If production evaporative 
canisters are equipped with a functional service port designed for vapor 
load or purge steps, the service port shall be used during testing to 
precondition the canister. In addition, for model year 1998 and later 
vehicles equipped with refueling canisters, these canisters shall be 
preconditioned for the three-diurnal test sequence according to the 
procedure in paragraph (j)(1) of this section. If a vehicle is designed 
to actively control evaporative or refueling emissions without a 
canister, the manufacturer shall devise an appropriate preconditioning 
procedure, subject to the approval of the Administrator.
    (1)(i) Prepare the evaporative emission canister for the canister 
purging and loading operation. The canister shall not be removed from 
the vehicle, unless access to the canister in its normal location is so 
restricted that purging and loading can only reasonably be accomplished 
by removing the canister from the vehicle. Special care shall be taken 
during this step to avoid damage to the components and the integrity of 
the fuel system. A replacement canister may be temporarily installed 
during the soak period while the canister from the test vehicle is 
preconditioned.
    (ii) The canister purge shall be performed with ambient air of 
humidity controlled to 5025 grains per pound of dry air. 
This may be accomplished by purging the canister in a room that is 
conditioned to this level of absolute humidity. The flow rate of the 
purge air shall be maintained at a nominal flow rate of 0.8 cfm and the 
duration shall be determined to provide a total purge volume flow 
through the canister equivalent to 300 canister bed volume exchanges. 
The bed volume is based on the volume of adsorbing material in the 
canister.
    (iii) The evaporative emission canister shall then be loaded by 
sending to the canister an amount of commercial grade butane vapors 
equivalent to 1.5 times its nominal working capacity. The canister shall 
be loaded with a mixture composed of 50 percent butane and 50 percent 
nitrogen by volume at a rate of 152 grams butane per hour. 
If the canister loading at that rate takes longer than 12 hours, a 
manufacturer may determine a new rate, based on completing the canister 
loading in no less than 12 hours. The new rate may be used for all 
subsequent canister loading according to paragraph (h) of this section. 
The time of initiation and completion of the canister loading shall be 
recorded.
    (iv) The determination of a canister's nominal working capacity 
shall be based on the average capacity of no less than five canisters 
that are in a stabilized condition.
    (A) For stabilization, each canister must be loaded no less than 10 
times and no more than 100 times to 2-gram breakthrough with a 50/50 
mixture by volume of butane and nitrogen, at a rate of 15 grams butane 
per hour. Each canister loading step must be preceded by canister 
purging with 300 canister bed volume exchanges at 0.8 cfm.
    (B) For determining working capacity, each canister must first be 
purged with 300 canister bed volume exchanges

[[Page 802]]

at 0.8 cfm. The working capacity of each canister shall be established 
by determining the mass of butane required to load the canister from the 
purged state so that it emits 2 grams of hydrocarbon vapor; the canister 
must be loaded with a 50/50 mixture by volume of butane and nitrogen, at 
a rate of 15 grams butane per hour.
    (2) For methanol-fueled and flexible-fueled vehicles, canister 
preconditioning shall be performed with a fuel vapor composition 
representative of that which the vehicle would generate with the fuel 
mixture used for the current test. Manufacturers shall develop a 
procedure to precondition the evaporative canister, if the vehicle is so 
equipped, for the different fuel. The procedure shall represent a 
canister loading equivalent to that specified in paragraph (h)(1) of 
this section and shall be approved in advance by the Administrator.
    (i) [Reserved]
    (j) For the supplemental two-diurnal test sequence described in 
Sec. 86.1230-96, one of the following methods shall be used to 
precondition evaporative canisters during the soak period specified in 
paragraph (g) of this section. For vehicles with multiple canisters in a 
series configuration, the set of canisters must be preconditioned as a 
unit. For vehicles with multiple canisters in a parallel configuration, 
each canister must be preconditioned separately. In addition, for model 
year 1998 and later vehicles equipped with refueling canisters, these 
canisters shall be preconditioned for the supplemental two-diurnal test 
sequence according to the procedure in paragraph (j)(1) of this section. 
Canister emissions are measured to determine breakthrough. Breakthrough 
is here defined as the point at which the cumulative quantity of 
hydrocarbons emitted is equal to 2 grams.
    (1) Butane loading to breakthrough. The following procedure provides 
for emission measurement in an enclosure. Breakthrough may also be 
determined by measuring the weight gain of an auxiliary evaporative 
canister connected downstream of the vehicle's canister, in which case, 
the following references to the enclosure can be ignored. The auxiliary 
canister shall be well purged prior to loading. If production 
evaporative canisters are equipped with a functional service port 
designed for vapor load or purge steps, the service port shall be used 
during testing to precondition the canister.
    (i) Prepare the evaporative/refueling emission canister for the 
canister loading operation. The canister shall not be removed from the 
vehicle, unless access to the canister in its normal location is so 
restricted that purging and loading can only reasonably be accomplished 
by removing the canister from the vehicle. Special care shall be taken 
during this step to avoid damage to the components and the integrity of 
the fuel system. A replacement canister may be temporarily installed 
during the soak period while the canister from the test vehicle is 
preconditioned.
    (ii) The evaporative emission enclosure shall be purged for several 
minutes. Warning: If at any time the concentration of hydrocarbons, of 
methanol, or of methanol and hydrocarbons exceeds 15,000 ppm C the 
enclosure should be immediately purged. This concentration provides at 
least a 4:1 safety factor against the lean flammability limit.
    (iii) The FID hydrocarbon analyzer shall be zeroed and spanned 
immediately prior to the canister loading procedure.
    (iv) If not already on, the evaporative enclosure mixing fan shall 
be turned on at this time.
    (v) Place the vehicle in a sealed enclosure and measure emissions 
with a FID.
    (vi)(A) For gasoline-fueled vehicles, load the canister with a 
mixture composed of 50 percent butane and 50 percent nitrogen by volume 
at a rate of 40 grams butane per hour.
    (B) For methanol-fueled and flexible-fueled vehicles, canister 
preconditioning shall be performed with a fuel vapor composition 
representative of that which the vehicle would generate with the fuel 
mixture used for the current test. Manufacturers shall develop a 
procedure to precondition the evaporative canister, if the vehicle is so 
equipped, for the different fuel.
    (vii) As soon as the canister reaches breakthrough, the vapor source 
shall be shut off.

[[Page 803]]

    (viii) Reconnect the evaporative emission canister and restore the 
vehicle to its normal operating condition.
    (2) Load with repeated diurnal heat builds to breakthrough. The 
following procedure provides for emission measurement in an enclosure. 
Breakthrough may also be determined by measuring the weight gain of an 
auxiliary evaporative canister connected downstream of the vehicle's 
canister, in which case, the following references to the enclosure can 
be ignored. The auxiliary canister shall be well purged with dry air 
prior to loading.
    (i) The evaporative emission enclosure shall be purged for several 
minutes. Warning: If at any time the concentration of hydrocarbons, of 
methanol, or of methanol and hydrocarbons exceeds 15,000 ppm C the 
enclosure should be immediately purged. This concentration provides at 
least a 4:1 safety factor against the lean flammability limit.
    (ii) The FID hydrocarbon analyzer shall be zeroed and spanned 
immediately prior to the diurnal heat builds.
    (iii) If not already on, the evaporative enclosure mixing fan shall 
be turned on at this time.
    (iv) The fuel tank(s) of the prepared vehicle shall be drained and 
filled with test fuel, as specified in Sec. 86.1213, to the ``tank fuel 
volume'' defined in Sec. 86.082-2. The average temperature of the 
dispensed fuel shall be 6012  deg.F (167 
deg.C). The fuel tank cap(s) shall be installed within 1 minute after 
refueling.
    (v) Within one hour of being refueled, the vehicle shall be placed, 
with the engine shut off, in the evaporative emission enclosure. The 
fuel tank temperature sensor shall be connected to the temperature 
recording system. A heat source, specified in Sec. 86.1207-90(d), shall 
be properly positioned with respect to the fuel tank(s) and connected to 
the temperature controller.
    (vi) The temperature recording system shall be started.
    (vii) The fuel may be artificially heated to the starting diurnal 
temperature.
    (viii) When the fuel temperature reaches at least 69  deg.F (21 
deg.C), immediately turn off purge blower (if not already off); close 
and seal enclosure doors; and initiate measurement of the hydrocarbon 
level in the enclosure.
    (ix) When the fuel temperature reaches 722  deg.F 
(221  deg.C), start the diurnal heat build.
    (x) The fuel shall be heated in such a way that its temperature 
change conforms to the following function to within 4  deg.F 
(3  deg.C):
    F= To+0.4t; or


for SI units,

    C=To+(2/9)t.

Where,
F=fuel temperature,  deg.F;
C=fuel temperature,  deg.C;
t=time since beginning of test, minutes; and
To=initial temperature in  deg.F ( deg.C for SI units).

    (xi) As soon as breakthrough occurs or when the fuel temperature 
reaches 96  deg.F (36  deg.C), whichever occurs first, the heat source 
shall be turned off, the enclosure doors shall be unsealed and opened, 
and the vehicle fuel tank cap(s) shall be removed. If breakthrough has 
not occurred by the time the fuel temperature reaches 96  deg.F (36 
deg.C), the heat source shall be removed from the vehicle, the vehicle 
shall be removed (with engine still off) from the evaporative emission 
enclosure and the entire procedure outlined in paragraph (j)(2) of this 
section shall be repeated until breakthrough occurs.
    (xii) After breakthrough occurs, the fuel tank(s) of the prepared 
vehicle shall be drained and filled with test fuel, as specified in 
Sec. 86.1213, to the ``tank fuel volume'' defined in Sec. 86.082-2. The 
fuel shall be stabilized to a temperature within 3  deg.F of the lab 
ambient before beginning the driving cycle for the dynamometer run.
    (k) The Administrator may conduct the vehicle preparation and 
preconditioning for measurement of fuel economy or exhaust emissions 
according to the procedures specified in Secs. 86.1232-90 and 86.1233-
90, in lieu of the procedures specified in this section.
    (l) Vehicles to be tested for exhaust emissions only shall be 
processed according to Secs. 86.1235 through 86.1237. Vehicles to be 
tested for evaporative emissions shall be processed in accordance with 
the procedures in Secs. 86.1233 through 86.1238, starting with 
Sec. 86.1235.
    (m) Vehicles to be tested for evaporative emissions with the 
supplemental

[[Page 804]]

two-diurnal test sequence described in Sec. 86.1230-96, shall proceed 
according to Secs. 86.1235 through 86.1237, followed by the supplemental 
hot soak test (see Sec. 86.1238-96(k)) and the supplemental diurnal 
emission test (see Sec. 86.1233-96(p)).

Sec. 86.1233-90  Diurnal breathing loss test.

    (a) Following vehicle preparation and vehicle preconditioning 
procedures described in Secs. 86.1231 and 86.1232, the diurnal test 
shall start not less than 10 or more than 35 hours after the end of the 
preconditioning procedure. The start of vehicle operation shall follow 
the end of the diurnal test within one hour.
    (b) The evaporative emissions enclosure shall be purged for several 
minutes immediately prior to the test.

    Note:  If at any time the concentration of hydrocarbons, or of 
methanol, or of hydrocarbons and methanol exceeds 15,000 ppm C the 
enclosure should be immediately purged. This concentration provides a 
4:1 safety factor against the lean flammability limit.

    (c) The FID hydrocarbon analyzer shall be zeroed and spanned 
immediately prior to the test.
    (d) Impingers charged with known volumes of pure deionized water 
shall be placed in the methanol sampling system (methanol-fueled 
vehicles only).
    (e) If not already on, the evaporative enclosure mixing fan(s) shall 
be turned on at this time.
    (f) For vehicles with multiple tanks, the largest tank shall be 
designated as the primary tank and shall be heated in accordance with 
the procedures described in paragraph (m) of this section. All other 
tanks shall be designated as auxiliary tanks and shall undergo a similar 
heat build such that the fuel temperature shall be within 3  deg.F (1.6 
deg.C) of the primary tank.
    (g) Immediately prior to the diurnal breathing loss test, the fuel 
tank(s) of the prepared vehicle shall be drained and recharged with the 
specified test fuel as defined in Sec. 86.1213 to the prescribed ``tank 
fuel volume'', as defined in Sec. 86.078-2. The temperature of the fuel 
prior to its delivery to the fuel tank shall be between 45  deg.F and 60 
 deg.F (7.2  deg.C and 16  deg.C). The fuel tank cap(s) is not installed 
until the diurnal heat build begins.
    (h) The test vehicle, with the engine shut off, shall be moved into 
the evaporative emission enclosure, the test vehicle windows and any 
storage compartments shall be opened, the fuel tank temperature sensor 
shall be connected to the temperature recording system, and, if 
required, the heat source shall be properly positioned with respect to 
the fuel tank(s) and/or connected to the temperature controller.
    (i) The temperature recording system shall be started.
    (j) The fuel may be artificially heated to the starting  diurnal  
temperature, 60   deg.F2  deg.F (16  deg.C1.1 
deg.C).
    (k) When the fuel temperature recording system reaches at least 58 
deg.F (14  deg.C), immediately:
    (1) Install fuel tank cap(s).
    (2) Turn off purge blowers, if not already off at this time.
    (3) Close and seal enclosure doors.
    (l) When the fuel temperature recording  system  reaches 60 
deg.F2  deg.F (16   deg.C1.1  deg.C) 
immediately:
    (1) Analyze enclosure atmosphere for hydrocarbons and record. This 
is the initial (time = 0 minutes) hydrocarbon concentration, 
CHCi (see Sec. 86.1243).
    (2) Simultaneously with initiation of the hydrocarbon analysis, 
initiate collection of the methanol sample by drawing a sample from the 
enclosure through the sampling system for four minutes. This is the 
initial methanol measurement from which methanol concentration 
CCH3OHi and mass are calculated. Remove impingers and replace 
with freshly charged clean impingers which will be used to collect the 
final methanol sample.
    (3) Record barometric pressure reading. This is the initial (time = 
0 minutes) barometric pressure, Pbi (see Sec. 86.1243).
    (4) Record enclosure ambient temperature. This is the initial (time 
= 0 minutes) enclosure ambient temperature, Ti (see 
Sec. 86.1243).
    (5) Start diurnal heat build and record time. This commences the 
602 minute test period.

[[Page 805]]

    (m) The fuel shall be heated in such a way that its temperature 
change conforms to the following function to within 3  deg.F 
(1.6  deg.C):
    (1) F = To + 0.4t
    (2) For SI units, C = To + (2/9)t

Where:
F = fuel temperature,  deg.F.
C = fuel temperature,  deg.C.
t = heating time, minutes.
To = initial temperature in  deg.F (or in  deg.C for SI 
units).

    After 602 minutes of heating, the fuel temperature rise 
shall be 2401   deg.F (13.300.5   deg.C).
    (n) The FID hydrocarbon analyzer shall be zeroed and spanned 
immediately prior to the end of the diurnal test.
    (o)(1) The end of the diurnal breathing loss test occurs 
602 minutes after the heat build begins (paragraph (k)(4) of 
this section). Analyze the enclosure atmosphere for hydrocarbon and 
record. This is the final (time = 60 minutes) hydrocarbon concentration, 
CHCf (see Sec. 86.1234). The time (or elapsed time) of this 
analysis shall be recorded.
    (2) Simultaneously with the start of the hydrocarbon analysis, 
initiate collection of the methanol sample. Sample for four minutes. 
This is the final methanol sample.
    (3) Alternate method for methanol sampling. Since sample times of 
longer than four minutes may be necessary in order to collect an 
adequate and representative sample of methanol at the end of a test 
(when SHED concentrations are usually increasing rapidly), it may be 
necessary to rapidly collect the methanol sample in a bag and then 
bubble the bag sample through the impingers at the specified flow rate. 
The time elapsed between collection of the bag sample and flowing 
through the impingers should be minimized in order to prevent any 
losses. This alternative must be adopted if the four minute sample 
period is inadequate to collect a sample of sufficient concentration to 
allow accurate GC analysis.
    (4) Record barometric pressure reading. This is the final (time = 60 
minutes) barometric pressure, Pbf (see Sec. 86.1243).
    (5) Record enclosure ambient temperature. This is the final (time = 
60 minutes) enclosure ambient temperature, Tf (see 
Sec. 86.1243).
    (p) The heat source shall be turned off and the enclosure doors 
unsealed.
    (q) The heat source shall be moved away from the vehicle, if 
required, and/or disconnected from the temperature controller, the fuel 
tank temperature sensor shall be disconnected from the temperature 
recording system, and the test vehicle windows and any storage 
compartments may be closed. The vehicle shall be either driven or pushed 
out of the evaporative emission enclosure.

Sec. 86.1233-96  Diurnal emission test.

    (a)(1) The diurnal emission test for gasoline-, methanol- and 
gaseous-fueled vehicles consists of three 24-hour test cycles following 
the hot soak test. Emissions are measured for each 24-hour cycle, with 
the highest emission level used to determine compliance with the 
standards specified in subpart A of this part. The Administrator may 
truncate a test after any 24-hour cycle without affecting the validity 
of the collected data. Sampling of emissions from the running loss and 
hot soak tests is not required as preparation for the diurnal emission 
test. The diurnal emission test may be conducted as part of either the 
three-diurnal test sequence or the supplemental two-diurnal test 
sequence, as described in Sec. 86.1230-96.
    (2) For the full three-diurnal test sequence, the diurnal emission 
test outlined in paragraphs (b) through (o) of this section follows the 
high-temperature hot soak test concluded in Sec. 86.1238-96(j).
    (3) For the supplemental two-diurnal test sequence, the diurnal 
emission test outlined in paragraph (p) of this section follows the 
alternate hot soak test specified in Sec. 86.1238-96(k). This test is 
not required for gaseous-fueled vehicles.
    (b) The test vehicle shall be soaked for not less than 6 hours nor 
more than 36 hours between the end of the hot soak test and the start of 
the diurnal emission test. For at least the last 6 hours of this period, 
the vehicle shall be soaked at 723  deg.F. The temperature 
tolerance may be waived for up to 10

[[Page 806]]

minutes to allow purging of the enclosure or transporting the vehicle 
into the enclosure at the beginning of the diurnal emission test.
    (c) The test vehicle shall be exposed to ambient temperatures cycled 
according to the profile specified in Sec. 86.1233 and appendix II of 
this part.
    (1) Temperatures measured with the underbody temperature sensor 
shall follow the profile with a maximum deviation of 3  deg.F at any 
time and an average temperature deviation not to exceed 2  deg.F, where 
the average deviation is calculated using the absolute value of each 
measured deviation. In addition, the temperature from the sidewall 
temperature sensors shall follow the profile with a maximum deviation of 
5  deg.F at any time.
    (2) Ambient temperatures shall be measured at least every minute. 
Temperature cycling shall begin when time=0 minutes, as specified in 
paragraph (i)(5) of this section.
    (d) The diurnal enclosure shall be purged for several minutes prior 
to the test. Warning: If at any time the concentration of hydrocarbons, 
of methanol or of methanol and hydrocarbons exceeds 15,000 ppm C the 
enclosure should be immediately purged. This concentration provides at 
least a 4:1 safety factor against the lean flammability limit.
    (e) The test vehicle, with the engine shut off and the test vehicle 
windows and luggage compartment(s) opened, shall be moved into the 
diurnal enclosure.
    (f)-(g) [Reserved]
    (h) Prior to sampling for emissions and throughout the period of 
cycled ambient temperatures, the mixing fan(s) shall circulate the air 
at a rate of 0.80.2 cfm per cubic foot of ambient volume. 
The mixing fan(s), plus any additional fans if needed, shall also 
maintain a minimum wind speed of 5 mph (8 km/hr) under the fuel tank of 
the test vehicle. The Administrator may adjust fan speed and location to 
ensure sufficient air circulation around the fuel tank. The wind speed 
requirement may be satisfied by consistently using a fan configuration 
that has been demonstrated to maintain a broad 5-mph air flow in the 
vicinity of the vehicle's fuel tank, subject to verification by the 
Administrator.
    (i) Emission sampling may begin as follows:
    (1) The FID (or HFID) hydrocarbon analyzer shall be zeroed and 
spanned immediately prior to the sampling.
    (2) Impingers charged with known volumes of pure deionized water 
shall be placed in the methanol sampling system (methanol-fueled 
vehicles only).
    (3) Turn off purge blowers (if not already off).
    (4) Close and seal enclosure doors (if not already closed and 
sealed).
    (5) Within 10 minutes of closing and sealing the doors, analyze 
enclosure atmosphere for hydrocarbons and record. This is the initial 
(time=0 minutes) hydrocarbon concentration, CHCi, required in 
Sec. 86.1243. Hydrocarbon emissions may be sampled continuously during 
the test period.
    (6) Analyze the enclosure atmosphere for methanol, if applicable, 
and record. The methanol sampling must start simultaneously with the 
initiation of the hydrocarbon analysis and continue for 
4.00.5 minutes. This is the initial methanol concentration, 
CCH3OHi, required in Sec. 86.1243. Record the time 
elapsed during this analysis. If the 4-minute sample period is 
inadequate to collect a sample of sufficient concentration to allow 
accurate GC analysis, rapidly collect the methanol sample in a bag and 
then bubble the bag sample through the impingers at the specified flow 
rate. The time elapsed between collection of the bag sample and flow 
through the impingers should be minimized to prevent any losses. If the 
test is conducted in a fixed-volume enclosure that allows airflow into 
and out of the enclosure, the effect of makeup air dilution must be 
factored into the analysis.
    (j) If testing indicates that a vehicle design may result in fuel 
temperature responses during enclosure testing that are not 
representative of in-use summertime conditions, the Administrator may 
adjust air circulation and temperature during the test as needed to 
ensure that the test sufficiently duplicates the vehicle's in-use 
experience.
    (k) The FID (or HFID) hydrocarbon analyzer shall be zeroed and 
spanned

[[Page 807]]

immediately prior to the end of each emission sampling period.
    (l) Fresh impingers shall be installed in the methanol collection 
system immediately prior to the end of each emission measurement, if 
applicable.
    (m) The end of the first, second, and third emission sampling period 
shall occur 14406, 28806, 43206 
minutes, respectively, after the beginning of the initial sampling, as 
specified in paragraph (i)(5) of this section.
    (1) At the end of each emission sampling period, analyze the 
enclosure atmosphere for hydrocarbons and record. This is the final 
hydrocarbon concentration, CHCf, required in Sec. 86.1243. 
The emission measurement at the end of each period becomes the initial 
hydrocarbon concentration, CHCi, of the next emission 
sampling period.
    (2) Analyze the enclosure atmosphere for methanol, if applicable, 
and record. The methanol sampling must start simultaneously with the 
initiation of the hydrocarbon analysis and continue for 
4.00.5 minutes. This is the final (time=1440 minutes) 
methanol concentration, CCH3OHf, required in 
Sec. 86.1243. Record the time elapsed during this analysis. If the 4-
minute sample period is inadequate to collect a sample of sufficient 
concentration to allow accurate GC analysis, rapidly collect the 
methanol sample in a bag and then bubble the bag sample through the 
impingers at the specified flow rate. The time elapsed between 
collection of the bag sample and flow through the impingers should be 
minimized to prevent any losses. If the test is conducted in a fixed-
volume enclosure that allows airflow into and out of the enclosure, the 
effect of makeup air dilution must be factored into the analysis.
    (n) At the end of the temperature cycling period the enclosure doors 
shall be unsealed and opened, the test vehicle windows and luggage 
compartments may be closed and the test vehicle, with the engine shut 
off, shall be removed from the enclosure.
    (o) This completes the full three-diurnal evaporative emission test 
sequence described in Sec. 86.1230-96.
    (p) For the supplemental two-diurnal test sequence described in 
Sec. 86.1230-96, the following steps shall be performed in lieu of the 
steps described in paragraphs (b) through (n) of this section.
    (1) For the supplemental two-diurnal test sequence, the test vehicle 
shall be soaked for not less than 6 hours nor more than 36 hours between 
the end of the hot soak test described in Sec. 86.1238-96(k), and the 
start of the two-diurnal emission test. For at least the last 6 hours of 
this period, the vehicle shall be soaked at 723  deg.F.
    (2) The vehicle shall be tested for diurnal emissions according to 
the procedures specified in paragraphs (c) through (n) of this section, 
except that the test includes only two 24-hour periods. Therefore the 
end of the first and second emission sampling periods shall occur 
14406 and 28806 minutes, respectively, after the 
initial sampling.
    (3) This completes the supplemental two-diurnal test sequence for 
evaporative emission measurement.

Sec. 86.1234-96  Running loss test.

    (a) Overview. Gasoline- and methanol-fueled vehicles are to be 
tested for running loss emissions during simulated high-temperature 
urban driving; this test is not required for gaseous-fueled vehicles. 
During operation, tank temperatures are controlled according to a 
prescribed profile to simulate in-use conditions. If the vehicle is 
determined to have exceeded the standard before the end of the running 
loss test, the test may be terminated without invalidating the data. The 
test can be run either in a sealed enclosure or with the point-source 
method, as specified in paragraph (g) of this section. Measurement of 
vapor temperature is optional during the running loss test; however, if 
testing by the Administrator shows that a vehicle has exceeded an 
emission standard without measurement of vapor temperatures, the 
manufacturer may, utilizing its own resources, conduct subsequent 
testing on that vehicle to determine if the exceedance is attributable 
to inadequate control of vapor temperatures.
    (b) Driving schedule. Conduct the running loss test by operating the 
test vehicle through three Heavy-Duty Vehicle Urban Dynamometer Driving

[[Page 808]]

Schedules (see Sec. 86.1215 and appendix I of this part). Fifteen 
seconds after the engine starts, place the transmission in gear. Twenty 
seconds after the engine starts, begin the initial vehicle acceleration 
of the driving schedule. The transmission shall be operated according to 
the specifications of Sec. 86.1228 during the driving cycles.
    (c) Dynamometer operation. (1) The exhaust from the vehicle must be 
routed outside the test cell or enclosure. Exhaust gases may, but need 
not, be collected and sampled.
    (2) Provisions of Sec. 86.1235-85(c) shall apply.
    (3) Practice runs over the prescribed driving schedule may not be 
performed at test point.
    (4) Provisions of Sec. 86.1235-85 (e) and (f) shall apply.
    (5) If the dynamometer horsepower must be adjusted manually, it 
shall be set within 1 hour prior to the running loss test phase. The 
test vehicle shall not be used to make this adjustment. Dynamometers 
using automatic control of preselectable power settings may be set any 
time prior to the beginning of the emissions test.
    (6) Dynamometer roll or shaft revolutions shall be used to determine 
the actual driving distance for the running loss test, DRL, 
required in Sec. 86.1243. The revolutions shall be measured on the same 
roll or shaft used for measuring the vehicle's speed.
    (7) Provisions of Sec. 86.1235-85(i) shall apply.
    (8) The test run may be stopped if a warning light or gauge 
indicates that the vehicle's engine coolant has overheated.
    (d) Engine starting and restarting. (1) Provisions of Sec. 86.1236-
85(a) shall apply.
    (2) If the vehicle does not start after the manufacturer's 
recommended cranking time (or 10 continuous seconds in the absence of a 
manufacturer's recommendation), cranking shall cease for the period 
recommended by the manufacturer (or 10 seconds in the absence of a 
manufacturer's recommendation). This may be repeated for up to three 
start attempts. If the vehicle does not start after three attempts, the 
reason for failure to start shall be determined. If failure to start is 
an operational error, the vehicle shall be rescheduled for testing, 
starting with the soak period immediately preceding the running loss 
test.
    (3) If failure to start is caused by a vehicle malfunction, 
corrective action of less than 30 minutes duration may be taken 
(according to Sec. 86.090-25), and the test continued, provided that the 
ambient conditions to which the vehicle is exposed are maintained at 
955  deg.F (353  deg.C). When the engine starts, 
the timing sequence of the driving schedule shall begin. If failure to 
start is caused by vehicle malfunction and the vehicle cannot be 
started, the test shall be voided, the vehicle removed from the 
dynamometer, and corrective action may be taken according to 
Sec. 86.090-25. The reason for the malfunction (if determined) and the 
corrective action taken shall be reported to the Administrator.
    (4) Provisions of Sec. 86.1236-85(b) shall apply.
    (e) Pressure checks. No pressure checks of the evaporative system 
shall be allowed. Under no circumstances will any changes/repairs to the 
evaporative emissions control system be allowed.
    (f) Temperature stabilization. Immediately after the hot transient 
exhaust emission test, the vehicle shall be soaked in a temperature 
controlled area for a maximum of 6 hours until the fuel temperature is 
stabilized. The fuel may be heated or cooled to stabilize fuel 
temperatures, but the fuel heating rate must not exceed 5  deg.F in any 
1-hour interval during the soak period. A manufacturer may use a faster 
heating rate or a longer period for stabilizing fuel temperatures if the 
needed heating cannot be easily accomplished in the 6-hour period, 
subject to Administrator approval.
    (1) Fuel temperatures must be held at 953  deg.F for at 
least one hour before the start of the running loss test.
    (2) If a vehicle's fuel temperature profile has an initial 
temperature lower than 95  deg.F, as described in Sec. 86.1229-
85(d)(7)(v), the fuel in the test vehicle must be stabilized to within 3 
 deg.F of that temperature for at least one hour before the start of the 
running loss test.
    (g) Running loss test. The running loss test may be conducted either 
by the

[[Page 809]]

enclosure method, or by the point-source method.
    (1) Enclosure method. (i) The running loss enclosure shall be purged 
for several minutes immediately prior to the test. Warning: If at any 
time the concentration of hydrocarbons, of methanol, or of methanol and 
hydrocarbons exceeds 15,000 ppm C the enclosure should be immediately 
purged. This concentration provides at least a 4:1 safety factor against 
the lean flammability limit.
    (ii) The FID hydrocarbon analyzer shall be zeroed and spanned 
immediately prior to the test.
    (iii) If not already on, the running loss enclosure mixing fan(s) 
shall be turned on at this time. Throughout the test, the mixing fan(s) 
shall circulate the air at a rate of at least 1.0 cfm per cubic foot of 
ambient volume.
    (iv) The test vehicle, with the engine off, shall be moved onto the 
dynamometer in the running loss enclosure. The vehicle engine 
compartment cover shall be unlatched, but closed as much as possible, 
allowing for the air intake equipment specified in paragraph (g)(1)(vii) 
of this section. The vehicle engine compartment cover may be closed if 
alternate routing is found for the air intake equipment. Any windows, 
doors, and luggage compartments shall be closed. A window may be opened 
to direct cooling air into the passenger compartment of the vehicle, if 
the vehicle is not equipped with its own air conditioning.
    (v) Fans shall be positioned as described in Secs. 86.1207-96 (d) 
and (h).
    (vi) The vehicle air conditioning system (if so equipped) shall be 
set to the ``normal'' air conditioning mode and adjusted to the minimum 
discharge air temperature and high fan speed. Vehicles equipped with 
automatic temperature controlled air conditioning systems shall be set 
to operate in ``automatic'' temperature and fan modes with the system 
set at 72  deg.F.
    (vii) Connect the air intake equipment to the vehicle, if 
applicable. This connection shall be made to minimize leakage.
    (viii) The temperature and pressure recording systems shall be 
started. Measurement of vapor temperature is optional during the running 
loss test. If vapor temperature is not measured, fuel tank pressure need 
not be measured.
    (ix) Turn off purge blowers (if not already off).
    (x) The temperature of the liquid fuel shall be monitored and 
recorded at least every 15 seconds with the temperature recording system 
specified in Sec. 86.1207-96(e).
    (xi) Close and seal the enclosure doors.
    (xii) When the ambient temperature is 955  deg.F 
(353  deg.C) and the fuel has been stabilized according to 
paragraph (f) of this section, the running loss test may begin. Measure 
the initial ambient temperature and pressure.
    (A) Analyze enclosure atmosphere for hydrocarbons and record. This 
is the initial (time=0 minutes) hydrocarbon concentration, 
CHCi, required in Sec. 86.1243. Hydrocarbon emissions may be 
sampled continuously during the test period.
    (B) Analyze the enclosure atmosphere for methanol, if applicable, 
and record. The methanol sampling must start simultaneously with the 
initiation of the hydrocarbon analysis and continue for 
4.00.5 minutes. This is the initial (time=0 minutes) 
methanol concentration, CCH3OHi, required in 
Sec. 86.1243. Record the time elapsed during this analysis. If the 4-
minute sample period is inadequate to collect a sample of sufficient 
concentration to allow accurate GC analysis, rapidly collect the 
methanol sample in a bag and then bubble the bag sample through the 
impingers at the specified flow rate. The time elapsed between 
collection of the bag sample and flow through the impingers should be 
minimized to prevent any losses.
    (xiii) Start the engine and begin operation of the vehicle over the 
drive cycle specified in paragraph (b) of this section.
    (xiv) The ambient temperature shall be maintained at 955 
 deg.F (952  deg.F on average) during the running loss test, 
measured at the inlet to the cooling fan in front of the vehicle; it 
shall be recorded at least every 60 seconds.
    (xv) The fuel temperature during the dynamometer drive shall be 
controlled to match the fuel tank temperature

[[Page 810]]

profile determined in Sec. 86.1229. Measured fuel temperatures must be 
within 3  deg.F of the target profile throughout the test 
run. Vapor temperatures, if measured, must be within 5 
deg.F of the target profile during the first 4186 seconds of the running 
loss test, and within 3  deg.F for the remaining 120 seconds 
of the test run. For any vehicle complying with the test standards, 
vapor temperatures may be higher than the specified tolerances without 
invalidating test results. For testing by the Administrator, vapor 
temperatures may be lower than the specified tolerances without 
invalidating test results. If the test vehicle has more than one fuel 
tank, the temperatures for both fuel tanks shall follow the target 
profiles determined in Sec. 86.1229. The control system shall be tuned 
and operated to provide smooth and continuous tank temperature profiles 
that are representative of the on-road profiles.
    (xvi) Tank pressure shall not exceed 10 inches of water at any time 
during the running loss test unless a pressurized system is used and the 
manufacturer demonstrates that vapor would not be vented to the 
atmosphere upon fuel cap removal. A vehicle may exceed the pressure 
limit for temporary periods during the running loss test, up to 10 
percent of the total driving time, provided that the vehicle has 
demonstrated conformance with the pressure limit during the entire 
outdoor driving period specified in Sec. 86.1229. Measurement of fuel 
tank pressures will be considered valid only if vapor temperatures are 
measured and controlled to the tolerances specified in paragraph 
(g)(1)(xv) of this section.
    (xvii) The FID (or HFID) hydrocarbon analyzer shall be zeroed and 
spanned immediately prior the end of the test.
    (xviii) Fresh impingers shall be installed in the methanol 
collection system immediately prior to the end of the test, if 
applicable.
    (xix) The running loss test ends with the completion of the third 2-
minute idle period.
    (xx) At the end of the running loss test:
    (A) Analyze the enclosure atmosphere for hydrocarbons and record. 
This is the final hydrocarbon concentration, CHCf, required 
in Sec. 86.1243.
    (B) Analyze the enclosure atmosphere for methanol, if applicable, 
and record. The methanol sampling must start prior to the end of the 
test and continue for 4.00.5 minutes. The methanol sampling 
must be completed within 2 minutes after the end of the running loss 
test. This is the final methanol concentration, 
CCH3OHf, required in Sec. 86.1243. Record the time 
elapsed during this analysis. If the 4-minute sample period is 
inadequate to collect a sample of sufficient concentration to allow 
accurate GC analysis, rapidly collect the methanol sample in a bag and 
then bubble the bag sample through the impingers at the specified flow 
rate. The time elapsed between collection of the bag sample and flow 
through the impingers should be minimized to prevent any losses.
    (C) Turn off all the fans specified in Sec. 86.1207-96(d). Also, the 
time that the vehicle's engine compartment cover is open for removal of 
air intake equipment, if applicable, shall be minimized to avoid loss of 
heat from the engine compartment.
    (xxi) Turn off any CVS apparatus (if not already turned off).
    (2) Point-source method. (i) The test vehicle, with the engine off, 
shall be moved onto the dynamometer. The vehicle engine compartment 
cover and any windows, doors, and luggage compartments shall be closed.
    (ii) Fans shall be positioned as described in Secs. 86.1235-85(b) 
and 86.1207-96(d).
    (iii) The running loss vapor vent collection system shall be 
properly positioned at the potential fuel vapor vents or leaks of the 
vehicle's fuel system. Typical vapor vents for current fuel systems are 
the ports of the evaporative emission canister and the pressure relief 
vent of the fuel tank (typically integrated into the fuel tank cap).
    (iv) The running loss vapor vent collection system may be connected 
to a PDP-CVS or CFV-CVS bag collection system. Otherwise, running loss 
vapors shall be sampled continuously with analyzers meeting the 
requirements of Sec. 86.1207-96(b).
    (v) Fans shall be positioned as described in Sec. 86.1207-96(d).

[[Page 811]]

    (vi) The vehicle air conditioning system (if so equipped) shall be 
set to the ``normal'' air conditioning mode and adjusted to the minimum 
discharge air temperature and high fan speed. Vehicles equipped with 
automatic temperature controlled air conditioning systems shall be set 
to operate in ``automatic'' temperature and fan modes with the system 
set at 72  deg.F.
    (vii) The temperature and pressure recording systems shall be 
started. Measurement of vapor temperature is optional during the running 
loss test. If vapor temperature is not measured, fuel tank pressure need 
not be measured.
    (viii) The temperature of the liquid fuel shall be monitored and 
recorded at least every 15 seconds with the temperature recording system 
specified in Sec. 86.1207-96(e).
    (ix) When the ambient temperature is 955  deg.F 
(353  deg.C) and the fuel tank temperature is 
953  deg.F the running loss test may begin.
    (x) The ambient temperature shall be maintained at 955 
deg.F (952  deg.F on average) during the running loss test, 
measured at the inlet to the cooling fan in front of the vehicle; it 
shall be recorded at least every 60 seconds.
    (xi) Fuel temperatures shall be controlled according to the 
specifications of paragraph (g)(1)(xv) of this section.
    (xii) The tank pressure requirements described in paragraph 
(g)(1)(xvi) of this section apply also to running loss testing by the 
point source method.
    (xiii) The running loss test ends with completion of the third 2-
minute idle period.
    (xiv) If emissions are collected in bags, the sample bags must be 
analyzed within 20 minutes of their respective sample collection phases, 
as described in Sec. 86.137-94(b)(15). The results of the analysis are 
used in Sec. 86.1243 to calculate the mass of hydrocarbons emitted.
    (xv) At the end of the running loss test, turn off all the fans 
specified in Sec. 86.1207-96(d).
    (h) Following the completion of the running loss drive, the vehicle 
may be tested for hot soak emissions as specified in Sec. 86.1238-96.

Sec. 86.1235-85  Dynamometer procedure.

    (a) The dynamometer run consists of one HDV urban dynamometer 
driving schedule cycle starting within one hour after completion of the 
diurnal loss test. This run includes engine startup (with all 
accessories turned off) and operation over the driving schedule.
    (b) During dynamometer operation, one or more cooling fans shall be 
positioned so as to direct cooling air to the vehicle in an appropriate 
manner. The engine compartment cover shall be closed. If, however, the 
manufacturer can show that the engine compartment cover must be open to 
provide a test representative of field operation, the Administrator will 
allow the engine cover to be open. In the case of vehicles with front 
engine compartments, the fan(s) shall be squarely positioned within 12 
inches of the vehicle. In the case of vehicles with rear engine 
compartments (or if special designs make the above impractical), the 
cooling fan(s) shall be placed in a position to provide sufficient air 
to maintain vehicle cooling. The fan capacity shall normally not exceed 
10,600 (cfm (5.0 m3/ s)). If, however, the manufacturer can 
show that during field operation the vehicle receives additional 
cooling, and that such additional cooling is needed to provide a 
representative test, the fan capacity may be increased or additional 
fans used.
    (c) The vehicle speed as measured from the dynamometer rolls shall 
be used.
    (d) Practice runs over the prescribed driving schedule may be 
performed at test points, provided emissions are not measured, for the 
purpose of finding the minimum throttle action to maintain the proper 
speed-time relationship, or to permit test procedure adjustments.

    Note:  When using two-roll dynamometers a truer speed-time trace may 
be obtained by minimizing the rocking of the vehicle in the rolls. The 
rocking of the vehicle changes the tire rolling radius on each roll. 
This rocking

[[Page 812]]

may be minimized by restraining the vehicle horizontally (or nearly so) 
by using a cable and winch, or chain.

    (e) Drive wheel tires shall be inflated to the maximum gauge 
pressure recommended to the ultimate purchaser. If drive wheel tires 
have a maximum recommended inflation gauge pressure of less than 45 psi 
(310 kPa), they may be inflated up to a gauge pressure of 45 psi (310 
kPa) in order to prevent tire damage. The drive wheel tire pressure 
shall be recorded with the test results.
    (f) If the dynamometer has not been operated during the 2-hour 
period immediately preceding the test it shall be warmed up for 15 
minutes by operating at 30 mph (48 km/h) using a non-test vehicle or as 
recommended by the dynamometer manufacturer.
    (g) If the dynamometer horsepower must be adjusted manually, the 
power shall be set within 1 hour prior to dynamometer operation 
preceding the hot soak test. The test vehicle shall not be used to make 
the adjustment.
    (h) If the dynamometer horsepower is selected by automatic control, 
the power may be set anytime prior to the beginning of the driving 
cycle.
    (i) Multiple drive axle vehicles will be tested in one axle drive 
mode of operation. Full time multiple drive axle vehicles will have all 
but one axle temporarily disengaged by the vehicle manufacturer. 
Multiple drive axle vehicles which can be manually shifted to a one axle 
drive mode will be tested in the one axle drive mode of operation, 
unless this would pose a safety hazard, in which case all but one axle 
will be temporarily disengaged by the vehicle manufacturer.



Sec. 86.1235-96  Dynamometer procedure.

    Section 86.1235-96 includes text that specifies requirements that 
differ from Sec. 86.1235-85. Where a paragraph in Sec. 86.1235-85 is 
identical and applicable to Sec. 86.1235-96, this may be indicated by 
specifying the corresponding paragraph and the statement ``[Reserved]. 
For guidance see Sec. 86.1235-85.''
    (a) The dynamometer run consists of one HDV urban dynamometer 
driving schedule cycle starting not less than 12 nor more than 36 hours 
after completion of the drive specified in Sec. 86.1232-96. This run 
includes engine startup (with all accessories turned off) and operation 
over the driving schedule.
    (b) through (i) [Reserved]. For guidance see Sec. 86.1235-85.
[58 FR 16060, Mar. 24, 1993]



Sec. 86.1236-85  Engine starting and restarting.

    (a) Starting. (1) The engine shall be started (including choke 
operation) according to the manufacturers recommended starting 
procedures in the owner's manual. The initial idle period shall begin 
when the engine starts.
    (2) The operator may use the choke, accelerator pedal, etc., where 
necessary to keep the engine running.
    (3) If the manufacturer's operating instructions in the owner's 
manual do not specify a warm engine starting procedure, the engine shall 
be started by depressing the accelerator pedal about half way and 
cranking the engine until it starts.
    (4) If the vehicle does not start after the manufacturer's 
recommended cranking time (or 10 continuous seconds in the absence of a 
manufacturer's recommendation), cranking shall cease for the period 
recommended by the manufacturer (or 10 seconds in the absence of a 
manufacturer's recommendation). This may be repeated for up to three 
start attempts. If the vehicle does not start after three attempts, the 
reason for failure to start shall be determined. If failure to start is 
an operational error, the vehicle shall be rescheduled for the 
dynamometer run. If failure to start is caused by a vehicle malfunction, 
corrective action of less than 30 minutes duration may be taken, and the 
test continued. When the engine starts, the driving schedule timing 
sequence shall begin. If failure to start is caused by vehicle 
malfunction and the vehicle cannot be started, the test shall be voided, 
the vehicle removed from the dynamometer, and corrective action may be 
taken. The reasons for the malfunction (if determined) and the 
corrective action taken shall be recorded.
    (b) Stalling. (1) If the engine stalls during an idle period, the 
engine shall be restarted immediately and the driving schedule 
continued. If the engine cannot be started soon enough to allow

[[Page 813]]

the vehicle to follow the next acceleration as prescribed, the driving 
schedule indicator shall be stopped. When the vehicle restarts, the 
driving schedule indicator shall be reactivated.
    (2) If the engine stalls during some operating mode other than idle, 
the driving schedule indicator shall be stopped, the vehicle shall then 
be restarted and accelerated to the speed required at that point in the 
driving schedule and the driving schedule continued. During acceleration 
to this point, shifting shall be performed in accordance with 
Sec. 86.1228-85.
    (3) If the vehicle will not restart within one minute, the test 
shall be voided, the vehicle removed from the dynamometer, corrective 
action taken, and the vehicle rescheduled for testing. The reason for 
the malfunction (if determined) and the corrective action taken shall be 
recorded.

Sec. 86.1237-85  Dynamometer runs.

    (a) The vehicle shall be either driven or pushed onto the 
dynamometer; however, if driven, the period of engine operation between 
the end of the diurnal loss test and beginning of the hot soak 
preparation run shall not exceed 3 minutes, and the vehicle shall be 
driven at minimum throttle. The dynamometer run shall follow the diurnal 
heat build by not more than one hour. The vehicle shall be stored prior 
to dynamometer operation in such a manner that it is not exposed to 
precipitation (e.g., rain or dew).
    (b) The following steps shall be taken for the dynamometer run:
    (1) Place drive wheels of vehicle on the dynamometer.
    (2) Position the cooling fan(s).
    (3) Attach an exhaust tube to the vehicle tailpipe(s).
    (4) Start the engine.
    (5) Turn on the cooling fan(s).
    (6) Operate the vehicle according to the dynamometer driving 
schedule (Sec. 86.1215-85).
    (7) At the end of the last deceleration, disconnect the exhaust tube 
from the vehicle tailpipe(s) and drive vehicle from the dynamometer.



Sec. 86.1237-96  Dynamometer runs.

    Section 86.1237-96 includes text that specifies requirements that 
differ from Sec. 86.1237-85. Where a paragraph in Sec. 86.1237-85 is 
identical and applicable to Sec. 86.1237-96, this may be indicated by 
specifying the corresponding paragraph and the statement ``[Reserved]. 
For guidance see Sec. 86.1237-85.''
    (a) The vehicle shall be either driven or pushed onto the 
dynamometer; however, if driven, the total time of engine operation 
during the 12 to 36 hour soak period shall not exceed 3 minutes, and the 
vehicle shall be driven at minimum throttle. The vehicle shall be stored 
prior to dynamometer operation in such a manner that it is not exposed 
to precipitation (e.g., rain or dew).
    (b) [Reserved]. For guidance see Sec. 86.1235-85.

Sec. 86.1238-90  Hot soak test.

    The one-hour hot-soak evaporative emission test shall be conducted 
immediately following one cycle of the dynamometer driving schedule.
    (a) Prior to the completion of the dynamometer cycle, the 
evaporative emission enclosure shall be purged for several minutes.
    (b) The FID hydrocarbon analyzer shall be zeroed and spanned 
immediately prior to the test.
    (c) Fresh impingers shall be installed in the methanol sample 
collection system immediately prior to the start of the test, if 
applicable.
    (d) If not already on, the evaporative enclosure mixing fan(s) shall 
be turned on at this time.
    (e) Upon completion of the dynamometer run the exhaust tube shall be 
disconnected from the vehicle tailpipe(s), the cooling fan(s) shall be 
moved, and the vehicle shall be disconnected from the dynamometer and 
driven at minimum throttle to the vehicle entrance of the enclosure.
    (f) The vehicle's engine must be stopped before any part of the 
vehicle enters the enclosure. The vehicle may be pushed or coasted into 
the enclosure.
    (g) The test vehicle windows and any storage compartments shall be 
opened, if not already open.

[[Page 814]]

    (h) The temperature recording system shall be started and the time 
of engine shut off shall be noted on the evaporative emissions 
hydrocarbon data recording system.
    (i) The enclosure doors shall be closed and sealed within two 
minutes of engine shutdown and within seven minutes after the end of the 
exhaust emission test. The steps after the end of the driving cycle 
should be done as quickly as possible to minimize the time needed to 
start the hot soak test.
    (j) The 600.5 minute hot soak begins when the enclosure 
doors are sealed. The enclosure atmosphere shall be analyzed and 
recorded. This is the initial (time = 0 minutes) hydrocarbon 
concentration, CHCi, for use in calculating evaporative 
losses (see Sec. 86.1243). The ``zero'' time methanol sample shall be 
collected starting at the same time as the hydrocarbon analysis is 
started. Sampling shall continue for four minutes.
    (k) The test vehicle shall be permitted to soak for a period of one 
hour in the enclosure.
    (l) The FID hydrocarbon analyzer shall be zeroed and spanned 
immediately prior to the end of the test.
    (m) Fresh impingers shall be installed in the methanol collection 
system immediately prior to the end of the test, if applicable.
    (n) At the end of the 600.5 minute test period, the 
enclosure atmosphere shall again be analyzed (as described in 
Sec. 86.1238-90(j) and the time recorded. This is the final (time = 60 
minutes) hydrocarbon concentration, CHCf and the final 
methanol level for use in calculating evaporative losses (see 
Sec. 86.1243). This operation completes the evaporative emission 
measurement procedure.
    (o) Alternate method for methanol sampling. Since sample times of 
longer than four minutes may be necessary in order to collect an 
adequate and representative sample of methanol at the end of a test 
(when SHED concentrations are usually increasing rapidly), it may be 
necessary to rapidly collect the methanol sample in a bag and then 
bubble the bag sample through the impingers at the specified flow rate. 
The time elapsed between collection of the bag sample and flowing 
through the impingers should be minimized in order to prevent any 
losses. This alternative must be adopted if the four minute sample 
period is inadequate to collect a sample of sufficient concentration to 
allow accurate GC analysis.

60 FR 43906, Aug. 23, 1995]



Sec. 86.1238-96  Hot soak test.

    (a)(1) Gasoline- and methanol-fueled vehicles. For gasoline- and 
methanol-fueled vehicles, the hot soak test shall be conducted 
immediately following the running loss test. However, sampling of 
emissions from the running loss test is not required as preparation for 
the hot soak test.
    (2) Gaseous-fueled vehicles. Since gaseous-fueled vehicles are not 
required to perform a running loss test, the hot soak test shall be 
conducted within seven minutes after completion of the hot start exhaust 
test.
    (b) The hot soak test may be conducted in the running loss enclosure 
as a continuation of that test or in a separate enclosure.
    (1) If the hot soak test is conducted in the running loss enclosure, 
the driver may exit the enclosure after the running loss test. If 
exiting, the driver should use the personnel door described in 
Sec. 86.1207-96(a)(2), exiting as quickly as possible with a minimum 
disturbance to the system. The final hydrocarbon and methanol 
concentration for the running loss test, measured in Sec. 86.1234-
96(g)(1)(xx), shall be the initial hydrocarbon and methanol 
concentration (time=0 minutes) CHCi and 
CCH3OHi, for the hot soak test.
    (2) If the vehicle must be moved to a different enclosure, the 
following steps must be taken:
    (i) The enclosure for the hot soak test shall be purged for several 
minutes prior to completion of the running loss test. Warning: If at any 
time the concentration of hydrocarbons, of methanol, or of methanol and 
hydrocarbons exceeds 15,000 ppm C the enclosure should be immediately 
purged. This concentration provides at least a 4:1 safety factor against 
the lean flammability limit.

[[Page 815]]

    (ii) The FID hydrocarbon analyzer shall be zeroed and spanned 
immediately prior to the test.
    (iii) Fresh impingers shall be installed in the methanol sample 
collection system immediately prior to the start of the test, if 
applicable.
    (iv) If not already on, the mixing fan(s) shall be turned on at this 
time. Throughout the hot soak test, the mixing fan(s) shall circulate 
the air at a rate of 0.80.2 cfm per cubic foot of the 
nominal enclosure volume.
    (v) Begin sampling as follows:
    (A) Analyze the enclosure atmosphere for hydrocarbons and record. 
This is the initial (time = 0 minutes) hydrocarbon concentration, 
CHCi, required in Sec. 86.1243. Hydrocarbon emissions may be 
sampled continuously during the test period.
    (B) Analyze the enclosure atmosphere for methanol, if applicable, 
and record. The methanol sampling must start simultaneously with the 
initiation of the hydrocarbon analysis and continue for 
4.00.5 minutes. This is the initial (time=0 minutes) 
methanol concentration, CCH3OHi, required in 
Sec. 86.1243. Record the time elapsed during this analysis. If the 4-
minute sample period is inadequate to collect a sample of sufficient 
concentration to allow accurate GC analysis, rapidly collect the 
methanol sample in a bag and then bubble the bag sample through the 
impingers at the specified flow rate. The time elapsed between 
collection of the bag sample and flow through the impingers should be 
minimized to prevent any losses.
    (vi) The vehicle engine compartment cover shall be closed (if not 
already closed), the cooling fan shall be moved, the vehicle shall be 
disconnected from the dynamometer and any sampling system, and then 
driven at minimum throttle to the enclosure for the hot soak test. These 
steps should be done as quickly as possible to minimize the time needed 
to start the hot soak test.
    (vii) The vehicle's engine must be stopped before any part of the 
vehicle enters the enclosure.
    (viii) The vehicle shall enter the enclosure; the enclosure doors 
shall be closed and sealed within 2 minutes of engine shutdown and 
within seven minutes after the end of the running loss test.
    (ix) The test vehicle windows and any luggage compartments shall be 
opened (if not already open). The vehicle engine compartment cover shall 
be closed (if not already closed).
    (c) [Reserved]
    (d) The temperature recording system shall be started and the time 
of engine shutoff shall be noted on the evaporative emission hydrocarbon 
data recording system.
    (e) For the first 5 minutes of the hot soak test, the ambient 
temperature shall be maintained at 9510  deg.F. For the 
remainder of the hot soak test, the ambient temperature shall be 
maintained at 955  deg.F (952  deg.F on 
average).
    (f) The 600.5 minute hot soak begins when the enclosure 
doors are sealed (or when the running loss test ends, if the hot soak 
test is conducted in the running loss enclosure).
    (g) The FID (or HFID) hydrocarbon analyzer shall be zeroed and 
spanned immediately prior to the end of the test.
    (h) Fresh impingers shall be installed in the methanol collection 
system immediately prior to the end of the test, if applicable.
    (i) [Reserved]
    (j) At the end of the 600.5 minute test period:
    (1) Analyze the enclosure atmosphere for hydrocarbons and record. 
This is the final (time=60 minutes) hydrocarbon concentration, 
CHCf, required in Sec. 86.1243.
    (2) Analyze the enclosure atmosphere for methanol and record, if 
applicable. The methanol sampling must start simultaneously with the 
initiation of the hydrocarbon analysis and continue for 
4.00.5 minutes. This is the final (time=60 minutes) methanol 
concentration, CCH3OHf, required in Sec. 86.1243. 
Record the time elapsed during this analysis. If the 4-minute sample 
period is inadequate to collect a sample of sufficient concentration to 
allow accurate GC analysis, rapidly collect the methanol sample in a bag 
and then bubble the bag sample through the impingers at the specified 
flow rate. The time elapsed between collection of the bag sample and 
flow through the

[[Page 816]]

impingers should be minimized to prevent any losses.
    (k) For the supplemental two-diurnal test sequence (see 
Sec. 86.1230-96), the hot soak test described in Sec. 86.1238-90 shall 
be conducted immediately following the dynamometer run. This test 
requires ambient temperatures between 68 deg. and 86  deg.F at all 
times. The equipment and calibration specifications of Secs. 86.1207-90 
and 86.1207-90 may apply for this testing. Enclosures meeting the 
requirements of Secs. 86.1207-96 and 86.1217-96 may also be used. This 
hot soak test is followed by two consecutive diurnal heat builds, 
described in Sec. 86.1233-96(p).
    (l) If the vehicle is to be tested for diurnal emissions, follow the 
procedure outlined in Sec. 86.1233-96.

Sec. 86.1246-96  Fuel dispensing spitback procedure.

    (a) The vehicle is fueled at a rate of 10 gal/min to test for fuel 
spitback emissions. All liquid fuel spitback emissions that occur during 
the test are collected in a bag made of a material impermeable to 
hydrocarbons or methanol. The bag shall be designed and used so that 
liquid fuel does not spit back onto the vehicle body, adjacent floor, 
etc., and it must not impede the free flow of displaced gasoline vapor 
from the orifice of the filler pipe. The bag must be designed to permit 
passage of the dispensing nozzle through the bag. If the bag has been 
used for previous testing, sufficient time shall be allowed for the bag 
to dry out. The dispensing nozzle shall be a commercial model, not 
equipped with vapor recovery hardware.
    (b) Ambient temperature levels encountered by the test vehicle shall 
be not less than 68  deg.F nor more than 86  deg.F. The temperatures 
monitored during testing must be representative of those experienced by 
the test vehicle. The vehicle shall be approximately level during all 
phases of the test sequence to prevent abnormal fuel distribution.
    (c) Measure and record the mass of the bag to be used for collecting 
spitback emissions to the nearest 0.01 gram.
    (d) Drain the fuel tank(s) and fill with test fuel, as specified in 
Sec. 86.1213, to 10 percent of the reported nominal fuel tank capacity. 
The fuel cap(s) shall be installed immediately after refueling.
    (e) The vehicle shall be soaked at 806  deg.F 
(273  deg.C) for a minimum of six hours, then placed, either 
by being driven or pushed, on a dynamometer and operated through one 
Heavy-Duty Vehicle Urban Dynamometer Driving Schedule (specified in 
Sec. 86.1215 and appendix I of this part). The test vehicle may not be 
used to set dynamometer horsepower.
    (f) Following the preconditioning drive, the vehicle shall be moved 
or driven at minimum throttle to the refueling area.
    (g) All areas in proximity to the vehicle fuel fill orifice and the 
dispenser nozzle itself shall be completely dry of liquid fuel.
    (h) The fuel filler neck shall be snugly fitted with the vented bag 
to capture any fuel emissions. The fuel nozzle shall be inserted through 
the bag into the filler neck of the test vehicle to its maximum 
penetration. The plane of the nozzle's handle shall be perpendicular to 
the floor of the laboratory.
    (i) The fueling procedure consists of dispensing fuel through a 
nozzle, interrupted by a series of automatic shutoffs. A minimum of 3 
seconds shall elapse between any automatic shutoff and subsequent 
resumption of dispensing. Dispensing may not be manually terminated, 
unless the test vehicle has already clearly failed the test. The vehicle 
shall be fueled according to the following procedure:
    (1) The fueling operation shall be started within 4 minutes after 
the vehicle is turned off and within 8 minutes after completion of the 
preconditioning drive. The average temperature of the dispensed fuel 
shall be 655  deg.F (183  deg.C).
    (2) The fuel shall be dispensed at a rate of 9.80.3 
gallons/minute (37.11.1 l/min) until the automatic shutoff 
is activated.
    (3) If the automatic shutoff is activated before the nozzle has 
dispensed an amount of fuel equal to 70 percent of the tank's nominal 
capacity, the dispensing may be resumed at a reduced rate. Repeat as 
necessary until the nozzle has dispensed an amount of fuel equal to at 
least 70 percent of the tank's nominal capacity.
    (4) Once the automatic shutoff is activated after the nozzle has 
dispensed an amount of fuel equal to 70 percent of the tank's nominal 
capacity, the fuel shall be dispensed at a rate of 51 
gallons/minute (194 /min) for all subsequent 
dispensing. Dispensing shall be restarted two additional times.
    (5) If the nozzle has dispensed an amount of fuel less than 85 
percent of the tank's nominal capacity after the two additional 
dispensing restarts, dispensing shall be resumed, and shall

[[Page 822]]

continue through as many automatic shutoffs as necessary to achieve this 
level. This completes the fueling procedure.
    (j) Withdraw the nozzle from the vehicle and the bag, holding the 
tip of the nozzle upward to avoid any dripping into the bag.
    (k) Within 1 minute after completion of the fueling event, the bag 
shall be folded to minimize the vapor volume inside the bag. The bag 
shall be folded as quickly as possible to prevent evaporation of 
collected emissions.
    (l) Within 5 minutes after completion of the fueling event, the mass 
of the bag and its contents shall be measured and recorded (consistent 
with paragraph (c) of this section). The bag shall be weighed as quickly 
as possible to prevent evaporation of collected emissions.

Sec. 86.1306-90  Equipment required and specifications; overview.

    (a) Exhaust emission tests. All engines subject to this subpart are 
tested for exhaust emissions. Petroleum-fueled, natural gas-fueled, 
liquefied petroleum gas-fueled and methanol-fueled, Otto-cycle and 
diesel engines are tested identically with the exception of the systems 
used to measure hydrocarbon, nitrogen oxide, methanol, formaldehyde and 
particulate; petroleum-fueled diesel engines require a heated, 
continuous hydrocarbon detector and a continuous nitrogen oxide detector 
(Sec. 86.1310); methanol-fueled engines require a heated hydrocarbon 
detector, a

[[Page 823]]

methanol detector and a formaldehyde detector; either a heated or a non-
heated continuous hydrocarbon detector may be used with natural gas-
fueled and liquefied petroleum gas-fueled diesel engines; gasoline-
fueled, natural gas-fueled, liquefied petroleum gas-fueled and methanol-
fueled Otto-cycle engines are not tested for particulate emissions 
(Sec. 86.1309). Necessary equipment and specifications appear in 
Secs. 86.1308, 86.1309, 86.1310 and 86.1311.
    (b) Fuel, analytical gas, and engine cycle specifications. Fuel 
specifications for exhaust emission testing are specified in 
Sec. 86.1313. Analytical gases are specified in Sec. 86.1314. The EPA 
heavy-duty transient engines cycles for use in exhaust testing are 
described in Sec. 86.1333 and specified in appendix I to this part.

Sec. 86.1306-96  Equipment required and specifications; overview.

    (a) Exhaust emission tests. All engines subject to this subpart are 
tested for exhaust emissions. Petroleum-, natural gas-, liquefied 
petroleum gas-, and methanol-fueled Otto-cycle and diesel engines are 
tested identically with two exceptions. First, the systems used to 
measure hydrocarbon, nitrogen oxide, methanol, formaldehyde and 
particulate depend on the type of engine being tested; petroleum-fueled 
diesel engines require a heated, continuous hydrocarbon detector and a 
heated, continuous nitrogen oxide detector (see Sec. 86.1310); methanol-
fueled engines require a heated hydrocarbon detector, a methanol 
detector and a formaldehyde detector; either a heated or non-heated 
continuous hydrocarbon detector may be used with natural gas-fueled and 
liquefied petroleum gas-fueled diesel engines; gasoline-fueled, natural 
gas- fueled, liquefied petroleum gas-fueled and methanol-fueled Otto-
cycle engines are not tested for particulate emissions (see 
Sec. 86.1309). Second, if a gasoline-fueled and methanol-fueled engine 
is to be used in a vehicle equipped with an evaporative canister, the 
test engine must have a loaded evaporative canister attached for the 
exhaust emission test. Necessary equipment and specifications appear in 
Secs. 86.1308, 86.1309, 86.1310 and 86.1311.
    (b) Fuel, analytical gas, and engine cycle specifications. Fuel 
specifications for exhaust emission testing are specified in 
Sec. 86.1313. Analytical gases are specified in Sec. 86.1314. The EPA 
heavy-duty transient engine cycles for use in exhaust testing are 
described in Sec. 86.1333 and specified in appendix I to this part.

Sec. 86.1308-84  Dynamometer and engine equipment specifications.

    (a) Engine dynamometer. The engine dynamometer system must be 
capable of controlling engine torque and rpm simultaneously over 
transient cycles. The transient torque and rpm schedules described in 
Sec. 86.1333-84 and specified in appendix I ((f)(i), (2), and (3)) must 
be followed within the accuracy requirements specified in Sec. 86.1341-
84. In addition to these general requirements, the engine or dynamometer 
readout signals for speed and torque shall meet the following accuracy 
specifications:
    (1) Engine speed readout shall be accurate to within 
plus-minus2 percent of the absolute standard value, as 
defined in paragraph (d) of this section.
    (2) Engine flywheel torque readout shall be accurate to either 
within plus-minus3 percent of the NBS ``true'' value torque 
(as defined in paragraph (e) of this section), or the following 
accuracies:
    (i) plus-minus2.5 ft-lbs. of the NBS ``true'' value if 
the full scale value is 550 ft-lbs. or less.
    (ii) plus-minus5 ft-lbs. of the NBS ``true'' value if the 
full scale value is 1050 ft-lbs. or less.
    (iii) 10 ft.-lbs., of the NBS ``true'' value if the full 
scale value is greater than 1050 ft.-lbs.
    (3) Option: Internal dynamometer signals (i.e., armature current, 
etc.) may be used for torque measurement provided that it can be shown 
that the engine flywheel torque during the test cycle conforms to the 
accuracy specifications in paragraph (a) of this section. Such a 
measurement system must include compensation for increased or decreased 
flywheel torque due to the armature inertia during accelerations and 
decelerations in the test cycle.

[[Page 824]]

    (b) Cycle verification equipment. In order to verify that the test 
engine has followed the test cycle correctly, the dynamometer or engine 
readout signals for speed and torque must be collected in a manner that 
allows a statistical correlation between the actual engine performance 
and the test cycle (See Sec. 86.1341-84). Normally this collection 
process would involve conversion of analog dynamometer or engine signals 
into digital values for storage in a computer. The conversion of 
dynamometer or engine values (computer or other) that are used to 
evaluate the validity of engine performance in relation to the test 
cycle shall be performed in a manner such that:
    (1) Speed values used for cycle evaluation are accurate to within 2 
percent of the dynamometer or engine flywheel torque readout value.
    (2) Engine flywheel torque values used for cycle evaluation are 
accurate to within 2 percent of the dynamometer or engine flywheel 
torque readout value.
    (c) Option: For some systems it may be more convenient to combine 
the tolerances in paragraphs (a) and (b) of this section. This is 
permitted if the root mean square method (RMS) is used. The RMS values 
would then refer to accuracy in relationship to absolute standard or to 
NBS ``true'' values.
    (1) Speed values used for cycle evaluation shall be accurate to 
within plus-minus2.8 percent of the absolute standard values, 
as defined in paragraph (d) of this section.
    (2) Engine flywheel torque values used for cycle evaluation shall be 
accurate to within plus-minus3.6 percent of NBS ``true'' 
values, as determined in paragraph (e) of this section.
    (d) Speed calibration equipment. A 60-tooth (or greater) wheel in 
combination with a common mode rejection frequency counter is considered 
an absolute standard for engine or dynamometer speed.
    (e) Torque calibration equipment. Two techniques are allowed for 
torque calibration. Alternate techniques may be used if shown to yield 
equivalent accuracies. The NBS ``true'' value torque is defined as the 
torque calculated by taking the product of an NBS traceable weight or 
force and a sufficiently accurate horizontal lever arm distance, 
corrected for the hanging torque of the lever arm.
    (1) The lever-arm dead-weight technique involves the placement of 
known weights at a known horizontal distance from the center of rotation 
of the torque measuring device. The equipment required is:
    (i) Calibration weights. A minimum of six calibration weights for 
each range of torque measuring device used are required. The weights 
must be approximately equally spaced and each must be traceable to NBS 
weights. Laboratories located in foreign countries may certify 
calibration weights to local government bureau standards. Certification 
of weight by state government Bureau of Weights and Measures is 
acceptable. Effects of changes in gravitational constant at the test 
site may be accounted for if desired.
    (ii) Lever arm. A lever arm with a minimum length of 24 inches is 
required. The horizontal distance from the centerline of the engine 
torque measurement device to the point of weight application shall be 
accurate to within plus-minus0.10 inches. The arm must be 
balanced, or the hanging torque of the arm must be known to within 
plus-minus0.1 ft-lbs.
    (2) The transfer technique involves the calibration of a master load 
cell (i.e., dynamometer case load cell). This calibration can be done 
with known calibration weights at known horizontal distances, or by 
using a hydraulically actuated precalibrated master load cell. This 
calibration is then transferred to the flywheel torque measuring device. 
The technique involves the following steps:
    (i) A master load cell shall be either precalibrated or be 
calibrated per paragraph (e)(1)(i) of this section with known weights 
traceable to NBS, and used with the lever arm(s) specified in paragraph 
(e)(2)(ii) of this section. The dynamometer should be either running or 
vibrated during this calibration to minimize static hysteresis.
    (ii) A lever arm(s) with a minimum length of 24 inches is (are) 
required. The horizontal distances from the centerline of the master 
load cell, to the centerline of the dynamometer, and to the point of 
weight or force application

[[Page 825]]

shall be accurate to within plus-minus0.10 inches. The arm(s) 
must be balanced or the net hanging torque of the arm(s) must be known 
to within plus-minus0.1 ft.-lbs.
    (iii) Transfer of calibration from the case or master load cell to 
the flywheel torque measuring device shall be performed with the 
dynamometer operating at a constant speed. The flywheel torque 
measurement device readout shall be calibrated to the master load cell 
torque readout at a minimum of six loads approximately equally spaced 
across the full useful ranges of both measurement devices. (Note that 
good engineering practice requires that both devices have approximately 
equal useful ranges of torque measurement.) The transfer calibration 
shall be performed in a manner such that the accuracy requirements of 
paragraph (a)(2) of this section for the flywheel torque measurement 
device readout be met or exceeded.
    (3) Other techniques may be used if shown to yield equivalent 
accuracy.
    (f) Diesel engines only. If direct measurement of mass fuel 
consumption is chosen as an option in lieu of dilute exhaust CO2 
measurement, the fuel measurement device shall be accurate to within 
plus-minus2 percent of actual mass fuel flow.

52 FR 47870, Dec. 16, 1987]



Sec. 86.1309-90  Exhaust gas sampling system; Otto-cycle engines.

    (a)(1) General. The exhaust gas sampling system described in this 
paragraph is designed to measure the true mass of gaseous emissions in 
the exhaust of either gasoline-fueled, natural gas-fueled, liquefied 
petroleum gas-fueled or methanol-fueled Otto-cycle engines. In the CVS 
concept of measuring mass emissions, two conditions must be satisfied; 
the total volume of the mixture of exhaust and dilution air must be 
measured, and a continuously proportioned volume of sample must be 
collected for analysis. Mass emissions are determined from the sample 
concentration and total flow over the test period.
    (2) Engine exhaust to CVS duct. For methanol-fueled engines, 
reactions of the exhaust gases in the exhaust duct connected to the 
dilution tunnel (for the purposes of this paragraph, the exhaust duct 
excludes the length of pipe representative of the vehicle exhaust pipe) 
shall be minimized. This may be accomplished by:
    (i) Using a duct of unrestricted length maintained at a temperature 
below 599  deg.F (315  deg.C). (Cooling capabilities as required); or
    (ii) Using a smooth wall duct less than five feet long with no 
required heating (a maximum of two short flexible connectors are allowed 
under this option); or
    (iii) Omitting the duct and performing the exhaust gas dilution 
function at the engine exhaust manifold, immediately after exhaust 
aftertreatment systems, or after a length of pipe representative of the 
vehicle exhaust pipe; or
    (iv) Partial dilution of the exhaust gas prior to entering the 
dilution tunnel, which lowers the duct temperature below 599  deg.F (315 
 deg.C).
    (3) Positive displacement pump. The Positive Displacement Pump 
Constant Volume Sampler (PDP-CVS), Figure N90-1 satisfies the first 
condition by metering at a constant temperature and pressure through the 
pump. The total volume is measured by counting the revolutions made by 
the calibrated positive displacement pump. The proportional samples for 
the bag sample, the methanol sample (Figure N90-2), and the formaldehyde 
sample (Figure N90-3), as applicable are achieved by sampling at a 
constant flow rate. For methanol-fueled engines, the sample lines for 
the methanol and formaldehyde samples are heated to prevent 
condensation. (Note: For 1990 through 1994 model year methanol-fueled 
engines, methanol and formaldehyde sampling may be omitted provided the 
bag sample (hydrocarbons and methanol) is analyzed using a HFID 
calibrated with methanol.)

    (4) Critical flow venturi. The operation of the Critical Flow 
Venturi Constant Volume Sampler (CFV-CVS), Figure N90-4 is based upon 
the principles of fluid dynamics associated with critical flow. The CFV 
system is commonly called a constant volume system (CVS) even though the 
flow varies. It would

[[Page 829]]

be more proper to call the critical flow venturi (CFV) system a constant 
proportion sampling system since proportional sampling throughout 
temperature excursions is maintained by use of a small CFVs in the 
sample lines. For engines requiring measurement of methanol and/or 
formaldehyde, one line supplies sample for the bag sample, another line 
supplies sample for the methanol sample, and a third line supplies 
sample for the formaldehyde sample. The lines for the methanol and 
formaldehyde samples are heated to prevent condensation with care being 
taken to ensure that the CFVs of the sample probes are not heated. 
(Note: For 1990 through 1994 model year methanol-fueled engines, 
methanol and formaldehyde sampling may be omitted provided the bag 
sample (hydrocarbons and methanol) is analyzed using a HFID calibrated 
with methanol. The variable mixture flow rate is maintained at choked 
flow, which is inversely proportional to the square root of the gas 
temperature, and is computed continuously. Since the pressure and 
temperature are the same at all venturi inlets, the sample volume is 
proportional to the total volume.)

[[Page 830]]

[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR06OC93.190

    (5) Electronic Flow Control. The Electronic Flow Control Critical 
Flow Venturi Constant Volume Sampler (EFC-CFV-CVS) is identical to the 
CFV-CVS system, except that it uses electronic mass flow meters to 
maintain proportional sampling for methanol and

[[Page 831]]

formaldehyde. The flow rate of the exhaust plus dilution air and the 
sample flow rate are measured electronically. Proportionality is 
maintained by electronically controlled metering valves in the methanol 
and formaldehyde sample lines. Control of the valves is based on the 
electronic response of the flow meters. It is recommended that total 
flow sample volumes be measured by separate flow meters. For methanol-
fueled engines, one line supplies sample for the bag sample, another 
line supplies sample for the methanol sample, and a third line supplies 
sample for the formaldehyde sample. The sample lines for methanol and 
for formaldehyde may both draw samples from a single static probe. The 
lines for the methanol and formaldehyde samples are heated to prevent 
condensation.
    (6) Other systems. Other sampling and/or analytical systems 
including the systems described in Sec. 86.1310 for petroleum-fueled 
diesel engines may be used if shown to yield equivalent results, and if 
approved in advance by the Administrator.
    (7) Since various configurations can produce equivalent results, 
exact conformance with these drawings is not required. Additional 
components such as instruments, valves, solenoids, pumps and switches 
may be used to provide additional information and coordinate the 
functions of the component systems. Other components such as snubbers, 
which are not needed to maintain accuracy on some systems, may be 
excluded if their exclusion is based upon good engineering judgment.
    (b) Component description, PDP-CVS. The PDP-CVS, Figure N90-1, 
consists of a dilution air filter and mixing assembly, heat exchanger, 
positive displacement pump, sampling systems (see Figure N90-2 for 
methanol sampling system and Figure N90-3 for formaldehyde sampling 
system) including sampling lines which are heated to prevent 
condensation in the case of the methanol-fueled engine, and associated 
valves, pressure and temperature sensors. The temperature of the sample 
lines shall be more than 5  deg.F (3  deg.C) above the maximum dew point 
of the mixture and less than 250  deg.F (121  deg.C). (It is recommended 
the they be maintained at 235 15  deg.F (113 8 
deg.C)). Heating of the sample lines may be omitted, provided the 
methanol and formaldehyde sample collection systems are close coupled to 
the probes thereby preventing loss of sample due to cooling and 
resulting condensation in the sample lines. The PDP-CVS shall conform to 
the following requirements:
    (1) Exhaust system backpressure must not be artificially lowered by 
the CVS or dilution air inlet system. Measurements to verify this should 
be made in the raw exhaust immediately upstream of the inlet to the CVS. 
(For diesel engines, this measurement should be made immediately 
upstream of the backpressure set device.) This verification requires the 
continuous measurement and comparison of raw exhaust static pressure 
observed during a transient cycle, both with and without the operating 
CVS. Static pressure measured with the operating CVS system shall remain 
within 5 inches of water (1.2 kPa) of the static pressure 
measured without connection to the CVS, at identical moments in the test 
cycle. (Sampling systems capable of maintaining the static pressure to 
within 1 inch of water (0.25 kPa) will be used by the 
Administrator if a written request substantiates the need for this 
closer tolerance.) This requirement is essentially a design 
specification for the CVS/dilution air inlet system, and should be 
performed as often as good engineering practice dictates (e.g., after 
installation of an uncharacterized CVS, addition of an unknown inlet 
restriction on the dilution air, etc.).
    (2) The gas mixture temperature, measured at a point immediately 
ahead of the positive displacement pump and after the heat exchanger, 
shall be maintained within 10  deg.F (5.6 
deg.C) of the average operating temperature observed during the test. 
(The average operating temperature may be estimated from the average 
operating temperature from similar tests.) The temperature measuring 
system (sensors and readout) shall have an accuracy and precision of 
3.4  deg.F (1.9  deg.C).
    (3) The pressure gauges shall have an accuracy and precision of 
3 mm Hg (0.4 kPa).
    (4) The flow capacity of the CVS shall be large enough to eliminate 
water

[[Page 832]]

condensation in the system. This is especially critical for methanol-
fueled engines and may also be of concern with natural gas- and 
liquefied petroleum gas-fueled engines; see ``Calculation of Emissions 
and Fuel Economy When Using Alternative Fuels,'' EPA 460/3-83-009. 
Dehumidifying the dilution air before entering the CVS is allowed. 
Heating is also allowed, provided:
    (i) The air (or air plus exhaust gas) temperature does not exceed 
250  deg.F, or 125  deg.F if particulate emissions are measured;
    (ii) Calculation of the CVS flow rate necessary to prevent water 
condensation is based on the lowest temperature encountered in the CVS 
prior to sampling. (It is recommended that the CVS system be insulated 
when heated dilution air is used.);
    (iii) The dilution ratio is sufficiently high to prevent 
condensation in bag samples as they cool to room temperature.
    (5) Sample collection bags for dilution air and exhaust samples 
shall be of sufficient size so as not to impede sample flow. A single 
dilution air sample, covering the total test period, may be collected 
for the determination of methanol and formaldehyde background (where 
applicable).
    (6) The methanol sample collection system and the formaldehyde 
sample collection system shall each be of sufficient capacity so as to 
collect samples of adequate size for analysis without significant impact 
on the volume of dilute exhaust passing through the PDP. The systems 
shall also comply with the following requirements that apply to the 
design of the systems, not to individual tests:
    (i) The methanol system shall be designed such that, if a test 
engine emitted the maximum allowable level of methanol (based on all 
applicable standards) during the first phase of the test, the measured 
concentration in the primary impinger would exceed either 25 mg/l or a 
concentration equal to 25 times the limit of detection for the GC 
analyzer.
    (ii) The formaldehyde system shall be designed such that, if a test 
engine emitted formaldehyde at a rate equal to twenty percent of the 
maximum allowable level of THCE (i.e., 0.2 g/Bhp-hr for a 1.1 g/Bhp-hr 
THCE standard), or the maximum formaldehyde level allowed by a specific 
formaldehyde standard, whichever is less, during the first phase of the 
test, the concentration of formaldehyde in the DNPH solution of the 
primary impinger, or solution resulting from the extraction of the DNPH 
cartridge, shall exceed either 2.5 mg/l or a concentration equal to 25 
times the limit of detection for the HPLC analyzer.
    (iii) The methanol and formaldehyde systems shall be designed such 
that the primary impinger collects at least 90 percent of the analyte in 
the samples. The remaining analyte shall be collected by the secondary 
impinger. Sampling systems shall be identical for all phases.
    (c) Component description, CFV. The CFV sample system, Figure N90-4, 
consists of a dilution air filter (optional) and mixing assembly, 
cyclone particulate separator (optional), unheated sampling venturies 
for the bag, methanol and formaldehyde samples, as applicable, heated 
sample lines to prevent condensation in the case of the methanol-fueled 
engine, critical flow venturi, and associated valves, pressure and 
temperature sensors. The temperature of the sample lines shall be more 
than 5  deg.F (3  deg.C) above the maximum dew point of the mixture and 
less than 250  deg.F (121  deg.C). (It is recommended the they be 
maintained at 235 15  deg.F (113  8  deg.C)). 
Heating of the sample lines may be omitted, provided the methanol and 
formaldehyde sample collection systems are close coupled to the probes 
thereby preventing loss of sample due to cooling and resulting 
condensation in the sample lines. The CFV sample system shall conform to 
the following requirements:
    (1) Static pressure variations in the raw exhaust shall conform to 
the specifications detailed in paragraph (b)(1) of this section.
    (2) The temperature measuring system (sensors and readout) shall 
have an accuracy and precision of 3.4  deg.F 
(1.9  deg.C). The temperature measuring system used in a CVS 
without a heat exchanger shall have a response time of 1.50 seconds to 
62.5 percent of a temperature change (as measured in hot silicone oil). 
There is no response time

[[Page 833]]

requirement for a CVS equipped with a heat exchanger.
    (3) The pressure measuring system (sensors and readout) shall have 
an accuracy and precision of 3 mm Hg (0.4 kPa).
    (4) The flow capacity of the CVS shall be large enough to eliminate 
water condensation in the system. This is especially critical for 
methanol-fueled engines and may also be of concern with natural gas- and 
liquefied petroleum gas-fueled engines; see ``Calculation of Emissions 
and Fuel Economy When Using Alternative Fuels,'' EPA 460/3-83-009. 
Dehumidifying the dilution air before entering the CVS is allowed. 
Heating is also allowed, provided:
    (i) The air (or air plus exhaust gas) temperature does not exceed 
250  deg.F, or 125  deg.F if particulate emissions are measured.
    (ii) Calculation of the CVS flow rate necessary to prevent water 
condensation is based on the lowest temperature encountered in the CVS 
prior to sampling. (It is recommended that the CVS system be insulated 
when heated dilution air is used.)
    (iii) The dilution ratio is sufficiently high to prevent 
condensation in bag samples as they cool to room temperature.
    (5) Sample collection bags for dilution air and exhaust samples 
shall be of sufficient size so as not to impede sample flow. A single 
dilution air sample, covering the total test period, may be collected 
for the determination of methanol and formaldehyde background (where 
applicable).
    (6) The methanol sample collection system and the formaldehyde 
sample collection system shall each be of sufficient capacity so as to 
collect samples of adequate size for analysis without significant impact 
on the volume of dilute exhaust passing through the CFV. The systems 
shall also comply with the following requirements that apply to the 
design of the systems, not to individual tests:
    (i) The methanol system shall be designed such that, if a test 
engine emitted the maximum allowable level of methanol (based on all 
applicable standards) during the first phase of the test, the measured 
concentration in the primary impinger would exceed either 25 mg/l or a 
concentration equal to 25 times the limit of detection for the GC 
analyzer.
    (ii) The formaldehyde system shall be designed such that, if a test 
engine emitted formaldehyde at a rate equal to twenty percent of the 
maximum allowable level of THCE (i.e., 0.2 g/Bhp-hr for a 1.1 g/Bhp-hr 
THCE standard), or the maximum formaldehyde level allowed by a specific 
formaldehyde standard, whichever is less, during the first phase of the 
test, the concentration of formaldehyde in the DNPH solution of the 
primary impinger, or solution resulting from the extraction of the DNPH 
cartridge, shall exceed either 2.5 mg/l or a concentration equal to 25 
times the limit of detection for the HPLC analyzer.
    (iii) The methanol and formaldehyde systems shall be designed such 
that the primary impinger collects at least 90 percent of the analyte in 
the samples. The remaining analyte shall be collected by the secondary 
impinger. Sampling systems shall be identical for all phases of the 
test.
    (d) Component description, EFC-CFV. The EFC-CFV sample system, is 
identical to the CFV system described in paragraph (c) of this section, 
with the addition of electronic flow controllers, metering valves, 
separate flow meters to totalize sample flow volumes (optional), for 
methanol and formaldehyde samples. Both samples may be drawn from a 
single static probe. The EFC sample system shall conform to the 
following requirements:
    (1) All of the requirements of paragraph (c) of this section.
    (2) The ratio of sample flow to CVS flow must not vary by more 
5 percent from the setpoint of the test.
    (3) The sample flow totalizers shall meet the accuracy 
specifications of Sec. 86.1320. Total sample flow volumes may be 
obtained from the flow controllers, with advance approval of the 
Administrator, provided that they can be shown to meet the accuracy 
specifications of Sec. 86.1320.

Sec. 86.1310-90  Exhaust gas sampling and analytical system; diesel engines.

    (a) General. The exhaust gas sampling system described in this 
paragraph is designed to measure the true mass of both gaseous and 
particulate emissions in the exhaust of petroleum-fueled, natural gas-
fueled, liquefied petroleum gas-fueled and methanol-fueled heavy-duty 
diesel engines. This system utilizes the CVS concept (described in 
Sec. 86.1309) of measuring the combined mass emissions of HC, 
CH3OH and HCHO from methanol-fueled engines and CO, 
CO2 and particulate from all fuel types. A continuously 
integrated system is required for THC (petroleum-fueled, natural gas-
fueled, and liquefied petroleum gas-fueled engines) and NOX 
(all engines) measurement, and is allowed for all CO and CO2 
measurements plus the combined emissions of CH3OH, HCHO, and 
HC from methanol-fueled engines. Where applicable, separate sampling 
systems are required for methanol and for formaldehyde. The mass of 
gaseous emissions is determined from the sample concentration and total 
flow over the test period. The mass of particulate emissions is 
determined from a proportional mass sample collected on a filter and 
from the sample flow and total flow over the test period. As an option, 
the measurement of total fuel mass consumed over a cycle may be 
substituted for the exhaust measurement of CO2. General 
requirements are as follows:
    (1) This sampling system requires the use of a PDP-CVS and a heat 
exchanger, a CFV-CVS (or an EFC-CFV-CVS) with either a heat exchanger or 
electronic flow compensation. Figure N90-5 is a schematic drawing of the 
PDP system. Figure N90-6 is a schematic drawing of the CFV-CVS system.

    (2) The HC analytical system for petroleum-fueled diesel engines 
requires a heated flame ionization detector (HFID) and heated sample 
system (375 20  deg.F (191 11  deg.C)). For 
natural gas-fueled and liquefied petroleum gas-fueled diesel engines 
either a heated flame ionization detector and heated sample system as 
required for petroleum fuel or a non-heated flame ionization detector 
may be used.
    (3) Methanol-fueled engines require the use of a heated flame 
ionization detector (HFID) (235 deg.15  deg.F 
(113 deg.8  deg.C)) for hydrocarbon analysis. With a heated 
FID, the hydrocarbon analysis can be made on the bag sample and the 
methanol and formaldehyde analyses are

[[Page 837]]

performed on the samples collected for these purposes (Figures N90-2 and 
N90-3).

    Note:  For 1990 through 1994 model year methanol-fueled engines, 
methanol and formaldehyde sampling may be omitted provided the 
hydrocarbon plus methanol analyses are performed using a FID calibrated 
on methanol.

    (4) For methanol-fueled engines, cooling or reaction of the exhaust 
gases in the exhaust duct connected to the dilution tunnel (for the 
purposes of this paragraph, the exhaust duct excludes the length of pipe 
representative of the vehicle exhaust pipe) shall be minimized. This may 
be accomplished by:
    (i) Using a duct of unrestricted length maintained at a temperature 
below 599  deg.F (315  deg.C). (Heating and possibly cooling 
capabilities as required); or
    (ii) Using a smooth wall duct less than five feet long with no 
required heating (a maximum of two short flexible connectors are allowed 
under this option); or
    (iii) Omitting the duct and performing the exhaust gas dilution 
function at the engine exhaust manifold or immediately after exhaust 
aftertreatment systems, or after a length of pipe representative of the 
vehicle exhaust pipe; or
    (iv) Partial dilution of the exhaust gas prior to entering the 
dilution tunnel, which lowers the duct temperature below 599  deg.F (315 
 deg.C).
    (5) Heated sample lines are required for the methanol and 
formaldehyde samples (care must be taken to prevent heating of the 
sample probes unless compensation for varying flow rate is made). The 
sample collection lines shall be heated to a temperature more than 5 
deg.F (3  deg.C) above the maximum dew point of the mixture, but below 
250  deg.F (121  deg.C).
    (6) The CO and CO2 analytical system requires:
    (i) Bag sampling (Sec. 86.1309) and analytical (Sec. 86.1311) 
capabilities, as shown in Figure N90-5 (or Figure N90-6), or
    (ii) Continuously integrated measurement of diluted CO and 
CO2 meeting the minimum requirements and technical 
specifications contained in paragraph (b)(5) of this section. Unless 
compensation for varying flow is made, a constant flow system must be 
used to ensure a representative sample.
    (7) The NOX analytical system requires a continuously 
integrated measurement of diluted NOX meeting the minimum 
requirements and technical specifications contained in paragraph (b)(5) 
of this section. Unless compensation for varying flow is made, a 
constant flow system must be used to ensure a representative sample.
    (8) The mass of particulate in the exhaust is determined via 
filtration. The particulate sampling system requires dilution of the 
exhaust in either one or two steps to a temperature never greater than 
125  deg.F (51.7  deg.C) at the primary sample filter. A backup filter 
provides a confirmation of sufficient filtering efficiency.
    (9) Since various configurations can produce equivalent results, 
exact conformance with these drawings is not required. Additional 
components such as instruments, valves, solenoids, pumps, and switches 
may be used to provide additional information and coordinate the 
functions of the component systems. Other components, such as snubbers, 
which are not needed to maintain accuracy on some systems, may be 
excluded if their exclusion is based upon good engineering judgment.
    (10) Other sampling and/or analytical systems may be used if shown 
to yield equivalent results and if approved in advance by the 
Administrator.
    (b) Component description. The components necessary for exhaust 
sampling shall meet the following requirements:
    (1) Exhaust dilution system. The PDP-CVS shall conform to all of the 
requirements listed for the exhaust gas PDP-CVS in Sec. 86.1309(b). The 
CFV-CVS shall conform to all of the requirements listed for the exhaust 
gas CFV-CVS in Sec. 86.1309(c). The EFC-CFV-CVS shall conform to all of 
the requirements listed for the exhaust gas EFC-CVS in Sec. 86.1309(d). 
In addition, the CFV-CVS and EFC-CFV-CVS must conform to the following 
requirements:
    (i) The flow capacity of the CVS must be sufficient to maintain the 
diluted exhaust stream at or below the temperatures required for the 
measurement of particulate and hydrocarbon emission noted below and at, 
or above,

[[Page 838]]

the temperatures where condensation of water in the exhaust gases could 
occur. This may be achieved by either of the following two methods:
    (A) Single-dilution method. The flow capacity of the CVS must be 
sufficient to maintain the diluted exhaust stream at a temperature of 
125  deg.F (51.7  deg.C) or less, at the sampling zone in the primary 
dilution tunnel and as required to prevent condensation at any point in 
the dilution tunnel. Direct sampling of the particulate material may 
then take place (Figure N90-5).
    (B) Double-dilution method. The flow capacity of the CVS must be 
sufficient to maintain the diluted exhaust stream in the primary 
dilution tunnel at a temperature of 375  deg.F (191  deg.C) (250  deg.F 
(121  deg.C) for methanol fueled engines) or less at the sampling zone 
and as required to prevent condensation at any point in the dilution 
tunnel. Gaseous emission samples may be taken directly from this 
sampling point. An exhaust sample must then be taken at this point to be 
diluted a second time for use in determining particulate emissions. The 
secondary dilution system must provide sufficient secondary dilution air 
to maintain the double-diluted exhaust stream at a temperature of 125 
deg.F (51.7  deg.C) or less immediately before the primary particulate 
filter in the secondary dilution tunnel.
    (ii) For the CFV-CVS or EFC-CFV-CVS, either a heat exchanger or 
electronic flow compensation (which also includes the particulate sample 
flows) is required (see Figure N90-6).
    (iii) For the CFV-CVS or EFC-CFV-CVS when a heat exchanger is used, 
the gas mixture temperature, measured at a point immediately ahead of 
the critical flow venturi, shall be within 20  deg.F 
(11  deg.C) of the average operating temperature observed 
during the test with the simultaneous requirement that condensation does 
not occur. The temperature measuring system(sensors and readout) shall 
have an accuracy and precision of 3.4  deg.F (1.9  deg.C). 
For systems utilizing a flow compensator to maintain proportional 
sampling, the requirement for maintaining constant temperature is not 
necessary.
    (iv) The primary dilution air and secondary dilution air (if 
applicable):
    (A) Shall have a temperature of 77 deg.9  deg.F 
(25 deg.5  deg.C). For the first l0 seconds this 
specification is 77 deg.20  deg.F (25 deg.11 
deg.C).
    (B) May be filtered at the dilution air inlet.
    (C) Primary dilution air may be sampled to determine background 
particulate levels, which can then be subtracted from the values 
measured in the diluted exhaust stream. The primary dilution air shall 
be sampled at the inlet to the primary dilution tunnel, if unfiltered, 
or downstream of any primary dilution air conditioning devices, if used.
    (2) [Reserved]
    (3) Continuous HC measurement system. (i) The continuous HC sample 
system (as shown in Figure N90-7 or N90-8) uses an ``overflow'' zero and 
span system. In this type of system, excess zero or span gas spills out 
of the probe when zero and span checks of the analyzer are made. The 
``overflow'' system may also be used to calibrate the HC analyzer per 
Sec. 86.1321(b), although this is not required.

[[Page 839]]

    (ii) No other analyzers may draw a sample from the continuous HC 
sample probe, line or system, unless a common sample pump is used for 
all analyzers and the sample line system design reflects good 
engineering practice.
    (iii) The overflow gas flow rates into the sample line shall be at 
least 105 percent of the sample system flow rate.
    (iv) The overflow gases shall enter the heated sample line as close 
as practicable to the outside surface of the CVS duct or dilution 
tunnel.
    (v) The continuous HC sampling system shall consist of a probe 
(which must raise the sample to the specified temperature) and, where 
used, a sample transfer system (which must maintain

[[Page 841]]

the specified temperature). The continuous hydrocarbon sampling system 
(exclusive of the probe) shall:
    (A) Maintain a wall temperature of 464K  11K (191 deg.C 
 11 deg.C) as measured at every separately controlled heated 
component (i.e., filters, heated line sections), using permanent 
thermocouples located at each of the separate components.
    (B) Have a wall temperature of 464K  11K (191 deg.C 
 11 deg.C) over its entire length. The temperature of the 
system shall be demonstrated by profiling the thermal characteristics of 
the system at initial installation and after any major maintenance 
performed on the system. The temperature profile of the HC sampling 
system shall be demonstrated by inserting thermocouple wires (typically 
Teflon coated for ease of insertion) into the sampling 
system assembled in-situ where possible, using good engineering 
judgement. The wire should be inserted up to the HFID inlet. Stabilize 
the sampling system heaters at normal operating temperatures. Withdraw 
the wires in increments of 5 cm to 10 cm (2 inches to 4 inches) 
including all fittings. Record the stabilized temperature at each 
position. The system temperature will be monitored during testing at the 
locations and temperature described in Sec. 86.1310-90(b)(v)(A). 
Comment: It is understood that profiling of the sample line can be done 
under flowing conditions also as required with the probe.
    (C) Maintain a gas temperature of 464K 11K (191 deg.C 
11 deg.C) immediately before the heated filter and HFID. 
These gas temperatures will be determined by a temperature sensor 
located immediately upstream of each component.
    (vi) The continuous hydrocarbon sampling probe shall:
    (A) Be defined as the first 25.4 cm (10 in) to 76.2 cm (30 in) of 
the continuous hydrocarbon sampling system.
    (B) Have a 0.483 cm (0.19 in) minimum inside diameter.
    (C) Be installed in the primary dilution tunnel at a point where the 
dilution air and exhaust are well mixed (i.e., approximately 10 tunnel 
diameters downstream of the point where the exhaust enters the dilution 
tunnel).
    (D) Be sufficiently distant (radially) from other probes and the 
tunnel wall so as to be free from the influence of any wakes or eddies.
    (E) Increase the gas stream temperature to 464K 11K 
(191 deg.C 11 deg.C) by the exit of the probe. The ability 
of the probe to accomplish this shall be demonstrated at typical sample 
flow rates using the insertion thermocouple technique at initial 
installation and after any major maintenance. Compliance with the 
temperature specification shall be demonstrated by monitoring during 
each test the temperature of either the gas stream or the wall of the 
sample probe at its terminus.
    (vii) The response time of the continuous measurement system shall 
be no greater than:
    (A) 1.5 seconds from an instantaneous step change at the port 
entrance to the analyzer to within 90 percent of the step change.
    (B) 20 seconds from an instantaneous step change at the entrance to 
the sample probe or overflow span gas port to within 90 percent of the 
step change. Analysis system response time shall be coordinated with CVS 
flow fluctuations and sampling time/test cycle offsets if necessary.
    (C) For the purpose of verification of response times, the step 
change shall be at least 60 percent of full-scale chart deflection.
    (4) Primary-dilution tunnel. (i) The primary dilution tunnel shall 
be:
    (A) Small enough in diameter to cause turbulent flow (Reynolds 
Number greater than 4000) and of sufficient length to cause complete 
mixing of the exhaust and dilution air;
    (B) At least 18 inches (46 cm) in diameter with a single-dilution 
system or at least 8 inches (20 cm) in diameter with a double-dilution 
system;
    (C) Constructed of electrically conductive material which does not 
react with the exhaust components; and
    (D) Electrically grounded.
    (ii) The temperature of the diluted exhaust stream inside of the 
primary dilution tunnel shall be sufficient to prevent water 
condensation.
    (iii) The engine exhaust shall be directed downstream at the point 
where it is introduced into the primary dilution tunnel.

[[Page 842]]

    (5) Continuously integrated NOX, CO, and CO2 
measurement systems. (i) The sample probe shall:
    (A) Be in the same plane as the continuous HC probe, but shall be 
sufficiently distant (radially) from other probes and the tunnel wall so 
as to be free from the influences of any wakes or eddies.
    (B) Heated and insulated over the entire length, to prevent water 
condensation, to a minimum temperature of 131  deg.F (55  deg.C). Sample 
gas temperature immediately before the first filter in the system shall 
be at least 131  deg.F (55  deg.C).
    (ii) The continuous NOX, CO, or CO2 sampling 
and analysis system shall conform to the specifications of 40 CFR part 
86, subpart D, with the following exceptions and revisions:
    (A) The system components required to be heated by subpart D need 
only be heated to prevent water condensation, the minimum component 
temperature shall be 131  deg.F (55  deg.C).
    (B) The system response defined in Sec. 86.329-79 shall be no 
greater than 20 seconds. Analysis system response time shall be 
coordinated with CVS flow fluctuations and sampling time/test cycle 
offsets, if necessary.
    (C) Alternative NOX measurement techniques outlined in 
Sec. 86.346-79 are not permitted for NOX measurement in this 
subpart.
    (D) All analytical gases shall conform to the specifications of 
Sec. 86.1314.
    (E) Any range on a linear analyzer below 155 ppm shall have and use 
a calibration curve conforming to Sec. 86.330-79.
    (F) The measurement accuracy requirements specified in Sec. 86.338-
79 are superseded by those specified in Sec. 86.1338.
    (iii) The chart deflections or voltage output of analyzers with non-
linear calibration curves shall be converted to concentration values by 
the calibration curve(s) specified in subpart D (Sec. 86.330-79) before 
flow correction (if used) and subsequent integration takes place.
    (6) Particulate sampling system. The particulate collection system 
must be configured in either of two ways. The single-dilution method 
collects a proportional sample from the primary tunnel, and then passes 
this sample through the collection filter. The double-dilution method 
collects a proportional sample from the primary tunnel, and then 
transfers this sample to a secondary dilution tunnel where the sample is 
further diluted; the double-diluted sample is then passed through the 
collection filter. Proportionality (i.e., mass flow ratio) between the 
primary tunnel flow rate and the sample flow rate must be maintained 
within 5 percent. The requirements for these two systems 
are:
    (i) Single dilution method. (A) The particulate sample probe shall 
be:
    (1) Installed facing upstream at a point where the dilution air and 
exhaust air are well mixed (i.e., on the primary tunnel centerline, 
approximately 10 tunnel diameters downstream of the point where the 
exhaust enters the primary dilution tunnel).
    (2) Sufficiently distant (radially) from other sampling probes so as 
to be free from the influence of any wakes or eddies produced by the 
other probes.
    (3) 0.5 in. (1.3 cm) minimum inside diameter.
    (4) The distance from the sampling tip to the filter holder shall be 
at least 5 probe diameters for filters located inside the primary 
dilution tunnel, and not more than 40 inches (102 cm) for filters 
located outside the primary dilution tunnel.
    (5) Designed to minimize the deposition of particulate in the probe 
(i.e., bends should be as gradual as possible, protrusions (due to 
sensors, etc.) should be smooth and not sudden, etc.).
    (B) The particulate sample pump(s) shall be located sufficiently 
distant from the dilution tunnel so that the inlet gas temperature is 
maintained at a constant temperature (5  deg.F 
(2.8  deg.C)) if flow compensation is not used.
    (C) The gas meters or flow instrumentation shall be located 
sufficiently distant from the tunnel so that the inlet gas temperature 
remains constant (5  deg.F (2.8  deg.C)) if flow 
compensation is not used.
    (D) Other sample flow handling and/or measurement systems may be 
used if shown to yield equivalent results and if approved in advance by 
the Administrator.
    (ii) Double-dilution method. (A) The particulate sample transfer 
tube shall be configured and installed so that:

[[Page 843]]

    (1) The inlet faces upstream in the primary dilution tunnel at a 
point where the primary dilution air and exhaust are well mixed (i.e., 
on the primary tunnel centerline, approximately 10 tunnel diameters 
downstream of the point where the exhaust enters the primary dilution 
tunnel).
    (2) The particulate sample exits on the centerline of the secondary 
tunnel and points downstream.
    (B) The particulate sample transfer tube shall be:
    (1) Sufficiently distant (radially) from other sampling probes (in 
the primary dilution tunnel) so as to be free from the influence of any 
wakes or eddies produced by the other probes.
    (2) 0.5 in (1.3 cm) minimum inside diameter.
    (3) No longer than 36 in (91 cm) from inlet plane to exit plane.
    (4) Designed to minimize the deposition of particulate during 
transfer (i.e., bends should be as gradual as possible, protrusions (due 
to sensors, etc.) should be smooth and not sudden, etc.).
    (5) Constructed of electrically conductive material which does not 
react with the exhaust components, and electrically grounded.
    (C) The secondary dilution air shall be at a temperature of 
77 deg.9  deg.F (25 deg.5  deg.C). For the first 
10 seconds this specification is 77 deg.20  deg.F 
(25 deg.11  deg.C).
    (D) The secondary-dilution tunnel shall be:
    (1) 3.0 inches (7.6 cm) minimum inside diameter.
    (2) Of sufficient length so as to provide a residence time of at 
least 0.25 seconds for the double-diluted sample.
    (3) Constructed of electrically conductive material which does not 
react with the exhaust components, and electrically grounded.
    (E) Additional dilution air must be provided so as to maintain a 
sample temperature of 125  deg.F (51.7  deg.C) or less immediately 
before the primary sample filter.
    (F) The primary filter holder shall be located within 12.0 in (30.5 
cm) of the exit of the secondary dilution tunnel.
    (G) Other sample flow handling and/or measurement systems may be 
used if shown to yield equivalent results and if approved in advance by 
the Administrator.
    (7) Particulate sampling filters. (i) Fluorocarbon-coated glass 
fiber filters or fluorocarbon-based (membrane) filters are required.
    (ii) Particulate filters must have a minimum diameter of 70 mm (60 
mm stain diameter). Larger diameter filters are acceptable.
    (iii) The dilute exhaust will be simultaneously sampled by a pair of 
filters (one primary and one back-up filter) during the cold-start test 
and by a second pair of filters during the hot-start test. The back-up 
filter holder shall be located no more than 4 inches (10 cm) downstream 
of the primary filter holder. The primary and back-up filters shall not 
be in contact with each other.
    (iv) It is recommended that the filter loading should be maximized

    (a) Schematic drawings. Figure N90-9 is a schematic drawing of the 
exhaust gas analytical system used for analyzing CVS bag samples from 
either Otto-cycle or diesel engines. Since various configurations can 
produce accurate results, exact conformance with the drawing is not 
required. Additional components such as instruments, valves, solenoids, 
pumps and switches

may be used to provide additional information and coordinate the 
functions of the component systems. Other components such as snubbers, 
which are not needed to maintain accuracy in some systems, may be 
excluded if their exclusion is based upon good engineering judgment.


    (b) Major component description. The analytical system, Figure N90-
9, consists of a flame ionization detector (FID) (heated for methanol-
fueled (23515  deg.F (1138  deg.C)) and for 
petroleum-

[[Page 845]]

fueled diesel (375  deg.10  deg.F (191  deg.6 
deg.C) engines) for the measurement of hydrocarbons, nondispersive 
infrared analyzers (NDIR) for the measurement of carbon monoxide and 
carbon dioxide, and a chemiluminescence analyzer (CL) for the 
measurement of oxides of nitrogen. The analytical system for methanol 
consists of a gas chromatograph (GC), equipped with a flame ionization 
detector. The analysis for formaldehyde is performed using high pressure 
liquid chromatography (HPLC) of 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazine (DNPH) 
derivatives using ultraviolet (UV) detection. The exhaust gas analytical 
system shall conform to the following requirements:
    (1) The CL requires that the nitrogen dioxide present in the sample 
be converted to nitric oxide before analysis. Other types of analyzers 
may be used if shown to yield equivalent results and if approved in 
advance by the Administrator.
    (2) The carbon monoxide (NDIR) analyzer may require a sample 
conditioning column containing CaSO4, or dessicating silica 
gel to remove water vapor, and containing ascarite to remove carbon 
dioxide from the CO analysis stream.
    (i) If CO instruments are used which are essentially free of 
CO2 and water vapor interference, the use of the conditioning 
column may be deleted. (See Secs. 86.1322 and 86.1342.)
    (ii) A CO instrument will be considered to be essentially free of 
CO2 and water vapor interference if its response to a mixture 
of 3 percent CO2 in N2, which has been bubbled 
through water at room temperature, produces an equivalent CO response, 
as measured on the most sensitive CO range, which is less than 1 percent 
of full scale CO concentration on ranges above 300 ppm full scale or 
less than 3 ppm on ranges below 300 ppm full scale. (See Sec. 86.1322.)
    (c) Alternate analytical systems. Analysis systems meeting the 
specifications of 40 CFR part 86 subpart D may be used for testing 
required under this subpart, with the exception of Secs. 86.346 and 
86.347, provided that the subpart D systems meet the specifications of 
this subpart. Heated analyzers may be used in their heated 
configuration.
    (d) Other analyzers and equipment. Other types of analyzers and 
equipment may be used if shown to yield equivalent results and if

Sec. 86.1(b)(2).)
    (ii) For natural gas vehicles, the manufacturer has the option of 
using gas chromatography to measure NMHC through direct quantitation of 
individual hydrocarbon species. The manufacturer shall conform to 
standard industry practices and use good engineering judgement.
    (c) Alternate analytical systems. Analysis systems meeting the 
specifications of subpart D of this part may be used for testing 
required under this subpart, with the exception of Secs. 86.346 and

Sec. 86.1312-88  Weighing chamber and microgram balance specifications.

    (a) Ambient conditions. (1) Temperature. The ambient temperature of 
the chamber (or room) in which the particulate filters are conditioned 
and weighed shall be maintained at 295 K  3 K (22  deg.C 
 3  deg.C) during all filter conditioning and weighing.
    (2) Humidity. The humidity of the chamber (or room) in which the 
particulate filters are conditioned and weighed shall be maintained at a 
dew point temperature of 282.5 K  3 K (9.4  deg.C 
 3  deg.C) and a relative humidity of 45% 8%. 
Either the dew point temperature or the relative humidity or both may be 
averaged over the preceding 10 minute period on a moving average basis.
    (3) The chamber (or room) environment shall be free of any ambient 
contaminates (such as dust) that would settle on the particulate filters 
during their stabilization. It is required that at least two unused 
reference filter pairs remain in the weighing room at all times in 
covered (to reduce dust contamination) but unsealed (to permit humidity 
exchange) petri dishes. These reference filter pairs shall be placed in 
the same general area as the sample filters. These reference filter 
pairs shall be weighed within 4 hours of, but preferably at the same 
time as, the sample filter pair weighings.
    (4) If the average weight of the reference filter pairs changes 
between sample filter weighings by more than 40 micrograms, then all 
sample filters and background filters in the process of stabilization 
shall be discarded and the emissions tests repeated.
    (5) If the room (or chamber) environmental conditions are not met, 
then the filters shall remain in the conditioning room for at least one 
hour after correct conditions are met prior to weighing.
    (6) The reference filter pairs shall be changed at least once a 
month, but never between clean and used weighings of a given sample 
filter pairs. More than one set of reference filter pair may be used. 
The reference filters shall be the same size and material as the sample 
filters.

transducers shall be calibrated at least once each month with the

Sec. 86.1319-84  CVS calibration.

    (a) The CVS is calibrated using an accurate flowmeter and restrictor 
valve. The flowmeter calibration shall be traceable to the NBS, and will 
serve as the reference value (NBS ``true'' value) for the CVS 
calibration. (Note: In no case should an upstream screen or other 
restriction which can affect the flow be used ahead of the flowmeter 
unless calibrated throughout the flow range with such a device.) The CVS 
calibration procedures are designed for use of a ``metering venturi'' 
type flowmeter. Large radius or ASME flow nozzles are considered 
equivalent if traceable to NBS measurements. Other measurement systems 
may be used if shown to be equivalent under the test conditions in this 
action and traceable to NBS measurements. Measurements of the various 
flowmeter parameters are recorded and related to flow through the CVS. 
Procedures used by EPA for both PDP- and CFV-CVS's are outlined below. 
Other procedures yielding equivalent results may be used if approved in 
advance by the Administrator.
    (b) After the calibration curve has been obtained, verification of 
the entire system may be performed by injecting a known mass of gas into 
the system and comparing the mass indicated by the system to the true 
mass injected. An indicated error does not necessarily mean that the 
calibration is wrong, since other factors can influence the accuracy of 
the system (e.g., analyzer calibration, leaks, or HC hangup). A 
verification procedure is found in paragraph (e) of this section.
    (c) PDP calibration. (1) The following calibration procedure 
outlines the equipment, the test configuration, and the various 
parameters which must be measured to establish the flow rate of the CVS 
pump.
    (i) All the parameters related to the pump are simultaneously 
measured with the parameters related to a flowmeter which is connected 
in series with the pump.
    (ii) The calculated flow rate, ft3/min. (at a pump inlet 
absolute pressure and temperature), can then be plotted versus a 
correlation function which is the value of a specific combination of 
pump parameters.
    (iii) The linear equation which relates the pump flow and the 
correlation function is then determined.
    (iv) In the event that a CVS has a multiple speed drive, a 
calibration for each range used must be performed.
    (2) This calibration procedure is based on the measurement of the 
absolute values of the pump and flowmeter parameters that relate the 
flow rate at each point. Two conditions must be

[[Page 857]]

maintained to assure the accuracy and integrity of the calibration 
curve:
    (i) The temperature stability must be maintained during calibration. 
(Flowmeters are sensitive to inlet temperature oscillations; this can 
cause the data points to be scattered. Gradual changes in temperature 
are acceptable as long as they occur over a period of several minutes.)
    (ii) All connections and ducting between the flowmeter and the CVS 
pump must be absolutely void of leakage.
    (3) During an exhaust emission test the measurement of these same 
pump parameters enables the user to calculate the flow rate from the 
calibration equation.
    (4) Connect a system as shown in Figure N84-6. Although particular 
types of equipment are shown, other configurations that yield equivalent 
results may be used if approved in advance by the Administrator. For the 
system indicated, the following measurements and accuracies are 
required:

    (5) After the system has been connected as shown in Figure N84-6, 
set the variable restrictor in the wide open position and run the CVS 
pump for 20 minutes. Record the calibration data.

[[Page 858]]

    (6) Reset the restrictor valve to a more restricted condition in an 
increment of pump inlet depression that will yield a minimum of six data 
points for the total calibration. Allow the system to stabilize for 3 
minutes and repeat the data acquisition.
    (7) Data analysis: (i) The air flow rate, Qs, at each 
test point is calculated in standard cubic feet per minute (68  deg.F, 
29.92" Hg) from the flowmeter data using the manufacturer's prescribed 
method.
    (ii) The air flow rate is then converted to pump flow, 
Vo, in cubic feet per revolution at absolute pump inlet 
temperature and pressure:
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR06OC93.204

Where:
Vo=Pump flow, ft3/revolution (m3/
          revolution) at Tp, Pp
Qs=Meter air flow rate in standard cubic feet per minute, 
          standard conditions are 68  deg.F, 29.92 inches Hg (20  deg.C, 
          101.3 kPa)
n=Pump speed in revolutions per minute
Tp=Pump inlet temperature  deg.R( deg.K)
    =PTI + 460 ( deg.R), or
    =PTI + 273 ( deg.K)
Pp=Absolute pump inlet pressure, inches Hg (kPa)
    =PB - PPI (Sp. Gr./13.5955) and
    =PB - PPI for SI units
Where:
PB=barometric pressure, inches Hg (kPa)
PPI=Pump inlet depression, inches fluid (kPa)
Sp. Gr.=Specific gravity of manometer fluid

    (iii) The correlation function at each test point is then calculated 
from the calibration data.
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR06OC93.205

Where:

Xo = correlation function.
P = The pressure differential from pump 
          inlet to pump outlet, inches Hg (kPa).
     = Pe - Pp
Pe = Absolute pump outlet pressure, inches Hg (kPa)
     = PB + PPO(Sp. Gr./13.5955) and
     = PB for SI units

Where:

PPO = Pressure head at pump outlet, inches fluid (kPa).

    (iv) A linear least squares fit is performed to generate the 
calibration equation which has the form:

    Vo=Do - M(Xo)

    Do and M are the intercept and slope constants, 
respectively, describing the regression lines.
    (8) A CVS system that has multiple speeds should be calibrated on 
each speed used. The calibration curves generated for the ranges will be 
approximately parallel and the intercept values, Do, will 
increase as the pump flow range decreases.
    (9) If the calibration has been performed carefully, the calculated 
values from the equation will be within 0.50 percent of the 
measured value of Vo. Values of M will vary from one pump to 
another, but values of Do for pumps of the same make, model 
and range should agree within 3 percent of each other. 
Particulate influx over time will cause the pump slip to decrease, as 
reflected by lower values for M. Calibrations should be performed at 
pump start-up and after major maintenance to assure the stability of the 
pump slip rate. Analysis of mass injection data will also reflect pump 
slip stability.
    (d) CFV calibration. (1) Calibration of the CFV is based upon the 
flow equation for a critical venturi. Gas flow is a function of inlet 
pressure and temperature:
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR06OC93.206


The calibration procedure described in paragraph (d)(3) of this section 
establishes the value of the calibration coefficient at measured values 
of pressure, temperature and air flow.
    (2) The manufacturer's recommended procedure shall be followed for 
calibrating electronic portions of the CFV.
    (3) Measurements necessary for flow calibration are as follows:

    (4) Set up equipment as shown in Figure N84-7 and eliminate leaks. 
(Leaks between the flow measuring devices and the critical flow venturi 
will seriously affect the accuracy of the calibration.)
    (5) Set the variable flow restrictor to the open position, start the 
blower, and allow the system to stabilize. Record data from all 
instruments.
    (6) Vary the flow restrictor and make at least eight readings across 
the critical flow range of the venturi.
    (7) Data analysis. The data recorded during the calibration are to 
be used in the following calculations:
    (i) The air flow rate, Qs, at each test point is calculated in 
standard cubic feet per minute from the flow meter data using the 
manufacturer's prescribed method.
    (ii) Calculate values of the calibration coefficient for each test 
point:
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR06OC93.207

    (iii) Plot Kv as a function of venturi inlet pressure. 
For choked flow, Kv will have a relatively constant value. As 
pressure decreases (vacuum increases), the venturi becomes unchoked and 
Kv decreases. (See Figure N84-8.)


    (iv) For a minimum of 8 points in the critical region calculate an 
average Kv and the standard deviation.
    (v) If the standard deviation exceeds 0.3 percent of the average 
Kv, take corrective action.
    (e) CVS system verification. The following ``gravimetric'' technique 
can be used to verify that the CVS and analytical instruments can 
accurately measure a mass of gas that has been injected into the system. 
(Verification can also be accomplished by constant flow metering using 
critical flow orifice devices.)

[[Page 861]]

    (1) Obtain a small cylinder that has been charged with pure propane.
    (2) Determine the weight of the reference propane cylinder to an 
accuracy of 0.2 percent or less of the actual amount of 
propane discharged into the system.
    (3) Operate the CVS in the normal manner and release a quantity of 
pure propane into the system during the sampling period (approximately 5 
minutes).
    (4) The calculations of Sec. 86.1342 are performed in the normal way 
except in the case of propane. The density of propane (17.30 g/
ft3/carbon atom (0.6109 kg/m3/carbon atom)) is 
used in place of the density of exhaust hydrocarbons.
    (5) The gravimetric mass is subtracted from the CVS measured mass 
and then divided by the gravimetric mass to determine the percent 
accuracy of the system.
    (6) Good engineering practice requires that the cause for any 
discrepancy greater than  2 percent must be found and 
corrected.

Sec. 86.1319-90  CVS calibration.

    (a) The CVS is calibrated using an accurate flowmeter and restrictor 
valve. The flowmeter calibration shall be traceable to the NBS, and will 
serve as the reference value (NBS ``true'' value) for the CVS 
calibration. (Note: In no case should an upstream screen or other 
restriction which can affect the flow be used ahead of the flowmeter 
unless calibrated throughout the flow range with such a device.) The CVS 
calibration procedures are designed for use of a ``metering venturi'' 
type flowmeter. Large radius or ASME flow nozzles are considered 
equivalent if traceable to NBS measurements. Other measurement systems 
may be used if shown to be equivalent under the test conditions in this 
section and traceable to NBS measurements. Measurements of the various 
flowmeter parameters are recorded and related to flow through the CVS. 
Procedures used by EPA for both PDP-CVS and CFV-CVS are outlined below. 
Other procedures yielding equivalent results may be used if approved in 
advance by the Administrator.
    (b) After the calibration curve has been obtained, verification of 
the entire system may be performed by injecting a known mass of gas into 
the system and comparing the mass indicated by the system to the true 
mass injected. An indicated error does not necessarily mean that the 
calibration is wrong, since other factors can influence the accuracy of 
the system (e.g., analyzer calibration, leaks, or HC hangup). A 
verification procedure is found in paragraph (e) of this section.
    (c) PDP calibration. (1) The following calibration procedure 
outlines the equipment, the test configuration, and the various 
parameters which must be measured to establish the flow rate of the CVS 
pump.
    (i) All the parameters related to the pump are simultaneously 
measured with the parameters related to a flowmeter which is connected 
in series with the pump.
    (ii) The calculated flow rate, ft \3\/min, (at pump inlet absolute 
pressure and temperature) can then be plotted versus a correlation 
function which is the value of a specific combination of pump 
parameters.
    (iii) The linear equation which relates the pump flow and the 
correlation function is then determined.
    (iv) In the event that a CVS has a multiple speed drive, a 
calibration for each range used must be performed.
    (2) This calibration procedure is based on the measurement of the 
absolute values of the pump and flowmeter parameters that relate the 
flow rate at each point. Two conditions must be maintained to assure the 
accuracy and integrity of the calibration curve:
    (i) The temperature stability must be maintained during calibration. 
(Flowmeters are sensitive to inlet temperature oscillations; this can 
cause the data points to be scattered. Gradual changes in temperature 
are acceptable as long as they occur over a period of several minutes.)
    (ii) All connections and ducting between the flowmeter and the CVS 
pump must be absolutely void of leakage.
    (3) During an exhaust emission test the measurement of these same 
pump

[[Page 862]]

parameters enables the user to calculate the flow rate from the 
calibration equation.
    (4) Connect a system as shown in Figure N84-6. Although particular 
types of equipment are shown, other configurations that yield equivalent 
results may be used if approved in advance by the Administrator. For the 
system indicated, the following measurements and accuracies are 
required:

    (5) After the system has been connected as shown in Figure N84-6, 
set the variable restrictor in the wide open position and run the CVS 
pump for 20 minutes. Record the calibration data.
    (6) Reset the restrictor valve to a more restricted condition in an 
increment of pump inlet depression that will yield a minimum of six data 
points for the total calibration. Allow the system to stabilize for 3 
minutes and repeat the data acquisition.
    (7) Data analysis:
    (i) The air flow rate, Qs, at each test point is 
calculated in standard cubic feet per minute (68 deg., 29.92 in. Hg.) 
from the flowmeter data using the manufacturer's prescribed method.
    (ii) The air flow rate is then converted to pump flow, 
Vo, in cubic feet per revolution at absolute pump inlet 
temperature and pressure:

Vo = (Qs/n)  x  (Tp/528)  x  (29.92/
Pp)

Where:
    (A) Vo = Pump flow, ft\3\/rev (m\3\/rev) at 
Tp, Pp.
    (B) Qs = Meter air flow rate in standard cubic feet per 
minute, standard conditions are 68  deg.F, 29.92 in. Hg (20  deg.C, 
101.3 kPa).
    (C) n = Pump speed in revolutions per minute.
    (D) Tp = Pump inlet temperature  deg.R( deg.K) = PTI + 
460 ( deg.R), or = PTI + 273 ( deg.K).
    (E) Pp = Absolute pump inlet pressure, in. Hg. (kPa)
    = PB - PPI(Sp.Gr./13.5955) and
    = PB - PPI for SI units.

Where:
    (F) PB = barometric pressure, in. Hg. (kPa).
    (G) PPI = Pump inlet depression, in. fluid (kPa).
    (H) Sp.Gr. = Specific gravity of manometer fluid.
    (iii) The correlation function at each test point is then calculated 
from the calibration data:
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR06OC93.209


Where:
    (A) Xo = correlation function.
    (B) Dp = The pressure differential from pump inlet to 
pump outlet, in. Hg. (kPa).
    = Pe-Pp.
    (C) Pe = Absolute pump outlet pressure, in. Hg. (kPa)
    = PB + PPO (Sp.Gr./13.5955) and
    = PB + PPO for SI units.

Where:
    (D) PPO = Pressure head at pump outlet, in. fluid (kPa).
    (iv) A linear least squares fit is performed to generate the 
calibration equation which has the form:
    Vo = Do - M(Xo)

[[Page 863]]

    Do and M are the intercept and slope constants, 
respectively, describing the regression line.
    (8) A CVS system that has multiple speeds should be calibrated on 
each speed used. The calibration curves generated for the ranges will be 
approximately parallel and the intercept values, Do, will 
increase as the pump flow range decreases.
    (9) If the calibration has been performed carefully, the calculated 
values from the equation will be within 0.50 percent of the 
measured value of Vo. Values of M will vary from one pump to 
another, but values of Do for pumps of the same make, model 
and range should agree within 3 percent of each other. 
Particulate influx over time will cause the pump slip to decrease, as 
reflected by lower values for M. Calibrations should be performed at 
pump start-up and after major maintenance to assure the stability of the 
pump slip rate. Analysis of mass injection data will also reflect pump 
slip stability.
    (d) CFV calibration. (1) Calibration of the CFV is based upon the 
flow equation for a critical venturi. Gas flow is a function of inlet 
pressure and temperature:
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR06OC93.210


Where:
    (i) Qs = flow.
    (ii) Kv = calibration coefficient.
    (iii) P = absolute pressure.
    (iv) T = absolute temperature.
    The calibration procedure described in paragraph (d)(3) of this 
section establishes the value of the calibration coefficient at measured 
values of pressure, temperature and air flow.
    (2) The manufacturer's recommended procedure shall be followed for 
calibrating electronic portions of the CFV.
    (3) Measurements necessary for flow calibration are as follows:

    (4) Set up equipment as shown in Figure N84-7 and eliminate leaks. 
(Leaks between the flow measuring devices and the critical flow venturi 
will seriously affect the accuracy of the calibration.)
    (5) Set the variable flow restrictor to the open position, start the 
blower, and allow the system to stabilize. Record data from all 
instruments.
    (6) Vary the flow restrictor and make at least eight readings across 
the critical flow range of the venturi.
    (7) Data analysis. The data recorded during the calibration are to 
be used in the following calculations:
    (i) The air flow rate, Qs, at each test point is 
calculated in standard cubic feet per minute from the flow meter data 
using the manufacturer's prescribed method.
    (ii) Calculate values of the calibration coefficient for each test 
point:
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TC07JA94.021


Where:
    (A) Qs = Flow rate in standard cubic feet per minute, at 
the standard conditions of 68  deg.F, 29.92 in Hg (20  deg.C, 101.3 
kPa).
    (B) Tv = Temperature at venturi inlet,  deg.R( deg.K).
    (C) Pv = Pressure at venturi inlet, in. Hg. (kPA)
         = PB - PPI (Sp.GR./13.5955), and
         = PB - PPI for SI units.

Where:
    (D) PPI = Venturi inlet pressure depression, in. fluid (kPa).
    (E) Sp.Gr. = Specific gravity of manometer fluid.
    (iii) Plot Kv as a function of venturi inlet pressure. 
For choked flow, Kv will have a relatively constant value. As 
pressure decreases (vacuum increases), the venturi becomes unchoked and 
Kv decreases. (See Figure N84-8.)
    (iv) For a minimum of 8 points in the critical region calculate an 
average Kv and the standard deviation.
    (v) If the standard deviation exceeds 0.3 percent of the average 
Kv, take corrective action.
    (e) CVS system verification. The following ``gravimetric'' technique 
can be used to verify that the CVS and analytical instruments can 
accurately measure a mass of gas that has been injected into the system. 
(Verification can also be accomplished by constant flow metering using 
critical flow orifice devices.)
    (1) Obtain a small cylinder that has been charged with pure propane 
or carbon monoxide gas (CAUTION--carbon monoxide is poisonous).
    (2) Determine a reference cylinder weight to the nearest 0.01 grams.
    (3) Operate the CVS in the normal manner and release a quantity of 
pure propane into the system during the sampling period (approximately 5 
minutes).
    (4) Following completion of step (3) above (if methanol injection is 
required), continue to operate the CVS in the normal manner and release 
a known quantity of pure methanol (in gaseous form) into the system 
during the sampling period (approximately five minutes). This step does 
not need to be performed with each verification, provided that it is 
performed at least twice annually.
    (5) The calculations of Sec. 86.1342 are performed in the normal way 
except in the case of propane. The density of propane (17.30 g/ft\3\/
carbon atom (0.6109 kg/m\3\/carbon atom)) is used in place of the 
density of exhaust hydrocarbons. In the case of methanol, the density of 
37.71 g/ft\3\ (1.332 kg/m\3\) is used.
    (6) The gravimetric mass is subtracted from the CVS measured mass 
and then divided by the gravimetric mass to determine the percent 
accuracy of the system.
    (7) The cause for any discrepancy greater than 2 percent 
must be found and corrected. (For 1991-1995 calendar years, 
discrepancies greater than 2 percent are allowed for the 
methanol test, provided that they do not exceed 6 percent.)
    (8) The Administrator, upon request, may waive the requirement to 
comply with 2 percent methanol recovery tolerance, and 
instead require compliance with a higher tolerance (not to exceed 
6 percent), provided that:
    (i) The Administrator determines that compliance with these 
specified tolerances is not practically feasible; and

[[Page 866]]

    (ii) The manufacturer makes information available to the 
Administrator which indicates that the calibration tests and their 
results are consistent with good laboratory practice, and that the 
results are consistent with the results of calibration testing conducted 
by the Administrator.

Sec. 86.1320-90  Gas meter or flow instrumentation calibration; particulate, methanol, and formaldehyde measurement.

    (a) Sampling for particulate, methanol and formaldehyde emissions 
requires the use of gas meters or flow instrumentation to determine flow 
through the particulate filters, methanol impingers and formaldehyde 
impingers. These instruments shall receive initial and periodic 
calibrations as follows:
    (1)(i) Install a calibration device in series with the instrument. A 
critical flow orifice, a bellmouth nozzle, or a laminar flow element or 
an NBS traceable flow calibration device is required as the standard 
device.
    (ii) The flow system should be checked for leaks between the 
calibration and sampling meters, including any pumps that may be part of 
the system, using good engineering practice.
    (2) Flow air through the calibration system at the sample flow rate 
used for particulate, methanol, and formaldehyde testing and at the 
backpressure which occurs during the sample test.
    (3) When the temperature and pressure in the system have stabilized, 
measure the indicated gas volume over a time period of at least five 
minutes or until a gas volume of at least 1 percent accuracy 
can be determined by the standard device. Record the stabilized air 
temperature and pressure upstream of the instrument and as required for 
the standard device.
    (4) Calculate air flow at standard conditions as measured by both 
the standard device and the instrument(s). (Standard  conditions  are  
defined  as  68  deg.F (20  deg.C) and 29.92 in Hg (101.3 kPa).)
    (5) Repeat the procedures of paragraphs (a) (2) through (4) of this 
section using at least two flow rates which bracket the typical 
operating range.
    (6) If the air flow at standard conditions measured by the 
instrument differs by 1.0 percent of the maximum operating 
range or 2.0 percent of the point (whichever is smaller), 
then a correction shall be made by either of the following two methods:
    (i) Mechanically adjust the instrument so that it agrees with the 
calibration measurement at the specified flow rates using the criteria 
of paragraph (a)(6) of this section, or
    (ii) Develop a continuous best fit calibration curve for the 
instrument (as a function of the calibration device flow measurement) 
from the calibration points to determine corrected flow. The points on 
the calibration curve relative to the calibration device measurements 
must be within 1.0 percent of the maximum operating range of 
2.0 percent of the point (whichever is smaller).
    (7) For double dilution systems, the accuracy of the secondary 
dilution flow measurement device should be within 1.0 
percent of the total flow through the filter.
    (b) Other systems. A bell prover may be used to calibrate the 
instrument if the procedure outlined in ANSI B109.1-1973 is used. Prior 
approval by the Administrator is not required to use the bell prover.

Sec. 86.1321-90  Hydrocarbon analyzer calibration.

    The FID hydrocarbon analyzer shall receive the following initial and 
periodic calibration. The HFID used with petroleum-fueled diesel engines 
shall be operated to a set point 10  deg.F (5.5 
deg.C) between 365 and 385  deg.F (185 and 197  deg.C). The HFID used 
with methanol-fueled engines shall be operated at 23515 
deg.F (1138  deg.C).
    (a) Initial and periodic optimization of detector response. Prior to 
introduction into service and at least annually thereafter, the FID 
hydrocarbon analyzer shall be adjusted for optimum hydrocarbon response.
    (1) Follow good engineering practices for initial instrument start-
up and basic operating adjustment using the

[[Page 867]]

appropriate fuel (see Sec. 86.1314) and zero-grade air.
    (2) Optimize the FID's response on the most common operating range. 
The response is to be optimized with respect to fuel pressure or flow 
while meeting the analyzer response time given in 
Sec. 86.1310(b)(3)(vii)(A) for continuous HC measurement. Efforts shall 
be made to minimize response variations to different hydrocarbon species 
that are expected to be in the exhaust. Good engineering judgement is to 
be used to trade off optimal FID response to propane-in-air against 
reductions in relative responses to other hydrocarbons. A good example 
of trading off response on propane for relative responses to other 
hydrocarbon species is given in Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) 
Paper No. 770141, ``Optimization of Flame Ionization Detector for 
Determination of Hydrocarbon in Diluted Automotive Exhausts''; author 
Glenn D. Reschke. It is also required that the response be set to 
optimum condition with respect to air flow and sample flow. Heated Flame 
Ionization Detectors (HFIDs) must be at their specified operating 
temperature.
    (3) One of the following procedures is to be used for FID or HFID 
optimization:
    (i) Use the procedures outlined in Society of Automotive Engineers 
(SAE) paper No. 770141, ``Optimization of Flame Ionization Detector for 
Determination of Hydrocarbons in Diluted Automobile Exhaust''; author, 
Glenn D. Reschke, as an example.
    (ii) The HFID optimization procedures outlined in 40 CFR part 86, 
subpart D, Sec. 86.331-79(c).
    (iii) Alternative procedures may be used if approved in advance by 
the Administrator.
    (iv) The procedures specified by the manufacturer of the FID or 
HFID.
    (4) After the optimum fuel, air, and sample pressures or flow rates 
have been determined, they shall be recorded for future reference.
    (b) Initial and periodic calibration. Prior to introduction into 
service and monthly thereafter, the FID or HFID hydrocarbon analyzer 
shall be calibrated on all normally used instrument ranges. Use the same 
flow rate and pressures as when analyzing samples. Calibration gases 
shall be introduced directly at the analyzer, unless the ``overflow'' 
calibration option of Sec. 86.1310(b)(3)(i) for the HFID is taken.
    (1) Adjust analyzer to optimize performance.
    (2) Zero the hydrocarbon analyzer with zero-grade air.
    (3) Calibrate on each used operating range with a minimum of 6, 
approximately equally spaced, propane-in-air calibration gases (e.g., 
15, 30, 45, 60, 75, and 90 percent of that range). For each range 
calibrated, if the deviation from a least-squares best-fit straight line 
is within 2 percent of the value at each non-zero data point 
and within 0.3 percent of full scale on the zero data point, 
then concentration values may be calculated by using the linear 
calibration equation for that range. If the deviation exceeds these 
limits, then the best-fit non-linear equation which represents the data 
within these limits shall be used to determine concentration values.
    (c) FID response factor to methanol. When the FID analyzer is to be 
used for the analysis of hydrocarbon samples containing methanol, the 
methanol response factor of the analyzer shall be established. The 
methanol response factor shall be determined at several concentrations 
in the range of concentrations in the exhaust sample.
    (1) The bag sample of methanol for analysis in the FID shall be 
prepared using the apparatus shown in Figure N90-10. A known volume of 
methanol is injected, using a microliter syringe, into the heated mixing 
zone (250  deg.F (121  deg.C)) of the apparatus. The methanol is 
vaporized and swept into the sample bag with a known volume of zero-
grade air measured by a dry gas meter.

Sec. 86.1321-94  Hydrocarbon analyzer calibration.

    The FID hydrocarbon analyzer shall receive the following initial and 
periodic calibration. The HFID used with petroleum-fueled, natural gas-
fueled and liquefied petroleum gas-fueled diesel engines shall be 
operated to a set point 10  deg.F (5.5  deg.C) 
between 365 and 385  deg.F (185 and 197  deg.C). The HFID used with 
methanol-fueled engines shall be operated at 235 15  deg.F 
(113 8  deg.C).
    (a) Initial and periodic optimization of detector response. Prior to 
introduction into service and at least annually thereafter, the FID 
hydrocarbon analyzer shall be adjusted for optimum hydrocarbon response.
    (1) Follow good engineering practices for initial instrument start-
up and basic operating adjustment using the appropriate fuel (see 
Sec. 86.1314) and zero-grade air.
    (2) Optimize the FID's response on the most common operating range. 
The response is to be optimized with respect to fuel pressure or flow 
while meeting the analyzer response time given in 
Sec. 86.1310(b)(3)(vii)(A) for continuous HC measurement. Efforts shall 
be made to minimize response variations to different hydrocarbon species 
that are expected to be in the exhaust. Good engineering judgement is to 
be used to trade off optimal FID response to propane-in-air against 
reductions in relative responses to other hydrocarbons. A good example 
of trading off response on propane for relative responses to other 
hydrocarbon species is given in Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) 
Paper No. 770141, ``Optimization of Flame Ionization Detector for 
Determination of Hydrocarbon in Diluted Automotive Exhausts''; author 
Glenn D. Reschke. It is also required that the response be set to 
optimum condition with respect to air flow and sample flow. Heated Flame 
Ionization Detectors (HFIDs) must be at their specified operating 
temperature.
    (3) One of the following procedures is to be used for FID or HFID 
optimization:
    (i) Use the procedures outlined in Society of Automotive Engineers 
(SAE) paper number 770141, ``Optimization of Flame Ionization Detector 
for Determination of Hydrocarbons in Diluted Automobile Exhaust''; 
author, Glenn D. Reschke, as an example. Available from Society of 
Automotive Engineers International, 400 Commonwealth Dr., Warrendale, PA 
15096-0001.
    (ii) The procedure listed in subpart D, Sec. 86.331-79(c) of this 
part.
    (iii) The procedures specified by the manufacturer of the FID or 
HFID.
    (iv) Alternative procedures may be used if approved in advance by 
the Administrator.
    (4) After the optimum fuel, air and sample pressures or flow rates 
have been determined, they shall be recorded for future reference.
    (b) Initial and periodic calibration. Prior to introduction into 
service and monthly thereafter, the FID or HFID hydrocarbon analyzer 
shall be calibrated on all normally used instrument ranges. Use the same 
flow rate and pressures as when analyzing samples. Calibration gases 
shall be introduced directly at the analyzer, unless the ``overflow'' 
calibration option of Sec. 86.1310(b)(3)(i) for the HFID is taken.
    (1) Adjust analyzer to optimize performance.
    (2) Zero the hydrocarbon analyzer with zero-grade air.
    (3) Calibrate on each used operating range with a minimum of 6, 
approximately equally spaced, propane-in-air calibration gases (e.g., 
15, 30, 45, 60, 75, and 90 percent of that range). For each range 
calibrated, if the deviation from a least-squares best-fit straight line 
is within 2 percent of the value at each non-zero data point 
and within 0.3 percent of full scale on the zero data point, 
then concentration values may be calculated by using the linear 
calibration equation for that range. If the deviation exceeds these 
limits, then the best-fit non-linear equation which represents the data 
within these limits shall be used to determine concentration values.

[[Page 870]]

    (c) FID response factor to methanol. When the FID analyzer is to be 
used for the analysis of hydrocarbon samples containing methanol, the 
methanol response factor of the analyzer shall be established. The 
methanol response factor shall be determined at several concentrations 
in the range of concentrations in the exhaust sample, using either bag 
samples or gas bottles meeting the requirements of Sec. 86.1314.
    (1) The bag sample of methanol for analysis in the FID, if used, 
shall be prepared using the apparatus shown in Figure N94-10. A known 
volume of methanol is injected, using a microliter syringe, into the 
heated mixing zone (250  deg.F (121  deg.C)) of the apparatus. The 
methanol is vaporized and swept into the sample bag with a known volume 
of zero grade air measured by a gas flow meter meeting the 
specifications of Sec. 86.1320.

[[Page 871]]

    (2) The bag sample is analyzed using the FID.
    (3) The FID response factor, r, is calculated as follows:
    r=FIDppm/SAMppm
    Where:
    (i) r=FID response factor.
    (ii) FIDppm=FID reading in ppmC.

    (iii) SAMppm=methanol concentration in the sample bag, or gas 
bottle, in ppmC. SAMppm for sample bags:

    (vii) Air volume=volume of zero-grade air, m3.
    (viii) Mol. Wt. CH3OH=32.04.
    (d) FID response factor to methane. When the FID analyzer is to be 
used for the analysis of natural gas-fueled vehicle hydrocarbon samples, 
the methane response factor of the analyzer shall be established. To 
determine the total hydrocarbon FID response to methane, known methane 
in air concentrations traceable to National Institute of Standards and 
Technology (NIST) shall be analyzed by the FID. Several methane 
concentrations shall be analyzed by the FID in the range of 
concentrations in the exhaust sample. The total hydrocarbon FID response 
to methane is calculated as follows:
rCH4=FIDppm/SAMppm
Where:
    (1) rCH4=FID response factor to methane.
    (2) FIDppm=FID reading in ppmC.
    (3) SAMppm=the known methane concentration in ppmC.

Sec. 86.1322-84  Carbon monoxide analyzer calibration.

    The NDIR carbon monoxide analyzer shall receive the following 
initial and periodic calibration.
    (a) Initial and periodic interference check. Prior to its 
introduction into service and annually thereafter, the NDIR carbon 
monoxide analyzer shall be checked for response to water vapor and 
CO2:
    (1) Follow good engineering practices for instrument start-up and 
operation. Adjust the analyzer to optimize performance on the most 
sensitive range to be used.
    (2) Zero the carbon monoxide analyzer with either zero-grade air or 
zero-grade nitrogen.
    (3) Bubble a mixture of 3 percent CO2 in N2 
through water at room temperature and record analyzer response.
    (4) An analyzer response of more than 1 percent of full scale for 
ranges above 300 ppm full scale or more than 3 ppm on ranges below 300 
ppm full scale requires corrective action. (Use of conditioning columns 
is one form of corrective action which may be taken.)
    (b) Initial and periodic calibration. Prior to its introduction into 
service and monthly thereafter, the NDIR carbon monoxide analyzer shall 
be calibrated.
    (1) Adjust the analyzer to optimize performance.
    (2) Zero the carbon monoxide analyzer with either zero-grade air or 
zero-grade nitrogen.
    (3) Calibrate on each used operating range with a minimum of 6, 
approximately equally spaced, carbon monoxide-in-N2 
calibration gases (e.g., 15, 30, 45, 60, 75, and 90 percent of that 
range). For each range calibrated, if the deviation from a least-squares 
best-fit straight line is within 2 percent of the value at 
each non-zero data point and within 0.3 percent of full 
scale on the zero data point, then concentration values may be 
calculated by using the linear calibration equation for that range. If 
the deviation exceeds these limits, then the best-fit not-linear 
equation which represents the data within these limits shall be used to 
determine concentration values.
    (c) The initial and periodic interference, system check, and 
calibration test procedures specified in 40 CFR part 86, subpart D may 
be used in lieu of the procedures specified in this section.

Sec. 86.1323-84  Oxides of nitrogen analyzer calibration.

    The chemiluminescent oxides of nitrogen analyzer shall receive the 
following initial and periodic calibration.
    (a) Prior to introduction into service and at least monthly 
thereafter, the chemiluminescent oxides of nitrogen

[[Page 873]]

analyzer must be checked for NO2 to NO converter efficiency. Figure N84-
9 is a reference for paragraphs (a) (1) through (11) of this section.
    (1) Follow good engineering practices for instrument start-up and 
operation. Adjust the analyzer to optimize performance.
    (2) Zero the oxides of nitrogen analyzer with zero-grade air or 
zero-grade nitrogen.
    (3) Connect the outlet of the NOX generator to the sample 
inlet of the oxides of nitrogen analyzer which has been set to the most 
common operating range.
    (4) Introduce into the NOX generator analyzer-system an 
NO-in-nitrogen (N2) mixture with an NO concentration equal to 
approximately 80 percent of the most common operating range. The 
NO2 content of the gas mixture shall be less than 5 percent 
of the NO concentration.


    (5) With the oxides of nitrogen analyzer in the NO mode, record the 
concentration of NO indicated by the analyzer.

[[Page 874]]

    (6) Turn on the NOX generator O2 (or air) 
supply and adjust the O2 (or air) flow rate so that the NO 
indicated by the analyzer is about 10 percent less than indicated in 
paragraph (a)(5) of this section. Record the concentration of NO in this 
NO + O2 mixture.
    (7) Switch the NOX generator to the generation mode and 
adjust the generation rate so that the NO measured on the analyzer is 20 
percent of that measured in paragraph (a)(5) of this section. There must 
be at least 10 percent unreacted NO at this point. Record the 
concentration of residual NO.
    (8) Switch the oxides of nitrogen analyzer to the NOX 
mode and measure total NOX. Record this value.
    (9) Switch off the NOX generator but maintain gas flow 
through the system. The oxides of nitrogen analyzer will indicate the 
NOX in the NO + O2 mixture. Record this value.
    (10) Turn off the NOX generator O2 (or air) 
supply. The analyzer will now indicate the NOX in the 
original NO-in-N2 mixture. This value should be no more than 
5 percent above the value indicated in paragraph (a)(4) of this section.
    (11) Calculate the efficiency of the NOX converter by 
substituting the concentrations obtained into the following equation:
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR06OC93.212

Where:

a = concentration obtained in paragraph (a)(8),
b = concentration obtained in paragraph (a)(9),
c = concentration obtained in paragraph (a)(6),
d = concentration obtained in paragraph (a)(7).


If converter efficiency is not greater than 90 percent corrective action 
will be required.
    (b) Initial and periodic calibration. Prior to its introduction into 
service and monthly thereafter, the chemiluminescent oxides of nitrogen 
analyzer shall be calibrated on all normally used instrument ranges. Use 
the same flow rate as when analyzing samples. Proceed as follows:
    (1) Adjust analyzer to optimize performance.
    (2) Zero the oxides of nitrogen analyzer with zero-grade air or 
zero-grade nitrogen.
    (3) Calibrate on each used operating range with a minimum of 6, 
approximately equally spaced, NO-in-N2 calibration gases 
(e.g., 15, 30, 45, 60, 75, and 90 percent of that range). For each range 
calibrated, if the deviation from a least-squares best-fit straight line 
is within 2 percent of the value at each non-zero data point 
and within 0.3 percent of full scale on the zero data point, 
then concentration values may be calculated using the linear calibration 
equation for that range. If the deviation exceeds these limits, then the 
best-fit non-linear equation which represents the data within these 
limits shall be used to determine concentration values.
    (c) The initial and periodic interference, system check, and 
calibration test procedures specified in 40 CFR part 86, subpart D, may 
be used in lieu of the procedures specified in this section.
    (d) When testing methanol-fueled engines it may be necessary to 
clean the analyzer frequently to prevent interference with 
NOX measurements (see EPA/60/S3-88/040).

Sec. 86.1324-84  Carbon dioxide analyzer calibration.

    Prior to its introduction into service and monthly thereafter, the 
NDIR carbon dioxide analyzer shall be calibrated as follows:
    (a) Follow good engineering practices for instrument start-up and 
operation. Adjust the analyzer to optimize performance.
    (b) Zero the carbon dioxide analyzer with either zero-grade air or 
zero-grade nitrogen.
    (c) Calibrate on each used operating range with a minimum of 6, 
approximately equally spaced, carbon dioxide-in-N2 
calibration or span gases (e.g., 15, 30, 45, 60, 75, and 90 percent of 
that range). For each range calibrated, if the deviation from a least-
squares best-fit straight line is within 2 percent or

[[Page 875]]

less of the value at each non-zero data point and within 0.3 
percent of full scale on the zero data point, then concentration values 
may be calculated by using the linear calibration equation for that 
range. If the deviation exceeds these limits, then the best-fit non-
linear equation which represents the data within these limits shall be 
used to determine concentration values.
    (d) The initial and periodic interference, system check, and 
calibration test procedures specified in 40 CFR part 86, subpart D, may

calibrated, if the deviation from a least-squares best-fit straight line 
is within 2 percent of the value at each non-zero data point 
and within 0.3 percent of full scale on the zero data point, 
then concentration values may be calculated by using the linear

limits, then the best-fit non-linear equation which represents the data 
within these limits shall be used to determine concentration values.

    Other test equipment used for testing shall be calibrated as often 
as required by the manufacturer or as necessary according to good 
practice. Specific equipment requiring calibration is the gas 
chromatograph and flame ionization detector used in measuring methanol

Sec. 86.1327-90  Engine dynamometer test procedures; overview.

    (a) The engine dynamometer test procedure is designed to determine 
the brake specific emissions of hydrocarbons, nonmethane hydrocarbons 
carbon monoxide, oxides of nitrogen, particulate, methanol and 
formaldehyde, as applicable. The test procedure consists of a ``cold'' 
start test following either natural or forced cool-down periods 
described in Secs. 86.1334 and 86.1335, respectively. A ``hot'' start 
test follows the ``cold'' start test after a hot soak of 20 minutes. The 
idle test of subpart P of this part may be run after the ``hot'' start 
test. The exhaust emissions are diluted with ambient air and a 
continuous proportional sample is collected for analysis during both the 
cold- and hot-start tests. The composite samples collected are analyzed 
either in bags or continuously for hydrocarbons (HC), methane 
(CH4--as applicable), carbon monoxide (CO), carbon dioxide 
(CO2), and oxides of nitrogen (NOX), or in sample 
collection impingers for methanol (CH3OH) and sample 
collection impingers (or cartridges) for formaldehyde (HCHO). 
Measurement of CH3OH and HCHO may be omitted for 1990 through 
1994 model year methanol-fueled engines when a FID calibrated on 
methanol is used. A bag or continuous sample of the dilution air is 
similarly analyzed for background levels of hydrocarbon, carbon 
monoxide, carbon dioxide, and oxides of nitrogen and, if appropriate, 
methane and/or methanol and/or formaldehyde. In addition, for diesel-
cycle engines, particulates are collected on fluorocarbon-coated glass 
fiber filters or fluorocarbon-based (membrane) filters, and the dilution 
air may be prefiltered.
    (b) Engine torque and rpm command set points shall be issued at 5 
(10 Hz recommended) Hz or greater during both the cold and hot start 
tests. Feedback engine torque and rpm shall be recorded at least once 
every second during the test.
    (c) Using the torque and rpm feedback signals the brake horsepower 
is

[[Page 876]]

integrated with respect to time for the cold and hot cycles. This 
produces a brake horsepower-hour value that enables the brake-specific 
emissions to be determined (see Sec. 86.1342, Calculations; gaseous 
exhaust emissions., and Sec. 86.1343, Calculations; particulate exhaust 
emissions.).
    (d)(1) When an engine is tested for exhaust emissions or is operated 
for service accumulation on an engine dynamometer, the complete engine 
shall be tested, with all emission control devices installed and 
functioning.
    (2) Evaporative emission controls need not be connected if data are 
provided to show that normal operating conditions are maintained in the 
engine induction system.
    (3) On air-cooled engines, the fan shall be installed.
    (4) Additional accessories (e.g., oil cooler, alternators, air 
compressors, etc.) may be installed or their loading simulated if 
typical of the in-use application.
    (5) The engine may be equipped with a production type starter.
    (e) Means of engine cooling which will maintain the engine operating 
temperatures (e.g., temperatures of intake air, oil, water, etc.) at 
approximately the same temperature as specified by the manufacturer 
shall be used. Auxiliary fan(s) may be used to maintain engine cooling 
during operation on the dynamometer. Rust inhibitors and lubrication 
additives may be used, up to the levels recommended by the additive 
manufacturer. Antifreeze mixtures and other coolants typical of those 
approved for use by the manufacturer may be used.
    (f) Exhaust system. The exhaust system shall meet the following 
requirements:
    (1) Gasoline-fueled and methanol-fueled Otto-cycle engines. A 
chassis-type exhaust system shall be used. For all catalyst systems, the 
distance from the exhaust manifold flange(s) to the catalyst shall be 
the same as in the vehicle configuration unless the manufacturer 
provides data showing equivalent performance at another location. The 
catalyst container may be removed during all test sequences prior to the 
practice cycle, and replaced with an equivalent container having an 
inactive catalyst support.
    (2) Petroleum-fueled and methanol-fueled diesel engines. Either a 
chassis-type or a facility-type exhaust system or both systems 
simultaneously may be used. If the engine is equipped with an exhaust 
aftertreatment device, the exhaust pipe must be the same diameter as 
found in-use for at least 4 pipe diameters upstream to the inlet of the 
beginning of the expansion section containing the aftertreatment device. 
The exhaust backpressure or restriction shall follow the same criteria 
as in Sec. 86.1330-90(f) and may be set with a valve (muffler omitted). 
The catalyst container may be removed during all test sequences prior to 
the practice cycle, and replaced with an equivalent container having an 
inactive catalyst support.
    (i) The engine exhaust system shall meet the following requirements:
    (A) The total length of the tubing from the exit of the engine 
exhaust manifold, turbocharger outlet or aftertreatment device to the 
primary dilution tunnel shall not exceed 32 feet (9.8 m).
    (B) The initial portion of the exhaust system may consist of a 
typical in-use (i.e., length, diameter, material, etc.) chassis-type 
exhaust system.
    (C) The distance from the exhaust manifold flange(s) or turbocharger 
outlet to any exhaust aftertreatment device shall be the same as in the 
vehicle configuration or within the distance specifications provided by 
the manufacturer.
    (D) For engines which are not equipped with exhaust aftertreatment 
devices, all tubing in excess of 12 feet (3.7 m) from the exit of the 
turbocharger or exhaust manifold shall be insulated. For engines 
equipped with exhaust aftertreatment devices, all tubing after the 
aftertreatment device which is in excess of 12 feet (3.7 m) shall be 
insulated.
    (E) If the tubing is required to be insulated, the radial thickness 
of the insulation must be at least 1.0 inch (25 mm). The thermal 
conductivity of the insulating material must have a value no greater 
than 0.75 BTU-in/hr/ft\2\/ deg.F (0.065 W/m-K) measured at 700  deg.F 
(371  deg.C).

[[Page 877]]

    (F) A smoke meter or other instrumentation may be inserted into the 
exhaust system tubing. If this option is exercised in the insulated 
portion of the tubing, then a minimal amount of tubing not to exceed 18 
inches may be left uninsulated. However, no more than 12 feet (3.66 m) 
of tubing can be left uninsulated in total, including the length at the 
smoke meter.
    (ii) The facility-type exhaust system shall meet the following 
requirements:
    (A) It must be composed of smooth tubing made of typical in-use 
steel or stainless steel. This tubing shall have a maximum inside 
diameter of 6.0 in (15 cm).
    (B) Short sections (altogether not to exceed 20 percent of the 
entire tube length) of flexible tubing at connection points are allowed.

Sec. 86.1327-94  Engine dynamometer test procedures; overview.

    (a) The engine dynamometer test procedure is designed to determine 
the brake specific emissions of hydrocarbons, nonmethane hydrocarbons 
(for natural gas-fueled engines only), carbon monoxide, oxides of 
nitrogen, particulate (petroleum-fueled, natural gas-fueled, liquefied 
petroleum gas-fueled and methanol-fueled diesel engines), and methanol 
and formaldehyde (for methanol-fueled diesel engines). The test 
procedure consists of a ``cold'' start test following either natural or 
forced cool-down periods described in Secs. 86.1334 and 86.1335, 
respectively. A ``hot'' start test follows the ``cold'' start test after 
a hot soak of 20 minutes. The idle test of subpart P may be run after 
the ``hot'' start test. The exhaust emissions are diluted with ambient 
air and a continuous proportional sample is collected for analysis 
during both the cold- and hot-start tests. The composite samples 
collected are analyzed either in bags or continuously for hydrocarbons 
(HC), methane (CH4--for natural gas-fueled engines only), 
carbon monoxide (CO), carbon dioxide (CO2), and oxides of 
nitrogen (NOX), or in sample collection impingers for 
methanol (CH3OH) and sample collection impingers (or 
capsules) for formaldehyde (HCHO). Measurement of CH3OH and 
HCHO may be omitted for 1990 through 1994 model year methanol-fueled 
engines when a FID calibrated on methanol is used. A bag or continuous 
sample of the dilution air is similarly analyzed for background levels 
of hydrocarbon, methane, carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide and oxides of 
nitrogen and, if appropriate, methanol and formaldehyde. In addition, 
for petroleum-fueled, natural gas-fueled, liquefied petroleum gas-fueled 
and methanol-fueled diesel engines, particulates are collected on 
fluorocarbon-coated glass fiber filters or fluorocarbon-based (membrane) 
filters, and the dilution air may be prefiltered.
    (b) Engine torque and rpm command set points shall be issued at 5 
(10 Hz recommended) Hz or greater during both the cold and hot start 
tests. Feedback engine torque and rpm shall be recorded at least once 
every second during the test.
    (c) Using the torque and rpm feedback signals the brake horsepower 
is integrated with respect to time for the cold and hot cycles. This 
produces a brake horsepower-hour value that enables the brake-specific 
emissions to be determined (see Sec. 86.1342, Calculations, gaseous 
exhaust emissions; and Sec. 86.1343, Calculations, particulate exhaust 
emissions).
    (d)(1) When an engine is tested for exhaust emissions or is operated 
for service accumulation on an engine dynamometer, the complete engine 
shall be tested, with all emission control devices installed and 
functioning.
    (2) Evaporative emission controls need not be connected if data are 
provided to show that normal operating conditions are maintained in the

typical of the in-use application.

    (e) Means of engine cooling which will maintain the engine operating

[[Page 878]]

temperatures (e.g., temperatures of intake air, oil, water, etc.) at 
approximately the same temperature as specified by the manufacturer 
shall be used. Auxiliary fan(s) may be used to maintain engine cooling

Sec. 86.1327-96  Engine dynamometer test procedures; overview.

    (a) The engine dynamometer test procedure is designed to determine 
the brake specific emissions of hydrocarbons, nonmethane hydrocarbons, 
carbon monoxide, oxides of nitrogen,

[[Page 879]]

particulate, methanol and formaldehyde, as applicable. The test 
procedure consists of a ``cold'' start test following either natural or 
forced cool-down periods described in Secs. 86.1334 and 86.1335, 
respectively. A ``hot'' start test follows the ``cold'' start test after 
a hot soak of 20 minutes. The idle test of subpart P of this part may be 
run after the ``hot'' start test. The exhaust emissions are diluted with 
ambient air and a continuous proportional sample is collected for 
analysis during both the cold- and hot-start tests. The composite 
samples collected are analyzed either in bags or continuously for 
hydrocarbons (HC), methane (CH4) carbon monoxide (CO), carbon 
dioxide (CO2), and oxides of nitrogen (NOX), or in 
sample collection impingers for methanol (CH3OH) and sample 
collection impingers (or cartridges) for formaldehyde (HCHO), as 
applicable. Measurement of CH3OH and HCHO may be omitted for 
1990 through 1994 model year methanol-fueled engines when a FID 
calibrated on methanol is used. A bag or continuous sample of the 
dilution air is similarly analyzed for background levels of hydrocarbon, 
carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, and oxides of nitrogen and, if 
appropriate, methane and/or methanol and/or formaldehyde. In addition, 
for diesel-cycle engines, particulates are collected on fluorocarbon-
coated glass fiber filters or fluorocarbon-based (membrane) filters, and 
the dilution air may be prefiltered.
    (b) Engine torque and rpm command set points shall be issued at 5 
(10 Hz recommended) Hz or greater during both the cold and hot start 
tests. Feedback engine torque and rpm shall be recorded at least once 
every second during the test.
    (c) Using the torque and rpm feedback signals, integrate the brake 
horsepower with respect to time for the cold and hot cycles. This 
produces a brake horsepower-hour value that enables the brake-specific 
emissions to be determined (see Secs. 86.1342 and 86.1343).
    (d)(1) When an engine is tested for exhaust emissions or is operated 
for service accumulation on an engine dynamometer, the complete engine 
shall be tested, with all emission control devices installed and 
functioning.
    (2) For gasoline- and methanol-fueled engines, evaporative emission 
canisters must be loaded with fuel vapors and connected to the engine. 
The canisters used for testing must be of the same design as those used 
in engine applications.
    (3) On air-cooled engines, the fan shall be installed.
    (4) Additional accessories (e.g., oil cooler, alternators, air 
compressors, etc.) may be installed or their loading simulated if 
typical of the in-use application.
    (5) The engine may be equipped with a production-type starter.
    (e) Means of engine cooling that will maintain the engine operating 
temperatures (e.g., temperatures of intake air, oil, water, etc.) at 
approximately the same temperature as specified by the manufacturer 
shall be used. An auxiliary fan(s) may be used to maintain engine 
cooling during operation on the dynamometer. Rust inhibitors and 
lubrication additives may be used, up to the levels recommended by the 
additive manufacturer. Antifreeze mixtures and other coolants typical of 
those approved for use by the manufacturer may be used.
    (f) Exhaust system.  The exhaust system term shall meet the 
following requirements:
    (1) Gasoline-fueled and methanol-fueled Otto-cycle engines. A 
chassis-type exhaust system shall be used. For all catalyst systems, the 
distance from the exhaust manifold flange(s) to the catalyst shall be 
the same as in the vehicle configuration unless the manufacturer 
provides data showing equivalent performance at another location. The 
catalyst container may be removed during all test sequences prior to the 
practice cycle, and replaced with an equivalent container having an 
inactive catalyst support.
    (2) Petroleum-fueled and methanol-fueled diesel engines. Either a 
chassis-type or a facility-type exhaust system or both systems 
simultaneously may be used. If the engine is equipped with an exhaust 
aftertreatment device, the exhaust pipe must be the same diameter as 
found in-use for at least 4 pipe diameters upstream to the inlet of the 
beginning of the expansion section containing the aftertreatment device. 
The

[[Page 880]]

exhaust backpressure or restriction shall follow the same criteria as in 
Sec. 86.1330-90(f) and may be set with a valve (muffler omitted). The 
catalyst container may be removed during all test sequences prior to the 
practice cycle, and replaced with an equivalent container having an 
inactive catalyst support.
    (i) The engine exhaust systems shall meet the following 
requirements:
    (A) The total length of the tubing from the exit of the engine 
exhaust manifold, turbocharger outlet or aftertreatment device to the 
primary dilution tunnel shall not exceed 32 feet (9.8 m).
    (B) The initial portion of the exhaust system may consist of a 
typical in-use (i.e., length, diameter, material, etc.) chassis-type 
exhaust system.
    (C) The distance from the exhaust manifold flange(s) or turbocharger 
outlet to any exhaust aftertreatment device shall be the same as in the 
vehicle configuration or within the distance specifications provided by 
the manufacturer.
    (D) For engines which are not equipped with exhaust aftertreatment 
devices, all tubing in excess of 12 feet (3.7 m) from the exit of the 
turbocharger or exhaust manifold shall be insulated. For engines 
equipped with exhaust aftertreatment devices, all tubing after the 
aftertreatment device which is in excess of 12 feet (3.7 m) shall be 
insulated.
    (E) If the tubing is required to be insulated, the radial thickness 
of the insulation must be at least 1.0 inch (25 mm). The thermal 
conductivity of the insulating material must have a value no greater 
than 0.75 BTU-in/hr/ft2/ deg.F (0.065 W/m-K) measured at 700 
deg.F (371  deg.C).
    (F) A smoke meter or other instrumentation may be inserted into the 
exhaust system tubing. If this option is exercised in the insulated 
portion of the tubing, then a minimal amount of tubing not to exceed 18 
inches may be left uninsulated. However, no more than 12 feet (3.66 m) 
of tubing can be left uninsulated in total, including the length at the 
smoke meter.
    (ii) The facility-type exhaust system shall meet the following 
requirements:
    (A) It must be composed of smooth tubing made of typical in-use 
steel or stainless steel. This tubing shall have a maximum inside 
diameter of 6.0 in (15 cm).
    (B) Short sections (altogether not to exceed 20 percent of the 
entire tube length) of flexible tubing at connection points are allowed.

Sec. 86.1332-90  Engine mapping procedures.

    (a) Mount test engine on the engine dynamometer.
    (b) Determine minimum mapping speed. The minimum speed is defined as 
the warm engine curb idle rpm.
    (c) Determine maximum mapping speed per the following methodologies. 
(Note paragraph (d)(1) below.)
    (1) Otto-cycle engines. (i) For ungoverned engines using the 
transient operating cycle set forth in paragraph (f)(1) of appendix I to 
this part, the maximum mapping speed shall be no less than that 
calculated from the following equation:
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR06OC93.213


or when a 3.0 percent drop in maximum horsepower occurs, whichever of 
the two is greater
    (ii) For ungoverned engines using the transient operating cycle set 
forth in paragraph (f)(3) of appendix I to this part, the maximum 
mapping shall be no less than that calculated from the following 
equation:
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR06OC93.214


or when a 3.0 percent drop in maximum horsepower occurs, whichever of 
the two is greater
    (iii) For governed engines the maximum mapped speed shall be no less 
than either that speed at which the wide-open throttle torque drops off 
to zero, or the maximum speed as calculated for ungoverned engines 
(paragraph (c)(1)(i) of this section)
    (2) Diesel engines. (i) For ungoverned engines, the maximum mapping 
speed shall be no less than that calculated from the following equation:

[[Page 884]]

[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR06OC93.215



or when a 3.0 drop in horsepower occurs, whichever of the two is greater
    (ii) For governed engines, the maximum mapping speed shall be no 
less than either that speed at which wide-open throttle torque drops off 
to zero, or the maximum speed as calculated for ungoverned engines 
(paragraph (c)(2)(i) of this section).
    (d) Perform an engine power map.
    (1) During engine preparation or warm-up, the engine may be operated 
such that a preliminary estimate of measured rated rpm can be made.
    (2) Otto-cycle engines. (i) For a cold engine, start the engine and 
operate at zero load in accordance with the manufacturer's start-up and 
warm-up procedures for 1 minute 30 seconds.
    (ii) Operate the engine at a torque equivalent to 103 
percent of the most recent determination of maximum torque for 4 minutes 
30 seconds at 2000 rpm.
    (iii) Operate the engine at a torque equivalent to 555 
percent of the most recent determination of maximum torque for 35 
minutes 1 minute at 2000 rpm.
    (iv) Operate the engine at idle (minimum speed).
    (v) Open the throttle fully.
    (vi) While maintaining wide-open throttle and full-load, maintain 
minimum engine speed for at least 15 seconds. Record the average torque 
during the last 5 seconds.
    (vii) In no greater than 10020 rpm increments, determine 
the maximum torque curve from minimum speed to maximum speed. Hold each 
test point for 15 seconds, and record the average torque over the last 5 
seconds.
    (viii) Alternate mappinq technique. In place of paragraphs (d)(2) 
(vi) and (vii) of this section, a continual sweep of rpm is allowed. 
While operating at wide-open throttle, the engine speed is increased at 
an average rate of 8 rpm/sec (1 rpm/sec) from minimum speed 
to maximum speed. Speed and torque points shall be recorded at a sample 
rate of at least one point per second.
    (ix) Recalculate the maximum speed per paragraph (c)(1) (i) or (ii) 
of this section using the measured rated speed derived from the new 
maximum torque curve. If the new maximum speed lies outside the range of 
speeds encompassed by the actual map, then the map shall be considered 
void, and another map will need to be run using the newly derived 
measured rated speed in all calculations.
    (x) For warm engines, the entire warm-up procedure specified in 
paragraphs (d)(2) (i) through (iii) of this section need not be 
repeated. It is sufficient for an engine already at normal operating 
temperatures to be operated at the conditions specified in paragraph 
(d)(2)(iii) of this section until oil and water temperatures are 
stabilized, after which the procedures of paragraph (d)(2) (iv) through 
(vii) of this section may be performed. The oil and water temperatures 
are defined as stabilized if they are maintained within 2 percent of 
point for 2 minutes.
    (3) Diesel engines. (i) If the engine is cold, start and operate at 
free idle for 2 to 3 minutes.
    (ii) Operate the engine at approximately 50 percent power at the 
peak torque speed for 5 to 7 minutes.
    (iii) Operate the engine at rated speed and wide-open throttle for 
25 to 30 minutes.
    (iv) Option. The engine may be pre-conditioned by operating at rated 
speed and maximum horsepower until the oil and water temperatures are 
stabilized. The temperatures are defined as stabilized if they are 
maintained within 2 percent of point for 2 minutes. This optional 
procedure may be substituted for paragraph (d)(3)(iii) of this section.
    (v) Unload the engine and operate at the curb idle speed.
    (vi) Operate the engine at wide open throttle and minimum engine 
speed. Increase the engine speed at an average rate of 8 rpm/sec 
(1 rpm/sec) from minimum to maximum speed. Engine speed and 
torque points shall be recorded at a sample rate of at least one point 
per second.

[[Page 885]]

    (vii) Recalculate the maximum speed per paragraph (c)(2) (i) or (ii) 
of this section using the measured rated speed derived from the new 
maximum torque curve. If the new maximum speed lies outside the range of 
speeds encompassed by the actual map, then the map shall be considered 
void. The entire mapping procedure shall be repeated, using the newly 
derived measured rated speed in all calculations.
    (viii) For warm engines, the entire warm-up procedure specified in 
paragraphs (d)(3) (i) through (iv) of this section need not be repeated. 
It is sufficient for an engine already at normal operating temperatures 
to be operated per the requirements of paragraph (d)(3)(iv) of this 
section, after which the procedures of paragraph (d)(3) (v) through (vi) 
of this section may be performed.
    (e) Mapping curve generation.
    (1) Otto-cycle engines. (i) Fit all data points recorded under 
paragraphs (d)(2) (vi) and (vii) of this section (100 rpm increments) 
with a cubic spline, Akima, or other technique approved in advance by 
the Administrator. The resultant curve shall be accurate to within 
1.0 ft-lbs of all recorded engine torques.
    (ii) All points generated under the continuous rpm sweep by 
paragraphs (d)(2) (vi) and (viii) of this section shall be connected by 
linear interpolation between points.
    (iii) For governed engines, all points above the maximum speed (see 
paragraph (c)(1)(ii) of this section) shall be assigned maximum torque 
values of zero for purposes of cycle generation.
    (iv) For all engines, all speed points below the minimum speed shall 
be assigned a maximum torque value equal to that observed at minimum 
speed for purposes of cycle generation.
    (v) The torque curve resulting from paragraphs (e)(1) (i) through 
(iv) of this section is the mapping curve and will be used to convert 
the normalized torque values in the engine cycle (see paragraph (f)(1) 
of appendix I to this part) to actual torque values for the test cycle.
    (2) Diesel engines. (i) Connect all data points recorded under 
paragraph (d)(3)(vi) of this section using linear interpolation between 
points.
    (ii) For governed engines, all points above the maximum speed (see 
paragraph (c)(2)(ii) of this section) shall be assigned maximum torque 
values of zero for purposes of cycle generation.
    (iii) For all engines, all speed points below the minimum speed 
shall be assigned a maximum torque value equal to that observed at the 
minimum speed for purposes of cycle generation.
    (iv) The torque curve resulting from paragraphs (e)(2) (i) through 
(iii) of this section is the mapping curve and will be used to convert 
the normalized torque values in the engine cycle (see paragraph (f)(2) 
of appendix I to this part) into actual torque values for the test 
cycle.
    (f) Alternate mapping. If a manufacturer believes that the above 
mapping techniques are unsafe or unrepresentative for any given engine 
or engine family, alternate mapping techniques may be used. These 
alternate techniques must satisfy the intent of the specified mapping 
procedures to determine the maximum available torque at all engine 
speeds achieved during the test cycles. Deviations from the mapping 
techniques specified in this section for reasons of safety or 
representativeness shall be reported per Sec. 86.1344(e)(6), along with 
the justification for their use. In no case, however, shall descending 
continual sweeps of rpm be used for governed or turbocharged engines.
    (g) Replicate Tests. An engine need not be mapped before each and 
every cold cycle test. An engine shall be remapped prior to a cold cycle 
test if:
    (1) An unreasonable amount of time has transpired since the last 
map, as determined by engineering judgment, or
    (2) The barometric pressure prior to the start of the cold cycle 
test has changed more than 1 in hg. from the average barometric pressure 
observed durinq the map, or
    (3) Physical changes or recalibrations have been made to the engine 
which may potentially affect engine performance.

Sec. 86.1333-90  Transient test cycle generation.

    (a) The heavy-duty transient engine cycles for Otto-cycle and diesel 
engines are listed in appendix I ((f) (1), (2) and (3)) to this part. 
These second-by-second listings represent torque and rpm maneuvers 
characteristic of heavy-duty engines. Both rpm and torque are normalized 
(expressed as a percentage of maximum) in these listings.
    (1) To unnormalize rpm, use the following equation:
    [GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR06OC93.216
    

The method of calculating measured rated rpm is detailed in paragraph 
(g) of this section.
    (2) Torque is normalized to the maximum torque at the rpm listed 
with it. Therefore, to unnormalize the torque values in the cycle, the 
maximum torque curve for the engine in question must be used. The 
generation of the maximum torque curve is described in Sec. 86.1332.
    (3) The EPA Engine Dynamometer Schedule for Heavy Duty Diesel 
Engines listed in appendix I (f)(2) contains torque points referred to 
as ``closed rack motoring.'' For reference cycle calculation torque 
points shall take on unnormalized values determined in either of the 
following three ways:
    (i) Negative 40 percent of the positive torque available at the 
associated speed point. The generation of this positive maximum torque 
curve is described in Sec. 86.1332.
    (ii) Map the amount of negative torque required to motor the engine 
between idle and maximum mapping speed and use this map to determine the 
amount of negative torque required at the associated speed point.
    (iii) Determine the amount of negative torque required to motor the 
engine at idle and rated speeds and linearly interpolate using these two 
points.
    (b) Example of the unnormalization procedure. The following test 
point shall be unnormalized:
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR06OC93.219


Given the following values:
    Measured Rated rpm = 3800.
    Curb Idle rpm = 600.
    (1) Calculate actual rpm:
    [GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR06OC93.217
    
    [GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR06OC93.218
    
    (2) Determine actual torque: Determine the maximum observed torque 
at 1976 rpm from the maximum torque curve. Then multiply this value 
(e.g., 358 ft-lbs) by 0.82. This results in an actual torque of 294 ft-
lbs.
    (c) Engine speed and torque shall be recorded at least once every 
second during the cold start test and hot start test. The torque and rpm 
feedback signals may be filtered.
    (d) Cold start enhancement devices. The zero percent speed specified 
in the engine dynamometer schedules (appendix I (f)(1), (f)(2) or (f)(3) 
to this part) shall be superseded by proper operation of

[[Page 887]]

the engine's automatic cold start enhancement device.
    (1) During automatic cold start enhancement device operation, a 
manual transmission engine shall be allowed to idle at whatever speed is 
required to produce a feedback torque of 0 ft-lbs. 10 ft-
lbs. (using, for example, clutch disengagement, speed to torque control 
switching, software overrides, etc.) at those points in appendix I 
(f)(1), (f)(2), or (f)(3) to this part where both reference speed and 
reference torque are zero percent values.
    (2) During automatic cold start enhancement device operation, an 
automatic transmission engine shall be allowed to idle at whatever speed 
is required to produce a feedback torque of CITT ft-lbs. 10 
ft-lbs. (see paragraph (e)(2) of this section for definition of CITT) at 
those points in appendix I (f)(1), (f)(2), or (f)(3) to this part where 
both reference speed and reference torque are zero percent values.
    (e) Automatic transmissions. The reference cycles in paragraphs (f) 
(1) and (2) of appendix I to this part shall be altered for test engines 
intended primarily for use with automatic transmissions.
    (1) Zero percent speed for automatic transmission engines is defined 
as curb idle rpm (i.e., in-vehicle, coupled with automatic transmission 
in gear).
    (2) All zero-percent speed, zero-percent torque points (idle points) 
shall be modified to zero percent speed, Curb Idle Transmission Torque 
(CITT), except as permitted in Sec. 86.1337-90(a)(9). Also, all points 
with speed equal to or less than zero percent and torque less than CITT 
shall be modified to CITT. Motoring torque shall remain unchanged. In 
order to provide a smooth torque transition, all consecutive torque 
points that are between 0 and CITT shall be changed to CITT if the first 
of these is preceded or the last of these is succeeded by idle points. 
The manufacturer's specified CITT shall be based upon that value 
observed in typical applications at the mean of the manufacturers' 
specified idle speed range at stabilized temperature conditions.
    (f) Clutch operation. Manual transmission engines may be tested with 
a clutch. If used, the clutch shall be disengaged at all zero percent 
speeds, zero percent torque points, but may be engaged up to two points 
preceeding a non-zero point, and may be engaged for time segments with 
zero percent speed and torque points of durations less than four 
seconds. (See Sec. 86.1341 for allowances in the cycle validation 
criteria.)
    (g) Measured rated rpm. The measured rated rpm corresponds to the 
100 percent rpm values specified in the reference cycles (paragraphs (f) 
(1) and (2) of appendix I to this part). It is generally intended to 
represent the rpm at which maximum brake horsepower occurs. For the 
purposes of this test sequence, it shall either be defined as the 
manufacturer's specified rated speed, or calculated in the following 
way, whichever yields the higher speed:
    (1) From the maximum torque curve generated per Sec. 86.1332, find 
the maximum observed brake horsepower of the engine.
    (2) Calculate 98 percent of the observed maximum brake horsepower, 
and determine from the maximum torque curve the highest and lowest 
engine rpms at which this brake horsepower is observed.
    (3) The highest and lowest of the 98 percent power rpms represent 
the endpoints of an rpm range. The midpoint of this range shall be 
considered the measured rated rpm for cycle generation purposes.

Sec. 86.1334-84  Pre-test engine and dynamometer preparation.

    (a) Control system calibration. (1) Before the cold soak or cool 
down, final calibration of the dynamometer and throttle control systems 
may be performed. These calibrations may consist of steady-state 
operations and/or actual practice cycle runs.
    (2) Following any practice runs or calibration procedures, the 
engine shall be cooled per Sec. 86.1335-90.

Sec. 86.1335-90  Cool-down procedure.

    (a) This cool-down procedure applies to Otto-cycle and diesel 
engines.
    (b) Engines may be soaked at ambient conditions. No substances or 
fluids may be applied to the engine's internal or external surfaces 
except for water and air as prescribed in paragraphs (c) and (d) of this 
section.
    (c) For water-cooled engines, two types of cooling are permitted:
    (1) Water may be circulated through the engine's water coolant 
system.
    (i) The coolant may be flowed in either direction and at any desired 
flow rate. The thermostat may be removed or blocked open during the 
cool-down but must be restored before the exhaust emissions test begins.
    (ii) The temperature of the circulated or injected water shall be at 
least 10  deg.C (50  deg.F). In addition, the temperature of the cooling 
water shall not exceed 30  deg.C (86  deg.F) during the last 30 minutes 
of the cool-down.
    (iii) Only water, including the use of a building's standard water 
supply, or the coolant type that is already in the engine (per 
Sec. 86.1327-90(e)) is permitted for cool-down purposes.
    (2) Flows of air may be directed at the exterior of the engine.
    (i) The air shall be directed essentially uniformly over the 
exterior surface of the engine at any desired flow rate.
    (ii) The temperature of the cooling air shall not exceed 86  deg.F 
(30  deg.C) during the last 30 minutes of the cool-down, but may be less 
than 68  deg.F (20  deg.C) at any time.
    (d) For air-cooled engines, only cooling as prescribed in paragraph 
(c)(2) of this section is permitted.
    (e)(1) The cold cycle exhaust emission test may begin after a cool-
down only when the engine oil and water temperatures are stabilized 
between 68  deg.F and 86  deg.F (20  deg.C and 30  deg.C) for a minimum 
of fifteen minutes.
    (i) These temperature measurements are to be made by temperature 
measurement devices immersed in the sump oil and in the thermostat 
housing or cylinder head cooling circuit, the sensor parts of which are 
not in contact with any engine surface.
    (ii) The flow of oil and water shall be shut off during this 
measurement. Air flow, except as necessary to keep the cell temperature 
between 68  deg.F and 86  deg.F (20  deg.C and 30  deg.C), shall be shut 
off. No engine oil change is permitted during the test sequence.
    (2) Direct cooling of engine oil through the use of oil coolers or 
heat exchangers is permitted. The cold cycle emission test may begin 
only when the requirements in paragraph (e)(1)(ii) are met.
    (3) Any other means for the direct cooling of the engine oil must be 
approved in advance by the Administrator.
    (f)(1) The cold cycle exhaust emission test for engines equipped 
with exhaust aftertreatment devices may begin after a cool-down only 
when the aftertreatment device is 77  deg.F 9  deg.F (25 
deg.C 5  deg.C), in addition to the temperature restrictions 
in paragraph (e) of this section. For catalysts, this temperature must 
be measured at the outlet of the catalyst bed.
    (2) Exhaust aftertreatment device cool-down may be accomplished in 
whatever manner and using whatever coolant deemed appropriate by proper 
engineering judgment. The aftertreatment device, engine, and exhaust 
piping configurations shall not be separated, altered, or moved in any 
way during the cool-down.
    (g) For engines with auxiliary emission control devices which are 
temperature dependent, the cold start shall not begin until the 
temperature readings of the auxiliary emission control devices are 
stable at 77  deg.F 9  deg.F (25  deg.C 5 
deg.C).
    (h) At the completion of the cool-down all of the general 
requirements specified in Sec. 86.1330, the oil temperature 
specification set forth in paragraph (e) of this section, and the 
catalyst temperature specifications in paragraph (f) of this section 
must be met before the cold cycle exhaust emission test may begin.
[62 FR 47131, Sept. 5, 1997]



Sec. 86.1336-84  Engine starting, restarting, and shutdown.

    (a) The engine shall be started according to the manufacturer's 
recommended starting procedure in the

[[Page 889]]

owner's manual, using either a production starter motor or the 
dynamometer. The speed at which the engine is cranked (motored) with the 
dynamometer shall be equal to the cranking speed (nominal speed 
plus-minus10 percent) in the vehicle with a fully charged 
battery. The time taken to accelerate the engine to cranking speed by 
the dynamometer shall be equal (nominal plus-minus0.5 
seconds) to the time required with a starter motor. Motoring by the 
dynamometer shall be terminated not more than one second after the 
engine starts. The 24 plus-minus1-second free idle period, 
and declutching if applicable, shall begin when the engine is determined 
to have started.
    (1) Engines equipped with automatic chokes shall be operated 
according to the manufacturer's operating instructions in the owner's 
manual, including choke setting and ``kick-down'' from cold fast idle.
    (2) Engines equipped with manual chokes shall be operated according 
to the manufacturer's operating instructions in the owner's manual.
    (3) The operator may use the choke, throttle, etc. where necessary 
to keep the engine running.
    (4) If the manufacturer's operating instructions in the owner's 
manual do not specify a warm engine starting procedure, the engine 
(automatic and manual choke engines) shall be started by depressing the 
throttle half way and cranking the engine until it starts.
    (b)(1) If the engine does not start after 15 seconds of cranking, 
cranking shall cease and the reason for failure to start shall be 
determined. The gas flow measuring device (or revolution counter) on the 
constant volume sampler (and the hydrocarbon integrator when testing 
diesel-fueled engines) shall be turned off during this diagnostic 
period. In addition, either the CVS should be turned off or the exhaust 
tube disconnected from the tailpipe during the diagnostic period. If 
failure to start is an operational error, the engine shall be 
rescheduled for testing from a cold start.
    (2) If longer cranking times are necessary and recommended to the 
ultimate purchaser, such cranking times may be used in lieu of the 15-
second limit, provided the owner's manual and the service repair manual 
indicate that the longer cranking times are normal.
    (3) If a failure to start occurs during the cold portion of the test 
and is caused by an engine malfunction, corrective action of less than 
30 minutes duration may be taken (according to Sec. 86.084-25), and the 
test continued. The sampling system shall be reactivated at the same 
time cranking begins. When the engine starts, the timing sequence shall 
begin. If failure to start is caused by engine malfunction and the 
engine cannot be started, the test shall be voided and corrective action 
may be taken according to Sec. 86.084-25.
    (4) If a failure to start occurs during the hot start portion of the 
test and is caused by engine malfunction, the engine must be started 
within one minute of key on. The sampling system shall be reactivated at 
the same time cranking begins. When the engine starts, the transient 
engine cycle timing sequence shall begin. If the engine cannot be 
started within one minute of key on, the test shall be voided, 
corrective action taken (according to Sec. 86.084-25), and the engine 
rescheduled for testing.
    (c) Engine stalling. (1) If the engine stalls during the initial 
idle period of either the cold or hot start test, the engine shall be 
restarted immediately using the appropriate cold or hot starting 
procedure and the test continued.
    (2) If the engine stalls anywhere in the cold cycle, except in the 
initial idle period, the test shall be voided.
    (3) If the engine stalls on the hot cycle portion of the test at any 
time other than the initial idle, the engine may be shut off and 
resoaked for 20 minutes. The hot cycle may then be rerun. Only one hot 
start resoak and restart is permitted.
    (d) Engine shutdown. Engine shutdown shall be performed in 
accordance with manufacturer's specifications.
    (e) Test equipment malfunction--(1) Gasoline- and methanol-fueled 
engines. If a malfunction occurs in any of the required test equipment 
during the test run, the test shall be voided.
    (2) Diesel-fueled, natural gas-fueled and liquefied petroleum gas-
fueled engines. (i) If a malfunction occurs in any of the required test 
equipment during the cold cycle portion of the test, the test shall be 
voided.

[[Page 890]]

    (ii) If a malfunction occurs in any of the required test equipment 
(computer, gaseous emissions analyzer, etc.) during the hot cycle 
portion of the test, complete the full engine cycle before engine shut-
down then resoak for 20 minutes.
    (A) If the test equipment malfunction can be corrected before the 
resoak period has been completed, the hot cycle portion of the test may 
be rerun.
    (B)(1) If the test equipment malfunction is corrected after the 
completion of the resoak period, then the preconditioning cycle must be 
run before the hot cycle. This consists of a full 20 minute transient 
cycle followed by a 20 minute soak and then the for-record hot cycle.
    (2) In no case can the start of the cold cycle and the start of the 
hot cycle be separated by more than 4 hours.

Sec. 86.1337-90  Engine dynamometer test run.

    (a) The following steps shall be taken for each test:
    (1) Prepare the engine, dynamometer, and sampling system for the 
cold-start test. Change filters, etc., and leak check as necessary.

    Note:  For a single dilution particulate system, a propane check 
will not reveal a pressure side leak (that portion of the system 
downstream of the pump) since the volume concentration in ppm will not 
change if a portion of the sample is lost. A separate leak check is 
needed.
    A leak check of a filter assembly that has only one seal ring in 
contact with the filter media will not detect a leak when tested under 
vacuum. A pressure leak test should be performed.

    (2) Connect evacuated sample collection bags to the dilute exhaust 
and dilution air sample collection systems.
    (3) For methanol-fueled vehicles, install fresh methanol and 
formaldehyde impingers (or cartridges) in the exhaust and dilution air 
sample systems for methanol and formaldehyde. A single dilution air 
sample covering the total test period may be utilized for methanol and 
formaldehyde background. (Background measurements of methanol and 
formaldehyde may be omitted and concentrations assumed to be zero for 
calculations in Sec. 86.1344.)
    (4) Attach the CVS to the engine exhaust system any time prior to 
starting the CVS.
    (5) Start the CVS (if not already on), the sample pumps (except for 
the particulate sample pump(s), if applicable), the engine cooling 
fan(s), and the data collection system. The heat exchanger of the 
constant volume sampler (if used), and the heated components of any 
continuous sampling system(s) (if applicable) shall be preheated to 
their designated operating temperatures before the test begins. (See 
Sec. 86.1340(e) for continuous sampling procedures.)
    (6) Adjust the sample flow rates to the desired flow rates and set 
the CVS gas flow measuring devices to zero.

    Note:  CFV-CVS sample flow rate is fixed by the venturi design.

    (7) For diesel engines tested for particulate emissions, carefully 
install a clean particulate sample filter into each of the filter 
holders and install the assembled filter holders in the sample flow line 
(filter holders may be preassembled).
    (8) Follow the manufacturers choke and throttle instructions for 
cold starting. Simultaneously start the engine and begin exhaust and 
dilution air sampling. For petroleum-fueled diesel engines (and natural 
gas-fueled, liquified petroleum gas-fueled or methanol-fueled diesels, 
if used), turn on the hydrocarbon and NOX (and CO and 
CO2, if continuous) analyzer system integrators (if used), 
and turn on the particulate sample pumps and indicate the start of the 
test on the data collection medium.
    (9) As soon as it is determined that the engine is started, start a 
``free idle'' timer. Allow the engine to idle freely with no-load for 24 
1 seconds. This idle period for automatic transmission 
engines may be interpreted as an idle speed in neutral or park. All 
other idle conditions shall be interpreted as an idle speed in gear. It 
is permissible to lug the engine down to

[[Page 891]]

curb idle speed during the last 8 seconds of the free idle period for 
the purpose of engaging dynamometer control loops.
    (10) Begin the transient engine cycles such that the first non-idle 
record of the cycle occurs at 251 seconds. The free idle 
time is included in the 251 seconds.
    (i) During diesel particulate sampling it must be demonstrated that 
the ratio of main tunnel flow to particulate sample flow does not change 
by more than 5.0 percent of its set point value (except for 
the first 10 seconds of sampling).


    Note:  For double dilution operation, sample flow is the net 
difference between the flow rate through the sample filters and the 
secondary dilution air flow rate.


    (ii) Record the average temperature and pressure at the gas meter(s) 
or flow instrumentation inlet, where needed to calculate flow. If the 
set flow rate cannot be maintained because of high particulate loading 
on the filter, the test shall be terminated. The test shall be rerun 
using a lower flow rate and/or a larger diameter filter.
    (11) Begin the transient engine cycles such that the first non-idle 
record of the cycle occurs at 25 1 seconds. The free idle 
time is included in the 25 1 seconds.
    (12) On the last record of the cycle, cease sampling. Immediately 
turn the engine off, and start a hot-soak timer. Also turn off the 
particulate sample pumps, the gas flow measuring device(s) and any 
continuous analyzer system integrators and indicate the end of the test 
on the data collection medium. Sampling systems should continue to 
sample after the end of the test cycle until system response times have 
elapsed.
    (13) Immediately after the engine is turned off, turn off the engine 
cooling fan(s) if used, and the CVS blower (or disconnect the exhaust 
system from the CVS). As soon as possible, transfer the ``cold start 
cycle'' exhaust and dilution air bag samples to the analytical system 
and process the samples according to Sec. 86.1340. A stabilized reading 
of the exhaust sample on all analyzers shall be obtained within 20 
minutes of the end of the sample collection phase of the test. Analysis 
of the methanol and formaldehyde samples shall be obtained within 24 
hours of the end of the sample collection period. For petroleum-fueled 
and methanol-fueled diesel engines, carefully remove the filter holder 
from the sample flow apparatus, and remove each particulate sample 
filter from its holder and invert the secondary filter and place it 
stain side to stain side on top of the primary filter. Place the filter 
pair in a petri dish and cover.
    (14) Allow the engine to soak for 201 minutes.
    (15) Prepare the engine and dynamometer for the hot start test.
    (16) Connect evacuated sample collection bags to the dilute exhaust 
and dilution air sample collection systems.
    (17) Install fresh methanol and formaldehyde impingers (or capsules) 
in the exhaust and dilution air sample systems for methanol and 
formaldehyde.
    (18) Start the CVS (if not already on) or connect the exhaust system 
to the CVS (if disconnected). Start the sample pumps (except the 
particulate sample pump(s), if applicable), the engine cooling fan(s) 
and the data collection system. The heat exchanger of the constant 
volume sampler (if used) and the heated components of any continuous 
sampling system(s) (if applicable) shall be preheated to their 
designated operating temperatures before the test begins. See 
Sec. 86.1340(e) for continuous sampling procedures.
    (19) Adjust the sample flow rates to the desired flow rate and set 
the CVS gas flow measuring devices to zero.
    (20) For diesel engines tested for particulate, carefully install a 
clean particulate filter in each of the filter holders and install 
assembled filter holders in the sample flow line (filter holders may be 
preassembled).
    (21) Follow the manufacturer's choke and throttle instruction for 
hot starting. Simultaneously start the engine and begin exhaust and 
dilution air sampling. For diesel engines, turn on the hydrocarbon and 
NOX (and CO and CO2, if continuous) analyzer 
system integrators (if used), indicate the start of the test on the data 
collection medium, and turn on the particulate sample pump(s).

[[Page 892]]

    (22) As soon as it is determined that the engine is started, start a 
``free idle'' timer.
    (23) Allow the engine to idle freely with no-load for 24 
1 seconds. The provisions and interpretations of paragraph 
(a)(9) of this section apply.
    (24) Begin the transient-engine cycle such that the first non-idle 
record of the cycle occurs at 251 seconds. The free idle is 
included in the 251 seconds.
    (25) On the last record of the cycle, allow sampling system response 
times to elapse and cease sampling. Turn off the particulate sample 
pump(s) (if appropriate), the gas flow measuring device(s) and any 
continuous analyzer system integrators and indicate the end of the test 
on the data collection medium.
    (26) As soon as possible, transfer the ``hot start cycle'' exhaust 
and dilution air bag samples to the analytical system and process the 
samples according to Sec. 86.1340. A stabilized reading of the exhaust 
sample on all analyzers shall be obtained within 20 minutes of the end 
of the sample collection phase of the test. Analyze the methanol and 
formaldehyde samples within 24 hours. (If it is not possible to perform 
analysis within 24 hours, the samples should be stored in a cold 
(approximately 0  deg.C) dark environment until analysis can be 
performed). For petroleum-fueled and methanol-fueled diesel engines, 
carefully remove the assembled filter holder from the sample flow lines 
and remove each particulate sample filter from its holder and invert the 
secondary filter and place it stain side to stain side on top of the 
primary filter. Place the filter pairs in a clean petri dish and cover 
as soon as possible. Within 1 hour after the end of the hot start phase 
of the test, transfer the particulate filters to the weighing chamber 
for post-test conditioning.
    (27) The CVS and the engine may be turned off, if desired.
    (b) The procedure in paragraph (a) of this section is designed for 
one sample bag for the cold start portion and one for the hot start 
portion. It is also permissible to use more than one sample bag per test 
portion.
    (c) If a dynamometer test run is determined to be void, corrective 
action may be taken. The engine may then be allowed to cool (naturally 
or forced) and the dynamometer test rerun per paragraph (a) or (b) of 
this section.

    (a) The following steps shall be taken for each test:
    (1) Prepare for the cold-start test. (i) For gasoline- and methanol-
fueled engines only, evaporative emission canisters shall be prepared 
for use in this testing in accordance with the procedures specified in 
Sec. 86.1232-96 (h) or (j). The size of the canisters used for testing 
shall correspond with the largest canister capacity expected in the 
range of vehicle applications for each engine. The Administrator may, at 
his discretion, use a smaller canister capacity. Attach the evaporative 
emission canister(s) to the engine, using the canister purge plumbing 
and controls employed in vehicle applications of the engine being 
tested. Plug the canister port that is normally connected to the fuel 
tank.
    (ii) Prepare the engine, dynamometer, and sampling system.
    (iii) Change filters, etc., and leak check as necessary. For a 
single dilution particulate system, a propane check will not reveal a 
pressure side leak (that portion of the system downstream of the pump) 
since the volume concentration in ppm will not change if a portion of 
the sample is lost. A separate leak check is needed. A leak check of a 
filter assembly that has only one seal ring in contact with the filter 
media will not detect a leak when tested under vacuum. A pressure leak 
test should be performed.
    (2) Connect evacuated sample collection bags to the dilute exhaust 
and dilution air sample collection systems.
    (3) For methanol-fueled vehicles, install fresh methanol and 
formaldehyde impingers (or cartridges) in the exhaust and dilution air 
sample systems for methanol and formaldehyde. A single dilution air 
sample covering the total test period may be utilized for methanol and 
formaldehyde background. (Background measurements of methanol and 
formaldehyde may be

[[Page 893]]

omitted and concentrations assumed to be zero for calculations in 
Sec. 86.1344.)
    (4) Attach the CVS to the engine exhaust system any time prior to 
starting the CVS.
    (5) Start the CVS (if not already on), the sample pumps (except for 
the particulate sample pump(s), if applicable), the engine cooling 
fan(s), and the data collection system. The heat exchanger of the 
constant volume sampler (if used), and the heated components of any 
continuous sampling system(s) (if applicable) shall be preheated to 
their designated operating temperatures before the test begins. (See 
Sec. 86.1340(e) for continuous sampling procedures.)
    (6) Adjust the sample flow rates to the desired flow rates and set 
the CVS gas flow measuring devices to zero. CFV-CVS sample flow rate is 
fixed by the venturi design.
    (7) For diesel engines tested for particulate emissions, carefully 
install a clean particulate sample filter into each of the filter 
holders and install the assembled filter holders in the sample flow line 
(filter holders may be preassembled).
    (8) Follow the manufacturer's choke and throttle instructions for 
cold starting. Simultaneously start the engine and begin exhaust and 
dilution air sampling. For petroleum-fueled diesel engines (and natural 
gas-fueled, liquified petroleum gas-fueled or methanol-fueled diesels, 
if used) turn on the hydrocarbon and NOX (and CO and 
CO2, if continuous) analyzer system integrators (if used), 
and turn on the particulate sample pumps and indicate the start of the 
test on the data collection medium.
    (9) As soon as it is determined that the engine is started, start a 
``free idle'' timer. Allow the engine to idle freely with no-load for 
241 seconds. This idle period for automatic transmission 
engines may be interpreted as an idle speed in neutral or park. All 
other idle conditions shall be interpreted as an idle speed in gear. It 
is permissible to lug the engine down to curb idle speed during the last 
8 seconds of the free idle period for the purpose of engaging 
dynamometer control loops.
    (10) Begin the transient engine cycles such that the first non-idle 
record of the cycle occurs at 251 seconds. The free idle 
time is included in the 251 seconds.
    (i) During diesel particulate sampling it must be demonstrated that 
the ratio of main tunnel flow to particulate sample flow does not change 
by more than 5.0 percent of its set point value (except for 
the first 10 seconds of sampling). For double dilution operation, sample 
flow is the net difference between the flow rate through the sample 
filters and the secondary dilution air flow rate.
    (ii) Record the average temperature and pressure at the gas meter(s) 
or flow instrumentation inlet, where needed to calculate flow. If the 
set flow rate cannot be maintained because of high particulate loading 
on the filter, the test shall be terminated. The test shall be rerun 
using a lower flow rate and/or a larger diameter filter.
    (11) Begin the transient engine cycles such that the first non-idle 
record of the cycle occurs at 251 seconds. The free idle 
time is included in the 251 seconds.
    (12) On the last record of the cycle, cease sampling. Immediately 
turn the engine off and start a hot-soak timer. Also turn off the 
particulate sample pumps, the gas flow measuring device(s) and any 
continuous analyzer system integrator and indicate the end of the test 
on the data collection medium. Sampling systems should continue to 
sample after the end of the test cycle until system response times have 
elapsed.
    (13) Immediately after the engine is turned off, turn off the engine 
cooling fan(s) if used, and the CVS blower (or disconnect the exhaust 
system from the CVS). As soon as possible, transfer the ``cold start 
cycle'' exhaust and dilution air bag samples to the analytical system 
and process the samples according to Sec. 86.1340. A stabilized reading 
of the exhaust sample on all analyzers shall be obtained within 20 
minutes of the end of the sample collection phase of the test. Analysis 
of the methanol and formaldehyde samples shall be obtained within 24 
hours of the end of the sample collection period. For petroleum-fueled 
and methanol-fueled diesel engines, carefully remove the filter holder 
from the sample flow apparatus,

[[Page 894]]

remove each particulate sample filter from its holder and invert the 
secondary filter and place it stain side to stain side on top of the 
primary filter. Place the filter pair in a petri dish and cover.
    (14) Allow the engine to soak for 201 minutes.
    (15) Prepare the engine and dynamometer for the hot start test.
    (16) Connect evacuated sample collection bags to the dilute exhaust 
and dilution air sample collection systems.
    (17) Install fresh methanol and formaldehyde impingers (or capsules) 
in the exhaust and dilution air sample systems for methanol and 
formaldehyde.
    (18) Start the CVS (if not already on) or connect the exhaust system 
to the CVS (if disconnected). Start the sample pumps (except the 
particulate sample pump(s), if applicable), the engine cooling fan(s) 
and the data collection system. The heat exchanger of the constant 
volume sampler (if used) and the heated components of any continuous 
sampling system(s) (if applicable) shall be preheated to their 
designated operating temperatures before the test begins. See 
Sec. 86.1340(e) for continuous sampling procedures.
    (19) Adjust the sample flow rates to the desired flow rate and set 
the CVS gas flow measuring devices to zero.
    (20) For diesel engines tested for particulate, carefully install a 
clean particulate filter in each of the filter holders and install 
assembled filter holders in the sample flow line (filter holders may be 
preassembled).
    (21) Follow the manufacturer's choke and throttle instruction for 
hot starting. Simultaneously start the engine and begin exhaust and 
dilution air sampling. For diesel engines, turn on the hydrocarbon and 
NOX (and CO and CO2, if continuous) analyzer 
system integrator (if used), indicate the start of the test on the data 
collection medium, and turn on the particulate sample pump(s).
    (22) As soon as it is determined that the engine is started, start a 
``free idle'' timer.
    (23) Allow the engine to idle freely with no-load for 
241 seconds. The provisions and interpretations of paragraph 
(a)(9) of this section apply.
    (24) Begin the transient-engine cycle such that the first non-idle 
record of the cycle occurs at 251 seconds. The free idle is 
included in the 251 seconds.
    (25) On the last record of the cycle, allow sampling system response 
times to elapse and cease sampling. Turn off the particulate sample 
pump(s) (if appropriate), the gas flow measuring device(s) and any 
continuous analyzer system integrator and indicate the end of the test 
on the data collection medium.
    (26) As soon as possible, transfer the ``hot start cycle'' exhaust 
and dilution air bag samples to the analytical system and process the 
samples according to Sec. 86.1340. A stabilized reading of the exhaust 
sample on all analyzers shall be obtained within 20 minutes of the end 
of the sample collection phase of the test. Analyze the methanol and 
formaldehyde samples within 24 hours. (If it is not possible to perform 
analysis within 24 hours, the samples should be stored in a cold 
(approximately 0  deg.C) dark environment until analysis can be 
performed). For petroleum-fueled and methanol-fueled diesel engines, 
carefully remove the assembled filter holder from the sample flow lines 
and remove each particulate sample filter from its holder and invert the 
secondary filter and place it stain side to stain side on top of the 
primary filter. Place the filter pairs in a clean petri dish and cover 
as soon as possible. Within 1 hour after the end of the hot start phase 
of the test, transfer the particulate filters to the weighing chamber 
for post-test conditioning.
    (27) The CVS and the engine may be turned off, if desired.
    (b) The procedure in paragraph (a) of this section is designed for 
one sample bag for the cold start portion and one for the hot start 
portion. It is also permissible to use more than one sample bag per test 
portion.
    (c) If a dynamometer test run is determined to be void, corrective 
action may be taken. The engine may then be allowed to cool (naturally 
or forced) and the dynamometer test rerun per paragraph (a) or (b) of 
this section.

Sec. 86.1338-84  Emission measurement accuracy.

    (a) Measurement accuracy--Bag sampling. (1) Good engineering 
practice dictates that exhaust emission sample analyzer readings below 
15 percent of full scale chart deflection should generally not be used.
    (2) Some high resolution read-out systems such as computers, data 
loggers, etc., can provide sufficient accuracy and resolution below 15 
percent of full scale. Such systems may be used provided that additional 
calibrations of at least 4 non-zero nominally equally spaced points, 
using good engineering judgement, below 15 percent of full scale are 
made to ensure the accuracy of the calibration curves.
    (3) The following procedure shall be followed:
    (i) Span the analyzer using a calibration gas that meets the 
accuracy requirements of Sec. 86.1314-84(f)(2), is within the operating 
range of the analyzer and at least 90% of full scale.
    (ii) Generate calibration data over the full concentration range at 
a minimum of 6, approximately equally spaced, points (e.g. 15, 30, 45, 
60, 75 and 90 percent of the range of concentrations provided by the gas 
divider). If a gas divider or blender is being used to calibrate the 
analyzer and the requirements of paragraph (a)(2) of this section are 
met, verify that a second calibration gas with a concentration between 
10 and 20 percent of full scale can be named within 2 percent of its 
certified concentration. If more calibration points are needed to meet 
the requirements of paragraph (a)(2) of this section, continue with 
paragraph (a)(3)(iii) of this section.
    (iii) If a gas divider or blender is being used to calibrate the 
analyzer, input the value of a second calibration gas (a span gas may be 
used for calibrating a CO2 analyzer) having a named 
concentration between 10 and 20 percent of full scale. This gas shall be 
included on the calibration curve. Continue adding calibration points by 
dividing this gas until the requirements of paragraph (a)(2) of this 
section are met.
    (iv) Fit a calibration curve per Secs. 86.1321 through 86.1324 for 
the full scale range of the analyzer using the calibration data obtained 
with both calibration gases.
    (b) Measurement accuracy--Continuous sampling. (1) Analyzers used 
for continuous analysis must be operated such that the measured 
concentration falls between 15 and 100 percent of full scale chart 
deflection. Exceptions to these limits are:
    (i) Analyzer response less than 15 percent or more than 100 percent 
of full scale may be used if automatic range change circuitry is used 
and the limits for range changes are between 15 and 100 percent of full 
scale chart deflection;
    (ii) Analyzer response less than 15 percent of full scale may be 
used if one of the following is true:
    (A) Alternative (a)(2) of this section is used to ensure that the 
accuracy of the calibration curve is maintained below 15 percent; or
    (B) The full scale value of the range is 155 ppm (C) or less.
    (iii) Analyzer response over 100% of full scale may be used if it 
can be shown that readings in this range are accurate.
    (iv) The HC and CO readings are allowed to ``spike'' above full 
scale of the analyzer's maximum operating range for a maximum 
accumulation of 5 seconds. These analyzer readings shall default to the 
maximum readable value during this time.
    (c) If a gas divider is used, the gas divider shall conform to the 
accuracy requirements specified in Sec. 86.1314-84(g), and shall be used 
according to the procedures contained in (a) and (b) of this section.
[62 FR 47133, Sept. 5, 1997]



Sec. 86.1339-90  Particulate filter handling and weighing.

    (a) At least 1 hour before the test, place a filter pair in a closed 
(to eliminate dust contamination) but unsealed (to permit humidity 
exchange) petri dish and place in a weighing chamber meeting the 
specifications of Sec. 86.1312 for stabilization.
    (b) At the end of the stabilization period, weigh each filter pair 
on a balance having a precision of 20 micrograms and a readability of 10 
micrograms. This reading is the tare

[[Page 896]]

weight of the filter pair and must be recorded (see 
Sec. 86.1344(e)(18)).
    (c) The filter pair shall then be stored in a covered petri dish or 
a sealed filter holder, either of which shall remain in the weighing 
chamber until needed for testing.
    (d) If the filter pair is not used within 1 hour of its removal from 
the weighing chamber, it must be re-weighed before use. This limit of 1 
hour may be replaced by an 8-hour limit if either of the following three 
conditions are met:
    (1) A stabilized filter pair is placed and kept in a sealed filter 
holder assembly with the ends plugged; or
    (2) A stabilized filter pair is placed in a sealed filter holder 
assembly, which is then immediately placed in a sample line through 
which there is no flow; or
    (3) A combination of the conditions specified in paragraphs (d) (1) 
and (2) of this section.
    (e) After the emissions test, remove the filters from the filter 
holder and place them face to face in a covered but unsealed petri dish. 
They must then be conditioned in the weighing chamber for at least one 
hour. The filters are then weighed as a pair. This reading is the gross 
weight of the filters (Pf) and must be recorded (see Sec. 86.1344-
90(e)(19)).
    (f) The net particulate weight (Pf) on each filter pair is the gross 
weight minus the tare weight. Should the sample on the filters (exhaust 
or background) contact the petri dish or any other surface, the test is 
void and must be rerun.
    (g) Static neutralizers shall be used on petri dishes in accordance 
with good engineering judgement.
[62 FR 47134, Sept. 5, 1997]



Sec. 86.1340-90  Exhaust sample analysis.

    (a) The analyzer response may be read by automatic data collection 
(ADC) equipment such as computers, data loggers, etc. If ADC equipment 
is used the following is required:
    (1) For bag analysis, the analyzer response must be stable at 
greater than 99 percent of the final reading for the dilute exhaust 
sample bag. A single value representing the average chart deflection 
over a 10-second stabilized period shall be stored. For the background 
bag, all readings taken during the 10-second interval must be stable at 
the final value to within 1 percent of full scale.
    (2) For continuous analysis systems, the ADC system must read at 
least two analyzer readings per second. A single value representing the 
average integrated concentration over a cycle shall be stored.
    (3) The chart deflections or average integrated concentrations 
required in paragraphs (a) (1) and (2) of this section may be stored on 
long-term computer storage devices such as computer tapes, storage 
discs, punch cards, or they may be printed in a listing for storage. In 
either case a chart recorder is not required and records from a chart 
recorder, if they exist, need not be stored.
    (4) If the data from ADC equipment is used as permanent records, the 
ADC equipment and the analyzer values as interpreted by the ADC 
equipment are subject to the calibration specifications in Secs. 86.1316 
through 86.1326, as if the ADC equipment were part of the analyzer.
    (b) Data records from any one or a combination of analyzers may be 
stored as chart recorder records.
    (c) Software zero and span. (1) The use of ``software'' zero and 
span is permitted. The process of software zero and span refers to the 
technique of initially adjusting the analyzer zero and span responses to 
the calibration curve values, but for subsequent zero and span checks 
the analyzer response is simply recorded without adjusting the analyzer 
gain. The observed analyzer response recorded from the subsequent check 
is mathematically corrected back to the calibration curve values for 
zero and span. The same mathematical correction is then applied to the 
analyzer's response to a sample of exhaust gas in order to compute the 
true sample concentration.
    (2) The maximum amount of software zero and span mathematical 
correction is 10 percent of full scale chart deflection.
    (3) Software zero and span may be used to switch between ranges 
without adjusting the gain of the analyzer.

[[Page 897]]

    (4) The software zero and span technique may not be used to mask 
analyzer drift. The observed chart deflection before and after a given 
time period or event shall be used for computing the drift. Software 
zero and span may be used after the drift has been computed to 
mathematically adjust any span drift so that the ``after'' span check 
may be transformed into the ``before'' span check for the next segment.
    (d) For bag sample analysis perform the following sequence:
    (1) Warm-up and stabilize the analyzers; clean and/or replace filter 
elements, conditioning columns (if used), etc., as necessary.
    (2) Obtain a stable zero reading.
    (3) Zero and span the analyzers with zero and span gases. The span 
gases shall have concentrations between 75 and 100 percent of full-scale 
chart deflection. The flow rates and system pressures during spanning 
shall be approximately the same as those encountered during sampling. A 
sample bag may be used to identify the required analyzer range.
    (4) Re-check zero response. If this zero response differs from the 
zero response recorded in paragraph (d)(3) of this section by more than 
1 percent of full scale, then paragraphs (d) (2), (3), and (4) of this 
section should be repeated.
    (5) If a chart recorder is used, identify and record the most recent 
zero and span response as the pre-analysis values.
    (6) If ADC equipment is used, electronically record the most recent 
zero and span response as the pre-analysis values.
    (7) Measure HC (except diesels), CO, CO2, and 
NOX sample and background concentrations in the sample bag(s) 
with approximately the same flow rates and pressures used in paragraph 
(d)(3) of this section. (Constituents measured continuously do not 
require bag analysis.)
    (8) A post-analysis zero and span check of each range must be 
performed and the values recorded. The number of events that may occur 
between the pre and post checks is not specified. However, the 
difference between pre-analysis zero and span values (recorded in 
paragraph (d) (5) or (6) of this section) versus those recorded for the 
post-analysis check may not exceed the zero drift limit or the span 
drift limit of 2 percent of full scale chart deflection for any range 
used. Otherwise the test is void.
    (e) For continuous sample analysis perform the following sequence:
    (1) Warm-up and stabilize the analyzers; clean and/or replace filter 
elements, conditioning columns (if used), etc., as necessary.
    (2) Leak check portions of the sampling system that operate at 
negative gauge pressures when sampling, and allow heated sample lines, 
filters, pumps, etc., to stabilize at operating temperature.
    (3) Optional: Perform a hang-up check for the HFID sampling system:
    (i) Zero the analyzer using zero air introduced at the analyzer 
port.
    (ii) Flow zero air through the overflow sampling system. Check the 
analyzer response.
    (iii) If the overflow zero response exceeds the analyzer zero 
response by 2 percent or more of the HFID full-scale deflection, hang-up 
is indicated and corrective action must be taken.
    (iv) The complete system hang-up check specified in paragraph (f) of 
this section is recommended as a periodic check.
    (4) Obtain a stable zero reading.
    (5) Zero and span each range to be used on each analyzer used prior 
to the beginning of the cold cycle. The span gases shall have a 
concentration between 75 and 100 percent of full scale chart deflection. 
The flow rates and system pressures shall be approximately the same as 
those encountered during sampling. The HFID analyzer shall be zeroed and 
spanned through the overflow sampling system.
    (6) Re-check zero response. If this zero response differs from the 
zero response recorded in paragraph (e)(5) of this section by more than 
1 percent of full scale, then paragraphs (e) (4), (5), and (6) of this 
section should be repeated.
    (7) If a chart recorder is used, identify and record the most recent 
zero and span response as the pre-analysis values.

[[Page 898]]

    (8) If ADC equipment is used, electronically record the most recent 
zero and span response as the pre-analysis values.
    (9) Measure the emissions (HC required for diesels; NOX, 
CO, CO2 optional) continuously during the cold start cycle. 
Indicate the start of the test, the range(s) used, and the end of the 
test on the recording medium (chart paper or ADC equipment). Maintain 
approximately the same flow rates and system pressures used in paragraph 
(e)(5) of this section.
    (10) Collect background HC, CO, CO2, and NOX 
in a sample bag.
    (11) Perform a post-analysis zero and span check for each range used 
at the conditions specified in paragraph (e)(5) of this section. Record 
these responses as the post-analysis values.
    (12) Neither the zero drift nor the span drift between the pre-
analysis and post-analysis checks on any range used may exceed 3 percent 
for HC, or 2 percent for NOX, CO, and CO2, of full 
scale chart deflection, or the test is void. (If the HC drift is greater 
than 3 percent of full-scale chart deflection, hydrocarbon hang-up is 
likely.)
    (13) Determine HC background levels for the cold start cycle by 
introducing the background sample into the overflow sample system.
    (14) Determine background levels of NOX, CO, or 
CO2 (if necessary) by the bag technique outlined in paragraph 
(d) of this section.
    (15) Repeat paragraphs (e) (4) through (14) of this section for the 
hot cycle. The post-analysis zero and span check for the cold start (or 
previous hot start) cycle may be used for the pre-analysis zero and span 
for the following hot start cycle.
    (f) HC hang-up. If HC hang-up is indicated, the following sequence 
may be performed:
    (1) Fill a clean sample bag with background air.
    (2) Zero and span the HFID at the analyzer ports.
    (3) Analyze the background air sample bag through the analyzer 
ports.
    (4) Analyze the background air through the entire sample probe 
system.
    (5) If the difference between the readings obtained is 2 percent or 
more of the HFID full scale deflection, clean the sample probe and the 
sample line.
    (6) Reassemble the sample system, heat to specified temperature, and 
repeat the procedure in paragraphs (f) (1) through (6) of this section.
    (g) For CH3OH (where applicable), introduce test samples 
into the gas chromatograph and measure the concentration. This 
concentration is CMS in the calculations.
    (h) For HCHO (where applicable), introduce test samples into the 
high pressure liquid chromatograph and measure the concentration of 
formaldehyde as a dinitrophenylhydrazine derivative in acetonitrile. 
This concentration is CFS in the calculations.

Sec. 86.1341-90  Test cycle validation criteria.

    (a) To minimize the biasing effect of the time lag between the 
feedback and reference cycle values, the entire engine speed and torque 
feedback signal sequence may be advanced or delayed in time with respect 
to the reference speed and torque sequence. If the feedback signals are 
shifted, both speed and torque must be shifted the same amount in the 
same direction.
    (b) Brake horsepower-hour calculation. (1) Calculate the brake 
horsepower-

[[Page 899]]

hour for each pair of engine feedback speed and torque values recorded. 
Also calculate the reference brake horsepower-hour for each pair of 
engine speed and torque reference values. Calculations shall be to five 
significant digits.
    (2) In integrating the reference and the feedback horsepower-hour, 
all negative torque values shall be set equal to zero and included. If 
integration is performed at a frequency of less than 5 Hz, and if during 
a given time segment, the torque value changes from positive to negative 
or negative to positive, then the negative portion must be computed by 
linear interpolation and set equal to zero and the positive portion 
included. The same methodology shall be used for integrating both 
reference and actual brake horsepower-hour.
    (c) Regression line analysis to calculate validation statistics. (1) 
Linear regressions of feedback value on reference value shall be 
performed for speed, torque and brake horsepower on 1 Hz data after the 
feedback shift has occurred (see paragraph (a) of this section). The 
method of least squares shall be used, with the best fit equation having 
the form:

y=mx+b

Where:

y = The feedback (actual) value of speed (rpm), torque (ft-lbs), or 
brake horsepower.
m = Slope of the regression line.
x = The reference value (speed, torque, or brake horsepower).
b = The y-intercept of the regression line.

    (2) The standard error of estimate (SE) of y on x and the 
coefficient of determination (r2) shall be calculated for 
each regression line.
    (3) For a test to be considered valid, the criteria in Figure N90-11 
must be met for both cold and hot cycles individually. Point deletions 
from the regression analyses are permitted where noted in Figure N90-11.

Sec. 86.1405  Introduction; structure of subpart.

    (a) This subpart describes equipment and the procedures required to 
perform the CST on gasoline-fueled Otto-cycle light-duty vehicles and 
gasoline-fueled Otto-cycle light-duty trucks (including those certified 
to operate using both gasoline and another fuel). Subpart A of this part 
sets forth the testing requirements, reporting requirements and test 
intervals necessary to comply with EPA certification procedures, subpart 
G of this part sets forth the requirements for Selective Enforcement 
Auditing of light-duty vehicles, subpart H of this part sets forth the 
standards for in-use testing, subpart K of this part sets forth the 
requirements for Selective Enforcement Auditing of light-duty trucks, 
and part 85, subpart W of this chapter sets forth the testing 
requirements for inspection and maintenance testing (which also may be 
utilized as part of the CST as defined in this subpart).
    (b) Three topics are addressed in this subpart. Sections 86.1406 
through 86.1413 set forth specifications and equipment requirements; 
Secs. 86.1416 through 86.1426 discuss calibration methods and frequency; 
and test procedures and data requirements are described in Secs. 86.1427 
through 86.1442.



Sec. 86.1406  Equipment required and specifications; overview.

    (a) Exhaust emission tests. All vehicles subject to this subpart are 
tested for exhaust emissions.
    (1) Dynamometer. (i) When a CST employs steady state loaded 
operation, the dynamometer must be adjusted to

[[Page 918]]

the lowest available inertia weight setting and must meet the load speed 
relationships described in Sec. 86.1439(d). When a CST employs transient 
loaded warmup operation or loaded preconditioning, the dynamometer must 
be adjusted to the power absorption unit and inertia weight settings as 
described in Sec. 86.129 of this part.
    (ii) All other requirements of this paragraph are set forth in 
Secs. 85.2230 and 85.2233 of this chapter.
    (2) Exhaust gas analysis system. (i) The requirements for the 
exhaust gas analysis system are set forth in Secs. 85.2225 and 85.2233 
of this chapter, except that the NO channel is optional. For the 
purposes of the CST, non-dispersive infrared analyzers are specified for 
measuring emissions.
    (ii) If desired, the line extending between the sample probe and the 
analyzer may be insulated to minimize condensation.
    (b) Fuel and analytical tests. Fuel requirements for the CST are 
specified in Secs. 86.113, 86.213, and 86.1413.

temperature test with Cold CO fuel, a moderate temperature test with 
Cold CO fuel, and a warm temperature test with FTP Otto-cycle test fuel, 
as described in table O-96-1 of Sec. 86.1430. The manufacturer must 
complete testing for the data submittal (as required by the provisions 
of Sec. 86.096-23(c)) under a minimum of one of these scenarios.
    (2) In addition to testing under one of the sets of conditions 
specified in this subpart, the manufacturer may optionally test under 
conditions outside the ranges specified in this subpart.
    (c) Testing by the Administrator. The Administrator reserves the 
right to conduct testing in accordance with the test procedures 
described in Sec. 86.1439, under test conditions within the ranges 
specified in this subpart. The options provided for testing under this 
subpart include a cold temperature test with Cold CO fuel, a moderate 
temperature test with Cold CO fuel, a moderate temperature test with 
Otto-cycle test fuel, and a warm temperature test with Otto-cycle test 
fuel, as described in table O-96-2 of Sec. 86.1430. In order for an 
engine family to be eligible for certification, each of its test 
vehicles that is subjected to one or more CSTs must obtain a passing 
result for each combination of fuel, temperature, and test procedure 
employed in those CSTs, subject to the Administrator's discretion.
    (d) Alternative test procedures and exemptions. (1) The manufacturer 
may request an exemption from any specific test(s) described in 
Sec. 86.1439 for any engine family for which the specific test(s) is not 
appropriate. The requester will supply relevant test data and technical 
support to substantiate the request for an Administrator-granted 
exemption.
    (2) The manufacturer may request alternative test procedures for any 
engine family for which none of the test procedures described in 
Sec. 86.1439 is appropriate. The alternative test procedure(s) must be 
approved in advance by the Administrator in accordance with the 
provisions of Sec. 85.2208 of this chapter.
    (3) If the manufacturer does not submit a written application for 
use of alternative test procedures or for exemptions from specific test 
procedures described in Sec. 86.1439 but the Administrator determines 
that an engine family is not susceptible to satisfactory testing by the 
procedures set forth in this part, the Administrator shall notify the 
manufacturer in writing and set forth the reasons for such rejection in 
accordance with the provisions of Sec. 86.090-22(c).
    (4) The emission control information label for any vehicle for which 
approval of exemptions or alternative test procedure(s) has been granted 
must note such approval, in accordance with Sec. 86.096-35, in order for 
the exemptions or alternative procedures to be effective for that 
vehicle.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    (c) For testing conducted in accordance with this subpart, the 
ambient temperature to which the test vehicle is exposed must not fall 
outside the range specified in this paragraph.
    (1) For the cold temperature compliance pathways--(i) For the 
manufacturer's data submittal. The ambient temperature for the steps 
following the fuel drain and fill or transient test procedure must 
remain between 15  deg.F and 25  deg.F (between -9  deg.C and -4 
deg.C).
    (ii) For testing by the Administrator. The ambient temperature for 
the remainder of the compliance pathway beginning with the step 
following the fuel drain and fill must remain between 15  deg.F and 68 
deg.F (between -9  deg.C and 20  deg.C). In addition, from the warmup 
operation step (if performed) or the wait time step forward through the 
remainder of the CST, the ambient temperature must be maintained within 
 5  deg.F (3  deg.C) of the selected ambient temperature of 
the CST.
    (2) For the moderate and warm temperature compliance pathways--(i) 
For the manufacturer's data submittal. The ambient temperature for the 
steps preceding the warmup operation (if performed) or the wait time (if 
no warmup is performed) must remain within the specific ambient 
temperature range selected for the CST, that is, either moderate or 
warm, as specified in table O-96-1.
    (ii) For testing by the Administrator. The ambient temperature for 
the steps preceding the warmup operation (if performed) or the wait time 
(if no warmup is performed) must remain between 68  deg.F and 96  deg.F 
(between 20  deg.C and 36  deg.C), except as provided in paragraph 
(c)(3) of this section.
    (iii) The warmup operation (if performed) and the entire test run 
from the wait time forward, as described in Sec. 86.1437 or 
Sec. 86.1438, must remain within the specific ambient temperature range 
selected for the CST, that is, either moderate or warm, as specified in 
tables O-96-1 and O-96-2.
    (3) For testing by the Administrator only. If Cold CO fuel is 
selected in conjunction with the moderate temperature compliance 
pathway, the specific provisions described in paragraphs (c)(3) (i) and 
(ii) of this section apply.
    (i) The ambient temperature must be maintained within the moderate 
temperature range, as specified in table O-96-2, from the drain and fuel 
step forward throughout the remainder of the compliance pathway.
    (ii) The ambient temperature of the test cell may not exceed 80 
deg.F (27  deg.C) for the warmup operation (if performed) nor for the 
entire test run from the wait time forward, as described in 
Secs. 86.1438 and 86.1439.
    (d) If the engine stalls at any time during the test run, the CST is 
void unless the stall falls during the wait time within the guidelines 
for engine off time described in Sec. 86.1437 (b) and (d) and 
Sec. 86.1438(d)(1)(i).

Sec. 86.1431  [Reserved]



Sec. 86.1432  Vehicle preparation.

    (a) The test conditions to be employed in the CST procedure must be 
selected from the applicable options specified in table O-96-1 or table 
O-96-2 of Sec. 86.1430(b). The fuel tank must be fitted, as required, to 
accommodate a fuel drain at the lowest point possible in the tank(s) as 
installed on the vehicle.
    (b) Fuel tank drain and fill, or transient test procedure--(1) CST 
performed as a stand-alone procedure. For the first CST compliance 
pathway performed as a stand-alone procedure on a particular test 
vehicle, the fuel tank(s) must be filled to approximately the prescribed 
``tank fuel volume'' (as defined in Sec. 86.082-2) with the specified 
test fuel.

[[Page 925]]

For the cold temperature compliance pathway, the temperature of the fuel 
prior to its delivery to the fuel tank must be less than or equal to 60 
deg.F (16  deg.C). If the existing fuel in the fuel tank(s) does not 
meet the specifications contained in Sec. 86.1413 and Sec. 86.1430(b), 
the existing fuel must be drained prior to the fuel fill as specified 
above. Other refueling during a CST may not be performed. Draining and 
refueling between successive CSTs is allowed and is required prior to 
any CST for which the specified fuel is different than that existing in 
the tank(s). Any soak or operation that follows this step, until the 
conclusion of the CST sequence, must occur at an ambient temperature 
that is within the allowable temperature range described in 
Sec. 86.1430(c).
    (2) CST performed in sequence with other confirmatory testing. 
Certain complete confirmatory test procedures, as indicated in 
paragraphs (b)(2) (i) and (ii) of this section, may be substituted for 
the vehicle preparation steps described in paragraph (b)(1), (c), and 
(d) of this section. If the vehicle is to be subjected to one or more of 
these other confirmatory test procedures, the vehicle is prepared in 
accordance with the applicable complete procedures from the point of 
fuel drain and fill.
    (i) Manufacturer's data submittal. The only test procedure that the 
manufacturer may select to substitute for paragraphs (b)(1), (c)(1), and 
(d)(1) of this section for the purposes of its data submittal is the 
Cold CO Test Procedure, performed in accordance with subpart C of this 
part.
    (ii) Testing by the Administrator. The complete confirmatory test 
sequences that the Administrator may select to substitute for paragraph 
(b)(1) of this section are listed in paragraphs (b)(2)(ii) (A) through 
(C) of this section.
    (A) Federal Test Procedure for exhaust emissions (except when 
performing evaporative test sequence) or for fuel economy testing, in 
accordance with subpart B of this part.
    (B) Highway Fuel Economy Test Procedure, in accordance with part 600 
of this chapter (which must follow a Federal Test Procedure).
    (C) Cold CO Test Procedure, in accordance with subpart C of this 
part.
    (c) Soak--(1) Manufacturer's data submittal. A vehicle soak prior to 
the wait time is optional if the CST sequence is performed as a stand-
alone procedure. If the manufacturer elects to perform a Cold CO Test 
Procedure in conjunction with the CST as permitted in paragraph (b)(2) 
of this section, the soak and subsequent warmup are not conducted, and 
instead the procedure must move directly to the wait time step described 
in Sec. 86.1437(b). If the test vehicle undergoes a soak period, it must 
be maintained at an ambient temperature within the temperature range 
specified in Sec. 86.1430(c), for a period not to exceed 36 hours in 
duration, except as provided in paragraph (d)(1) of this section. 
Ambient temperature during soak periods must remain within the 
appropriate temperature range for the selected test option.
    (2) Testing by the Administrator. (i) The test sequence may proceed 
directly to the wait time step described in Sec. 86.1438(b) within 60 
seconds of the end of vehicle operation conducted in accordance with 
paragraph (b)(2) of this section.
    (ii) Optionally, the test vehicle may soak at an ambient temperature 
within the temperature range specified in Sec. 86.1430(c), for a period 
up to 36 hours in duration, except as provided in paragraph (d)(2) of 
this section. If the Administrator opts to soak the test vehicle, warmup 
operation must be performed as described in paragraph (d)(2) of this 
section.
    (d) Warmup operation--(1) Manufacturer's data submittal. Warmup 
operation is optional. Warmup consists of loaded operation over the 
first 505 seconds of the UDDS (in accordance with Sec. 86.115 and 
appendix I to this part), or optionally, if the soak period has exceeded 
36 hours, a full UDDS. Warmup operation must occur within the specific 
ambient temperature range for the selected test option, as given in 
table O-96-1 of Sec. 86.1430.
    (2) Testing by the Administrator. Warmup operation is performed if 
no transient operation of the type specified in Sec. 86.1432(b)(2) is 
performed prior to the wait time, or if the optional soak exceeds 60 
seconds. Warmup operation consists of, at a minimum, loaded operation 
over the first 505 seconds of

[[Page 926]]

the UDDS (in accordance with Sec. 86.115 and appendix I to this part), 
or, if the soak period has exceeded 36 hours, a full UDDS. Warmup 
operation must occur within the specific ambient temperature range for 
the selected test option, as given in table O-96-2 of Sec. 86.1430, 
except as specified in paragraphs (e)(2)(i) and (ii) of this section. 
Warmup operation must proceed immediately to the wait time step at 
Sec. 86.1438(b).
    (i) For moderate temperature testing utilizing Cold CO fuel only, 
the ambient temperature may not exceed 80  deg.F (27  deg.C) during 
warmup operation, or any of the succeeding steps in the CST sequence.
    (ii) For the cold temperature pathway only, warmup operation must 
occur not only within the specific ambient temperature range indicated 
in table O-96-2 of Sec. 86.1430, but must also occur within 5  deg.F (3 
deg.C) of the selected test temperature.



Sec. 86.1433  [Reserved]



Sec. 86.1434  Equipment preparation.

    (a) Immediately prior to the wait time portion of the test run 
described in Sec. 86.1437 or Sec. 86.1438, or immediately prior to 
warmup operation, the steps described in paragraphs (b) through (d) of 
this section must be performed.
    (b) Check the device(s) for removing water from the exhaust sample 
and the sample filter(s). Remove any water from the water trap(s). Clean 
and replace the filter(s) as necessary.
    (c) Set the zero and span points of the analyzer with the electrical 
spanning network or with analytical gases.
    (d) Attach the tachometer to the vehicle in accordance with the 
analyzer manufacturer's instructions. The manufacturer must ensure, for 
all test and production vehicles and engines, that the rpm signal is 
capable of being read by an exhaust gas analyzer via:
    (1) A conventional inductive tachometer; or
    (2) The onboard diagnostics (OBD) connector, as described under the 
provisions of Sec. 86.094-17; or
    (3) A dedicated electrical lead, marked ``rpm'' and located under 
the hood, with a female-type, quarter-inch spade terminal. The digital 
transistor-transistor logic (TTL) signal must span the 0V-5V range at a 
rate of one pulse per engine revolution, synchronized to the top dead 
center position.



Secs. 86.1435-86.1436  [Reserved]



Sec. 86.1437  Test run--manufacturer.

    (a) This section describes the test run performed by the 
manufacturer for its data submittal pursuant to obtaining a certificate 
of conformity under the provisions of Sec. 86.096-23. The test run 
consists of the wait time, vehicle preconditioning (optional), and the 
selected test procedure. The entire test run is performed in accordance 
with the conditions in the option selected from table O-96-1 of 
Sec. 86.1430.
    (b) Wait time. (1) If the vehicle is not already idling, the vehicle 
is started and allowed to idle freely with the transmission in neutral. 
The vehicle wait time begins when the vehicle engine speed is between 
350 and 1100 rpm. The engine speed must attain the specified idle speed 
within ten seconds of beginning the idle period. A timer for the wait 
time portion of the test run will initiate (wt=0) when the vehicle is 
turned on or when it returns to idle after any transient test procedure, 
as described in Sec. 86.1432.
    (2) Following the first three minutes of idle, this wait time may be 
interrupted by engine off/restart cycles occurring no more frequently 
than every five minutes, with each engine off period having a maximum 
duration of two minutes. Each period of idle following a restart must be 
a minimum of three minutes in duration. During each idle period, the 
engine speed must not exceed 1100 rpm or fall below 350 rpm for more 
than five seconds in any one excursion. The total duration of the wait 
time, including time at idle and time during engine off periods, is 25 
to 30 minutes.
    (c) Optional preconditioning. Immediately following the wait time, 
the engine speed is increased to 2500 300 rpm for 25 to 30 
seconds or, optionally, the vehicle will undergo loaded operation for a 
minimum of 30 seconds between the speeds of 30 and 50 mph (48 to 80 
kph). The period allowed for preconditioning commences upon attaining 
the specified rpm or speed range.

[[Page 927]]

No more than ten seconds may elapse between terminating the wait time 
and attaining the specified rpm or speed range for preconditioning.
    (d) Immediately following the wait time, described in paragraph (b) 
of this section, or, if performed, the optional preconditioning 
described in paragraph (c), the test procedure as described in 
paragraphs (e) through (g) of this section is performed on the test 
vehicle. The general requirements described in paragraphs (d) (1) 
through (4) of this section apply.
    (1) Exhaust gas sampling algorithm. The analysis of exhaust gas 
concentrations begins ten seconds after the applicable test mode begins. 
Exhaust gas concentrations must be analyzed at a minimum rate of once 
every 0.75 second. The measured value for pass/fail determinations is a 
simple running average of the measurements taken over five seconds.
    (2) Void test conditions. The test immediately terminates and any 
exhaust gas measurements are voided if the measured concentration of CO 
plus CO2 falls below six percent or the vehicle's engine 
stalls at any time during the test sequence.
    (3) Multiple exhaust pipes. Exhaust gas concentrations from vehicle 
engines equipped with multiple exhaust pipes must be sampled 
simultaneously.
    (4) Pass/fail determination. A pass or fail determination is made 
for each applicable test mode based on a comparison of the short test 
standards contained in Sec. 86.096-8(a) for light-duty vehicles and in 
Sec. 86.096-9(a) for light-duty trucks, and the measured value for HC 
and CO as described in paragraph (d)(1) of this section. A vehicle 
passes the test mode if any pair of simultaneous values for HC and CO 
are below or equal to the applicable short test standards.
    (e) Test sequence--general requirements. (1) The test sequence 
consists of an idle mode followed by a high-speed mode. The test timer 
starts when the conditions specified in this paragraph are met. The 
overall maximum test time is 290 seconds (tt=290). The test terminates 
immediately upon reaching the overall maximum test time. A vehicle that 
has not yielded passing results by the expiration of the overall test 
time fails the test.
    (2) The test sequence begins only after the requirements described 
in paragraphs (e)(2) (i) and (ii) of this section are met. If these 
conditions are not met within one minute upon completion of the wait 
time or, if performed, the preconditioning, the CST must be aborted.
    (i) The vehicle is tested with the transmission in neutral or park 
and all accessories turned off. The engine must be at normal operating 
temperature (as indicated by a temperature gauge, temperature lamp, 
touch test on the radiator hose, or other visual observation indicating 
that overheating has not occurred).
    (ii) The tachometer must be attached to the vehicle in accordance 
with the analyzer manufacturer's instructions.
    (iii) The sample probe is inserted into the tailpipe to a minimum 
depth of 10 inches. If the vehicle's exhaust system prevents insertion 
to this depth, a tailpipe extension must be used, or the probe may be 
inserted into the tailpipe to CVS connector through an aperture provided 
for this purpose.
    (iv) The measured concentration of CO plus CO2 must be 
greater than or equal to six percent.
    (f) Idle mode. (1) The mode timer starts (mt=0) when the vehicle 
engine speed is between 350 and 1100 rpm. If engine speed exceeds 1100 
rpm or falls below 350 rpm, the mode timer resets to zero and resumes 
timing. The minimum mode time is 30 seconds. The maximum idle mode 
length is 90 seconds elapsed time (mt=90).
    (2) The pass/fail analysis begins after an elapsed time of ten 
seconds (mt=10). A pass or fail determination is made for the vehicle 
and the mode terminated as described in paragraphs (f)(2) (i) through 
(iii) of this section.
    (i) The vehicle passes the idle mode and the mode is terminated at 
the end of an elapsed time of 30 seconds (mt=30) if the measured values 
are less than or equal to the applicable short test standards as 
described in paragraph (d)(4) of this section.
    (ii) The vehicle passes the idle mode and the mode is immediately 
terminated if, at any point between an elapsed time of 30 seconds 
(mt=30) and

[[Page 928]]

90 seconds (mt=90), the measured values are less than or equal to the 
applicable short test standards as described in paragraph (d)(4) of this 
section.
    (iii) The vehicle fails the idle mode and the test is terminated if 
none of the provisions of paragraphs (f)(2) (i) and (ii) of this section 
is met by an elapsed time of 90 seconds (mt=90).
    (g) High-speed mode. This mode follows immediately upon termination 
of the idle mode.
    (1) The mode timer resets (mt=0) when the vehicle engine speed is 
between 2200 and 2800 rpm. If engine speed falls below 2200 rpm or 
exceeds 2800 rpm for more than two seconds in one excursion, or more 
than six seconds over all excursions within 30 seconds of the final 
measured value used in pass/fail determination, the measured value is 
invalidated and the mode continued. If any excursion lasts for more than 
ten seconds, the mode timer resets to zero (mt=0) and timing resumes. 
The minimum high-speed mode length is determined as described in 
paragraph (g)(2) of this section. The maximum high-speed mode length is 
90 seconds elapsed time (mt=90).
    (2) The pass/fail analysis begins after an elapsed time of ten 
seconds (mt=10). A pass or fail determination is made for the vehicle 
and the mode terminated as described in paragraphs (g)(2)(i) through 
(iii) of this section.
    (i) The vehicle passes the high-speed mode and the mode is 
terminated at the end of an elapsed time of 30 seconds (mt=30) if the 
measured values are less than or equal to the applicable short test 
standards as described in paragraph (d)(4) of this section.
    (ii) The vehicle passes the high-speed mode and the mode is 
immediately terminated if, at any point between an elapsed time of 30 
seconds (mt=30) and 90 seconds (mt=90), the measured values are less 
than or equal to the applicable short test standards as described in 
paragraph (d)(4) of this section.
    (iii) The vehicle fails the high-speed mode and the test is 
terminated if none of the provisions of paragraphs (g)(2) (i) and (ii) 
of this section is met by an elapsed time of 90 seconds (mt=90).

Sec. 86.1438  Test run--EPA.

    (a) This section describes the test run performed by the 
Administrator for confirmatory testing pursuant to issuing a certificate 
of conformity under the provisions of Sec. 86.091-29. The Administrator 
may also employ this procedure for Selective Enforcement Audit and 
recall purposes. For recall program testing, in-use vehicles will be set 
to manufacturer's specifications prior to conduct of the CST. The test 
run consists of the wait time, vehicle preconditioning, and the selected 
test procedure. The test run is performed in accordance with the 
conditions in the option selected from table O-96-2 of Sec. 86.1430. If 
the CST is performed in conjunction with other confirmatory testing in 
accordance with Sec. 86.1432(b)(2) and (c)(2), the vehicle must undergo 
the CST at the same specified ambient temperature range as that of the 
other confirmatory testing performed immediately prior to the optional 
vehicle soak, except as specified in paragraphs (a) (1) and (2) of this 
section.
    (1) If the transient confirmatory testing was performed at the 
moderate temperature range specified in Sec. 86.1430 and utilized Otto-
cycle test fuel, it may optionally be followed by a CST sequence as 
described in Sec. 86.1432 (b) and (c) at the warm ambient temperature 
range.
    (2) If the transient confirmatory testing was performed at the 
moderate temperature range specified in Sec. 86.1430 and utilized Cold 
CO test fuel, it may optionally be followed by a CST sequence as 
described in Sec. 86.1432 (b) and (c) at the moderate ambient 
temperature range, except that if the ambient temperature exceeds 80 
deg.F (27  deg.C) at any point for the remainder of the sequence from 
the wait time forward, a non-passing test result renders the test void.
    (b) Wait time. (1) If the vehicle is not already idling, the vehicle 
is started and allowed to idle freely with the transmission in neutral. 
The vehicle wait time begins when the vehicle engine speed is between 
350 and 1100 rpm. The specified idle speed range must be attained within 
ten seconds of beginning the idle operation. A timer for the wait time 
portion of the test run will initiate (wt=0) when it returns to idle

[[Page 929]]

after any transient operation that occurs immediately prior to the wait 
time, as described in Sec. 86.1432, or when the vehicle is restarted 
after being shut off prior to the wait time.
    (2) Following the first three minutes of idle, this wait time may be 
interrupted by vehicle engine off/restart cycles occurring no more 
frequently than every five minutes, with each engine off period having a 
maximum duration of two minutes. Each period of idle following a restart 
must be a minimum of three minutes in duration. During each idle period, 
the engine speed must not exceed 1100 rpm or fall below 350 rpm for more 
than five seconds in any one excursion, except during the allowable 
engine-off periods. The total duration of the wait time, including time 
at idle and time during engine off periods, is three to 30 minutes.
    (c) Preconditioning. Immediately following the wait time, the 
vehicle is preconditioned by increasing engine speed to 2500 
300 rpm for a minimum of 30 seconds, or, optionally, the 
vehicle will undergo loaded operation for a minimum of 30 seconds 
between the speeds of 30 and 50 mph (48 to 80 kph).
    (d) Immediately following the preconditioning described in paragraph 
(c) of this section, the test procedure as described in paragraphs (e) 
through (g) of this section is performed on the test vehicle. When the 
CST--Loaded Test as described in Sec. 86.1439(d) is selected, the 
appropriate changes to dynamometer power absorption and inertia weight 
settings must be completed and the test sequence resumed as soon as 
possible following completion of preconditioning. The general 
requirements described in paragraphs (d) (1) through (4) of this section 
apply.
    (1) Exhaust gas sampling algorithm. The analysis of exhaust gas 
concentrations begins ten seconds after the applicable test mode begins. 
Exhaust gas concentrations must be analyzed at a minimum rate of once 
every 0.75 second. The measured value for pass/fail determinations is a 
simple running average of the measurements taken over five seconds.
    (2) Void test conditions. The test immediately terminates and any 
exhaust gas measurements are voided if the measured concentration of CO 
plus CO2 falls below six percent or the vehicle's engine 
stalls at any time during the test sequence.
    (3) Multiple exhaust pipes. Exhaust gas concentrations from vehicle 
engines equipped with multiple exhaust pipes must be sampled 
simultaneously.
    (4) Pass/fail determination. For certification and Selective 
Enforcement Audit testing, a pass or fail determination is made for each 
applicable test mode based on a comparison of the measured value for HC 
and CO as described in paragraph (d)(1) of this section with the short 
test standards contained in Sec. 86.096-8(a) for light-duty vehicles or 
in Sec. 86.096-9(a) for light-duty trucks. For recall testing, a pass or 
fail determination is made for each applicable test mode based on a 
comparison of the measured value for HC and CO as described in paragraph 
(d)(1) of this section with the short test standards contained in 
Sec. 86.708(a) for light-duty vehicles or in Sec. 86.709(a) for light-
duty trucks. A vehicle passes the test mode if any pair of simultaneous 
values for HC and CO are below or equal to the applicable short test 
standards.
    (e) Test sequence--general requirements. The test timer starts only 
after the requirements described in paragraphs (e) (1) through (4) of 
this section are met. If these conditions are not met within one minute 
upon completion of the preconditioning, the CST must be aborted.
    (1) The vehicle is tested with the transmission in neutral or park 
and all accessories turned off. The engine must be at normal operating 
temperature (as indicated by a temperature gauge, temperature lamp, 
touch test on the radiator hose, or other visual observation indicating 
that overheating has not occurred).
    (2) The tachometer must be attached to the vehicle in accordance 
with the analyzer manufacturer's instructions.
    (3) The sample probe is inserted into the tailpipe to a minimum 
depth of 10 inches. If the vehicle's exhaust system prevents insertion 
to this depth, a tailpipe extension must be used, or the probe may be 
inserted into the tailpipe to CVS connector through an aperture provided 
for this purpose.

[[Page 930]]

    (4) The measured concentration of CO plus CO2 must be 
greater than or equal to six percent.
    (f) When the requirements listed in paragraph (e) of this section 
have been satisfied, the procedure selected by the Administrator from 
among the emission tests described in Sec. 86.1439 is performed on the 
test vehicle in accordance with the conditions prescribed in this 
section and Secs. 86.1430 and 86.1432.
    (g) If a certification test vehicle fails its initial confirmatory 
CST, a retest must be given in accordance with the provisions of 
Sec. 86.091-29(a)(3)(iii)(B)(1) unless the manufacturer withdraws the 
vehicle from the certification process.
    (1) A vehicle receiving a retest must re-enter the confirmatory 
pathway at either:
    (i) The soak time step, as described in Sec. 86.1432, or
    (ii) The drain and fill step preceding the soak time option, as 
described in Sec. 86.1432(b)(1), using the same type of fuel as was used 
in the initial CST. The vehicle may optionally be filled to the 
specified level defined in Sec. 86.082 without being drained.
    (2) A vehicle receiving a retest must either:
    (i) Be maintained in the same ambient temperature range as that 
specified for the initial confirmatory CST (as described in 
Sec. 86.1430(c)) from the termination of the initial confirmatory CST 
throughout the retest, or,
    (ii) If the vehicle is exposed to ambient temperatures outside of 
the specified temperature range, before it enters the wait time it must 
be given a warmup consisting of a full Urban Dynamometer Driving 
Schedule procedure at the specified ambient temperature range for the 
initial CST. The test vehicle will be maintained at the same ambient 
temperature range as that specified for the initial confirmatory CST 
from this step throughout the remainder of the retest.
    (h) Multiple CSTs. The Administrator may elect to conduct more than 
one type of CST on a test vehicle.
    (1) If the Administrator elects to change fuels between one CST and 
a subsequent CST, the subsequent CST initiates at the drain and fill 
step described in Sec. 86.1432(b)(1).
    (2) If the Administrator elects to utilize the same fuel between one 
CST and a subsequent CST other than a retest, the Administrator may 
optionally initiate the subsequent CST at the vehicle soak step 
specified in Sec. 86.1432(d).

Sec. 86.1439  Certification Short Test emission test procedures--EPA.

    (a) The portions of the performance warranty test procedures 
described in part 85, subpart W of this chapter designated as ``second-
chance'' which are analogous to the CST emission test procedures do not 
apply to the testing performed in accordance with this subpart. The 
Administrator selects from among the CST emission test procedures listed 
in paragraphs (b) through (f) of this section, which are incorporated 
into the vehicle test run at the point described in Sec. 86.1438(f); 
that is, after the requirements of Sec. 86.1438(e) have been satisfied.
    (b) CST--Two-speed idle test. This test consists of an idle sampling 
mode followed immediately by a high-speed sampling mode. The test timer 
starts (tt=0) when the conditions specified in Sec. 86.1438(e) are met. 
The overall maximum test time is 290 seconds (tt=290). The test 
terminates immediately upon reaching the overall maximum test time. A 
vehicle that has not yielded passing results by the expiration of the 
overall test time fails the test.
    (1) Idle mode. (i) The mode timer starts (mt=0) when the vehicle 
engine speed is between 350 and 1100 rpm. If engine speed exceeds 1100 
rpm or falls below 350 rpm, the mode timer resets to zero and resumes 
timing. The minimum mode time is 30 seconds. The maximum idle mode 
length is 90 seconds elapsed time (mt=90).
    (ii) The pass/fail analysis begins after an elapsed time of ten 
seconds (mt=10). A pass or fail determination is made for the vehicle 
and the mode terminated as described in paragraphs (b)(1)(ii) (A) and 
(B) of this section.
    (A) The vehicle passes the idle mode if the measured values are less 
than or equal to the applicable short test standards as described in 
Sec. 86.1438(d)(4) prior to an elapsed time of 90 seconds (mt=90). If 
the vehicle passes, the mode

[[Page 931]]

terminates immediately, or after an elapsed time of 30 seconds (mt=30), 
whichever comes second.
    (B) The vehicle fails the idle mode and the test is immediately 
terminated if the requirements of paragraph (b)(1)(i)(A) of this section 
are not satisfied by an elapsed time of 90 seconds (mt=90).
    (2) High-speed mode. This mode follows immediately upon termination 
of the idle mode.
    (i) The mode timer resets (mt=0) when the vehicle engine speed is 
between 2200 and 2800 rpm. If engine speed falls below 2200 rpm or 
exceeds 2800 rpm for more than two seconds in one excursion, or more 
than six seconds over all excursions within 30 seconds of the final 
measured value used in pass/fail determination, the measured value is 
invalidated and the mode continued. If any excursion lasts for more than 
ten seconds, the mode timer resets to zero (mt=0) and timing resumes. 
The minimum high-speed mode length is determined as described in 
paragraph (b)(2)(ii) of this section. The maximum high-speed mode length 
is 90 seconds elapsed time (mt=90).
    (ii) The pass/fail analysis begins after an elapsed time of ten 
seconds (mt=10). A pass or fail determination is made for the vehicle 
and the mode terminates as described in paragraphs (b)(2)(ii) (A) and 
(B) of this section.
    (A) The vehicle passes the high-speed mode and the test is 
immediately terminated if, at any point prior to an elapsed time of 90 
seconds (mt=90), the measured values are less than or equal to the 
applicable short test standards as described in Sec. 86.1438(d)(4).
    (B) The vehicle fails the high-speed mode and the test is terminated 
if the requirements of paragraph (b)(2)(ii)(A) of this section are not 
satisfied by an elapsed time of 90 seconds (mt=90).
    (c) CST--Idle test. This test consists of an idle sampling mode 
only. The test timer starts when the conditions specified in 
Sec. 86.1438(e) are met. The overall maximum test time is 145 seconds 
(tt=145). The test terminates immediately upon reaching the overall 
maximum test time. A vehicle that has not yielded passing results by the 
expiration of the overall test time fails the test.
    (1) The mode timer starts (mt=0) when the vehicle engine speed is 
between 350 and 1100 rpm. If engine speed exceeds 1100 rpm or falls 
below 350 rpm, the mode timer resets to zero and resumes timing. The 
minimum mode length is determined as described under paragraph (c)(2) of 
this section. The maximum mode length is 90 seconds elapsed time 
(mt=90).
    (2) The pass/fail analysis begins after an elapsed time of ten 
seconds (mt=10). A pass or fail determination is made for the vehicle 
and the mode is terminated in accordance with paragraphs (c)(2) (i) and 
(ii) of this section.
    (i) The vehicle passes the idle mode and the test is immediately 
terminated if, at any point prior to an elapsed time of 90 seconds 
(mt=90), the measured values are less than or equal to the applicable 
short test standards as described in Sec. 86.1438(d)(4).
    (ii) The vehicle fails the idle mode and the test is terminated if 
the requirements of paragraph (c)(2)(i) of this section are not 
satisfied by an elapsed time of 90 seconds (mt=90).
    (d) CST--Loaded test. This test consists of a loaded sampling mode 
followed immediately by an idle sampling mode. The test timer starts 
(tt=0) when the conditions specified in Sec. 86.1438(e) are met, and the 
gear selector is in `drive' for automatic transmissions, or in second 
gear (or third gear if more appropriate) for manual transmissions. The 
overall maximum test time is 240 seconds (tt=240). The test terminates 
immediately upon reaching the overall maximum test time. A vehicle that 
has not yielded passing results by the expiration of the overall test 
time fails the test.
    (1) Loaded mode. (i) The mode timer starts (mt=0) when the 
dynamometer speed is within the limits specified for the vehicle engine 
size according to the following schedule. If the dynamometer speed falls 
outside the limits for more than five seconds in one excursion, or 15 
seconds over all excursions, the mode timer resets to zero and resumes 
timing. The minimum mode length is determined as described in paragraph 
(d)(1)(ii) (A) and (B) of this section. The maximum mode length is 90 
seconds elapsed time (mt=90).

Sec. 86.1526-84  Calibration of other equipment.

    Other test equipment used for testing shall be calibrated as often 
as necessary according to good engineering practice.



Sec. 86.1527-84  Idle test procedure; overview.

    (a) The idle emission test procedure is designed to determine the 
raw concentration (in percent) of CO in the exhaust flow at idle. The 
test procedure begins with the engine at normal operating temperature. 
(For example, the warm-up for an engine may be the transient engine or 
chassis dynamometer test.)

[[Page 938]]

    (b) Raw emission sampling must be made before dilution occurs from a 
single exhaust pipe in which exhaust products are homogeneously mixed. 
The configuration for dual-exhaust systems must also allow for raw 
emission measurements, which will require that an additional ``Y'' pipe 
be placed in the exhaust system before dilution.



Sec. 86.1530-84  Test sequence; general requirements.

    (a) The following test sequence lists the major steps encountered 
during the idle test:

Preparation
Warm-up (or Emission Test)
Preconditioning, 30 seconds minimum, six minutes maximum
Idle Stabilization, 305 seconds
Idle Emission Sampling, one minute minimum, six minutes maximum


These steps are described by subsequent procedures.
    (b) Ambient test cell conditions during the test shall be those 
specified in Sec. 86.1330-84 or Sec. 86.130-78.



Sec. 86.1537-84  Idle test run.

    The following steps shall be taken for each test:
    (a) Check the device(s) for removing water from the exhaust sample 
and the sample filter(s). Remove any water from the water trap(s). Clean 
and replace the filter(s) as necessary.
    (b) Set the zero and span points of the CO analyzer with the 
electrical spanning network or with analytical gases.
    (c) Achieve normal engine operating condition. The transient engine 
or chassis dynamometer test is an acceptable technique for warm-up to 
normal operating condition for the idle test. If the emission test is 
not performed prior to the idle emission test, a heavy-duty engine may 
be warmed-up according to Sec. 86.1332-84(d)(2) (i) through (iv). A 
light-duty truck may be warmed up by operation through one Urban 
Dynamometer Driving Schedule test procedure (see Sec. 86.115-78 and 
appendix I to this part).
    (d) Operate the warm engine at 2500 50 rpm, or rated 
torque speed for diesel-cycle engines, and zero load for a minimum of 30 
seconds and a maximum of 6 minutes.
    (e) If the CVS sampling system is used, the following procedures 
apply:
    (1) If bag samples are drawn, with the sample selector valves in the 
standby position connect evacuated sample collection bags to the dilute 
exhaust and dilution air sample collection systems.
    (2) Start the CVS (if not already on), the sample pumps, 
integrators, and the raw CO2 analyzer, as applicable. (The 
heat exchanger of the constant volume sampler, if used, shall be running 
at operating temperature before sampling begins.)
    (3) Adjust the sample flow rates to the desired flow rate and set 
the gas flow measuring devices to zero.
    (4) Operate the engine or vehicle at curb idle for 305 
seconds with the clutch disengaged or in neutral gear. A heavy-duty 
engine may also be disconnected from the dynamometer, or the dynamometer 
may be shut off.
    (5) Begin raw and dilute sampling.
    (6) For bag sampling, sample idle emissions long enough to obtain a 
sufficient bag sample, but in no case shorter than 60 seconds nor longer 
than 6 minutes. Follow the sampling and exhaust measurements 
requirements of Sec. 86.340-79(e) for the conducting of the raw 
CO2 measurement.
    (7) As soon as possible, transfer the idle test exhaust and dilution 
air samples to the analytical system and process the samples according 
to Sec. 86.1540-84. Obtain a stabilized reading of the exhaust sample on 
all analyzers within 20 minutes of the end of the sample collection 
phase of the test.
    (f) If the raw exhaust sampling and analysis technique specified in 
Sec. 86.309-79 is used, the following procedures apply:
    (1) Warm up the engine or vehicle per paragraphs (c) and (d) of this 
section. Operate the engine or vehicle at the conditions specified in 
paragraph (e)(4) of this section.
    (2) Follow the sampling and exhaust measurement requirements of 
Sec. 86.340-79(e). The idle sample shall be taken for 60 seconds 
minimum, and no more than 64 seconds. The chart reading procedures of 
Sec. 86.343-79 shall be used to determine the analyzer response.

[[Page 939]]

    (g) If the engine or vehicle stalls at any time during the test run, 
the test is void.

Sec. 86.1540-84  Idle exhaust sample analysis.

    (a) Record the CO idle concentrations in percent.
    (b) If the CVS sampling system is used, the analysis procedures for 
dilute CO and CO2 specified in Sec. 86.1340-84 apply. Follow 
the raw CO2 analysis procedure specified in Sec. 86.343-79 
for the raw CO2 analyzer.
    (c) If the continuous raw exhaust sampling technique (Sec. 86.309-
79) is used, the analysis procedures for CO specified in Sec. 86.343-79 
apply.



Sec. 86.1542-84  Information required.

    (a) General data--heavy-duty engines. Information shall be recorded

equal to the percent of raw dry-basis CO2 minus 0.5 percent 
is acceptable. For example:

10.0% dry CO2-0.5%=9.5% water
(1.00-0.095) (10.0% dry CO2)=9.05% wet CO2

    (4) Calculate the CVS dilution factor (DF) by:
    [GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR06OC93.138
    
    (5) Convert the dilute wet-basis CO to dilute dry-basis values. An 
assumption that the percent of water by volume in the sample bag is 2 
percent is acceptable. For example:

Dilute dry CO=(dilute wet CO)/(1.00-0.02)

    (6) Calculate the raw dry-basis CO values by:

Raw dry CO=(DF) (dilute dry CO)

    (c) If the raw exhaust sampling and analysis system specified in 
Sec. 86.309-79 is used, the percent for carbon monoxide on a dry basis 
shall be calculated using the procedure, as applicable, in Sec. 86.345-
79.

Sec. 86.1602  Definitions.

    The definitions provided in subpart A also apply in this subpart. 
Additional definitions that apply in this subpart are as follow:
    Altitude performance adjustments are adjustments or modifications 
made to vehicle, engine, or emission control functions in order to 
improve emission control performance at altitudes other than those for 
which the vehicles were designed.
    Low altitude means any elevation less than or equal to 1,219 meters 
(4,000 feet).
    Manufacturer parts are parts produced or sold by the manufacturer of 
the motor vehicle or motor vehicle engine.

[[Page 941]]



Sec. 86.1603  General requirements.

    (a) Manufacturers of vehicles specified in Sec. 86.1601 shall submit 
to the Administrator for approval the following altitude performance 
adjustment instructions.
    (1) Low-altitude adjustment instructions for vehicles certified to 
meet the appropriate high-altitude emission standards.
    (2) High-altitude adjustment instructions for vehicles certified to 
meet the appropriate low-altitude emission standards.
    (b) Manufacturers are not required to submit altitude adjustment 
instructions for vehicles equipped with systems or devices that 
compensate (in full or in part) the engine fuel metering system for air 
density changes. Manufacturers claiming this exemption must submit to 
the Administrator for approval a notification of the claim specifying 
the affected vehicles. The notification must also describe the 
compensating system used.
    (c) Manufacturers may request the Administrator to waive the 
application of this regulation for vehicles which potentially may never 
be operated at an altitude other than that for which they were designed 
(such as vehicles which are not offered for sale within the continental 
United States).
    (d) Manufacturers shall meet the requirements of paragraph (a), 
according to the following schedule:
    (1) Altitude adjustment instructions for all 1980 and earlier model 
year vehicles or engines shall be submitted to the Administrator within 
one (1) year of the effective date of this regulation.
    (2) Altitude adjustment instructions for 1982 and later model year 
vehicles or engines shall be submitted to the Administrator within 30 
days of the issuance of the certificate of conformity for those vehicles 
or engines. For vehicles or engines certified for the 1981 model year 
before the publication of this regulation, altitude adjustment 
instructions shall be submitted within 90 days of the publication of 
this regulation.
    (e) Failure to submit altitude performance adjustment instructions 
in accordance with this section is a violation of section 203(a)(3) of 
the Clean Air Act and may result in penalties as specified in section 
205 of the Clean Air Act. The Administrator may grant extensions of the 
schedule in paragraph (c) if the manufacturer submits a written request 
to the Administrator specifying the reasons for the need for the 
extension. Requests for an extension must be received by EPA at least 5 
working days prior to the submittal date contained in paragraph (d).
    (f) The adjustment instructions (including labels) that the 
Administrator approves under this subpart shall be made available by the 
manufacturer at no cost to service outlets and the general public. EPA 
encourages manufacturers to notify vehicle owners in high-altitude areas 
of the availability of high-altitude adjustments.
    (g) If altitude adjustments are performed according to the 
instructions approved by the Administrator, they will not be treated as 
violations of the tampering provisions of section 203(a) of the Act 
except as described below:



Sec. 86.1604  Conditions for disapproval.

    (a) The Administrator shall not approve altitude performance 
adjustments that will:
    (1) Cause any regulated pollutant emission level to increase if the 
emission level exceeded the appropriate emission standard before 
adjustment was made.
    (2) Cause any regulated pollutant emission level to exceed the 
appropriate emission standard if the emission level did not exceed the 
emission standard before the adjustment was made.
    (3) For light-duty vehicles, light-duty trucks, motorcycles, heavy-
duty gasoline-fueled engines, cause any reduction of vehicle performance 
(as evaluated by the manufacturer) such that vehicle drivers will likely 
complain.
    (4) Be of such technical complexity or require such complex, 
expensive, or exclusive equipment that a competent mechanic in an 
average service establishment cannot perform the adjustments correctly. 
Adjustment procedures should not require knowledge or training beyond 
that required to perform normal engine maintenance. All required 
equipment must be available to any service establishment at competitive 
cost.

[[Page 942]]

    (5) Require the use of manufacturer parts, unless they are necessary 
to ensure emission control performance and unless the Administrator 
grants a waiver under section 207(c)(3)(B) of the Act.
    (6) Removes or defeats the parameter adjustment controls for the 
parameters listed in Secs. 86.081-22(e)(1)(i) and 86.082-22(e)(1)(i) for 
light-duty vehicles and light-duty trucks, and Sec. 86.428-80(d) for 
motorcycles unless:
    (i) The manufacturer determines that it is reasonable to restore the 
parameter adjustment control in use and provides appropriate instruction 
as part of the high-altitude performance adjustment instructions, or
    (ii) The manufacturer determines that is is not reasonable to 
restore the parameter adjustment control in use and alternatively 
includes on the label required in Sec. 86.1606 a statement to the effect 
that the labeled vehicle can be adjusted but that adjustment to other 
than manufacturer specification may be considered violation of Federal 
law.
    (b) If the Administrator determines that the altitude performance 
adjustment instructions cannot be approved, the Administrator shall 
notify the manufacturer in writing of the disapproval. This notification 
shall explain the reasons for the disapproval.

      Vehicle Program for Light-Duty Vehicles and Light-Duty Trucks

    Source: 62 FR 31242, June 6, 1997, unless otherwise noted.



Sec. 86.1701-99  General applicability.

    (a) The provisions of this subpart may be adopted by vehicle 
manufacturers pursuant to the provisions specified in Sec. 86.1705. The 
provisions of this subpart are generally applicable to 1999 and later 
model year light-duty vehicles and light light-duty trucks to be sold in 
the Northeast Trading Region, and 2001 and later model year light-duty 
vehicles and light light-duty trucks to be sold in the United States. In 
cases where a provision applies only to certain vehicles based on model 
year, vehicle class, motor fuel, engine type, vehicle emission category, 
intended sales destination, or other distinguishing characteristics, 
such limited applicability is cited in the appropriate section or 
paragraph. The provisions of this subpart shall be referred to as the 
``National Low Emission Vehicle Program'' or ``National LEV'' or 
``NLEV.''
    (b) All requirements of 40 CFR parts 85 and 86, unless specifically 
superseded by the provisions of this subpart, shall apply to vehicles 
under the National LEV Program. Compliance with the provisions of this 
subpart will be deemed compliance with some of the requirements of 40 
CFR parts 85 and 86, as set forth elsewhere in this subpart.

[[Page 944]]

    (c) The requirements of this subpart apply to new vehicles 
manufactured by covered manufacturers through model year 2003. In 
addition, the requirements of this subpart apply to new vehicles 
manufactured by covered manufacturers for model years prior to the first 
model year for which a mandatory federal exhaust emissions program for 
light-duty vehicles and light light-duty trucks is at least as stringent 
as the National LEV program with respect to NMOG, NOX, and CO 
exhaust emissions, as determined by the Administrator, provided that 
such a program is promulgated no later than December 15, 2000, and is 
effective no later than model year 2006.
    (d) Adoption of the National LEV program does not impose gasoline or 
other in-use fuel requirements and is not intended to require any new 
federal or state regulation of fuels. Vehicles under National LEV will 
be able to operate on any fuels, including conventional gasoline, that, 
in the absence of the National LEV program, could be sold under federal 
or state law.

    [I am forwarding to EPA the [enclosed letter signed enclosed letter 
and proposed regulations which were signed and proposed] by HEAD OF 
APPROPRIATE STATE AGENCY at my direction, and which [specifies/specify] 
the details of STATE's commitment to the National LEV program. I am 
forwarding to EPA and concur with the [enclosed letter signed/enclosed 
letter and proposed regulations signed and proposed] by HEAD OF 
APPROPRIATE STATE AGENCY, which [specifies/specify] the details of 
STATE's commitment to the National LEV program.]
    I [hereby direct/have directed] APPROPRIATE STATE AGENCY to follow 
the procedures prescribed by the general statutes of STATE to take the 
necessary steps to adopt regulations and submit a state implementation 
plan (SIP) revision committing STATE to National LEV in accordance with 
the EPA National LEV regulations on SIP revisions at 40 CFR part 86, 
subpart R, and with section 110 of the Clean Air Act and its 
implementing regulations at 40 CFR parts 51 and 52.

    (ii) States with Existing ZEV Mandates may add language to the 
letter submitted pursuant to this paragraph (e)(2) confirming that this 
opt-in will not affect the state's requirements pertaining to ZEVs.
    (3) A letter signed by the head of the appropriate state agency that 
would unconditionally (except as set forth in this section) include the 
following:
    (i) States without a Section 177 Program, or with a Section 177 
Program but not an Existing ZEV Mandate, shall include the following 
language:

    National LEV is designed as a compliance alternative for OTC State 
programs adopted pursuant to section 177 of the Clean Air Act that apply 
to passenger cars, light-duty trucks up through 6,000 pounds GVWR, and/
or medium-duty vehicles from 6,001 to 14,000 pounds GVWR if designed to 
operate on gasoline, as these categories of motor vehicles are defined 
in the California Code of Regulations, Title 13, Division 3, Chapter 1, 
Article 1, Section 1900. For the duration of STATE's participation in 
National LEV, [STATE will allow manufacturers to / manufacturers may] 
comply with National LEV or equally stringent mandatory Federal 
standards in lieu of compliance with any program adopted by STATE 
pursuant to the authority provided in section 177 of the Clean Air Act 
applicable to the vehicle classes specified above, including any ZEV 
mandates. STATE's participation in National LEV extends until model year 
2006, except as provided in 40 CFR 86.1707. If, no later than December 
15, 2000, the US EPA does not adopt standards at least as stringent as 
the National LEV standards provided in 40 CFR part 86 subpart R that 
apply to new motor vehicles in model year 2004, 2005 or 2006, STATE's 
participation in National LEV extends only until model year 2004, except 
as provided in 40 CFR 86.1707.
    For the duration of STATE's participation in National LEV, STATE 
[intends to/will] forbear from adopting and implementing a ZEV mandate 
effective before model year 2006.

    (ii) States with a Section 177 Program and an Existing ZEV Mandate, 
shall include the following language:

    National LEV is designed as a compliance alternative for OTC State 
programs adopted pursuant to section 177 of the Clean Air Act that apply 
to passenger cars, light-duty trucks up through 6,000 pounds GVWR, and 
medium-duty vehicles from 6,001 to 14,000 pounds GVWR if designed to 
operate on gasoline, as these categories of motor vehicles are defined 
in the California Code of Regulations, Title 13, Division 3, Chapter 1, 
Article 1, Section 1900. With the exception of any requirements 
pertaining to ZEVs, for the duration of STATE's participation in 
National LEV, [STATE will allow manufacturers to / manufacturers may] 
comply with National LEV or equally stringent mandatory Federal 
standards in lieu of compliance with any program adopted by STATE 
pursuant to the authority provided in section 177 of the Clean Air Act 
applicable to the vehicle classes specified above. STATE's participation 
in National LEV extends until model year 2006, except as provided in 40 
CFR 86.1707. If, no later than December 15, 2000, the US EPA does not 
adopt standards at least as stringent as the National LEV standards 
provided in 40 CFR part 86 subpart R that apply to new motor vehicles in 
model year 2004, 2005 or 2006, STATE's participation in National LEV 
extends only until model year 2004, except as provided in 40 CFR 
86.1707. Any existing or future requirement pertaining to ZEVs is not 
affected by STATE's acceptance of National LEV as a compliance 
alternative for other state requirements.

    (iii) All states shall include the following language:

    Based on EPA's determination in the preamble to the final National 
LEV rule [CITE], STATE believes that National LEV will achieve 
reductions of VOC and NOX emissions that are equivalent to or 
greater than the reductions that would be achieved through OTC State 
adoption of California Low Emission Vehicle programs in the Ozone 
Transport Region.

    (iv) All states shall include the following language:


[[Page 951]]


    STATE intends National LEV to be STATE's new motor vehicle emissions 
control program.

    (v) All states shall include the following language:

    STATE recognizes that motor vehicle manufacturers are committing to 
National LEV with the expectation that, until model year 2006 (or, under 
the circumstances specified above, model year 2004), the OTC States that 
commit to the National LEV program will allow National LEV as a 
compliance alternative for state programs adopted pursuant to the 
authority provided in section 177 of the Clean Air Act, applying to the 
vehicle classes specified above (except any requirements pertaining to 
ZEVs in states with Existing ZEV Mandates). It is our intent to abide by 
this commitment. [However, the provisions of this letter will not have 
the force of law until STATE adopts them as state regulations. / 
Regulations providing for STATE's opt-in to National LEV have been 
approved for proposed rulemaking by APPROPRIATE STATE AGENCY on [INSERT 
DATE]. However, they will not have the force and effect of law until 
they are approved as final regulations.] Adoption of state regulations 
and the contents of a final state implementation plan revision will be 
determined through a state rulemaking process pursuant to the state 
requirements at [CITE to STATE law] and Federal law. Also, STATE must 
comply with any subsequent STATE legislation that might affect this 
commitment.

    (vi) All states shall include the following language:

    If the manufacturers exit the National LEV program pursuant to the 
EPA National LEV regulations at 40 CFR 86.1707, STATE [acknowledges / 
provides in its proposed rule] that the transition from National LEV 
requirements to any STATE program adopted pursuant to the authority 
provided in section 177 of the Clean Air Act applying to the vehicle 
classes specified above, including any requirements pertaining to ZEVs 
(except any requirements pertaining to ZEVs in states with Existing ZEV 
Mandates), will proceed in accordance with the EPA National LEV 
regulations at 40 CFR 86.1707.

    (vii) All states shall include the following language:

    STATE supports the legitimacy of the National LEV program and EPA's 
authority to promulgate the National LEV regulations.

    (viii) Any state may include the following language:

    [This [commitment/opt-in] / As provided in the proposed regulations, 
STATE's opt-in] is conditioned on all motor vehicle manufacturers 
(listed in EPA regulations at 40 CFR 86.1706(c)) opting into National 
LEV and on EPA finding that National LEV is in effect pursuant to 40 CFR 
86.1706.

    (4) In lieu of statements described in paragraphs (e)(3)(i), 
(e)(3)(ii) and (e)(3)(vi) of this section, states may submit proposed 
regulations containing the provisions required under paragraphs (g)(1), 
(g)(2), (g)(3), and (g)(5) of this section.
    (f) A state shall be considered to have opted in upon the 
Administrator's receipt of the opt-in notification and satisfaction of 
the conditions set forth in paragraph (e)(3)(viii) of this section, if 
applicable.
    (g) Each OTC State that opts into National LEV pursuant to paragraph 
(e) of this section shall submit a state implementation plan (SIP) 
revision within one year and seventy-five days of December 16, 1997 
except for the District of Columbia, New Hampshire, Delaware, and 
Virginia, for which the deadline is 18 months and seventy-five days from

participation in National LEV extends only until model year 2004, except 
as provided in 40 CFR 86.1707.
    Any existing or future STATE requirement pertaining to ZEVs is not 
affected by STATE's acceptance of National LEV as a compliance 
alternative for other state requirements.

    (3) All covered states shall submit regulations containing the 
following language:

    If a covered manufacturer, as defined at 40 CFR 86.1702, opts out of 
the National LEV program pursuant to the EPA National LEV regulations at 
40 CFR 86.1707, the transition from National LEV requirements to any

Sec. 86.1707-99  General provisions; opt-outs.

    A covered manufacturer or covered state may opt out of the National 
LEV program only according to the provisions of this section. Vehicles 
certified under the National LEV program must continue to meet the 
standards to which they were certified, regardless of whether the 
manufacturer of those vehicles remains a covered manufacturer. A 
manufacturer that has opted out remains responsible for any debits 
outstanding on the effective date of opt-out, pursuant to 
Sec. 86.1710(d)(3).
    (a) Procedures for opt-outs--manufacturers. To opt out of the 
National LEV program, a covered manufacturer must notify the 
Administrator as provided in Sec. 86.1705(c)(1), except that the 
notification shall specify the condition and final action allowing opt-
out, indicate the manufacturer's intent to opt out of the program and no 
longer be subject to the provisions in this subpart, and specify an 
effective date for the opt-out. The effective date shall be specified in 
terms of the first model year for which the opt-out shall be effective, 
but shall be no earlier than the applicable date indicated in paragraphs 
(d) through (j) of this section. For an opt-out pursuant to paragraph 
(d) of this section, the manufacturer shall specify the revision 
triggering the opt-out and shall also provide evidence that the 
triggering revision does not harmonize the standard or requirement with 
a comparable California standard or requirement, if applicable, or that 
the triggering revision has increased the stringency of the revised 
standard or requirement, if applicable. The notification shall include 
the following language:

    XX COMPANY, its subsidiaries, successors and assigns hereby opt out 
of the voluntary National LEV program, as set forth in 40 CFR part 86, 
subpart R.

    (b) Procedures for opt-outs--OTC states. To opt out of the National 
LEV program, a covered state must notify the Administrator through a 
written statement from the head of the appropriate state agency. A copy 
of the notification shall be sent to the Director, Vehicle Programs and 
Compliance Division; U.S. Environmental Protection Agency; 2565 Plymouth 
Road; Ann Arbor, Michigan, 48105. The notification shall specify the 
final action allowing opt-out, indicate the state's intent to opt out of 
the program and no longer be subject to the provisions in this subpart, 
and specify an effective date for the opt-out. The effective date shall 
be specified in terms of the first model year for which the opt-out 
shall be effective, but shall be no earlier than the applicable date 
indicated in paragraphs (d) through (k) of this section. The 
notification shall include the following language:

    STATE hereby opts out of the voluntary National LEV program, as set 
forth in 40 CFR part 86, subpart R.

    (c) Procedures for opt-outs--EPA notification. Upon receipt of an 
opt-out notification under this section, EPA shall promptly notify the 
covered states and covered manufacturers of the opt-out. Publication in 
the Federal Register of notice of receipt of the opt-out notification is 
sufficient but not necessary to meet EPA's obligation to notify covered 
states and covered manufacturers.

[[Page 954]]

    (d) Conditions allowing manufacturer opt-outs--change to Stable 
Standards. A covered manufacturer may opt out if EPA promulgates a final 
rule or takes other final agency action making a revision not specified 
in paragraph (d)(9)(iii) of this section to a standard or requirement 
listed in paragraph (d)(9)(i) of this section and the covered 
manufacturer objects to the revision.
    (1) A covered manufacturer may opt out within 180 calendar days of 
the EPA action allowing opt-out under this paragraph (d). A valid opt-
out based on a revision to a Core Stable Standard shall be effective no 
earlier than the model year named for the calendar year following the 
calendar year in which EPA receives the manufacturer's opt-out 
notification. A valid opt-out based on a revision to a Non-Core Stable 
Standard may become effective no earlier than the first model year to 
which that revision applies.
    (i) Only a covered manufacturer that objects to a revision may opt 
out if EPA adopts that revision, except that if such a manufacturer opts 
out, other manufacturers that did not object to the revision may also 
opt out pursuant to paragraph (j) of this section. An objection shall be 
sufficient for this purpose only if it was filed during the public 
comment period on the proposed revision and the objection states that 
the proposed revision is sufficiently significant to allow opt-out under 
this paragraph (d).
    (ii) [Reserved]
    (2) Within sixty days of receipt of an opt-out notification under 
this paragraph (d), EPA shall determine whether the opt-out is valid by 
determining whether the alleged condition allowing opt-out has occurred 
and whether the opt-out complies with the requirements under paragraphs 
(a) and (d) of this section. An EPA determination regarding the validity 
of an opt-out is not a rule, but is a nationally applicable final agency 
action subject to judicial review pursuant to section 307(b) of the 
Clean Air Act (42 U.S.C. 7607(b)).
    (3) A manufacturer that has submitted an opt-out notification to EPA 
under this paragraph (d) remains a covered manufacturer until the opt-
out has come into effect under paragraph (d)(1) of this section and EPA 
or a reviewing court determines that the opt-out is valid.
    (4) In the event that a manufacturer petitions for judicial review 
of an EPA determination that an opt-out is invalid, the manufacturer 
remains a covered manufacturer until final judicial resolution of the 
petition. Pending resolution of the petition, and starting with the 
model year for which the opt-out would have come into effect under 
paragraph (d)(1) of this section if EPA had determined the opt-out was 
valid, the manufacturer may certify vehicles to any standards in this 
part applicable to vehicles certified in that model year and sell such 
vehicles without regard to the limitations contained in Sec. 86.1711. 
However, if the opt-out is finally determined to be invalid, the 
manufacturer will be liable for any failure to comply with Secs. 86.1710 
through 86.1712.
    (5) Upon the effective date of a manufacturer's opt-out under this 
paragraph (d), that manufacturer shall be subject to all requirements 
(except ZEV Mandates) that would apply to a manufacturer that had not 
opted into the National LEV program, including all applicable standards 
and other requirements promulgated under title II of the Clean Air Act 
(42 U.S.C. 7521 et seq.) and any state standards and other requirements 
(except ZEV Mandates) in effect pursuant to section 177 of the Clean Air 
Act (42 U.S.C. 7507). For any state Section 177 Program that allowed 
National LEV as a compliance alternative and was adopted at least two 
years before the effective date of a manufacturer's opt-out, a 
manufacturer waives its right under section 177 of the Clean Air Act to 
two years of lead time to the extent that the effective date of its opt-
out provides for less than two years of lead time and to the extent such 
a waiver is necessary. With respect to ZEV Mandates, the manufacturer 
will not be deemed to have waived its two-year lead time under section 
177 of the Clean Air Act. A manufacturer shall not be subject to any ZEV 
Mandates (except Existing ZEV Mandates) in OTC States until the model 
year (as defined in part 85, subpart X) that commences two years after 
the date of EPA's receipt of the manufacturer's opt-out notice.

[[Page 955]]

    (6) If a covered manufacturer opts out under this paragraph (d), any 
covered state that is not a violating state under paragraph (e), (f), 
(g) or (h) of this section may opt out within 90 calendar days of the 
date of either an EPA finding that the opt-out is valid, or a judicial 
ruling that a disputed opt-out is valid. The state's opt-out 
notification shall specify an effective date for the state's opt-out no 
earlier than two calendar years after the date of EPA's receipt of the 
state's opt-out notification and shall provide that the opt out is not 
effective for model years (as defined in part 85, subpart X) that 
commence prior to this effective date.
    (7) In a state that opts out pursuant to paragraph (d)(6) of this 
section, obligations under National LEV shall be unaffected for covered 
manufacturers until the effective date of the state's opt-out. Upon the 
effective date of the state's opt-out, in that state covered 
manufacturers shall comply with any state standards and other 
requirements in effect pursuant to section 177 of the Clean Air Act or, 
if such state standards are not in effect, with all requirements that 
would apply to a manufacturer that had not opted into the National LEV 
program, including all applicable standards and other requirements 
promulgated under title II of the Clean Air Act (42 U.S.C. 7521 et 
seq.).
    (8) In a state that has not opted out, obligations under National 
LEV shall be unaffected for covered manufacturers.
    (9)(i) The following are the emissions standards and requirements 
that, if revised, may provide covered manufacturers the opportunity to 
opt out pursuant to paragraph (d)(1) of this section:
    (A) The tailpipe emissions standards for NMOG, NOx, CO, 
HCHO, and PM specified in Sec. 86.1708(b) and (c) and Sec. 86.1709(b) 
and (c);
    (B) Fleet average NMOG standards and averaging, banking and trading 
provisions specified in Sec. 86.1710;

    (D) The compliance test procedure (Federal Test Procedure) as 
specified in subparts A and B of this part, as used for determining 
compliance with the exhaust emission standards specified in 
Sec. 86.1708(b) and (c) and Sec. 86.1709(b) and (c);
    (E) The compliance test fuel, as specified in Sec. 86.1771;
    (F) The definition of low volume manufacturer specified in 
Sec. 86.1702;
    (G) The on-board diagnostic system requirements specified in 
Sec. 86.1717;
    (H) The light-duty vehicle refueling emissions standards and 
provisions specified in Sec. 86.099-8(d), and the light-duty truck 
refueling emissions standards and provisions specified in Sec. 86.001-
9(d);
    (I) The cold temperature carbon monoxide standards and provisions 
for light-duty vehicles specified in Sec. 86.099-8(k), and for light 
light-duty trucks specified in Sec. 86.099-9(k);
    (J) The evaporative emissions standards and provisions for light-
duty vehicles specified in Sec. 86.099-8(b), and the evaporative 
emissions standards and provisions for light light-duty trucks specified 
in Sec. 86.099-9(b);
    (K) The reactivity adjustment factors and procedures specified in 
Sec. 86.1777(d);
    (L) The Supplemental Federal Test Procedure, standards and phase-in 
schedules specified in Secs. 86.1708(e), 86.1709(e), 86.127(f) and (g), 
86.129(e) and (f), 86.130(e), 86.131(f), 86.132(n) and (o), 86.158, 
86.159, 86.160, 86.161, 86.162, 86.163, 86.164, and Appendix I to this 
part, paragraphs (g) and (h).
    (ii) The standards and requirements listed in paragraphs 
(d)(9)(i)(A) through (d)(9)(i)(F) of this section are the ``Core Stable 
Standards''; the standards and requirements listed in paragraphs 
(d)(9)(i)(G) through (d)(9)(i)(L) of this section are the ``Non-Core 
Stable Standards.''
    (iii) The following types of revisions to the Stable Standards 
listed in paragraph (d)(9)(i) of this section do not provide covered 
manufacturers the right to opt out of the National LEV program:
    (A) Revisions to which covered manufacturers do not object;
    (B) Revisions to a Non-Core Stable Standard that do not increase the 
overall stringency of the standard or requirement;
    (C) Revisions to a Non-Core Stable Standard that harmonize the 
standard or requirement with the comparable

[[Page 956]]

California standard or requirement for the same model year (even if the 
harmonization increases the stringency of the standard or requirement), 
provided that, if the relevant California factor is raised to 1.0 or 
higher, EPA can only raise to 1.0 any of the reactivity adjustment 
factors specified in 86.1777 applicable to gasoline meeting the 
specifications of 86.1771(a)(1); and
    (D) Revisions to cold temperature carbon monoxide standards and 
provisions for light-duty vehicles (as specified in Sec. 86.099-8(k)) 
and for light light-duty trucks (as specified in Sec. 86.099-9(k)) that 
are effective after model year 2000.
    (10) Promulgation by EPA of mandatory tailpipe standards and other 
related requirements effective model year 2004 or later does not provide 
an opportunity to opt out of the National LEV program.
    (e) Conditions allowing manufacturer opt-outs--state Section 177 
Program that does not allow National LEV as a compliance alternative. A 
covered manufacturer may opt out of National LEV if a covered state 
takes final action such that it has in its regulations or state law a 
state Section 177 Program and/or a ZEV Mandate (except in a state with 
an Existing ZEV Mandate), that does not allow National LEV as a 
compliance alternative for the duration of the state's commitment to the 
National LEV program. The state's commitment to National LEV extends 
until model year 2006. If, no later than December 15, 2000, EPA has not 
adopted standards at least as stringent as the National LEV standards 
provided in 40 CFR part 86, subpart R that apply to new motor vehicles 
in model year 2004, 2005 or 2006, the state's commitment to National LEV 
only extends until model year 2004. A manufacturer could opt out based 
on this condition even if the state regulations or law are contrary to 
an approved SIP revision committing the state to National LEV pursuant 
to Sec. 86.1705(g). For purposes of this paragraph (e), such a state 
shall be called the ``violating state.''
    (1) A covered manufacturer may opt out any time after the violating 
state takes such final action, provided that the violating state has not 
withdrawn or otherwise nullified the relevant final action prior to 
EPA's receipt of the opt-out notification. An opt-out under this 
paragraph (e) shall be effective no earlier than the model year named 
for the calendar year following the calendar year in which EPA receives 
the manufacturer's opt-out notification.
    (2) As of the model year named for the calendar year following the 
calendar year of the violating state's final action, the violating state 
shall no longer be included in the applicable trading region for 
purposes of calculating covered manufacturers' compliance with the fleet 
average NMOG standards under Sec. 86.1710, and Sec. 86.1711 shall no 
longer apply to vehicles sold in the violating state. Beginning in that 
model year and until the violating state's requirements become effective 
pursuant to sections 110(l) and 177 of the Clean Air Act or until the 
date specified in the following sentence, whichever is earlier, the 
National LEV program allows covered manufacturers to certify and produce 
for sale vehicles meeting the exhaust emission standards of Sec. 86.096-
8(a)(1)(i) and subsequent model year provisions or Sec. 86.097-
9(a)(1)(i) and subsequent model year provisions in the violating state. 
If the violating state withdraws or otherwise nullifies the relevant 
violating final action, vehicles sold in that state shall count towards 
the covered manufacturers' fleet NMOG standards under Sec. 86.1710 and 
be subject to Sec. 86.1711 as of the model year named for the second 
calendar year following the calendar year in which the violating state 
took the final action nullifying or withdrawing the final violating 
action, or as of the model year named for the fourth calendar year 
following the calendar year in which the violating state took the 
violating final action, whichever is later. The two-year lead time 
required by section 177 of the Clean Air Act for the state Section 177 
Program or ZEV Mandate shall run from the date of the violating final 
action. Notwithstanding an earlier effective date of a manufacturer's 
opt-out under this paragraph (e), the manufacturer's opt-out is not 
effective in the violating state until the two-year lead time for the 
violating state's program has passed (which shall run from the date of 
the violating final action).

[[Page 957]]

For model years for which vehicles sold in the violating state do not 
count towards the National LEV NMOG average, in calculating emissions 
reductions from new motor vehicles creditable for state implementation 
plan requirements, the violating state's emissions reductions shall be 
based on the emission standards of Secs. 86.096--8(a)(1)(i), 86.097-
9(a)(1)(i) and subsequent model year provisions, and shall not be based 
on the National LEV standards, provided that vehicles sold in the 
violating state are certified to Tier 1 levels when sold in that state.
    (3) Upon the effective date of a manufacturer's opt-out under this 
paragraph (e) in any covered state that is not a violating state under 
this paragraph (e), that manufacturer shall be subject to all 
requirements (except ZEV Mandates) that would apply to a manufacturer 
that had not opted into the National LEV program, including all 
applicable standards and other requirements promulgated under title II 
of the Clean Air Act and any state standards and other requirements 
(except ZEV Mandates) in effect pursuant to section 177 of the Clean Air 
Act (42 U.S.C. 7507). For any state Section 177 Program that allowed 
National LEV as a compliance alternative and was adopted by a non-
violating state at least two years before the effective date of a 
manufacturer's opt-out, a manufacturer waives its right under section 
177 of the Clean Air Act to two years of lead time to the extent that 
the effective date of its opt-out provides for less than two years of 
lead time and to the extent such a waiver is necessary. With respect to 
ZEV Mandates, the manufacturer will not be deemed to have waived its 
two-year lead time under section 177 of the Clean Air Act. A 
manufacturer shall not be subject to any ZEV Mandates (except Existing 
ZEV Mandates) in OTC States until the model year (as defined in part 85, 
subpart X) that commences two years after the date of EPA's receipt of 
the manufacturer's opt-out notice.
    (4) If a covered manufacturer opts out under this paragraph (e), any 
covered state that is not a violating state under paragraph (e), (f), 
(g) or (h) of this section may opt out within 90 calendar days of EPA's 
receipt of the manufacturer's opt-out notification. The state's opt-out 
notification shall specify an effective date for the state's opt-out no 
earlier than two calendar years after the date of EPA's receipt of the 
state's opt-out notification and shall provide that the opt-out is not 
effective for model years (as defined in part 85, subpart X), that 
commence prior to this effective date.
    (5) In a non-violating state that opts out pursuant to paragraph 
(e)(4) of this section, obligations under National LEV shall be 
unaffected for covered manufacturers until the effective date of the 
non-violating state's opt-out. Upon the effective date of the state's 
opt-out, in that state covered manufacturers shall comply with any state 
standards and other requirements in effect pursuant to section 177 of 
the Clean Air Act or, if such state standards are not in effect, with 
all requirements that would apply to a manufacturer that had not opted 
into the National LEV program, including all applicable standards and 
other requirements promulgated under title II of the Clean Air Act (42 
U.S.C. 7521 et seq.).
    (6) In a non-violating state that has not opted out, obligations 
under National LEV shall be unaffected for covered manufacturers.
    (f) Conditions allowing manufacturer opt-outs--failure to submit SIP 
revision. A covered manufacturer may opt out of National LEV if a 
covered state fails to submit a National LEV SIP revision on the date 
specified in Sec. 86.1705(g). For purposes of this paragraph (f), such a 
state shall be called the ``violating state.''
    (1) A covered manufacturer may opt out any time after the violating 
state misses the deadline for its National LEV SIP revision, provided 
that EPA has not received a National LEV SIP revision from the violating 
state prior to EPA's receipt of the manufacturer's opt-out notification. 
If a manufacturer opts out within 180 calendar days from the deadline 
for the state to submit its National LEV SIP revision, the opt-out must 
be conditioned on the state not submitting a National LEV SIP revision 
within 180 calendar days from the deadline for such SIP revision. If the

[[Page 958]]

state submits such a SIP revision within the 180-day period, any 
manufacturer opt-outs under this paragraph (f) would be invalidated and 
would not come into effect. An opt-out under this paragraph (f) shall be 
effective no earlier than model year 2000 (or model year 2001 if the 
violating state is the District of Columbia, New Hampshire, Delaware, or 
Virginia) or the model year named for the calendar year following the 
calendar year in which EPA receives the opt-out notification, whichever 
is later.
    (2) For a manufacturer that opts out under this paragraph (f), as of 
model year 2000 (or model year 2001 if the violating state is the 
District of Columbia, New Hampshire, Delaware, or Virginia) or the model 
year named for the calendar year following the calendar year in which 
EPA receives the opt-out notification, whichever is later, the violating 
state shall no longer be included in the applicable trading region for 
purposes of calculating that manufacturer's compliance with the fleet 
average NMOG standards under Sec. 86.1710 and the manufacturer does not 
have to comply with Sec. 86.1711 for vehicles sold in the violating 
state. Beginning in that model year and until the manufacturer's opt-out 
becomes effective, the National LEV program allows a manufacturer that 
has opted out under this paragraph (f) to certify and produce for sale 
vehicles meeting the exhaust emission standards of Sec. 86.096-
8(a)(1)(i) and subsequent model year provisions or Sec. 86.097-
9(a)(1)(i) and subsequent model year provisions in the violating state. 
For model years in which vehicles sold in the violating state do not 
count towards the National LEV NMOG average, in calculating emission 
reductions from new motor vehicles creditable for state implementation 
plan requirements, the violating state's emissions reductions shall be 
based on the emissions standards of Secs. 86.096-8(a)(1)(i), 86.097-
9(a)(1)(i), and subsequent model year provisions, and shall not be based 
on the National LEV standards, provided that vehicles sold in the 
violating state are certified to Tier 1 levels when sold in that state. 
National LEV obligations in the violating state remain unchanged for 
those manufacturers that do not opt out based on this condition.
    (3) Upon the effective date of a manufacturer's opt-out under this 
paragraph (f), in any covered state that is not a violating state under 
this paragraph (f), that manufacturer shall be subject to all 
requirements (except ZEV Mandates) that would apply to a manufacturer 
that had not opted into the National LEV program, including all 
applicable standards and other requirements promulgated under title II 
of the Clean Air Act and any state standards and other requirements 
(except ZEV Mandates) in effect pursuant to section 177 of the Clean Air 
Act (42 U.S.C. 7507). For any state Section 177 Program that allowed 
National LEV as a compliance alternative and was adopted by a non-
violating state at least two years before the effective date of a 
manufacturer's opt-out, a manufacturer waives its right under section 
177 of the Clean Air Act to two years of lead time to the extent that 
the effective date of its opt-out provides for less than two years of 
lead time and to the extent such a waiver is necessary. With respect to 
ZEV Mandates, the manufacturer will not be deemed to have waived its 
two-year lead time under section 177 of the Clean Air Act. A 
manufacturer shall not be subject to any ZEV Mandates (except Existing 
ZEV Mandates) in OTC States until the model year (as defined in part 85, 
subpart X) that commences two years after the date of EPA's receipt of 
the manufacturer's opt-out notice.
    (4) If a covered manufacturer opts out under this paragraph (f), any 
covered state that is not a violating state under paragraph (e), (f), 
(g) or (h) of this section may opt out within 90 calendar days of EPA's 
receipt of the manufacturer's opt-out notification. The state's opt-out 
notification shall specify an effective date for the state's opt-out no 
earlier than two calendar years after the date of EPA's receipt of the 
state's opt-out notification and shall provide that the opt-out is not 
effective for model years (as defined in part 85, subpart X), that 
commence prior to this effective date.
    (5) In a non-violating state that opts out pursuant to paragraph 
(f)(4) of this section, obligations under National

[[Page 959]]

LEV shall be unaffected for covered manufacturers until the effective 
date of the non-violating state's opt-out. Upon the effective date of 
the state's opt-out, in that state covered manufacturers shall comply 
with any state standards and other requirements in effect pursuant to 
section 177 of the Clean Air Act or, if such state standards are not in 
effect, with all requirements that would apply to a manufacturer that 
had not opted into the National LEV program, including all applicable 
standards and other requirements promulgated under title II of the Clean 
Air Act (42 U.S.C. 7521 et seq.).
    (6) In a non-violating state that has not opted out, obligations 
under National LEV shall be unaffected for covered manufacturers.
    (g) Conditions allowing manufacturer opt-outs--inadequate National 
LEV SIP submission. A covered manufacturer may opt out of National LEV 
if EPA disapproves a covered state's National LEV SIP submission or 
finds that it fails to meet the requirements for a National LEV SIP 
revision set forth in Sec. 86.1705(g) or if EPA has not taken final 
action regarding such a SIP submission and more than one year has passed 
since such SIP submission was submitted to EPA. For purposes of this 
paragraph (g), such a state shall be called the ``violating state.''
    (1) A covered manufacturer may opt out any time after EPA has 
disapproved a state's National LEV SIP submission or found that it does 
not meet the requirements of Sec. 86.1705(g), provided that EPA has not 
subsequently approved a revised National LEV SIP revision from that 
state and found that the SIP revision meets the requirements of 
Sec. 86.1705(g). A covered manufacturer may also opt out any time after 
one year EPA's receipt of a state's National LEV SIP submission, 
provided that EPA has not approved the revision or has not found that 
the SIP revision meets the requirements of Sec. 86.1705(g). An opt-out 
under this condition shall be effective no earlier than the model year 
named for the calendar year following the calendar year in which the EPA 
receives the manufacturer's opt-out notification.
    (2) For a manufacturer that opts out under this paragraph (g), as of 
the model year named for the calendar year following the calendar year 
in which EPA receives the opt-out notification, the violating state 
shall no longer be included in the applicable trading region for 
purposes of calculating that manufacturer's compliance with the fleet 
average NMOG standards under Sec. 86.1710 and the manufacturer does not 
have to comply with Sec. 86.1711 for vehicles sold in the violating 
state. Beginning in that model year and until the manufacturer's opt-out 
becomes effective, the National LEV program allows a manufacturer that 
has opted out under this paragraph (g) to certify and produce for sale 
vehicles meeting the exhaust emission standards of Sec. 86.096-
8(a)(1)(i) and subsequent model year provisions or Sec. 86.097-
9(a)(1)(i) and subsequent model year provisions in the violating state. 
For model years in which vehicles sold in the violating state do not 
count towards the National LEV NMOG average, in calculating emission 
reductions from new motor vehicles creditable for state implementation 
plan requirements, the violating state's emissions reductions shall be 
based on the emissions standards of Secs. 86.096-8(a)(1)(i), 86.097-
9(a)(1)(i), and subsequent model year provisions, and shall not be based 
on the National LEV standards, provided that vehicles sold in the 
violating state are certified to Tier 1 levels when sold in that state. 
National LEV obligations in the violating state remain unchanged for 
those manufacturers that do not opt out based on this condition.
    (3) Upon the effective date of a manufacturer's opt-out under this 
paragraph (g), in any covered state that is not a violating state under 
this paragraph (g), that manufacturer shall be subject to all 
requirements (except ZEV Mandates) that would apply to a manufacturer 
that had not opted into the National LEV program, including all 
applicable standards and other requirements promulgated under title II 
of the Clean Air Act and any state standards and other requirements 
(except ZEV Mandates) in effect pursuant to section 177 of the Clean Air 
Act (42 U.S.C. 7507). For any state Section 177 Program that allowed 
National LEV as a compliance alternative and was adopted by a non-

[[Page 960]]

violating state at least two years before the effective date of a 
manufacturer's opt-out, a manufacturer waives its right under section 
177 of the Clean Air Act to two years of lead time to the extent that 
the effective date of its opt-out provides for less than two years of 
lead time and to the extent such a waiver is necessary. With respect to 
ZEV Mandates, the manufacturer will not be deemed to have waived its 
two-year lead time under section 177 of the Clean Air Act. A 
manufacturer shall not be subject to any ZEV Mandates (except Existing 
ZEV Mandates) in OTC States until the model year (as defined in part 85, 
subpart X) that commences two years after the date of EPA's receipt of 
the manufacturer's opt-out notice.
    (4) If a covered manufacturer opts out under this paragraph (g), any 
covered state that is not a violating state under paragraph (e), (f), 
(g) or (h) of this section may opt out within 90 calendar days of EPA's 
receipt of the manufacturer's opt-out notification. The state's opt-out 
notification shall specify an effective date for the state's opt-out 
that is no earlier than two calendar years after the date of EPA's 
receipt of the state's opt-out notification and shall provide that the 
opt-out is not effective for model years (as defined in part 85, subpart 
X that commence prior to this effective date.
    (5) In a non-violating state that opts out pursuant to paragraph 
(g)(4) of this section, obligations under National LEV shall be 
unaffected for covered manufacturers until the effective date of the 
non-violating state's opt-out. Upon the effective date of the state's 
opt-out, in that state covered manufacturers shall comply with any state 
standards and other requirements in effect pursuant to section 177 of 
the Clean Air Act or, if such state standards are not in effect, with 
all requirements that would apply to a manufacturer that had not opted 
into the National LEV program, including all applicable standards and 
other requirements promulgated under title II of the Clean Air Act (42 
U.S.C. 7521 et seq.).
    (6) In a non-violating state that has not opted out, obligations 
under National LEV shall be unaffected for covered manufacturers.
    (h) Conditions allowing manufacturer opt-outs--adoption of a ZEV 
Mandate. A covered manufacturer to which a ZEV Mandate might apply may 
opt out of National LEV if a covered state without an Existing ZEV 
Mandate takes final action such that it has in its regulations or state 
law a ZEV Mandate that allows National LEV as a compliance alternative 
that would be effective during the state's commitment to National LEV. 
For purposes of this paragraph (h), such a state shall be called the 
``violating state.''
    (1) A covered manufacturer may opt out any time after the violating 
state takes the final action, provided that the violating state has not 
withdrawn or otherwise nullified the relevant final action prior to 
EPA's receipt of the opt-out notification. An opt-out under this opt-out 
condition shall be effective no earlier than the model year named for 
the calendar year following the calendar year in which EPA receives the 
manufacturer's opt-out notification.
    (2) For a manufacturer that opts out under this paragraph (h), as of 
the model year named for the calendar year following the calendar year 
in which EPA receives the opt-out notification, the violating state 
shall no longer be included in the applicable trading region for 
purposes of calculating that manufacturer's compliance with the fleet 
average NMOG standards under Sec. 86.1710 and the manufacturer does not 
have to comply with Sec. 86.1711 for vehicles sold in the violating 
state. Beginning in that model year and until the manufacturer's opt-out 
becomes effective, the National LEV program allows a manufacturer that 
has opted out under this paragraph (h) to certify and produce for sale 
vehicles meeting the exhaust emission standards of Sec. 86.096-
8(a)(1)(i) and subsequent model year provisions or Sec. 86.097-
9(a)(1)(i) and subsequent model year provisions in the violating state. 
For model years in which vehicles sold in the violating state do not 
count towards the National LEV NMOG average, in calculating emission 
reductions from new motor vehicles creditable for state implementation 
plan requirements, the

[[Page 961]]

violating state's emissions reductions shall be based on the emissions 
standards of Secs. 86.096-8(a)(1)(i), 86.097-9(a)(1)(i), and subsequent 
model year provisions, and shall not be based on the National LEV 
standards, provided that vehicles sold in the violating state are 
certified to Tier 1 levels when sold in that state. National LEV 
obligations in the violating state remain unchanged for those 
manufacturers that do not opt out based on this condition.
    (3) Upon the effective date of a manufacturer's opt-out under this 
paragraph (h), in any covered state that is not a violating state under 
this paragraph (h), that manufacturer shall be subject to all 
requirements (except ZEV Mandates) that would apply to a manufacturer 
that had not opted into the National LEV program, including all 
applicable standards and other requirements promulgated under title II 
of the Clean Air Act and any state standards and other requirements 
(except ZEV Mandates) in effect pursuant to section 177 of the Clean Air 
Act (42 U.S.C. 7507). For any state Section 177 Program that allowed 
National LEV as a compliance alternative and was adopted by a non-
violating state at least two years before the effective date of a 
manufacturer's opt-out, a manufacturer waives its right under section 
177 of the Clean Air Act to two years of lead time to the extent that 
the effective date of its opt-out provides for less than two years of 
lead time and to the extent such a waiver is necessary. With respect to 
ZEV Mandates, the manufacturer will not be deemed to have waived its 
two-year lead time under section 177 of the Clean Air Act. A 
manufacturer shall not be subject to any ZEV Mandates (except Existing 
ZEV Mandates) in OTC States until the model year (as defined in part 85, 
subpart X) that commences two years after the date of EPA's receipt of 
the manufacturer's opt-out notice.
    (4) If a covered manufacturer opts out under this paragraph (h), any 
covered state that is not a violating state under paragraph (e), (f), 
(g) or (h) of this section may opt out within 90 calendar days of EPA's 
receipt of the manufacturer's opt-out notification. The state's opt-out 
notification shall specify an effective date for the state's opt-out 
that is no earlier than two calendar years after the date of EPA's 
receipt of the state's opt-out notification and shall provide that the 
opt-out is not effective for model years (as defined in part 85, subpart 
X) that commence prior to this effective date.
    (5) In a non-violating state that opts out pursuant to paragraph 
(h)(4) of this section, obligations under National LEV shall be 
unaffected for covered manufacturers until the effective date of the 
non-violating state's opt-out. Upon the effective date of the state's 
opt-out, in that state covered manufacturers shall comply with any state 
standards and other requirements in effect pursuant to section 177 of 
the Clean Air Act or, if such state standards are not in effect, with 
all requirements that would apply to a manufacturer that had not opted 
into the National LEV program, including all applicable standards and 
other requirements promulgated under title II of the Clean Air Act (42 
U.S.C. 7521 et seq.).
    (6) In a non-violating state that has not opted out, obligations 
under National LEV shall be unaffected for covered manufacturers.
    (i) Conditions allowing manufacturer opt-outs--EPA failure to 
consider in-use fuel issues. A covered manufacturer may opt out of 
National LEV if EPA does not meet its obligations related to fuel sulfur 
effects, as those obligations are set forth in paragraph (i)(7) of this 
section.
    (1) A manufacturer may request in writing that EPA consider taking a 
specific action with regard to a fuel sulfur effect described in 
paragraph (i)(7) of this section. The request must identify the alleged 
fuel sulfur related problem, demonstrate that the problem exists and is 
caused by in-use fuel sulfur levels, ask EPA to consider taking a 
specific action, and demonstrate the emissions impact of the requested 
change. Within 60 calendar days of EPA's receipt of the manufacturer's 
request, EPA must consider the manufacturer's request and respond to it 
in writing, stating the Agency's decision and explaining the basis for 
the decision. The date of EPA's response is the date the response is 
signed.

[[Page 962]]

    (2) If EPA fails to respond to a manufacturer's request within the 
time provided, the covered manufacturer that submitted the request may 
opt out within 180 calendar days of the deadline for the EPA response. 
(If such a manufacturer opts out, other manufacturers that did not 
submit requests may also opt out pursuant to paragraph (j) of this 
section.) An opt-out notification under this paragraph (i) is not valid 
if received by EPA after EPA responds to the request, even if EPA 
responds after the expiration of the 60-day EPA deadline. An opt-out 
under this paragraph (i) shall be effective no earlier than the model 
year named for the calendar year following the calendar year in which 
EPA receives the manufacturer's opt-out notification.
    (3) Upon the effective date of a manufacturer's opt-out under this 
paragraph (i), the manufacturer shall be subject to all requirements 
(except ZEV Mandates) that would apply to a manufacturer that had not 
opted into the National LEV program, including all applicable standards 
and other requirements promulgated under title II of the Clean Air Act 
(42 U.S.C. 7521 et seq.) and any state standards and other requirements 
(except ZEV Mandates) in effect pursuant to section 177 of the Clean Air 
Act (42 U.S.C. 7507). For any state Section 177 Program that allowed 
National LEV as a compliance alternative and was adopted at least two 
years before the effective date of a manufacturer's opt-out, a 
manufacturer waives its right under section 177 of the Clean Air Act to 
two years of lead time to the extent that the effective date of its opt-
out provides for less than two years of lead time and to the extent such 
a waiver is necessary. With respect to ZEV Mandates, the manufacturer 
will not be deemed to have waived its two-year lead time under section 
177 of the Clean Air Act. A manufacturer shall not be subject to any ZEV 
Mandates (except Existing ZEV Mandates) in OTC States until the model 
year (as defined in part 85, subpart X) that commences two years after 
the date of EPA's receipt of the manufacturer's opt-out notice.
    (4) If a covered manufacturer opts out under this paragraph (i), any 
covered state that is not a violating state under paragraph (e), (f), 
(g) or (h) of this section may opt out within 90 calendar days of EPA's 
receipt of the manufacturer's opt-out notification. The state's opt-out 
notification shall specify an effective date for the state's opt-out 
that is no earlier than two calendar years after the date of EPA's 
receipt of the state's opt-out notification and shall provide that the 
opt out is not effective for model years (as defined in part 85, subpart 
X), that commence prior to this effective date.
    (5) In a state that opts out pursuant to paragraph (i)(4) of this 
section, obligations under National LEV shall be unaffected for covered 
manufacturers until the effective date of the state's opt-out. Upon the 
effective date of the state's opt-out, in that state covered 
manufacturers shall comply with any state standards and other 
requirements in effect pursuant to section 177 of the Clean Air Act or, 
if such state standards are not in effect, with all requirements that 
would apply to a manufacturer that had not opted into the National LEV 
program, including all applicable standards and other requirements 
promulgated under title II of the Clean Air Act (42 U.S.C. 7521 et 
seq.).
    (6) In a state that has not opted out, obligations under National 
LEV shall be unaffected for covered manufacturers.
    (7) Following are the actions that a manufacturer may request EPA to 
consider under paragraph (i)(1) of this section:
    (i) During the certification process and upon a manufacturer's 
written request, EPA will consider allowing the use of an on-board 
diagnostic system (as required by Sec. 86.1717), that functions properly 
on low sulfur gasoline, but indicates sulfur-induced passes when exposed 
to high sulfur gasoline.
    (ii) Upon a manufacturer's written request, if vehicles exhibit 
illuminations of the emission control diagnostic system malfunction 
indicator light (as defined in Sec. 86.094-17(c)) due to high sulfur 
gasoline, EPA will consider allowing modifications to such vehicles on a 
case-by-case basis so as to eliminate the sulfur-induced illumination.
    (iii) Upon a manufacturer's written request, prior to in-use 
testing, that presents information to EPA regarding

[[Page 963]]

pre-conditioning procedures designed solely to remove the effects of 
high sulfur from currently available gasoline, EPA will consider 
allowing such procedures on a case-by-case basis.
    (j) Conditions allowing manufacturer opt-outs--OTC State or 
manufacturer opts out. A covered manufacturer may opt out of National 
LEV if a covered state or another covered manufacturer opts out of the 
National LEV program pursuant to this section.
    (1) If a covered manufacturer's opt-out under this paragraph (j) is 
based on a covered state's or covered manufacturer's opt-out under 
paragraph (e), (f), (g), (h), (i), (j) or (k) of this section, the 
manufacturer may opt out within 90 calendar days of EPA's receipt of the 
underlying state's or manufacturer's opt-out notification. If a 
manufacturer's opt-out under this paragraph (j) is based on a 
manufacturer's opt-out under paragraph (d) of this section, the 
manufacturer may only opt out within 90 calendar days of the date of 
either an EPA finding or a judicial ruling that the opt-out under 
paragraph (d) of this section is valid. An opt-out under this paragraph 
(j) shall be effective no earlier than the model year named for the 
calendar year following the calendar year in which the EPA receives the 
manufacturer's opt-out notification.
    (2) Upon the effective date of a manufacturer's opt-out under this 
paragraph (j), in any covered state that manufacturer shall be subject 
to all requirements (except ZEV Mandates) that would apply to a 
manufacturer that had not opted into National LEV, including all 
applicable standards and other requirements promulgated under title II 
of the Clean Air Act and any state standards and other requirements 
(except ZEV Mandates) in effect pursuant to section 177 of the Clean Air 
Act (42 U.S.C. 7507). For any state Section 177 Program that allowed 
National LEV as a compliance alternative and was adopted at least two 
years before the effective date of a manufacturer's opt-out, a 
manufacturer waives its right under section 177 of the Clean Air Act to 
two years of lead time to the extent that the effective date of its opt-
out provides for less than two years of lead time and to the extent such 
a waiver is necessary. With respect to ZEV Mandates, the manufacturer 
will not be deemed to have waived its two-year lead time under section 
177 of the Clean Air Act. A manufacturer shall not be subject to any ZEV 
Mandates (except Existing ZEV Mandates) in OTC States until the model 
year (as defined in part 85, subpart X) that commences two years after 
the date of EPA's receipt of the manufacturer's opt-out notice.
    (3) If a covered manufacturer opts out under this paragraph (j), any 
covered state that is not a violating state under paragraph (e), (f), 
(g) or (h) of this section may opt out within 90 calendar days of EPA's 
receipt of the manufacturer's opt-out notification. The state's opt-out 
notification shall specify an effective date for the state's opt-out no 
earlier than two calendar years after the date of EPA's receipt of the 
state's opt-out notification and shall provide that the opt-out is not 
effective for model years (as defined in part 85, subpart X), that 
commence prior to this effective date.
    (4) In a state that opts out pursuant to paragraph (j)(3) of this 
section, obligations under National LEV shall be unaffected for covered 
manufacturers until the effective date of the state's opt-out. Upon the 
effective date of the state's opt-out, in that state covered 
manufacturers shall comply with any state standards and other 
requirements in effect pursuant to section 177 of the Clean Air Act or, 
if such state standards are not in effect, with all requirements that 
would apply to a manufacturer that had not opted into the National LEV 
program, including all applicable standards and other requirements 
promulgated under title II of the Clean Air Act (42 U.S.C. 7521 et 
seq.).
    (5) In a state that has not opted out, obligations under National 
LEV remain unaffected for covered manufacturers.
    (k) Conditions allowing OTC State opt-outs--EPA finding of 
inequivalency. Any covered state may opt out of National LEV if EPA 
determines that National LEV would not produce (or is not producing) 
emissions reductions at least equivalent to the OTC State Section 177 
Programs.

[[Page 964]]

    (1) At any time during National LEV, a covered state may request in 
writing that EPA reevaluate its initial equivalency determination (of 
December 16, 1997) that National LEV would produce emissions reductions 
at least equivalent to the OTC State Section 177 Programs that would be 
operative in the absence of National LEV. Within 180 calendar days of 
receipt of the state's request, EPA must take final agency action to 
determine whether the determination that National LEV will produce at 
least equivalent emission reductions to OTC State Section 177 Program is 
still valid. These EPA determinations are not rules, but are nationally 
applicable final agency actions subject to judicial review pursuant to 
section 307(b) of the Clean Air Act (42 U.S.C. 7607(b)). In reevaluating 
its equivalency determination, EPA shall use the same Mobile emission 
factor model and the same inputs and assumptions (including vehicle 
miles traveled, MOBILE5a model inputs, inspection and maintenance 
programs, reformulated gasoline, and permanent migration effects) as 
used in the initial determination, with the following exceptions:
    (i) In modeling the emission reductions from National LEV, EPA shall 
use any revised federal new motor vehicle standard or other requirement 
in place of the standard or other requirement as it existed when EPA 
made its initial determination; and, to the extent that the modeling 
reflects EPA's implementation of federal new motor vehicle standards or 
other requirements, EPA shall take any changes in such implementation 
into account.
    (ii) In modeling the emissions reductions that would be achieved 
through the OTC State Section 177 Programs that would apply in the 
absence of National LEV, EPA shall take into account all Section 177 
Programs adopted by OTC States (including programs that allow National 
LEV as a compliance alternative) that had been adopted subsequent to 
EPA's initial equivalency determination. In accounting for the emissions 
effect of OTC State Section 177 Programs, EPA shall continue to assume 
that all OTC State Section 177 Programs have the same substantive 
requirements used in EPA's initial equivalency determination and shall 
not model any effects of state regulation of medium-duty vehicles (as 
defined in the California Code of Regulations, Title 13, Division 3, 
Chapter 1, Article 1, Section 1900).
    (2) A covered state may opt out of National LEV within 90 calendar 
days of a final EPA determination pursuant to paragraph (k)(1) of this 
section that National LEV would not produce (or is not producing) 
emissions reductions at least equivalent to OTC State Section 177 
Programs. The state's opt-out notification shall specify an effective 
date for the state's opt-out that is no earlier than two calendar years 
after the date of EPA's receipt of the state's opt-out notification and 
shall provide that the opt-out is not effective for model years (as 
defined in part 85, subpart X), that commence prior to this effective 
date.
    (3) If a covered state opts out based on this condition, a covered 
manufacturer may opt out of National LEV pursuant to paragraph (j) of 
this section.
    (4) In a state that opts out pursuant to paragraph (k)(1) of this 
section, obligations under National LEV shall be unaffected for covered 
manufacturers until the effective date of that state's opt-out. Upon the 
effective date of the state's opt-out, in that state covered 
manufacturers shall comply with any state standards and other 
requirements in effect pursuant to section 177 of the Clean Air Act or, 
if such state standards and other requirements are not in effect, with 
all requirements that would apply to a manufacturer that had not opted 
into the National LEV program, including all applicable standards and 
other requirements promulgated under title II of the Clean Air Act (42 
U.S.C. 7521 et seq.).

    (d) NMOG measurement and reactivity adjustment. NMOG emissions shall 
be measured in accordance with Chapter 5 of the California Regulatory 
Requirements Applicable to the National Low Emission Vehicle Program 
(October,

[[Page 967]]

1996). These requirements are incorporated by reference (see Sec. 86.1). 
NMOG emissions shall be compared to the applicable NMOG emissions 
certification or in-use standard according to the following calculation 
procedures:
    (1) For TLEVs, LEVs, and ULEVs designed to operate on any fuel other 
than conventional gasoline, and for flexible-fuel and dual-fuel TLEVs, 
LEVs, and ULEVs when operated on a fuel other than gasoline as specified 
in Sec. 86.1771, manufacturers shall multiply NMOG exhaust mass emission 
levels by the applicable reactivity adjustment factor set forth in 
Sec. 86.1777, or established by the Administrator pursuant to 
Sec. 86.1777. The product of the NMOG exhaust emission levels and the 
reactivity adjustment factor shall be compared to the applicable 
certification or in-use exhaust NMOG mass emission standards established 
for the particular vehicle emission category to determine compliance.
    (2) In addition to multiplying the exhaust NMOG mass emission levels 
by the applicable reactivity adjustment factor, TLEV, LEV, or ULEV 
natural gas vehicles shall multiply the exhaust methane mass emission 
level by the applicable methane reactivity adjustment factor in 
Sec. 86.1777 or established by the Administrator pursuant to 
Sec. 86.1777. The reactivity-adjusted NMOG value shall be added to the 
reactivity-adjusted methane value and then the sum shall be compared to 
the applicable certification or in-use exhaust NMOG mass emission 
standards established for the particular vehicle emission category to 
determine compliance.
    (3) The exhaust NMOG mass emission levels for fuel-flexible and 
dual-fuel vehicles when operating on gasoline as specified in 
Sec. 86.1771 shall not be multiplied by a reactivity adjustment factor.
    (e) SFTP Standards. Exhaust emissions from 2001 and later model year 
light-duty vehicles shall meet the additional SFTP standards in this 
paragraph (e) according to the implementation schedules in this 
paragraph (e). The standards set forth in this paragraph (e) refer to 
exhaust emissions emitted over the Supplemental Federal Test Procedure 
(SFTP) as set forth in subpart B of this part and collected and 
calculated in accordance with those procedures.
    (1) Tier 1 vehicles and TLEVs. The SFTP exhaust emission levels from 
new 2001 and subsequent model year light-duty vehicles certified to the 
exhaust emission standards in Sec. 86.099-8(a)(1)(i) and subsequent 
model year provisions and light-duty vehicles certified as TLEVs shall 
not exceed the standards in Table R99-7.1, according to the 
implementation schedule in this paragraph (e)(1).

standards in Sec. 86.099-8(a)(1)(i) and subsequent model year 
provisions, and light light-duty trucks certified to the exhaust 
emission standards in Sec. 86.099-9(a)(1)(i) and subsequent model year 
provisions, and light-duty vehicles and light light-duty trucks 
certified as TLEVs. As an option, a manufacturer may elect to have its 
total light-duty vehicle and light light-duty truck fleet defined, for 
the purposes of this paragraph (e)(1)(ii) only, as the total projected 
number of the manufacturer's light-duty vehicles and light light-duty 
trucks, other than zero emission vehicles, certified and sold in the 
United States.
    (A) In 2004 and subsequent model years, manufacturers of light-duty 
vehicles and light light-duty trucks, including low volume 
manufacturers, shall certify 100 percent of their light-duty vehicle and 
light light-duty truck fleet to the standards in this paragraph (e)(l).
    (B) [Reserved]
    (iii) Phase-in requirements--vehicles sold outside California. 
Light-duty vehicles and light light-duty trucks sold outside California 
shall be certified to the applicable emission standards in this 
paragraph (e) if a vehicle has been certifed to the emission standards 
in this paragraph (e) for sale in California and is identical in the 
following respects:
    (A) Vehicle manufacturer;
    (B) Vehicle make and model;
    (C) Cylinder block configuration (L-6, V-8, and so forth);
    (D) Displacement;
    (E) Combustion cycle;
    (F) Transmission class; and
    (G) Axle ratio.
    (2) LEVs and ULEVs. The SFTP standards in this paragraph (e)(2) 
represent the maximum SFTP exhaust emissions at 4,000 miles +/-250 miles 
or at the mileage determined by the manufacturer for emission data 
vehicles in accordance with Sec. 86.1726. The SFTP exhaust emission 
levels from new 2001 and subsequent model year light-duty vehicle LEVs 
and ULEVs shall not exceed the standards in the following table, 
according to the implementation schedule in this paragraph (e)(2)(i).

    (i) Phase-in requirements--2001 to 2003 model years. For the 
purposes of this paragraph (e)(2)(i) only, each manufacturer's light-
duty vehicle and light light-duty truck fleet shall be defined as the 
total projected number of light-duty vehicles and light light-duty 
trucks certified as LEVs and ULEVs sold in California.
    (A) Manufacturers of light-duty vehicles and light light-duty 
trucks, except low volume manufacturers, shall certify to the standards 
in this paragraph (e)(2) a minimum percentage of their light-duty 
vehicle and light light-duty truck fleet according to the following 
phase-in schedule:

------------------------------------------------------------------------
                         Model year                           Percentage

2002.......................................................           50
2003.......................................................           85
------------------------------------------------------------------------

    (B) Manufacturers may use an ``Alternative or Equivalent Phase-in 
Schedule'' to comply with the phase-in requirements. An ``Alternative 
Phase-

[[Page 969]]

in'' is one that achieves at least equivalent emission reductions by the 
end of the last model year of the scheduled phase-in. Model-year 
emission reductions shall be calculated by multiplying the percent of 
vehicles (based on the manufacturer's projected California sales volume 
of the applicable vehicle fleet) meeting the new requirements per model 
year by the number of model years implemented prior to and including the 
last model year of the scheduled phase-in. The ``cumulative total'' is 
the summation of the model-year emission reductions (e.g., a four model-
year 25/50/85/100 percent phase-in schedule would be calculated as: 
(25%* 4 years) + (50%* 3 years) + (85%* 2 years) + (100%* 1 year) = 
520). Any alternative phase-in that results in an equal or larger 
cumulative total than the required cumulative total by the end of the 
last model year of the scheduled phase-in shall be considered acceptable 
by the Administrator under the following conditions: All vehicles 
subject to the phase-in shall comply with the respective requirements in 
the last model year of the required phase-in schedule; and if a 
manufacturer uses the optional phase-in percentage determination in 
paragraph (e)(1)(i) of this section, the cumulative total of model-year 
emission reductions as determined only for light-duty vehicles and light 
light-duty trucks certified to this paragraph (e)(2) must also be equal 
to or larger than the required cumulative total by end of the 2004 model 
year. Manufacturers shall be allowed to include vehicles introduced 
before the first model year of the scheduled phase-in (e.g., in the 
previous example, 10 percent introduced one year before the scheduled 
phase-in begins would be calculated as: (10%* 5 years) and added to the 
cumulative total).
    (ii) Phase-in requirements--2004 and later model years. For the 
purposes of this paragraph (e)(2)(ii) only, each manufacturer's light-
duty vehicle and light light-duty truck fleet shall be defined as the 
total projected number of light-duty vehicles and light light-duty 
trucks certified as LEVs and ULEVs sold in the United States.
    (A) In 2004 and subsequent model years, manufacturers of light-duty 
vehicles and light light-duty trucks, including low volume 
manufacturers, shall certify 100 percent of their light-duty vehicle and 
light light-duty truck fleet to the standards in this paragraph (e)(2).
    (iii) Phase-in requirements--vehicles sold outside California. 
Light-duty vehicles and light light-duty trucks sold outside California 
shall be certified to the applicable emission standards in this 
paragraph (e) if a vehicle has been certifed to the emission standards 
in this paragraph (e) for sale in California and is identical in the 
following respects:
    (A) Vehicle manufacturer;
    (B) Vehicle make and model;
    (C) Cylinder block configuration (L-6, V-8, and so forth);
    (D) Displacement;
    (E) Combustion cycle;
    (F) Transmission class; and
    (G) Axle ratio.
    (3) A/C-on specific calibrations. A/C-on specific calibrations (e.g. 
air to fuel ratio, spark timing, and exhaust gas recirculation), may be 
used which differ from A/C-off calibrations for given engine operating 
conditions (e.g., engine speed, manifold pressure, coolant temperature, 
air charge temperature, and any other parameters). Such calibrations 
must not unnecessarily reduce the NMHC+NOX emission control 
effectiveness during A/C-on operation when the vehicle is operated under 
conditions which may reasonably be expected to be encountered during 
normal operation and use. If reductions in control system 
NMHC+NOX effectiveness do occur as a result of such 
calibrations, the manufacturer shall, in the Application for 
Certification, specify the circumstances under which such reductions do 
occur, and the reason for the use of such calibrations resulting in such 
reductions in control system effectiveness. A/C-on specific ``open-
loop'' or ``commanded enrichment'' air-fuel enrichment strategies (as 
defined below), which differ from A/C-off ``open-loop'' or ``commanded 
enrichment'' air-fuel enrichment strategies, may not be used, with the 
following exceptions: Cold-start and warm-up conditions, or, subject to 
Administrator

[[Page 970]]

approval, conditions requiring the protection of the vehicle, occupants, 
engine, or emission control hardware. Other than these exceptions, such 
strategies which are invoked based on manifold pressure, engine speed, 
throttle position, or other engine parameters shall use the same engine 
parameter criteria for the invoking of this air-fuel enrichment strategy 
and the same degree of enrichment regardless of whether the A/C is on or 
off. ``Open-loop'' or ``commanded'' air-fuel enrichment strategy is 
defined as enrichment of the air to fuel ratio beyond stoichiometry for 
the purposes of increasing engine power output and the protection of 
engine or emissions control hardware. However, ``closed-loop biasing,'' 
defined as small changes in the air-fuel ratio for the purposes of 
optimizing vehicle emissions or driveability, shall not be considered an 
``open-loop'' or ``commanded'' air-fuel enrichment strategy. In 
addition, ``transient'' air-fuel enrichment strategy (or ``tip-in'' and 
``tip-out'' enrichment), defined as the temporary use of an air-fuel 
ratio rich of stoichiometry at the beginning or duration of rapid 
throttle motion, shall not be considered an ``open-loop'' or 
``commanded'' air-fuel enrichment strategy.
    (4) ``Lean-on-cruise'' calibration strategies. (i) In the 
Application for Certification, the manufacturer shall state whether any 
``lean-on-cruise'' strategies are incorporated into the vehicle design. 
A ``lean-on-cruise'' air-fuel calibration strategy is defined as the use 
of an air-fuel ratio significantly greater than stoichiometry, during 
non-deceleration conditions at speeds above 40 mph. ``Lean-on-cruise'' 
air-fuel calibration strategies shall not be employed during vehicle 
operation in normal driving conditions, including A/C usage, unless at 
least one of the following conditions is met:
    (A) Such strategies are substantially employed during the FTP or 
SFTP;
    (B) Such strategies are demonstrated not to significantly reduce 
vehicle NMHC+NOX emission control effectiveness over the 
operating conditions in which they are employed;
    (C) Such strategies are demonstrated to be necessary to protect the 
vehicle occupants, engine, or emission control hardware.
    (ii) If the manufacturer proposes to use a ``lean-on-cruise'' 
calibration strategy, the manufacturer shall specify the circumstances 
under which such a calibration would be used, and the reason or reasons 
for the proposed use of such a calibration.
    (iii) The provisions of this paragraph (e)(4) shall not apply to 
vehicles powered by ``lean-burn'' engines or diesel-cycle engines. A 
``lean-burn'' engine is defined as an Otto-cycle engine designed to run 
at an air-fuel ratio significantly greater than stoichiometry during the 
large majority of its operation.
    (5) Applicability to alternative fuel vehicles. These SFTP standards 
do not apply to vehicles certified on fuels other than gasoline and 
diesel fuel, but the standards do apply to the gasoline and diesel fuel 
operation of flexible-fuel vehicles and dual-fuel vehicles.
    (6) Single-roll electric dynamometer requirement. For all vehicles 
certified to the SFTP standards, a single-roll electric dynamometer or a 
dynamometer which produces equivalent results, as set forth in 
Sec. 86.108, must be used for all types of emission testing to determine 
compliance with the associated emission standards.

    (iv) Highway NOX. The maximum projected NOX 
emissions measured on the federal Highway Fuel Economy Test in 40 CFR 
part 600, subpart B, shall be not greater than 1.33 times the applicable 
light light-duty truck standards shown in tables R99-8 and R99-9. Both 
the projected emissions and the Highway Fuel Economy Test standard shall 
be rounded to the nearest 0.1 g/mi in accordance with the Rounding-Off 
Method specified in ASTM E29-90, Standard Practice for Using Significant 
Digits in Test Data to Determine Conformance with Specifications, before 
being compared. These procedures are incorporated by reference (see 
Sec. 86.1).
    (v) Hybrid electric vehicle requirements. Deterioration factors for 
hybrid electric vehicles shall be based on the emissions and mileage 
accumulation of the auxiliary power unit. For certification purposes 
only, Type A hybrid electric vehicles shall demonstrate compliance with 
50,000 mile emission standards (using 50,000 mile deterioration 
factors), and shall not be required to demonstrate compliance with 
100,000 mile emission standards. For certification purposes only, Type B 
hybrid electric vehicles shall demonstrate compliance with 50,000 mile 
emission standards (using 50,000 mile deterioration factors) and 100,000 
mile emission standards (using 75,000 mile deterioration factors). For 
certification purposes only, Type C hybrid electric vehicles shall 
demonstrate compliance with 50,000 mile emission standards (using 50,000

Sec. 86.1). NMOG emissions shall be compared to the applicable NMOG 
emissions certification or in-use standard according to the following 
calculation procedures:
    (1) For TLEVs, LEVs, and ULEVs designed to operate on any fuel other 
than conventional gasoline, and for flexible-fuel and dual-fuel TLEVs, 
LEVs, and ULEVs when operated on a fuel other than gasoline as specified 
in Sec. 86.1771, manufacturers shall multiply NMOG mass exhaust emission 
levels by the applicable reactivity adjustment factor set forth in 
Sec. 86.1777 or established by the Administrator pursuant to 
Sec. 86.1777. The product of the NMOG exhaust emission levels and the 
reactivity adjustment factor shall be compared to the applicable 
certification or in-use exhaust NMOG mass emission standards established 
for the particular vehicle emission category to determine compliance.
    (2) In addition to multiplying the exhaust NMOG mass emission levels 
by the applicable reactivity adjustment factor, TLEV, LEV, or ULEV 
natural gas vehicles shall multiply the exhaust methane mass emission 
level by the applicable methane reactivity adjustment factor in 
Sec. 86.1777 or established by the Administrator pursuant to 
Sec. 86.1777. The reactivity-adjusted NMOG value shall be added to the 
reactivity-adjusted methane value and then the sum shall be compared to 
the applicable certification or in-use exhaust NMOG mass emission 
standards established for the particular vehicle emission category to 
determine compliance.
    (3) The exhaust NMOG mass emission levels for fuel-flexible and 
dual-fuel vehicles when operating on gasoline as specified in 
Sec. 86.1771 shall not be multiplied by a reactivity adjustment factor.
    (e) SFTP Standards. Exhaust emissions from 2001 and later model year 
light light-duty trucks shall meet the additional SFTP standards in this 
paragraph (e) according to the implementation schedules in this 
paragraph (e). The standards set forth in this paragraph (e) refer to 
exhaust emissions emitted over the Supplemental Federal Test Procedure 
(SFTP) as set forth in subpart B of this part and collected and 
calculated in accordance with those procedures.
    (1) Tier 1 vehicles and TLEVs. The SFTP exhaust emission levels from 
new 2001 and subsequent model year light light-duty trucks certified to 
the exhaust emission standards in Sec. 86.099-9(a)(1)(i) and subsequent 
model year provisions and light light-duty trucks certified as TLEVs 
shall not exceed the standards in Table R99-14.1, according to the 
implementation schedule in this paragraph (e)(1).

    (B) [Reserved]
    (ii) Phase-in requirements--2004 and later model years. For the 
purposes of paragraph (e)(1)(ii) of this section only, each 
manufacturer's light-duty vehicle and light light-duty truck fleet shall 
be defined as the total projected number of the following types of 
vehicles sold in the United States: light-duty vehicles certified to the 
exhaust emission standards in Sec. 86.099-8(a)(1)(i) and subsequent 
model year provisions, light light-duty trucks certified to the exhaust 
emission standards in Sec. 86.099-9(a)(1)(i) and subsequent model year

number of the manufacturer's light-duty vehicles and light light-duty 
trucks, other than zero emission vehicles, certified and sold in the 
United States.
    (A) In 2004 and subsequent model years, manufacturers of light-duty 
vehicles and light light-duty trucks, including low volume 
manufacturers, shall certify 100 percent of their light-duty vehicle and 
light light-duty truck

fleet to the standards in this paragraph (e)(1).
    (B) [Reserved]
    (iii) Phase-in requirements--vehicles sold outside California. 
Light-duty vehicles and light light-duty trucks sold outside California 
shall be certified to the applicable emission standards in this 
paragraph (e) if a vehicle has been certifed to the emission standards 
in this paragraph (e) for sale in California and is identical in the 
following respects:
    (A) Vehicle manufacturer;
    (B) Vehicle make and model;

    (i) Phase-in requirements--2001 to 2003 model years. For the 
purposes of this paragraph (e)(2)(i) only, each manufacturer's light-
duty vehicle and light light-duty truck fleet shall be defined as the 
total projected number of light-duty vehicles and light light-duty 
trucks certified as LEVs and ULEVs sold in California.
    (A) Manufacturers of light-duty vehicles and light light-duty 
trucks, except low volume manufacturers, shall certify to the standards

------------------------------------------------------------------------

    (B) Manufacturers may use an ``Alternative or Equivalent Phase-in 
Schedule'' to comply with the phase-in requirements. An ``Alternative 
Phase-in'' is one that achieves at least equivalent emission reductions 
by the end of the last model year of the scheduled phase-in. Model-year 
emission reductions shall be calculated by multiplying the percent of 
vehicles (based on the manufacturer's projected California sales volume 
of the applicable vehicle fleet) meeting the new requirements per model 
year by the number of model years implemented prior to and including the 
last model year of the scheduled phase-in. The ``cumulative total'' is 
the summation of the model-year emission reductions (e.g., a four model-
year 25/50/85/100 percent phase-in schedule would be calculated as: 
(25%*4 years)+(50%*3 years)+(85%*2 years)+(100%*1 year) = 520). Any 
alternative phase-in that results in an equal or larger cumulative total 
than the required cumulative total by the end of the last model year of 
the scheduled phase-in shall be considered acceptable by the 
Administrator under the following conditions: All vehicles subject to 
the phase-in shall comply with the respective requirements in the last 
model year of the required phase-in schedule; and if a manufacturer uses 
the optional phase-in percentage determination in paragraph (e)(1)(i) of 
this section, the cumulative total of model-year emission reductions as 
determined only for light-duty vehicles and light light-duty trucks 
certified to this paragraph (e)(2) must also be equal to or larger than 
the required cumulative total by the end of the 2004 model year. 
Manufacturers shall be allowed to include vehicles introduced before the 
first model year of the scheduled phase-in (e.g., in the previous 
example, 10 percent introduced one year before the scheduled phase-in 
begins would be calculated as: (10%*5 years) and added to the cumulative 
total).
    (ii) Phase-in requirements--2004 and later model years. For the 
purposes of this paragraph (e)(2)(ii) only, each manufacturer's light-
duty vehicle and light light-duty truck fleet shall be defined as the 
total projected number of light-duty vehicles and light light-duty 
trucks certified as LEVs and ULEVs sold in the United States.
    (A) In 2004 and subsequent model years, manufacturers of light-duty 
vehicles and light light-duty trucks, including low volume 
manufacturers, shall certify 100 percent of their light-duty vehicle and 
light light-duty truck fleet to the standards in this paragraph (e)(2).
    (B) [Reserved]
    (iii) Phase-in requirements--vehicles sold outside California. 
Light-duty vehicles and light light-duty trucks sold outside California 
shall be certified to the applicable emission standards in

[[Page 976]]

this paragraph (e) if a vehicle has been certifed to the emission 
standards in this paragraph (e) for sale in California and is identical 
in the following respects:
    (A) Vehicle manufacturer;
    (B) Vehicle make and model;
    (C) Cylinder block configuration (L-6, V-8, and so forth);
    (D) Displacement;
    (E) Combustion cycle;
    (F) Transmission class; and
    (G) Axle ratio.
    (3) A/C-on specific calibrations. A/C-on specific calibrations 
(e.g., air to fuel ratio, spark timing, and exhaust gas recirculation), 
may be used which differ from A/C-off calibrations for given engine 
operating conditions (e.g., engine speed, manifold pressure, coolant 
temperature, air charge temperature, and any other parameters). Such 
calibrations must not unnecessarily reduce the NMHC+NOX 
emission control effectiveness during A/C-on operation when the vehicle 
is operated under conditions which may reasonably be expected to be 
encountered during normal operation and use. If reductions in control 
system NMHC+NOX effectiveness do occur as a result of such 
calibrations, the manufacturer shall, in the Application for 
Certification, specify the circumstances under which such reductions do 
occur, and the reason for the use of such calibrations resulting in such 
reductions in control system effectiveness. A/C-on specific ``open-
loop'' or ``commanded enrichment'' air-fuel enrichment strategies (as 
defined below), which differ from A/C-off ``open-loop'' or ``commanded 
enrichment'' air-fuel enrichment strategies, may not be used, with the 
following exceptions: Cold-start and warm-up conditions, or, subject to 
Administrator approval, conditions requiring the protection of the 
vehicle, occupants, engine, or emission control hardware. Other than 
these exceptions, such strategies which are invoked based on manifold 
pressure, engine speed, throttle position, or other engine parameters 
shall use the same engine parameter criteria for the invoking of this 
air-fuel enrichment strategy and the same degree of enrichment 
regardless of whether the A/C is on or off. ``Open-loop'' or 
``commanded'' air-fuel enrichment strategy is defined as enrichment of 
the air to fuel ratio beyond stoichiometry for the purposes of 
increasing engine power output and the protection of engine or emissions 
control hardware. However, ``closed-loop biasing,'' defined as small 
changes in the air-fuel ratio for the purposes of optimizing vehicle 
emissions or driveability, shall not be considered an ``open-loop'' or 
``commanded'' air-fuel enrichment strategy. In addition, ``transient'' 
air-fuel enrichment strategy (or ``tip-in'' and ``tip-out'' enrichment), 
defined as the temporary use of an air-fuel ratio rich of stoichiometry 
at the beginning or duration of rapid throttle motion, shall not be 
considered an ``open-loop'' or ``commanded'' air-fuel enrichment 
strategy.
    (4) ``Lean-on-cruise'' calibration strategies. (i) In the 
Application for Certification, the manufacturer shall state whether any 
``lean-on-cruise'' strategies are incorporated into the vehicle design. 
A ``lean-on-cruise'' air-fuel calibration strategy is defined as the use 
of an air-fuel ratio significantly greater than stoichiometry, during 
non-deceleration conditions at speeds above 40 mph. ``Lean-on-cruise'' 
air-fuel calibration strategies shall not be employed during vehicle 
operation in normal driving conditions, including A/C usage, unless at 
least one of the following conditions is met:
    (A) Such strategies are substantially employed during the FTP or 
SFTP;
    (B) Such strategies are demonstrated not to significantly reduce 
vehicle NMHC+NOx emission control effectiveness over the 
operating conditions in which they are employed;
    (C) Such strategies are demonstrated to be necessary to protect the 
vehicle occupants, engine, or emission control hardware.
    (ii) If the manufacturer proposes to use a ``lean-on-cruise'' 
calibration strategy, the manufacturer shall specify the circumstances 
under which such a calibration would be used, and the reason or reasons 
for the proposed use of such a calibration.
    (iii) The provisions of this paragraph (e)(4) shall not apply to 
vehicles powered by ``lean-burn'' engines or diesel-cycle engines. A 
``lean-burn'' engine is

[[Page 977]]

defined as an Otto-cycle engine designed to run at an air-fuel ratio 
significantly greater than stoichiometry during the large majority of 
its operation.
    (5) Applicability to alternative fuel vehicles. These SFTP standards 
do not apply to vehicles certified on fuels other than gasoline and 
diesel fuel, but the standards do apply to the gasoline and diesel fuel 
operation of flexible-fuel vehicles and dual-fuel vehicles.
    (6) Single-roll electric dynamometer requirement. For all vehicles 
certified to the SFTP standards, a single-roll electric dynamometer or a 
dynamometer which produces equivalent results, as set forth in 
Sec. 86.108, must be used for all types of emission testing to determine 
compliance with the associated emission standards.

    (2)(i) For the purpose of calculating the HEV contribution factor 
for the fleet average NMOG value, a manufacturer may use adjusted values 
to estimate the contributions of hybrid electric vehicles (or ``HEVs'') 
based on the range of the HEV without the use of the engine. See 
Sec. 86.1702 for definitions of HEV types for purposes of calculating 
adjusted NMOG emissions.
    (ii) For the purpose of calculating fleet average NMOG values, 
vehicles that have no tailpipe emissions but use fuel-fired heaters and 
that are not certified as ZEVs shall be treated as Type A HEV ULEVs.
    (3)(i) Each manufacturer's applicable fleet average NMOG value for 
all light

[[Page 978]]

light-duty trucks from 0-3750 lbs. loaded vehicle weight and light-duty 
vehicles sold in the applicable region according to Tables R99-15 and 
R99-16 shall be calculated in units of g/mi NMOG according to the 
following equation, where the term ``Sold'' means sold in the applicable 
region according to Tables R99-15 and R99-16, and the term ``Vehicles'' 
means light light-duty trucks from 0-3750 lbs loaded vehicle weight and 
light-duty vehicles: (((No. of Vehicles Certified to the Federal Tier 1 
Exhaust Emission Standards and Sold) x (0.25))+((No. of TLEVs Sold 
excluding HEVs) x  (0.125)) +((No. of LEVs Sold excluding 
HEVs) x (0.75))+((No. of ULEVs Sold excluding HEVs) x (0.040))+(HEV 
contribution factor))/(Total No. of Vehicles Sold, including ZEVs and 
HEVs).
    (A) For model years 1997 through 2000, ``Vehicles'' in the preceding 
equation shall include California-certified vehicles, including vehicles 
certified to California Tier 1 standards.
    (B) For model years 2001 and later, ``vehicles'' in the preceding 
equation shall not include California-certified vehicles unless they are 
also certified under the National LEV program.
    (ii)(A) ``HEV contribution factor'' shall mean the NMOG emission 
contribution of HEVs to the fleet average NMOG value. The HEV 
contribution factor shall be calculated in units of g/mi as follows, 
where the term ``Sold'' means sold in the applicable region according to 
tables R99-15 and R99-16.
    (B) HEV contribution factor = (((No. of Type A HEV TLEVs Sold)  x  
(0.100)) + ((No. of Type B HEV TLEVs Sold)  x  (0.113)) + ((No. of Type 
C HEV TLEVs Sold)  x  (0.125))) + (((No. of Type A HEV LEVs Sold)  x  
(0.057)) + ((No. of Type B HEV LEVs Sold)  x  (0.066)) + ((No. of Type C 
HEV LEVs Sold)  x  (0.075))) + (((No. of Type A HEV ULEVs Sold)  x  
(0.020)) + ((No. of Type B HEV ULEVs Sold)  x  (0.030)) + ((No. of Type 
C HEV ULEVs Sold)  x  (0.040))).
    (iii)(A) For any model year in which a manufacturer certifies its 
entire fleet of light-duty vehicles and light light-duty trucks from 0-
3750 lbs LVW to intermediate useful life NMOG emission standards 
specified in Secs. 86.1708 and 86.1709 that are less than or equal to 
the applicable fleet average NMOG standard specified in Tables R99-15 
and R99-16, the manufacturer may elect not to calculate a fleet average 
NMOG value for such vehicles for that model year.
    (B) The fleet average NMOG value for a manufacturer electing under 
paragraph (a)(3)(iii)(A) of this section not to calculate a fleet 
average NMOG value shall be deemed to be the applicable fleet average 
NMOG standard specified in Table R99-15 or R99-16 for the applicable 
model year.
    (C) A manufacturer making the election under paragraph 
(a)(3)(iii)(A) of this section may not generate credits for that model 
year for light light-duty trucks from 0-3750 lbs LVW and light-duty 
vehicles.
    (4)(i) Each manufacturer's applicable fleet average NMOG value for 
all light light-duty trucks from 3751-5750 lbs loaded vehicle weight 
sold in the applicable region according to Tables R99-15 and R99-16 
shall be calculated in units of g/mi NMOG according to the following 
equation, where the term ``Sold'' means sold in the applicable region 
according to Tables R97-15 and R97-16, and the term ``Vehicles'' means 
light light-duty trucks from 3751-5750 lbs loaded vehicle weight: (((No. 
of Vehicles Certified to the Federal Tier 1 Exhaust Emission Standards 
and Sold) x (0.32))+((No. of TLEVs Sold excluding HEVs) x (0.160))+((No. 
of LEVs Sold excluding HEVs) x (0.100))+(No. of ULEVs Sold excluding 
HEVs) x (0.050))+(HEV Contribution factor))/(Total No. of Vehicles Sold, 
including ZEVs and HEVs).
    (A) For model years 1997 through 2000, ``Vehicles'' in the preceding 
equation shall include California-certified vehicles, including vehicles 
certified to California Tier 1 standards.
    (B) For model years 2001 and later, ``Vehicles'' in the preceding 
equation shall not include California-certified vehicles unless they are 
also certified under the National LEV program.
    (ii)(A) ``HEV contribution factor'' shall mean the NMOG emission 
contribution of HEVs to the fleet average NMOG. The HEV contribution 
factor shall be calculated in units of g/mi as follows, where the term 
``Sold'' means sold in the applicable region according to tables R99-15 
and R99-16.

[[Page 979]]

    (B) HEV contribution factor=(((No. of Type A HEV TLEVs Sold)  x  
(0.130)) + ((No. of Type B HEV TLEVs Sold)  x  (0.145)) + ((No. of Type 
C HEV TLEVs Sold)  x  (0.160))) + (((No. of Type A HEV LEVs Sold)  x  
(0.075)) + ((No. of Type B HEV LEVs Sold)  x  (0.087)) + ((No. of Type C 
HEV LEVs Sold)  x  (0.100))) + (((No. of Type A HEV ULEVs Sold)  x  
(0.025)) + ((No. of Type B HEV ULEVs Sold)  x  (0.037)) + ((No. of Type 
C HEV ULEVs Sold)  x  (0.050))).
    (iii)(A) For any model year in which a manufacturer certifies its 
entire fleet of light light-duty trucks from 3751-5750 lbs LVW to 
intermediate useful life NMOG emission standards specified in 
Sec. 86.1709 that are less than or equal to the applicable fleet average 
NMOG requirements specified in Tables R99-15 and R99-16, the 
manufacturer may elect not to calculate a fleet average NMOG value for 
such vehicles for that model year.
    (B) The fleet average NMOG value for a manufacturer electing under 
paragraph (a)(4)(iii)(A) of this section not to calculate a fleet 
average NMOG value shall be deemed to be the applicable fleet average 
NMOG standard specified in Table R99-15 or R99-16 for the applicable 
model year.
    (5)(i) The calculation of the fleet average NMOG value pursuant to 
paragraphs (a)(3) and (a)(4) of this section shall exclude ATVs, as 
defined in Sec. 86.1702, purchased in the NTR by state governments. In 
determining the quantity of vehicles to be excluded from the NMOG 
calculations, a manufacturer shall only be required to exclude vehicles 
that are reported by the purchasing government in a timely letter, 
containing adequate information, directed to the representative of the 
manufacturer listed in the manufacturer's application for certification. 
Such letter shall be considered timely only if it is received no later 
than February 1 of the calendar year following the model year of the 
purchased vehicles.
    (ii) Adequate information includes the number of vehicles purchased, 
vehicle makes and models, and the associated engine families. A copy of 
the letter should be sent to: Director, Vehicle Programs and Compliance 
Division, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, 2565 Plymouth Road, Ann 
Arbor, Michigan, 48105.
    (6) For any model year prior to model year 2001 for which a 
manufacturer meets the definition of ``low volume manufacturer'' in 
Sec. 86.1702, it shall be exempt from the requirements in paragraph 
(a)(1) of this section. The requirements in paragraph (a)(1) of this 
section applicable to the 2001 and later model years shall apply to low 
volume manufacturers.
    (b) Fleet average NMOG credit and debit calculations. (1) For each 
averaging set, as defined in Sec. 86.1702, manufacturers that achieve 
fleet average NMOG values lower than the fleet average NMOG standard for 
the corresponding model year may generate credits.
    (2) For each averaging set, manufacturers that obtain applicable 
fleet average NMOG values exceeding the fleet average NMOG standard for 
the corresponding model year shall generate debits.
    (3) For each averaging set, credits and debits are to be calculated 
according to the following equation and rounded, in accordance with the 
Rounding-Off Method specified in ASTM E29-90, Standard Practice for 
Using Significant Digits in Test Data to Determine Conformance with 
Specifications, which is incorporated by reference (see Sec. 86.1), to 
the nearest whole number (intermediate calculations will not be 
rounded): Number of Credits/Debits = (((Applicable Fleet Average NMOG 
Standard) - (Manufacturer's Applicable Fleet Average NMOG Value))  x  
(Applicable Production)).
    (4) For each applicable region and model year, a manufacturer's 
available credits or level of debits shall be the sum of credits or 
debits derived from the respective class A and class B averaging sets 
for that region and model year. Paragraph (d)(2)(ii)(C) of this section 
contains a special provision for manufacturers that end model year 2000 
with a debit balance in the NTR.
    (c) Intermediate in-use emission standards. (1) Only credits 
generated in the NTR may be used to offset NMOG debits incurred in the 
NTR. Manufacturers may use in the ASTR credits generated in the NTR.
    (2) Only after credits are earned may they be used, traded, or 
carried over to

[[Page 980]]

another model year. Before trading or carrying over credits to the next 
model year, a manufacturer must apply available credits to offset any of 
its debits from the same region, where the deadline to offset such 
debits has not yet passed.
    (3) Credits earned in any given model year shall retain full value 
through the subsequent model year.
    (4) Unused credits that are available at the end of the second, 
third, and fourth model years after the model year in which the credits 
were generated shall be discounted to 50%, 25%, and 0% of the original 
value of the credits, respectively. The discounting of credits also 
applies to credits transferred to other parties.
    (5) Credits may not be used to remedy any nonconformities determined 
by a Selective Enforcement Audit, recall testing, or testing performed 
with respect to Title 13, Chapter 2, Articles 1 and 2 of the California 
Code of Regulations.
    (6) Prior to model year 2001, low volume manufacturers may earn 
credits in the NTR to transfer to other motor vehicle manufacturers for 
use in the NTR or the ASTR, or to bank for their own use in the ASTR. 
Such credits will be calculated as set forth in paragraphs (a) and (b) 
of this section, except that the applicable fleet average NMOG standard 
shall be 0.25 g/mi NMOG for the averaging set for light light-duty 
trucks from 0-3750 lbs LVW and light-duty vehicles or 0.32 g/mi NMOG for 
the averaging set for light light-duty trucks from 3751-5750 lbs LVW. 
Credits shall be discounted in accordance with the provisions in 
paragraph (c)(4) of this section.
    (7) Prior to model year 2001, manufacturers may earn credits in the 
ASTR states that are not in the NTR and may bank those credits for use 
in the ASTR. Such credits will be calculated as set forth in paragraphs 
(a) and (b) of this section, except that the applicable fleet average 
NMOG standard shall be 0.25 g/mi NMOG for the averaging set for light 
light-duty trucks from 0-3750 lbs LVW and light-duty vehicles or 0.32 g/
mi NMOG for the averaging set for light light-duty trucks from 3751-5750 
lbs LVW, and ``sold'' shall mean sold in the ASTR states that are not in 
the NTR.
    (i) Emission credits earned in the ASTR states outside the NTR prior 
to model year 2001 shall be treated as generated in model year 2001.
    (ii) In the 2001 model year, a one-time discount rate of 10 percent 
shall be applied to all credits earned under the provisions of this 
paragraph (c)(7).
    (iii) These credits shall be discounted in accordance with the 
provisions in paragraph (c)(4) of this section.
    (8) Manufacturers may earn and bank credits in the NTR for model 
years 1997 and 1998. In states without a Section 177 Program effective 
in model year 1997 or 1998, such credits will be calculated as set forth 
in paragraphs (a) and (b) of this section, except that the applicable 
fleet average NMOG standard shall be 0.200 g/mi NMOG for the averaging 
set for light light-duty trucks from 0-3750 lbs LVW and light-duty 
vehicles or 0.256 g/mi NMOG for the averaging set for light light-duty 
trucks from 3751-5750 lbs LVW. In states that opt into National LEV and 
have a Section 177 Program effective in model year 1997 or 1998, such 
credits will equal the unused credits earned in those states.
    (i) Emissions credits earned in the NTR prior to the 1999 model year 
shall be treated as generated in the 1999 model year.
    (ii) In the 1999 model year, a one-time discount rate of 10 percent 
shall be applied to all credits earned under the provisions of this 
paragraph (c)(8).
    (iii) These credits shall be discounted in accordance with the 
provisions in paragraph (c)(4) of this section.
    (9) There are no property rights associated with credits generated 
under the provisions of this section. Credits are a limited 
authorization to emit the designated amount of emissions. Nothing in the 
regulations or any other provision of law should be construed to limit 
EPA's authority to terminate or limit this authorization through a 
rulemaking. If EPA were to terminate or limit the authorization to emit 
associated with emissions credits generated under the provisions of this 
section, this paragraph (c)(9) would have no effect on manufacturers' 
ability to opt

[[Page 981]]

out of the National LEV program pursuant to Sec. 86.1707.
    (d) Fleet average NMOG debits. (1) Manufacturers shall offset any 
debits for a given model year by the fleet average NMOG reporting 
deadline for the model year following the model year in which the debits 
were generated. Manufacturers may offset debits by generating credits or 
acquiring credits generated by another manufacturer. Only credits 
generated in the NTR may be used to offset NMOG debits generated in the 
NTR.
    (2) The provisions of this paragraph (d)(2) apply only when a 
manufacturer has a debit balance in the NTR at the end of model year 
2000. Manufacturers shall offset any debits incurred in the NTR for 
model year 2000 by the fleet average NMOG reporting deadline for model 
year 2001.
    (i) A manufacturer may offset debits generated in the NTR in model 
year 2000 either by generating credits in the NTR in model year 2001 or 
by applying NTR credits acquired under the provisions of this section.
    (ii) If a manufacturer has a debit balance in the NTR at the end of 
model year 2000, then such manufacturer shall be required to calculate 
fleet average NMOG values for both the NTR and the ASTR for model year 
2001.
    (A) The NTR values shall be calculated according to paragraphs (a) 
and (b) of this section, with the fleet average NMOG standards equal to 
the standards for model year 2001 in the ASTR.
    (B) If such a manufacturer has a credit balance in the NTR for model 
year 2001, before trading or carrying over credits to the next model 
year, the manufacturer must apply available NTR credits to offset its 
debits in the NTR.
    (C) Notwithstanding paragraph (b)(4) of this section, for the ASTR 
and model year 2001, such a manufacturer's available credits or level of 
debits shall be the sum of credits or debits derived from the respective 
class A and class B averaging sets for the ASTR and model year 2001, 
minus any credits used pursuant to paragraph (d)(2)(ii)(B).
    (iii) To transfer a credit as an NTR credit earned in model year 
2001, a manufacturer must have credits generated in the NTR based on 
separate fleet average NMOG values calculated for the NTR in model year 
2001. In addition, the number of model year 2001 NTR credits available 
for a manufacturer to transfer cannot exceed the manufacturer's 
available number of model year 2001 ASTR credits. Any transferred model 
year 2001 NTR credits shall be deducted from the manufacturer's 
available model year 2001 ASTR credits.
    (3)(i) Failure to meet the requirements of paragraphs (a) through 
(d) of this section within the required timeframe for offsetting debits 
will be considered to be a failure to satisfy the conditions upon which 
the certificate(s) was issued and the individual noncomplying vehicles 
not covered by the certificate shall be determined according to this 
section.
    (ii) If debits are not offset within the specified time period, the 
number of vehicles not meeting the fleet average NMOG standards and not 
covered by the certificate shall be calculated by dividing the total 
amount of debits for the model year by the fleet average NMOG standard 
applicable for the model year and averaging set in which the debits were 
first incurred. If both averaging sets are in debit, any applicable 
credits will first be allocated between the averaging sets according to 
the manufacturer's expressed preferences. Then, the number of vehicles 
not covered by the certificate shall be calculated using the revised 
debit values.
    (iii) EPA will determine the vehicles for which the condition on the 
certificate was not satisfied by designating vehicles in those engine 
families with the highest certification NMOG emission values first and 
continuing until a number of vehicles equal to the calculated number of 
noncomplying vehicles as determined above is reached. If this 
calculation determines that only a portion of vehicles in an engine 
family contribute to the debit situation, then EPA will designate actual 
vehicles in that engine family as not covered by the certificate, 
starting with the last vehicle produced and counting backwards.
    (4) If a manufacturer opts out of the National LEV program pursuant 
to

[[Page 982]]

Sec. 86.1707, the manufacturer continues to be responsible for 
offsetting any debits outstanding on the effective date of the opt-out 
within the required time period. Any failure to offset the debits will 
be considered to be a violation of paragraph (d)(1) of this section and 
may subject the manufacturer to an enforcement action for sale of 
vehicles not covered by a certificate, pursuant to paragraph (d)(2) of 
this section.
    (5) For purposes of calculating tolling of the statute of 
limitations, a violation of the requirements of paragraph (d)(1) of this 
section, a failure to satisfy the conditions upon which a certificate(s) 
was issued and hence a sale of vehicles not covered by the certificate, 
all occur upon the expiration of the deadline for offsetting debits 
specified in paragraph (d)(1) of this section.
    (e) NMOG credit transfers. (1) EPA may reject NMOG credit transfers 
if the involved manufacturers fail to submit the credit transfer 
notification in the annual report.
    (2) A manufacturer may not sell credits that are not available for 
sale pursuant to the provisions in paragraphs (c)(2) or (d)(2) of this 
section.
    (3) Except in instances of fraud on the part of the credit 
recipient, where a manufacturer sells credits that were not available 
for sale, the credits shall be treated as valid, and the manufacturer 
that sold the credits shall be liable for any resulting shortfall.
    (4)(i) If a manufacturer transfers a credit that it has not 
generated pursuant to paragraph (b) of this section or acquired from 
another party, the manufacturer will be considered to have generated a 
debit in the model year that the manufacturer transferred the credit. 
The manufacturer must offset such debits by the deadline for the annual 
report for that same model year.
    (ii) Failure to offset the debits within the required time period 
will be considered a failure to satisfy the conditions upon which the 
certificate(s) was issued and will be addressed pursuant to paragraph 
(d)(3) of this section.

date for the annual

[[Page 983]]

report. Records may be retained as hard copy or reduced to microfilm, 
ADP diskettes, and so forth, depending on the manufacturer's record 
retention procedure; provided, that in every case all information 
contained in the hard copy is retained.
    (4) Nothing in this section limits the Administrator's discretion to 
require the manufacturer to retain additional records or submit 
information not specifically required by this section.
    (5) Pursuant to a request made by the Administrator, the 
manufacturer shall submit to the Administrator the information that the 
manufacturer is required to retain.
    (6) EPA may void ab initio a certificate of conformity for a vehicle 
certified to National LEV certification standards as set forth or 
otherwise referenced in Sec. 86.1708 or Sec. 86.1709 for which the 
manufacturer fails to retain the records required in this section or to 
provide such information to the Administrator upon request.
    (b) Reporting. (1) Each covered manufacturer shall submit an annual 
report. Except as provided in paragraph (b)(2) of this section, the 
annual report shall contain, for each averaging set, the fleet average 
NMOG value achieved, all values required to calculate the NMOG value, 
the number of credits generated or debits incurred, and all the values 
required to calculate the credits or debits. For each applicable region 
(NTR and ASTR), the annual report shall contain the resulting balance of 
credits or debits.
    (2) When a manufacturer calculates compliance with the fleet average 
NMOG standards using the provisions in Sec. 86.1710(a)(3)(iii) or 
Sec. 86.1710(a)(4)(iii), then the annual report shall state that the 
manufacturer has elected to use such provision and shall contain, for 
each averaging set, the fleet average NMOG values as specified in 
Sec. 86.1710(a)(3)(iii) or Sec. 86.1710(a)(4)(iii).
    (3) The annual report shall also include documentation on all credit 
transactions the manufacturer has engaged in since those included in the 
last report. Information for each transaction shall include:
    (i) Name of credit provider;
    (ii) Name of credit recipient;
    (iii) Date the transfer occurred;
    (iv) Quantity of credits transferred;
    (v) Model year in which the credits were earned; and

Clean Air Act for each subject vehicle and truck produced by that 
manufacturer.
    (6) If EPA or the manufacturer determines that a reporting error 
occurred on an annual report previously submitted to EPA, the 
manufacturer's credit or debit calculations will be recalculated. EPA 
may void erroneous credits, unless transferred, and shall adjust 
erroneous debits. In the case of transferred erroneous credits, EPA 
shall adjust the manufacturer's credit or debit balance to reflect the 
sale of such credits and any resulting generation of debits.
    (c) Notice of opportunity for hearing. Any voiding of the 
certificate under paragraph (a)(6) of this section will be made only 
after EPA has offered the manufacturer concerned an opportunity for a 
hearing conducted in accordance with Sec. 86.614 for light-duty vehicles

additions:
    (a) The provisions of Sec. 86.096-21(b)(2) and subsequent model year 
provisions do not apply to this subpart. The following shall instead 
apply to this subpart:
    (1) For TLEVs, LEVs, and ULEVs not certified exclusively on 
gasoline, projected U.S. sales data and fuel economy data 19 months 
prior to January 1 of the calendar year with the same numerical 
designation as the model year for which the vehicles are certified, and 
projected U.S. sales data for all vehicles, regardless of operating fuel 
or vehicle emission category, sufficient to enable the Administrator to 
select a test fleet representative of the vehicles (or engines) for 
which certification is requested at the time of certification.
    (2) [Reserved]
    (b) For ZEVs and hybrid electric vehicles, the certification 
application shall include the following:
    (1) Identification and description of the vehicle(s) covered by the 
application.
    (2) Identification of the vehicle weight category to which the 
vehicle is certifying: LDV, LDT 0-3750 lbs LVW, LDT 3751-5750 lbs LVW 
(state test weight range), and the curb weight and gross vehicle weight 
rating of the vehicle.
    (3) Identification and description of the propulsion system for the 
vehicle.
    (4) Identification and description of the climate control system 
used on the vehicle.
    (5) Projected number of vehicles sold in the U.S., and projected 
U.S. sales.
    (6) For electric and hybrid electric vehicles, identification of the 
energy usage in kilowatt-hours per mile from the point when electricity 
is introduced from the electrical outlet and the operating range in 
miles of the vehicle when tested in accordance with the All-Electric

    (7) If the vehicle is equipped with a fuel fired heater, a 
description of the control system logic of the fuel fired heater, 
including an evaluation of the

[[Page 985]]

conditions under which the fuel fired heater can be operated and an 
evaluation of the possible operational modes and conditions under which 
evaporative emissions can exist. Vehicles which utilize fuel fired 
heaters which can be operated at ambient temperatures above 40  deg.F or 
which cannot be demonstrated to have zero evaporative emissions under 
any and all possible operation modes and conditions shall not be 
certified as ZEVs.
    (8) For ZEVs and HEVs which use fuel fired heaters, the manufacturer 
shall provide the exhaust emissions value per mile produced by the 
auxiliary fuel fired heater. This shall be accomplished by determining 
heater emissions in grams per minute when operating at a maximum heating 
capacity for a period of 20 minutes, and multiplying that number by 3.6 
minutes per mile. At the time of certification, manufacturers shall 
submit their test plan which describes the procedure used to determine 
the mass emissions of the fuel fired heater.
    (9) All information necessary for proper and safe operation of the 
vehicle, including information on the safe handling of the battery 
system, emergency procedures to follow in the event of battery leakage 
or other malfunctions that may affect the safety of the vehicle operator 
or laboratory personnel, method for determining battery state-of-charge, 
battery charging capacity and recharging procedures, and any other 
relevant information as determined by the Administrator.
    (c) For all vehicles subject to the provisions of Sec. 86.1717, with 
its application for certification a description of the malfunction and 
diagnostic system to be installed on the vehicles. (The vehicles shall 
not be certified unless the Administrator finds that the malfunction and 
diagnostic system complies with the requirements of Sec. 86.1717.).

    The provisions of Sec. 86.094-25 and subsequent model year 
provisions apply to this subpart, with the following additions:
    (a) Hybrid electric vehicles that use Otto-cycle or diesel engines 
are subject to the applicable Otto-cycle or diesel engine maintenance 
requirements of Sec. 86.094-25 (b) through (e) and subsequent model year 
provisions.
    (b) Manufacturers of series hybrid electric vehicles and parallel

Sec. 86.1726-99  Mileage and service accumulation; emission measurements.

    The provisions of Sec. 86.096-26 and subsequent model year 
provisions apply to this subpart, with the following exceptions and 
additions:
    (a) The provisions of Sec. 86.096-26(a)(1) and subsequent model year 
provisions do not apply to this subpart. The following shall instead 
apply to this subpart:
    (1) Section 86.096-26(a) and subsequent model year provisions 
applies to light-duty vehicles and light-duty trucks, except ZEVs which 
shall be exempt from all mileage and service accumulation, durability-
data vehicle, and emission-data vehicle testing requirements.
    (2) [Reserved]
    (b) The provisions of Sec. 86.096-26(a)(2) and subsequent model year 
provisions do not apply to this subpart. The following shall instead 
apply to this subpart:
    (1) The procedure for mileage accumulation shall be the Durability 
Driving Schedule as specified in appendix IV of this part. A modified 
procedure (Alternative Service Accumulation Durability Program, 
Sec. 86.094-13(e) and subsequent model year provisions) may also be used 
if approved in advance by the Administrator. All light-duty vehicles and 
light-duty trucks shall accumulate mileage at a measured curb weight 
that is within 100 pounds of the estimated curb weight. If the vehicle 
weight is within 100 pounds of being included in the next higher inertia 
weight class as specified in Sec. 86.129, the manufacturer may elect to 
conduct the respective emission tests at the higher weight. All mileage 
accumulation of hybrid electric vehicles shall be conducted with the 
battery pack at the manufacturer's indicated lowest state-of-charge at 
the beginning of the test cycle. At no time throughout mileage 
accumulation shall the battery pack be charged using any off-board 
charging source.
    (2) [Reserved]
    (c) The provisions of Sec. 86.096-26(a)(3) (i) and (ii) and 
subsequent model year provisions apply to this subpart, with the 
following addition:
    (1) For vehicles certified to the SFTP exhaust emission standards, 
complete exhaust emission tests will include both the FTP and the SFTP 
tests. The Administrator will accept the manufacturer's determination of 
the mileage at which the engine-system combination is stabilized for 
emission data testing if (prior to testing) a manufacturer determines 
that the interval chosen yields emissions performance that is stable and 
representative of design intent. Sufficient mileage should be 
accumulated to reduce the possible effects of any emissions variability 
that is the result of insufficient vehicle operation. Of primary 
importance in making this determination is the behavior of the catalyst, 
EGR valve, trap oxidizer or any other part of the ECS which may have 
non-linear aging characteristics. In the alternative, the manufacturer 
may elect to accumulate 4,000 mile +/-250 miles on each test vehicle 
within an engine family without making a determination.
    (2) [Reserved]
    (d) The provisions of Sec. 86.096-26(a)(4) (i) and (ii) and 
subsequent model year provisions do not apply to this subpart. The 
following shall instead apply to this subpart:
    (1) For Otto-cycle and diesel vehicles and battery assisted 
combustion engine vehicles that use Otto-cycle or diesel engines:
    (i) Prior to initiation of mileage accumulation in a durability-data 
vehicle, manufacturers must establish the mileage test interval for 
durability-data vehicle testing of the engine family. Once testing has 
begun on a durability-data vehicle, the durability test interval for 
that family may not be changed. At a minimum, multiple tests must be 
performed at 5,000 miles, 50,000 miles, and the final mileage point as 
long as they meet the requirements of

[[Page 988]]

appendix XV of this part. The Administrator will accept durability test 
interval schedules determined by the manufacturer. The testing must 
provide a DF confidence level equal to or better than the confidence 
level using the former fixed mileage test and scheduled maintenance 
intervals. The procedure for making this determination is specified in 
appendix XV of this part. The mileage intervals between test points must 
be approximately of equal length. The 250 mile test point 
tolerance and the requirement that tests be conducted before and after 
scheduled maintenance is still mandatory. Emission control systems for 
Otto-cycle engines that have step function changes designed into the 
control system must use the 5,000 mile test interval schedule.
    (ii) Testing before and after scheduled (or unscheduled) maintenance 
points must be conducted, and these data are to be included in the 
deterioration factor calculation. Testing before unscheduled maintenance 
may be omitted with the prior consent of the Administrator when testing 
would be dangerous to a vehicle or an operator. The number of tests 
before and after scheduled maintenance and the mileage intervals between 
test points should be approximately equal. Durability test interval 
schedules with multiple testing at test points within 10,000 miles of or 
at the 50,000 mile and the final mileage test point must be submitted 
for approval. Multiple testing at maintenance mileage tests points 
within 10,000 miles of the 50,000 mile and the final mileage test points 
may be approved if it can be demonstrated by previously generated data 
that the emission effects of the maintenance are insignificant.
    (iii) For engine families that are to be certified to the full 
useful life emission standards, each exhaust emission durability-data 
vehicle shall be driven with all emission control systems installed and 
operating, for the full useful life or such lesser distance as the 
Administrator may agree to as meeting the objective of this procedure. 
Durability tests shall be at every 5,000 miles, from 5,000 miles to the 
full useful life, however, the above procedures may be used to determine 
alternate test intervals subject to the following:
    (A) For engine families that are to be certified to the full useful 
life emission standards, durability vehicles may accumulate less than 
the full useful life if the manufacturer submits other data or 
information sufficient to demonstrate that the vehicle is capable of 
meeting the applicable emission standards for the full useful life. At a 
minimum, 75% of the full useful life shall be accumulated.
    (B) For the purpose of conducting mileage accumulation on light-duty 
hybrid electric vehicles, the full useful life of the auxiliary power 
unit shall be defined as 50,000 miles for a Type A hybrid electric 
vehicle, 75,000 miles for a Type B hybrid electric vehicle, and 100,000 
miles for a Type C hybrid electric vehicle.
    (iv) Alternative durability plans may also be used if the 
manufacturer provides a demonstration that the alternative plan provides 
equal or greater confidence that the vehicles will comply in-use with 
the emission standards. All alternative durability plans are subject to 
approval in advance by the Administrator.
    (2) For diesel vehicles equipped with periodically regenerating trap 
oxidizer systems, at least four regeneration emission tests (see 
Secs. 86.106 through 86.145) shall be made. The pollutant mass emission 
calculation procedures for vehicles equipped with periodically 
regenerating trap oxidizer systems are included in appendix XVI of this 
part. With the advance approval of the Administrator, the manufacturer 
may install: A manual override switch capable of preventing (i.e., 
delaying until the switch is turned off) the start of the regeneration 
process; and a light which indicates when the system would initiate 
regeneration if it had no override switch. Upon activation of the 
override switch the vehicle will be operated on a dynamometer to 
precondition it for the regeneration emission test in accordance with 
Secs. 86.132 and 86.1772. The Urban Dynamometer Driving Schedule (UDDS) 
that is in progress at the time when the light comes on shall be 
completed and the vehicle shall proceed to the prescribed soak period 
followed by testing. With the advance approval of

[[Page 989]]

the Administrator, the manual override switch will be turned off at some 
predetermined point in the testing sequence, permitting the regeneration 
process to proceed without further manual interaction. The mileage 
intervals between test points shall be approximately equal. The first 
regeneration emission test shall be made at the 5,000 mile point. The 
regeneration emission tests must provide a deterioration factor 
confidence level equal to or better than the confidence level achieved 
by performing regeneration emission tests at the following mileage 
points: 5,000; 25,000; 50,000; 75,000; and 100,000. The procedure for 
making this determination is shown in appendix XV of this part.
    (3) For gasoline-, gaseous-, and alcohol-fueled vehicles that are 
certified by a whole-vehicle durability protocol, the specified 
evaporative durability test points are at 5,000, 40,000, 75,000, and 
100,000 miles. These requirements are also applicable to hybrid electric 
vehicles. With the exception of flexible-fuel vehicles, a manufacturer 
may conduct evaporative testing at test points used for exhaust emission 
durability testing, provided that the same deterioration confidence 
level for the evaporative emission DF determination is retained (see 
appendix XIV of this part).
    (4) For flexible-fuel vehicles certifying to TLEV, LEV, or ULEV 
standards, the test schedule shall include exhaust emission tests at 
5,000 miles, 10,000 miles, and every 10,000 miles thereafter to the 
final mileage point using M85 or E85 and certification gasoline. For all 
flexible-fuel vehicles, if evaporative emission testing is conducted, 
exhaust and evaporative emission tests shall also be conducted using M35 
or E10, or another approved fuel, at the mileage points where M85 or E85 
testing is conducted. The results of these exhaust and evaporative 
emission tests will be used by the Administrator to evaluate the 
vehicle's emission control deterioration with various fuels (M85, M35, 
and unleaded gasoline; See fuel specifications in Sec. 86.1771). Only 
the M85 or E85 and certification gasoline exhaust emission results and 
the M35 or E10 evaporative emission results will be used to determine 
applicable exhaust and evaporative emission deterioration factors, 
respectively, as required in Sec. 86.1728 (Compliance with Emission 
Standards).
    (e) The provisions of Sec. 86.096-26(a)(5)(i) and subsequent model 
year provisions apply to this subpart, with the following addition:
    (1) In addition, the emission tests performed on emission-data 
vehicles and durability-data vehicles shall be non-regeneration emission 
tests for diesel light-duty vehicles and light-duty trucks equipped with 
periodically regenerating trap oxidizer systems. For any of these 
vehicles equipped with continually regenerating trap oxidizer systems, 
manufacturers may use the provisions applicable to periodically 
regenerating trap oxidizer systems as an option. If such an option is 
elected, all references in these procedures to vehicles equipped with 
periodically regenerating trap oxidizer systems shall be applicable to 
the vehicles equipped with continually regenerating trap oxidizer 
systems.
    (2) [Reserved]
    (f) The provisions of Sec. 86.096-26(a)(8) and subsequent model year 
provisions do not apply to this subpart. The following shall instead 
apply to this subpart:
    (1) Once a manufacturer submits the information required in 
Sec. 86.096-26(a)(7) and subsequent model year provisions for a 
durability-data vehicle, the manufacturer shall continue to run the 
vehicle to 50,000 miles if the family is certified to 50,000 mile 
emission standards or to the full useful life if it is certified to 
emission standards beyond 50,000 miles (or to a lesser distance that the 
Administrator may have previously agreed to), and the data from the 
vehicle will be used in the calculations under Sec. 86.094-28 and 
subsequent model year provisions. Discontinuation of a durability-data 
vehicle shall be allowed only with the consent of the Administrator.
    (2) [Reserved]
    (g) The provisions of Sec. 86.096-26(b) and subsequent model year 
provisions do not apply to this subpart.
    (h)(1) The exhaust emissions shall be measured from all exhaust 
emission data vehicles tested in accordance with the federal Highway 
Fuel Economy

[[Page 990]]

Test (HWFET; 40 CFR part 600, subpart B). The oxides of nitrogen 
emissions measured during such tests shall be multiplied by the oxides 
of nitrogen deterioration factor computed in accordance with 
Sec. 86.094-28 and subsequent model year provisions, and then rounded 
and compared with the applicable emission standard in Secs. 86.1708 and 
86.1709. All data obtained pursuant to this paragraph (h)(1) shall be 
reported in accordance with procedures applicable to other exhaust 
emissions data required pursuant to these procedures. Hybrid electric 
vehicles shall be tested with the battery state-of-charge set such that 
one of the following two conditions is satisfied:
    (i) The state-of-charge is at the lowest level allowed by the 
control unit of the auxiliary power unit; or
    (ii) The state-of-charge is set such that auxiliary power unit 
operation will be at its maximum level at the beginning and throughout 
the emission test.
    (2) In the event that one or more of the manufacturer's emission 
data vehicles fail the applicable HWFET standard in Secs. 86.1708 and 
86.1709, the manufacturer may submit to the Administrator engineering 
data or other evidence showing that the system is capable of complying 
with the standard. If the Administrator finds, on the basis of an 
engineering evaluation, that the system can comply with the HWFET 
standard, he or she may accept the information supplied by the 
manufacturer in lieu of vehicle test data.

    (b) The provisions of Sec. 86.094-28(a)(4)(i) and subsequent model 
year provisions do not apply to this subpart. The following shall 
instead apply to this subpart:
    (1) Separate emission deterioration factors shall be determined from 
the exhaust emission results of the durability-data vehicle(s) for each 
engine-system combination. A separate factor shall be established for 
exhaust HC (non-alcohol vehicles, non-TLEVs, non-LEVs, and non-ULEVs), 
exhaust OMHCE or OMNMHCE (alcohol vehicles that are not TLEVs, LEVs, or 
ULEVs), exhaust NMOG (all TLEVs, LEVs, ULEVs), exhaust formaldehyde 
(alcohol vehicles, TLEVs, LEVs, ULEVs), exhaust CO, exhaust 
NOX, and exhaust particulate (diesel vehicles only) for each 
engine-system combination. A separate evaporative emission deterioration 
factor shall be determined for each evaporative emission family-
evaporative emission control system combination from the testing 
conducted by the manufacturer (gasoline- and alcohol-fueled vehicles 
only). Separate emission correction factors (diesel light-duty vehicles 
and light-duty trucks equipped with periodically regenerating trap 
oxidizer systems only) shall be determined from the exhaust emission 
results of the durability-data vehicle(s) for each engine-system 
combination. A separate factor shall be established for exhaust HC (non-
alcohol vehicles, non-TLEVs, non-LEVs, and non-ULEVs), exhaust OMHCE or 
OMNMHCE (alcohol vehicles that are not TLEVs, LEVs, or ULEVs), exhaust 
NMOG (TLEVs, LEVs, ULEVs), exhaust CO, exhaust NOX, and

    (c) The provisions of Sec. 86.094-28(a)(4)(i)(A)(4) and subsequent 
model year provisions do not apply to this subpart. The following shall 
instead apply to this subpart:
    (1) The manufacturer must use the outlier identification procedure 
set forth in appendix VIII of this part to test for irregular data from 
a durability-data set. If any data point is identified as a statistical 
outlier, the Administrator shall determine, on the basis of an 
engineering analysis of the causes

[[Page 991]]

of the outlier submitted by the manufacturer, whether the outlier is to 
be rejected. The outlier shall be rejected only if the Administrator 
determines that the outlier does not reflect representative 
characteristics of the emission control system, i.e., the outlier is a 
result of an emission control system anomaly, test procedure error, or 
an extraordinary circumstance not expected to recur. Only the identified 
outlier shall be eliminated; other data at that test point (i.e., data 
for other pollutants) shall not be eliminated unless the Administrator 
determines, based on the engineering analysis, that they also do not 
reflect representative characteristics of the emission control system. 
Where the manufacturer chooses to apply both the outlier procedure and 
averaging to the same data set, the outlier procedure shall be completed 
prior to applying the averaging procedure. All durability test data, 
including any outliers and the manufacturer's engineering analysis, 
shall be submitted with the final application.
    (2) [Reserved]
    (d) The provisions of Sec. 86.094-28(a)(4)(i)(B) and subsequent 
model year provisions do not apply to this subpart. The following shall 
instead apply to this subpart:
    (1) All applicable exhaust emission results shall be plotted as a 
function of the mileage on the system, rounded to the nearest mile, and 
the best fit straight lines, fitted by the method of least squares, 
shall be drawn through all these data points. The emission data will be 
acceptable for use in the calculation of the deterioration factor only 
if the interpolated 4,000-mile, 50,000-mile, and full useful life points 
on this line are within the applicable emission standards in 
Secs. 86.1708 and 86.1709. For hybrid electric vehicles, the emission 
data will be acceptable for use in the calculation of the deterioration 
factor only if the engine mileage points corresponding to the 
interpolated 4,000 mile, 50,000 mile, and full useful life points of the 
vehicle on this line are within the applicable emission standards in 
Secs. 86.1708 and 86.1709. The engine mileage points shall be determined 
based on the test schedule submitted to the Administrator as required in 
Sec. 86.096-26. As an exception, the Administrator will review the data 
on a case-by-case basis and may approve its use in those instances where 
the best fit straight line crosses an applicable standard but no data 
point exceeds the standard or when the best fit straight line crosses 
the applicable standard at the 4,000-mile point but the 5,000-mile 
actual test point and the 50,000 mile and full useful life interpolated 
points are both below the standards. A multiplicative exhaust emission 
deterioration factor shall be calculated for each engine system 
combination as follows:
    (i) For engine families certified to 50,000 mile emissions 
standards: Factor = Exhaust emissions interpolated to 50,000 miles 
divided by exhaust emissions interpolated to 4,000 miles.
    (ii) For engine families certified to full useful life emissions 
standards beyond 50,000 miles: Factor = Exhaust emissions interpolated 
to the full useful life divided by exhaust emissions interpolated to 
4,000 miles.
    (2) [Reserved]
    (e) The following requirements shall be in addition to the 
provisions of Sec. 86.094-28(a)(4) and subsequent model year provisions:
    (1)(i) The regeneration exhaust emission data (diesel light-duty 
vehicles and light-duty trucks equipped with periodically regenerating 
trap oxidizer systems only) from the tests required under Sec. 86.096-
26(a)(4) and subsequent model year provisions shall be used to determine 
the regeneration exhaust emissions interpolated to the 50,000-mile 
point. The regeneration exhaust emission results shall be plotted as a 
function of the mileage on the system, rounded to the nearest mile, and 
the best fit straight lines, fitted by the method of least squares, 
shall be drawn through all these data points. The interpolated 50,000-
mile point of this line shall be used to calculate the multiplicative 
exhaust emission correction factor for each engine-system combination as 
follows:

where:

R = the ratio of the regeneration exhaust emissions interpolated to 
50,000 miles to

[[Page 992]]

the non-regeneration exhaust emissions interpolated to 50,000 miles.
n = the number of complete regenerations which occur during the 
durability test.

    (ii) The interpolated values determined in paragraph (e)(1)(i) of 
this section shall be carried out to a minimum of four places to the 
right of the decimal point before dividing one by the other to determine 
the correction factor. The results shall be rounded to three places to 
the right of the decimal point in accordance with the Rounding-Off 
Method specified in ASTM E 29-90, Standard Practice for Using 
Significant Digits in Test Data to Determine Conformance with 
Specifications (incorporated by reference; see Sec. 86.1). For 
applicability to gaseous emission standards under the 100,000 mile 
option, R will be determined based upon projected 100,000 mile 
emissions.

particulate emission limit, as appropriate) shall be the adjusted 
emissions of Sec. 86.094-28(a)(4)(ii) (A) and (B) and subsequent model 
year provisions for each emission-data vehicle. Before any emission 
value is compared with the standard (or the family particulate limit, as 
appropriate), it shall be rounded to one significant figure beyond the 
number of significant figures contained in the standard (or the family 
particulate emission limit, as appropriate) in accordance with the 
Rounding-Off Method specified in ASTM E 29-90, Standard Practice for 
Using Significant Digits in Test Data to Determine Conformance with 
Specifications (incorporated by reference; see Sec. 86.1). The rounded 
emission values may not exceed the standard (or the family particulate 
emission limit, as appropriate). Fleet average NMOG value calculations 
shall be rounded to four significant figures in accordance with the 
Rounding-Off Method specified in ASTM E 29-90, Standard Practice for

Sec. 86.1772-99  Road load power, test weight, and inertia weight class determination.

    (a) The provisions of Sec. 86.129 apply to this subpart.
    (b) The following requirements shall also apply to this subpart:
    (1) For electric and hybrid electric vehicle lines where it is 
expected that more than 33 percent of a vehicle line will be equipped 
with air conditioning, per Sec. 86.096-24(g)(2), that derives power from 
the battery pack, the road load shall be increased by the incremental 
horsepower required to operate the air conditioning unit. The 
incremental increase shall be determined by recording the difference in 
energy required for a hybrid electric vehicle under all-electric power 
to complete the running loss test fuel tank temperature profile test 
sequence without air conditioning and the same vehicle tested over the 
running loss test fuel tank temperature profile test sequence with the 
air conditioning set to the ``NORMAL'' air conditioning mode and 
adjusted to the minimum discharge air temperature and high fan speed 
over the time period needed to perform the test sequence, and converting 
this value into units of horsepower. Vehicles equipped with automatic 
temperature controlled air conditioning systems shall be operated in 
``AUTOMATIC'' temperature and fan

Sec. 86.1773-99  Test sequence; general requirements.

    (a) The provisions of Sec. 86.130 apply to this subpart.
    (b) The following additional requirements shall also apply to this 
subpart:
    (1) For purposes of determining conformity with 50  deg.F test 
requirements, the procedures set forth in paragraph (c) of this section 
shall apply. For all hybrid electric vehicles and all 1995 and 
subsequent model-year vehicles certifying to running loss and useful 
life evaporative emission standards, the test sequence specified in 
subpart B of this part shall apply.
    (2) [Reserved]
    (c)(1) Following a 12 to 36 hour cold soak at a nominal temperature 
of 50  deg.F, emissions of CO and NOX measured on the Federal 
Test Procedure (subpart B of this part), conducted at a nominal test 
temperature of 50  deg.F, shall not exceed the standards for vehicles of 
the same emission category and vehicle type subject to a cold soak and 
emission test at 68 to 86  deg.F. For all TLEVs, emissions of NMOG and 
formaldehyde at 50  deg.F shall not exceed the 50,000 mile certification 
standard multiplied by a factor of 2.0. For all LEVs, emissions of NMOG 
and formaldehyde at 50  deg.F shall not exceed the 50,000 mile 
certification standard multiplied by a factor of 2.0. For all ULEVs, 
emissions of NMOG and formaldehyde at 50  deg.F shall not exceed the 
50,000 mile certification standard multiplied by a factor of 2.0. 
Emissions of NMOG shall be multiplied by a reactivity adjustment factor, 
if any, prior to comparing with the 50,000 certification standard 
multiplied by the specified factor. The test vehicles shall not be 
subject to a diurnal heat build prior to the cold start exhaust test or 
evaporative emission testing.
    (i) For the 50  deg.F emission test, the nominal preconditioning, 
soak, and test temperatures shall be maintained within 3  deg.F of the 
nominal temperature on an average basis and within 5  deg.F of the 
nominal temperature on a continuous basis. The temperature shall be 
sampled at least once every 15 seconds during the preconditioning and 
test periods and at least once each 5 minutes during the soak period. A 
continuous strip chart recording of the temperature with these minimum 
time resolutions is an acceptable alternative to employing a data 
acquisition system.
    (ii) The test site temperature shall be measured at the inlet of the 
vehicle cooling fan used for testing.
    (iii) The test vehicle may be fueled before the preconditioning 
procedure in a fueling area maintained within a temperature range of 68 
to 86  deg.F. The preconditioning shall be conducted at a nominal 
temperature of 50  deg.F. The requirement to saturate the evaporative 
control canister(s) shall not apply.
    (iv) If a soak area remote from the test site is used, the vehicle 
may pass through an area maintained within a temperature range of 68 to 
86  deg.F during a time interval not to exceed 10 minutes. In such 
cases, the vehicle shall be restabilized to 50  deg.F by soaking the 
vehicle in the nominal 50  deg.F test area for six times as long as the 
exposure time to the higher temperature area, prior to starting the 
emission test.
    (v) The vehicle shall be approximately level during all phases of 
the test sequence to prevent abnormal fuel distribution.
    (2) Manufacturers shall demonstrate compliance with this requirement 
each year by testing at least three LDV or LDT emission data and/or 
engineering development vehicles (with at least 4000 miles) which are 
representative of the array of technologies available in that model 
year. Only TLEVs, LEVs, and ULEVs are to be considered for testing at 50 
 deg.F. It is not necessary to apply deterioration factors (DFs) to the 
50  deg.F test results to comply with this requirement. Testing at 50 
deg.F shall not be required for fuel-flexible and dual-fuel vehicles 
when operating on gasoline. Natural gas, hybrid electric and diesel-
fueled vehicles shall also be exempt from 50  deg.F testing.
    (3) The following schedule outlines the parameters to be considered 
for vehicle selection:
    (i) Fuel control system (e.g., multiport fuel injection, throttle 
body

[[Page 996]]

electronic fuel injection, sequential multiport electronic fuel 
injection, etc.);
    (ii) Catalyst system (e.g., electrically heated catalyst, close-
coupled catalyst, underfloor catalyst, etc.);
    (iii) Control system type (e.g., mass-air flow, speed density, 
etc.);
    (iv) Vehicle category (e.g., TLEV, LEV, ULEV);
    (v) Fuel type (e.g., gasoline, methanol, etc.).
    (4) The same engine family shall not be selected in the succeeding 
two years unless the manufacturer produces fewer than three engine 
families. If the manufacturer produces more than three TLEV, LEV, or 
ULEV engine families per model year, the Administrator may request 50 
deg.F testing of specific engine families. If the manufacturer provides 
a list of the TLEV, LEV, and ULEV engine families that it will certify 
for a model year and provides a description of the technologies used on 
each engine family (including the vehicle selection parameters 
information in paragraphs (c)(3) (i) through (v) of this section), the 
Administrator shall select the engine families subject to 50  deg.F 
testing within a 30 day period after receiving such a list and 
description. The Administrator may revise the engine families selected 
after the 30 day period if the information provided by the manufacturer 
does not accurately reflect the engine families actually certified by 
the manufacturer.
    (5) For the purposes of this section, the Administrator will accept 
vehicles selected and tested in accordance with the 50  deg.F testing 
procedures specified by the California Air Resources Board.
    (d) A manufacturer has the option of simulating air conditioning 
operation during testing at other ambient test conditions provided it 
can demonstrate that the vehicle tailpipe exhaust emissions are 
representative of the emissions that would result from the SC03 cycle 
test procedure and the ambient conditions of paragraph 86.161-00. The 
Administrator has approved two optional air conditioning test simulation 
procedures, AC1 and AC2, for the 2001 to 2003 model years only. If a 
manufacturer desires to conduct an alternative SC03 test simulation 
other than AC1 and AC2, or the AC1 and AC2 simulations for the 2004 and 
subsequent model years, the simulation test procedure must be approved 
in advance by the Administrator.

    (3) The Administrator may establish new reactivity adjustment 
factors pursuant to appendix XVII of this part in addition to those 
listed in paragraph (d)(2) of this section. The Administrator shall 
notify manufacturers in writing of the new reactivity adjustment factors 
within 30 days of their establishment.
    (4) The Administrator may revise any reactivity adjustment factor 
listed in paragraph (d)(2) of this section or established by the 
Administrator pursuant to appendix XVII of this part if he or she 
determines that the revised reactivity adjustment factor is more 
representative of the ozone-forming potential of vehicle NMOG emissions 
based on the best available scientific knowledge and sound engineering 
judgment. The Administrator shall notify manufacturers in writing of any 
such reactivity adjustment factor at least 3 years prior to January 1 of 
the calendar year which has the same numerical designation as the model 
year for which the revised reactivity adjustment factor first becomes 
effective. However, manufacturers may use the revised reactivity 
adjustment factor in certifying any new engine family whose 
certification application is submitted following such notification, if 
they so choose. Manufacturers may also continue to use the original 
reactivity adjustment factor for any existing engine family previously 
certified with that reactivity adjustment factor until a new durability-
data vehicle is tested for that engine family.
    (5) Manufacturers may request the use of a unique reactivity 
adjustment factor for a specific vehicle emission control technology 
category and fuel. The Administrator shall approve such requests in 
accordance with the conditions and procedures of appendix XVII of this 
part. For the purpose of calculating the reactivity adjustment factor as 
specified in appendix XVII of this part, the ``g ozone potential per g 
NMOG'' value for the vehicle emission control technology category and 
fuel system for which the manufacturer is requesting the use of a unique 
reactivity adjustment factor shall be divided by the ``g ozone potential 
per g NMOG'' value for a conventional gasoline-fueled vehicle 
established for the vehicle emission control technology category. The 
following ``g ozone potential per g NMOG'' values for conventional 
gasoline-fueled vehicle emission control technology categories have been 
established:

    Appendix III to Part 86--Constant Volume Sampler Flow Calibration

    The following calibration procedure outlines the equipment, the test 
setup configuration, and the various parameters which must be measured 
to establish the flow rate of the constant volume sampler pump. All the 
parameters related to the pump are simultaneously measured with the 
parameters related to a flowmeter which is connected in series with the 
pump. The calculated flow rate (ft 3/rev@ pump inlet absolute 
pressure and temperature) can then be plotted versus a correlation 
function which is the value of a specific combination of pump 
parameters. The linear equation which relates the pump flow and the 
correlation function is then determined. In the event that a CVS has a 
multiple speed drive, a calibration for each range should be performed.
    This calibration procedure is based on the measurement of the 
absolute values of the pump and flowmeter parameters that relate the 
flow rate at each point. Three conditions must be maintained to assure 
the accuracy and integrity of the calibration curve. First, the pump 
pressures should be measured at taps on the pump rather than at the 
external piping on the pump inlet and outlet. Pressure taps that are 
mounted at the top and bottom center of the pump drive headplate are 
exposed to the actual pump cavity pressures, and therefore reflect the 
absolute pressure differentials. Secondly, temperature stability must be 
maintained during the calibration. The laminar flowmeter is sensitive to 
inlet temperature oscillations which cause the data points to be 
scattered. Gradual changes (plus-minus 2  deg.F) in 
temperature are acceptable as long as they occur over a period of 
several minutes. Finally, all connections between the flowmeter and the 
CVS pump must be absolutely void of any leakage.
    During a CVS emissions test the measurement of these same pump 
parameters enables the user to calculate the flow rate from the 
calibration equation.
    After the calibration curve has been obtained, a verification test 
of the entire system can be performed by injecting a known mass of gas 
into the system and comparing the mass indicated by the system to the 
true mass injected. An indicated error does not necessarily mean that 
the calibration is wrong, since other factors can influence the accuracy 
of the system.

Equipment:

    The following list of equipment will be needed to perform this 
calibration procedure. Figure 1 illustrates a typical equipment 
arrangement used for calibration. All of the equipment involved should 
conform to the range and accuracy as specified in Figure 1.

Equipment List:

    1. LFE--Laminar Flowmeter
    2. Micromanometer
    3. Thermometer
    4. Timer
    5. U-Tube Manometers
    6. Temperature Indicator with type J Thermocouples
    7. A variable flow restrictor with appropriate piping to connect the 
CVS pump and LFE.
    After the system has been connected as shown in Figure 1, set the 
variable restrictor in the wide open position and run the CVS pump for 
twenty minutes. Record the calibration data.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Note: The fluid level in the manometer tube should stabilize before the reading is made and the elapsed time for
  revolution counting should be greater than 120 seconds.

    Reset the restrictor valve to a more restricted condition in an 
increment of pump inlet depression (about 4" H2O) that will 
yield a minimum of six data points for the total calibration.
    Allow the system to stabilize for 3 minutes and repeat the data 
acquisition.

Data Analysis:

    The data recorded during the calibration are to be used in the 
following calculations.
    1. The air flow rate at each test point is calculated in standard 
cubic feet per minute (Qs) from the flowmeter data using the 
manufacturer's prescribed method.
    2. The air flow rate is then converted to pump flow, Vo, in cubic 
feet per revolution at absolute pump inlet temperature and pressure.

      Vo = Qs/n  x  Tp/530  x  29.92/Pp

where:
Qs=Meter air flow rate in standard cubic feet per minute (flowmeter 
standard conditions are 70  deg.F, 29.92 ``Hg).
n=Pump speed in revolutions per minute.
Pp=Absolute pump inlet pressure, in (``Hg).
Pp=PB-PPI (SP.GR./13.57), Tp = PTI + 
460.

    3. The correlation function at each test point is then calculated 
from the calibration data, as follows:
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR06OC93.139

Pp = The pressure differential from pump inlet to 
pump outlet in (``Hg).

             Pp = Pe-Pp

Pe=Absolute pump outlet pressure, in (``Hg).

           Pp = PB + PPO (Sp. Gr./13.57)

    See Sec. 86.177-22 for other definitions.
    4. A linear least squares fit is performed to generate the 
calibration equations which have the forms

             Vo = Do-M(Xo)

                         n = A-B( Pp)

    Do, M, A, and B are the slope-intercept constants describing the 
lines.
    A CVS system that has multiple speeds should be calibrated on each 
speed used. The calibration curves generated for the ranges will be 
approximately parallel and the intercept values, Do, will 
increase as the pump flow range decreases.

[[Page 1072]]

[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR06OC93.196


    If the calibration has been performed carefully, the calculated 
Vo values from the equation will be within 
plus-minus.50% of the measured value of Vo. Values 
of M will vary from one pump to another, but values of Do for 
pumps of the same make, model, and range should agree within 
plus-minus3 percent of each other. Particulate influx from 
use will cause the pump slip to decrease as reflected by lower values 
for M. Calibrations should be performed at 0, 30, 100, 200, 400, etc. 
hours of pump operation to assure the stability of the pump slip rate. 
Analysis of mass injection data will also reflect pump slip stability.

CVS System Verification:

    The following technique can be used to verify that the CVS and 
analytical instruments can accurately measure a mass of gas that has 
been injected into the system.
    1. Obtain a small cylinder that has been charged with pure propane 
or carbon monoxide gas (caution--carbon monoxide is poisonous!). 
Critical flow orifice devices can also be used for constant flow 
metering.
    2. Determine a reference cylinder weight to the nearest 0.01 gram.
    3. Operate the CVS in the normal manner and release a quantity of 
pure propane or

[[Page 1073]]

carbon monoxide into the system during the sampling period.
    4. The calculations of Sec. 86.177-22 are performed in a normal way 
except, in the case of propane, the density of propane (17.30 grams/cu./
ft./carbon atom) is used in place of the density of exhaust 
hydrocarbons. In the case of carbon monoxide, the density of 32.97 
grams/cu. ft. is used.
    5. The gravimetric mass is subtracted from the CVS measured mass and 
then divided by the gravimetric mass to determine the percent accuracy 
of the system.
    6. The cause for any discrepancy greater than plus-minus2 
percent should be found and corrected. The following list of parametric 
errors may assist the operator in locating the cause of large errors.
    Positive Error (Indication is higher than true value):
    1. Calculated Vo is greater than actual Vo.
    a. Original calibration in error.
    2. Pump inlet temperature recorder is reading low. A 6  deg.F. 
discrepancy will give a 1 percent error.
    3. Pump inlet pressure indicator is reading high. A 3.5 in. 
H2O high reading will give 1 percent error.
    4. Background concentration reading is too low. Check analyzer zero. 
Check leakage at floor inlet.
    5. Analyzer is reading high. Check span.
    6. Barometer reading is in error (too high). Barometric pressure 
reading should be gravity and temperature corrected.
    7. Revolution counter is reading high (Check pump speed and 
counters.)
    8. Mixture is stratified causing the sample to be higher than the 
average concentration in the mixture. Negative Error (Indication is 
lower than true value):
    1. Calculated Vo is less than actual Vo.
    a. Original calibration in error.
    b. Pump clearances decreased due to influx of some surface adherent 
material. Recalibration may be needed.
    2. Pump inlet temperature recorder is reading high.
    3. Pump inlet pressure indicator is reading low.
    4. Background concentration reading is too high.
    5. Analyzer is reading low.
    6. Barometer reading is in error (too low).
    7. Revolution counter is reading low.
    8. There is a leak into the sampling system. Pressure check the 
lines and fittings on the intake side of sample transfer pumps on both 
the CVS and analyzer console.

  Appendix XIV to Part 86--Determination of Acceptable Durability Test 
Schedule for Light-Duty Vehicles and Light Light-Duty Trucks Certifying 
                 to the Provisions of Part 86, Subpart R

    A manufacturer may determine mileage test intervals for durability-
data vehicles subject to the conditions specified in Sec. 86.1726. The 
following procedure shall be used to determine if the schedule is 
acceptable to the Administrator:
    1. Select exhaust system mileage test points and maintenance mileage 
test points for proposed (prop) schedule.
    2. Calculate the sums of the squares corrected to the mean of the 
system mileages at the proposed test points:

Aprop = [<3-ln-grk-S>(Xp)2 - 
((<3-ln-grk-S>Xp)2 / 
Np))prop

Where:

Xp = Individual mileages at which the vehicle will be tested.
Np = Total number of tests (including before and after 
maintenance tests).

(Subscript ``p'' refers to proposed test schedule).

    3. Determine exhaust system mileage test points and maintenance 
mileage test points based on testing at five thousand mile intervals 
from 5,000 miles through the final testing point and maintenance mileage 
test points selected for the proposed schedule in step 1 of this 
appendix. This schedule will be designated as the standard (std) test 
schedule.
    4. Calculate the sums of squares corrected to the mean of the 
standard schedule:

Bstd = [<3-ln-grk-S>(Xs)2 - 
((<3-ln-grk-S>Xs)2 / Ns))std

Where:
Xs = Individual mileages at which the vehicle will be tested.
Ns = Total number of tests (including before and after 
maintenance).

(Subscript ``s'' refers to standard test schedule).
    5. Refer to table I and determine tp at (Np - 
2)prop degrees of freedom and ts at (Ns 
- 2)std.
    6. If (Aprop)\1/2\  tp / 
ts x (Bstd)\1/2\ the proposed plan is 
acceptable.

Appendix XVI to Part 86--Pollutant Mass Emissions Calculation Procedure 
for Gaseous-Fueled Vehicles and for Vehicles Equipped With Periodically 
Regenerating Trap Oxidizer Systems Certifying to the Provisions of Part 
                              86, Subpart R

    (a) Gaseous-Fueled Vehicle Pollutant Mass Emission Calculation 
Procedure.
    (1) For all TLEVs, LEVs, and ULEVs, the calculation procedures 
specified in Chapter 5 of the California Regulatory Requirements 
Applicable to the National Low Emission Vehicle Program (October, 1996) 
shall apply. These procedures are incorporated by reference (see 
Sec. 86.1).
    (b) Pollutant Mass Emissions Calculation Procedure for Vehicles 
Equipped with Periodically Regenerating Trap Oxidizer Systems.
    (1) Exhaust Emissions. (i) The provisions of Sec. 86.1777 apply to 
vehicles equipped with periodically regenerating trap oxidizer systems, 
except that the following shall apply instead of the requirements in 
Sec. 86.144-94(a):
    (ii) The final reported test results shall be computed by the use of 
the following formula:
    (iii) For light-duty vehicles and light-duty trucks:

Ywm = 0.43 ((Yct + Ys) / (Dct + Ds)) + 0.57 ((Yht + Ys) / 
(Dht + Ds)).

    (iv) For purposes of adjusting emissions for regeneration:

Re = ((Yr1 - Yct) + (Yr2 - Ys) + (Yr3 - Yht)) / (Dct + Ds + Dht).
Yr = Ywm + Re.

Where:

Ywm = Weighted mass emissions of each pollutant, i.e., HC, CO, 
NOX or CO , in grams per vehicle mile.

cold start test, in grams per test phase.
Yht = Mass emissions as calculated from the ``transient'' phase of the 
hot start test in grams per test phase.

cold start test, in miles.
Dht = The measured distance from the ``transient'' phase of the hot 
start test, in miles.
Ds = The measured driving distance from the ``stabilized'' phase of the 
cold start test, in miles.
Yr = Regeneration emission test.
Re = Mass emissions of each pollutant attributable to regeneration in 
grams per mile.
Yr1 = Mass emissions, during a regeneration emission test, as calculated 
from the ``transient'' phase of the cold start test, in grams per test 
phase.
Yr2 = Mass emissions, during a regeneration emission test, as calculated 
from the ``stabilized'' phase of the cold start test, in grams per test 
phase.
Yr3 = Mass emissions, during a regeneration emission test, as calculated 
from the ``transient'' phase of the hot start test in grams per test 
phase.
    (2) Particulate Emissions. (i) The provisions of Sec. 86.1778 apply 
to vehicles equipped with periodically regenerating trap oxidizer 
systems, except that the following shall apply instead of the 
requirements Sec. 86.145-82(a):
    (ii) The final reported test results for the mass particulate (Mp) 
in grams/mile shall be computed as follows.
    (iii) For purposes of adjusting emissions for regeneration:

Mp = 0.43(Mp1 + Mp2) / (Dct + Ds) + 0.57 (Mp3 + Mp2) / (Dht + Ds)
Re = ((Mpr1 - Mp1) + (Mpr2 - Mp2) + (Mpr3 - Mp3) / (Dct + Ds + Dht)
Mpr = Mp + Re

Where:
(1) Mp1 = Mass of particulate determined from the ``transient'' phase of 
the cold start test, in grams per test phase. (See Sec. 86.110-94(d)(1) 
for determination.)
(2) Mp2 = Mass of particulate determined from the ``stabilized'' phase 
of the cold start test, in grams per test phase. (See Sec. 86.110-
94(d)(1) for determination.)
(3) Mp3 = Mass of particulate determined from the ``transient'' phase of 
the hot start test, in grams per test phase. (See Sec. 86.110-94(d)(1) 
for determination.)
(4) Dct = The measured driving distance from the ``transient'' phase of 
the cold start test, in miles.

(5) Ds = The measured driving distance from the ``stabilized'' phase of 
the cold start test, in miles.
(6) Dht = The measured driving distance from the ``transient'' phase of 
the hot start test, in miles.
(7) Mpr = Regeneration emission test
(8) Re = Mass of particulate attributable to regeneration in grams/mile.
(9) Mpr1 = Mass of particulate determined, during a regeneration 
emission test, from the ``transient'' phase of the cold start test in 
grams per test phase. (See Sec. 86.110-94(d)(1) for determination.)
(10) Mpr2 = Mass of particulate determined, during a regeneration 
emission test, from ``stabilized'' phase of the cold start test, in 
grams per test phase. (See Sec. 86.110-94(d)(1) for determination.)
(11) Mpr3 = Mass of particulate determined, during a regeneration 
emission test, from the ``transient'' phase of the hot start test, in 
grams per test phase. (See Sec. 86.110-94(d)(1) for determination.)

  Appendix XVII to Part 86--Procedure for Determining Vehicle Emission 
   Control Technology Category/Fuel Reactivity Adjustment Factors for 
   Light-Duty Vehicles and Light Light-Duty Trucks Certifying to the 
                    Provisions of Part 86, Subpart R

    The following procedure shall be used by the Administrator to 
establish the reactivity adjustment factor for exhaust emissions of non-
methane organic gases (NMOG) and establish the ``methane reactivity 
adjustment factor'' for exhaust methane emissions from natural gas 
vehicles, for the purpose of certifying a vehicle of specific emission 
control technology category and fuel for the National LEV program 
provisions of subpart R of this part.
    (a) The Administrator shall determine representative speciated NMOG 
exhaust emission profiles for light-duty conventional gasoline-fueled 
TLEVs, LEVs, and ULEVs according to the following conditions:
    (1) All testing will be conducted using a specified gasoline blend 
representative of

[[Page 1084]]

commercial gasoline and having the specifications listed in 
Sec. 86.1771.
    (2) Speciated NMOG profiles shall be obtained from a statistically 
valid number of TLEVs, LEVs, and ULEVs.
    (3) The speciated NMOG profiles shall identify and quantify, in 
units of g/mile or mg/mile, as many constituents as possible in 
accordance with the procedures specified in Chapter 5 of the California 
Regulatory Requirements Applicable to the National Low Emission Vehicle 
Program (October, 1996). These procedures are incorporated by reference 
(see Sec. 86.1).
    (b) The ``g ozone potential per mile'' of each NMOG identified in 
the speciated profile shall be determined by multiplying the ``g/mile 
NMOG'' emission value of the constituent NMOG by its maximum incremental 
reactivity in paragraph (j) of this appendix.
    (c) The ``total g ozone potential per mile'' of NMOG exhaust 
emissions from the vehicle/fuel system shall be the sum of all the 
constituent NMOG ``g ozone potential per mile'' values calculated in 
paragraph (b) of this appendix.
    (d) The ``g ozone potential per g NMOG'' for the vehicle/fuel system 
shall be determined by dividing the ``total g ozone potential per mile'' 
value calculated in paragraph (c) of this appendix by the ``total g/mile 
of NMOG emissions''.
    (e) For light-duty candidate vehicle/fuel systems not powered by 
conventional gasoline, the Administrator shall establish ``reactivity 
adjustment factors'' calculated from exhaust emission profiles derived 
according to the same conditions specified in paragraphs (a)(1) and 
(a)(2) of this appendix.
    (f) The ``g ozone potential per g NMOG'' for candidate vehicle/fuel 
systems not powered by conventional gasoline shall be determined 
according to paragraphs (b), (c), and (d) of this appendix.
    (g)(1) The candidate vehicle/fuel ``reactivity adjustment factor'' 
shall be determined by dividing the ``g ozone potential per g NMOG'' 
calculated in paragraph (f) of this appendix by the ``g ozone potential 
per g NMOG'' value for the vehicle in the same emission control 
technology category operated on conventional gasoline. The ``g ozone 
potential per g NMOG'' values for conventional gasoline vehicles are 
listed in Sec. 86.1777(b)(5) or shall be established by the 
Administrator pursuant to this appendix. For candidate vehicle/fuel 
systems powered by methanol or liquefied petroleum gas, the quotient 
calculated above shall be multiplied by 1.1. The resulting value shall 
constitute the ``reactivity adjustment factor'' for the methanol or 
liquefied petroleum gas-powered vehicle/fuel system.
    (2) For candidate vehicle/fuel systems operating on natural gas, a 
``methane reactivity adjustment factor'' shall be calculated by dividing 
the maximum incremental reactivity value for methane given in paragraph 
(j) of this appendix by the ``g ozone potential per g NMOG'' value for 
the vehicle in the same emission control technology category operated on 
conventional gasoline as listed in Sec. 86.1777(b)(5) or established by 
the Administrator pursuant to this appendix.
    (h) The Administrator shall assign a reactivity adjustment factor 
unique to a specific engine family at the request of a vehicle 
manufacturer provided that each of the following occurs:
    (1)(i) The manufacturer submits speciated NMOG exhaust emission 
profiles to the Administrator obtained from emission testing a minimum 
of four different vehicles representative of vehicles that will be 
certified in the engine family. The test vehicles shall include the 
official emission-data vehicle(s) for the engine family, and the mileage 
accumulation of each vehicle shall be at or greater than 4000 miles. One 
speciated profile shall be submitted for each test vehicle. Emission 
levels of each constituent NMOG shall be measured according to Chapter 5 
of the California Regulatory Requirements Applicable to the National Low 
Emission Vehicle Program (October, 1996). These procedures are 
incorporated by reference (see Sec. 86.1). For the emission-data 
vehicle(s), the speciated profile(s) shall be obtained from the same 
test used to obtain the official exhaust emission test results for the 
emission-data vehicle at the 4,000 mile test point. The manufacturer 
shall calculate ``g ozone potential per g NMOG'' values for each 
speciated NMOG exhaust emission profile in accordance with the 
procedures specified in paragraphs (b), (c), and (d) of this appendix. 
By using these ``g ozone potential per g NMOG'' values, the manufacturer 
shall calculate a ``reactivity adjustment factor'' for each test vehicle 
in accordance with the procedure specified in paragraph (g) of this 
appendix. A ``reactivity adjustment factor'' for the engine family shall 
be calculated by taking the arithmetic mean of the ``reactivity 
adjustment factor'' obtained for each test vehicle. The 95 percent upper 
confidence bound (95% UCB) shall be calculated according to the 
equation:
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR06JN97.003

Where:

RAFm = mean ``reactivity adjustment factor'' calculated for 
the engine family.
RAFi = ``reactivity adjustment factor'' calculated for the 
i'th test vehicle.
n = number of test vehicles.

    (ii) The 95 percent upper confidence bound of the ``reactivity 
adjustment factor'' for the engine family shall be less than or equal to

[[Page 1085]]

115 percent of the engine family ``reactivity adjustment factor.''
    (2) The manufacturer submits an ``ozone deterioration factor'' for 
the engine family. To determine the ``ozone deterioration factor,'' the 
manufacturer shall perform two tests at each mileage interval for one or 
more durability vehicle(s) tested in accordance with the procedures and 
conditions specified in subpart R of this part for calculating mass 
deterioration factors. The Administrator shall approve the use of other 
mileage intervals and procedures if the manufacturer can demonstrate 
that equivalently representative ``ozone deterioration factors'' are 
obtained. One speciated profile shall be submitted for each test. 
Emission levels of each constituent NMOG shall be measured according to 
Chapter 5 of the California Regulatory Requirements Applicable to the 
National Low Emission Vehicle Program (October, 1996). These procedures 
are incorporated by reference (see Sec. 86.1). A mean g/mi NMOG mass 
value and a mean ``g ozone per g NMOG'' value shall be calculated by 
taking the arithmetic mean of each measurement from the speciated 
profiles. These results shall be multiplied together to obtain a mean 
``total g ozone potential per mile'' value at each mileage interval. A 
mean ``ozone deterioration factor'' shall be calculated in accordance 
with the procedures in Sec. 86.1777 and this appendix except that the 
mean total ``g ozone potential per mile'' value determined at each 
mileage interval shall be used in place of measured mass emissions. If 
the ``ozone deterioration factor'' is determined to be less than 1.00, 
the ``ozone deterioration factor'' shall be assigned a value of 1.00. 
The ``ozone deterioration factor'' shall be multiplied by the product of 
the official exhaust NMOG mass emission results at the 4000 mile test 
point and the mean ``reactivity adjustment factor'' for the engine 
family to obtain the NMOG certification levels used to determine 
compliance with the NMOG emission standards.
    (3) The speciated profiles, mean ``reactivity adjustment factor'' 
for the engine family, and ``ozone deterioration factor'' are provided 
to the Administrator with the certification application for the engine 
family.
    (i) Gasoline meeting the specifications listed in the following 
tables shall be used to determine the ``g ozone potential per g NMOG'' 
of conventional gasoline (the test methods used for each fuel property 
shall be the same as the test method for the identical fuel property 
listed in Sec. 86.1771):

    (j) The maximum incremental reactivities to be used in paragraph (b) 
of this appendix are provided in the table in this paragraph (j). Any 
manufacturer which intends to use the table shall submit to the 
Administrator a list which provides the specific organic gases measured 
by the manufacturer and the maximum incremental reactivity value 
assigned to each organic gas prior to or with the submittal of a request 
for the use of a reactivity adjustment factor unique to a specific 
engine family. The Administrator may deny such requests if he or she 
determines that the maximum incremental reactivity value assignments are 
made incorrectly. The table follows:

Appendix XVIII to Part 86--Statistical Outlier Identification Procedure 
 for Light-Duty Vehicles and Light Light-Duty Trucks Certifying to the 
                    Provisions of Part 86, Subpart R

    Residual normal deviates to indicate outliers are used routinely and 
usefully in analyzing regression data, but suffer theoretical 
deficiencies if statistical significance tests are required. 
Consequently, the procedure for testing for outliers outlined by 
Snedecor and Cochran, 6th ed., Statistical Methods, PP. 157-158, will be 
used. The method will be described generally, then by appropriate 
formulae, and finally a numerical example will be given.
    (a) Linearity is assumed (as in the rest of the deterioration factor 
calculation procedure), and each contaminant is treated separately. The 
procedure is as follows:
    (1) Calculate the deterioration factor regression as usual, and 
determine the largest residual in absolute value. Then recalculate the 
regression with the suspected outlier omitted. From the new regression 
line calculate the residual at the deleted point, denoted as 
(yi - yi'). Obtain a statistic by dividing 
(yi - yi') by the square root of the estimated 
variance of (yi - yi'). Find the tailed 
probability, p, from the t-distribution corresponding to the quotient 
(double-tailed), with n-3 degrees of freedom, with n the original sample 
size.
    (2) This probability, p, assumes the suspected outlier is randomly 
selected, which is not true. Therefore, the outlier will be rejected 
only if 1 - (1-p)n  0.05.
    (3) The procedure will be repeated for each contaminant individually 
until the above procedure indicates no outliers are present.
    (4) When an outlier is found, the vehicle test-log will be examined. 
If an unusual vehicle malfunction is indicated, data for all 
contaminants at that test-point will be rejected; otherwise, only the 
identified outlier will be omitted in calculating the deterioration 
factor.
    (b) Procedure for the calculation of the t-Statistic for 
Deterioration Data Outlier Test.
    (1) Given a set of n points, (x1, y1), 
(x2, y2) * * * (xn, yn).

Where:

xi is the mileage of the ith data point.
yi is the emission of the ith data point.
Assume model:

y = a + (x - x) + 

    (2)(i) Calculate the regression line.

y = a + b(x - x)

    (ii) Suppose the absolute value of the ith residual

(yi - yi) is the largest.

    (3)(i) Calculate the regression line with the ith point 
deleted.

y' = a' + b'(x - x)
    (ii)
    [GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR06JN97.004
    
Where:

y1 is the observed suspected outlier.
y'i is the predicted value with the suspected outlier 
deleted.
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR06JN97.005

(x is calculated without the suspected outlier)
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR06JN97.006

    (iii) Find p from the t-statistic table

Where:

p = prob ( t(n-3)   t)
t(n-3) is a t-distributed variable with n-3 degrees of freedom.

    (iv) yi is an outlier if 1-(1-p)n  .05
