A manufacturer may not include an engine family certified to the optional NOx emission standards in the ABT programs for NOx but may include it for particulates. |
| O On-Board Diagnostic (OBD) requirements are to be followed per title 13, CCR, section 1971.1 with the exception of the NOx emission threshold malfunction criteria for all applicable monitors, in which case a malfunction criterion of 0.4 g/bhp-hr NOx shall be used (i.e., the OBD system is required to detect a malfunction before NOx emissions exceed 0.4 g/bhp-hr). |
|
| 1Seven of the largest heavy-duty diesel engine manufacturers will be implementing measures to reduce emissions beginning October 1, 2002, to meet the requirements of the Heavy-Duty Diesel Engine Settlement Agreements reached with the ARB. The Heavy-Duty Diesel Engine Settlements were agreements reached in response to lawsuits brought by the United States Environmental Protection Agency and violations alleged by the ARB pertaining to excess in-use emissions caused by the use of defeat devices and unacceptable algorithms. Navistar signed its Settlement Agreement on October 22, 1998. Cummins, Detroit Diesel Corporation, Caterpillar, Volvo, Mack and Renault signed their Settlement Agreements on December 15, 1998. |
(B) Phase-in Options. 1. Early NOx compliant engines. For model years 2007, 2008, and 2009, a manufacturer may, at their option, certify one or more of their engine families to the combined NOx plus NMHC standard or FEL applicable to model year 2006 engines under section 1956.8 (a)(2)(A), in lieu of the separate NOx and NMHC standards or FELs applicable to the 2007 through 2023 model years, specified in section 1956.8 (a)(2)(A). Each engine certified under this phase-in option must comply with all other emission requirements applicable to model year 2007 engines. To qualify for this option, a manufacturer must satisfy the U.S.-directed production requirement of certifying no more than 50 percent of engines to the NOx plus NMHC standards or FELs applicable to 2006 engines, as specified in 40 Code of Federal Regulations, part 86, section 86.007-11(g)(1), as adopted January 18, 2001. In addition, a manufacturer may reduce the quantity of engines that are required to be phased-in using the early certification credit program specified in 40 Code of Federal Regulations, part 86, section 86.007-11(g)(2), as adopted January 18, 2001, and the "Blue Sky" engine program specified in 40 Code of Federal Regulations, part 86, section 86.007-11(g)(4), as adopted January 18, 2001.2. Early PM compliant engines. A manufacturer certifying engines to the 2007 through 2023 model year PM standard listed in section 1956.8(a)(2)(A) (without using credits, as determined in any averaging, banking, or trading program described in "California Exhaust Emission Standards and Test Procedures for 1985 and Subsequent Model Heavy-Duty Diesel Engines and Vehicles," to comply with the standards) before model year 2007 may reduce the number of engines that are required to meet the 2007 through 2023 model year PM standard listed in section 1956.8(a)(2)(A) in model year 2007, 2008 and/or 2009. To qualify for this option, a manufacturer must satisfy the PM emission requirements pursuant to the methods detailed in 40 Code of Federal Regulations, part 86, section 86.007-11 (g)(2)(ii), as adopted January 18, 2001.(C)1. Except as provided in subsection (a)(2)(C)2 and (a)(2)(F) below, the exhaust emissions from new 2024 through 2026 model heavy-duty diesel engines, urban bus engines, heavy-duty natural gas-fueled and liquefied-petroleum-gas-fueled engines derived from diesel-cycle engines, and heavy-duty methanol-fueled diesel engines, in all cases engines used in heavy-duty vehicles over 14,000 pounds GVWR, shall not exceed: Exhaust Emission Standards for 2024 through 2026 Model Light Heavy-Duty Engines, Medium Heavy-Duty Engines and Heavy Heavy-Duty Engines (g/bhp-hr)

2. 2024 through 2026 model year heavy-duty diesel engines rated at or greater than 525 bhp maximum power as defined in 40 CFR section 1065.510, as amended March 10, 2021 (Pre-publication), incorporated by reference herein. a. In lieu of compliance with the requirements specified in subsection (a)(2)(C)1 above, a manufacturer may elect to certify a heavy-duty engine family or families rated at or above 525 bhp by: i. submitting the federal engine family certification approval (e.g., federal certificate of conformity) for the applicable engine family or families and complying with all federal requirements for heavy-duty engines,ii. demonstrating compliance with the Heavy-Duty Diesel Engine Idling Requirements for that model year as provided in subsection (a)(6) below, andiii. providing emission warranty requirements for that model year as specified in 13 CCR section 2036.b. A manufacturer is only eligible to utilize this option if it meets the criteria identified in subsections (a)(2)(C)2.b.i to ii below. i. The manufacturer must have certified and sold heavy-duty diesel engines rated at or above 525 bhp maximum power in California for either the 2018 or 2019 model year.ii. The maximum number of heavy-duty diesel engines covered by engine families certified under this provision that a manufacturer may sell in California in each applicable model year under this provision must not exceed 1.10 times that manufacturer's 2018 or 2019 model year California sales volume of engines rated at or above 525 bhp, whichever is greater. 3.Legacy Engine Option. For 2024, 2025, and 2026 model year heavy-duty diesel engine families rated below 525 bhp maximum power as defined in 40 CFR § 1065.510, as amended March 10, 2021 (Pre-publication), incorporated by reference herein, a manufacturer may elect to certify a heavy-duty diesel engine family or families with 0.100 < FTP NOx FEL [LESS THAN EQUAL TO] 0.20 g/bhp-hr, and 0.005 < FTP PM FEL [LESS THAN EQUAL TO] 0.01 g/bhp-hr if it meets the criteria set forth below in subparagraphs a. and b. below:a. The engine family meets the applicable regulatory requirements specified in title 13, CCR, section 1956.8 with the following allowances:i. The low-load cycle emission standards in title 13, CCR, section 1956.8(a)(2)(C)1 would not be applicable.ii. In lieu of meeting the requirements specified in subparagraph § 86.1370.B.6 of the "California Exhaust Emission Standards and Test Procedures for 2004 and Subsequent Model Heavy-Duty Diesel Engines and Vehicles," as incorporated by reference in title 13, CCR, section 1956.8(b), the engine family must comply with the requirements for a 2023 model year engine family, as set forth in subparagraphs § 86.1370.A through § 86.1370.B.5 of the "California Exhaust Emission Standards and Test Procedures for 2004 and Subsequent Model Heavy-Duty Diesel Engines and Vehicles," as incorporated by reference in title 13, CCR, section 1956.8(b).iii. In lieu of meeting the requirements specified in subparagraph § 86.004-26.B of the "California Exhaust Emission Standards and Test Procedures for 2004 and Subsequent Model Heavy-Duty Diesel Engines and Vehicles," as incorporated by reference in title 13, CCR, section 1956.8(b), the engine family must comply with the requirements for a 2023 model year engine family, as set forth in subparagraph § 86.004-26.A of the "California Exhaust Emission Standards and Test Procedures for 2004 and Subsequent Model Heavy-Duty Diesel Engines and Vehicles," as incorporated by reference in title 13, CCR, section 1956.8(b).iv. Comply with the heavy-duty OBD requirements specified in title 13, CCR, sections 1971.1 and 1971.5 applicable to a 2023 model year engine family.b. A manufacturer is only eligible to utilize this option if it meets all of the criteria identified in subparagraphs i through vi below.i. The manufacturer must certify the engine family subject to the averaging, trading, and banking provisions in section § 86.xxx-15.B.3 of the "California Exhaust Emission Standards and Test Procedures for 2004 and Subsequent Model Heavy-Duty Diesel Engines and Vehicles," as incorporated by reference in title 13, CCR, section 1956.8(b).ii. The maximum family emission limit for the engine family must not exceed the specified values in section § 86.xxx-15.B.3.(i) of the "California Exhaust Emission Standards and Test Procedures for 2004 and Subsequent Model Heavy-Duty Diesel Engines and Vehicles," as incorporated by reference in title 13, CCR, section 1956.8(b).iii.Procedure to Offset Deficit Balance. The manufacturer must offset its model year NOx and PM deficit balance generated by legacy engines by using credits from the heavy-duty zero-emission averaging set described in section § 86.xxx-15.B.3.(j) of the "California Exhaust Emission Standards and Test Procedures for 2004 and Subsequent Model Heavy-Duty Diesel Engines and Vehicles," as incorporated by reference in title 13, CCR, section 1956.8(b). 1.Credits from the Same Averaging Set. If a sufficient quantity of heavy-duty zero-emission NOx or PM credits are not available, or are only available for a cost exceeding $4,000 (for enough NOx or PM credits to offset one medium heavy-duty legacy engine), the manufacturer may submit a plan for Executive Officer approval to use credits from the same averaging set described in section § 86.xxx-15.B.3.(a) of the "California Exhaust Emission Standards and Test Procedures for 2004 and Subsequent Model Heavy-Duty Diesel Engines and Vehicles," as incorporated by reference in title 13, CCR, section 1956.8(b), to offset any remaining model year deficit balance generated by legacy engines. The plan must include information describing the manufacturer's attempts to purchase heavy-duty zero-emission NOx or PM credits from all manufacturers who have certified heavy-duty zero-emission vehicles or powertrains with CARB and that the manufacturer was denied a fair market offer to purchase such credits (i.e., such credits were only available at a cost exceeding $4,000 for enough NOx or PM credits to offset one medium heavy-duty legacy engine). The Executive Officer will base his or her determination upon the information included in the plan and the exercise of good engineering judgment that the information substantiates that sufficient heavy-duty zero-emission NOx or PM credits were not available or were only available at a cost exceeding $4,000 (for enough NOx or PM credits to offset one medium heavy-duty legacy engine).2.Carryover to the 2026 Model Year. If credits from the same averaging set are not available, the manufacturer may carryover the NOx or PM deficit balance generated by legacy engines until the end of the 2026 model year, provided the manufacturer offsets the remaining legacy engine generated deficit balance times 1.25 with credits from the heavy-duty zero-emission averaging set or the same averaging set described in section § 86.xxx-15.B.3.(a) of the "California Exhaust Emission Standards and Test Procedures for 2004 and Subsequent Model Heavy-Duty Diesel Engines and Vehicles," as incorporated by reference in title 13, CCR, section 1956.8(b) by the end of the 2026 model year. For example, if the deficit carried over from the 2025 model year to the 2026 model year is 1 Mg, the manufacturer would need to offset the deficit with 1.25 Mg by the end of the 2026 model year.3.Projects Targeted at California Disadvantaged Communities. If at the end of the 2026 model year, a sufficient quantity of heavy-duty zero-emission NOx or PM credits are not available for the manufacturer to offset the remaining legacy engine generated deficit balance times 1.25, the manufacturer must take all the actions in A. to C. below for the remaining NOx or PM balance. For example, if the deficit balance is 1 Mg NOx, the manufacturer would need to offset the deficit balance with 1.25 Mg NOx. As an option, the manufacturer may utilize this provision in the 2024 and 2025 model years if a sufficient quantity of heavy-duty zero-emission NOx or PM credits are not available for the manufacturer to offset the remaining legacy engine generated deficit balance times 1.25. For example, if the deficit balance is 1 Mg NOx, the manufacturer would need to offset the deficit balance with 1.25 Mg NOx.
A. Provide documentation to the Executive Officer substantiating that the manufacturer has attempted to purchase heavy-duty NOx or PM credits from all manufacturers with such credits and was denied a fair market offer; i.e., exceeding $4,000 for enough NOx or PM credits to offset one medium heavy-duty legacy engine.B. Submit a plan for Executive Officer approval for projects targeted at California disadvantaged communities and that are sufficient to offset the excess emissions within five years. The plan must include project descriptions and budgets and a demonstration that the projects will achieve reductions required. The Executive Officer will base his or her determination upon the documentation provided by the manufacturer and the exercise of good engineering judgment that the plan would benefit disadvantaged communities, and would fully offset the excess emissions due to the credit deficit balance within five years. The manufacturer may submit contingency plans to be assessed and approved on the same standard as set forth in this subsection.C. At the end of the five-year period, submit information documenting that the excess emissions have been offset. Failure to do so means that legacy engines would be subject to the provisions of § 86.004-15.A.(b)(5) of the "California Exhaust Emission Standards and Test Procedures for 2004 and Subsequent Model Heavy-Duty Diesel Engines and Vehicles," as incorporated by reference in title 13, CCR, section 1956.8(b).4.Carryover to the 2025 Model Year. The manufacturer may carry over the NOx or PM deficit balance generated by legacy engines from the 2024 model year to the 2025 model year, provided the manufacturer offsets the deficit balance with credits from the heavy-duty zero-emission averaging set. For example, if the deficit balance carried over from the 2024 model year to the 2025 model year is 1 Mg, the manufacturer would need to offset the deficit with 1 Mg of heavy-duty zero-emission averaging set credits by the end of the 2025 model year.iv.Legacy Engine Sales Limits. A manufacturer may choose Option 1 or, if eligible, Option 2, and must remain in the same chosen option for model years 2024, 2025, and 2026. Option 2 is only available to a certifying manufacturer if it certifies medium heavy-duty diesel engines in addition to certifying products in another heavy-duty diesel primary intended service class for model years 2024 and 2025. For example, a manufacturer is eligible to use this option if it certifies both medium heavy-duty diesel engines and heavy heavy-duty diesel engines in the 2024 and 2025 model years. For both Options 1 and 2, the legacy engine sales limits in subsections 1 and 2 below are based on the total actual California sales of heavy-duty diesel engines, which is the combined total of all light heavy-duty (including medium-duty engines), medium heavy-duty, and heavy heavy-duty diesel engines that are sold in California. 1.Option 1. For each certifying heavy-duty diesel engine manufacturer, the total California sales volume of legacy engines certified under this provision may not exceed 45 percent of the manufacturer's total actual California sales of heavy-duty diesel engines for 2024 model year, and 25 percent of the manufacturer's total actual California sales of heavy-duty diesel engines for 2025 model year, and 10 percent of the manufacturer's total actual California sales of heavy-duty diesel engines for 2026 model year. For example, a manufacturer that sells a total of 1,000 heavy-duty diesel engines in California in 2024 model year would be allowed to sell up to 450 heavy-duty diesel legacy engines for that model year in California. If a manufacturer exceeds the legacy engine sales limits in Option 1 for a given model year, the maximum percentage exceeding the allowable sales limits without being considered non-compliant in engine sales is 1 percent above a given legacy engine sales limit. The excess NOx and PM emissions from this percentage of heavy-duty legacy engines exceeding the allowable legacy engine sales limits must be offset at 4 times the deficit balance. For example, if the deficit balance of the percentage above a given legacy engine sales limit is 1 Mg NOx, the manufacturer would need to offset the deficit with 4 Mg NOx. All legacy engine sales above the legacy engine sales limits in Option 1 plus the 1 percent sales exceedance will be considered non-compliant engine sales. For example, if at the end of 2024 model year, a manufacturer using Option 1 determines that it has sold 1,000 heavy-duty diesel engines in California of which 500 are legacy engines, then the manufacturer must offset the deficit from 450 legacy engines at the normal rate (as used in subsection (a)(2)(C)3.b.iii. Procedure to Offset Deficit Balance) plus the deficit from 10 legacy engines (i.e., 1,000 engines x 1 percent) at 4 times the normal rate. The remaining 40 legacy engines would be considered non-compliant.
2.Option 2. The following requirements apply to each eligible certifying heavy-duty diesel engine manufacturer using Option 2. A. The total California sales volume of medium heavy-duty diesel legacy engines under this provision may not exceed 60 percent of the manufacturer's total actual California sales of heavy-duty diesel engines for 2024 model year, and 60 percent of the manufacturer's total actual California sales of heavy-duty diesel engines for 2025 model year. No legacy engine sales are allowed in 2026 model year. For example, a manufacturer that sells a total of 1,000 heavy-duty diesel engines in California in 2024 model year would be allowed to sell up to 600 medium heavy-duty diesel legacy engines for that model year in California.B. The total combined California sales volume of light heavy-duty and heavy heavy-duty diesel legacy engines certified under this provision may not exceed 15 percent of the manufacturer's total actual California sales of heavy-duty diesel engines for 2024 model year and 8 percent of the manufacturer's total actual California sales of heavy-duty diesel engines for 2025 model year. No legacy engine sales are allowed in 2026 model year. For example, a manufacturer that sells a total of 1,000 heavy-duty diesel engines in California in 2024 model year may sell up to 150 light heavy-duty and heavy heavy-duty diesel legacy engines combined for that model year in California.C. If a manufacturer exceeds the legacy engine sales limits in Option 2 for 2024 or 2025 model years, the maximum percentage exceeding the allowable sales limits without being considered non-compliant is 5 percent for medium heavy-duty diesel engines and 1 percent for the combined light heavy-duty and heavy heavy-duty diesel engines above a given legacy engine sales limit. The excess NOx and PM emissions from these percentages of heavy-duty legacy engines exceeding the allowable legacy engine sales limits must be offset at 4 times the deficit balance. For example, if the deficit balance of the percentage above a given legacy engine sales limit is 1 Mg NOx, the manufacturer would need to offset the deficit with 4 Mg NOx. All legacy engine sales above the legacy engine sales limits in Option 2 plus the allowed percent sales exceedance will be considered non-compliant engine sales. For example, if at the end of 2024 model year, a manufacturer using Option 2 determines that it has sold 1,000 heavy-duty diesel engines in California of which 660 are medium heavy-duty diesel legacy engines and 150 are the combined light heavy-duty and heavy heavy-duty diesel legacy engines, then the manufacturer must offset the deficit from 600 medium heavy-duty diesel legacy engines and 150 light heavy-duty and heavy heavy-duty diesel engines at the normal rate plus the deficit from 50 medium heavy-duty diesel legacy engines (i.e., 1,000 engines x 5 percent) at 4 times the normal rate. The remaining 10 medium heavy-duty diesel legacy engines would be considered non-compliant.v. NOx and PM deficits generated by legacy engines are subject to the provisions of § 86.004-15.A.(b)(5) of the "California Exhaust Emission Standards and Test Procedures for 2004 and Subsequent Model Heavy-Duty Diesel Engines and Vehicles," as incorporated by reference in title 13, CCR, section 1956.8(b).vi. In order to certify legacy engines in a particular model year, a manufacturer must also certify one or more heavy-duty diesel engine families subject to the standards in title 13, CCR, section 1956.8(a)(2)(C)1 in the same model year. For the 2024 model year, a manufacturer may certify legacy engine families prior to certifying at least one engine family subject to the standards in title 13, CCR, section 1956.8(a)(2)(C)1. Failure to certify a 2024 model year engine family to the standards in title 13, CCR, section 1956.8(a)(2)(C)1 will result in the revocation of all 2024 model year Executive Orders issued for legacy engine families under this provision ab initio.(D) Except as provided in subsection (a)(2)(F) below, the exhaust emissions from new 2027 and subsequent model heavy-duty diesel engines, urban bus engines, heavy-duty natural gas-fueled and liquefied-petroleum-gas-fueled engines derived from diesel-cycle engines, and heavy-duty methanol-fueled diesel engines, in all cases engines used in heavy-duty vehicles over 14,000 pounds GVWR, shall not exceed: Exhaust Emission Standards for 2027 and Subsequent Model Light Heavy-Duty Engines, and Medium Heavy-Duty Engines (g/bhp-hr)

(4) An engine family whose design allows engine operation in either of two distinct alternative fueling modes, where each fueling mode is characterized by use of one fuel or a combination of two fuels and by significantly different emission levels under each mode, may certify to a different NOx or NOx plus NMHC (as applicable depending on model year) standard for each fueling mode, provided it meets the following requirements:(A) The NOx or NOx plus NMHC certification standard used for operation under the higher emitting fueling mode must be one of the standards denoted by footnote H in paragraph (a)(1) and footnote E in paragraph (a)(2).(B) The NOx or NOx plus NMHC certification standard used for operation under the lower emitting fueling mode must be one of the reduced-emission standards denoted by footnote I in paragraph (a)(1) and footnote F in paragraph (a)(2).(C) The engine family is not used to participate in any manufacturer's averaging, banking or trading program.(D) The engine family meets all other emission requirements contained in this section.(E) The higher emitting fueling mode must be intended only for failsafe vehicle operation when a malfunction or inadvertent fuel depletion precludes operation in the lower emitting fueling mode, as evidenced by a significantly reduced horsepower versus engine speed curve when operating in the higher emitting fueling mode when compared to the similar curve for the lower emitting fueling mode.(5) No crankcase emissions shall be discharged directly into the ambient atmosphere from any new 2007 or later model year diesel heavy-duty diesel engine, with the following exception: heavy-duty diesel engines equipped with turbochargers, pumps, blowers, or superchargers for air induction may discharge crankcase emissions to the ambient atmosphere if the emissions are added to the exhaust emissions (either physically or mathematically) during all emission testing. Manufacturers using this exception must manufacture the engines so that all crankcase emissions can be routed into a dilution tunnel (or other sampling system approved in advance by the Executive Officer), and must account for deterioration in crankcase emissions when determining exhaust deterioration factors. For the purpose of section 1956.8(a)(2), crankcase emissions that are routed to the exhaust upstream of exhaust aftertreatment during all operation are not considered to be "discharged directly into the ambient atmosphere."(6)Heavy-Duty Diesel Engine Idling Requirements.Except as provided in subsection (6)(B) below, the requirements in this subsection apply to 2008 through 2023 model diesel engines used in heavy-duty vehicles over 14,000 pounds GVWR, and 2024 and subsequent model diesel engines used in medium-duty vehicles from 10,001 to 14,000 pounds GVWR and heavy-duty vehicles over 14,000 pounds GVWR. Manufacturers may meet the requirements of this subsection by either demonstrating compliance with the Engine Shutdown System requirements of subsection (6)(A), below or the optional NOx Idling Emission Standard specified in subsection (6)(C), below.
(A)Engine Shutdown System. The requirements in this subsection apply to engine manufacturers and original equipment manufacturers, as applicable, that are responsible for the design and control of engine and/or vehicle idle controls. 1. Requirements. Except as provided in subsections (a)(6)(B) and (a)(6)(C), all new 2008 and subsequent model-year heavy-duty diesel engines shall be equipped with an engine shutdown system that automatically shuts down the engine after 300 seconds of continuous idling operation once the vehicle is stopped, the transmission is set to "neutral" or "park", and the parking brake is engaged. If the parking brake is not engaged, then the engine shutdown system shall shut down the engine after 900 seconds of continuous idling operation once the vehicle is stopped and the transmission is set to "neutral" or "park." The engine shutdown system must be tamper-resistant and non-programmable. A warning signal, such as a light or sound indicator inside the vehicle cabin, may be used to alert the driver 30 seconds prior to engine shutdown. The engine shutdown system must be capable of allowing the driver to reset the engine shutdown system timer by momentarily changing the position of the accelerator, brake, or clutch pedal, or other mechanism within 30 seconds prior to engine shutdown. Once reset, the engine shutdown system shall restart the engine shutdown sequence described in this paragraph above, and shall continue to do so until the engine shuts down or the vehicle is driven.2.Engine Shutdown System Override: The engine shutdown system may be overridden, to allow the engine to run continuously at idle, only under the following conditions: a.If the engine is operating in power take-off (PTO) mode.The PTO system shall have a switch or a setting that can be switched "on" to override the engine shutdown system and will reset to the "off" position when the vehicle's engine is turned off or when the PTO equipment is turned off. Subject to advance Executive Officer approval, other methods for detecting or activating PTO operation may be allowed; or,
b.If the vehicle's engine coolant temperature is below 60°F.The engine shutdown system shall automatically be activated once the coolant temperature reaches 60ºF or above. The engine coolant temperature shall be measured with the engine's existing engine coolant temperature sensor used for engine protection, if so equipped. Other methods of measuring engine coolant temperature may be allowed, subject to advance Executive Officer approval.
c. If an exhaust emission control device is regenerating, and keeping the engine running is necessary to prevent aftertreatment or engine damage, the engine shutdown system may be overridden for the duration necessary to complete the regeneration process up to a maximum of 30 minutes. Determination of what constitutes the need for regeneration will be based on data provided by the manufacturer at time of certification. Regeneration events that may require longer than 30 minutes of engine idling to complete shall require advance Executive Officer approval. At the end of the regeneration process, the engine shutdown system shall automatically be enabled to restart the engine shutdown sequence described in subparagraph (a)(6)(A)1. above. A vehicle that uses a regeneration strategy under engine idling operating conditions shall be equipped with a dashboard indicator light that, when illuminated, indicates that the exhaust emission control device is regenerating. Other methods of indicating that the exhaust emission control device is regenerating may be used with advance Executive Officer approval.d. if servicing or maintenance of the engine requires extended idling operation. The engine's electronic control module may be set to temporarily deactivate the engine shutdown system for up to a maximum of 60 minutes. The deactivation of the engine shutdown system shall only be performed with the use of a diagnostic scan tool. At the end of the set deactivation period, the engine's electronic control module shall reset to restart the engine shutdown system sequence described in subparagraph (a)(6)(A)1. above. (B)Exempt Vehicles. 1. 2008 through 2023 model heavy-duty diesel engines to be used in buses as defined in California Vehicle Code sections 233, 612, and 642, school buses as defined in California Vehicle Code section 545, recreational vehicles as defined in Health and Safety Code section 18010, medium duty vehicles as defined in section of title 131900(b)(13) of title 13, California Code of Regulations (CCR), military tactical vehicles as defined in section of title 131905 of title 13, CCR, authorized emergency vehicles as defined in California Vehicle Code section 165, armored cars, as defined in California Vehicle Code sections 115, and workover rigs, as defined in section of title 132449 of title 13, CCR are exempted from these requirements.2. 2024 and subsequent model heavy-duty engines to be used in military tactical vehicles as defined in title 13, CCR, section 1905 and authorized emergency vehicles as defined in California Vehicle Code § 165 are exempted from these requirements.(C)Optional NOx idling emission standard. 1. Emission standard. a. In lieu of the engine shutdown system requirements specified in subsection (a)(6)(A) above, an engine manufacturer may elect to certify its new 2008 through 2023 model-year heavy-duty diesel engines and 2024 through 2026 model year heavy-duty diesel engines subject to the provisions specified in subsection (a)(2)(C)2 and 2024 through 2026 model year heavy-duty diesel engines subject to the provisions specified in subsection (a)(2)(C)(3) above, to an optional NOx idling emission standard of 30 grams per hour.b. Except as provided in subsection (a)(6)(C)1.a above, in lieu of the engine shutdown system requirements specified in subsection (a)(6)(A) above, an engine manufacturer may elect to certify its new 2024 and subsequent model year heavy-duty diesel engines to the following optional NOx idling emission standards. The optional NOx idling emissions shall not exceed: Optional NOx Idling Emission Standards for 2024 and Subsequent Model Diesel Engines Used in Medium-Duty Vehicles from 10,001 to 14,000 GVWR and Diesel Engines Used in Heavy-Duty Vehicles Greater than 14,000 Pounds GVWR (grams per hour)

2. Compliance Determination: a. Compliance with these optional standards will be determined based on testing conducted pursuant to the supplemental NOx idling test cycle and procedures specified in section 86.1360-2007.B.4 of the "California Exhaust Emission Standards and Test Procedures for 2004 and Subsequent Model Heavy-Duty Diesel Engines and Vehicles," as incorporated by reference in subsection (b). The manufacturer may request an alternative test procedure if the technology used cannot be demonstrated using the procedures in section 86.1360-2007.B.4, subject to advance approval of the Executive Officer. b. A manufacturer certifying to the optional NOx idling standard must not increase emissions of CO, PM, or NMHC, determined by comparing results from the supplemental NOx idling test cycle and procedures specified in section 86.1360-2007.B.4 of the referenced "California Exhaust Emission Standards and Test Procedures for 2004 and Subsequent Model Heavy-Duty Diesel Engines and Vehicles" to emission results from the idle mode of the supplemental steady state test cycle or emission results from idle portions of the transient test cycle for heavy duty diesel engines, respectively specified in sections 86-1360- 2007 and 86.1327-98 of the referenced "California Exhaust Emission Standards and Test Procedures for 2004 and Subsequent Model Heavy-Duty Diesel Engines and Vehicles." With advance Executive Officer approval, a manufacturer may use other methods of ensuring that emissions of CO, PM, and NMHC are not adversely affected in meeting the optional NOx requirement. Also, manufacturers shall state in their application for certification that meeting the optional NOx idling requirement will not adversely affect the associated emissions of CO, PM and NMHC. c. An engine manufacturer certifying its engine to the optional NOx idling emission standard must also produce a vehicle label, as defined in subsection 35.B.4 of the "California Exhaust Emission Standards and Test Procedures for 2004 and Subsequent Model Heavy-Duty Diesel Engines and Vehicles," as incorporated by reference in subsection (b). (D)Optional Alternatives to Main Engine Idling. All new 2008 and subsequent model year heavy duty diesel engines may also be equipped with idling emission reduction devices that comply with the compliance requirements specified in title 13, CCR, section 2485(c)(3). (7) Greenhouse Gas Emission Standards for new 2014 and Subsequent Model Heavy-Duty Diesel Engines, Heavy-Duty Natural Gas-Fueled and Liquefied-Petroleum-Gas-Fueled Engines Derived from Diesel-Cycle Engines, and Heavy-Duty Methanol-Fueled Diesel Engines. (A) The CO2 emissions from new 2014 and subsequent model heavy-duty diesel engines, heavy-duty natural gas-fueled and liquefied-petroleum-gas-fueled engines derived from diesel-cycle engines, and heavy-duty methanol-fueled diesel engines, except in all cases engines used in medium-duty vehicles, shall not exceed: CO2 Emission Standards for 2014 and Subsequent Model Heavy-Duty Diesel Engines A, B, C, D (in g/hp-hr)

| AFamily Certification Levels. A Family Certification Level (FCL) must be specified for each engine family, which may not be less than the certified emission level for the engine family. The Family Emission Limit (FEL) for the engine family is equal to the FCL multiplied by 1.03. The FCL serves as the CO2 emission standard for the engine family with respect to certification and confirmatory testing instead of the standards specified in this subsection (a)(7)(A). The FEL serves as the emission standard for the engine family with respect to all other testing. |
| BAveraging, Banking, and Trading Program and Credits. The requirements for the optional averaging, banking, and trading program and for generating credits are described in the applicable test procedures incorporated by reference in subsection (b). |
| CAlternate Phase-in Emission Standards. Alternate phase-in emission standards may be used in lieu of the required CO2 emission standards in the table above. To qualify for these alternate phase-in emission standards, the manufacturer must begin certifying all of its model year 2013 diesel engines within a given primary intended service class to the applicable alternate emission standards of this footnote (c) and continue through model year 2016. This means that once a manufacturer chooses to certify a primary intended service class to the alternate emission standards of this footnote (c), it is not allowed to opt out of these standards. Engines certified to these alternate emission standards are not eligible for early credits. Note that these alternate emission standards for 2016 and later are the same as the otherwise applicable required emission standards for model year 2017 and later. |

| DAlternate Emission Standards Based on 2011 Model Year Engines. For model years 2014 through 2016, heavy-duty diesel engines may be certified to these alternate emission standards based on 2011 model year engines, if they are not part of an averaging set in which a balance of banked credits remain. These alternate standards are determined from the measured emission rate of the test engine of the applicable baseline 2011 engine family(ies) as described in the "California Exhaust Emission Standards and Test Procedures for 2004 and Subsequent Model Heavy-Duty Diesel-Engines and Vehicles," as incorporated by reference in section (b). The alternate CO2 standard for light and medium heavy-duty vocational-certified engines is equal to the baseline 2011 emission rate multiplied by 0.975. The alternative CO2 standard for tractor-certified engines and all other heavy heavy-duty engines is equal to the baseline 2011 emission rate multiplied by 0.970. |
| EOptional Low-CO2 Emission Standards. Heavy-duty diesel engines certified to these Optional Low-CO2 Emission Standards must also comply with the applicable methane and nitrous oxide emission standards set forth in subsections (a)(7)(B) and (a)(7)(C), respectively. In addition, engines certified to these Optional Low-CO2 Emission Standards and participating in the Innovative Technology Regulation set forth in sections 2208 and 2208.1 are not eligible to participate in the averaging, banking, and trading program, or to generate credits for certification. |

The exemption request shall show that, due to circumstances beyond the control of the vehicle manufacturer, California certified engines are unavailable for use in the vehicle. The request shall further show that redesign or discontinuation of the vehicle will result in extreme cost penalties and disruption of business. In evaluating a request for an exemption, the executive officer shall consider all relevant factors, including the number of individual vehicles covered by the request and the anti-competitive effect, if any, of granting the request. If a request is denied, the executive officer shall state in writing the reasons for the denial.(3) In the event the executive officer determines that an applicant may meet the criteria for an exemption under this subsection, but that granting the exemption will, together with previous exemptions granted, result in over 100 vehicles being permitted under this subsection to use non-California engines in heavy-duty vehicles in any one calendar year, the exemption may be granted only by the state board, under the criteria set forth herein.(g) The exhaust emissions from new 1995 through 2003 model-year engines used in incomplete medium-duty vehicles or diesel engines used in medium-duty vehicles shall not exceed: Exhaust Emission Standards A (grams per brake horsepower-hour, or g/bhp-hr) |

To qualify for this option, a manufacturer must satisfy the PM emission requirements pursuant to the methods detailed in 40 Code of Federal Regulations, part 86, section 86.007-11(g)(2)(ii), as adopted January 18, 2001.(4) No crankcase emissions shall be discharged directly into the ambient atmosphere from any new 2007 or later model year diesel heavy-duty diesel engine, with the following exception: heavy-duty diesel engines equipped with turbochargers, pumps, blowers, or superchargers for air induction may discharge crankcase emissions to the ambient atmosphere if the emissions are added to the exhaust emissions (either physically or mathematically) during all emission testing. Manufacturers taking advantage of this exception must manufacture the engines so that all crank-case emission can be routed into a dilution tunnel (or other sampling system approved in advance by the Executive Officer), and must account for deterioration in crankcase emissions when determining exhaust deterioration factors. For the purpose of section 1956.8(h)(2), crankcase emissions that are routed to the exhaust upstream of exhaust aftertreatment during all operation are not considered to be "discharged directly into the ambient atmosphere."(5)Optional Standards for 2023 and Earlier Model Complete and Incomplete Heavy-Duty Vehicles that Use Heavy-Duty Diesel Engines. For 2023 and earlier model years only, manufacturers may request to group complete and incomplete heavy-duty diesel vehicles into the same test group as medium-duty diesel vehicles certifying to the LEV III exhaust emission standards and test procedures specified in title 13, CCR, section 1961.2, so long as those complete and incomplete heavy-duty diesel vehicles meet the most stringent LEV III standards to which any vehicle within that test group certifies.(6) Greenhouse Gas Emission Standards for New 2014 and Subsequent Model Heavy-Duty Diesel Engines and 2016 and Subsequent Heavy-Duty Otto-Cycle Engines Used in Medium-Duty Low-Emission Vehicles, Ultra-Low-Emission Vehicles, and Super-Ultra-Low-Emission Vehicles. (A) The CO2 emissions from new 2014 and subsequent model heavy-duty diesel engines and new 2016 and subsequent heavy-duty Otto-cycle engines used in medium-duty low-emission vehicles, ultra-low-emission vehicles, and super-ultra-low-emission vehicles shall not exceed: CO2 Emission Standards for 2014 and Subsequent Model Heavy-Duty Diesel Engines and 2016 and Subsequent Model Heavy-Duty Otto-Cycle Engines Used in Medium-Duty Low-Emission Vehicles, Ultra-Low-Emission Vehicles, and Super-Ultra-Low Emission Vehicles A, B (in g/hp-hr) |

AFamily Certification Levels. An FCL must be specified for each engine family, which may not be less than the certified emission level for the engine family. The FEL for the engine family is equal to the FCL multiplied by 1.03. The FCL serves as the CO2 emission standard for the engine family with respect to certification and confirmatory testing instead of the standards specified in this subsection (h)(6)(A). The FEL serves as the emission standard for the engine family with respect to all other testing.
BAveraging, Banking, and Trading Program and Credits. The requirements for the optional averaging, banking, and trading program and for generating credits are described in the applicable test procedures incorporated by reference in subsection (b).
CAlternate Emission Standards Based on 2011 Model Year Engines. For model years 2014 through 2016, heavy-duty diesel engines may be certified to these alternate emission standards if they are not part of an averaging set in which a balance of banked credits remain. These alternate standards are determined from the measured emission rate of the test engine of the applicable baseline 2011 engine family(ies) as described in the California Exhaust Emission Standards and Test Procedures for 2004 and Subsequent Model Heavy-Duty Diesel-Engines and Vehicles, as incorporated by reference in section (b). The alternate CO2 standard for light heavy-duty vocational-certified engines is equal to the baseline 2011 emission rate multiplied by 0.975.
(B) The CH4 emissions from new 2014 and subsequent model heavy-duty diesel engines and new 2016 and subsequent heavy-duty Otto-cycle engines used in medium-duty low-emission vehicles, ultra-low-emission vehicles, and super-ultra-low-emission vehicles shall not exceed 0.10 g/hp-hr.(C) The N2O emissions from new 2014 and subsequent model heavy-duty diesel engines and new 2016 and subsequent heavy-duty Otto-cycle engines used in medium-duty low-emission vehicles, ultra-low-emission vehicles, and super-ultra-low-emission vehicles shall not exceed 0.10 g/hp-hr.(7) The exhaust emissions from new 2024 and subsequent model diesel engines used in medium-duty vehicles from 10,001 - 14,000 pounds GVWR, shall not exceed: Exhaust Emission Standards for 2024 through 2026 Model Diesel Engines Used in Medium-Duty Vehicles from 10,001-14,000 pounds GVWR (g/bhp-hr) A

| A A manufacturers of diesel engines used in medium-duty vehicles from 10,001-14,000 pounds gross vehicle weight rating may choose to comply with these standards as an alternative to the primary emission standards and test procedures specified in section 1961.2, title 13, CCR. A manufacturer that chooses to comply with these optional heavy-duty engine standards and test procedures shall specify, in the Part I application for certification, an in-use compliance test procedure, as provided in section 2139(c), title 13, CCR. An engine certified for use in a medium-duty vehicle shall not be used in a heavy-duty vehicle over 14,000 pounds GVWR. |
(i)Severability: If any provision of this section is held to be invalid or unenforceable by any court of competent jurisdiction, such invalidity shall not affect any provision of this section that can be effected without the invalid provision.(j) Definitions Specific to this Section. The following definitions apply to this section 1956.8. (1) "Active Bus" has the same meaning as defined in 13 CCR § 2023(b)(1).(2) "Bus" has the same meaning as defined in 13 CCR § 2023(b)(6).(3) "Bus purchase" or "Purchase" has the same meaning as defined in 13 CCR § 2023(b)(7).(4) "Certified emission level" means the highest deteriorated emission level in an engine family for a given pollutant from the applicable transient and/or steady-state testing, rounded to the same number of decimal places as the applicable standard. Note that there may be two certified emission levels for CO2 if a family is certified for both vocational and tractor use.(5) "Exempt bus" refers to a bus that is equipped with a 2022 and subsequent model year diesel-fueled heavy-duty engine that is certified to both the federal emission standards for 2010 and later model year diesel heavy-duty engines and vehicles as set forth in title 40, Code of Federal Regulations, section 86.007-11, as last amended Oct. 25, 2016, and the federal Greenhouse Gas Emissions and Fuel Economy Standards for Medium- and Heavy-Duty Engines and Vehicles - Phase 2 requirements promulgated at 81 Fed. Reg. 73,478 (October 25, 2016), which are incorporated by reference herein.(6) "Family certification level" (FCL) means a CO2 emission level declared by the manufacturer that is at or above emission test results for all emission-data engines. The FCL serves as the emission standard for the engine family with respect to certification testing if it is different than the otherwise applicable standard. The FCL must be expressed to the same number of decimal places as the emission standard it replaces.(7) "Family emission limit" (FEL) means an emission level declared by the manufacturer to serve in place of an otherwise applicable emission standard (other than CO2 standards) under the Average, Banking, and Trading Program. The FEL must be expressed to the same number of decimal places as the emission standard it replaces, except for the legacy engine families. For legacy engine families, the manufacturer has the option to specify the NOx and/or PM FEL to either 2 or 3 decimal places, for example, a manufacturer can specify a PM FEL of 0.01 g/bhp-hr or 0.005 g/bhp-hr. The FEL serves as the emission standard for the engine family with respect to all required testing except certification testing for CO2. The CO2 FEL is equal to the CO2 FCL multiplied by 1.03 and rounded to the same number of decimal places as the standard (e.g., the nearest whole g/hp-hr for the 2016 CO2 standards).(8) "Heavy-Duty Transient Federal Test Procedure" or "FTP cycle" means the test procedure specified in 40 CFR § 86.007-11(a)(2), as amended October 25, 2016, incorporated by reference herein, for heavy-duty diesel engines, and the test procedure specified in 40 CFR § 86.008-10(a)(2), as amended on October 25, 2016, incorporated by reference herein, for heavy-duty Otto-cycle engines.(9) "Heavy heavy-duty engine" means an engine used in a vehicle that normally exceeds 33,000 pounds GVWR. Heavy heavy-duty engines are designed for multiple rebuilds and have cylinder liners. Vehicles in this group are normally tractors, trucks, straight trucks with dual rear axles, and buses used in inter-city, long-haul applications. Otto-cycle engines that are best characterized by this definition share a primary intended service class with diesel heavy heavy-duty engines. However, gasoline-fueled engines are presumed not to be characterized by this definition; for example, vehicle manufacturers may install some number of gasoline-fueled engines in vehicles with a GVWR that is above 33,000 pounds without causing the engine manufacturer to consider those to be heavy heavy-duty engines.(10) "Hybrid powertrain or optionally certified hybrid powertrain" means a group of components that includes an engine, electric motor-generator system, rechargeable energy storage system other than a conventional battery system or conventional flywheel, battery management system, including charge controller and thermal management systems and associated power electronics. Transmissions, final drives, and drive shafts may be included as powertrain components if specified by the hybrid powertrain manufacturer. Supplemental electrical batteries and hydraulic accumulators are examples of hybrid energy storage systems. Note other examples of systems that qualify as hybrid engines or power-trains are systems that recover kinetic energy and use it to power an electric heater in the aftertreatment.(11) "Intermediate useful life" means the period of use of 435,000 miles or eight years or 22,000 hours, whichever first occurs, applicable for the intermediate emission standards for oxides of nitrogen for 2027 and subsequent model year heavy heavy-duty diesel engines.(12) "Intermediate useful life NOx standard" means the emissions standards for oxides of nitrogen applicable to the intermediate useful life for 2027 and subsequent model year heavy heavy-duty diesel engines.(13) "Legacy engine family" means an engine family certified under the provisions of title 13, CCR, section 1956.8(a)(2)(C)3.(14) "Light heavy-duty engine" means an engine used in a vehicle that is normally at or below 19,500 pounds GVWR. Light heavy-duty engines usually are not designed for rebuild and do not have cylinder liners. Vehicle body types in this group might include any heavy-duty vehicle built for a light-duty truck chassis, van trucks, multi-stop vans, and some straight trucks with a single rear axle. Typical applications would include personal transportation, light-load commercial delivery, passenger service, agriculture, and construction.(15) "Low-load cycle" means the emission test procedure with the low-load cycle according to section I.11.B.8 of the "California Exhaust Emission Standards and Test Procedures for 2004 and Subsequent Model Heavy-Duty Diesel Engines and Vehicles," incorporated by reference in subsection (b).(16) "Medium heavy-duty engine" mean an engine used in a vehicle that is normally between 19,501 to 33,000 pounds GVWR. Medium heavy-duty engines may be designed for rebuild and may have cylinder liners. Vehicle body types in this group would typically include school buses, straight trucks with single rear axles, city tractors, and a variety of special purpose vehicles such as small dump trucks, and refuse trucks. Typical applications would include commercial short haul and intra-city delivery and pickup.(17) "NOx exempt areas" has the same meaning as defined in 13 CCR § 2023(b)(39).(18) "Primary intended service class" means the class that best describes the vehicle for which the manufacturer designs and markets the engine. The three primary intended service classes are light heavy-duty, medium heavy-duty, and heavy heavy-duty.(19) "Ramped Modal Cycle" or "RMC cycle" means the supplemental emission test procedure with the steady-state cycle in 40 CFR § 86.1360, as amended October 25, 2016, incorporated by reference herein.(20) "Tractor" means a vehicle meeting the definition of "tractor" in 40 CFR § 1037.801, as amended October 25, 2016, incorporated by reference herein, but not classified as a "vocational tractor" under 40 CFR § 1037.630, as amended October 25, 2016, incorporated by reference herein, or relating to such a vehicle.(21) "Tractor engine" means an engine certified for use in tractors. Where an engine family is certified for use in both tractors and vocational vehicles, "tractor engine" means an engine that the engine manufacturer reasonably believes will be (or has been) installed in a tractor. Note that the Executive Officer may require a manufacturer to document how it determines that an engine is a tractor engine.(22) "Test Procedure" means all aspects of engine testing including, but not limited to, the cycle, preconditioning procedures, equipment specifications, calibrations, calculations, and other protocols and specifications needed to measure emissions.(23) "Transit Agency" has the same meaning as defined in 13 CCR § 2023(b)(51).(24) "Urban Bus" has the same meaning as defined in 40 CFR § 86.091-2, as amended July 26, 1990, incorporated by reference herein.(25) "Vocational engine" means an engine certified for use in vocational vehicles. Where an engine family is certified for use in both tractors and vocational vehicles, "vocational engine" means an engine that the engine manufacturer reasonably believes will be (or has been) installed in a vocational vehicle. Note that the provisions of this part may require a manufacturer to document how it determines that an engine is a vocational engine.(26) "Vocational vehicle" means a vehicle meeting the definition of "vocational" vehicle in 40 CFR § 1037.801, as amended October 25, 2016, incorporated by reference herein.(27) "Zero-emission powertrain" means an all-electric or hydrogen fuel-cell powertrain assembly, which includes (if applicable) the electric traction motor, system controller, generator, on-board charger, battery management system, thermal management systems, energy storage system (batteries, capacitors, and flywheels), inverter, fuel-cell stack, and the interface at which electrical power is converted to tractive mechanical power or vice-versa (in the case of a regenerative braking system), certified pursuant to the requirements in subsection (a)(8).Cal.
