| 2010-11149 | Clean Alternative Fuel Vehicle and Engine Conversions | Proposed Rule | EPA is proposing to simplify and streamline the process by which manufacturers of clean alternative fuel conversion systems may demonstrate compliance with vehicle and engine emissions requirements. Specifically, EPA is proposing to revise the regulatory criteria for gaining an exemption from the Clean Air Act prohibition against tampering for the conversion of vehicles and engines to operate on a clean alternative fuel. Under existing EPA regulations, an exemption from the tampering prohibition may only be granted to vehicles and engines covered by a certificate of conformity. The proposed revisions would create additional compliance options beyond certification that would protect manufacturers of clean alternative fuel conversion systems against a tampering violation, depending on the age of the vehicle or engine to be converted. The new options would alleviate some economic and procedural impediments to clean alternative fuel conversions while maintaining environmental safeguards to ensure that acceptable emission levels from converted vehicles are sustained. | 2010-05-26 | 2010 | 5 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2010/05/26/2010-11149/clean-alternative-fuel-vehicle-and-engine-conversions | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2010-05-26/pdf/2010-11149.pdf | Environmental Protection Agency | 145 | EPA is proposing to simplify and streamline the process by which manufacturers of clean alternative fuel conversion systems may demonstrate compliance with vehicle and engine emissions requirements.
