Abstract:
Title
II
of
the
Clean
Air
Act
requires
engine
manufacturers
to
obtain
a
certificate
of
conformity
with
applicable
emission
standards
for
each
engine
prototype
before
they
may
legally
introduced
their
products
into
commerce.
The
Act
also
mandates
EPA
to
verify
that
manufacturers
have
successfully
translated
their
certified
engine
prototypes
into
mass
produced
engines
and
that
these
engines
comply
with
emission
standards
throughout
their
useful
lives.
Under
the
Production
Line
Testing
(
PLT)
Program,
manufacturers
test
a
sample
of
engines
as
they
leave
the
assembly
line.
This
self­
audit
program
allows
manufacturers
to
monitor
compliance
with
statistical
certainty
and
minimize
the
cost
of
correcting
errors
through
early
detection.
Under
the
Voluntary
In­
use
Testing
Program,
manufacturers
test
engines
after
a
number
of
years
of
use
to
verify
that
the
engines
comply
with
emission
standards
throughout
their
useful
lives.
Under
the
spark
ignition
engine
emissions
rule,
codified
at
40
CFR
part
90,
only
Phase
2
SI
engines
are
elegible
to
participate
in
the
PLT
and
the
In­
use
Programs.
Engine
manufacturers
can
choose
to
participate
in
either
the
PLT
Program
or
the
In­
use
Program.
Sections
206(
b)
and
213(
d)
of
the
Act
also
mandate
that
EPA
conduct
testing
of
a
sample
of
certified
engines
to
determine
if
these
engines
do
in
fact
conform
with
the
applicable
emission
regulations.
Under
the
Selective
Enforcement
Audit
(
SEA)
Program,
EPA
selects
a
number
of
engines
to
be
taken
directly
from
the
assembly
line
and
tested
according
to
EPA
specifications.
These
audits
are
performed
to
ensure
that
test
data
submitted
by
manufacturers
is
reliable
and
testing
is
performed
according
to
EPA
regulations.
All
SI
engine
manufacturers
are
subject
to
be
audited.
Participation
in
the
SEA
program
is
mandatory.
The
information
requested
by
this
information
collection
is
used
to
enforce
different
provisions
of
the
Act
and
maintain
the
integrity
of
the
overall
emissions
reduction
program.
Data
generated
through
the
PLT,
In­
use
and
SEA
programs
may
be
used
to
evaluate
future
applications
for
certification,
to
identify
potential
issues,
and
as
basis
to
suspend
or
revoke
the
certificate
of
conformity
of
those
engines
that
fail.
There
are
recordkeeping
requirements
in
all
programs.
The
information
is
collected
by
the
Engine
Programs
Group,
Certification
and
Compliance
Division,
Office
of
Transportation
and
Air
Quality,
Office
of
Air
and
Radiation.
Confidentiality
of
proprietary
information
submitted
by
manufacturers
is
granted
in
accordance
with
the
Freedom
of
Information
Act,
EPA
regulations
at
40
CFR
part
2,
and
class
determinations
issued
by
EPA's
Office
of
General
Counsel.
An
agency
may
not
conduct
or
sponsor,
and
a
person
is
not
required
to
respond
to,
a
collection
of
information
unless
it
displays
a
currently
valid
OMB
control
number.
The
OMB
control
numbers
for
EPA's
regulations
in
40
CFR
are
listed
in
40
CFR
part
9.
The
EPA
would
like
to
solicit
comments
to:
(
i)
Evaluate
whether
the
proposed
collection
of
information
is
necessary
for
the
proper
performance
of
the
functions
of
the
Agency,
including
whether
the
information
will
have
practical
utility;
(
ii)
Evaluate
the
accuracy
of
the
Agency's
estimate
of
the
burden
of
the
proposed
collection
of
information,
including
the
validity
of
the
methodology
and
assumptions
used;
(
iii)
Enhance
the
quality,
utility,
and
clarity
of
the
information
to
be
collected;
and
(
iv)
Minimize
the
burden
of
the
collection
of
information
on
those
who
are
to
respond,
including
through
the
use
of
appropriate
automated
electronic,
mechanical,
or
other
technological
collection
techniques
or
other
forms
of
information
technology,
e.
g.,
permitting
electronic
submission
of
responses.

SUPPLEMENTARY
INFORMATION:
The
FY2004

will
be
issued
under
section

of
the
Comprehensive

are
exempt
from
notice
and
comment
requirements
under
5
U.
S.
C.
553(

However,
the
Agency
has
decided
that
consultation
with
public

is
an
appropriate
step
in
effectively

the
general
public.
Parties
wishing
to

2003,
prior

Guidelines
in
September
2003.
However,
due
to
the
need
to
