    Re:
      Nonroad Engine Certification 

     

    Dear
      Mr.
      Coates,

     

    In
      regards to your current engine project, a normally aspirated 14.0 liter inline
      6
      cylinder fueled by natural gas powering a stationary generator, we have
      determined that this engine application complies with the guidance of 40 CFR
      1048 "CONTROL OF EMISSIONS FROM
      NEW,
      LARGE NONROAD SPARK-IGNITION ENGINES " (Title 40 of the Code of Federal
      Regulations Part 1048)

    (htto://wvvw.access.gpo.gov/nara/cfr/waisidx_05/40cfr1048_05.htm).

     

    As
      per 40
      CFR 1048.5 (d), as defined in 40 CFR 1048.8011, your stationary
      engines are in compliance with this part. You are further obligated to comply
      with 40 CFR 1048.202 (Labeling
      requirements) and prohibitions of 40 CFR 1068.101 restrict the use of a
      stationary engine.

     

    
      	 	 	Regards,	 
	 	 	 	 
	
               

            	 	/s/ Mark

    For
      your
      information, the definition of a stationary engine as found in 40 CFR 1048.801
      is as follows:

     

    "Stationary
      engine means an internal combustion engine that is neither a nonroad engine,
      nor
      a motor-vehicle engine, nor an engine used solely for competition (see the
      definition of nonroad engine in 40 CFR 1068.30). In general this includes fixed
      engines and all portable or transportable engines that stay in a single site
      at
      a building, structure, facility, or installation for at least a full year;
      this
      does not include an engine installed in equipment that has the ability to propel
      itself. For year-round sources, a full year is 12 consecutive months. For
      seasonal sources, a full year is a full annual operating period of at least
      three months. A seasonal source is a site with engines operating only part
      of
      the year for at least two consecutive years. If you replace an engine with
      one
      that does the same or similar work in the same
      place, you may apply the previous engine's service to your calculation
      for residence time. If you move a stationary engine anytime in its life after
      it
      has been in place for at least a full year, it becomes a nonroad engine
subject
      to emission standards unless it stays at the new location for a full
      year."
