Final Regulation Order Part 4 Date of Hearing: January 26-27, 2012 Adopted: March 22, 2012 C. Zero-Emission Vehicle Standards.

1. ZEV Emission Standard. The Executive Officer shall certify new 2018 and subsequent passenger cars, li ght-duty trucks and medium-duty vehicles as ZEVs if the vehicles produce zero exhaust emissions of any criteria pollutant (or precursor pollutant) or greenhouse gas, excluding emissions from air conditioning systems, under any and all possible operational modes and conditions.

2. Percentage ZEV Requirements

2.1 General Percentage ZEV Requirement.

(a) Basic Requirement. The minimum percentage ZEV requirement for each

manufacturer is listed in the table below as the percentage of the PCs and LDT1s, and LDT2s to the extent required by subdivision C.2.2(c), produced by the manufacturer and

delivered for sale in California that must be ZEVs, subject to the conditions in
subdivision C.2.2. The ZEV requirement will be based on the annual NMOG production report for the appropriate model year.

Model Year Credit Percentage Requirement

2018 4.5%

2019 7.0%

2020 9.5%

2021 12.0%

2022 14.5%

2023 17.0%

2024 19.5% 2025 and subsequent 22.0%

(b) Calculating the Number of Vehicl es to Which the Percentage ZEV Requirement is Applied. For 2018 and subsequent model years, a manufacturer’s production volume for the given model year will be based on the three-year average of

the manufacturer’s volume of PCs and LDTs, produced and delivered for sale in California in the prior second, third, and fourth model year [for example, 2019 model year ZEV requirements will be based on Calif ornia production volume average of PCs and LDTs for the 2015 to 2017 model years]. This production averaging is used to determine ZEV requirements only, and has no effect on a manufacturer’s size determination (eg. three-year average calc ulation method). In applying the ZEV requirement, a PC or LDT, t hat is produced by one manufactu rer (e.g., Manufacturer A), but is marketed in California by another m anufacturer (e.g., Manuf acturer B) under the other manufacturer’s (Manufacturer B) nam eplate, shall be treated as having been produced by the marketing manufa cturer (i.e., Manufacturer B).

(2) [Reserved]C-2
Final Regulation Order Part 4 Date of Hearing: January 26-27, 2012 Adopted: March 22, 2012 (3) A manufacturer may apply to t he Executive Officer to be permitted to base its ZEV obligation on the num ber of PCs and LDTs, produced by the

manufacturer and delivered for sale in Californi a that same model year (ie, same modelyear calculation method) as an alternative to the three-year averaging of prior year production described above, for up to two model years, total, between model year 2018 and model year 2025. For the same model-y ear calculation method to be allowed, a manufacturer’s application to t he Executive Officer must show that their volume of PCs and LDTs produced and delivered for sale in California has decreased by at least 30 percent from the previous year due to ci rcumstances that were unforeseeable and beyond their control.

(c) [Reserved]

(d) Exclusion of ZEVs in Determini ng a Manufacturer’s Sales Volume. In calculating a manufacturer’s applicable sa les, using either method described in subdivision C.2.1(b), a manuf acturer shall exclude the number of NEVs produced and

delivered for sale in California by the manufacturer itself, or by a subsidiary in which the
manufacturer has more than 33.4% percent ownership interest.

2.2 Requirements for Large Volume Manufacturers.

(a) [Reserved]

(b) [Reserved]

(c) [Reserved]

(d) [Reserved]

(e) Requirements for Large Volume Manuf acturers in 2018 and through 2025

2025 22.0% 16.0% 6.0%

(f) Requirements for Large Volume Manuf acturers in Model Year 2026 and Subsequent. In 2026 and subsequent model years, a manufacturer must meet a total ZEV credit percentage of 22%. The maxi mum portion of a manufacturer’s credit percentage requirement that ma y be satisfied by TZEV credits is limited to 6% of the manufacturer’s applicable California PC and LD T production volume. ZEV credits must satisfy the remainder of t he manufacturer’s requirement.

2.3 Requirements for Intermedi ate Volume Manufacturers. For 2018 and subsequent model years, an intermediate volu me manufacturer may meet all of its ZEV credit percentage requirement, under subdi vision C.2, with credits from TZEV.

2.4 Requirements for Small Volume Manufacturers and Independent Low

Volume Manufacturers. A small volume manufacturer is not required to meet the ZEV credit percentage requirements. However, a small volu me manufacturer may earn, bank, market, and trade credits for the ZEVs and TZEVs it produces and delivers for

sale in California.

2.5 [Reserved]

2.6 [Reserved]

2.7 Changes in Small Volume, Independent Low Volume, and
Intermediate Volume Manufacturer Status.

(a) Increases in California Production Volume. In 2018 and subsequent model years, if a small volume manufactu rer’s average California production volume exceeds 4,500 units of new PCs, LDTs, and MDVs based on the average number of vehicles produced and delivered for sale for the three previous consecutive model years (i.e., total production volume exceeds 13,500 v ehicles in a three-year period), for three consecutive averages, the manufacturer shall no longer be treated as a small volume manufacturer, and must comp ly with the ZEV requirement s for intermediate volume manufacturers beginning with the nex t model year after the last model year of the third consecutive average. For example, if (a small volume) Manufacturer A exceeds 4,500 PCs, LDTs, and MDVs for their 2018 – 2020, 2019 – 2021, and 2020 – 2022 model year averages, Manufacturer A would be subject to intermediate volume requirements starting in 2023 model year.

If an intermediate volume manufacture r’s average California production volume exceeds 20,000 units of new PCs, LDTs, and MDVs based on the average number of vehicles pr oduced and delivered for sale for the three previous consecutive model years (i.e., total production volume exceeds 60,000 vehicles in a three-yearC-4
Final Regulation Order Part 4 Date of Hearing: January 26-27, 2012 Adopted: March 22, 2012 period), for three consecutive averages, the manufacturer shall no longer be treated as

an intermediate volume manufacturer and sha ll comply with the ZEV requirements for large volume manufacturers beginning with the next model y ear after the last model year of the third consecut ive average. For example, if (an intermediate volume) Manufacturer B exceeds 20,000 PCs, LDTs, and MDVs for its 2018 – 2020, 2019 – 2021, and 2020 – 2022 average, Manufacturer B would be subject to large volume manufacturer requirements starting in 2023 model year.

Any new requirement described in the this subdivision will begin with the next model year after the la st model year of the thir d consecutive average when a
manufacturer ceases to be a small or inte rmediate volume manufacturer in 2018 or subsequent years due to the aggregation requir ements in majority ow nership situations.

(b) Decreases in California Production Volume. If a manufacturer’s average California production volume falls below 4,500 or 20,000 units of new PCs, LDT1 and 2s, and MDVs, based on the aver age number of vehicles produced and delivered for sale for the three previous cons ecutive model years, for three consecutive averages, the manufacturer shall be treated as a small volume or intermediate volume manufacturer, as applicable, and shall be subjec t to the requirements for a small volume or intermediate volume manufacturer beginning with the next model y ear. For example, if Manufacturer C falls below 20,000 PCs, LDTs, and MDVs for its 2019 – 2021, 2020 – 2022, and 2021 – 2023 averages, Manufactu rer C would be subject to IVM requirements starting in 2024 model year.

(c) Calculating California Production Volume in Change of Ownership
Situations. Where a manufacturer experiences a change in ownership in a particular model year, the change will affect applicatio n of the aggregation requirements on the manufacturer starting with the next model ye ar. When a manufacturer is simultaneously producing two model years of vehicles at t he time of a change of ownership, the basis of determining next model year must be th e earlier model year. The manufacturer’s

small or intermediate volume manufacturer status for the next model year shall be based on the average California production volume in the three previous consecutive model years of those manufacturers whos e production volumes must be aggregated for that next model year. For example, where a change of ownership during the 2019 calendar year occurs and the manufac turer is producing both 2019 and 2020 model year vehicles results in a requirement that the production volume of Manufacturer A be aggregated with the production volu me of Manufacturer B, Manu facturer A’s status for the 2020 model year will be based on the pro duction volumes of Manufacturers A and B in the 2017 – 2019 model years. Where the production volume of Manufacturer A must be aggregated with the producti on volumes of Manufactu rers B and C for the 2019 model year, and during that model year a change in ownership eliminates the requirement that Manufacturer B’s producti on volume be aggregated with Manufacturer A’s, Manufacturer A’s status for the 2020 m odel year will be based on the production
volumes of Manufacturers A and C in the 2017 – 2019 model years. In either case, the lead time provisions in subdivisions 1962.2(b)(7)(A) and (B) will apply.C-5

Manufacturers that have fully complied with the optional section 177 state compliance path requirements in subdivision 1962.1( d)(5)(E)3. may tr ade or transfer specified model year ZEV and TZEV credits within the West Region pool to meet the same model year requirements in subdivision C.4.5(e)(2)(A) and will incur no premium on their credit values. For example, for a manufacturer to make up a 2019 model year
shortfall of 100 credits in State X, the manufacturer may transfer 100 (2019 model year) ZEV credits fr om State Y, within the West Region pool. Manufactu rers that have fully complied with the optional section 177 state comp liance path requirements in subdivision 1962.1(d)(5)(E)3. may tr ade or transfer specified model year ZEV and TZEV credits within the East Region pool to meet the same model year requirements in subdivision C.4.5(e)(2)(A), and will incur no premium on their cred it values. For example, for a manufacturer to make up a 2019 model year shortfall of 100 credits in State W, the manufacturer ma y transfer 100 (2019 model year) ZEV credits from State Z, withi n the East Region pool.

2. Trading and Transferring ZEV and TZEV Credits between the West Region Pool and the East Region Pool. Manufacturers that have fully complied with the optional section 177 state compliance path requirements in subdivision 1962.1(d)(5)(E)3. may trade or transfer spec ified model year ZEV and TZEV credits to meet the same model year requirements in subdivision C.4.5(e)(2)(A).a. between the We st Region pool and the East Region pool; however, any credits traded will incur a premium of 30% of their value. For example, in order for a manufacturer to make up a 2019 model year shortfa ll of 100 credits in the West Region Pool, the manufa cturer may transfer 130 (2019 model year)

credits from the East Region Pool. No credits may be traded or transferred to the East Region poo l or West Region pool from a manufacturer’s California ZEV bank, or from the East Region pool or West Region pool to a manufacturer’s California ZEV bank.

subdivision C.2.C-11
Final Regulation Order Part 4 Date of Hearing: January 26-27, 2012 Adopted: March 22, 2012 7.2 ZEV Credit Calculations.

(a) Credits from ZEVs . The amount of credits earned by a manufacturer in a given model year from ZEVs shall be expre ssed in units of credits, and shall be equal to

the number of credits from Z EVs produced and delivered for sa le in California that the manufacturer applies towards meeting the ZEV requirements, or, if applicable, requirements specified under subdivision C.4.5( e)(2)(A) for the model year subtracted

from the number of ZEVs produced and delivered for sale in California by the manufacturer in the model year.

(b) Credits from TZEVs. The amount of credits earned by a manufacturer in a given model year from TZEVs shall be expressed in units of credits, and shall be equal

to the total number of TZEVs produced and delivered for sale in California that the manufacturer applies towards meeting its ZEV requirement, or, if applicable, requirements specified under subdivision C.4.5( e)(2)(A) for the model year subtracted

from the total number of Z EV allowances from TZEVs pr oduced and delivered for sale in California by the manufacturer in the model year.

(c) Separate Credit Accounts. Credits from a manufacturer’s ZEVs, BEVxs, TZEVs, and NEVs shall each be main tained in separate accounts.

(d) Rounding Credits. ZEV credits and debits shall be rounded to the nearest
1/100 th only on the final credit and debit totals us ing the conventional rounding method.

7.3 ZEV Credits for MDVs and LDTs Other Than LDT1s . Credits from ZEVs and TZEVs classified as MDVs, may be counted toward the ZEV requirement for PCs and LDTs, and included in the calculation of ZEV credits as specified in this

subdivision C.7 if the m anufacturer so specifies.

7.4 ZEV Credits for Advanced T echnology Demonstration Programs

.

(a) [Reserved]

(b) ZEVs. ZEVs, including BEVxs, excluding NEVs, placed in a small or
intermediate volume manufacturer’s Ca lifornia advanced technology demonstration program for a period of two or more years, may earn ZEV credits even if the vehicle is not “delivered for sale” or regi stered with the California DMV. To earn such credits, the

manufacturer must demonstrate to the reasonable satisfaction of the Executive Officer that the vehicles will be regularly used in ap plications appropriate to evaluate issues related to safety, infrastructure, fuel specif ications or public education, and that for 50 percent or more of the firs t two years of placement t he vehicle will be operated in California. Such a vehicle is eligible to receive the same credit that it would have earned if delivered for sale, and for fuel cell vehicles, placed in service. To determine vehicle credit, the model year designatio n for a demonstration vehicle shall be consistent with the model year designation for conventional v ehicles placed in the sameC-12
Final Regulation Order Part 4 Date of Hearing: January 26-27, 2012 Adopted: March 22, 2012 timeframe. Manufacturers may earn credit fo r up to 25 vehicles per model, per section 177 state, per year under this

7.5 ZEV Credits for Transportation Systems

(b) [Reserved]

(c) Cap on Use of Transporta tion System Credits.

(1) ZEVs. Transportation system credits ear ned or allocated by ZEVs or BEVxs pursuant to subdivision 1962.1(g)(5), not including any credits earned by the vehicle itself, may be used to satisfy up to one-tenth of a manufacturer’s ZEV obligation in any given model year, and may be used to sa tisfy up to one-tenth of a manufacturer’s ZEV obligation which must be met with ZEVs, as specified in subdivisi on C.2.2(e) , or, if applicable, requirements specified under subdivision C.4.5(e)(2)(A).

(2) TZEVs . Transportation system credits earned or allocated by TZEVs pursuant to subdivision 1962.1(g)(5), not in cluding all credits earned by the vehicle itself, may be used to satisfy up to one-tent h of the portion of a manufacturer’s ZEV obligation that may be met with TZEVs or, if applicable, the portion of a manufacturer’s obligation that may be met with TZEVs specif ied under subdivision C.4.5(e)(2)(A) in any given model year, but may only be used in t he same manner as other credits earned by vehicles of that category.

7.6 Use of ZEV Credits . A manufacturer may meet the ZEV requirements in a given model year by submitting to the Executive Officer a commensurate amount of ZEV credits, consistent with subdivision C.2. Credits in each of the categories may be used to meet the requirement for that category as well as the requirements for lesser credit earning ZEV categories, but shall not be used to meet the requirement for a greater credit earning ZEV category, exc ept for discounted PZEV and AT PZEV credits. For example, credits produced from TZEVs may be used to comply with the portion of the requirement that may be met with credits from TZEV, but not with the portion that
must be satisfied with credits from ZEVs. These credits may be earned previously by the manufacturer or acquired from another party.

(a) Use of Discounted PZEV and AT PZEV Credits and NEV Credits. For model years 2018 through 2025, discounted PZEV and AT PZEV credits, and NEV credits may be used to satisfy up to one-quar ter of the portion of a manufacturer’s requirement that can be met with credits from TZEVs or, if applicable, the portion of a manufacturer’s obligation that may be met with TZEVs specified under subdivision C.4.5(e)(2)(A). Intermediate volume manufacturers may fu lfill their entire requirement with discounted PZEV and AT PZEV credits, and NEV credits in model years 2018 and 2019. These credits may be earned previously by the manufacturer or acquired fromC-13
Final Regulation Order Part 4 Date of Hearing: January 26-27, 2012 Adopted: March 22, 2012 another party. Discounted PZEV and AT PZ EV credits may no longer be used after model year 2025 compliance.

(b) Use of BEVx Credits. BEVx credits may be used to satisfy up to 50% of the portion of a manufacturer’s requirement that must be met wit h ZEV credits.

(c) GHG-ZEV Over Compliance Credits.

(1) Application

. Manufacturers may apply to the Executive Officer, no later than December 31, 2016, to be eligible for this subdivi sion C.7.6(c), based on the following qualifications:

(A) A manufacturer must have no model year 2017 compliance debits and no outstanding debits from all previous model year compliance with sections 1961.1 and 1961.3, and

(B) A manufacturer must have no model year 2017 compliance debits and no outstanding debits from all previous model year compliance with section 1962.1, and

(C) A manufacturer must submit documentation of its projected product plans to show over compliance with the manufacturer’s section 1961.3 requirement s by at least 2.0 gCO 2 /mile in each model year through the entir e 2018 through 2021 model year period.

(2) Credit Generation and Calculation. Manufacturers must calculate their over compliance with section 1961.3 require ments for model years 2018 through 2021 based on compliance with the previous model year standard. For example, to generate credits for this subdivision C.7.6(c) for m odel year 2018, manufacturers would calculate credits based on model year 2017 co mpliance with section 1961.3.

(A) At least 2.0 gCO 2 /mile over compliance with section 1961.3 is required in each year and the fo llowing equation must be used to
calculate the amount of ZEV credi ts earned for purposes of this subdivision C.7.6(c):

[(Manufacturer US PC and LDT Sales) x (gCO 2 /mile below manufacturer GHG standard for a given model year)] / (Manufacturer GHG standard for a given model year)

(B) Credits earned under secti on 1961.3(a)(9) may not be included in the calculation of gCO 2 /mile credits for use in the above equation in subdivision (A).

(C) Banked gCO 2 /mile credits earned under 1961.1 and 1961.3C-14
Final Regulation Order Part 4 Date of Hearing: January 26-27, 2012 Adopted: March 22, 2012 from previous model years or from other manufacturers may not be included in the calculation of gCO 2 /mile credits for use in the above equation in subdivision (A).

(3) Use of GHG-ZEV Over Compliance Credits . A manufacturer may use no more than the percentage enumerated in the tabl e below to meet either the total ZEV requirement nor the portion of their ZEV requirement that must be met with ZEV credits,

with credits earned under this subdivision C.7.6(c).

Credits earned in any given model year under this subdivision C.7.6(c) may only be used in the applicable model year and may not be used in any other model year.

Credits calculated under this provision must also be removed from the GHG compliance bank, and cannot be banked for future compliance toward section 1961.3.

(4) Reporting Requirements. Annually, manufacturers ar e required to submit
calculations of credits for this subdivisi on C.7.6(c) for the model year, any remaining credits/debits from previous model years under 1961.3, and projected credits/debits for future years through 2021 under 1961.3 and this subdivision C.7.6(c).

If a manufacturer, who has been granted the ability to generate credits under this subdivision C.7.6(c), fails to ov er comply by at least 2.0 gCO 2 /mile in any one year, the manufacturer will be subject to the full ZEV r equirements for the model year and future model years, and will not be able to earn credits for any other model year under this subdivision C.7.6(c).

(5) If the Executive Officer does not ma ke a determination that a Federal greenhouse gas fleet standard is functionally equi valent to subdivision 1961.3, than this subdivision C.7.6(c)(1) through (4) is unavai lable for use by any manufacturer.

Final Regulation Order Part 4 Date of Hearing: January 26-27, 2012 Adopted: March 22, 2012 (a) General . A manufacturer that produces and delivers for sale in California fewer ZEVs than required in a give n model year shall make up the deficit by the next model year by submitting to the Executive Officer a commensurate amount of ZEV credits. The amount of ZEV credits requi red to be submitted shall be calculated by [i] adding the number of credits from ZEVs pr oduced and delivered for sale in California by the manufacturer for the model year to the number of credits from TZEVs produced and delivered for sale in California by the m anufacturer for the model year (for a LVM, not to exceed that permitted under subdivision C. 2.2), and [ii] subtract ing that total from the number of credits required to be produced and delivered for sale in California by the manufacturer for the model year. BEVx, TZE V, NEV, or conver ted AT PZEV and PZEV
credits are not allowed to be used to fulf ill a manufacturer’s ZEV deficit; only credits from ZEVs may be used to fulf ill a manufacturer’s ZEV deficit.

7.8 Penalty for Failure to Meet ZEV Requirements. Any manufacturer that fails to produce and deliver for sale in California t he required number of ZEVs and submit an appropriate amount of credits and does not make up ZEV def icits within the specified time allowed by subdivision C.7.7(a) shall be subject to the Health and Safety Code section 43211 civil penalty applicable to a ma nufacturer that sells a new motor vehicle that does not meet the applic able emission standards adopted by the state board. The
cause of action shall be deemed to accrue w hen the ZEV deficit is not balanced by the end of the specified time allowed by subdivi sion 1962.2(g)(7)(A). For the purposes of Health and Safety Code section 43211, the num ber of vehicles not meeting the state board’s standards shall be equal to the manufacturer’s credit deficit, rounded to the

nearest 1/100 th , calculated according to the following equation, provided that the percentage of a manufacturer’ s ZEV requirement for a giv en model year that may be
satisfied with TZEVs or credit from such vehicles may not exceed the percentages permitted under subdivision C.2.2::

(No. of ZEV credits required to be gener ated for the model year) – (Amount of credits submitted for compliance for the model year)

8. Severability. Each provision of these st andards and test procedures is severable, and in the event t hat any provision of these st andards and test procedures is held to be invalid, the remainder of the standards and test procedures remains in full

force and effect.

Pa rt 1065 of the CFR may be used as an optional particulate samp ling method. Continuous proportional samples of gaseous emissions are collected for anal ysis during each test. For hybrid electric vehicles with Otto-cycle auxiliary power units, the composite samples collected in bags are analyzed for THC, CO, CO 2 , CH 4 and NO
x . For hybrid electric vehicles that are not “off-vehicle charge capable,” and are equipped with petroleum-fueled dies el-cycle auxiliary power units (optional for natural gas-fueled, liq uefied petroleum gas-fueled, and alcohol-fueled diesel-cycle vehicles ), THC is sampled and analyzed continuously pursuant to the provisi ons of §86.110-94. Parallel samples of the dilution air are similarly analyzed for THC, CO, CO 2 , CH 4 and NO
x . For hybrid electric vehicles with nat ural gas-fueled, li quefied petroleum gas-fueled, and alcohol-fueled auxiliary power units, bag samples are collected and analyzed for THC (if not sampled continuously), CO, CO 2 , CH 4 and NO
x . For hybrid electric vehicles with alcohol-fueled auxiliary power units, alcohol and formal dehyde 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, CO 2 , CH 4 and NO

Final Regulation Order Part 4 Date of Hearing: January 26-27, 2012 Adopted: March 22, 2012 in accordance with §86.132-00 of this subpart, to bring the vehicle to a warmed-up stabilized condition. This preco nditioning is followed by a 10 minute vehicle soak (vehicle turned off) that proceeds directly into the SC03 driving schedule, during which continuous proporti onal samples of gaseous emissions are collected for analysis. The entire te st, including the SC03 preconditioning cycle, vehicle soak, and SC03 emission test, is either conducted in an environmental test facility or under test conditions that simulate testing in an environmental test cell (see §86.162-03 (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 o F air temperature, 100 grains of water/pound of dry air (appr oximately 40 percent relative humidity), a solar heat load intensity of 850 W/m 2 , and vehicle cooling air flow proportional to vehicle speed. Section 86.161-00 discusses the minimum facility requirements and corresponding control tole rances for air conditioning ambient

test conditions. The vehicle’s air c onditioner is operated or appropriately
simulated for the duration of the test procedure (except for the 10 minute vehicle soak), including the preconditioning. If engine stalling should occur during testing, follow the provisions of §86.136- 90 (engine starting and restarting). For vehicles with Otto-cycle auxiliary power uni ts, the composite samples collected in bags are analyzed for THC, CO, CO 2 , CH 4 and NO
x . For vehicles with diesel-cycle auxiliary power units, T HC is sampled and analyzed continuously according to the provisions of §86.110. Parallel bag samples of dilution air are analyzed for THC, CO, CO 2 , CH 4 and NO
x . The SC03 cycle after the preconditioning cycle shall be used to calc ulate emissions and shall meet the state-of-charge net tolerances as calculated in section G.10.
