(f) Compliance Extensions

An owner or operator may be granted an extension to a compliance deadline specified in subsection (e) for one of the following reasons. If a compliance extension is granted by the Executive Officer, the owner or operator shall be deemed to be in compliance provided all of the conditions of as specified by t he Exec utive Officer’s authorization are

met

. Unless specifically stated, c ompliance extensions may not be combined or used consecutively , and o nly one compliance extension type may be granted per engine or

vehicle.

(1) Compliance Extension for an Engine Nea r Retirement . If an owner or operator has applied a Compliance Option to its fleet pursuant to the schedule set forth in Table 3 of subsection (e), and the next engine subject to the Compliance Options

is scheduled to be retired from the active fleet with in one year of the applicable compliance deadline, the owner or operator does not need to apply a Compliance Option to that engine for up to one year, provided the owner or operator maintains appropriate records and documentation, as specified in subparagr aph ( i )(1)(F), regarding the assigned retirement date and the engine is retired on or before the assigned date. If upon inspection

, ARB finds the

aforementioned conditions to have not been met, the engine would be in noncompliance from the date that compl iance would otherwise have been required under the schedule set forth in Table 3 of subsection (e).28 (2) Compliance Extension Based on No Verified Diesel Emission Control Strategy

for Non

- Yard Truck Mobile Cargo Handling Equipment

. Subject to the conditions
set below, I i f the Executive Officer has not verified a diesel emission control strategy or one is not commercially available for a particular engine and equipment combination, an annual extension in compliance, up to a maximum of

two four years, may be g ranted by the Executive Officer. O wners or operators who apply for an additional compliance extension beyond the first two annual

extensions are required to use electric or hybrid cargo handling equipment as specified in subsection (f)(2)( D ) , if such equi pment is available and operationally

feasible for the intended use

. The additional compliance extension beyond the

first two annual extensions will be a two

- year extension. The Executive Officer shall grant the extension upon determining that the followi ng circumstances have

been met :

(A) The owner or operator has applied to the Executive Officer for a compliance extension for an engine six months 60 days prior to each compliance deadline specified in subsection (e)(3)(C) and provided sufficient

documentatio n to meet the conditions set forth below. The owner or
operator may, six

- months 60 days prior to the expiration of the extension, apply for an additional one

- year extension. In such a case, the owner or operator shall once again be required to show to th e Executive Officer’s

satisfaction that the conditions set forth below have been met:

1. E stablish that it has applied a Compliance Option specified in subsection (e)(3) to all applicable engines in its fleet for which a Compliance Option is feasible pursuant to the schedule set forth in Table 3 of subsection (e),

2. Identify each engine for which an extension is requested by engine serial number; engine manufacturer, model year, family, and series; and type of mobile cargo handling equipment, for which a specifi c diesel emission control strategy would jeopardize the original engine warranty and a statement from the engine manufacturer or authorized dealer stating the original engin e warranty would be jeopardized; or
3. Identif y each engine and equipment or vehicle combination for which an extension is requested by engine serial number; engine manufacturer, model year, family, and series; and type of mobile cargo handling equipment, for which no diesel emission control strategy is commercially

available and a list of manufacturers that have been contacted with their responses to a request to purchase, and

4. D escri be the reason(s) for the request for a compliance extension for each engine or engine and eq uipment or vehicle combination. Reasons may include that the appli cation of VDECS precludes safe operation.

(B) If, at any time during the first or second annual compliance provided extension, a safe and feasible VDECS becomes commercially available for the engine, the owner or operator must install the VDECS, or otherwise29 comply with subsection (e)(3), within six months of the ARB notification of

the verification of the VDEC

.

(C) An engine used in CHE equipment shall not be eligible for more than two annual extensions if excessive engine exhaust opacity is the only reason a VDECS cannot be installed on an engine or engine and equipment combination (e.g., a VDECS is available for an engine with lower engine exhaust opacity that is of the same model year, size, and equipment or vehicle combination).

(D) The Executive Offic er shall approve a two

- year compliance extension beyond the two initial annual compliance extensions provided that , in addition to fulfilling the requirements provided in subsection (f)(2)(A), the owner or operator agrees to either:

1. replace a yard truck or non

- yard truck piece of equipment, other than the equipment for which the extension is granted, with a piece

of either electric or hybrid equipment within six months of the date the extension begins, or

2. replace the engine and equipment for which an exten sion has been granted with either electric or hybrid equipment at the end of the final extension period. If the owner or operator chooses this option

and it can be demonstrate d to and approved by the Executive

Officer at the end of the additional extensio n period that electric or hybrid equipment is not commercially available , technically feasible giving consideration to cost, or operationally feasible for the

intended use for the application for which the extension is granted,

the owner or operator m ust :

a. retire or replace the equipment for which the extension is granted with compliant diesel equipment, or otherwise br ing the equipment into compliance with subsection (e)(3) and

, in

addition

, b. must replace a n in

- use yard truck or non

- yard truck equipment , oth er than the equipment for which the extension

was granted , that has not yet been brought into compliance with subsection (e)

, with either electric or hybrid equipment,

unless it can be demonstrated to and approved by the

Executive Officer th at such equipme nt is not commercially available, technically feasible giving consideration to cost or operationally feasible.

3. If during the extension period , a safe a nd feasible VDECS becomes

available and the owner or operator has chosen the option provided

in subsec tion (f)(2)( D ) 2 . then

, a. the owner or operator can be excused from its agreed to performance under section (f)(2)(D)2. if the owner or

opera tor can demonstrate to and obtain approval by the

Executive Officer that electric or hybrid equipment is not30 comme rcially available at that time

, technically feasible giving consideration to cost

, or operationally feasible for replacement of either the equipment for which the extension

has been granted or another in

- use yard truck or piece of

non

- yard truck equipment

, and the owner or operator install s the VDECS on the equipment for which the extension has been granted , or otherwise comply with subsection (e)(3),

within six months of the ARB notification of the verification of

the VDEC S.

b. A VDECS is not required to be installed i f : ( i ) electric or hybrid equipment is available for the equipment for which the extension is granted and the equipment will be replaced with electric or hybrid equipment at the end of the final extension period ; or ( i i) electric or hybrid equipment is available for another piece of equipment and the equipment will be replaced with electric or hybrid equipm ent at the end of the final extension period and the owner or operator complies with subsection (f)(2)(D)2.a

. 4. If the owner or operator ch ooses to replace a piece of equipment other than the equipment for which the extension is granted with electric or hybrid equipment

, the owner or operator must obtain Executive Officer approval . The Executive Officer may disapprove

the action based on an evaluation that the emissions f rom the equipment to be replaced with electric or hybrid are not substantially the same or greater than the emissions f rom the equipment for which the extension is provided considering the following information:

a. a nnual h ours of operation of the two pieces of equipment,

b. m aximum rated h orsepower of the two pieces of equipment,

and

c. a comparison of engine emissions levels of the replacement

electric or hybrid equipment and compliant diesel equipment.

5. An owner or operator who f ails to meet the terms of the compliance extension shall be subject to penalties for not being in compliance with the regulation . The period of non

- compliance shall be calculated starting from the date the equipment would have been required to be in compl iance if the extension had not been granted

.

(3) Use of Experimental Diesel Particulate Matter Emission Control Strategies for

Non

- Yard Truck Mobile Cargo Handling Equipment

. An annual compliance extension may be granted by the Executive Officer for the us e of an experimental , or non

- verified, diesel PM emission control strategy if a VDECS is

not available

, or if the owner or operator can demonstrate that an existing

VDECS is not safe or feasible for their equipment or application

, or use of the31 non

- verifie d control strategy is needed to generate data to support verification of the control strategy

. T he owner or operator shall keep documentation of this use in records as specified in paragraph ( i )(1)(G)

. Each mobile cargo handling equipment engine will be considered to be in compliance for the duration of the experiment, until the extension expires . The owner or operator must bring the mobile cargo handling equipment into compliance prior to the end of the annual compliance extension . The Executive Office r may grant the extension upon determining that the owner or operator has met the conditions specified below:

(A) T he engine owner or operator has applied to the Executive Officer for a compliance extension six months 60 days pr ior to each compliance

deadline , including annually if the owner or operator wishes to continue wi th the experimental controls . The application must include emissions data demonstrating the experimental control achieves at least a Level 1 diesel PM emission reduction through:

1. off
