Proposal for a European Parliament and Council Directive on action to be taken against the emission of gaseous and particulate pollutants by engines intended to power agricultural or forestry tractors and amending Council Directive 74/150/EEC (98/C 303/07) (Text with EEA relevance) COM(1998) 472 final - 98/0247(COD)(Submitted by the Commission on 3 September 1998)THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community, and in particular Article 100a thereof,Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,Having regard to the opinion of the Economic and Social Committee,Acting in accordance with the procedure laid down in Article 189b of the Treaty,(1) Whereas, to ensure the proper functioning of the internal market, Directive 74/150/EEC of 4 March 1974 on the approximation of the laws of the Member States relating to the type-approval of wheeled agricultural or forestry tractors (1), as last amended by European Parliament and Council Directive 97/54/EC (2) and the 22 separate Directives adopted between 1974 and 1989 harmonized the technical specifications in this field;(2) Whereas, in order to further safeguard the environment, it is necessary to supplement the measures already adopted, as regards the opacity of exhaust gases, by Council Directive 77/537/EEC of 28 June 1977 on the approximation of the laws of the Member States relating to the measures to be taken against the emission of pollutants from diesel engines for use in wheeled agricultural or forestry tractors (3), as last amended by Directive 97/54/EC, by adding measures relating, in particular, to physicochemical emissions; whereas, by referring to the provisions of European Parliament and Council Directive 97/68/EC of 16 December 1997 on the approximation of the laws of the Member States relating to measures against the emission of gaseous and particulate pollutants from internal combustion engines to be installed in non-road mobile machinery (4), this Directive should lay down the limit values for emissions of gaseous and particulate pollutants to be applied in successive stages, and the test procedure for internal combustion engines intended to power agricultural or forestry tractors; whereas compliance with the provisions of Council Directive 88/77/EEC of 3 December 1987 on the approximation of the laws of the Member States relating to the measures to be taken against the emission of gaseous pollutants from diesel engines for use in vehicles (5), as last amended by European Parliament and Council Directive 96/1/EC (6), can also be accepted on the same basis as compliance with the requirements of this Directive;(3) Whereas, in order to facilitate access to third-country markets, it is necessary to establish equivalence between the requirements of this Directive for the first stage and the requirements laid down in United Nations Economic Commission for Europe (UN/ECE) Regulation No 96 concerning the component type-approval of compression ignition engines intended to be fitted to agricultural or forestry tractors in terms of their pollutant emissions (7);(4) Whereas, in order to maximise the benefits to the European environment and, at the same time, to ensure the unity of the market, it is necessary to adopt very strict mandatory standards at regular intervals; whereas any further reduction in the limit values and any changes to the test procedure can be adopted only on the basis of studies and research to be conducted into existing and foreseeable technological potential and into the cost-effectiveness of the options, in order to allow production on an industrial scale of agricultural or forestry tractors that are capable of meeting these more stringent limits; whereas the decision regarding any such subsequent reduction should be taken by Parliament and the Council by the end of 2006;(5) Whereas the Member States should be allowed to grant fiscal incentives to promote the introduction of engines intended to be fitted to agricultural or forestry tractors which meet in advance the requirements adopted at Community level concerning action to counter pollutant emissions;(6) Whereas, in accordance with the principles of subsidiarity and proportionality as set out in Article 3b of the Treaty, the objectives of the Community measures envisaged by this Directive cannot be sufficiently achieved by the Member States and can therefore be better achieved by the Community; whereas this Directive confines itself to the minimum required in order to achieve those objectives and does not go beyond what is necessary for that purpose;(7) Whereas technical progress requires rapid adaptation of the technical requirements set out in the Annexes to this Directive; whereas, with the exception of the limit values for pollutants, it is appropriate to delegate this task to the Commission, with the aim of simplifying and accelerating the procedure; whereas, wherever Parliament and the Council empower the Commission to implement the rules drawn up for agricultural or forestry tractors, a prior consultation procedure should be introduced whereby the Commission and the Member States meet within the committee established by Directive 74/150/EEC;(8) Whereas the requirements of this Directive supplement those of Council Directive 77/537/EEC, which is referred to in Annex II to Directive 74/150/EEC; whereas Directive 74/150/EEC thus needs to be amended,HAVE ADOPTED THIS DIRECTIVE:Article 1 For the purposes of this Directive:- 'agricultural or forestry tractor` (hereinafter referred to as 'tractor`) means any vehicle as defined in Article 1(1) of Directive 74/150/EEC,- 'engine` means any internal combustion engine intended to power tractors, as defined in Annex I to this Directive,- 'component type-approval of an engine type or family in respect of pollutant emissions` means the instrument whereby a Member State certifies that an engine type or family intended to power tractors meets the technical requirements of this Directive,- 'type-approval of a tractor type in respect of pollutant emissions` means the instrument whereby a Member State certifies that a tractor type equipped with an engine as defined in Annex I meets the technical requirements of this Directive,- 'family of engines` means two or more types of engine that are similar in design and which, therefore, could display characteristics that are comparable in terms of pollutant emissions.Article 2 The procedure for granting component type-approval for an engine type or family in respect of pollutant emissions, the procedure for granting type-approval for tractors in respect of pollutant emissions, and the conditions for the unrestricted placing on the market of such engines and tractors, shall be as laid down in Directive 74/150/EEC.Article 3 1. Any engine type or family shall meet the requirements of Annex I in respect of pollutant emissions.2. Any tractor type shall meet the requirements of Annex II in respect of pollutant emissions.Article 4 1. As from 1 January 2001, Member States may not:- refuse to grant EC component type-approval or national component type-approval in respect of an engine type or family, or- prohibit the sale of such engines,if the pollutants emitted by those engines meet the requirements of this Directive, or- refuse to grant EC type-approval or national type-approval of tractors, or- prohibit the initial entry into service of tractors,if the pollutants emitted by the engine fitted to those tractors meet the requirements of this Directive.2. As from 1 October 2001, Member States:- may no longer grant EC type-approval for a tractor type,- shall refuse to grant national type-approval for a tractor type,where the pollutants emitted by the engine fitted to that tractor type do not meet the requirements of this Directive.3. As from 1 October 2003, Member States shall prohibit the initial entry into service of tractors where the pollutants emitted by their engines do not meet the requirements of this Directive.Article 5 The authorities of Member States granting EC component type-approval for a type or family of engines or EC type-approval for a type of tractor shall recognise the component type-approvals or type-approvals granted in accordance with the provisions of section 3 of Annex I and section 3 of Annex II and the corresponding component type-approval or type-approval marks.Article 6 On the basis of a proposal which the Commission shall, if need be, put forward by the end of 2004, the European Parliament and the Council shall decide on a further reduction in emission limit values by the end of 2006. In its proposal, drawn up on the basis of research and cost/efficiency assessments of the application of more stringent limit values, the Commission will propose measures that are proportional and reasonable with regard to the targets set, taking account of the overall availability of techniques for controlling air-polluting emissions from engines and the incorporation of new engine systems and accessories into tractors, and of the air-quality situation.Article 7 1. Member States may provide tax incentives for tractors and engines that are intended to power such tractors only where they comply with the anti-pollution measures laid down in this Directive.2. The incentives referred to in paragraph 1 shall comply with the provisions of the Treaty and fulfil the following conditions:- they shall be valid for all new tractors and engines sold on the market of a Member State which meet the requirements of this Directive in advance,- they shall end with the mandatory application of the limit values laid down in this Directive,- they shall, for each type of tractor and engine, be lower than the extra cost of the technical solutions introduced and of fitting the engine to the tractor in such a way that the values laid down are not exceeded.3. The Commission shall be informed of any plans to introduce or change any of the tax incentives referred to in the first paragraph sufficiently early for it to comment thereon.Article 8 Any amendments needed in order to adapt the requirements of the Annexes to technical progress shall be adopted in accordance with the procedure laid down in Article 13 of Directive 74/150/EEC.Article 9 In Annex II to Directive 74/150/EEC, the following item 2.8.2 is inserted:'2.8.2. Emissions of gaseous pollutants and particulate pollutants by engines: SD`.Article 10 Member States shall bring into force the laws, regulations and administrative provisions necessary to comply with this Directive by 31 December 2000. They shall forthwith inform the Commission thereof.They shall apply these provisions from 1 October 2001.When Member States adopt those provisions, they shall contain a reference to this Directive or be accompanied by such a reference on the occasion of their official publication. Member States shall determine how such reference is to be made.Article 11 This Directive shall enter into force on the 20th day following its publication in the Official Journal of the European Communities.Article 12 This Directive is addressed to the Member States.(1) OJ L 84, 28.3.1974, p. 10.(2) OJ L 277, 10.10.1997, p. 24.(3) OJ L 220, 29.8.1977, p. 38.(4) OJ L 59, 27.2.1998, p. 1.(5) OJ L 36, 9.2.1988, p. 33.(6) OJ L 40, 17.2.1996, p. 1.(7) Doc.

ESSENTIAL CHARACTERISTICS OF THE ENGINE FAMILY3.1. Common parameters defining the engine familyThe engine family may be defined by basic design parameters which must be common to all engines within the family. In some cases there may be interaction of parameters. These effects must also be taken into consideration in order to ensure that only engines with similar exhaust emission characteristics are included within an engine family.For engines to be considered to belong to the same engine family, the following list of basic parameters must be common:3.1.1. Combustion cycle: 2 stroke/4 stroke (¹)3.1.2. Cooling medium: air/water/oil (¹)3.1.3. Swept volume:- swept volumes to be within a total spread of 15 %- the number of cylinders for engines with after-treatment device must be identical3.1.4. Method of air aspiration: naturally aspirated/pressure charged (¹):3.1.5. Combustion chamber type/design:- pre-chamber- swirl chamber- open chamber3.1.6. Valve and porting - configuration, size and number:- cylinder head- cylinder wall- crankcase3.1.7. Fuel system:- pump-line-injector- in-line pump- distributor pump- single element- unit injector3.1.8. Exhaust gas recirculation3.1.9. Water injection/emulsion (¹)3.1.10. Air injection3.1.11. Charge cooling system3.1.12. Oxidation catalyst3.1.13. Reduction catalyst3.1.14. Thermal reactor3.1.15. Particulates trap3.2. Choice of the parent engine3.2.1. The parent engine of the family shall be selected using the primary criterion of the highest fuel delivery per stroke at the declared maximum torque speed. If two or more engines share this primary criterion, the parent engine shall be selected using the secondary criterion of highest fuel delivery per stroke at rated speed. Under certain circumstances, the approval authority may conclude that the worst-case emission rate of the family can best be characterised by testing a second engine. Thus, the approval authority may select an additional engine for tests based on features which indicate that it may have the highest emission levels of the engines within that family.3.2.2. If engines within the family incorporate other variable features which could be considered to affect exhaust emissions, these features must also be identified and taken into account in the selection of the parent engine.3.3.

Any engine approved as a separate technical unit must bear:1.1. the trade mark of name of the engine's manufacturer;1.2. the engine type, and if applicable engine family, and a unique engine identification number;1.3. the EC component type-approval number in accordance with Annex II.2. These marks must last throughout the useful life of the engine and remain clearly legible and indelible. If labels or plates are used, they must be affixed in such a way that they too last throughout the useful life of the engine, and the labels/plates cannot be removed without destroying or defacing them.3. These marks must be secured to an engine part that is necessary for normal engine operation and not normally requiring replacement during engine life.These marks must be located so as to be readily visible to the average person once the engine has been fitted to the tractor, together with all the accessories needed for engine operation. If a bonnet is to be removed in order to make the mark visible, this requirement shall be considered to have been met if removal of that bonnet is simple and does not require the use of a tool.In case of doubt concerning the meeting of this requirement, it shall be considered to have been met if an additional mark containing at least the engine identification number and the name, trade name or logo of the manufacturer has been added. That additional mark shall be affixed to, or next to, a major component that would not normally have to be replaced during the service life of the engine, and be easily accessible, without the assistance of tools, during routine maintenance operations; otherwise, it must be located at a distance from the original mark on the engine crankcase. The original mark and, where appropriate, the additional mark shall both be clearly visible once all of the accessories needed for the operation of the engine have been fitted. A bonnet meeting the requirements set out in the above paragraph shall be authorised. The additional mark shall be affixed in a durable manner directly to the topside of the engine, for example by means of an engraving, or a sticker or plate that meets the requirements of item 2.4. The engines must be classified by means of their identification numbers in such a way that the production sequence can be determined unambiguously.5. Before leaving the production line, the engines must bear all of the required marks.6.
