The Clean Air Act authorizes EPA to
adopt emission standards for new on-highway and nonroad engines. We
need information to verify that manufacturers comply with emission
standards; before production begins, during production, and after
units have been placed into service. In the rulemaking we require
manufacturers to generate or retain information to demonstrate that
engines comply with emission standards. Manufacturers generally
send us the data they collect and keep these records and other
pertinent information. We may request to see any of these records.
We and the regulated companies will use the data exclusively to
ensure compliance with emission standards. Information such as
engine family, total numbers of engines built, and emission rates
for specific pollutants, are examples of what we require. This ICR
is a revision to the existing information collection approved under
OMB control number 2060-0287. The revisions generally include new
standards, testing, and reporting requirements for nonroad diesel
engines.
We are proposing emission
standards for marine CI engines. This information collection
request updates the estimated burden to reflect the additional
effort required to meet the new standards and consolidates all the
various recordkeeping and reporting items for these engines.
