Amendments to Alternative Fuel Conversion Certification Procedures

Amendments to Alternative Fuel Conversion Certification Procedures

Note: Functional Equivalent Doc & Review per lead Similar to U.S. EPA's new regulations, the proposed amendments will establish streamlined requirements for manufacturers of alternative fuel conversion systems, which are needed because current demonstration requirements for certification of alternative fuel conversions are relatively time consuming and costly that potentially creates barriers for small volume conversion manufacturers to bring their product to market. The proposed modifications will reduce costs and time required to bring the conversion systems to market while preserving air emissions benefits. These changes will also create a single process for certifying an alternative fuel retrofit system, which would reduce the up-front demonstration requirements and allow systems to be sold sooner than they are under the current process.
