These procedures apply to market-ready in-use strategies
which, through the use of sound principles of science and engineering, control
emissions of particulate matter (PM) and oxides of nitrogen (NOx) from
diesel-fueled diesel engines. These strategies may include but are not limited
to, diesel particulate filters, diesel oxidation catalysts, fuel additives,
selective catalytic reduction systems, exhaust gas recirculation systems, and
alternative diesel fuels. To be verified under these procedures, a strategy
must either reduce emissions of PM or both PM and NOx. A strategy that reduces
emissions of NOx alone may be verified only for use with on-road diesel engines
certified to a PM emissions standard of 0.01 grams per brake-horsepower hour
(g/bhp-hr) or less, or off-road diesel engines certified to a PM emissions
standard of 0.03 g/bhp-hr or less. A strategy that reduces emissions of NOx
alone may be verified for use with other diesel engines provided that they are
not regulated by Air Resources Board (ARB) in-use fleet regulations or Airborne
Toxic Control Measures that require PM emissions control, or provided that they
would otherwise potentially not be retrofit with PM emission control
strategies.
