Or. Admin. Code § 340-257-0090 - ZEV Credit Bank and Reporting
(1) Beginning model year 2009, each
intermediate volume and large volume manufacturer of ZEVs, ATPZEVs, PZEVs, and
TZEVs may open an account in the ZEV Credit Bank operated by DEQ.
(2) In order to generate and deposit credits
for vehicles delivered for sale in Oregon during the 1999 through 2005 model
years, a manufacturer must open an account with the ZEV Credit Bank and submit
an appropriate Notice of Generation to DEQ on or before September 1,
2006.
(3) Manufacturers wishing to
claim ZEV credits must use the format and process contained in CARB's
Manufacturer's Advisory Correspondence (MAC) 2011-02 for reporting and tracking
ZEV deliveries and placements, unless this division specifies different
requirements. DEQ will follow CARB's procedures contained in that MAC for
tracking and recording ZEV sales and credits.
(4) Except as provided in section (2) of this
rule, annually each manufacturer must submit to DEQ a Notice of Credit
Generation or Notice of Credit Transfer to or from another manufacturer.
Credits generated or acquired must be reported to DEQ on or before September 1
following the close of the model year in which the qualifying vehicle was
produced and delivered for sale in Oregon.
(5) To deposit credits into the ZEV Credit
Bank, a manufacturer must submit a Notice of Credit Generation to DEQ. The
Notice of Generation must include the following:
(a) For ZEVs delivered for sale in Oregon:
(A) Manufacturer's ZEV Credit Bank account
identifier;
(B) Model year of
vehicle qualifying for credit;
(C)
CARB Executive Order number;

states);
(E) Vehicle identification
number (only through model year 2017); and
(F) Date the vehicle was delivered for sale
in Oregon.
(b) For model
years through 2017, ZEVs placed in service in Oregon, all information listed
under subsection (6)(a) of this rule, plus the following:
(A) Date the vehicle was placed in service,
and
(B) Whether the vehicle was
placed in service with an option to purchase or lease the vehicle.
(c) For ATPZEVs and PZEVs

(B) Model year of
vehicle qualifying for credit;
(C)
CARB Executive Order number;
(D)
Date the vehicle was delivered for sale in Oregon, and
(6) The number of the credits
generated and deposited for each qualifying vehicle must be the number of
qualifying vehicles multiplied by the applicable multiplier specified in CCR,
Title 13, sections 1962, 1962.1, 1962.2, or 1962.4 as appropriate, except the
multiplier applied to vehicles produced and delivered for sale in Oregon from
January 1, 1999 to January 13, 2004 will be the highest applicable multiplier
used by the CARB for the period January 1, 1999 to January 13, 2004.
(7) A vehicle equivalent credit does not
constitute or convey a property right.
(8) A manufacturer with an account in the ZEV
Credit Bank may acquire credits from another manufacturer with an account in
the ZEV Credit Bank. However, if the credits are to be used for future
compliance with the ZEV sales requirement at CCR Title 13, section 1962.1,
1962.2, or 1962.4, the transaction must be recorded in the ZEV Credit Bank and
certified by both parties to the transaction.
(9) A manufacturer may deposit into its
account in the ZEV Credit Bank a number of credits equal to its California
credit balance at the beginning of the 2009 model year. The transferred credit
balance will be multiplied by the number of new motor vehicles registered in
Oregon, and divided by the number of new motor vehicles registered in
California. The proportion of new motor vehicles in Oregon and California will
be determined by the average number of vehicles registered in model years 2003
through 2005, or by the average number of vehicles registered in model year
2009. The deposit may be made only after all credit obligations for model years
2008 and earlier have been satisfied in California.
(10) Each manufacturer with a ZEV Credit Bank
account under this rule must report to DEQ the following information:
(a) By May 1, 2009, the total number of PC
and LDT1 vehicles produced and delivered for sale in Oregon and California for
2003 through 2005 model years; or
(b) By May 1, 2009, the total projected
number of PC and LDT1 vehicles to be produced and delivered for sale in Oregon
and California during model year 2009 and, by March 1, 2010, the actual number
of 2009 model year PC and LDT1 vehicles produced and delivered for sale in
Oregon and California; and
(c) By
May 1, 2009, provide DEQ with the total number of banked California credits
after all 2008 model year and earlier obligations have been met.
(11) A manufacturer electing to
deposit credits under section (9) of this rule must offer for sale in Oregon in
model years 2009 through 2011 any PZEV, ATPZEV or ZEV, except Type III ZEVs,
that it offers for sale in California during the same period.
(12) Beginning with the model year 2022, any
manufacturer that produces on-road vehicles over 8,500 pounds GVWR may
generate, bank, and trade ZEV and NZEV credits as required under 13 CCR Section
1963.2.
(13) Violations of failing
to meet the zero-emission vehicle credit and debit requirements pursuant to 13
CCR Section 1962.4 will be determined on a per ZEV value basis for every ZEV
deficit that is not balanced by the end of the specified time allowed under 13
CCR Section 1962.4(h)(2).
