This book was released on 2018-09-04 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tier 3 Motor Vehicle Emission and Fuel Standards, Nonroad Engine and Equipment Programs, and MARPOL Annex VI Implementation (US Environmental Protection Agency Regulation) (EPA) (2018 Edition) The Law Library presents the complete text of the Tier 3 Motor Vehicle Emission and Fuel Standards, Nonroad Engine and Equipment Programs, and MARPOL Annex VI Implementation (US Environmental Protection Agency Regulation) (EPA) (2018 Edition). Updated as of May 29, 2018 The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is taking direct final action on several amendments involving technical clarifications for different mobile source regulations. First, we are making a variety of corrections to the Tier 3 motor vehicle emission and fuel standards. These changes generally correct or clarify various provisions from the Tier 3 rule without expanding the Tier 3 program or otherwise making substantive changes. Second, we are revising the test procedures and compliance provisions for nonroad spark-ignition engines at or below 19 kW (and for the corresponding nonroad equipment) to conform to current practices. The changes to evaporative emission test procedures also apply to some degree to other types of nonroad equipment powered by volatile liquid fuels. Third, we are addressing an ambiguity regarding permissible design approaches for portable fuel containers meeting evaporative emission standards. Fourth, we are revising the regulations to more carefully align with current requirements that apply to marine vessels with diesel engines as specified under MARPOL Annex VI. Fifth, we are correcting typographical errors in regulatory changes finalized in the Voluntary Quality Assurance Program rulemaking.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Clean Air Act Amendments of 1990 established "Tier 1" standards to limit tailpipe emissions from new motor vehicles, and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is required to determine if more stringent requirements are needed to attain or maintain National Ambient Air Quality Standards. EPA also must assess the availability and cost-effectiveness of technologies necessary to control emissions. In a report submitted to Congress in August 1998, EPA concluded that tougher standards are necessary and that essential technologies are available and cost-effective.

This book was released on 2014-08-02 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) developed a year 2007 air quality modeling platform in support of the Tier 3 Motor Vehicle Emission and Fuel Standards. The air quality modeling platform consists of all of the emissions inventories, ancillary files needed for emissions modeling, and the meteorological, initial condition, and boundary condition files needed to run the air quality model. This platform uses all Criteria Air Pollutants (CAPs) and a select set of Hazardous Air Pollutants (HAPs). This document focuses on the emissions modeling components of the 2007 platform, including the emission inventories and the ancillary data and the approaches used to transform emission inventories for use in air quality modeling. The Tier 3 modeling platform was developed by implementing specific modifications to the "CAP-BAFM 2007-Based Platform, Version 5," also known as the "2007v5" platform. The 2007v5 platform was used to support the Regulatory Impact Assessment (RIA) for the 2012 Final National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS) for particulate matter less than 2.5 microns (PM2.5). The Technical Support Document (TSD) "Preparation of Emissions Inventories for the Version 5.0, 2007 Emissions Modeling Platform" contains many additional details on the aspects of the Tier 3 and 2007v5 platforms that are shared. The TSD is available from the Emissions Modeling Clearinghouse website, http: //www.epa.gov/ttn/chief/emch/, under the section entitled "Particulate Matter (PM) NAAQS (2007v5) Platform." The appendices available for the 2007v5 TSD that do not reference the specific PM NAAQS modeling cases are also relevant to the "Tier 3" platform. Many emissions inventory components of the Tier 3 air quality modeling platform are based on the 2008 National Emissions Inventory version 2, hereafter referred to as the "2008 NEI," with updated inventory data for some emission sectors. In particular, a version of the Motor Vehicle Emissions Simulator (MOVES) designed to represent the impacts of the Tier 3 Motor Vehicle Emission and Fuel Standards (MOVESTier3FRM) was used to generate emission factors for onroad mobile sources. The emissions modeling tool used to create the air quality model-ready emissions from the emission inventories was the Sparse Matrix Operator Kernel Emissions (SMOKE) modeling system (http: //www.smoke- model.org/index.cfm) version 3.5 beta. Emissions were created for 36 km and 12 km national grids. The gridded meteorological model used for Tier 3 is the Weather Research and Forecasting Model (WRF, http: //wrf-model.org) version 3.3, Advanced Research WRF (ARW) core (Skamarock, et al., 2008). The WRF Model is a mesoscale numerical weather prediction system developed for both operational forecasting and atmospheric research applications. WRF was run for 2007 over a domain covering the continental United States at a 36 km and 12 km resolution with 35 vertical layers2. This meteorological run was different than the one used for the 2007v5 platform.

This book was released on 2015-09-28 with total page 812 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The light-duty vehicle fleet is expected to undergo substantial technological changes over the next several decades. New powertrain designs, alternative fuels, advanced materials and significant changes to the vehicle body are being driven by increasingly stringent fuel economy and greenhouse gas emission standards. By the end of the next decade, cars and light-duty trucks will be more fuel efficient, weigh less, emit less air pollutants, have more safety features, and will be more expensive to purchase relative to current vehicles. Though the gasoline-powered spark ignition engine will continue to be the dominant powertrain configuration even through 2030, such vehicles will be equipped with advanced technologies, materials, electronics and controls, and aerodynamics. And by 2030, the deployment of alternative methods to propel and fuel vehicles and alternative modes of transportation, including autonomous vehicles, will be well underway. What are these new technologies - how will they work, and will some technologies be more effective than others? Written to inform The United States Department of Transportation's National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) and Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Corporate Average Fuel Economy (CAFE) and greenhouse gas (GHG) emission standards, this new report from the National Research Council is a technical evaluation of costs, benefits, and implementation issues of fuel reduction technologies for next-generation light-duty vehicles. Cost, Effectiveness, and Deployment of Fuel Economy Technologies for Light-Duty Vehicles estimates the cost, potential efficiency improvements, and barriers to commercial deployment of technologies that might be employed from 2020 to 2030. This report describes these promising technologies and makes recommendations for their inclusion on the list of technologies applicable for the 2017-2025 CAFE standards.

Book excerpt: In December 1999, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) issued new Tier 2 rules for vehicle emissions and gasoline. Those rules impose (1) stringent new emission standards for passenger cars and light trucks and (2) limits on the amount of sulfur in gasoline. EPA's models predict that by 2010, when the new rules will begin to affect air quality, only a handful of areas would be out of compliance absent the rules. Although the rules will do little to improve the health and welfare of American citizens, they will impose huge costs, particularly on western states that will be hit hardest by the limits on sulfur. Why impose new rules that will cost consumers at least $3.5 billion a year and actually reduce air quality in some areas? Perhaps because a uniform standard will force everyone to share in the cost of developing vehicles suitable for California and the Northeast.
