TITLE 40--PROTECTION OF ENVIRONMENT
CHAPTER I--ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY (CONTINUED)
PART 94--CONTROL OF EMISSIONS FROM MARINE COMPRESSION-IGNITION ENGINES--
Table of Contents
Subpart D Certification Averaging, Banking, and Trading Provisions
Sec. 94.305 Credit generation and use calculation.
(a) For each participating engine family, calculate
THC+NOX and PM emission credits (positive or negative)
according to the equation in paragraph (b) of this section and round
emissions to the nearest one-hundredth of a megagram (Mg). Use
consistent units throughout the calculation.
(b) Credits (Mg) for each engine family are calculated as: Emission
credits = (Std--FEL)x(UL)x(Production)x(AvgPR)x(LF)x(10-6)
Where:
(i) Std = the applicable cycle-weighted marine engine
THC+NOX or PM emission standard in grams per kilowatt-hour.
(ii) FEL = the family emission limit for the engine family in grams
per kilowatt-hour. (The FEL may not exceed the limit established in
Sec. 94.304(m) for each pollutant.)
(iii) UL = the useful life in hours of operation.
(iv) Production = the number of engines participating in the
averaging, banking, and trading program within the given engine family
during the calendar year (or the number of engines in
[[Page 633]]
the subset of the engine family for which credits are being calculated).
Quarterly production projections are used for initial certification.
Actual applicable production/sales volumes are used for end-of-year
compliance determination.
(v) AvgPR = average power rating of all of the configurations within
an engine family, calculated on a sales-weighted basis, in kilowatts.
(vi) LF = the load factor, dependent on whether the engine is
intended for propulsion or auxiliary applications, as follows:
(A) 0.69 for propulsion engines,
(B) 0.51 for auxiliary engines.
