Sec. 1039.225  How do I amend my application for certification to include 
new or modified engines?

    Before we issue you a certificate of conformity, you may amend your 
application to include new or modified engine configurations, subject to 
the provisions of this section. After we have issued your certificate of 
conformity, you may send us an amended application requesting that we 
include new or modified engine configurations within the scope of the 
certificate, subject to the provisions of this section. You must amend 
your application if any changes occur with respect to any information 
included in your application.
    (a) You must amend your application before you take either of the 
following actions:
    (1) Add an engine (that is, an additional engine configuration) to 
an engine family. In this case, the engine added must be consistent with 
other engines in the engine family with respect to the criteria listed 
in Sec. 1039.230.
    (2) Change an engine already included in an engine family in a way 
that may affect emissions, or change any of the

components you described in your application for certification. This 
includes production and design changes that may affect emissions any 
time during the engine's lifetime.
    (b) To amend your application for certification, send the Designated 
Compliance Officer the following information:
    (1) Describe in detail the addition or change in the engine model or 
configuration you intend to make.
    (2) Include engineering evaluations or data showing that the amended 
engine family complies with all applicable requirements. You may do this 
by showing that the original emission-data engine is still appropriate 
with respect to showing compliance of the amended family with all 
applicable requirements.
    (3) If the original emission-data engine for the engine family is 
not appropriate to show compliance for the new or modified nonroad 
engine, include new test data showing that the new or modified nonroad 
engine meets the requirements of this part.
    (c) We may ask for more test data or engineering evaluations. You 
must give us these within 30 days after we request them.
    (d) For engine families already covered by a certificate of 
conformity, we will determine whether the existing certificate of 
conformity covers your new or modified nonroad engine. You may ask for a 
hearing if we deny your request (see Sec. 1039.820).
    (e) For engine families already covered by a certificate of 
conformity, you may start producing the new or modified nonroad engine 
anytime after you send us your amended application, before we make a 
decision under paragraph (d) of this section. However, if we determine 
that the affected engines do not meet applicable requirements, we will 
notify you to cease production of the engines and may require you to 
recall the engines at no expense to the owner. Choosing to produce 
engines under this paragraph (e) is deemed to be consent to recall all 
engines that we determine do not meet applicable emission standards or 
other requirements and to remedy the nonconformity at no expense to the 
owner. If you do not provide information required under paragraph (c) of 
this section within 30 days, you must stop producing the new or modified 
nonroad engines.
