tests for each engine family.

    (3) Describe how you randomly selected engines.

    (4) Describe your test engines, including the engine family's 

identification and the engine's model year, build date, model number, 

identification number, and number of hours of operation before testing 

for each test engine.

    (5) Identify where you accumulated hours of operation on the engines 

and describe the procedure and schedule you used.

    (6) Provide the test number; the date, time and duration of testing; 

test procedure; initial test results before and after rounding; final 

test results; and final deteriorated test results for all tests. Provide 

the emission results for all measured pollutants. Include information

    (7) Describe completely and justify any nonroutine adjustment,

engine if you did not report it separately under this subpart. Include

following statement:



    We submit this report under Sections 208 and 213 of the Clean Air 

Act. Our production-line testing conformed completely with the 

requirements of 40 CFR part 1048. We have not changed production 

processes or quality-control procedures for the engine family in a way 

that might affect the emission control from production engines. All the 

information in this report is true and accurate, to the best of my 

knowledge. I know of the penalties for violating the Clean Air Act and 

the regulations. (Authorized Company Representative)



    (d) Send electronic reports of production-line testing to the
