Sec.  1068.405  What is in a test order?



    (a) In the test order, we will specify the following things:



[[Page 842]]



    (1) The engine family and configuration (if any) we have identified 

for testing.

    (2) The engine assembly plant, storage facility, or (if you import 

the engines) port facility from which you must select engines.

    (3) The procedure for selecting engines for testing, including a 

selection rate.

    (4) The test procedures, duty cycles, and test points, as 

appropriate, for testing the engines to show that they meet emission 

standards.

    (b) We may state that we will select the test engines.

    (c) We may identify alternate engine families or configurations for 

testing in case we determine the intended engines are not available for 

testing or if you do not produce enough engines to meet the minimum rate 

for selecting test engines.

    (d) We may include other directions or information in the test 

order.

    (e) We may ask you to show us that you meet any additional 

requirements that apply to your engines (closed crankcases, for 

example).

    (f) In anticipation of a potential audit, you may give us a list of 

your preferred engine families and the corresponding assembly plants, 

storage facilities, or (if you import the engines) port facilities from 

which we should select engines for testing. The information would apply 

only for a single model year, so it would be best to include this 

information in your application for certification. If you give us this 

list before we issue a test order, we will consider your 

recommendations, but we may select engines differently.

    (g) If you also do routine production-line testing with the selected 

engine family in the same time period, the test order will tell you what 

changes you might need to make in your production-line testing schedule.
