Flexibility engines certified under the California Air Resources Board’s flexibility program provisions are noncompliant engines unless a previously issued executive order for that engine family indicates the emission standard category is tier 4 interim. You may access these executive orders at the California Air Resources Board website: https://www.arb.ca.gov/msprog/offroad/cert/cert.php For example:

Executive Order U-R-002-0747 was issued on March 16, 2020, for Flexibility Program Engine Family Name “DCEXL15.0AAK,” a Cummins Inc. 2020 model engine. Executive Order U-R-002-0592-2 issued On December 30, 2013, for Engine Family DCEXL15.0AAK indicates the “Emission Standard Category” is tier 4 interim. Use of Engine Family “DCEXL 15.0AAK is compliant.

If you operate a vehicle that is noncompliant with these requirements, the Department deducts a $2000 penalty for each noncompliant engine for each day of operation.

Immediately notify the Engineer if a program operator has determined their product category rule does not allow for development of a facility-specific environmental product declaration. Include written correspondence from the program operator with your notification to the Engineer. If the Engineer determines the development of a facility-specific environmental product declaration cannot be achieved, an environmental product declaration will not be required for that material or product.

You must register on the Department’s Data Interchange for Materials Engineering (DIME) at least 15 days before submitting environmental product declarations. Follow the registration process at:
