Regulation 11: Hazardous Pollutants, Rule 17: Limited Use Stationary Compression Ignition (Diesel) Engines in Agricultural Use

The Bay Area Air Quality Management District is proposing Regulation 11, Rule 17: Limited Use Stationary Compression Ignition Engines in Agricultural Service as a local regulation that is equivalent to the Air Toxic Control Measure (ATCM) for Stationary Compression Ignition (CI-also referred to as diesel) Engines adopted by the California Air Resources Board (CARB) for the same category of sources. The intent of this regulation is to adopt CARB requirements for stationary engines in agricultural operations, but to also provide an exemption for engines used less than 20 hours per year, and to provide an Alternate Compliance Schedule for engines used less than 100 hours per year that will extend the compliance deadlines to 2020 for existing Tier 0 and Tier 1 low-use engines, and will extend the compliance deadline to 2025 for existing Tier 2 low use.
