Given the wide range of engine families within the fleet, the multitude of applications, and the various emission control systems possible, it was necessary that ARB establish a multi-level verification process for the retrofit program. There are three verification levels for PM emission control strategies and only systems expected to reduce PM emissions by at least 25%, or to achieve PM levels of 0.01 g/bhp-hr will be considered for ARB's verification approval. Although not a requirement at this time if a diesel emission control strategy also reduces NOx emissions by at least 15%, this will be included in the verification.
Verification Classifications for Diesel Emission Control Strategies
| Pollutant | Reduction |
Classification |
| PM | < 25% | Not verified |
| > 25% | Level 1 |
|
| > 50% | Level 2 |
|
| > 85%, or < 0.01 g/bhp-hr | Level 3 |
Optional Verification for NOx Reductions
| NOx | < 15% | Not verified |
| > 15% | Verified in 5% increments |
