EPA Emission Standards for model year
2007 and Later HD Diesel Engines, g/bhp·hr
PM
NOx
NMHC
0.01 g/bhp-hr
0.20 g/bhp-hr
0.14 g/bhp-hr
The PM emission standard will take full effect in the 2007 heavy-duty engine model year. The NOx and NMHC standards will be phased in for diesel engines between 2007 and 2010. The phase-in would be on a percent-of-sales basis: 50% from 2007 to 2009 and 100% in 2010 (gasoline engines are subject to these standards based on a phase-in requiring 50% compliance in 2008 and 100% compliance in 2009).
