(B) the total number of vehicles or motorcycle engines produced for sale in California and their applicable designated emissions standards.
(2) The manufacturer's average HC or HC + NOx exhaust emissions, whichever applies, shall meet the applicable corporate average standard at the end of the manufacturer's production for the model year.
(3) Production and sale of vehicles which result in non-compliance with the California standard for the model year shall cause a manufacturer to be subject to civil penalties, per vehicle, pursuant to Health and Safety Code Section 43154. All excess emissions resulting from final non-compliance with the California standard shall be made up in the following model year.
(4) For a period of up to one year following the end of the model year, for each model the manufacturer shall submit California sales and registration data as it becomes available.
(c) The test procedures for determining compliance with these standards are set forth in Subparts E and F, Part 86, Title 40, Code of Federal Regulations, as they existed on April 15,1978, for 1978 through 1987 model years, and they existed on July 7, 1986, for 1988 and subsequent model years.
(1) When the word "Administrator" is used in these federal regulations, it shall mean the executive officer of the state board.
(2) When a California service accumulation vehicle is used, the California standards for Class I and II motorcycles for the manufacturer designated standards (STDjx ) for Class III motorcycles as defined above shall supersede corresponding federal standards in Subpart E of the federal regulations.
(3) Pursuant to the federal certification protocol under 40 CFR Section 86.432-78, a manufacturer has the option of applying an outlier test point procedure. Where the manufacturer chooses to apply the optional procedure, the California statistical outlier procedure entitled "Calculation of t-Statistic for Deterioration Data Outlier Test," dated December 17, 1976, shall be used to test for irregular data from a durability-data set. If any data point is identified by the manufacturer as a statistical outlier, the executive officer shall determine, on the basis of an engineering analysis of the cause of the outlier submitted by the manufacturer, whether the outlier is to be rejected. The outlier shall be rejected only if the executive officer determines that the outlier does not reflect representative characteristics of the emission control system anomaly, test procedure error, or an extraordinary circumstance not expected to recur. Only the identified outlier shall be eliminated; other data at that test point (i.e., data for other pollutants) shall not be eliminated unless the executive officer determines, based on the engineering analysis, that they also do not reflect representative characteristics of the emission control system. All durability test data, including any outliers and the manufacturer's engineering analysis shall be submitted with the final application.
(4) When a federal service accumulation vehicle does not meet the applicable California engine family standards, a stabilized "worst case" California configuration vehicle may be utilized to demonstrate compliance with the California standards.
Before an emission test is conducted, the vehicle shall accumulate the following applicable minimum test distance:
Class Distance (Kilometers)
I 2500
II 2500
III 3500

The test shall be conducted at an accumulated distance within 250 kilometers (155 miles) of the nominal test distance.
A deterioration factor (DF) defined as the extrapolated useful life distance emissions divided by the interpolated minimum test distance emissions shall be computed using emissions data from the federal service accumulation vehicle. The DF shall be applied to the stabilized vehicle test data to obtain useful life emissions. The useful life emissions shall be equal to or less than the applicable California standards in order to obtain California Certification.
(d) The state board will accept the Environmental Protection Agency's Certificate of Conformity as equivalent to California Certification for model-years 1978 through 1981.
(e) Motorcycle manufacturers shall submit to the executive officer a complete copy of the application for certification submitted to the Environmental Protection Agency together with a copy of the Certificate of Conformity.
The above information shall be submitted for each engine family prior to sale or offering for sale of 1978 through 1981 model-year motorcycles.
The motorcycle manufacturers shall submit directly to the executive officer a complete copy of the application for certification for 1982 and subsequent model years.
(f)(1) Small Volume Manufacturers: Exhaust emission standards for Class III motorcycles and motorcycle engines produced by small volume manufacturers are as follows:
(A) For Model Years through 2007, Class III motorcycles and motorcycle engines shall meet the applicable HC-only and CO emission limits specified in the Table of Standards in subsection 1958(b).
(B) For Model Year 2008 and subsequent, Class III motorcycles and motorcycle engines shall emit no more than 12 grams of CO per kilometer and 1.4 grams per kilometer HC + NOx, applied as a corporate average, provided that no engine family shall emit greater than 2.5 grams per kilometer HC + NOx.
(2) To obtain certification as a small volume manufacturer pursuant to this subsection, the manufacturer shall submit product information and estimated sales data with the certification application for each engine family sold in California. As a condition of obtaining certification as a small volume manufacturer, the manufacturer shall submit annually to the Executive Officer a summary of its efforts and progress toward meeting more stringent HC + NOx exhaust emission standards. The summary shall include a description of the manufacturer's current HC + NOx emission control development status, along with supporting test data, and future planned development work.

(g) Early-Compliance Credits
(1) Manufacturers which sell Class III motorcycles or motorcycle engines in California certified as meeting either a 0.8 g/km or 0.4 g/km HC+NOx level prior to Model Year 2008 can receive credits for use in the Model Year 2008 corporate average upon written approval by the Executive Officer. Each unit of Class III motorcycle or motorcycle engine sold between Model Years 1999 and 2008 and which meets the requirements of this subsection shall be multiplied by whichever X multiplier applies, as shown in the following table:

Note: Each unit of an early compliant certified motorcycle and motorcycle engine is counted cumulatively toward the MY 2008 corporate average.
(2) Applications for early compliance credits pursuant to this subsection shall include in writing all emissions data, test protocols, equipment specifications, operating conditions, and any other technical information requested by the Executive Officer.
(3) The Executive Order approving early compliance credits under this subsection shall specify the exact amount of credits granted, the date of expiration for the credits, and all enforcement provisions applicable to the use of early compliance credits. Each motorcycle and each motorcycle that incorporates an engine for which early compliance credits have been granted pursuant to this subsection shall specify on its "California Motor Vehicle Emission Control And Smog Index Label" (Section 1965, Title 13, California Code of Regulations), in addition to all other existing requirements, the actual HC + NOx engine family exhaust emissions level for which the vehicle or engine has been granted early compliance credit.
