The USA emission legislation
(Federal Clean Air Act)
The Federal Clean Air Act Section 203.a (3) states
that the removal of air pollution control devices or the
modification of a non-road engine certified according
to norms issued by EPA (Environmental Protection
Agency) to a non certified configuration is prohibited.
The federal regulations which control the execution of
the Clean
Air Act for non-road engines, 40 CFR (Code of
Federal Regulations) section 89.1003(a)(3)(i), states:
The following acts and the causing thereof are
prohibited:
For a person to remove or render inoperative a
device or element of design Installed on or in a
non-road engine vehicle or equipment In
compliance with the regulations In this section
prior to its sale and delivery to the ultimate
purchaser or knowingly to remove or render
inoperative such a device or element of design
after the sale and delivery to the ultimate
purchaser.
The law provides a penalty of up to USD 2,500 for
each violation
Modifications such as recalibration of the fuel system
so that the engine will exceed the certified
horsepower or certified torque is an example of
prohibited changes.
You must not make such modifications to a certified
non-road engine, certified according to norms issued
by EPA, the result of which would be an engine that
does not match the engine configuration which is
certified according to Federal Standards.
