Current through Register Vol. 63, No. 10, October 1, 2024

Section 340-257-0055 - Enforcement of Advanced Clean Trucks Requirements

The requirements in sections (1) through (3) apply to all vehicle manufacturers that are subject to the rules adopted by reference in OAR 340-257-0050(3).

(1) Audit of Records. A manufacturer must make records of vehicle sales into Oregon available to the DEQ within 30 days of a request for audit to verify the accuracy of the reported information. Submitting false information is a violation of this regulation.

(2) Authority to Suspend, Revoke, or Modify. If the DEQ finds that any ZEV or NZEV credit was obtained based on false information, the credit will be deemed invalid and DEQ may suspend, revoke or modify the credit, as DEQ determines is appropriate.

(3) Violation for Failure to Meet Credit and Deficit Requirements. Any manufacturer that fails to retire an appropriate amount of ZEV or NZEV credits as specified in CCR Title 13, section 1963.3(c), adopted by reference in OAR 340-257-0050(3)(d), and that does not make up deficits within the specified time allowed by CCR Title 13, section 1963.3(b), shall be in violation of these rules. The violation shall be deemed to accrue when the deficit is not balanced by the end of the specified time allowed by CCR Title 13, section 1963.3(b). For the purposes of calculating the number of violations that have occurred or the amount of the civil penalty under OAR chapter 340, division 12, the number of vehicles not meeting the DEQ's standards or procedures shall be equal to the manufacturer's outstanding deficit.
