EMISSIONS NOTE
"California Air Resources Board (CARB) has approved alignment with the federal New Source Performance Standards (NSPS). Such alignment allows for emergency standby engines to be exempt from Tier 4 emissions standards; however, local air districts can require more

stringent emissions control. The prospective buyer of the equipment quoted above is hereby notified the NSPS exemption does not apply to non-emergency standby engines (e.g. prime power applications such as peak shaving, parallel operation with the grid, or storm avoidance), or portable engines, even if used for emergency standby. Consult the local air district for permitting requirements and required emissions controls. Presently, South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD) Rule 1470 requires the use of a particulate filter if an engine is located within 100 meters of a school, and may require either a diesel particulate filter or an oxidation catalyst, depending upon engine size, if the installation is within 50 meters of a sensitive receptor. Particulate filters may also be required for Title V and major polluting facilities. For emissions requirements specific to the project for which this engine is being quoted, please contact SCAQMD at 909-396-2000. Unless otherwise listed above a DPF is not included in this proposal, please call for quotation if a DPF is required for this project.”
Caterpillar engines require a minimum of 30% load to prevent engine damage due to wet-stacking. Depending upon the permit and site specific conditions, SCAQMD emergency engine permits will only allow between 20 and 50 hours of runtime per year for non-emergency applications such as testing and exercising. Passive Diesel Particulate Filter systems depend on generator loading of a minimum of 50-60% to achieve minimum exhaust temperature threshold to keep soot regeneration and the filter backpressure within acceptable levels. If the engine will be operated consistently at low loads/low exhaust temperatures, the customer should make provisions to add load via facility operations or a load bank. Active Diesel Particulate Filter systems require no external load in order to regenerate. If listed above, Passive DPF option pricing, does not include a load bank or a load bank circuit breaker. If a load bank is needed for this project, please call for quotation.

9. Permits for Equipment Design, Installation and Operation.
As a supplier of equipment, disclaims responsibility for any and all permits or licenses necessary to design, install and operate the equipment due to zoning, air quality, environmental, safety, building or construction codes or use permits pertaining to Buyer’s particular application of such equipment or any similar type of permit. Special attention should be given to the requirements of local air district rules and California Air Resources Board (CARB) regulations pertaining to permit requirements. Seller is quoting on equipment based on the specifications set forth in this Quotation. If additional equipment or engine modifications are required beyond the specifications, such as additional equipment required for compliance by a local air district or CARB, those items are not included and are the responsibility of Buyer. For example, South Coast AQMD (SCAQMD) Rule 1470 may require controls and limits on particulate matter, especially when the engine installation is within 100-meters from a school, or within 50 meters of a sensitive receptor (defined in Rule 1470). Ultra low sulfur fuel is required for particulate filters. CARB Diesel Fuel, or other CARB-approved alternative fuel, is also required for compression ignition (CI) engines operated in California. When indicated in the bill of materials, the proposed equipment may be SCAQMD pre-approved as Certified Equipment. This certification does not eliminate the permit process or responsibility of others to obtain a permit. Procurement of certified equipment assures permitability, reduces the permit processing fees and reduces the time necessary to obtain the permit through SCAQMD.
10. Start-up, Commissioning and Operating Requirements.
Equipment provided in this Quotation may require start-up and commissioning, including inspection(s), to ensure the equipment is installed in accordance with manufacturer(s)’s recommendations and specifications. If Seller has commissioned the equipment, Buyer agrees not to modify the design or components of the installation such that the modifications would violate any legal requirements of the installation, or would cause the installation to deviate from manufacturer(s)’s recommendations and specifications. Buyer acknowledges and agrees that, with respect to products sold to Buyer in connection with this Quotation, Buyer shall have the sole responsibility to ensure the products are properly installed, operated and maintained in accordance with the manufacturer(s)’s recommendations and specifications, and to determine and comply with all applicable Federal, state, local and regulated use restrictions and requirements, including, without limitation, the continuing responsibility to ensure that the use of product is in full compliance with all applicable environmental laws and regulations. Failure to install, operate and maintain the products in accordance with the manufacturer(s)’s recommendations and specifications will invalidate any applicable manufacturer’s warranty.
