The dashed lines separating the years show when the Tier 1-2 or 2-3 equipment flexibility program ends.
Red lines - after these dates, owners and operators may not install non-emergency stationary CI ICE that do not meet MY2007 standards (1st red line) or Tier 4 PM standards (2nd red line).
Equipment manufacturers may select Option #1, Option #2, or some of each. Percent of Option #2 engines in 2012 approx. equal to percent of Option #1 engines in 2008-2010
Engine manufacturers must select Option #1 or Option #2 exclusively.

1. Multiple compliance options for 56-130 kW and 130-560 kW power categories. Only the alternate NOx standard shown (harmonized with EU).
2. < 8 kW; Air-cooled DI, hand start applications are exempt from these standards.
3. < 8 kW; Applies to only air-cooled hand start applications. Credit generation is prohibited.
