Text

(a)
The state board shall, at its first opportunity, revise the grant criteria and guidelines adopted pursuant to Section 44287 to incorporate projects in which an applicant turns in nonroad internal combustion technology and equipment that the applicant owns and that still has some useful life, coupled with the purchase of new nonroad zero-emission technology and equipment that is in a similar category or that can perform the same work.
(b)
When it evaluates the benefits of a project described in subdivision (a), the state board shall count both of the following emission reduction streams, provided that they are real, enforceable, quantifiable,
and surplus emission reductions:
(1)
The displacement of the emissions from the older nonroad internal combustion technology and equipment for its remaining life with the new nonroad zero-emission technology and equipment.
(2)
After the time period specified in paragraph (1), the displacement of emissions from new nonroad internal combustion technology and equipment meeting the emission standards in place at time of purchase, with the new nonroad zero-emission technology and equipment over its remaining life.
(c)
A project described in subdivision (a) shall meet the cost-effectiveness criteria in Section 44283 and all other criteria of the program, including the requirement that the emission reductions be real, enforceable,
quantifiable, and surplus.
(d)
The incremental cost of a project described in subdivision (a) may include, at the discretion of the applicant, some or all of the reasonable salvage value of the nonroad internal combustion technology and equipment turned in, as determined by the state board. However, an applicant that elects to include these costs shall be required to meet the cost-effectiveness criteria in Section 44283.
