Abstract:
EPA is proposing a new set of emission standards for new aircraft engines. The proposed rule would require manufacturers to report production volumes, technical parameters, and emission information in addition to what is already required under the Greenhouse Gas Reporting Rule.

Short Statement:
Clean Air Act section 231 (42 U.S.C. 7571) authorizes EPA to adopt emission standards for aircraft engines. The Clean Air Act additionally provides broad authority for EPA to collect information related to the regulations we adopt for aircraft and other emission sources (42 U.S.C. 7414(a)(1)). EPA is accordingly adopting a new set of emission standards for aircraft gas turbine engines and adding a requirement for manufacturers to submit information related to these standards. EPA will use the data to verify compliance with emission standards and to better understand the characteristics of aircraft engines that are subject to emission standards, including any ways in which emission standards influence engine designs. This information will be very helpful in future rulemakings as we continue to explore appropriate and achievable emission standards for aircraft engines. This will be especially useful in evaluating alternative approaches to specifying the transition to new standards. For example, we may want to specify a certain number of allowable exemptions for a transition period, or allow manufacturers to "earn" an allowance to produce higher-emitting engines for a time with emission credits, offsetting the higher emissions with other engines that have emission levels below what would otherwise be required.
