Proposal for a draft supplement to UN R115 or for a draft corrigendum to Supplement 5 to the regulation (reference document WP.29/2012/104). The amendment would replace FCmean with FCnorm and provide an improved definition of the term.
25. Mr. Rijnders described the origin of this issue from previous GFV meetings and that the relatively simple definitional change that everyone has agreed to can be brought to the GRPE as a corrigendum to WP29 approved documents rather than as a supplement to the original regulation However, the GRPE secretariat indicated that it must be made as a supplement, which is procedurally more correct.
26. Mr. Piccolo further described that using the word ‘mean’ in the definition must be changed to ‘norm’ because each parent vehicle must be checked that it is using no more than 20% gasoline.
27. Mr. Rijnders will ask to make this document an informal document and then made into a Formal Document so it can be adopted at the next GRPE (January 2014).
