Submission from the European Commission and Italy to add transitional provisions in Regulation No. 96 to take into consideration the technical impossibility to install engines compliant with Stages IIIB and IV into some category T vehicles.

Proposal to align UN R96 with European Directive 97/68/EC as amended in 2012 and to align table of 8 mode cycle with 2010/26/EU.

Brief presentation on enhancements to the European Union non-road mobile machinery emissions regulation and a proposal to upgrade UN Regulation No. 96 accordingly.

Proposal by the European Commission to align the provisions of UN Regulation No. 96 with the 8-mode cycle of European Directive 2010/26/EU and the 2012 amendment of European Directive 97/68/EC.

Copy of a presentation on the revision of Directive 97/68/EC on non-road mobile machinery engine type approval and emissions limits.

Proposal to replace Directive 97/68/EC with an updated and more appropriate regulation, including expansion of the scope to include additional engine categories and to adapt the emission stages last amended in 2004 to the current state of technology. Furthermore, the regulation would address mismatches between emission limits and certain engine categories.

Presentation of EU plans for new NRMM requirements pursuant to the revision of Directive 97/68/EC.

Regulation (EU) 2016/1628, also known as the NRMM Regulation or Stage V Regulation, restructures the EU regulation of non-road mobile machinery ranging from lawn mowers to snow mobiles to bulldozers, but excludes agricultural machinery (to be subjected to a separate EU regulation). In order to maintain the alignment between UN Regulations on emissions and EU emissions regulations, the EC proposes GRPE work on a new series of amendments to UN R96 (and by extension UN R120) for publication in 2018.

Proposal of a consolidated revision of UN R96 to align the UN Regulation with Regulation (EU) 2016/162 concerning gaseous and particulate pollutant emission limits and type-approval for internal combustion engines for non-road mobile machinery.

Supplementary information on the proposal to align UN R96 with Regulation (EU) 2016/162 concerning gaseous and particulate pollutant emission limits and type-approval for internal combustion engines for non-road mobile machinery.

Presentation regarding the proposal for a 05 series of amendments to UN R96 to align the regulation with European Union emissions requirements for non-road mobile machinery.

EC request for comments on the proposal for a 05 series of amendments to UN R96 to align the UN Regulation with Regulation (EU) 2016/162 concerning gaseous and particulate pollutant emission limits and type-approval for internal combustion engines for non-road mobile machinery.

Document GRPE/2018/3 presents a consolidated revision of UN R96 to align the UN Regulation with Regulation (EU) 2016/162 concerning gaseous and particulate pollutant emission limits and type-approval for internal combustion engines for non-road mobile machinery. This proposal presents editorial improvements and corrects the provision allowing contracting parties to require in-service monitoring of engines by explicitly excluding its application from the scope of the Regulation.
