Integrated into UN R96 as part of Revision 2 of the regulation.

This proposal seeks to align UN R96 with EU Directive 2011/87/EU, delaying by three years the introduction of Stage IIIB and IV engines for certain Category T farm tractors. These tractors are specialised machines intended to operate in vineyards and orchards in southern Europe.

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.

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

GRPE-adopted proposal based on a 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 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.

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.

Text as adopted by the Working Party on Pollution and Energy (GRPE) at its 65th session, based upon a 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.

UNECE “background note” providing information on developments in air pollution, the results of recent studies on the harmful effects of diesel exhausts, policy developments in the reduction of pollutant emissions to address health and environmental concerns.

Proposal to enable continued type approval of engines meeting earlier versions of UN R96 provided that the engines in question are intended for markets applying such levels earlier of regulatory stringency.

Proposal to enable Contracting Parties to continue to issue type approvals for agricultural tractor and non-road mobile machinery engines according to earlier versions of the Regulation provided such engines are destined for sale in countries that apply the earlier versions. In other words, a manufacturer would be able to obtain approvals in its home country based upon previous sets of requirements that may not be those applied within the home country (but are used in other markets).

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.

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 align the requirements related to measurement equipment linearity verification in Regulation No. 49 with the provisions in Regulation No. 96.

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.

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.

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.

Proposal to introduce provisions against tampering with emissions control devices.

Proposal to update the PMP mandate with a view to delivering the following results:

• Proposal for a new methodology for exhaust PN measurement with a d50 cut-off size reduced to 10 nm: June 2020
• Proposal for HD raw exhaust PN sampling and extension of sub-23 nm procedure to HD engines: January 2021
• Proposal for LD PN-PEMS 10 nm specifications : June 2021 (tbc)
• Proposal for a common test procedure for the measurement of particle brake emissions from conventional ICE LDVs: December 2021.

Proposal aims at permitting the use of hydrogen (H2) as fuel for approval of internal combustion engines to be installed in agricultural and forestry tractors and in non-road mobile machinery, with regard to the emissions of pollutants by the engine.

Proposal aims at to fix administrative or typographic errors in the Regulation.
