Initial working draft for a regulation to provide a framework for approvals of engine conversions (such as in retrofitting an engine for dual-fuel use).

The objective of the 8th EVE meeting will be to discuss the second draft of the EVE Reference Guide, which will also be submitted as an informal document for the 68th GRPE Session. This will include discussion of the Guide recommendations and future work for the EVE informal working group, including potential mandate extension and coordination with the WLTP informal working group.

E-mail presenting AECC concerns with the proposed definition of “retrofit” and clarification of engine family definition parameters.

AECC comments concerning the proposed definition of “retrofit” and clarification of engine family definition parameters.

(Please note that there were web conference meetings that appear to have confused the meeting numbering. According to the minutes of the 15th HDH informal group session, this meeting in Brussels would be the 8th rather than the 7th session of the drafting group.)

Consolidated working draft of the proposed motorcycle on-board diagnostics GTR including the phase 2 OBD amendments.

Draft text prepared by the European Commission for a new GTR on a “Measurement Procedure for Two- or Three-wheeled Light Motor Vehicles Equipped with a Combustion Engine with regard to the Crankcase and Evaporative Emissions”.

Summary of results from research by the Russian Federation into non-exhaust particle emissions from motor vehicles.

The main objective of this proposal is to establish an amendment to GTR No. 2 on the Worldwide harmonized Motorcycle emissions Certification-test procedure (WMTC) to insert Environmental and Propulsion Performance Requirements (EPPR), currently only applicable for two-wheeled motorcycles. Where warranted, other amendments or proposals for new regulations may be developed.

Preliminary comments from India on the draft GTR on L-category vehicle crankcase and evaporative emissions (document EPPR-04-06) and the draft durability testing presented in document EPPR-05-08 which may or may not be established through an amendment to GTR No. 2 or as a separate regulation.
