§ 2021.2. Compliance Requirements for Heavy Cranes.
A fleet owner with a fleet comprised of one or more heavy cranes shall comply using one or more of the following options. Regardless of the option chosen, the heavy crane fleet as a whole must remain in compliance.
(a) Heavy Crane Phase-In Schedule. Beginning July 1, 2019 and January 1 of every subsequent compliance year, a fleet owner with a fleet comprised of one or more heavy cranes as defined in section 2021(b)(16) may comply by meeting the requirements as set forth below in Table A-1 for the entire fleet of heavy cranes excluding low use vehicles as defined in section 2021(b)(18) or publicly funded vehicles during the funding contract period. The upgrade deadline for 2019 will be 60 days after the effective date, July 1, 2019, of this regulation. The owner must comply with the reporting and record keeping requirements in sections 2021.3(a) and 2021.3(b) for all heavy cranes in the fleet.
(1) Any heavy crane that meets PM BACT prior to January 1, 2018, will be exempt from the requirement to upgrade to a 2010 model year or newer engine and will be treated as a 2010 model year engine that counts towards meeting the upgrade requirement in Table A-1. To claim this option, fleet owners must comply with the reporting requirements in section 2021.3(a)(5) to 2021.3(a)(8) and 2021.3(a)(11) for any heavy crane that meets PM BACT within 30 days after the effective date, July 1, 2019, of this regulation. If it is reported by this deadline, this upgrade option may be transferred to a new owner when the heavy crane is sold.

(2) Low use heavy cranes that exceed 1,000 miles in any compliance year must immediately be brought into compliance as specified in section 2021.2(a) and 2021.2(c).
