Subject: Kirby Engine Issue
It was good bumping into you Tuesday. As I mentioned, our folks are very worried about EPA policies that suddenly prohibited one of our newly acquired companies from performing an existing contract simply because Kirby bought its parent company. This is a $43 million contract. We need to put people to work building this equipment, but can't do so until this is resolved. Time is running out for us to get the equipment built by the deadline in the contract and deliver it to the customer, which is expecting an on time delivery of its order. We would appreciate any help and guidance you can offer with respect to this issue. For your ready reference, I am reattaching the one pager on this, as well as the latest draft of our application for the hardship waiver. The substance of the request is the same, but it has changed from the version we sent you previously in that we have adjusted it to reflect only information for the specific subsidiary, Stewart and Stevenson Manufacturing Technologies, Inc., that is the party to the contract with the customer and thus is will be the applicant for the waiver. The earlier version included information pertaining to the parent company.
If there is anything further you need from our people, we are standing by. We appreciate your taking the time to consider this matter.
Thanks.

e. Fully describe all equipment you manufacture incorporating Non-road Compression Ignition (NRCI) engines. All equipment described in the question above are powered by non road compression ignition engines.
f. List all engines by manufacturer you currently or in the past have incorporated into your
equipment.
MTU 12V2000
>560kW
MTU 12V4000S83 >560kW
MTU 12V4000T94 >560kW
CAT 3516C
>560kW (export only)
g. Fully describe the equipment above that is the subject of this hardship application. The equipment requiring hardship relief is a fleet of 40 well stimulation units under contract and designed to be built with Tier 2 MTU 12V4000 engines. These units were designed and engineered starting in December 2016, and are being built prior to the expiration of the TPEM program to meet the customer's immediate demand as well to be compatible with the series of 119 units with identical engines and equipment previously purchased by this customer.
5. To the best of your ability, list the top three competitors for each model of equipmentyou produce, a. Provide your market share for each model produced, and an estimate of your competitors' respective market share. SSMT controls approximately 17% of the market for well stimulation units of the type it builds. Its competitors control 74%, and customers which also produce their own equipment control about 9%. SSMT considers its top three competitors to be National Oilwell Vareo (NOV), AF Global (NRG), and Modern USA (Dragon).
b. Do you supply unique or niche equipment that may cause a shortage in the market (i.e., no other competitor builds equipment to serve this particular function)? The equipment produced SSMT is comparable in general function to other well stimulation equipment available on the market. However, the equipment is custom-designed and engineered to meet specific geological, operational, and site conditions. As a result, the equipment represented in this request is unique in that it was designed to meet the customer's specific requirements for the geographic area and operations in which the equipment will be used. There is no other equipment that would be available to meet the customer's requirements by or even in close proximity to the required delivery date as it would take approximately [612] months to design, engineer and build an alternative.
6. Is your company the Equipment Manufacturer? Yes, SSMT is the equipment manufacturer for this hardship request.

a. State that you have read and understand 40 CFR 1039.625(a) SSMT has read and understands 40 CFR 1039.625(a).
b. Do you have the primary responsibility for designing and manufacturing the equipment? If you import any pieces of your equipment, fully describe to what extent the equipment is imported. SSMT holds the primary responsibility for designing and manufacturing the equipment. It works closely with its customers to design and engineer customized and specialized equipment that meets specific well design and pressure criteria. None of the equipment is imported.
c. Do you install some engines in the equipment? If so, do you receive the engines from your supplier as a power pack (i.e, a modular powertrain including the engine, radiator, transmission, or other supporting components) or with no supporting components installed? Yes, SSMT installs engines in the equipment. Engines and the other equipment components are received separately. The engines are not pre-assembled into power packs or modular skid units with main components already installed.
d. Provide a full description of the designing and manufacturing activities devoted to each piece of equipment. Equipment is designed and engineered to meet the customer's specific well completion and operational needs. SSMT first meets with its customer to discuss the specific application for the equipment. Engineering representatives from both the customer and SSMT meet to detail aspects related to the performance demands of the equipment, component reliability and compatibility, and operation and maintenance requirements. The design and engineering phase requires approximately 6 months. SSMT then develops an initial proposal for the equipment, designed to meet the specifications identified with the customer. The customer may make changes based upon any new knowledge or performance criteria that may change the design. Once the design and initial engineering are complete, parts and materials are ordered. Equipment is typically ordered in fleet quantity, to keep maintenance and future part ordering consistent. For these particular contracts, the customer has previously ordered a total of 119 identical units, specifically to keep the maintenance and operations consistent. SSMT then begins manufacturing of the equipment by installing the components on the chassis. Once all chassis have been completed, they are individually function tested to ensure no major issues occurred during assembly. Once confirmed that the equipment operates properly, final equipment finishing, including painting and control system testing, is completed. The units may also be performance tested depending upon customer requirements. Typically, the process from design through completed manufacturing takes about one year. Engineering, component selection, and product use are all developed by SSMT.

7. Provide complete sales data for all models you have manufactured over the past 5 years: a. List sales data on a model-by-model basis 2012 145 units using Tier 2 engines 2013 21 units using Tier 2 engines 2014 94 units using Tier 2 engines 2015 12 units using Tier 2 engines 2016 0 units were produced in 2016.
b. List any known causes of increased or decreased sales, for example: natural disasters, recessions, emission standard changes, customer preference for established engine technology, customer refusal to purchase technology, etc. The market experienced a downturn due to decreased oil prices in late 2014. The equipment SSMT produces is primarily for the oil and gas industry, and with fewer wells being explored and produced, the demand for SSMT's equipment was sharply curtailed. Further price and market pressure reduced demand, and thus equipment sales, through 2016 to significantly lower levels than in the previous 5 years.
8. Provide sales forecasts for all models you intend to manufacture for next 2 years a. Explain the basis for any significant increases or decreases in sales projections See attachment for sales forecast. While the market for oil and gas well stimulation and development equipment has recently experienced a recovery compared to prior years, there remains significant instability that will impact sales for the next few years. The price of oil, and market confidence in it, will continue to determine the direction of market stability.
9. State whether you manufacture any engines SSMT is not an engine manufacturer.
a. If you are an engine manufacturer, state whether you manufacture any engine installed in any of your equipment models
10. The TPEM program permits one allowance per parent company per power category. Completely describe the ownership chain of your company up to the final parent/entity and back down to all subsidiaries of the parent company. Include all third party and licensee manufacturing agreements. Only one allowance for the highest parent company in the organization is being sought. As of September 13, 2017, SSMT's parent company is Kirby Corporation (Kirby). Kirby is also the parent company of United Engines, UE Manufacturing, and Marine Systems. Kirby is the highest parent company in the organization. SSMT will be the only entity which uses any hardship relief granted, as this request seeks only to allow the completion of existing orders that cannot be re engineered for completion within the required timeframe to use the engine family in this power category already produced by other Kirby affiliates in calendar year 2017.

TPEM Hardship Relief Application
a. Any relief will be granted to the parent of any and all subsidiaries. Please outline in complete, concise detail the corporate structure of the parent and include any and all subsidiaries or partial ownership in other equipment manufacturer companies by the parent company. Kirby Corporation is the highest level parent company for the organization. United Holdings, Kirby Engine Systems, and Stewart & Stevenson are all equal level subsidiary entities under the Kirby Corporation parent. Each of these has subsidiaries of its own, which participate in the TPEM. United Holdings is the parent for United Engines and UE Manufacturing. Kirby Engine Systems is the parent company of Marine Systems and Engine Systems. Stewart & Stevenson's subsidiary is Stewart and Stevenson Manufacturing Technologies. United Engines, UE Manufacturing, Marine Systems, SSMT, and Stewart & Stevenson Power Products are the only entities that participate in TPEM.
b. Is this hardship due to or caused by a recent merger or acquisition of another company? List all mergers and acquisitions of any equipment manufacturing business entered into by the parent or any subsidiary in the last five years. No, this hardship request is not based on an acquisition. Stewart & Stevenson was acquired by Kirby Corporation on September 13, 2017. Had the acquisition occurred prior to the near end of the TPEM, SSMT would have sufficient time to work with its customer to re engineer the units for use with compliant engines. However, because there are only two months remaining in the entire TPEM period for the >560kW power category, SSMT cannot re engineer its equipment design to use the engine family that has been used by the other Kirby subsidiaries. Nor can the equipment be re engineered in a timely manner to use Tier 4 engines. Tier 4 engines will not physically fit in the unit even if such engines could be obtained. Further, Tier 4 engines are not readily available from the manufacturer. Moreover, the Tier 2 engine Kirby's other subsidiary uses is not an appropriate choice for the operations in which the units are intended to be used. Thus, a complete re engineering of the equipment would need to be completed, which would take up to a year. This would be far outside of the delivery timeframe required for the equipment, which would cause Stewart & Stevenson to forfeit on its obligations to its customer and the customer to cancel the contract.
c. State if you are the Parent, a Subsidiary, Licensee, Agent or Importer operating under the authority of the parent. Attach and submit full documentation of your status. Stewart & Stevenson LLC is a subsidiary of Kirby Corporation. Stewart & Stevenson LLC is the parent company of Stewart Stevenson Manufacturing Technologies LLC.
Section A2. "TPEM Participation 1. Provide the date on which your company entered or will enter the TPEM program using exempted

H. Include a list of all engines by EPA Engine Family name and manufacturer that you have installed in every model produced by the parent during the past five years. See attachment
c. List planned Tier 4 Final compliant engines by 12-character EPA engine family name (e.g., DCEXL06.7XYZ) for installation in each model above or indicate if you intend to cease production of this particular equipment model. The well stimulation unit model which is designed for the Tier 2 MTU 12V4000 engine will be discontinued. The Tier 4 compliant model uses a completely different cooling package, control system, and frame/mounting structure and is considered a different model.

i. Are these planned Tier 4 Final engines currently certified and available? MTU has released the Tier 4 Final compliant version of the 12V4000 engine. However, engine availability is not expected until late first quarter 2018.
5. State on what date you expect to exhaust your current TPEM allowance. Your company must exhaust all TPEM allowances before using any additional allowances granted as hardship relief. You must request hardship relief before exceeding your TPEM allowance. Please plan for at least a 90 day review of any hardship application. The delivery date commitment for the first 20 units is November 22, 2017. The second fleet of 20 units requires engine installation prior to December 31, 2017 in order for the equipment to be compliant with Part 1039. December 31, 2017 is the last date on which SSMT, or any other Kirby Corporation subsidiary, will be able to use an allowance under TPEM in the >560kW power category. Kirby Corporation's parent company reporting is well below the maximum allowable usage of allowances for the >560kW power category, for which this hardship request is submitted. As of January 1, 2017 total allowances used for the >560kW power category by the Kirby parent company were 423 of 700. 57 additional units in this power category have been produced under the Kirby parent company in 2017.
6. Identify and state any exceedances of TPEM limits on the number of engines used in aggregate by the parent company and all of its subsidiaries and licensees for each year of the TPEM program. No exceedances have occurred. Kirby Corporation and all of its subsidiaries are in compliance with the limits of the TPEM program.
7. Identify and state any expected exceedancesof TPEM limits on the number of engines at conclusion of participation. This hardship request is submitted to prevent an exceedance in the >560kW power category using the multi-family option, since SSMT's pre existing design work and contractual commitment require use of a different single engine family than the single engine family Kirby's other subsidiaries had already used in 2017. Without hardship relief, the final contracts in SSMT's production for year 2017 will cause the compliance option for Kirby Corporation to change from single family small volume allowance to multi-family small volume allowance. Kirby's annual production in 2011 (199 engines) and the cumulative production for the life of the program (423 as of 1/1/2017) are such that use of the multi-family option causes an exceedance.
Section A3. Equipment Subject to Hardship Request 1. From Section 1, 4(g) fully describe by model the equipment above that is the subject of this hardship
application. a. Model identifier and description of each piece of equipment. The equipment model subject to this hardship request is the Tier 2 trailer mounted well stimulation unit.

b. Include by EPA Engine Family name every engine by any engine manufacturer installed into this equipment in the past five years. All units for this model were produced using the MTU 12V4000S83 Tier 2 engine, which has an EPA engine family name AMDDL95.4XTR.
c. List power ratings assigned to each model in the past five years. The power rating for the units include 2250hp and 2500hp.
d. List production volumes for each model for past five years. 2012 145 units 2013 21 units 2014 94 units 2015 12 units 2016 0 units were produced in 2016.
e. For each piece of equipment, list whether it is available with multiple engine options. For example, do you offer the equipment with an optional Kubota, Cummins, CAT, Deere, or other engine? No, this equipment is not available with multiple engine options, nor can it be designed to accommodate multiple engine options. The trailer mounted hydraulic fracturing equipment is limited to a specific engine, and if an engine change is required, major component changes must be made, as well as engineering specifications for the frame, cooling, and control systems.
2. Is this the identical equipment you were manufacturing during your prior TPEM participation? Yes
3. Are you requesting hardship relief for a model newly introduced into the market, a model that you intend to continue to produce using a Tier 4 compliant engine, or a model that will be phased out of production? The equipment subject to this hardship request will be discontinued at the close of the TPEM program. As previously described, the equipment in question cannot simply change to a Tier 4 engine without completely re engineering the equipment with a new design.
4. From Section 1, 7(a) provide the sales history for each equipment model for which you are requesting hardship relief for the past five years. a. State any anticipated increase in sales if hardship is granted. No increase in sales will occur if hardship is granted. Sales have already been completed for the remainder of the 2017 year and through to the expiration of the TPEM program.

TPEM Hardship Relief Application
Section A4. Basis of Hardship request 1. State in full, complete, concise detail your original 7 year plan under 40 CFR 1039 to become fully
compliant by the expiration date of your TPEM participation. Any planning prior to this request could not have anticipated this particular scenario. SSMT planned to work with customers and engine manufacturers throughout the TPEM period such that the necessary design and equipment availability issues would be addressed before the expiration of TPEM allowances.
a. A major component of the request is establishing a timeline that can be easily understood. SSMT met with its customer in December 2016 to begin planning and engineering the equipment subject to this request. Engineering representatives of SSMT and its customer met and worked over the next 6 months to design the units. Final specifications for the units were completed May 26, 2017. A commitment to produce 20 units was reached via contract June 5, 2017 followed by a contractual commitment at the request of the customer for an additional 20 units on September 11, 2017.
b. On a model-by-model basis, supply two single-line GANNT Charts to provide a visual timeline i. Top line to show original planned participation in TPEM which will usually encompass a nine year timeline including activities leading up to production ii. Bottom line to show actual production schedule with readily-identifiable delays (i.e., circumstances clearly outside your control) inserted showing the "pushing out" of production schedule.
These items are unrelated to SSMT's request in that there is no delay in parts availability for the units subject to this request.
c. The request needs to show that absent one or more unanticipated circumstances that were clearly beyond your control, prudent business practices would have resulted in meeting the regulatory requirement. The request is based on the fact that at the time SSMT initiated work with its customer (9 months prior to acquisition), the potential for sudden unavailability to SSMT of TPEM allowances using the Tier 2 engine model required by the design and engineering specifications for the units could not be conceived. Even once a potential change in parent company became a possibility after the design work began, SSMT remained a unique and separate entity obligated to adhere to its own compliance limitations under TPEM. Further, as a potential new parent company, it would have been unlawful for Kirby Corporation to attempt to interfere in the operation of or financial status of a company it seeks to purchase. As such, a Non-Disclosure Agreement was in place between Kirby Corporation and Stewart & Stevenson that prohibited the use of any information obtained through due diligence to be used by Kirby to influence or take advantage of Stewart & Stevenson or any of its subsidiaries. Each party was unique and separate up to the closing of the acquisition, and thus Kirby could not control the potential for a conflict to occur in the TPEM allowance usage of its pending subsidiary, nor could SSMT have known what limitations Kirby's TPEM participation might present to existing production.

2. State when and how you became aware of any issues affecting your efforts to achieve compliance. Attach and submit full documentation. SSMT was not aware of potential conflicts in compliance until September 14, 2017.
3. State the Extreme and Unusual Circumstances you are experiencing that prevent you from bringing the equipment listed in Section 3,1 into compliance. SSMT has committed to its customer to produce 40 hydraulic fracturing units by year's end 2017. Timing for the contract and for the TPEM program expiration do not allow for re engineering the units to use Tier 4 engines, as these equipment require nearly 2,000 man-hours of engineering time to develop. The flex engines which are currently compliant with the parent company reporting are not appropriate for the geography in which the customer will use the equipment.
4. The request should thoroughly document when delays occurred, why they occurred, how the issue was resolved, and the current state of events. a. For each delay include full contact information at source of delay for verification. This request is unrelated to component or engine delivery delay.
5. State how these circumstances are completely outside your control. (Note: mergers and acquisitions are not outside the control of the company) As described above, SSMT could not have known that TPEM allowance conflicts would occur when it committed to produce equipment for its customer. Further, as still unique and separate companies, Stewart & Stevenson was under no obligation to first confirm that such conflicts would not occur prior to the closing of the acquisition. To reiterate, Kirby could not lawfully influence Stewart & Stevenson's pursuit of business prior to the acquisition. This hardship request does not seek to obtain flexibility for future sales or for allowance usage after the program expires. Instead, SSMT seeks only to confirm that it may proceed with manufacturing equipment it was already under contract to produce prior to the acquisition by Kirby Corporation.
6. Compare the design processes of the equipment model for which you need additional exemptions and that for other models for which you do not need additional exemptions. Explain the technical differences that justify your request. Design processes across all equipment are the same. Differences in design processes are not a basis for this request.
7. State all steps taken to minimize the scope of your request a. When exactly did your company learn about the additional delay for Tier 4 prototypes? If this is the basis for your request, please document well
The scope of this request is limited by time remaining under the TPEM program. SSMT cannot produce equipment from any additional sales prior to the expiration of the program due to production capability.

8. Provide the following information about prototype engines for each equipment model: a. List when the compliant prototype engine was ordered b. Dates of promised delivery of compliant prototype c. When the prototype engine was received d. When the prototype equipment was built
Prototype engines are not a relevant element of this hardship request.
9. Provide the following information about compliant production engine for each equipment model a. State if compliant engine is certified, in production, and available There is not a Tier 4 version of the same engine that is readily available. MTU 12V4000 T95 is the Tier 4 compliant version, and the earliest potential delivery is first quarter 2018.
b. Dates of promised delivery of compliant production engines MTU has indicated that Tier 4 engines will not be available until first quarter 2018.
c. Dates of actual delivery of compliant production engines Not yet known.
d. Estimated start of production for the compliant Tier 4 equipment The compliant Tier 4 engine has only been produced in extremely limited numbers (estimated less than 5 produced). Routine availability is not expected until first quarter 2018.
e. Number of TPEM allowances (specified in units, not percentage) requested for the specific piece of equipment SSMT requests up to 40 TPEM allowances using Tier 2 MTU 12V4000 engines.
Section A5. Alternative Compliant Engine
1. State all alternative engine suppliers you have considered: a. Please provide the names of the alternative engine manufacturers contacted and the dates they were contacted Alternative engines are not an option, because the unit has to be completely redesigned to use a different engine. A Tier 4 12V4000 engine is not available, and when it does become available, it will not physically fit into the unit. The existing engine used by Kirby Corporation's other subsidiaries in 2017 for the single family option, CAT 3512C, will not only not fit without significantly re engineering components and frame design, its performance characteristics are not suited to the completion operations where these units are intended to be used. The equipment is not flexible in design to accept multiple engine models.

b. List all alternative engines considered by EPA Engine Family name No alternative engines are available for this equipment model. As previously described, the units were carefully designed over a 6 month period with the customer. The equipment model is limited to a specific engine, and any change in engine requires such a significant change in mounting design, component coupling, cooling system package, and control system that equipment using a different engine would be designed as a completely separate equipment model.
c. Describe the reason why any engines were not selected for development and explain fully why these certified engines are not compatible and cannot be used. SSMT designed its equipment for the orders using the Tier 2 MTU 12V4000 engine as part of its then legally available TPEM allowance. Because Stewart & Stevenson has used the single family small volume option, it does not have the flexibility to consider any other Tier 2 engine that might have been available that would not create a conflict, even though it had no way of knowing what those engines might be. Further, a Tier 4 engine does not fit into this equipment model, is not available, and is not a consideration as an alternative. From the customer's perspective, they have purchased 119 of these units using the Tier 2 MTU 12V4000 engine. The maintenance, parts replacement, mechanic and operations personnel training, and other considerations are all uniform across the customer's entire operation. Units powered by different engines are not technically feasible in that they would double the support infrastructure needed to operate and maintain the equipment. i. Customer preference may not be considered in a hardship application ii. Fully explain any engineering difficulties in incorporating any alternative engine ii. Submit full documentation of any timeline impacts for incorporating alternative engines
d. Please provide written documentation of this consideration, such as a copy of an email or letter from each engine manufacturer.
2. Are the engines you normally incorporate uniquely designed and manufactured for your equipment (e.g., unique bell-housing, PTO, etc.) or are these mass production engines? The engines themselves are mass produced. The equipment the engines are installed into, however are uniquely designed to accept only a specific engine make and model.
Section A6. Efforts to Minimize the Relief Needed 1. Provide the number of new employees hired to overcome the unanticipated impacts and used to minimize your need for relief. Explain the role of these employees (i.e., engineers, drafters, etc.) No employees were hired, as their hiring would not minimize or impact the contracts such that Tier 4 engines could be used instead of Tier 2.
2. Number of technical staff such as engineers and drafters you employ and number of technical staff assigned to the equipment models that are the subject of this request. SSMT employs 8 people within its engineering groups. The Stewart & Stevenson parent company employs 13 people total, including the 8 people within the manufacturing group.

3. List all equipment models you've transitioned to using compliant engines from an alternative engine supplier. SSMT is transitioning to equipment models that provide the same function, but that are designed to accept Tier 4 compliant engines. The difference between Tier 4 compliant models and the models produced under TPEM include layout and physical dimensions, cooling packages, control modules, and the coupling between the engine and the pump.
4. List all equipment models you currently manufacture with compliant engines. a. Supply date compliance achieved. b. Supply EPA Engine Family name for each compliant model. c. Have you continued to produce this equipment with exempted engines after the date Tier 4 engines could be introduced into the product?
SSMT builds rail car movers, stimulation blenders, stimulation hydration units, acid pumpers, stimulation data vans, stimulation chemical additive units, and nitrogen pump and vaporizing units using compliant engines. Rail car movers are still offered with exempted engines, but each of the other equipment identified above is available only with a compliant engine in the US market. See attachment for engine family names.
Section A7. Scope of Har
t
1. Hardship relief is granted on a model-specific basis. Submit your request in that fashion.
This request is limited to the 40 well stimulation units. These units represent a single equipment
model, which was specifically designed for the individual customer's requirements.
2. The scope of the request - please explain in detail how you arrived at the number (engine quantity) of your request. SSMT's requested scope is established in a contract with its customer.
3. List by EPA Engine Family name identifier the engines this hardship request will authorize a. State what Tier and by EPA Engine Family name identifier the hardship engines you will incorporate The engines are Tier 2 MTU 12V4000 engines. The EPA engine family name is AMDDL95.4XTR.
4. State your request for additional allowances in terms of the minimum volume necessary to span the period of hardship. SSMT requires up to 40 Tier 2 MTU 12V4000S83 engines to complete its contract obligations with its customer.

5. Do not include in your request any expected increase in sales, hardship will not be approved to increase any market share or sales increase. This request is not reflective of a speculative sales effort or increase in market share. SSMT seeks only to fill existing customer contracts which were already signed and in place at the time the conflict in single engine family allowances became an issue.
Section A8. Effect of Approval or Denial of Hardship 1. Please explain the business measures your company would employ if your application were to be denied
(e.g., idle production line, deploy unique financial measures, lay off employees, etc.). SSMT would suffer a loss of $43 million in revenue and an almost certain loss of an existing customer. Given that the equipment being requested encompasses an entire operational fleet, SSMT would also suffer the additional lost revenue from maintaining and servicing the equipment. The orders represent SSMT's intended work for 220 employees, some of whom will likely have to be laid off if the work is suddenly unavailable.
2. Please explain the potential for your company to reduce the impact of a denial by exporting products or otherwise maintaining production of other products. The equipment being produced cannot be sold for export, since it was designed specifically for an application unique to the customer's well stimulation requirements.
Section A9. Other Relevant Information
1. Include any other information which may be relevant to your application.
It is important to consider that the engines had already been purchased from the manufacturer and were in inventory at the time the TPEM allowance conflict was created and discovered by SSMT. The engines and equipment do not reflect new or potential sales or increased manufacturing opportunity. Further, EPA's recent guidance approving the relabeling of excess flex engines to replacement engines means that these engines, if not installed into the equipment, will be relabeled and introduced into commerce as replacement engines under 1068.240. As a result, although the engines have not yet been introduced into commerce, they will be introduced even if the request for hardship is denied. Denial of this request for hardship will not improve air quality, nor will it curtail the number of Tier 2 engines in use. However, if the application is accepted, there is a potential small benefit to the airshed in that these engines will be installed in brand new equipment instead of replacing engines in older equipment. Although the engines have the same emission limit, the newer, more efficient components will place a comparatively reduced load on the engine to accomplish the same work. Actual emissions from the engine due to increased efficiency of the equipment are expected to be lower for new equipment than for older equipment.

After reading 40 CFR Parts 1039.630 and 1068.255, please provide concise and clear answers to the following questions. Some regulatory requirements have already been addressed in the Technical Section (Section A of this document), and are therefore not repeated in this section. However, some questions are similar to those in Section A. Please note that in Section A, we seek answers from a technical perspective, if one exists. In this Section B, we seek answers based on your company's financial situation.
Section Bl. Overview & Unusual circumstances
1. Briefly describe why your company needs economic hardship relief and the unusual circumstances that brought about your company's impending hardship. In other words, explain what's going on and why. Please submit any documentation you deem relevant to prove your situation, in addition to the documentation listed below. a. State whether there was any breach of contract by a supplier. b. The amount of time you had to redesign your equipment to accommodate complying products. c. Whether industry trends are affecting your sales.
2. Explain your company's role, if any, in creating the impending hardship. To receive hardship relief, your company must not be at fault for the impending violation/hardship.
3. Describe your efforts, if you haven't elsewhere in this application, to find and assess complying engines from other manufacturers that could be used in your equipment.
4. Explain any other efforts you have undertaken to prevent or minimize the economic impact of the situation you are facing.
5. Describe the scope of the relief you are seeking: a. The number of additional exemptions (flex engines/pieces of equipment). b. The amount of time you need relief for.
6. Briefly explain the consequences of not getting hardship relief and state how you determined the extent of those consequences (e.g., financial forecasts, industry studies, etc): a. For your company (e.g., cease of operations, bankruptcy or serious economic impact, furloughs, layoffs, etc). b. For the marketplace/customers (e.g., loss of a unique product, marketplace not able to meet demand, etc.) c. Companies that do business with you upstream or downstream (e.g., suppliers, dealers)
7. If approved, economic hardship relief is available for only 12 months or 24 months for small volume manufacturers. Will your company be able to avoid hardship after that period? What will happen after the 12 months are over?
