                                  NOxMaster System

Pursuant to the authority vested in the Air Resources Board (ARB) by Part 5, Division
26 of the Health and Safety Code and Sections 38390, 38391 and 38395 of the Vehicle
Code; and

Pursuant to the authority vested in the undersigned by Sections 39515 and 39516 of the
Health and Safety Code and Executive Order G-45-9;

IT IS ORDERED AND RESOLVED: That installation of the NOxMaster System, Model
NXM-HD-2-0800, manufactured by KleenAir Systems, Inc. of 1370 South Acacia
Avenue, Fullerton, California 92831, has been found not to reduce the effectiveness of
the applicable engine pollution control system, and therefore, the NOxMaster System is
exempt from the prohibitions in sections 38390 and 38391 of the Vehicle Code for
installation on 1996-2001 model-year off-road CI-~mmins,Inc. 5.9 liter diesel engines.

The NOxMaster System consists of a pressurized ammonia storage tank, pressure
regulator, metering valve, ammonia diffuser, selective catalytic reduction catalyst,
oxidation catalyst, and an electronic controller. The system components exempted
under this Executive Order are identified in Attachment A.

This exemption is based on emission tests conducted by KleenAir Systems, Inc. on a
1994 model-year Cummins 85.9 diesel engine with the NOxMaster System. KleenAir
Systems, Inc. submitted the following data:




Data show that the engine modified with the NOxMaster System complies with the
applicable emission standards under the steady-state 8-mode and D2 constant speed
operations. Similar results are expected when the NOxMaster System is installed on
any of the off-road engines listed above.

This Executive Order is valid provided that installation instr~~ctions
                                                                    for the NOxMaster
System do not recommend tuning the engines to specifications different from those of
the engine manufacturer.


Changes made to the design or operating conditions of the NOxMaster System, as
exempted by the ARB, which adversely affect the performance of the engine's pollution
control system, shall invalidate this Executive Order.

Marketing of the NOxMaster System using identification other than that shown in .this
Executive Order or for an application other than that listed in this Executive Order shall
be prohibited unless prior approval is obtained from the ARB.

This Executive Order shall not apply to any NOxMaster System advertised, offered for
sale, sold with, or installed on an off-road engine or equipment prior to or concurrent
with transfer to an ultimate purchaser.

This Executive Order does not constitute any opinion as to the effect the use of the
NOxMaster System may have on any warranty either expressed or implied by the
engine manufacturer.

No claim of any kind, such as "Approved by the Air Resources Board," may be made
with respect to the action taken herein in any advertising or other oral or written
communication.

In addition to the foregoing, the ARB reserves the right in ,the future to review this
Executive Order and the exemption provided herein to assure that the exempted add-on
or modified part continues to meet the standards and procedures of California Code of
Regulations, Title 13, Section 2474, et seq.

THIS EXECU-I-IVE ORDER DOES NOT CONSTITUTE A CER'TIFICATION,
ACCREDITATION, APPROVAL, OR ANY OTHER TYPE OF ENDORSEMENT BY THE
AIR RESOURCES BOARD OF ANY CLAIMS OF THE APPLICANT CONCERNING
ANTI-POLLUTION BENEFITS OR ANY ALLEGED BENEFITS OF KLEENAIR
SYSTEMS, INC.'S NOXMASTER SYSTEM.

Violation of any of the above conditions shall be grounds for revocation of this Executive
Order. The Executive Order may be revoked only after a ten-day written notice of
intention to revoke the Executive Order, in which period the holder of the Executive
Order may request in writing a hearing to contest the proposed revocation. If a hearing

Order may not be revoked until a determination is made after a hearing that grounds for
revocation exist.
