§ 91.206 Trading.

(a) A marine SI engine manufacturer may exchange emission credits with other marine SI engine manufacturers in trading. These credits must be used in the same averaging set as generated.

(b) Credits for trading can be obtained from credits banked in the three previous model years or credits generated during the model year of the trading transaction. Traded credits expire if they are not used in averaging within three model years following the model year in which they were generated.

(c) Traded credits can be used for averaging, banking, or further trading transactions.

(d) In the event of a negative credit balance resulting from a transaction, both the buyer and the seller are liable, except in cases involving fraud. Certificates of all engine families participating in a negative trade may be voided ab initio pursuant to § 91.123.
