Vessel operators that visit a berth or terminal in California shall meet the following requirements. Any failure to perform any specific items in this section shall constitute a separate violation for each calendar day that the failure occurs.
(a) Shore power requirements for at berth emission reductions. Vessel operators with shore power vessels shall plug in to shore power on each and every visit to a terminal where the port or terminal has commissioned the vessel's shore power equipment or the port or terminal has deemed the vessel to be compatible based on the vessel's previous commissioning to another berth.
(b) Requirements for vessel auxiliary engines. Vessel operators shall reduce auxiliary engine emissions to the performance standards set forth in section 93130.5(d)(1) of this Control Measure through use of a CAECS during each visit to a terminal by the date specified for each vessel type in this section and listed in Table 1, unless the visit qualifies for an exception identified in sections 93130.4, 93130.8, or 93130.10 of this Control Measure. A summary of responsibilities is provided in section 93130.18 of this Control Measure.

(c) Requirements for tanker auxiliary boilers on tanker vessels with steam driven product pumps. Vessel operators shall reduce boiler emissions to the performance standards set forth in section 93130.5(d)(2) of this Control Measure through use of a CAECS during each visit to a terminal by the date specified for each vessel type in this section and listed in Table 2, unless the visit qualifies for an exception identified in sections 93130.4, 93130.8, or 93130.10 of this Control Measure.

| January 1, 2027 | All remaining tanker vessels with steam driven product pumps |
(d) Visits by vessels with on-board control strategies. If the CAECS is operated solely on the vessel, vessel operators shall confirm in writing with the terminal operator that the equipment is operational and will be used, prior to the vessel's arrival at a California berth.
(e) Vessel compliance checklists. Vessel operators shall complete all items in the checklist to ensure compliance under the Control Measure:
(1) At least seven calendar days before arrival, the vessel operator shall communicate in writing with the terminal operator and operator of the CAECS to coordinate the use of a CAECS, and shall do all of the following:(A) Request use of a CAECS; and(B) Supply the terminal operator and the operator of the CAECS with information about the compatibility of the vessel with the intended CAECS.(2) Ensure the vessel is commissioned as required by the terminal operator or port, where applicable.(3) Use shore power or another CAECS during the vessel visit.(A) Begin controlling emissions with shore power or another CAECS within two hours after "Ready to Work."(B) Cease controlling emissions with shore power or another CAECS no sooner than one hour before "Pilot on Board."(4) Beginning on January 1, 2023, and thereafter, all vessel operators must report the following visit information to CARB electronically within 30 calendar days of each vessel's departure, using local time for all dates and times: (F) Vessel operator contact information, including name, address, email address, and telephone number;(G) Port, terminal, and berth visited;(H) Vessel arrival time and vessel departure time;(I) Vessel shift to another berth (must be reported as a separate visit), where applicable;(J) Type of CAECS used, where applicable;(K) Date and time when vessel declared as "Ready to Work";(L) Date and time when a CAECS begins reducing emissions and date and time when a CAECS stops reducing emissions, where applicable;(M) Type of fuel used in auxiliary engine(s) and auxiliary boiler(s);(N) Sulfur content of fuel used in auxiliary engine(s) and auxiliary boiler(s), where applicable;(O) Amount of fuel used in auxiliary engine(s) and boiler(s), during vessel visit, where applicable;(P) Date and time pilot on-board in preparation for departure;(Q) Information specified in the approved compliance strategy's Executive Order compliance instructions;(R) Information if a vessel uses an exception, including the type of exception, a detailed description, including dates and times, and any relevant correspondence (e.g. emails) documenting the visit exception;(S) Report if a request for the use of the remediation fund, including detailed description of the applicable circumstance specified in section 93130.15 of this Control Measure, the start and end times during which applicable specified circumstance took place, and the tier rating of the auxiliary engine;(T) Report if a vessel operator or terminal operator uses a TIE or VIE for the visit including the contact information of the responsible official who authorized the use of the TIE or VIE; and(U) Report if a CARB approved innovative concept is used to reduce emissions for the visit in compliance with this Control Measure, as required in the innovative concept's Executive Order.(f) Submissions. The vessel operator shall submit information to CARB according to section 93130.19 of this Control Measure.
(g) Records retention. Records made pursuant to section 93130.7 shall be kept for a minimum of five years. This information shall be sent to the Executive Officer within 10 calendar days of a request from CARB staff.
