## Summary

The diesel-fueld forklift described below (comprising of a nonroad, compression-ignition engine) was found to be imported by International Manufacturing Solutions, Inc, in violation of Sections 203(a)(1) and 213(d) of the clean air act, which prohibits the importation of engines or equipment containing these engines unless they are covered by a valid EPA certificate of conformity or are properly exempted or excluded. Since an EPA certificate of conformity has not been awarded to International Manufacturing Solutions for the diesel-fueled engine, it is considered uncertified. In addition, the EPA has found no evidence that the engine is exempt or excluded from coverage, hence the diesel-fueled forklift cannot legally be imported into the United States.
