the state board detailing the percentage of new models certified for
sale, sold, or offered for sale in California with CFC-alternative
mobile air-conditioning systems not using the CFC-based products

vehicle models with vehicle air-conditioners certified for sale,
sold, or offered for sale in California each year.
(b) Each of the deadlines set forth in Section 44472 may be

that manufacturers of new motor vehicles require additional time to
redesign vehicle air-conditioning systems.
