(4) Incremental cost means the cost of a qualifying repower or retrofit less a baseline cost that would otherwise be incurred in the normal course of business.

(7) Nonroad Oregon diesel engine means any Oregon diesel engine that was not designed primarily to propel a motor vehicle on public highways of this state.
