Vehicle categories ◦ Light-duty gas/diesel ◦ Medium duty gas/diesel ◦ Heavy-duty gas OBD Focused testing for 2000 and newer gasoline, 1998 and newer diesel Tailpipe testing for 1976-1999 gasoline 2

Smoke Opacity Inspection for PM gross emitters ◦ Snap Idle test procedure ◦ Roadside Inspections ◦ Periodic Self Inspection Historically, NOx emission benefits from finding/fixing broken trucks have been hard to obtain M17 (2003) ◦ ARB studied potential I/M procedure using repair grade dyno. No clear way to identify which vehicles would benefit from repairs. 4

Fueling System Particulate Matter Control ◦ PM Filter (DPF) ◦ PM Sensor / Pressure Sensors NOx Reduction ◦ NOx catalyst ◦ SCR system ◦ NOx sensors NMHC Catalyst EGR Charge Air control ◦ Boost/cooling HD OBD Equipped (2013+) 8 Malfunctioning emission controls will result in emissions degrading towards uncontrolled levels
9
Needs to address HD OBD equipped vehicles, and pre-HD OBD vehicles OBD Equipped Vehicles ◦ 2013+ MY ◦ OBD based Inspection most likely ◦ Remote OBD Optional / Required? Research Study to investigate testing methods for high emitters ◦ Literature review (paper study) ◦ Dynamometer, RSD, OBD data collection Pilot driven by paper study ◦ Pre/post repair emission assessments ◦ Benefits and cost effectiveness assessment. ◦ Targeted Pollutants: PM, NOx, GHG, CO, HC 9
10
Centralized / Decentralized Testing Interval (e.g., yearly, biennial) Technician Training/Licensing Test Equipment Development Out of state trucks Can Remote Sensing Play a Role? Costs and Emission Benefits HD OBD System Effectiveness Verification ◦ Monitoring performance ◦ Quality of datalink information 10

Cross-divisional team within ARB is working through issues Anticipating research program start Starting from a clean sheet of paper, but also paying attention to lessons learned from light-duty program. Possible Formation of External Work Group ◦ U.S. EPA ◦ Engine/Vehicle Manufacturers ◦ HD Engine Repair Industry ◦ Trucking Associations ◦ Other states (e.g., NESCAUM) Timing: ARB staff is planning to propose I/M program design to Board within the next 5 years. 11
