This report begins with an overview of the background to heavy duty diesel vehicle (HDDV) inspection & maintenance (I/M) in the US and Canada, and the need for such inspection, with particular attention to the effects of diesel exhaust particulate matter and smoke. Section 2 reviews emissions from HDDVs, with projections to 2010, and the legislation governing such emissions. Sections 3 and 4 provide an overview of the differences between heavy- and light-duty I/M programs and the features of HDDV I/M programs. Section 5 describes HDDV I/M test procedures and the pass/fail criteria. Section 6 tabulates HDDV information on inspection & smoke testing programs in various Canadian & US jurisdictions. Section 7 describes measures used to ensure quality assurance & control in those programs. Section 8 examines the costs of HDDV I/M programs and their cost effectiveness. Section 9 reviews inspection & repair personnel training & certification. Section 10 discusses public information & awareness initiatives associated with HDDV inspection programs. The final section makes suggestions regarding implementation of I/M programs.

A motor vehicle emission inspection and maintenance (I/M) program is a system for the reduction of air pollution through mandatory testing of emissions and/or inspection of pollution control equipment to ensure that vehicles are properly maintained and have not been tampered with or misfuelled. The federal government has imposed stringent emission standards for both light and heavy duty motor vehicles at the point of manufacture in Canada or importation into Canada. A program for the testing and regulation of emissions from in-use motor vehicles is required to ensure full benefit from the public investment in emission control equipment on new vehicles. This report documents the findings of an I/M Implementation Task Force set up in May of 1989 to complete the preliminary design of a motor vehicle emission inspection and maintenance program for the Greater Vancouver Regional District (GVRD) and the areas in the Lower Mainland to the east of the GVRD.

The purpose of this code is to provide guidance to provincial transportation and environmental regulatory agencies regarding light-duty vehicle inspection and maintenance programs as a means of reducing excess exhaust and evaporative emissions of volatile organic compounds, nitrogen oxides, carbon monoxide, and particulate matter from in-use motor vehicles in large urban centres. The code is intended as a basis for implementing consistent and uniform control measures employing the latest technology for the testing of in-use motor vehicles across Canada. Training requirements are included in the code to help maintain efficient inspection station and repair shop operation as well as the health and safety of the motorists who participate in the programs. This document includes an outline of the legislative and policy considerations behind the code, the basic program parameters, and information on test procedures and equipment, quality control and assurance, repair technician and facility certification, and development of public awareness.
