OPINION AND ORDER OF THE BOARD (by M. McFawn):
The Board today adopts amendments to 35 Ill. Adm. Code 240, Enhanced Vehicle
Inspection and Maintenance (I/M) Regulations, also known as IM240. On January 21, 1998,
the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency (Agency) filed a proposal to amend the enhanced
I/M program. On January 22, 1998, the Board adopted the amendments for first notice
publication in the
Illinois Register
. See Enhanced Vehicle Inspection and Maintenance (I/M)
Regulations: Amendments to 35 Ill. Adm. Code 240 January 22, 1998, R98-24; see also 22
Ill. Reg. 2720 (February 6, 1998). On May 21, 1998, the Board adopted the amendments for
second notice review by the Joint Committee on Administrative Rules (JCAR). JCAR voted
“no objection” to the amendments as proposed at its June 16, 1998, meeting. Accordingly,
the Board adopts amendments to Part 240, as proposed at second notice.
Sections 182(b) and 182(c) of the federal Clean Air Act, as amended in 1990 (42
U.S.C. § 7582(b), § 7582(c) (1990)), require the use of I/M programs in areas that do not
meet the National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS) for ozone or carbon monoxide.
The Clean Air Act specifies the use of “basic” or “enhanced” I/M programs. “Basic”
programs are required in moderate and marginal ozone nonattainment areas with existing I/M
programs. “Enhanced” programs are mandated for serious, severe, and extreme ozone
nonattainment areas with urbanized populations of 200,000 or more. States are required to
submit for approval to the United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) revisions
to their State Implementation Plans (SIPs) which fully describe and assure implementation of a
satisfactory I/M program. In Illinois, the Chicago and Metro-East St. Louis (Metro-East)
areas are classified as “severe” and “moderate” nonattainment areas for ozone. Pursuant to
Section 5/13B-5 of Illinois’ Vehicle Emissions Inspection Law (625 ILCS 5/13B-5 (1996)),
Chicago and Metro-East St. Louis are subject to these I/M regulations.
USEPA has promulgated both final regulations and interim guidelines containing
testing standards and procedures for use in a state’s enhanced I/M emissions testing program
(40 C.F.R. § 51). Illinois’ Vehicle Emissions Inspection Law provides the authority for the
Board to adopt the regulations necessary for Illinois to meet USEPA’s enhanced I/M testing
and performance requirements. The Board has previously adopted the bulk of the standards
necessary for implementation of the enhanced I/M program in docket R94-19 (see In the
2
Matter of: Enhanced Vehicle Inspection and Maintenance Regulations: Amendments to 35
Ill. Adm. Code 240 (December 1, 1994), R94-19; see also 18 Ill. Reg. 18228 (December 14,
1994)) and in docket R94-20 (see In the Matter of: Enhanced Vehicle Inspection and
Maintenance Regulations: Amendments to 354 Ill. Adm. Code 240 (December 1, 1994), R94-
20; see also 18 Ill. Reg. 18013 (December 12, 1994)). The amendments adopted today
represent the remainder of the mobile source emissions standards necessary for the
implementation of the enhanced I/M program and constitute an integral part of Illinois’
enhanced I/M package. Once adopted by the Board, they must be submitted by the Agency as
part of the Illinois SIP for final approval by the USEPA.
In sum, these rules contain clarifications and modifications to existing regulations, and
new standards for the remaining portions of the enhanced I/M testing program. More
specifically, these amendments:
(1)
replace the current evaporative system testing program (which uses a pressure
test and a purge test to test the entire system’s integrity) with a fuel cap only
inspection;
(2)
add “fast-pass” standards to allow vehicles undergoing IM240 exhaust emissions
tests to be tested more quickly, saving time and money;
(3)
add standards for the required on-road sensing test; and
(4)
add a program for on-board diagnostic testing that will become mandatory on
January 1, 2001.
The adoption by the Board of these amendments to Part 240: Mobile Sources is
authorized under Section 28.5 of the Environmental Protection Act (Act) (415 ILCS 5/28.5
(1996)) and mandated by Section 13B-20 of the Vehicle Emissions Inspection Law (625 ILCS
5/13B-20 (1996)). Today, the Board adopts these rules under the Illinois Administrative
Procedure Act (5 ILCS 100/5 (1996)). We have considered the merits of the Agency’s
proposal and its testimony and find that these regulations are required pursuant to the Vehicle
Emissions Inspection Law and adopted in accordance with Section 28.5(d) of the Act for the
reasons discussed below.
PROCEDURAL MATTERS
Section 13B-20 of the Vehicle Emissions Inspection Law (625 ILCS 5/13B-20 (1996))
mandates adoption of enhanced I/M rules by the identical-in-substance rulemaking procedure
under Section 7.2 of the Act (415 ILCS 5/7.2 (1996)). It further provides that the
amendments are not subject to the requirements of Section 27(b) of the Act (415 ILCS 5/27(b)
(1996)). However, most of the federal enhanced I/M scheme is not codified in federal
regulations, but exists only as federal guidance. Section 7.2 of the Act, which defines
“identical-in-substance” rulemaking and establishes conditions for its use, allows the Board
only to adopt federal rules using this mechanism, not federal guidelines. Since many of the
3
federal requisites underlying the rules are based upon federal guidance, we cannot proceed
under Sections 7.2 and 28.4 of the Act with this rulemaking.
The Board previously addressed this issue in docket R94-19 (see In the Matter of:
Enhanced Vehicle Inspection and Maintenance Regulations: Amendments to 35 Ill. Adm.
Code 240 December 1, 1994, R94-19; see also 18 Ill. Reg. 18228 (December 14, 1994))
which also amended the enhanced I/M program. In that rulemaking, major portions of the
federal enhanced I/M scheme were also not codified in federal regulations, but existed only as
federal guidance. At that time, the Agency suggested and the Board agreed to use the next-
fastest procedural mechanism, rulemaking under Section 28.5 of the Act (415 ILCS 5/28.5
(1996)), known as “ fast-track” rulemaking. Section 28.5 fast-track rulemaking is to be
applied to “promulgate a rule that the Clean Air Act requires to be adopted.” “Requires to be
adopted” is defined as referring “only to those regulations or part of regulations for which the
United States Environmental Protection Agency is empowered to impose sanctions against the
State for failure to adopt such rules.” 415 ILCS 5/28.5 (1996). Such was the case for that
rulemaking, and is the case in this rulemaking. Here again, most of the federal requisites
underlying these enhanced I/M amendments exist only as federal guidance, yet this program is
required by the Clean Air Act. Therefore, the Board once again finds that this rulemaking
implements the Clean Air Act and is acting to adopt it in accordance with the fast-track
requirements in Section 28.5 of the Act.
On March 17, 1998, the one hearing on the merits of the proposal was held in Chicago.
The second and third hearings originally scheduled for April 14, 1998, and April 28, 1998,
respectively, were canceled pursuant to Section 28.5(g) because the Board received no requests
that those hearings be held. At hearing, Elizabeth Tracy, manager of the Division of Vehicle
Inspection and Maintenance, Michael Hills, engineer in technical services with the Vehicle
Inspection Test Program, and James Matheny, engineer manager of technical services with the
Vehicle Inspection Test Program, testified on behalf of the Agency.
The Board received three filings in this proceeding. The Agency’s prehearing
comments were filed by Michael Hills on March 4, 1998. At hearing, the Agency presented
the Board with an errata sheet containing additional amendments to Part 240. On April 3,
1998, the Agency filed its post hearing public comment. No additional filings or public
comments were filed with the Board.
ANALYSIS
Subpart A: Definitions and General Provisions
Section 240.102: Definitions
Section 240.102 contains the definitions applicable in the I/M program. The
amendments are necessary to conform the definitions with the amendments adopted in the
remainder of Part 240. First, a fuel cap test replaces the two tests currently required under the
evaporative system testing program. Accordingly, the definitions of “pressure test” and
4
“purge test” are deleted, and the following new terms are defined: “evaporative system
integrity test;” “fuel cap;” “fuel cap leak flow test;” “fuel cap leak flow tester;” “fuel cap
pressure decay test;” “fuel cap pressure decay tester;” and “fuel cap visual function test.”
All
of these terms are applicable to the different fuel cap tests added at Subpart F: Evaporative
Test Standards. See
infra
at 8-9.
The definition for “high idle” is amended so that it is no longer applicable to the
preconditioning mode of a steady-state idle test. Also, the following three definitions are
entirely deleted. The reasons for their deletions are also discussed under the appropriate
sections referenced below.
(1)
“Tier I” because the exhaust emission standards defined therein are no longer
required, and all references to the Tier 1 standards are deleted from Part 240.
Those references were removed from Sections 240.162, 204.163, and Section
240.Tables A and B.
(2)
“Test procedure” to eliminate any confusion in interpretation. Section 240.141
(currently not being considered by the Board) contains references to “test
procedure” in both the heading and within the section itself. The section also
contains references to “standards.” The current definition of “test procedure”
creates confusion as to whether test procedures are different from standards.
(3)
“Two speed idle test” is deleted because that test is no longer utilized by the
Agency. The Agency’s procedures at Section 276.204 currently require only a
single-speed idle test. While the reference to two-speed idle test at Section
240.125 of the Board’s regulations should also be deleted, it cannot be because
this section was not published at first notice. See 5 ILCS 100/5-30(b), (c)
(1994).
The Board finds that the amendments are necessary to properly revise the I/M program.
Accordingly, these amendments are included in the attached order.
Section 240.104: Inspection
Section 240.104(a) contains the compliance requirements for motor vehicles which
must be inspected under the Vehicle Emissions Inspection Law. This section formerly was a
single paragraph which contained the compliance requirements for two sets of vehicles. The
first set of vehicles, those subject to inspection under Section 13A of the Vehicle Emissions
Inspection law (625 ILCS 5/13A-104 (1996)), must comply with the exhaust emission
standards found at Section 240.141. (Section 240.141 is not amended in this rulemaking.)
A new subsection (b) now contains the compliance requirements for the second set of
vehicles, those subject to inspection under Section 13B of the Vehicle Emissions Inspection
Law (625 ILCS 5/13B (1996)). Those vehicles are required to comply with the emission
standards found at Sections 240.152, 240.162, 240.163, and 240.172. The new subsection (b)
5
now also requires compliance with the new vehicle emission standards for remote sensing
diagnostic (RSD) standards and on-board diagnostic (OBD) testing, which are newly adopted
at Sections 240.182 and 240.192, respectively. Finally, the cross-reference to Section
240.173, which contains the purge test, is deleted.
Section 240.105: Penalties
Section 240.105 sets forth penalties for violations of Part 240. Section 240.105 is
amended to include additional penalties for exceedences of the RSD and OBD standards found
at new Sections 240.182 and 240.192, respectively, and penalties for not meeting the purge
test standards formerly contained in Section 240.173 are deleted.
Section 240.106: Determination of Violation
Section 240.106 specifies how violations of the various standards of Part 240 are to be
determined. For example, violation of the smoke emission standard at Section 240.103 must
be determined using visual observation or a qualified opacity measuring system. As with the
changes adopted at Sections 240.104 and 240.105, the cross-references to the newly adopted
RSD and OBD standards are added, and the cross-reference to the purge test is eliminated
since the purge test is no longer considered an element of the I/M program.
Section 240.107: Incorporation by Reference
Section 240.107 contains a list of documents incorporated by reference into Part 240.
Section 240.107(c) contains a reference to a USEPA formal guidance document entitled
“Report EPA AA EPSD IM 1, High Tech I/M Test Procedures, Emission Standards, Quality
Control Requirements, and Equipment Specifications”. This reference is deleted and replaced
with USEPA’s most recent formal guidance that was updated in June 1996. The title of the
more recent reference document is: “High-Tech I/M Test Procedures, Emission Standards,
Quality Control Requirements, and Equipment Specifications: IM240 and Functional
Evaporative System Tests, Revised Technical Guidance” (High-Tech Guidance).
This amendment updates the reference to the USEPA formal guidance document.
Subpart E: Transient Loaded Mode Test Emission Standards
Section 240.162: Vehicle Exhaust Emission Start-Up Standards and Section 240.163: Vehicle
Exhaust Emission Final Standards
Sections 240.162 and 240.163 make the vehicle exhaust emission standards applicable
to vehicles which are subject to inspection under Section 13B-15 of the Vehicle Emissions
Inspection Law. See Section 240.104. Pursuant to Section 240.162, the vehicle exhaust
emission start-up standards are applicable to all such vehicles by cross-referencing the
standards found in Table A of Part 240. Pursuant to Section 240.163, the vehicle exhaust
emission final standards are applicable to all vehicles by cross-referencing the standards found
at Table B of Part 240. These sections also provide the timeframes in which the standards are
6
to become applicable. These dates are changed and are deleted from both sections and both
tables.
Applicability Time Frames
Originally, the timeframes for the vehicle exhaust standards were phased: the start-up
standards did not become applicable until December 31, 1997 (Section 240.162), and the final
standards became applicable on January 1, 1998 (Section 240.163). As amended, the
applicability dates for the start-up and final standards are changed from a fixed date (both of
which have passed) to dates (unspecified) dependent upon when enhanced I/M testing actually
begins. The Agency’s test contractor may begin enhanced I/M testing on the first day of any
month between December 1998, and June 1999, depending upon certain conditions being met.
Therefore, the beginning date for enhanced I/M testing must be a floating date rather than a
fixed date. The start-up standards still be phased-in over a two year period before the final
standards become applicable. Since the ending date for the start-up standards cannot be fixed
until enhanced I/M testing begins, the initial date that the final standards replace the start-up
standards cannot yet be specified. Section 240.162 provides a description that these standards
will be applicable for two years after the enhanced I/M testing is begun. This means that,
pursuant to these amended sections, the start-up standards will become applicable on the first
day of a month between December 1998, and June 1999, and expire no later than June 2001.
The Board urges the Agency to inform it when this date can be established,
i.e.
, notify
the Board as to the date its test contractor begins enhanced I/M testing, so that Section 240.163
can be amended to include a fixed date. Such an amendment will simplify the rule for the
regulated community and those enforcing the regulations.
Elimination of Tier 1 Vehicle Emission Standards
Originally, Sections 240.162 and 240.163 reference the Tier 1 emission standards
found in Tables A and B. Tables A and B contain vehicle emission standards for three
pollutants: hydrocarbons, carbon monoxide, and oxides of nitrogen. The emission levels vary
depending upon the vehicle model years,
e.g.
, 1991-1995, 1983-1990. One model year is
designated “Tier 1(1994+).” Tier 1 is currently defined at Section 240.102 to mean:
the exhaust emission standards required by the Clean Air Act as amended in
1990 that require auto makers to reduce tailpipe emissions of hydrocarbons and
oxides of nitrogen by 35% and 60%, respectively, from existing standards,
beginning with 40% of the vehicles sold in 1994, 80% in 1995, and 100%
thereafter.
As mentioned in the discussion of Section 240.102, this definition is deleted. The Tier
1 standards are eliminated because the USEPA’s High Tech Guidance now recommends that
the vehicle emission standards apply only to all 1996 and newer “light duty vehicles,” “light
duty trucks 1,” and “light duty trucks 2”. Formerly, the guidance recommended Tier 1
standards apply to all model year 1996 and newer vehicles and model year 1994 and new
7
vehicles certified to Tier 1 standards. The elimination of “Tier 1” requirements for these
model year vehicles also serves to simplify testing operations because Tier 1 vehicles can only
be identified by inspecting/evaluating the vehicle emission labels located in the engine
compartment. Therefore, the hood of the vehicle must be opened which increases both test
time and the potential for vehicle damage.
Section 240.164: Vehicle Exhaust Emission Fast-Pass Standards
New “fast-pass” standards for the IM240 exhaust emission test are adopted. Table C
of Part 240 contains the new vehicle exhaust emission fast-pass standards, and according to a
new Section 240.164, these are the standards to be applied to vehicles that must be inspected
pursuant to Section 240.161 utilizing the IM240 transient loaded mode exhaust emission test
specified in the Agency’s rules at 35 Ill. Adm. Code 276. The IM240 transient loaded mode
exhaust test procedure, developed by USEPA, will be used to measure exhaust emissions of
hydrocarbons and carbon monoxide while the vehicle is operated on a chassis dynamometer.
The IM240 driving cycle consists of a series of accelerations, decelerations, and high-speed
cruise modes over a 240-second period which, due to the load or resistance provided by the
dynamometer, allows for measurement of emissions under simulated on-road driving
conditions. The fast-pass standard will allow vehicles to pass the IM240 test quickly by
enabling vehicles which exhibit clearly clean emission to pass the IM240 exhaust emission test
before the entire 240-second period has elapsed.
Adoption of the fast-pass standards will reduce testing time, and thereby allow for
testing volume to be increased, and result in a less expensive test network. Accordingly, the
Board deletes old Section 240.164 and adopts new Section 240.164 and Table C.
Section 240.165: Compliance Determination
Section 240.165(a) now contains the method for determining compliance with the
IM240 standards when the full driving cycle test is used,
i.e.,
Tables A and B. This regulation
is simply relocated from Section 240.164 which is necessary to accommodate the addition of
fast-pass standards at Section 240.164. The Board modifies subsection (a) slightly by adding a
title, “Vehicle Exhaust Emissions Start-Up and Final Standards.”
A new subsection (b) contains the compliance determination procedures for fast-pass
standards, and is based upon USEPA’s High-Tech Guidance. Compliance with fast-pass
IM240 standards is determined by measuring the vehicle’s cumulative emissions of each
pollutant in each second, and comparing them to separate cumulative fast-pass standards for
each pollutant for each second of the test.
Like the full-cycle IM240 standards, the newly adopted fast-pass standards establish
two methods in which a vehicle can pass: composite and Phase 2. In the case of fast-pass
standards, compliance determination with composite fast-pass standards begins at second 30
and is based upon emissions accumulated from the start of the IM240 test. Compliance
determination with Phase 2 fast-pass standards begins at second 109 and is based upon
8
emissions accumulated from second 94 of the IM240 test. If the vehicle does not meet all of
the fast-pass standards within 240 seconds, then the pass/fail determination for each exhaust
component will be based upon compliance with the composite or Phase 2 emission standards
for the full driving cycle located in 35 Ill. Adm. Code 240.162 and 240.163. Those are the
start-up and final vehicle exhaust emission standards discussed above.
Subpart F: Evaporative Test Standards
Section 240.171: Applicability
Subpart F contains the standards and regulations concerning evaporative testing.
Currently, Section 240.171 contains two rules about the applicability of the evaporative system
integrity test standards found in Subpart F. Subsection (b) contains the purge standards
currently located in Section 240.173. Purge testing has been eliminated as a mandatory
requirement of the enhanced I/M program because the test cannot currently be performed
reliably or economically in the high through-put, centralized test system to be built in Illinois.
See Section 10 of Pub. Act 90-475 (eff. August 17, 1997). Accordingly, Section 240.171(b)
is deleted, and the paragraph lettering for Section 240.171(a), is removed, but the text is left
in place.
Section 240.172: Evaporative Integrity Test Standards
Section 240.172 adds fuel cap and visual test standards for vehicles subject to the
evaporative system integrity test. The original evaporative system pressure tests are
eliminated. As adopted, Section 240.172 sets forth two different instruments used for testing a
fuel cap for leakage: a “leak flow” tester or a “pressure decay” tester. The fuel cap leak flow
test determines fuel cap integrity by using a leak flow tester that measures actual leakage flow
rate through the fuel cap and compares it to the flow through a designated master orifice. The
fuel cap pressure decay test determines fuel cap integrity by measuring the actual pressure
decay over a period of ten seconds while the fuel cap is pressurized. The third test is a visual
functional test standard. Fuel caps that are proper for the vehicle being tested, but do not fit
either the leak flow or pressure decay fuel cap tester (due to the lack of a proper adapter), will
now be tested using the visual functional test. The test involves a visual inspection of the fuel
cap for damage or missing parts.
The Board finds that the two different fuel cap tests and the visual test standards are
warranted to perform an evaporative system integrity test. Using either the leak flow, pressure
decay, or the visual function test will allow for flexibility to efficiently conduct the evaporative
system integrity test.
Section 240.173 Evaporative System Purge Test Standards
Section 240.173 contains the standards for the evaporative system purge test. The
purge test was included as part of the enhanced I/M testing program in 1994 because,
according to the Agency, the USEPA insisted it be in the program. See Enhanced Vehicle
9
Inspection and Maintenance Regulations Amendments to 35 Ill. Adm. Code 240 (December 1,
1994), R94-20, slip op. at 4. USEPA has subsequently determined that the problems involved
with trying to implement this test in a high through-put, centralized testing program cannot
presently be overcome. Furthermore, the Vehicle Emission Inspection Law has been amended
to eliminate the mandatory requirement for the purge test. See Pub. Act 90-475 (effective
August 17, 1997). Consequently, the purge test is no longer a mandatory part of the required
enhanced I/M test. The Board eliminates the purge test standards of the evaporative system
state’s enhanced I/M program set forth at Section 240.173 because of the subsequent
determination by USEPA and the Agency that the purge test could not be quickly, reliably, or
economically performed.
Subpart G: On-Road Remote Sensing Testing
To fulfill new requirements of the Vehicle Emission Inspection Law, the enhanced I/M
program, including on-road remote sensing testing, is added. See 625 ILCS 5/13B-20 (1996).
On-road remote sensing testing is also required by USEPA as a part of the enhanced I/M
program. See 57 Fed. Reg. 52950, 52967 (November 5, 1992); 40 § C.F.R. 51.371.
Emission standards for on-road remote sensing for hydrocarbons and carbon monoxide
are provided in new Section 240.182 and according to Section 240.181, these standards are
applicable to all vehicles that will receive on-road tests pursuant to 35 Ill. Adm. Code 276,
i.e.,
all 1968 and new “light duty vehicles,” “light duty trucks 1,” and “light duty trucks 2.”
Finally, according to new Section 240.183, compliance must be measured using test
procedures adopted by the Agency. In that section, the procedures for notifying the vehicle
owner that the vehicle failed the on-road test is also included. Pursuant to Section 13B-20 of
the Vehicle Emission Inspection Law, the vehicle owner is not obligated to do anything until
the vehicle has failed the on-road emission sensing testing for a second time. This limitation is
legislatively mandated to avoid a determination of non-compliance based upon false failures of
the on-road test.
As noted, Section 240.183 provides that compliance is determined based upon
procedures adopted by the Agency. In response to a Board question at hearing regarding the
adoption of on-road diagnostic procedures, the Agency stated that it has not yet drafted those
procedures. The Agency explained that it intends to adopt procedures at Part 276 within three
to six months after hearing that will ensure the following: locating the remote sensing
diagnostic devices to minimize false passes; a representative cross-section of vehicles in the
area; and safety of the operator’s equipment. The Board requests that the Agency notify the
Board when its procedures are adopted under the Administrative Procedures Act. The Board
will then determine the best way to communicate this information to the regulated public either
by amending this rule to include a specific citation or through other means.
Section 240.183 also includes the procedures the Agency must use to notify the
vehicle’s owner that the vehicle failed the on-road remote sensing emission testing. In no case
may such a notice be sent to vehicles registered outside the affected counties. The affected
counties are listed at Section 13B-5 of the Vehicle Emissions Inspection Law.
10
There is a two step notice procedure when a vehicle fails the on-road emission sensing
test. The first time the vehicle fails the test, the notice must notify the vehicle owner of the
time and location where the on-road remote sensing emission test was taken, and the emission
readings and emission standards exceeded. Although the vehicle’s emissions exceeded the
standards set out in Section 240.182, there is no violation until the vehicle fails the test for a
second time. Again, this is to help prevent non-compliance based upon a false failure of the
vehicles.
The second time the vehicle fails the on-road remote sensing emission test, and that
second exeedence occurs prior to the next scheduled in-cycle emissions test, the Agency must
notify the vehicle owner of the second failure. In so doing, the Agency must include the same
information required in the first notice. However, in this second instance, the Agency must
also notify the vehicle owner of the obligation to take the vehicle for inspection at a local
inspection station.
The Board finds that the rules for the on-road remote sensing emission testing meet the
requirements of the Vehicle Emission Inspection Law. In addition to fulfilling statutory
requirements, the Board hopes the on-road remote sensing emission testing will be an effective
tool for evaluating the effectiveness of enhanced I/M on the in-use performance of vehicles as
well as an effective means for identifying vehicles that, between in-cycle I/M inspections, have
an increase in exhaust emissions.
Subpart H: On-Board Diagnostic Test Standards
Rules for the on-board diagnostic (OBD) program are also adopted. The OBD system
is used on vehicles, in part, as an emission control diagnostic system that is capable of
identifying deterioration or malfunction in certain vehicle components which could cause
increase in emissions that exceed the emission standards. If the OBD system detects any
deterioration or malfunction, a fault code is recorded in the system for later retrieval and the
malfunction indicator light (MIL) is illuminated on the dashboard. The OBD test is conducted
by connecting the in-lane computer test system to the vehicle’s OBD system. The test system
then sends a request to determine the readiness of the vehicle’s OBD system. The test system
then downloads the MIL status and trouble code information to the vehicle test record.
Pass/fail determination is made by comparing the MIL status and trouble code information to
the OBD test standards adopted at Section 240.192.
The regulations proposed by the Agency parallel in part those required under the
enhanced I/M program under federal law pursuant to the Clean Air Act, as amended (42
U.S.C. § 7582(b), § 7582(c) (1990)) and state law pursuant to Vehicle Emission Inspection
Law (625 ILCS 5/13B-20(1996)). When the Agency filed its proposal, federal law required
that states adopt a two step OBD program. First, USEPA required OBD testing in all I/M
programs beginning January 1, 1998. 61 Fed. Reg. 40939, 40946 (August 6, 1996); see 40
C.F.R. § 51.373. Second, USEPA required that the enhanced I/M program begin to “pass”
or “fail” vehicles based upon compliance with the OBD standards by January 1, 2000. 61
11
Fed. Reg. 409939, 40946 (August 6, 1996); see 40 C.F.R. 51.357(b)(4), 85.222. Since
hearing, USEPA adopted a final rule delaying the implementation of the OBD testing standards
until January 1, 200l, which now provides only that on-board diagnostic checks shall be
implemented by January 1, 2001. 63 Fed. Reg. 24429, 24433 (May 4, 1998). The Board
takes official notice of this federal action.
Three rules are adopted. First, Section 240.191: Applicability sets forth that the on-
board diagnostic test is advisory only and therefore a vehicle which fails the test does not fail
the vehicle emission test. It also provides that the advisory OBD test is to be performed on all
1996 and new “light duty vehicles,” “light duty trucks 1,” and “light duty trucks 2,” required
to meet the standards for OBD equipment contained in relevant federal rules (see 40 C.F.R. §
86.094-17). Finally, this section provides that such vehicle must be inspected using OBD
testing procedures found at 35 Ill. Adm. Code 276. As of the date of hearing, the Agency had
not yet adopted such rules. However, the Board notes that there is sufficient time after final
adoption of this rule and its applicability for the Agency to develop such procedures.
Section 240.192 contains the on-board diagnostic test standards. The standards are
those required by federal regulations for OBD test standards. They are taken from the
“Inspection/Maintenance Program Requirement – On-Board Diagnostic Checks,” Final Rule,
found at 63 Fed Reg. 24429 (May 4, 1998). The pass/fail determination will be made by
comparing the MIL status and trouble code information to the adopted OBD test standards set
forth in Section 240.192.
Also in Section 240.192, the Board deletes the phrase “as defined by SAE J2012” as
the reference is both confusing and redundant. On August 6, 1996, USEPA adopted final
rules implementing on-board diagnostic test standards. 61 Fed. Reg. 40940, 40946 (August 6,
1996). In doing so, USEPA identified under what circumstances a vehicle shall fail the on-
board diagnostics test. USEPA adopted its procedures from a list contained within the Society
of Automotive Engineers’, SAE J2012 Diagnostic Trouble Code Definitions. As Section
240.192 explicitly sets forth the 43 OBD codes under which OBD failure shall be determined,
the specific reference to SAE J2012 is unnecessary.
Finally, new Section 240.193 sets forth compliance determination for OBD testing
standards. Compliance will be determined through inspection of the on-board diagnostic
connector, the malfunction indicator light and comparing the fault codes down loaded from the
on-board diagnostic system with the standards contained in Section 240.192. This inspection
must be conducted using the procedures that will be adopted by the Agency at 35 Ill. Adm.
Code 276. The procedures will be the same regulations promulgated by the USEPA.
The Board finds that these regulations providing for an on-board diagnostic testing
program is warranted. Although the State is not currently required to have in place an on-
board diagnostic program as part of its enhanced I/M program, such a program is federally
mandated by January 1, 2001, and the State is required to submit by August 6, 1998, a SIP
amendment which commits the State to this program. Because USEPA has now adopted a
final rule delaying implementation of the mandatory pass/fail OBD testing until January 1,
12
2001, the Board includes January 1, 2001, as the day OBD programs adopted in Subpart H
become mandatory. The OBD program adopted at Subpart H will satisfy USEPA’s SIP
requirement.
The Agency requested that the Board adopt the testing program on an advisory basis.
1
The Board declines to do so. This testing program is no longer required under the Clean Air
Act and therefore, the Board finds that it does not have the authority to adopt such a program
in this rulemaking. See
supra
at 3, the Board can only promulgate a rule under Section 28.5
fast-track rulemaking if the Clean Air Act requires such a rule. See 415 ILCS 28.5(c) (1996).
All “non-required” rules may be considered in a second docket which proceeds under the
Board’s routine rulemaking authority. See 415 ILCS 5/28.5(j) (1996). Should the Agency still
desire such an interim program, it must file such a rulemaking proposal under Title VII of the
Act.
Section 240.Tables A and B
Section 240.Table A, Vehicle Exhaust Emission Start-Up Standards, and Table B,
Vehicle Exhaust Emission Final Standards, sets forth emissions standards for light duty
vehicles, light duty trucks 1, and light duty trucks 2. The Agency proposed eliminating the
reference to “Tier 1” in this table as “Tier 1” vehicles requires evaluation of vehicle emission
labels located in the engine compartment. Access to this information requires opening the
hood, which increases both test time and the potential for vehicle damage. Therefore,
eliminating the “Tier 1” requirements for these model year vehicles will simplify testing
procedures. See
supra
at 6-7.
Section 240.Table C
A new table is added: Section 240.Table C, entitled Vehicle Exhaust Emission Fast-
Pass Standards. These standards are based upon USEPA guidance and allow vehicles to more
quickly pass the IM240 test. The fast-pass standards allow higher throughputs to be achieved,
reducing time for the motorists and resulting in a less expensive test network for the State.
This new Section 240.Table C is necessary to provide vehicle exhaust emission standards for
the fast-pass testing procedure. See
supra
at 7.
CONCLUSION
The Board today adopts amendments to 35 Ill. Adm. Code 240.
ORDER
1
The Agency’s request for testing only stemmed from USEPA’s original adoption of OBD
testing standards. See 61 Fed. Reg. 40940 (August 6, 1996). In that original rule, USEPA
required OBD testing in all I/M programs beginning January 1, 1998, but it did not require
that mandatory pass/fail commence until January 1, 2000. See 40 C.F.R. § 51.373, §
85.2207.

Section 240. 165
Compliance Determination
a)
Vehicle Exhaust Emission Start-Up and Final Standards - Compliance shall be
determined based upon the measurement of exhaust emissions while operating
the vehicle on a dynamometer and following the driving cycle as specified for
the transient IM240 test procedures adopted by the Agency. If the corrected,
composite emission rates exceed standards for any pollutant, additional analysis
of test results shall review the second phase ("Phase 2") of the driving cycle
separately. Phase 2 shall include second 94 through second 239 of the driving
cycle. Second-by-second emission rates in grams and composite emission rates
in grams per mile for Phase 2 and for the entire composite test shall be recorded
for each pollutant. For any given pollutant, if the composite emission level is at
or below the composite standard or if the Phase 2 grams per mile emission level
is at or below the applicable Phase 2 standard, then the vehicle shall pass the
test for that pollutant. Composite and Phase 2 emission rates shall be calculated
in accordance with procedures specified in "High-Tech I/M Procedures,
Emissions Standards, Quality Control Requirements, and Equipment
Specifications: IM240 and Functional Evaporative System Tests, Revised
Technical Guidance," incorporated by reference at Section 240.107 of this Part.
b)
Vehicle Exhaust Emission Fast-Pass Standards - Compliance will be determined
based upon the measurement of exhaust emissions while operating the vehicle
on a dynamometer and following the driving cycle as specified for the transient
IM240 test procedures adopted by the Agency. Vehicles will be fast-passed
using the following algorithm:
1)
Beginning at second 30 of the driving cycle, cumulative second-by-
second emission levels for each second, calculated from the start of the
cycle in grams, will be compared to the cumulative fast-pass emission
standards for the second under consideration. Beginning at second 109,
fast-pass decisions are based upon analysis of cumulative emissions in
Phase 2, the portion of the test beginning at second 94, as well as
emission levels accumulated from the beginning of the composite test.
2)
A vehicle will pass the transient IM240 test for a given pollutant if either
of the following conditions occurs:
22
A)
cumulative emissions of the pollutant are below the full cycle
fast-pass standard for the second under consideration; or
B)
at second 109 and later, cumulative Phase 2 emissions are below
the Phase 2 fast-pass standards for the second under
consideration.
3)
Testing may be terminated when fast-pass criteria are met for all subject
pollutants in the same second.
4)
If a fast-pass determination cannot be made for all subject pollutants
before the driving cycle ends, the pass/fail determination for each
component will be based on composite or Phase 2 emissions over the full
driving cycle according to the procedures in subsection (a) of this
Section. In cases where fast-pass standards are not used, composite
emission rates in grams per mile for Phase 2 and for the entire composite
test will be recorded for each pollutant.
5)
Composite and Phase 2 emission rates will be calculated in accordance
with procedures specified in “High-Tech I/M Procedures, Emissions
Standards, Quality Control Requirements, and Equipment Specifications:
IM240 and Functional Evaporative System Tests, Revised Technical
Guidance” incorporated by reference at Section 240.107 of this Part.

Section 240.172 Evaporative System Integrity Test Standards
23
Vehicles subject to evaporative system integrity testing shall fail the evaporative system
integrity test if one of the following occurs:
a)
Fuel Cap Pressure Decay Standards - While tested using the fuel cap pressure
decay tester, the pressure decays by 6 inches of water or more during a 10
second period after being pressurized to 28+1 inches of water column;
b)
Fuel Cap Leak Flow Test Standards - While tested using the fuel cap leak flow
tester, the fuel cap leak flow rate exceeds 60 cc/min at a pressure of 30+1
inches of water column. Determination will be made by comparing the fuel
cap’s measured leak flow rate with the flow rate obtained from a calibrated
master orifice with a National Institute of Standards and Technology traceable
flow rate which will result in a pass/fail flow rate threshold of 60 cc/min of air
at 30+1 inches of water column; orc)
Visual Functional Test Standards -
While tested using the visual functional test, an inspection of the fuel cap
reveals one or more of the following:
1)
a missing fuel cap;
2)
a missing or damaged o-ring, gasket, or seal;
3)
missing or damaged threads, flanges, prongs, or other parts used to
secure the fuel cap to the fuel tank filler neck; and/or
4)
cracks, holes, or other visible forms of tampering or damage.

on-road remote sensing test procedures adopted by the Agency. If, during the course of on-
road inspections, a vehicle is found to exceed the on-road remote sensing emission standards
specified in Section 240.182 for the model year and type of vehicle, the Agency shall send a
notice to the vehicle owner of the violation, which notice will include the time and location of
the reading. The notice of a second on-road remote sensing exceedence shall, in addition to
the information contained in the first notice, indicate that the vehicle has been reassigned and
is subject to an out-of-cycle follow-up inspection at an official inspection station. In no case
shall the Agency send a notice of an on-road exceedence to the owner of a vehicle that was
found to exceed the on-road remote sensing emission standards if the vehicle is registered
outside the affected counties.
