Key Changes: This SIP revision modifies the vehicle inspection and maintenance (I/M) program to include on-board diagnostic checks and acceleration simulation mode test equipment or its equivalent. The I/M program is one element of the control strategy to reduce emissions of ozone precursor compounds necessary for the counties included in the DFW, El Paso, and HGB ozone nonattainment areas to be able to demonstrate attainment with the national ambient air quality standards for ozone.
