AN ACT relative to emission control equipment.
Be it Enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives in General Court convened:
1 Emission Control Equipment; Exemptions. Amend RSA 266:59-b, IV to read as follows:
IV. This section shall not apply to vehicles manufactured [prior to the 1975 model year] 20 or more years prior to the inspection date, motorcycles, antique motor vehicles, street rods, composite vehicles, or motor vehicles registered as agricultural vehicles. For purposes of this section, "composite vehicle" means any homemade vehicle or a vehicle made from several different parts of other motor vehicles to the degree that it is obviously a mixture of parts or that the serial number of the body, frame, and engine do not reflect the vehicle's unit identity.
2 Repeal. RSA 266:59-b, relative to emission control equipment, is repealed.
3 Contingency. Section 2 of this act shall take effect upon the date that the commissioner of safety certifies to the secretary of state that federal law no longer requires mandatory visual inspection or testing of emission control equipment on motor vehicles as a condition of receipt by the state of any federal funds.
4 Effective Date.
I. Section 2 of this act shall take effect as provided in section 3 of this act.
II. The remainder of this act shall take effect January 1, 2004.
