Connecticut: Registration, Inspection & Emissions

[Don]

Update on 1400:

I checked with the Senate staff, sending a Bill to a Committee (s) is part of the normal legislative process, allows for the due diligence phase in preparation for a vote, amendments, etc

Bill was referred to the Judiciary Committee by Senate. Review of certain sections ( not our part) was completed and Two amendments made to the overall bill. Not sure if it goes back to Senate or Transportation committee. Expect to find out on Monday.

Any news? Thanks...

The Senate DMV Bill 1400 is still in progress with the Committees etc, does not appear that Section 38 with the Composite emission exemption has been amended, no vote yet for the full House and Senate


Explanation

There is a minimal revenue impact, less than $1,000, as a result of this section exempting composite motor vehicles from emissions inspection. There are less than 100 such vehicles processed through safety inspections by DMV.

OLR Analysis:

The bill exempts composite motor vehicles that have met the requirements for a safety inspection by the DMV from the emissions inspection program. A composite motor vehicle is one composed or assembled from several parts of other motor vehicles, or the identification and body contours of which are so altered that the vehicle no longer bears the characteristics of any specific make of motor vehicle. Any vehicle not assembled by a manufacturer licensed in Connecticut is classified as a composite motor vehicle.

EFFECTIVE DATE: July 1, 2007 " IF PASSED " and signed by the Gov

Reference Section 38
