I never was contacted with any updates, a follow-up has been sent to CT Emissions and DMV. I will post any replies.

Hi

Earlier this year there was a reference that the 2007 Composite Emissions standards would be changed, are the new standards available ? If not, is there a planned announcement date ?

.................thanks


Don

Not included in the follow-up e-mail :

With only 289 Composites of all types registered in CT as of 10-01-05 and guessing at another 20 ( + or - ) in 2006, it does seem the Administrative effort and cost has a negative return.

For discussion purposes, the Composite drive season is probably from April 1 to mid November. Using a 7 month drive season, 309 Composites X 2,500 miles per year ( avg ?), the impact of the Composites on CT emissions has to be less than 0.0000001%

CT Composite Registrations:

1950 to 1960: 5
1961 to 1969: 17
1970 to 1979: 12
1980 to 1989: 74
1990 to 1999: 70
2000: 14
2001: 20
2002: 17
2003: 19
2004: 15
2005: 16 ( as of 10-01-05 )

2000 to 2005: 101

Total of 289
