Default CA State budget crisis hits referee stations

Well, I just confirmed that all CA Referee smog stations are closed due to the budget crisis until further notice. My friend is building an '82 Capri with a newer fuel injected 5.0 engine and was planning to visit a referee station when the project was completed. He mentioned the closure to me last night and the SB100 process immediately came to mind.

I wonder how this will hit our CA Cobra members looking to get through the SB 100 process? I went to a referee station at a community college in San Jose to get my registration completed a few years back. This doesn't appear to be an option now. Maybe you will have to visit a traditional smog station to get through the reg process??????

The phone number at the bottom of this link advises you that all offices are closed.
"Call (800) 622-7733 to schedule an appointment with a Referee Center."
