Emissions For 2010

[MS3DALE]

OK guys,There is A LOT of reading here,but I thought I would post this for those who are interested....

I know there was some questions from a forum member a few weeks ago about why his dealer couldn't dealer trade for a truck that was in another state,I told him because of certain emission requirements for his area,and that the truck he wanted didn't have the required emmisions equipment.

 

 

To: All General Motors Dealers

 

 

 

Subject: Emission Requirements for 2010 Model Year GM Vehicles

 

NOTE: APPLIES TO ALL GENERAL MOTORS FRANCHISES,

 

REGARDLESS OF DIVISION

 

 

 

This bulletin provides information on emission requirements applicable to all 2010 model year General Motors (GM) vehicles except the Chevrolet Kodiak and GMC Topkick. Please be aware that an improper sale can result in fines of up to $32,500 per vehicle on the manufacturer, dealer, and/or customer.

 

 

 

As a convenience for dealers, GM has supplied Tables 1-3, which list the PLANNED certification of 2010 model year GM products. Because certification plans may change, the underhood emission label (i.e., VEHICLE EMISSION CONTROL INFORMATION label, IMPORTANT ENGINE AND VEHICLE EMISSION CONTROL INFORMATION label, or IMPORTANT ENGINE INFORMATION label, as applicable) is the controlling document for purposes of determining whether a vehicle may be sold or registered in a particular state. Therefore, it is the sole responsibility of the dealer to review the underhood emission label to make this determination, regardless of the information in Tables 1-3, which are provided only as a convenience to the dealer and are based only on certification PLANS as of the date of this letter.

 

 

 

Emission Ordering Options: The following emission options will be used for 2010 model year GM vehicles.

 

 

 

FE9 - FEDERAL EMISSIONS. Use for ordering vehicles that will be registered in all states "except" California, Connecticut, Massachusetts, Maine, New Jersey, New York, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont and Washington State.

 

 

 

YF5 - CALIFORNIA EMISSIONS. Use for ordering vehicles that will be registered in California.

 

 

 

NE1 - CT/MA/ME/NJ/NY/OR/PA/RI/VT/WA EMISSIONS. Use for ordering vehicles that will be registered in Connecticut, Massachusetts, Maine, New Jersey, New York, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont or Washington State.

 

 

 

Connecticut/Massachusetts/Maine/New Jersey/New York/Oregon/Pennsylvania/Rhode Island/Vermont/Washington State Emission Requirements: All new 2010 model year GM cars and trucks sold for registration in the states of Connecticut, Massachusetts, Maine, New Jersey, New York, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont and Washington are required to meet California emission requirements. To meet these requirements, option code NE1 “CT/MA/ME/NJ/NY/OR/PA/RI/VT/WA EMISSIONS” should be ordered for 2010 model year vehicles that will be registered in Connecticut, Massachusetts, Maine, New Jersey, New York, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont or Washington State. Note below under “EPA Policy on the Sale of California Emission Vehicles” that dealers in bordering states (California, Delaware, Idaho, Maryland, New Hampshire, Nevada, Ohio and West Virginia) are permitted, but not required, to order and sell NE1 “CT/MA/ME/NJ/NY/OR/PA/RI/VT/WA EMISSIONS” vehicles.

 

 

 

Please be aware that vehicles ordered/produced with emission option FE9 cannot be sold for registration in Connecticut, Massachusetts, Maine, New Jersey, New York, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont or Washington State unless the vehicle is 50-state certified. To determine if a FE9 vehicle is 50-state certified, in addition to checking Table 1, the dealer MUST check the underhood emission label. If a FE9 vehicle is 50-state certified, the underhood emission label will show one of the entries listed in Table 4.

 

 

 

If the underhood emission label shows “California class / stds: N/A”, the vehicle is not 50-state certified but is Federal-only certified and the vehicle can not be sold for registration in Connecticut, Massachusetts, Maine, New Jersey, New York, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont or Washington State. Please see Table 2 for a list of vehicles that are planned to be Federal-only certified, and are not certified to California emission requirements. The vehicles listed in Table 2, and any vehicles that show “California class / stds: N/A” on the underhood emission label, can not be sold for registration in Connecticut, Massachusetts, Maine, New Jersey, New York, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont or Washington State. Sale of such a vehicle for registration in Connecticut, Massachusetts, Maine, New Jersey, New York, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont or Washington State is illegal, and can result in substantial fines on the manufacturer, dealer, and/or customer. In addition, the vehicle may need to be repurchased from the customer and resold in a state that does not require compliance with California emission requirements.

 

 

 

Special Note on New Jersey and Pennsylvania Requirements: Please note that the 2010 model year California emission requirements in New Jersey and Pennsylvania do not apply to trucks weighing between 8501 lbs and 14000 lbs gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR). While federal-only certified trucks weighing 8501 – 14000 lbs GVWR may be sold for registration in New Jersey and Pennsylvania, GM recommends, for simplicity, that NE1 be ordered for all vehicles that will be sold for registration in New Jersey and Pennsylvania, including trucks 8501 – 14000 lbs GVWR. Dealers in New Jersey and Pennsylvania may sell NE1 vehicles, including trucks weighing 8501 – 14000 lbs GVWR, to purchasers from any state.

 

 

 

Special Note on Washington State Requirements: Please note that the 2010 model year California emission requirements in Washington State do not apply to trucks weighing between 8501 lbs and 14000 lbs gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR) unless the trucks are defined as medium-duty passenger vehicles (MDPVs) in which case California requirements do apply. For the 2010 model year, GM MDPVs are the following products weighing between 8501 and 10000 lbs GVWR: Hummer H2; Chevrolet Suburban and GMC Yukon XL equipped with the L96 engine; Chevrolet Express and GMC Savana Cargo Vans equipped with the L20 or L96 engines and YF7 Upfitter Option; Chevrolet Express and GMC Savana Passenger Vans equipped with the L20 or L96 engines and 2, 5, 8, or 10 seats. While federal-only certified trucks weighing 8501 – 14000 lbs GVWR that are not MDPVs may be sold for registration in Washington State, GM recommends, for simplicity, that NE1 be ordered for all vehicles that will be sold for registration in Washington State, including trucks 8501 – 14000 lbs GVWR. Dealers in Washington State may sell NE1 vehicles, including trucks weighing 8501 – 14000 lbs GVWR, to purchasers from any state.

 

 

 

CaliforniaEmission Requirements: All new 2010 model year GM vehicles sold for registration in California are required to meet California emission requirements. To meet these requirements, option code YF5 “CALIFORNIA EMISSIONS” should be ordered for 2010 model year vehicles that will be registered in California. Note below under “EPA Policy on the Sale of California Emission Vehicles” that dealers in border states (Arizona, Nevada and Oregon) are permitted, but not required, to order and sell YF5 “CALIFORNIA EMISSIONS” vehicles.

 

 

 

Please be aware that vehicles ordered/produced with emission option FE9 cannot be sold for registration in California unless the vehicle is 50-state certified. To determine if a FE9 vehicle is 50-state certified, in addition to checking Table 1, the dealer MUST check the underhood emission label. If a FE9 vehicle is 50-state certified, the underhood emission label will show one of the entries listed in Table 4.

 

 

 

If the underhood emission label shows “California class / stds: N/A”, the vehicle is not 50-state certified but is Federal-only certified and the vehicle can not be sold for registration in California. Please see Table 2 for a list of vehicles that are planned to be Federal-only certified, and are not certified to California emission requirements. The vehicles listed in Table 2, and any vehicles that show “California class / stds: N/A” on the underhood emission label, can not be sold for registration in California. Sale of such a vehicle for registration in California is illegal, and can result in fines of up to $7,500 per vehicle on the manufacturer, dealer, and/or customer. In addition, the vehicle may need to be repurchased from the customer and resold in a state that does not require compliance with California emission requirements.

 

 

 

Federal Emission Requirements: All new 2010 model year GM vehicles sold for registration in all states except California, Connecticut, Massachusetts, Maine, New Jersey, New York, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont and Washington are required to meet Federal emission requirements (except as explained below under “EPA Policy on the Sale of California Emission Vehicles”). To meet these requirements, option code FE9 “FEDERAL EMISSIONS” should be ordered for 2010 model year vehicles that will be registered in all states except California, Connecticut, Massachusetts, Maine, New Jersey, New York, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont and Washington.

 

 

 

Please be aware that vehicles ordered/produced with emission option NE1 or YF5 cannot be sold for registration in Federal emission states unless the vehicle is 50-state certified (or unless permitted by the “EPA Policy on the Sale of California Emission Vehicles”). To determine if a NE1 or YF5 vehicle is 50-state certified, in addition to checking Table 1, the dealer MUST check the underhood emission label. If a NE1 or YF5 vehicle is 50-state certified, the underhood emission label will show one of the entries listed in Table 5.

 

 

 

If the underhood emission label shows “U.S. EPA class / stds: N/A”, the vehicle is not 50-state certified but is California-only certified and the vehicle can not be sold for registration in Federal emission states except as permitted by the “EPA Policy on the Sale of California Emission Vehicles”. Please see Table 3 for a list of vehicles that are planned to be California-only certified and are not certified to Federal emission requirements. The vehicles listed in Table 3 can not be sold for registration in Federal emission states (except as explained below under “EPA Policy on the Sale of California Emission Vehicles”). Sale of a vehicle listed in Table 3 for registration in a Federal emission state is illegal, and can result in fines of up to $32,500 per vehicle on the manufacturer, dealer, and/or customer. In addition, the vehicle may need to be repurchased from the customer and resold in a state that does not require compliance with Federal emission requirements.

 

 

 

 

 

Emission Bypass Ordering: An emission override option will be required in cases where a dealer orders a 2010 model year emissions configuration that may not be legal for vehicle registration in the state in which the vehicle is being delivered to. The dealer is responsible for verifying that the purchaser intends to register the vehicle in a state that permits the emissions configuration ordered by the dealer. Neither Maine nor Vermont dealers should use an emission override because the Maine and Vermont regulations do not allow dealers to take delivery of a non-California certified (Federal) vehicle, even if the vehicle is to be sold to a customer who will register the vehicle in another state.

 

 

 

NB8 - Required when option code FE9 “FEDERAL EMISSIONS” is ordered for delivery to a dealer located in California, Connecticut, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island and Washington State for a purchaser who will be registering the vehicle outside California, Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont and Washington State. Do not use for vehicles that will be registered in California, Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont or Washington State.

 

 

 

NC7 - Required when option code YF5 “CALIFORNIA EMISSIONS” or option code NE1 "CT/MA/ME/NJ/NY/OR/PA/RI/VT/WA EMISSIONS" is ordered for delivery to a dealer located in any state except California, Connecticut, Massachusetts, Maine, New Jersey, New York, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont and Washington for a purchaser who will be registering the vehicle in one of these states or sold as permitted below under “EPA Policy on the Sale of California Emission Vehicles”.

 

 

 

NB9 - Required when option code YF5 is ordered for delivery to a dealer located in Connecticut, Massachusetts, Maine, New Jersey, New York, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont and Washington. Required when option code NE1 is ordered for delivery to a dealer located in California.

 

 

 

 

 

50-State Emission Certification: The 2010 model year GM products listed in Table 1 are planned to be certified to meet the emission requirements of all fifty states. Because certification plans may change, the underhood emission label is the controlling document for purposes of determining whether a vehicle may be sold or registered in a particular state. Therefore, it is the sole responsibility of the dealer to review the underhood emission label to make this determination, regardless of the information in Table 1, which is provided only as a convenience to the dealer and is based only on certification PLANS as of the date of this letter.

 

 

 

Note that, for products in Table 1 that have an asterisk (*) next to the vehicle model name, emission option NE1 or YF5 must be ordered to receive the 50-state certification. In cases where it is uncertain as to where the vehicle will ultimately be sold and registered, such as for certain upfitters, NE1 or YF5 may be ordered to provide a 50-state certification as shown in Table 1. This will provide additional sales flexibility. However, the NE1 and YF5 50-state certifications may have more costly emission control systems than the FE9 Federal certification. Therefore, in cases where the dealer knows that the vehicle will be sold for registration in a state that has Federal emission requirements, the dealer is requested to order the FE9 federal certification.

 

 

 

Emission Statements on the Invoice and MSO A statement indicating the emission certification may also appear on the invoice and the Manufacturers Statement of Origin (MSO). The MSO is used by the Department of Motor Vehicles in some states to verify that the vehicle complies with the emission requirements applicable in that state. The following table lists the various emission statements that may be listed on the invoice and the MSO, and what those statements mean in terms of where the vehicle is certified for sale/registration. The emission certification indicated by the statements on the invoice and the MSO should be consistent with the emission certification indicated by the underhood emission label and the attached tables. If any of these pieces of information are inconsistent for a given vehicle, please contact General Motors immediately. Until such contact is made, the underhood emission label is controlling and overrides all other documentation and, therefore, should be assumed to be correct pending resolution with General Motors.

*May also be sold by dealers located in states that border California, Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont or Washington State as permitted under “EPA Policy on the Sale of California Emission Vehicles”.

 

 

 

EPA Policy on the Sale of California Emission Vehicles: EPA’s policy for the 2010 model year as it applies to GM products is as follows. EPA allows dealers in California, Connecticut, Massachusetts, Maine, New Jersey, New York, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont and Washington State and their contiguous states to sell vehicles that meet California emission requirements to purchasers from any state in the U.S. Therefore, vehicles that are ordered with option code YF5 or NE1 may be sold by dealers in California, Connecticut, Massachusetts, Maine, New Jersey, New York, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont, Washington State and their contiguous states (Arizona, Delaware, Idaho, Maryland, Nevada, New Hampshire, Ohio and West Virginia) to purchasers from any state in the U.S.

 

 

 

Requirements for Diesel Engines in Vehicles Over 14,000 lbs GVWR: Different requirements apply to vehicles weighing over 14,000 lbs GVWR that are equipped with diesel engines. These requirements impact the Chevrolet Express and GMC Savana Vans weighing over 14,000 lbs GVWR that are equipped with the 6.6-liter Duramax diesel engine (LMM). For these vehicles, a different set of states has adopted California emission requirements, specifically, California, Connecticut, Delaware, Georgia, Maine, New Jersey, North Carolina and Pennsylvania. And GM has established a different set of emission options for use by dealers as follows.

 

 

 

CEJ - FEDERAL EMISSIONS. Use for ordering vehicles that will be registered in all states except California, Connecticut, Delaware, Georgia, Maine, New Jersey, North Carolina and Pennsylvania.

 

YF5 - CALIFORNIA EMISSIONS. Use for ordering vehicles that will be registered in California. Note: No 14,200 lb product offering available except for models with option packages ANC, B3D, YF1, or YF2.

 

 

 

CEI - CT/DE/GA/ME/NJ/NC/PA EMISSIONS. Use for ordering vehicles that will be registered in Connecticut, Delaware, Georgia, Maine, New Jersey, North Carolina and Pennsylvania. Note: No 14,200 lb product offering available except for models with option packages ANC, B3D, YF1, or YF2.

 

 

 

GM has also established a different set of emission overrides as follows.

 

 

 

CEK - Required when option code CEJ “FEDERAL EMISSIONS” is ordered by a dealer located in California, Connecticut, Delaware, Georgia, New Jersey, North Carolina and Pennsylvania for a purchaser who will be registering the vehicle outside California, Connecticut, Delaware, Georgia, Maine, New Jersey, North Carolina and Pennsylvania. Do not use for vehicles that will be registered in California, Connecticut, Delaware, Georgia, Maine, New Jersey, North Carolina or Pennsylvania.

 

 

 

 

 

CEM - Required when option code YF5 “CALIFORNIA EMISSIONS” or option code CEI “CT/DE/GA/ME/NJ/NC/PA EMISSIONS" is ordered by a dealer located in any state except California, Connecticut, Delaware, Georgia, New Jersey, North Carolina and Pennsylvania.

In addition to checking the above table, the dealer must also check the underhood emission label. Because certification plans may change, the underhood emission label is the controlling document for purposes of determining whether a vehicle may be sold or registered in a particular state. Therefore, it is the sole responsibility of the dealer to review the underhood emission label to make this determination, regardless of the information in the above table, which is provided only as a convenience to the dealer and is based only on certification PLANS as of the date of this letter. If the underhood emission label shows “California class / stds: N/A”, the vehicle is not 50-state certified but is Federal-only certified and the vehicle can not be sold for registration in California, Connecticut, Delaware, Georgia, Maine, New Jersey, North Carolina or Pennsylvania.

 

 

 

 

 

Clean Fuel Vehicle Requirements: Federal or state law may require certain fleet owners in certain metropolitan areas to purchase vehicles meeting Federal Clean Fuel Vehicle (CFV) requirements (also known as Clean Fuel Fleet, or CFF). Based on a determination made by the U.S Environmental Protection Agency (US EPA), all 2010 model year GM vehicles ordered with option code FE9 “FEDERAL EMISSIONS” meet the Clean Fuel Vehicle Low Emission Vehicle (CFV LEV) standards. Because of this, GM is not offering a unique CFV option code in the 2010 model year. Dealers can simply order FE9 to receive a CFF LEV qualifying vehicle. As stated earlier in this letter, FE9 should not be ordered for vehicles that will be registered in California, Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont or Washington State. Vehicles ordered with the NE1 or YF5 emission options that are also 50-state emission certified as identified in Table 1 and on the underhood emission label will also qualify toward the CFF LEV requirements.

This is incredibly an needlessly complicated. Why not just meet the most stringent emission controls and impose these in all states? It would probably cost less in the long run than all these different configurations. If California must be special, then have special emission requirementss for California only, and common emission requirements for all other states.

Yep,I agree Pete...why they have to make it so complicated is beyond me!

BTW...Still waiting on those prices.

Hey Rich, could this be made a sticky???

 

Yep!

Yep!

 

 

 

sweet, thanks.

This goes right along with the 300+ blends of gas for every air district. Everyone has to be "special".

Are cliff notes available?

Actually, the Obama Administration's new fuel economy and emissions rules do this. From 2012 through 2016, automakers must increase fleet fuel efficiency by 5 percent per year to reach 35.5 mpg.

 

One reason the automakers went along with it was that they won from the government a commitment to a single set of fuel and pollution standards until the 2016 model year. The new rules will incorporate California's tougher standards but eliminate any market uncertainty. The new federal standards will match California's -- but do so in a way that protects Detroit from having to produce one fleet of cars to meet the tougher California standard (embraced by 13 other states) while simultaneously producing another fleet that met the more lax federal standards.

 

"It's going to be tough to meet these new standards," said one domestic auto source, "but there is industry buy-in behind having one national standard."

Our tax $s at work...

 

Wonder what this alone does to the bottom line for all of the manufacturers....

Just a Californian's perspective on the smog reqmts. I came to California in the late sixties. When we came down the pass into "the basin" of Los Angles/San Bernadino I couldn't see the mountains less than 5 miles away, my throat burned, and my eyes were running like I was chopping onions. In 1968, there was probably around 7-8 million people in "the basin" (LA, San Bernadino, Orange, Riverside, counties). Today, there are about twice that. Yet today, the air is many many times cleaner and this has literally saved real lives and prevented lung diseases.

 

I used to think the smog controls and laws for them were more govm't crap. But, I've lived it here and I'm convinced that they are critical to our health. If you're in a small rural area with no smog issues, you probably don't feel the same way. But, the bulk of the population in the U.S. is in the cities, a good sized chunk of it in California. Besides, given the prevailing winds, the rest of the country gets all the secondhand air from us.

Looks like I won't be buying a new truck again. That emmissions crap on a vehicle is just more money to spend in the long run.

Do you have the original bulliten number or doc#? I get confused when the tables don't look like they do in the bullitens.

[MS3DALE]

Do you have the original bulletin number or doc#? I get confused when the tables don't look like they do in the bulletins.

 

Mike,Sorry but I don't,I don't remember exactly where I found it at! I know it was in GlobalConnect I just don't know where,I think it was a sticky that was on the front page as soon as you logged-into GlobalConnect.

If I come across the number I'll post it.

[MS3DALE]

Mike...Found it,It wasn't a bulletin or a document,It was in the form of a letter dated 06/24/09,If you go into the search menu and use this reference number.... G_0000032111 It should come up.

*NOTE: Its under "ARCHIVE",so make sure to check off the archive box next to the "Message Status" selection in the search menu or it will NOT come up *
