MOTOR VEHICLE EMISSIONS CONTROL
4-6-1 SHORT TITLE
This Ordinance may be cited as The 1999 Motor Vehicle Emissions Control Ordinance.
4-6-2 LEGISLATIVE FINDINGS AND PURPOSE OF ORDINANCE
It is found and declared that exhaust emissions from Motor Vehicles are a major source of air
pollution throughout Ada County and such air pollution is a health hazard to all residents of the
County and its incorporated cities;
It is further found and declared that an effective system of periodic motor vehicle inspection and
maintenance will reduce the level of vehicular -based air pollution;
It is further found and declared that the federal government has mandated to the several states
and local entities the ultimate responsibility for periodic motor vehicle inspection and
maintenance;
It is further found and declared that Ada County has been designated as a non -attainment area for
both carbon monoxide and small particulate matter (PM10) and as such is mandated under the
Federal Clean Air Act to reduce emissions so that the National Ambient Air Quality Standards
will be attained and maintained;
It is further found and declared that Ada County and its incorporated cities will be monitored for
PM2.5 and ozone in the immediate future, and that the primary source of both of these pollutants
in Ada County is exhaust emissions from motor vehicles.
It is further found and declared that fuel economy is a legitimate legislative purpose and that an
efficient emissions control program will result in motor vehicle fuel savings for the residents of
Ada County and its incorporated cities;
Page 1 of 13
K:\COUNCIL\Draft Ordinances\Ord 346.doc
It is further found and declared that the city of Eagle is duly authorized to enact and enforce this
Ordinance under Idaho Code '31-714 and '..., respectively;
5D -30A
The purposes of this Ordinance, therefore, are to protect the health and welfare of the citizens of
Ada County and its incorporated cities, to provide for the continued control and management of
exhaust emissions above certain levels as determined by the Federal Clean Air Act, as amended,
as well as Rules for the Control of Air Pollution in the State of Idaho (IDAPA 16.01.01, et seq),
and to empower the Air Quality Board to design and implement required periodic inspection of
certain motor vehicles.
