Sec.  80.50  General test procedure requirements for augmentation of the 

emission models.



    (a) The following test procedure must be followed when testing to

    (1) VOC, NOX, CO, and CO2 emissions must be 

measured for all fuel-vehicle combinations tested.

    (2) Toxics emissions must be measured when testing the extension 

fuels per the requirements of Sec.  80.49(b) or when testing addition 

fuels 1, 2, or 3 per the requirements of Sec.  80.49(a).

    (3) When testing addition fuels 4, 5, 6, and 7 per the requirements 

of Sec.  80.49(a), toxics emissions need not be measured. However, EPA 

reserves the right to require the inclusion of such measurements in the 

test program prior to approval of the test program if evidence exists 

which suggests that adverse interactive effects of the parameter in 

question may exist for toxics emissions.

    (b) The general requirements per 40 CFR 86.130-96 shall be met.

    (c) The engine starting and restarting procedures per 40 CFR 86.136-

90 shall be followed.

    (d) Except as provided for at Sec.  80.59, general preparation of 

vehicles being tested shall follow procedures detailed in 40 CFR 86.130-

96 and 86.131-96.
