The Honorable, The Legislature:
The following annual report on the Wisconsin Vehicle Inspection Program (WVIP) summarizes the operating data for the 1994 fiscal year. This period covers July 1993 through June 1994.
The Wisconsin Vehicle Inspection Program, in operation since 1984, is one of the primary components in the region's strategy to reduce vehicle emissions in the southeastern Wisconsin ozone non-attainment area. Over 950,000 vehicles are tested annually in Wisconsin's "severe" ozone non-attainment area-which includes Kenosha, Milwaukee, Ozaukee, Racine, Washington and Waukesha Counties. The program was expanded to Sheboygan county in July 1993, which is designated as a "moderate" ozone non-attainment area.
S140
The WVIP test vehicles for hydrocarbon (ozone-forming) and carbon monoxide tailpipe emissions. Since April 1989, vehicles have also undergone an equipment inspection, to make sure that their factory-installed emissions control equipment has not been removed disabled or altered. The program has effectively prevented an average of 40, 000 tons hydrocarbon (HC) and and carbon monoxide (CO) vehicle emissions from polluting the air each year.
If you have any questions or comments after reviewing this annual report, please contact us to discuss them.
