"a Light-duty truck categories LDT1-LDT4 were not created until 1994.  From 1968 to 1978 all trucks with a GVWR up to 6,000 pounds were classified as light-duty trucks and were required to meet the same standards.  As of 1979, the maximum weight was raised to 8,500 pounds GVWR.  During 1988-93, light-duty trucks were divided into two subcategories that coincide with the current LDT1-LDT4 categories.  The standards for LDT1, LDT2, and LDT4 are given in tables 4-30a, 4-40b, and 4-30d.",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
"b The test procedure for measuring exhaust emissions has changed several times over the course of vehicle emissions regulation.  The 7-mode procedure was used through model year 1971 and was replaced by the CVS-72 procedure beginning in model year 1972.  The CVS-75 procedure  became the test procedure as of model year 1975.  While it may appear that the total HC and CO standards were relaxed in 1972-74, these standards were actually more stringent due to the more stringent nature of the CVS-72 test procedure. Additional standards for CO and composite standards for NMHC and NOx tested over the new Supplemental Federal Test Procedure will be phased-in beginning with model year 2002. These standards are not shown in this table. ",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
"c Emissions standards had to be met for a full useful life of 5 years/50,000 miles through model year 1983, and a full useful life of 11 years/120,000 miles was defined for 1985-93 (several useful life options were available for 1984).  Beginning in model year 1996, emissions standards were established for an intermediate useful life of 5 years/50,000 miles as well as a full useful life of 11 years/120,000 miles (intermediate and full useful life standards are shown in parentheses).  This applied to all pollutants except HC and particulates for all LDT3 vehicles and NOx for diesel-powered LDT3 vehicles, which were only required to meet full useful life standards.  Tier 1 exhaust standards were phased-in during 1996-97 at a rate of 50% and 100%, respectively. ",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
"d The cold CO emissions standard is measured at 20 0F (rather than 75 0F) and is applicable for a 5-year/50,000-mile useful life.",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
e GVWR is the maximum design loaded weight.  ALVW is the numerical average of the GVWR and the curb weight.,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
"f Manufacturers can opt to certify vehicles for a full useful life of 15 years/150,000 miles and either have (1) intermediate useful life standards waived or (2) receive additional NOx credits.",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
"g The ""Prior to controls"" column reports emissions estimates of a typical newly manufactured car in the years before exhaust emissions certifcation standards were implemented.",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
h No estimate available.,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
"i In 1968-69, exhaust emissions standards were issued in parts per million rather than grams per mile and are, therefore, incompatible with this table.",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
j No standard has been set.,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
"k The term ""tier"" refers to a level of standards for specific years.  Interim 2 refers to an intermediate level of standards that moves manufacturers toward compliance with Tier 2 standards.  Interim Tier 2 and Tier 2 standards are established as ""bins."" Each bin is a set of standards for NOx, CO, NMOG, formaldehyde, and particulates (HC and NMHC standards are dropped for Tier 2 and Interim Tier 2). Manufacturers may certify any given vehicle family to any of the bins available for that vehicle class as long as the resulting sales-weighted corporate average NOx standard is met for full useful life. The Tier 2 corporate average NOx standard is 0.07 grams/mile. Interim corporate-based average NOx standards are based on vehicle type. The interim corporate sales-weighted average for LDT3 vehicles is 0.6 grams/mile. Tier 2 LDT3 standards will be phased in during 2008 and 2009. In 2008, 50% of LDT3 vehicles must meet Tier 2 standards; the others must meet Interim Tier 2 standards. Beginning in 2009, all LDT3 vehicles must meet Tier 2 standards. ",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
