Maine
Motor Vehicle Emissions Standards
Maine has adopted the California motor vehicle emissions standards in Title 13 of the California Code of Regulations, with the exception of California's zero emission vehicle program. These regulations apply to any Model Year (MY) 2001 and subsequent MY passenger cars and light-duty trucks; MY 2003 and subsequent MY medium-duty vehicles; MY 2005 and 2006 heavy-duty vehicles and diesel engines; and all 2008 and subsequent model year heavy-duty diesel vehicles and engines. Beginning with MY 2009, manufacturers must meet the zero emissions vehicle sales requirement. (Reference Department of Environmental Protection, Chapter 127)
