An Act amending Title 75 (Vehicles) of the Pennsylvania Consolidated Statutes, in inspection of vehicles, further providing for prohibition on expenditures for emission inspection program.

HB 2208 removes counties with populations between 168,000 and 169,000 (based on the latest census) from Pennsylvania’s enhanced vehicle emission inspection program. It requires the Department of Environmental Protection to submit a revised state plan to the EPA by January 1, 2026, proving these counties can meet air quality standards without the inspection program. The plan must comply with federal requirements and avoid negatively impacting air quality goals or funding. The department must also notify specific legislative committees about the EPA submission.
