AIR RESOURCES BOARD
Spark Ignition Marine Watercraft 2015
The California Air Resources Board is amending two
sections and adopting multiple sections in title 13 of the
California Code of Regulations. The primary purpose
for this rulemaking action is to set more stringent evap-orative emission standards than those adopted by U.S.
EPA for Spark Ignition Marine Watercraft (SIMW).
This rulemaking also includes provisions for certifica-
tion, labeling, enforcement, and recall. New test proce-
dures are established for determining evaporative emis-sions testing using the latest control technology to con-
firm the technical feasibility of these regulations. The
goal of these regulations is to reduce reactive organic
gases from SIMW in order to meet the federally man-
dated national ambient air quality standards. Addition-ally, these regulations will result in the reduced expo-
sure to benzene, a toxic air contaminant.
