*Abstract:*                     Under Title II of the Clean Air Act (CAA) (42 U.S.C. 7521*et seq.*                    ), EPA issues certificates of conformity for motor vehicle designs and engines that comply with applicable emission standards set under section 202(a)(1) of the CAA, such as those for CO2, N2                    O, and CH4                     in the final regulation. Under 49 U.S.C. 32902, NHTSA is mandated to require manufacturers comply with fuel economy and consumption standards. Manufacturers will submit applications to certify their products and respond to the information collection activities detailed in the HD National Program. They will also submit reports, conduct compliance testing, label certified vehicles, provide final year-end-reports and retain records of information.                

Manufacturer test results will be used by EPA to perform confirmatory testing on a sufficient number of engines and vehicles to confirm manufacturer-reported results. EPA's emission certification programs and NHTSA's fuel efficiency programs are statutorily mandated. EPA does not have discretion to cease these functions under Section 206(a) of the CAA (42 U.S.C. 7521).
