Who may issue vehicle emissions report
 10. (1) A person is authorized to issue a vehicle emissions report for heavy diesel commercial motor vehicles if the person, (a) has successfully completed, within the previous 24 months, a course satisfactory to the Director with respect to the testing of air emissions and OBD systems of heavy diesel commercial motor vehicles; and (b) has not been given a notice referred to in subsection (2). (2) The Director may give a notice to a person mentioned in subsection (1) if the Director is of the opinion that the person is incompetent or otherwise unfit to issue a vehicle emissions report for heavy diesel commercial motor vehicles and may, in the notice, require the person to successfully complete one or more courses specified by the Director to address the incompetence or unfitness. (3) Before the Director gives a notice to a person under subsection (2), the Director shall give the person a draft of the notice and an opportunity to make written submissions to the Director within the seven-day period after the draft is given.
Where testing must take place
 11. Testing for the purpose of a vehicle emissions report must take place at a facility that is the subject of an agreement, entered into between a business and the Crown, known as, (a) a Heavy Duty Diesel Vehicle Emissions Test Facility Performance Contract; or (b) a Mobile Heavy Duty Diesel Vehicle Emissions Test Facility Performance Contract.
Preconditions for test
 12. A heavy diesel commercial motor vehicle shall not be tested for the purpose of a vehicle emissions report if any of the following circumstances apply: 1. The vehicle has visible emissions for more than five seconds in any one-minute period. 2. The vehicle has a missing fuel cap or fuel cap that fits improperly. 3. The vehicle has exhaust leaks. 4. The motor governor fails, malfunctions or is maladjusted. 5. The vehicle identification number is missing or does not match the vehicle permit. 6. There is an inability to connect to the data link connector, such as because there is a device attached to the data link connector. 7. The testing may cause a risk to health or safety. 8. The testing may cause damage to equipment, to property or to the vehicle.
Conditions for vehicle emissions report indicating a pass
 13. (1) A person who is authorized to issue a vehicle emissions report, and who tests a heavy diesel commercial motor vehicle, shall issue a vehicle emissions report indicating a pass to a person who owns or has management or control of the vehicle only if the following criteria are met: 1. No more than three non-continuous monitors of the vehicle’s OBD systems are “Not Ready” or “non prêt”. 2. One of the following scenarios is true: i. The malfunction indicator light is commanded off. ii. The malfunction indicator light is commanded on, and no OBD system has an active, emission-related DTC. 3. If the vehicle were operated, the opacity of the vehicle’s emissions would not exceed the percentage specified in Column 2 opposite vehicles of that model year in Column 1 of the following Table: TABLE Item   Column 1   Model Year of Heavy Diesel Vehicle   Column 2   Opacity Percentage 

  1.   1990 and older   If the vehicle is not a school bus, 40%   If the vehicle is a school bus, 30%
