						per start ×100)÷Certified Use Rate
where,
0.020 = the certification emissions level for the New
						York State approved product, as specified in subparagraph 235-3.1(f)(2)(i) of
						this Part, and
Certified Use Rate = the usage level for products
						approved by the director, Division of Air Resources, Department of

						235-3.1(f)  of this
						Part, as determined pursuant to South Coast Air Quality Management District,
						Rule 1174, Ignition Method Compliance Certification Protocol (Feb. 28, 1991)
