Frequently Asked Questions | California Air Resources Board
Use of these vehicles on any road or freeway with posted speed limits above 35 MPH can result in a citation, regardless of the speed at which traffic may actually be operating.Please note that due to the restrictions of the safety standards, NEV's cannot be issued any California HOV lane access decals.Smog Check InformationpermalinkThe California Smog Check program is administered by the Bureau of Automotive Repairs (BAR).BAR Consumer Information CenterGeneral questions, complaint information, station and repair facility license verification
(800) 952-5210BAREditor@dca.ca.govHow do I verify if a car, truck, or motorcycle is compliant with California law?permalinkAll vehicles that comply with California regulations have a Vehicle Emissions Information label on a visible location on the vehicle. In addition to listing all equipment used on the vehicle to comply with California requirements, the label lists the vehicles test group or Engine family Number. This number can be cross referenced on our website by checking the Executive Order for the year make and Test Group.New vehicles that have not yet been registered will also have a Manufacturers Certificate of Origin that will state the standards that the vehicle complies with and list the manufacturers legal name so that you can cross reference that information with the Executive Order.Vehicles without these required information labels are not legal for sale in California.Locating the emissions label Recreational Vehicles & WatercraftHow is the length of the marine watercraft defined?permalinkPer 33 CFR 183.3, the length of a vessel is defined as “the straight line horizontal measurement of the overall length from the foremost part of the boat to the aftermost part of the boat, measured from end to end over the deck excluding sheer, and measured parallel to the centerline. Bow sprits, bumpkins, rudders, outboard motor brackets, handles, and other similar fittings, attachments, and extensions are not included in the measurement.”Certified component are often distributed and marketed under several brand names. In this case, do the component distributors need to obtain separate certification for their branded components?permalinkNo. If the original component Executive Order holder notifies CARB that their certified component will be distributed under other brand names, those distributors may use the original certified component EO number and/or the identifying mark on the label with their company name.
Two-Stroke Vessel Engines
Yes, there are no restrictions on the sale of pre-2001 model year engines. In addition, dealers may continue to sell trade-in engines and pre-2001 model year engines.

Can I still use my boat on my favorite lake or river? 

Several water agencies have recently restricted access to their lakes or reservoirs in order to protect or improve water quality. Specifically, Lake Tahoe, the East Bay Municipal Utility District and the Santa Clara Valley Water District have each adopted restrictions for their waterways because of concerns about gasoline constituents found in their waters. These actions have been taken on a lake-by-lake basis and have been local rather than statewide.

What engines will be available that meet the new requirements? 

Manufacturers have already introduced a variety of engines between 2 and 225 horsepower that comply with the new regulations. Several two-stroke direct injection engines have been available on the market. These engines offer consumers improved fuel economy, lower oil consumption, and improved idle performance while significantly reducing pollution and maintaining the performance characteristics of traditional two-strokes. Four-stroke engines are also available that comply with the new regulations. These have been available to consumers for many years and also offer improved fuel and oil economy. The ARB offers the following related "New Standards for Cleaner Watercraft" and "Watercraft Labeling." Call 1-(800) END-SMOG to order.

What about the label program? 

The marine engine regulations require manufacturers to apply an environmental label to new outboard engines and personal watercraft. These labels clearly identify the emissions performance of new engines meeting the regulations. The intent of these labels is to help consumers choose clean technology engines when making a purchase decision.

FAQs • San Bruno, CA • CivicEngage
The Federal Communications Commission (FCC), in consultation with numerous other federal agencies, including the Environmental Protection Agency, the Food and Drug Administration, and the Occupational Safety and Health Administration, has developed safety standards. The FCC explains that its standards incorporate prudent margins of safety. It explains further that radio frequency emissions from antennas used for cellular and PCS transmissions result in exposure levels on the ground that are typically thousands of times below safety limits. The FCC provides information about the safety of RF emissions from wireless telecommunications facilities on its website. See this FAQ for additional information and resources. 

10.
How can I get more information about my health concerns?

The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) provides information on its safety standards and determinations on its website.Questions regarding potential Radiofrequency (RF) hazards from FCC-regulated transmitters can be directed to the Federal Communications Commission, Consumer and Governmental Affairs Bureau:455 12th Street SWWashington DC, 20554Phone: 888-225-5322 (1-888-CALL-FCC)Email RF Safety 

11.
Can Local and State governmental bodies establish limits for RF exposure?

The Telecommunications Act of 1996 contains provisions relating to federal jurisdiction over the regulation of human exposure to RF emissions from certain transmitting devices. In particular, Section 704 of the Act states that “No state or local government or instrumentality thereof may regulate the placement, construction, and modification of personal wireless service facilities on the basis of environmental effects of radiofrequency emissions to the extent that such facilities comply with the Commission’s regulations concerning such emission.” (47 U.S.C. §332(c)(7)(B)(iv).) Further information on FCC policy with respect to facilities siting is available from the FCC’s Wireless Telecommunications Bureau and in the Local Government Official’s Guide to Transmitting Antenna RF Emission Safety (PDF). 

12.
Is a permit required from the City for these installations?

Yes. Currently, the City’s existing Wireless Telecommunications Facilities Ordinance requires a Use Permit (UP) for the installation of wireless facilities both on private property or within the public right-of-way. A license agreement - and annual fee - is required for installations on City-owned poles.

Personal Watercraft - NYS Parks, Recreation & Historic Preservation

Many municipalities have additional operating restrictions on personal watercraft use including operating hours and distance from shore.
Lifejackets
Lifejacket wear is always required for all operators and passengers of personal watercraft, regardless of age. Your lifejacket must be:

US Coast Guard approved
Free of fading, rips or tears
The proper size for the intended wearer
Intended for personal watercraft use - check the label. Most inflatable lifejackets are not approved for use on personal watercraft. 

https://www.safeboatingcouncil.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/life-jacket-national-safe-boating-council-uscg-brochure-web.pdf
	

Required Safety Equipment
Personal watercraft have different equipment requirements than other types of motorized boats. In addition to wearing your lifejacket, you must carry:

a sound signaling device, such as a whistle
a daytime distress signal, such as a 3' x 3' orange flag 
an engine cutoff switch, with the safety lanyard attached to your person

Specialty Craft
You may encounter some new and unusual types of specialty watercraft, such as motorized surfboards and paddleboards, personal submarines, Jetpaks™, Jetlevs™, Flyboards™, and Jetovators. These are powered by 
	waterjet propulsion, so are subject to the same regulations as personal watercraft.
Planning Your Trip
Before you pack your bags and head out to sea, be certain to share your plans with a reliable and trusted person who will remain on land. The details of your voyage are often referred to as a a float plan.
In your float plan, include where you are planning to go, who is going on the trip, vessel information, when you plan to depart and return, and who to contact in an emergency. Be sure your emergency contact knows where to 
	find the details of your float plan.

Nonresident OHV Use Permits

About Nonresident OHV Use Permits
All vehicles operated off-highway on public lands in California are required to be (1) street-licensed or (2) registered as an off-highway vehicle (OHV). Purchase of a California Nonresident permit is required:

If you are visiting California from another state and your vehicle does not have a current registration from your home state, you must purchase a California Nonresident OHV Use Permit before you recreate on public lands.
If your state of residence requires residents of California, who have valid OHV registration/identification (green or red sticker registration), to purchase a non-resident permit to recreate in your home state (see Off-Highway Vehicle Information Bulletin 21-1) 
The Arizona street licensed OHVs are required to purchase a Nonresident Permit to recreate on public lands in California.

A title sticker or title plate is not registration.
