Upcoming Workshop for Spark-Ignition Marine Engines and Boats.

On March 18, 2008, ARB will host a public workshop to discuss
proposed amendments to California’s emissions regulations and
test procedures for new spark-ignition marine engines including
personal watercraft, outboard engines, sterndrive and inboard
engines, and the boats that use them.  Specifically, the
discussion will focus on alternative standards for High
Performance sterndrive engines (i.e., those with rated power
greater than 373 kilowatts), carbon monoxide standards,
evaporative control requirements, relief provisions,
requirements for new replacement engines, and other minor
changes.  A notice summarizing the topics to be discussed at the
workshop and providing scheduling information may be found at
