H.R. 724
A bill to amend the Clean Air Act to remove the requirement for dealer
certification of new light-duty motor vehicles
As ordered reported by the House Committee on Energy and Commerce
on December 11, 2013
H.R. 724 would repeal a requirement under the Clean Air Act (CAA) that automobile
dealers provide purchasers of new light-duty motor vehicles with a certificate that indicates
the vehicle conforms to federal emissions standards. The certificate also indicates the
purchaser's right to have the manufacturer fix the vehicle if it does not comply with
emission standards.
According to the Environmental Protection Agency, other provisions under the CAA
ensure that all new vehicles offered for sale comply with the Act. Thus, CBO estimates that
repealing this requirement would have no impact on the federal budget. Enacting H.R. 724
would not affect direct spending or revenues; therefore, pay-as-you-go procedures do not
apply.
H.R. 724 contains no intergovernmental or private-sector mandates as defined in the
Unfunded Mandates Reform Act and would impose no costs on state, local, or tribal
governments.
The CBO staff contact for this estimate is Susanne S. Mehlman. The estimate was
approved by Theresa Gullo, Deputy Assistant Director for Budget Analysis.
