regant:o)we have EPA approval!!!

06/10/04:
The Air Resources Board (ARB) announces a Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) with the Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA's) Voluntary Diesel Retrofit Program for the Coordination of Diesel Retrofit Verification. This MOA establishes reciprocity in verifications of hardware or device-based retrofits. It further establishes ARB's and EPA's commitment to cooperate on the evaluation of other retrofit technologies, including fuel-based strategies. The agreement commits ARB and EPA to work toward accepting particulate matter (PM) and oxides of nitrogen (NOx) verification levels assigned by the other's verification programs. Additionally, as retrofit manufacturers initiate and conduct in-use testing, ARB and EPA agree to coordinate this testing so data generated may satisfy the requirements of each program. This MOA is intended to expedite the verification and introduction of innovative emission reduction technologies. Additionally, this MOA should reduce the effort needed for retrofit technology manufacturers to complete verification. In the near future ARB and EPA will provide further guidance on how this agreement will be implemented.

Price preceeds news. Watch the stock price, the certifications,the orders, the production, the shipments, the profits and the expansion. The Kyoto Accord is an International program headed up in Japan to clean up the environement for the air we breath worldwide. In its final stages of being approved. Yes its been a long time coming but should be well worth the wait for all involved. This clean air policy will gain legislative approvals worldwide. I am sure happy to be on the ground floor before the news becomes common knowledge.. Certifications in the automotive industry were far more involved then most of us realized. The fact that this company stayed the course speaks highly of our future growth which is underway on two fronts..
