I live in NC and we had our cars inspected in May. Today we got a letter from the Department of Transportation, State of NC DMV. Here is what it says.
Dear North Carolina Motorist,
As the number of motor vehicles on our roads increase,we need your assistance in maintaining the highest level of air quality in our state. The Federal Clean Air Act of 1990 requires North Carolina to conduct an annual emissions and safety inspection of all gasoline-powered vehicles registered in an emissions county.
This letter is to remind you that the vehicles listed was due for the annual emission inspection by 5/31/08. In order to comply with state regulations, the vehicle should receive a passing emissions inspection by 10/01/2008. Failure to do so will result in a civil penalty up to 50.00 and a temporary block in our renewal system until the matter is resolved..
We had the cars inspected in the county that we live. I am trying to understand what did we do wrong. I have call the number but busy??
