SUMMARY
As directed by the Board at the September 29, 1975 meeting, the
staff has; 1) evaluated the merits of direct and indirect test
methods, 2) evaluated the testimony given at the September
meeting, and 3) conducted a consultation meeting. The staff also
conducted additional testing on vapor recovery systems. As a
result of the above efforts, the staff revised the procedures
proposed on September 29, 1975 to:
a. require the development of baseline data from leak-free
vehicle testing results,
b. include a leak-test procedure, and
c. increase the system reliability period from 30 days to 90
days.
