The Small Off-Road Engine (SORE) Working Group will hold its next meeting via conference call on July 12, 2016, at 11:00 AM PDT. The agenda for the meeting is as follows: 1. Introductions and roll call 2. Accounting for additional sources of emissions in the design certification method 3. Suggestions for modifications to May 2016 ARB draft proposal for amendments to the SORE evaporative emissions regulation 4. 2014-2015 validation study results 5. Additional items/future meetings Suggestions for additional agenda items may be sent to Angus MacPherson at angus.macpherson@arb.ca.gov or Christopher Dilbeck at christopher.dilbeck@arb.ca.gov. To participate in the meeting, use one of the following phone numbers and the participant passcode: USA Phone number: (800) 779-9111 Phone number for international callers: 1 (312) 470-7275 Participant passcode: 8973817 Background: The primary purpose of the working group is to discuss emissions mitigation opportunities related to small off-road engines (SORE). The high noncompliance rate and high average emissions of design-certified equipment in the validation study have highlighted the need to capture all sources of evaporative emissions in the design certification method. Working group member suggestions for ways to limit emissions from currently unquantified emission sources such as carburetors and connections will help to ensure design-certified equipment will comply with diurnal emission standards.
