Abstract: This supporting statement is a revision to EPA ICR Number 1684.08 which estimates the burden associated with emission certification, compliance, and in-use testing requirements affecting manufacturers of on-highway heavy-duty engines. EPA is proposing new requirements for on-highway heavy duty engine manufacturers to install on-board diagnostic (OBD) systems on these engines to monitor the performance of the emission control systems on these engines. These proposed requirements will necessitate some additional reporting and recordkeeping requirements.
