(1) Includes diskettes, photocopying, postage expenses, phone calls to procure locomotives, testing and the expense of stopping a locomotive for testing, annualized. See section 6(b)(iii) for details.
(2) Manufacturers must test one engine family per year. For new engine families, a minimum of two locomotives must be tested (but only one per carry-over family).
Engine families of less than 10 locomotives need not be tested. Sixteen of 30 new families have over 10 locomotives.
(3) Lab maintenance costs are not included here because they were accounted for in the certification burden table (Table 1).
