Current through Register Vol. 39, No. 9, November 1, 2024

Section 02D .2608 - NUMBER OF RUNS AND COMPLIANCE DETERMINATION

Each test, excluding fuel sample tests, shall consist of three consecutive runs of the applicable test method at the same operating condition. If other operating conditions or scenarios are to be tested, then three consecutive runs shall be performed for each of these operating conditions or scenarios. For determining compliance with an applicable emission standard, the average of the results of all repetitions shall apply. On a case-by-case basis, compliance may be determined using the arithmetic average of two run results if the Director determines that an unavoidable and unforeseeable event happened beyond the owner's, operator's, or tester's control and that a third run could not be completed.
