in plain englishAI-generated · not legal advice

The Administrator can give state agencies grants covering up to two-thirds of vehicle emission program costs. Grants can't fund unrelated parts of a program, and Transportation must confirm it fits highway safety rules. The program must also keep emission controls from being disabled, and grants can reimburse past costs.

The Administrator can give grants to appropriate state agencies, covering up to two-thirds of the cost of developing and running effective vehicle emission-device and system inspection and testing programs, except that: (1) no grant can cover any part of a state's vehicle inspection program that doesn't directly relate to the air-pollution-control cost; (2) no grant can be made unless the Secretary of Transportation certifies to the Administrator that the program fits with any highway safety program under section 402 of title 23; and (3) no grant can be made unless the program includes provisions to make sure vehicles' emission control devices and systems, once in actual use, haven't been disconnected or disabled. Grants under this section can reimburse a state for amounts it already spent before the grant was made.

The Administrator is authorized to make grants to appropriate State agencies in an amount up to two-thirds of the cost of developing and maintaining effective vehicle emission devices and systems inspection and emission testing and control programs, except that—

(1)

no such grant shall be made for any part of any State vehicle inspection program which does not directly relate to the cost of the air pollution control aspects of such a program;

(2)

no such grant shall be made unless the Secretary of Transportation has certified to the Administrator that such program is consistent with any highway safety program developed pursuant to section 402 of title 23; and

(3)

no such grant shall be made unless the program includes provisions designed to insure that emission control devices and systems on vehicles in actual use have not been discontinued or rendered inoperative.

Grants may be made under this section by way of reimbursement in any case in which amounts have been expended by the State before the date on which any such grant was made.
