Actually we are getting rid of e-tests starting with the colorado springs/ fort collins areas next summer and the denver area drops in 2 years. No more $25.00 graft payments every 2 years to tell me my cars working perfectly.
They have finally admitted that denver is in a big natural bowl and car testing is haveing little to no affect in how the smog gets heavy here sometimes.

Emissions Inspections Now Required Annually at the Time of Safety Inspection
HARRISBURG, Pa., Jan. 30 -- Beginning Feb. 1, the Pennsylvania Departments of Transportation and Environmental Protection will implement federally mandated vehicle emissions inspections in Blair, Cambria and Centre counties for most gasoline-powered vehicles from 1975 and newer.
The testing program will bring Pennsylvania into compliance with federal air-quality standards.
More than 93,000 vehicles in Blair County, 110,000 vehicles in Cambria County and 83,000 vehicles in Centre County will be subject to the emissions inspection. Emissions inspections will be required once a year during the time of the annual safety inspection.
"Not all vehicles will be required to pass an emissions inspection this month because expirations of safety inspections are spread out over a 12-month period," said Kurt Myers, PennDOT's Director of the Bureau of Motor Vehicles. "For example, motorists can get a vehicle inspected up to three months prior to the expiration of a safety inspection, and many customers may have already taken their vehicle for its safety inspection prior to today. In that case, those vehicles won't need an emissions inspection until the current safety inspection expires."
Emissions inspections can be done at any participating private garage or dealer that is certified to perform emissions inspections. Fees are market driven.
Exemptions are determined by a certified emissions inspector. Vehicles are excluded from the program if the vehicle is registered as a street rod, classic, collectible, antique or specially constructed vehicle or motorcycle.
Motorists will receive a computer-generated report that lists inspection results. A computer-generated report for a vehicle that fails will also include information regarding the cause of the failure. Passing vehicles will have an emissions sticker affixed to the windshield.
If a vehicle doesn't pass the emissions inspection, the vehicle owner must make emissions-related repairs. Once repairs are made, the vehicle can be re- inspected for free, within 30 calendar days, at the station that initially conducted the inspection. If an owner waits longer than 30 days, or takes the vehicle to a different emissions inspection station, re-inspection is not free.

He's really gonna need a real sympethetic ear when he takes that in, carved up newer stuff didn't qualify here. Here you only have 10 days to get it fixed before you have to pay for another test.
WTH do they mean the fee's are "market driven?", here it's $24.25 for a test.
