Maryland Senate extends VEIP tests and broadens fee plan
The Maryland Senate approved extending the Vehicle Emission Inspection Program through 1995 and shifting costs statewide via an added emissions surcharge on vehicle registrations. The bill expands testing to every two years and adds three checks including catalytic converter integrity and fuel filler neck tamper tests, with a $9/$5/$3 regional surcharge structure and broader vehicle eligibility up to 20 years. The measure passed 33 to 12 amid debates over tax impacts and regional equity.
