EPA targets catalytic converter removal amid pollution concerns
The EPA warns of rising tampering with catalytic converters to boost fuel economy or performance. Spot checks show 20 percent of cars with altered pollution controls and 8 percent with converters removed. Civil fines totaling 327500 are sought from four muffler shops and a cab company, including a $120000 penalty for Lew Smith's Muffler and Parts in Covington Kentucky after 48 converters were found removed.
