Car pollution inspections set to start in Ohio counties
State officials proceed with auto pollution control inspections on January 1 in Lorain, Cuyahoga and three other counties despite a push to delay. Ten stations in Lorain and eleven in western Cuyahoga certified to test vehicles. Federal sanctions fears loom from 1982 ozone violations, while Congress delays those sanctions to Sept 1, 1988 as a bill to pause the program advances. Ohio lawmakers ask Celeste to hold mandating tests until more stations are ready.
