other tasks related to the development and implementation 

 of inspection/maintenance. 



11. Although inspection/maintenance should reduce carbon monoxide 

 air pollution in one specific county (Mecklenburg) , this 

 program is advocated and specifically required by the federal 

 government. Therefore, any supportive or supplemental funds 

 should be either federal or State funds rather than local 

 funds. This recommendation does not preclude the participation 

 of local agencies in the implementation of inspection/maintenanc 

 but rather it encourages such participation so long as a 

 significant allocation of local funds would not be required. 



12. Legislation is necessary to implement and fund the inspection/ 

 maintenance program recommended by the Commission. The 

 legislation is needed this year to provide the necessary lead- 

 in program prior to the deadline for the mandatory phase of 

 the program.
