GENERAL CONDITIONS
Air Care Stations are required to adhere to the following general conditions relating to operating an Air
Care Station. In addition to the following conditions, all Air Care Stations shall also comply with all rules,
regulations, and instructions established by the Vehicle Pollution Management Division (VPMD) of the
Albuquerque Environmental Health Department.
1.0 CERTIFICATION REQUIREMENTS FOR AIR CARE STATIONS (20.11.100.21 NMAC):
1.A. No person shall solicit, advertise or imply that a facility is an air care station certified by the program
manager to conduct inspections pursuant to 20.11.100 NMAC without having a current program-
issued certificate on display on the premises. Any air care inspection station that has its certification
permanently or temporarily withdrawn or canceled by the board or the program manager shall
immediately remove all inspection related signs and cease to represent the facility as a certified air
care station.
1.B. No air care station owner or operator shall allow a person to conduct any part of an inspection
pursuant to 20.11.100 NMAC unless the person is an air care inspector certified by the program
manager and has a current program-issued certificate on display on the premises.
1.C. Any person may apply for certification to operate an air care station.
1.D. Before constructing, installing or renovating a facility or building intended for use as an air care
station, the owner or operator shall submit an application and receive pre-approval to operate the
facility as an air care station. The applicant shall also provide information on traffic flow and how it
will be managed to prevent unsafe conditions. The applicant shall also indicate how and where the
customer may view the vehicle inspection from start to finish.
1.E. The program manager may issue a station certificate to a person who applies and demonstrates to the
program manager’s satisfaction the following minimum conditions shall be in effect and equipment
shall be present at the applicant’s proposed air care station:
1) at least one certified air care inspector whose certification is current and listed with the program
manager shall be present and shall conduct all the inspections of motor vehicles; no inspection shall
be performed in whole or in part by any person who is not a certified air care inspector;
2) at least one approved emissions analyzer owned or leased by the station shall be in place and
operating within the equipment specification limits;
3) in order to qualify for certification, the facility shall also be equipped and supplied as follows:
a) sufficient hand tools and automotive diagnostic equipment for proper performance of the
inspections;
b) program approved span gas and compatible equipment for performing gas span checks;
c) suitable non-reactive tail pipe extenders or probe adapters for inspecting vehicles with screened
or baffled exhaust systems;
d) the approved emissions analyzer manufacturer’s maintenance and calibration manual; and
e) gas cap checking adaptors;
4) the air care station shall provide the vehicle owner or driver with access to the test area so that
observation of the entire official inspection process is possible; access may be limited, but in no
way shall prevent full observation of the entire official inspection process from start to finish; and
5) certified air care station owners or operators shall be responsible for the general management of
facility and the supervision of their air care inspectors in accordance with 20.11.100 NMAC.
1.F. “Emissions-inspection-only” stations may be authorized by the program manager. Emissions-
inspection-only stations shall indicate on a sign authorized by the program and placed in a readily
visible location that no emissions-related adjustments or repair services are available. Repair-related
requirements of Condition 2.Bo not apply to “inspection-only” stations.

2.0 PERFORMANCE OF CERTIFIED AIR CARE STATIONS (20.11.100.23 NMAC):
2.A. A certified air care station shall obtain and pay for routine and unscheduled maintenance and
replacement parts for the approved exhaust gas analyzer.
2.B. A certified air care station shall accept and perform emissions inspections on all vehicles presented
for inspection and shall have adequate reference manuals and basic emissions information. Emissions
inspections shall not be performed on vehicles if the emissions inspection would pose a threat to any
person’s safety. A motor vehicle shall not be accepted for repair unless the station has adequate
information regarding idle speed, idle mixture, timing, dwell, fast idle speed specifications, high
altitude specifications and information describing emissions control systems, diagnostic and repair
procedures, if normally available in the trade.
2.C. The times that a certified air care inspector will be available to conduct inspections shall be posted if
inspection times do not include all hours the station is open for business.
2.D. Each certified air care station shall post a sign in a conspicuous location, on the exterior of the
station, indicating testing hours and the fee charged for each inspection. The sign shall meet the
uniform format and style requirements established by the program manager.
2.E. A certified air care station shall not refuse any vehicle for inspection based upon the race, color,
religion, sex, national origin or ancestry, age or physical handicap or disability of the motorist, nor
may the station refuse any vehicle for inspection because of the make, model or year of the vehicle.
2.F. Each certified air care station shall provide vehicle owners or drivers access to the inspection area so
that the owner or driver can observe the official inspection. Access may be limited but in no way
shall prevent full observation.
2.G. A certified air care station shall perform initial emissions inspection on vehicles without repair or
adjustment prior to the inspection. This requirement shall not apply to a vehicle if an owner or driver
specifically asks for repairs or adjustments prior to an emissions inspection, without prior suggestion
or recommendation by the inspector or station owner or operator, and a work order is completed and
authorized by the vehicle owner or driver.
2.H. Each certified air care station shall employ a sufficient number of air care inspectors so the station
can adequately staff regular testing hours, as set by the air care station and approved by the program
manager.
2.I. Each air care station shall ensure that emissions inspections are performed on every vehicle, upon
presentation, unless a vehicle test poses a threat to a person’s safety. An air care station that is not
designated as an “inspection only” station may elect to conduct testing “by appointment only,” as
approved by the program manager, but shall indicate this on the station sign in lieu of posting the
testing hours.
2.J. A person who owns or operates a certified air care station that changes the business name,
ownership, official inspection personnel, or approved exhaust gas analyzers, or ceases to operate as an
air care station, shall notify the program manager in writing within 10 days of the change. A
certified air care station may have its certification revoked for failure to provide required notice.
Relocation of an air care station, without prior review and written approval of the program manager
as required, shall automatically terminate and invalidate a current station certificate.
