Manufacturers of marine engines
must determine the exhaust emission
levels for each engine horsepower
family and certify these engines with
the United States of America Environ-
mental Protection Agency (EPA). An
emissions control information label,
showing emission levels and engine
specifications, must be placed on
each Spark-Ignition Propulsion Marine
Engines (SIPME) at the time of
manufacture.

When performing service on a Sea--
Doo SIPME that carry an emissions
control information label, adjustments
must be kept within published factory
specifications.
Replacement or repair of any emis-
sion related component must be exe-
cuted in a manner that maintains
emission levels within the prescribed
certification standards.
Dealers are not to modify the engine
in any manner that would alter the
horsepower or allow emission levels
to exceed their predetermined factory
specifications.
Exceptions include
prescribed changes, such as altitude
adjustments for example.

The owner/operator is required to
have engine maintenance performed
to maintain emission levels within pre-
scribed certification standards.
The owner/operator is not to, and
should not allow anyone to modify the
engine in any manner that would alter
the horsepower or allow emissions
levels to exceed their predetermined
factory specifications.

Sea-Doo SIPME manufactured by
BRP are certified to the EPA as con-
forming to the requirements of the reg-
ulations for the control of air pollution
from new SIPME. This certification is
contingent on certain adjustments
being set to factory standards. For this
reason, the factory procedure for serv-
icing the product must be strictly fol-
lowed and, whenever practicable,
returned to the original intent of the
design.
The responsibilities listed above are
general and in no way a complete list-
ing of the rules and regulations per-
taining to the EPA requirements on
exhaust emissions for marine prod-
ucts. For more detailed information on

Spark-Ignition
(SIMW) sold in the State of California
are certified to the California evapora-
tive emissions regulations for SIMW of
the California Air Resources Board
(13 CCR 2850 to 2869). These mod-
els are equipped with an evaporative
emission control system consisting of
Low Permeation Fuel Tank (LPFT),
Low Permeation Fuel Line (LPFL) and
a Pressure Relief Valve (PRV).
