I saw that CARB issued rules this week regarding the offroad engine emissions.
Apparently there is a huge list of equipment that the federal government prevents California from applying their rules to, including "brush cutters" so you can expect that noisy gardener to start using a weed whacker with a an engine twice as large (> 40cc) as they are exempt. Stationary generators are also exempt. Anyone interested in a permanent mount kit for your Honda EU2000i?

What are the small off-road engine regulations? Small off-road engines (SORE) are spark-ignition engines with rated power at or below 19 kilowatts (25 horsepower).
