HB 1873 requires Missouri's Air Conservation Commission to terminate the state's motor vehicle emissions inspection program by January 1, 2028, as established under the Air Quality Attainment Act. The bill repeals existing laws governing emissions inspections and replaces them with new sections focused on vehicle license renewal and fleet registration. This change eliminates the requirement for emissions inspections during vehicle registration, directly affecting vehicle owners who would have been subject to these inspections. The bill terminates the program without establishing a new emissions inspection system.
