Op. Atty. Gen. No. 331, Shell (11-15-71).
The state of Missouri has the authority to
inspect for “air pollution control devices”
which may be installed on motor vehicles as
a requirement to comply with applicable
emission regulations, but whether the regulations and inspections would accomplish the
purpose of “enforcing compliance with applicable emission standards” which are federal
standards, and whether the preemption provision of 42 U.S.C.A., Section 1857f-6a, has
been complied with are questions that only
the appropriate federal officials can answer.
