Series 840300 TWC will be used for a single (1 unit) close—coupled catalytic converter system application for the selected Honda PC having engine codes D16Y5 and D16Y7. The catalytic converter will be sold as a direct fit system. WHEREAS, pursuant to the authority vested in the Executive Officer by Health and Safety Code Section 39515 and in the Chief, Mobile Source Operations Division by Health and Safety Code Section 39516 and Executive Order G—02—003, the Air Resources Board finds that the above aftermarket catalytic converter complies with the California Vehicle Code Sections 27156 and 38395 and Title 13, California Code of Regulations, Section 2222(h). Emission performance of the catalytic converter was based on durability bench—aging by Umicore Autocat USA Inc. using the Air Resources Board—modified RAT—A bench—aging cycle for 75 hours, as specified in Appendix A to the "California Evaluation Procedures for New Aftermarket Catalytic Converters" as adopted on October 25, 2007. WHEREAS, emissions tests conducted at Automotive Testing and Development Services, Inc., Ontario, California, using a 2000 1.6L Honda Civic, test group YHNXVO1.6CA3, certified to the passenger car and Low Emission Vehicle emission standards (PC, LEV), showed that the vehicle met the applicable emission standards with Series 840300 TWC (1 unit) installed. OBD |I compatibility tests performed on the same test vehicle showed that Series 840300 TWC did not affect the vehicle‘s ability to perform OBD II system monitoring. The following are the test results in grams per mile: NMOG CO NOx 100K Standards 0.090 4.2 0.3 Series 840300 Test 1 0.077 1.2 0.2 Series 840300 Test 2 0.083 1.8 0.2

2. WHEREAS, evaluation of Series 840300 TWC using the procedures and criteria specified in Section (5)(B) of the "California Evaluation Procedures for New Aftermarket Catalytic Converters" as adopted on October 25, 2007, showed that the catalytic converter meets the requirements for proper MIL itlumination demonstration.
