Permeation emissions are a component of diurnal emissions.(29) "SAE J1737" means Society of Automotive Engineers Test Procedure to Determine the Hydrocarbon Losses from Fuel Tubes, Hoses, Fittings, and Fuel Line Assemblies by Recirculation (May 2013), which is incorporated by reference herein.(30) "Sand Car" as defined in Cal. Code Regs., tit. 13, § 2411(a).(31) "Scheduled Maintenance" as defined in Cal. Code Regs., tit.13, § 2411(a).(32) "Small Volume Off-Highway Recreational Vehicle Manufacturer" means any off-highway recreational vehicle manufacturer with three-year average California sales less than or equal to a total of 50 new off-highway recreational vehicles per model year in California.(33) "Tampering" means removing, modifying, or disconnecting emissions-related parts, or, as it applies to emission control related labels, in a manner that voids equipment certification.(34) "Total Organic Gases" or "TOG" means all gases containing carbon, except carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, carbonic acid, metallic carbides or carbonates, and ammonium carbonate.(35) "TP-902" means "Test Procedure for Determining Diurnal Evaporative Emissions from Small Off-Road Engines and Equipment," adopted July 26, 2004, which is incorporated by reference herein.(36) "TP-933" means "Test Procedure for Determining Evaporative Emissions from Off-Highway Recreational Vehicles," adopted November 5, 2014, which is incorporated by reference herein.(37) "Vehicle or Engine Manufacturer" as defined in Cal.
