NYVIP UNIT MESSAGE No

NYVIP UNIT MESSAGE No. 14 (2006)

12/19/2006

TO: All INSPECTION STATIONS

FROM: SGS TESTCOM

SUBJECT: PER-CALL CONNECTION FEE

Under contract with the New York State Department of Motor Vehicles (NYSDMV), SGS Testcom Inc. is the provider of NYVIP equipment and information management for the New York Vehicle Inspection Program (NYVIP). Your inspection station has a contract with SGS Testcom for those services.

This message is to inform you that effective December 1, 2006, the per-call connection fee will decrease to $0.338, from $0.365, a net decrease of 2.7 cents per call. The new reduced fee will be reflected in your January 2007 bill.

This connection fee is for each phone call your NYVIP unit makes for an inspection. Safety inspections, including Heavy Duty, Trailer and Motorcycle inspections make one phone call. Low Enhanced and OBD II emissions inspections make two calls per inspection.

If you have questions, you may call the Help Desk at 1-866-469-8477


These are messages sent by NYS DMV to the inspection stations via the emissions analyzer units. They frequently contain important information, usage tips, or announcements of system changes.
