Per Call Connection Fee
NYVIP UNIT MESSAGE No. 43 (2009)
12/24/2009
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. (Testcom) 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, 2009 the per-call connection
fee has increased to $0.368, from last year's fee of $0.366. The
new fee will be applied to calls made from December 1, 2009 through
November 30, 2010.
Neither NYS DMV nor
SGS Testcom have discretion in the per call connection fee amount
each year. The Contract between NYSDMV and Testcom requires a
recalculation of the fee each year based on the volume of calls
received in the prior year.
This 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. Emissions inspections (High
Enhanced, Low Enhanced and OBD II) make two calls per inspection.
If you have
questions, you may call the SGS Testcom 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.
