If an inspector inputs an incorrect emissions sticker number, what is the correct procedure?

When an inspector inputs an incorrect emissions sticker number, the proper procedure is to utilize the replacement menu to correct the entry. This approach ensures that the records are updated accurately and maintains the integrity of the emissions data. By using the replacement menu, the inspector can officially replace the incorrect number with the correct one, ensuring that all data reflects the accurate information required for compliance and tracking.

Correcting the error using the replacement menu helps avoid confusion and potential issues that can arise from having discrepancies in emissions reporting. This method follows best practices in emissions monitoring and record-keeping, which is essential for maintaining regulatory compliance.

Entering the correct sticker number directly or leaving the incorrect number as is would not address the underlying error in the system, while re-entering the incorrect number further compounds the issue and does not appropriately resolve the mistake. Therefore, utilizing the replacement menu is the most accurate and compliant method in this scenario.
