Maryland

In partnership with the Maryland Motor Vehicle Administration (MVA), ESP has managed and operated a vehicle emissions inspection program in Maryland since 1984. In 2009, the Maryland Vehicle Emissions Inspection Program (VEIP) transitioned to a new program design. ESP inspects more than 1.6 million vehicles annually at 18 testing stations in 14 counties statewide utilizing on-board diagnostics (OBDII), idle emissions, and gas cap pressure testing technology.

Innovative Technology

To complement our robust testing equipment,
ESP has integrated the use of a new tool across
many of our programs to ensure accuracy in our
testing lanes. ESP’s proprietary OBD CommCheck
Tester (pictured) is used actively in our testing
lanes to verify the integrity of our equipment.

Community relations

ESP in Maryland has established scholarship funds at Morgan State University in Baltimore and the University of Maryland in Baltimore County.  Collectively, these scholarships are approaching a million dollars in value and are managed to provide financial assistance to minority and underprivileged undergraduate candidates pursuing engineering and business curriculum.

ESP supports many other Baltimore-based charities and associations, including the Pimlico Road Youth Program, Outward Bound, The National Great Blacks in Wax Museum, The National Kidney Foundation of Maryland, The Scleroderma Foundation of Maryland, Druid Hill YMCA, Bon Secours, The American Lung Association, and The National Center for Children and Families.
