The license classes represented here are Smog Station - Test & Repair (38), Smog Station - Test Only (1). The class is the source's own wording, not a label applied here.

This list publishes no phone numbers, so no listing drawn from it shows one. That is how the source publishes it, not a gap in this record.

The map positions were derived from the published street address through the US Census Bureau geocoder. No distance claim is made anywhere in this text; the "nearest to me" list computes straight-line distances in your own browser from your own location.

1 of the 39 entry could not be placed on a map: the register gives a PO box, a bare route number or a road junction rather than a street address, and 1 of those is currently on the register. They are listed and searchable here by name, city and county, and left out of the map and the "nearest to me" results. Guessing a plausible position for a PO box would be worse than admitting there is not one.

Salinas, California ranks 23rd of the 587 cities covered in this category, holding 1% of the listings, ahead of 564 others.

Every record on this page comes from Public licensee list (Automotive Repair), published by California Bureau of Automotive Repair on dca.ca.gov as dataset AutomotiveRepair_1310. Each card carries the date the record was last re-checked.
