What? You can only go to an emission repair facility for emission repairs or the owner can perform them. That has always been the case. The state controls the rates that can be charged for the inspection program to a degree and obviously shops can charge their labor rates and part mark up. You also realize that the state did away with safety inspections due to abuse of re-inspections at the state lanes. See: Failing for oil change stickers due to visual impairment.
