Pipeline Safety: Information Collection Activities, 3738-3739 [2015-01152]

Download as PDF tkelley on DSK3SPTVN1PROD with NOTICES 3738 Federal Register / Vol. 80, No. 15 / Friday, January 23, 2015 / Notices ‘‘Laminated’’. The noncompliance is limited to laminated glass panes, other than windscreens, to be used in the cabs of approximately twenty mining vehicles manufactured by Atlas Copco in Australia. NHTSA believes that the subject labeling errors are inconsequential to motor vehicle safety because; the marking of glazing as ‘‘Tempered’’ or ‘‘Laminated’’ is not required by FMVSS No. 205, the probability of anyone in the United States obtaining the subject incorrectly marked glazing as replacement glazing is very unlikely since the affected glazing is specifically designed for use in mining vehicles manufactured by Atlas Copco in Australia. In addition, there is no concern that the wrong model number on the subject glazing would result in an incorrect replacement part being used because replacement parts are ordered by referring to the glazing part number or by identifying the vehicle for which the replacement glazing is intended. Custom Glass is the only glazing supplier for the vehicles and any replacement glazing acquired from Custom Glass in the future is expected to be marked correctly, and the subject glazing appears to comply with all other applicable requirements of FMVSS No. 205. NHTSA Decision: In consideration of the foregoing, NHTSA has decided that Custom Glass has met its burden of persuasion that the FMVSS No. 205 noncompliance is inconsequential to motor vehicle safety. Accordingly, Custom Glass’s petition is hereby granted and Custom Glass is exempted from the obligation of providing notification of, and a remedy for, that noncompliance under 49 U.S.C. 30118 and 30120. NHTSA notes that the statutory provisions (49 U.S.C. 30118(d) and 30120(h)) that permit manufacturers to file petitions for a determination of inconsequentiality allow NHTSA to exempt manufacturers only from the duties found in sections 30118 and 30120, respectively, to notify owners, purchasers, and dealers of a defect or noncompliance and to remedy the defect or noncompliance. Therefore, this decision only applies to the subject laminated glass parts that Custom Glass no longer controlled at the time it determined that the noncompliance existed. However, the granting of this petition does not relieve equipment distributors and dealers of the prohibitions on the sale, offer for sale, or introduction or delivery for introduction into interstate commerce of the noncompliant motor laminated glass parts under their control after Custom VerDate Sep<11>2014 18:05 Jan 22, 2015 Jkt 235001 Glass notified them that the subject noncompliance existed. Authority: (49 U.S.C. 30118, 30120: delegations of authority at 49 CFR 1.95 and 501.8) Jeffrey M. Giuseppe, Acting Director, Office of Vehicle Safety Compliance.
