[FR Doc. 05–547 Filed 1–11–05; 8:45 am] BILLING CODE 4910–15–P NATIONAL AERONAUTICS AND SPACE ADMINISTRATION 48 CFR Parts 1835 and 1852 RIN 2700–AD04 Final Scientific and Technical Reports—SBIR and STTR Contracts National Aeronautics and Space Administration. ACTION: Final rule. AGENCY: SUMMARY: This rule adopts as final without change the proposed rule published in the Federal Register on August 12, 2004. This final rule amends the NASA FAR Supplement (NFS) by adding an Alternate III to the ‘‘Final Scientific and Technical Reports’’ clause for use in contracts awarded under the Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) and the Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) programs. This change is required to recognize the ‘‘Rights in Data—SBIR Programs’’ clause rather than the FAR ‘‘Rights in Data— General’’ clause currently referenced in the NFS ‘‘Final Scientific and Technical Reports’’ clause. DATES: Effective Date: This rule is effective January 12, 2005. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Celeste Dalton, NASA, Office of Procurement, Contract Management Division; (202) 358–1645; e-mail: Celeste.M.Dalton@nasa.gov. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: address the contractor’s rights in data as defined in FAR 52.227–14, Rights in Data—General. Contractor rights in data under SBIR and STTR contracts are defined in FAR clause 52.227–20, Rights in Data—SBIR Program. This change adds an Alternate III to 1852.235–73 for use in SBIR and STTR contracts that references FAR 52.227–20 to recognize contractor data rights under SBIR and STTR contracts. NASA published a proposed rule in the Federal Register on August 12, 2004 (69 FR 49845). No comments were received. The proposed rule is being adopted as final without change. This is not a significant regulatory action and, therefore, was not subject to review under section 6(b) of Executive Order 12866, Regulatory Planning and Review, dated September 30, 1993. This rule is not a major rule under 5 U.S.C. 804. B. Regulatory Flexibility Act NASA certifies that this final rule does not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities with the meaning of the Regulatory Flexibility Act, 5 U.S.C. 601 et seq., because it only clarifies what the appropriate data rights clause is used under SBIR and STTR contracts. C. Paperwork Reduction Act The Paperwork Reduction Act does not apply because the changes do not impose recordkeeping or information collection requirements which require the approval of the Office of Management and Budget under 44 U.S.C. 3501, et seq. List of Subjects in 48 CFR Parts 1835 and 1852 Jkt 205001 3. Amend section 1852.235–73 by revising the date of the clause to read ‘‘(JAN 2005)’’ in the first sentence of paragraph (b), removing ‘‘NPG’’ and adding ‘‘NPR’’ in its place; and adding Alternate III to read as follows: I 1852.235–73 Reports. * * * Final Scientific and Technical * * Alternate III (Jan 2005) As prescribed by 1835.070(d)(3), insert the following as paragraph (e) of the basic clause: (e) The Contractor’s rights in data are defined in FAR 52.227–20, Rights In Data— SBIR Program. The Contractor may publish, or otherwise disseminate, such data without prior review by NASA. The Contractor is responsible for reviewing publication or dissemination of the data for conformance with laws and regulations governing its distribution, including intellectual property rights, export control, national security and other requirements, and to the extent the Contractor receives or is given access to data necessary for the performance of the contract which contain restrictive markings, for complying with such restrictive markings. In the event the Contractor has established its claim to copyright data produced under this contract and has affixed a copyright notice and acknowledgement of Government sponsorship, or has affixed the SBIR Rights Notice contained in paragraph (d) of FAR 52.227–20, the Government shall comply with such Notices.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Background

    On July 10, 2002, NHTSA published a final rule implementing the 
early warning reporting (EWR) provisions of the Transportation Recall 
Enhancement, Accountability, and Documentation (TREAD) Act, 49 U.S.C. 
30166(m). 67 FR 45822. The agency has adopted a number of amendments to 
that rule. As of October 1, 2003, 49 CFR 579.28(b) Due date of reports 
read as follows:

    Except as provided in paragraph (n) of this section, each 
manufacturer of motor vehicles and motor vehicle equipment shall 
submit each report that is required by this subpart not later than 
30 days after the last day of the reporting period. Notwithstanding 
the prior sentence, the due date for reports covering the third and 
fourth calendar quarter of 2003 and the first calendar quarter of 
2004 shall be 60 days after the last day of the reporting period. 
Except as provided in Sec.  579.27(b), if a manufacturer has not 
received any of the categories of information or documents during a 
quarter for which it is required to report pursuant to Sec. Sec.  
579.21 through 579.26, the manufacturer's report must indicate that 
no relevant information or documents were received during that 
quarter. If the due date for any report is a Saturday, Sunday or a 
Federal holiday, the report shall be due on the next business day.

A September 28, 2004 notice amended the first two sentences of Sec.  
579.28(b) by extending the due date by which quarterly reports are to 
be submitted to the agency from 30 days to 60 days following the end of 
a calendar quarter and changing the date by which copies of non-dealer 
field reports were to be submitted from 30 days after the quarterly 
reports were due to 15 days after those reports are due. 69 FR 57867. 
After publishing the September 28th notice, we learned that we had 
inadvertently deleted the last two sentences of section 579.28(b). We 
had not intended to delete this language.
    Today's amendment corrects this error by re-inserting the last 2 
sentences of Sec.  579.28(b). In particular, the language is:

    Except as provided in Sec.  579.27(b), if a manufacturer has not 
received any of the categories of information or documents during a 
quarter for which it is required to report pursuant to Sec. Sec.  
579.21 through 579.26, the manufacturer's report must indicate that 
no relevant information or documents were received during that 
quarter. If the due date for any report is a Saturday, Sunday or a 
Federal holiday, the report shall be due on the next business day.
