Title: Exclusion Determinations for
New Non-road Spark-Ignited Engines,
New Non-road Compression-Ignited
Engines and New On-Road Heavy Duty
Engines (Renewal).
ICR numbers: EPA ICR No. 1852.04,
OMB Control No. 2060–0395.
ICR Status: This ICR is scheduled to
expire on February 28, 2009. Under
OMB regulations, the Agency may
continue to conduct or sponsor the
collection of information while this
submission is pending at OMB. An
Agency may not conduct or sponsor,
and a person is not required to respond
to, a collection of information, unless it
displays a currently valid OMB control
number. The OMB control numbers for
EPA’s regulations in title 40 of the CFR,
after appearing in the Federal Register
when approved, are listed in 40 CFR
part 9, and are displayed either by
publication in the Federal Register or
by other appropriate means, such as on
the related collection instrument or
form, if applicable. The display of OMB
control numbers in certain EPA
regulations is consolidated in 40 CFR
part 9.
Abstract: Under the provisions of the
Clean Air Act (Act), the Administrator
is required to promulgate regulations to
control air pollutant emissions from
‘‘motor vehicles’’ and ‘‘non-road
engines,’’ as defined in the Act. Motor
vehicles and non-road engines not
meeting the applicable definitions are
excluded from compliance with current
regulations.
A manufacturer may make an
exclusion determination by itself;
however, manufacturers and importers
may routinely request EPA to make such
determination to ensure that their
determination does not differ from the
Agency’s. To request an exclusion
determination, manufacturers submit a
letter with a description of the engine
and/or vehicle (engine type, horsepower
rating, intended usage etc.) and sales
brochures to EPA. EPA uses this
information to determine whether the
engine or vehicle is excluded from
compliance with one or more emission
regulations. EPA then stores the data in
its internal files, and makes it available
to environmental groups and the public
upon request under the Freedom of
Information Act.
Burden Statement: The annual public
reporting and recordkeeping burden for
this collection of information is
estimated to average 6 hours per
response. Burden means the total time,
effort, or financial resources expended
by persons to generate, maintain, retain,
or disclose or provide information to or
for a Federal agency. This includes the
time needed to review instructions;

information, processing and

existing ways to comply with any
previously applicable instructions and
requirements which have subsequently
changed; train personnel to be able to
respond to a collection of information;
search data sources; complete and
review the collection of information;
and transmit or otherwise disclose the
information.
Respondents/Affected Entities: Light
Truck and Utility Vehicle
Manufacturers; Heavy Duty Truck
Manufacturers; Gasoline Engine and
Engine Parts Manufacturers;
Construction Machinery Manufacturers;
Industrial Truck, Tractor, Trailer, and
Stacker Machinery Manufacturers;
Marine Engine Manufacturers; Other
Engine Equipment Manufacturers.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
12.
Frequency of Response: Annual and
On Occasion.
Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden:
69.
Estimated Total Annual Cost: $6,254,
which includes $116 annualized capital
or O&M costs.
Changes in the Estimates: There is no
change in the total estimated burden
currently identified in the OMB
Inventory of Approved ICR Burdens.
