SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
SUMMARY:
National Highway Traffic Safety
Administration
Title: Vehicle Information for the
General Public.
OMB Number: 2127–0629.
Type of Request: Regular.
Abstract: NHTSA’s mission is to save
lives, prevent injury, and reduce motor
vehicle crashes. Providing consumer
information on vehicle safety is an
important means of improving vehicle
safety through market forces. NHTSA
provides consumers with vehicle safety
information such as front and side crash
results, rollover propensity, and the
availability of a wide array of safety
features provided on each vehicle
model. NHTSA also uses this safety
feature information when responding to
public inquiries and analyzing
rulemaking petitions which ask the
agency to mandate certain safety
features.

The agency has attempted to
coordinate and reduce the reporting
burden associated with this information
collection. Another information
collection obtains data related to motor
vehicle compliance with the agency’s
Federal motor vehicle safety standards.
Although the consumer information
collection data is distinct and unique
from the compliance data, respondents
to both collections are the same.
Consequently, the consumer
information collection is closely
coordinated with the compliance
collection to enable responders to
assemble the data most efficiently. The
burden is further made easier by
sending electronic files to the
respondents in which the data is
entered and electronically returned to
the agency.
The consumer information collected
is used on the agency’s https://
www.safercar.gov Web site, in the
‘‘Buying a Safer Car’’ and ‘‘Buying a
Safer Car for Child Passengers’’
brochures, in other consumer
publications, as well as for internal
agency analyses and responses to
consumer inquiries.
Affected Public: Manufacturers that
sell motor vehicles in the United States
under 10,000 lbs of Gross Vehicle
Weight Rating.
Estimated Total Annual Burden: 924
hours.
ADDRESSES: Send comments, within
30 days, to the Office of Information and
Regulatory Affairs, Office of
Management and Budget, 725–17th
Street, NW., Washington, DC 20503,
Attention: NHTSA Desk Officer.
Comments are invited on: Whether
the proposed collection of information
is necessary for the proper performance
of the functions of the Department,
including whether the information will
have practical utility; the accuracy of
the Department’s estimate of the burden
of the proposed information collection;
ways to enhance the quality, utility and
clarity of the information to be
collected; and ways to minimize the
burden of the collection of information
on respondents, including the use of
automated collection techniques or
other forms of information technology.
A Comment to OMB is most effective if
OMB receives it within 30 days of
publication.
Issued in Washington, DC, on May 1, 2009.

Abstract: 49 U.S.C. 30111 authorizes

of motor vehicle or item of motor
vehicle equipment for which it is
prescribed,’’ and whether such a
standard will contribute to carrying out
the purpose of the Act. The Secretary is
authorized to invoke such rules and
regulations as deemed necessary to
carry out these requirements. Using this
authority, the agency issued FMVSS No.
208, ‘‘Occupant crash protection,’’ to aid
the agency in achieving many of its
safety goals. This notice requests

Clarksville, in Nottoway, Lunenburg,
Charlotte and Mecklenberg Counties,
VA.
NSR and BB have reached an
agreement under which BB will lease
and operate the Keysville Line. BB will
accept transfer and/or assignment of
NCVA’s common carrier obligations.
BB certifies that its projected annual
revenue as a result of this transaction
will not result in the creation of a Class
II or Class I rail carrier. However,
because its projected annual revenues
will exceed $5 million, BB also certifies
that it has complied with the notice
requirements of 49 CFR 1150.42(e).
The transaction is expected to be
consummated on or after May 23, 2009,
60 days after BB’s certification of the
notice requirements of section
1150.42(e).
If the notice contains false or
misleading information, the exemption
is void ab initio. Petitions to revoke the
exemption under 49 U.S.C. 10502(d)
may be filed at any time. The filing of
a petition to revoke does not
automatically stay the transaction.
Petitions for stay must be filed no later
than May 15, 2009 (at least 7 days before
the exemption becomes effective).
Pursuant to the Consolidated
Appropriations Act, 2008, Public Law
No. 110–161, § 193, 121 Stat. 1844
(2007), nothing in this decision
authorizes the following activities at any
solid waste rail transfer facility:
collecting, storing or transferring solid
waste outside of its original shipping
container; or separating or processing
solid waste (including baling, crushing,
compacting and shredding). The term
‘‘solid waste’’ is defined in section 1004
of the Solid Waste Disposal Act, 42
U.S.C. 6903.
An original and 10 copies of all
pleadings, referring to STB Finance
Docket No. 35226, must be filed with
the Surface Transportation Board, 395 E
Street, SW., Washington, DC 20423–
0001. In addition, a copy of each
pleading must be served on Keith G.
