E9–17777 Filed 7–24–09; 8:45 am] BILLING CODE 4910–RY–P DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Privacy Act of 1974; System of Records Notice AGENCY: National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), Department of Transportation (DOT). ACTION: Notice to establish a system of records. SUMMARY: NHTSA intends to establish a system of records under the Privacy Act of 1974 as part of its Consumer Assistance to Recycle and Save program (CARS program), which implements the Consumer Assistance to Recycle and Save Act of 2009 (CARS Act). The system of records will contain personally identifiable information (PII) about individual car purchasers/lessees and may contain PII about a limited number of sole proprietor automobile salvage auctions and disposal facilities participating in the CARS Program, which is a temporary program covering eligible automobile purchases/leases occurring between July 1, 2009 and November 1, 2009. The system of PO 00000 Frm 00091 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 37087 records is more thoroughly detailed below and in the Privacy Impact Assessment (PIA) that NHTSA will include in the docket for the CARS final rule at https://www.regulations.gov, being published in the Federal Register on or about July 24, 2009 and on the DOT Privacy Web site at https:// www.dot.gov/privacy. DATES: Effective July 24, 2009. The CARS Act requires the Secretary of Transportation, acting through NHTSA, to issue final regulations within 30 days after enactment (i.e., by July 24, 2009), ‘‘notwithstanding’’ the notice and comment requirements of the Administrative Procedure Act (5 U.S.C. 553). NHTSA established a Web site to convey information about the program and a hotline to answer questions about the program. On July 2, 2009, NHTSA published a document in the Federal Register (74 FR 31812) providing additional useful information, in advance of issuance of its final rule. NHTSA could not finalize its System of Records Notice (SORN) prior to completion of the CARS final rule, so this SORN is being published today, concurrent with the final rule. Due to the extremely short time afforded by the CARS Act to develop and complete the CARS rulemaking and implement this 4month program, NHTSA was precluded from publishing its rule for notice and comment. It found for good cause that providing notice and comment on the final rule would be impracticable and contrary to the public interest. For the same reason, NHTSA must begin operating the CARS program system of records on or about July 24, 2009, prior to completion of a 30-day public notice and comment period under this SORN. NHTSA nonetheless seeks and will accept public comment on this SORN for a 30-day period. Because our ability to consider comments received may be limited, we encourage the earliest possible submission of comments. If feasible, we may publish an amended SORN in light of any comments received. ADDRESSES: Send comments to Dee Smith, NHTSA Privacy Officer, NHTSA Office of the CIO, NPO–420, U.S. Department of Transportation, 1200 New Jersey Avenue, SE., Washington, DC 20590 or dee.smith@dot.gov. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: For privacy issues please contact: Dee Smith, NHTSA Privacy Officer, NHTSA Office of the CIO, NPO–420, U.S. Department of Transportation, 1200 New Jersey Avenue, SE., Washington, DC 20590 or dee.smith@dot.gov.
