line-of-sight distance from the
measurement antenna to the overhead
line. Alternatively, a site-specific
extrapolation factor may be used in lieu
of the 30 dB/decade standard. This
extrapolation factor shall be derived
from a best fit straight line fit
determined by a first-order regression
calculation from measurements for at
least four lateral distances from the
overhead line. Compliance
measurements for Access BPL and use
of site-specific extrapolation factors
shall be made in accordance with the
Guidelines for Access BPL systems
specified by the Commission.

SUMMARY: This document responds to a
petition for rulemaking regarding the
Federal motor vehicle safety standard
for lighting. The Groupe de Travail
‘‘Bruxelles 1952’’ (GTB) and the Society
of Automotive Engineers (SAE) Lighting
Committee requested that new
specifications be added for optional
lower beam and upper beam headlamp
patterns on the basis they would
increase harmonization with European
requirements. After completing a
technical review of the petition, NHTSA
is denying this petition. The agency
notes the petitioners did not provide
data to demonstrate that the requested
new optional specifications would
provide safety benefits comparable to
those of the existing standard or that
cost savings would be realized without
compromising safety. Additionally,
NHTSA is pursuing a more
comprehensive review of the lighting
standard and is currently studying the
feasibility of many issues and potential
regulatory changes, some of which
would address issues raised in this
petition.

I. The Petition
On July 21, 2004, the SAE Lighting
Committee and GTB petitioned the
agency to add new specifications to
Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard
(FMVSS) No. 108; Lamps, reflective
devices, and associated equipment, for
optional upper and lower beam patterns
based on specifications pending
approval by the United Nations’
Economic Commission for Europe (ECE)
under ECE R112. If these requested
amendments were adopted,
manufacturers of vehicles sold in the
U.S. would be able to choose to certify
products to either the existing
requirements of FMVSS No. 108 or the
requested alternative new requirements.
Modifications to the agency’s test
procedures were also requested. The
petitioners stated that Japan had
