USRP certifies that its projected
revenues as a result of the transaction

Petition for Exemption From the
Federal Motor Vehicle Motor Theft
Prevention Standard; General Motors
Corporation
AGENCY: National Highway Traffic
Safety Administration, Department of
Transportation (DOT)
ACTION: Grant of petition for exemption.
SUMMARY: This document grants in full
the petition of General Motors
Corporation’s (GM) petition for an
exemption of the Cadillac CTS vehicle
line in accordance with 49 CFR part
543, Exemption from the Theft
Prevention Standard. This petition is
granted because the agency has
determined that the antitheft device to
be placed on the line as standard
equipment is likely to be as effective in
reducing and deterring motor vehicle
theft as compliance with the partsmarking requirements of the Theft
Prevention Standard (49 CFR part 541).
DATES: The exemption granted by this
notice is effective beginning with model
year (MY) 2011.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Ms.
Carlita Ballard, Office of International

Standards, NHTSA, W43–439, 1200

DC 20590. Ms. Ballard’s phone number
is (202) 366–0846. Her fax number is
(202) 493–2990.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In a
petition dated September 25, 2009, GM
requested an exemption from the partsmarking requirements of the theft
prevention standard (49 CFR part 541)
for the Cadillac CTS vehicle line
beginning with MY 2011. The petition
has been filed pursuant to 49 CFR 543,
Exemption from Vehicle Theft
Prevention Standard, based on the
installation of an antitheft device as
standard equipment for the entire
vehicle line.
Under § 543.5(a), a manufacturer may
petition NHTSA to grant an exemption
for one vehicle line per model year. In
its petition, GM provided a detailed
description and diagram of the identity,
design, and location of the components
of the antitheft device for the Cadillac
CTS vehicle line. GM stated that all
Cadillac CTS vehicles will be equipped
with a passive, transponder-based,
electronic immobilizer device as
standard equipment beginning with MY
2011. Vehicles will have either the
(PASS–Key III+) or the Keyless Access
system. GM stated that both devices will
