requirements approved in the order
creates a baseline technical
interoperability framework for
Petitioners’ actual deployment of public
safety broadband networks in advance
of the Commission’s adoption of final
technical and operational rules for a
nationwide interoperable public safety
broadband network. The requirements
approved in the order are essential to
achieving nationwide interoperability
among early-deployed public safety
broadband networks. These
requirements address core aspects of
interoperability, such as roaming
capabilities and system identifiers, that
are crucial to ensuring that the users of
disparate networks are capable of
communicating seamlessly. Also
included are requirements that earlydeployed networks meet performance,
coverage, and other requirements
necessary to ensure that early-deployed
networks achieve a baseline of
operability sufficient to support
interoperable communications.

decrease in the vehicle theft rate
experienced in CY/MY 2008. The final
theft rate for MY 2008 passenger
vehicles stolen in calendar year 2008 is
1.69 thefts per thousand vehicles, a
decrease of 8.65 percent from the rate of
1.85 thefts per thousand in 2007.
Publication of these data fulfills
NHTSA’s statutory obligation to
periodically obtain accurate and timely
theft data and publish the information
for review and comment.
DATES: Effective date: January 14, 2011.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Ms.
Deborah Mazyck, Office of International
Policy, Fuel Economy and Consumer
Programs, NHTSA, 1200 New Jersey
Avenue, SE., Washington, DC 20590.
Ms. Mazyck’s telephone number is (202)

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: NHTSA
administers a program for reducing
motor vehicle theft. The central feature
of this program is the Federal Motor
Vehicle Theft Prevention Standard, 49
CFR Part 541. The standard specifies
performance requirements for inscribing
and affixing vehicle identification
numbers (VINs) onto certain major
original equipment and replacement
parts of high-theft lines of passenger
motor vehicles.
The agency is required by 49 U.S.C.
33104(b)(4) to periodically obtain, from
the most reliable source, accurate and
timely theft data and publish the data
for review and comment. To fulfill this
VerDate Mar<15>2010
17:19 Jan 13, 2011
Jkt 223001
statutory mandate, NHTSA has
published theft data annually beginning
with MYs 1983/84. Continuing to fulfill
the section 33104(b)(4) mandate, this
document reports the final theft data for
CY 2008, the most recent calendar year
for which data are available.
In calculating the 2008 theft rates,
NHTSA followed the same procedures it
used in calculating the MY 2007 theft
rates. (For 2007 theft data calculations,
see 75 FR 47720, August 9, 2010). As in
all previous reports, NHTSA’s data were
based on information provided to
NHTSA by the National Crime
Information Center (NCIC) of the
Federal Bureau of Investigation. The
NCIC is a government system that
receives vehicle theft information from
nearly 23,000 criminal justice agencies
and other law enforcement authorities
throughout the United States. The NCIC
data also include reported thefts of selfinsured and uninsured vehicles, not all
of which are reported to other data
sources.
The 2008 theft rate for each vehicle
line was calculated by dividing the
number of reported thefts of MY 2008
vehicles of that line stolen during
calendar year 2008 by the total number
of vehicles in that line manufactured for
MY 2008, as reported to the
Environmental Protection Agency
(EPA).
The final 2008 theft data show a
decrease in the vehicle theft rate when
compared to the theft rate experienced
PO 00000
Frm 00029
Fmt 4700
Sfmt 4700
2599
in CY/MY 2007. The final theft rate for
MY 2008 passenger vehicles stolen in
calendar year 2008 decreased to 1.69
thefts per thousand vehicles produced,
a decrease of 8.65 percent from the rate
of 1.85 thefts per thousand vehicles
experienced by MY 2007 vehicles in CY
2007.
For MY 2008 vehicles, out of a total
of 241 vehicle lines, 17 lines had a theft
rate higher than 3.5826 per thousand
vehicles, the established median theft
rate for MYs 1990/1991. (See 59 FR
12400, March 16, 1994). Of the 17
vehicle lines with a theft rate higher
than 3.5826, 14 are passenger car lines,
three are multipurpose passenger
vehicle lines, and none are light-duty
truck lines.
A historical review of the 5-, 10- and
15-year theft trends show a substantial
decrease in the vehicle theft rate when
comparing the 2008 theft rate (1.69
thefts per thousand vehicles) to MY/
CY’s 1993, 1998 and 2003 theft rates.
The 2008 rate is 57.54 percent lower
than the CY/MY 1993 rate (3.98 thefts
per thousand vehicles), 33.46 percent
lower than the CY/MY 1998 rate (2.54
thefts per thousand vehicles) and 8.15
percent below the CY/MY 2003 rate
(1.84 thefts per thousand vehicles).
Overall as indicated by Figure 1, theft
rates have continued to indicate a
decreasing trend since CY/MY 1993,
with periods of very moderate increases
from one year to the next.
E:\FR\FM\14JAR1.SGM
14JAR1
Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 10 / Friday, January 14, 2011 / Rules and Regulations
The agency believes that the theft rate
reduction could be the result of several
factors including the increased use of
standard antitheft devices (i.e.,
immobilizers), vehicle parts marking,
increased and improved prosecution
efforts by law enforcement organizations
and increased public awareness
measures.
On Tuesday, August 17, 2010,
NHTSA published the preliminary theft
rates for CY 2008 passenger motor
vehicles in the Federal Register (75 FR
5073). The agency tentatively ranked
each of the MY 2008 vehicle lines in
descending order of theft rate. The
public was requested to comment on the
accuracy of the data and to provide final
production figures for individual
vehicle lines. The agency used written
comments to make the necessary
adjustments to its data. As a result of the
adjustments, some of the final theft rates
and rankings of vehicle lines changed
from those published in the August
2010 notice. The agency received
written comments from Volkswagen
Group of America, Inc. (VW) and Nissan
North America, Inc. (Nissan).
Volkswagen informed the agency that
the terms ‘‘Quattro’’ and ‘‘Avant’’ should
be deleted from the Volkswagen and
Audi vehicle line nomenclature. The
Quattro and Avant nomenclature are
used in EPA data to identify the 4-wheel
drive system as the Quattro or the
station wagon model as the Avant. VW
stated that the Quattro and Avant are
VerDate Mar<15>2010
17:19 Jan 13, 2011
Jkt 223001
not part of the vehicle line name and
therefore, are not relevant to the theft
data listing. As a result of this comment,
Quattro and Avant have been deleted
from the vehicle line nomenclature for
the Volkswagen and Audi vehicle lines.
Therefore, the entry for the Audi A6/A6
Quattro/S6/S6 Avant has been changed
to the Audi A6 and the Audi S6. The
Audi A8/A8 Quattro entry is now listed
as the Audi A8, the Audi S8/S8 Quattro
entry is now listed as the Audi S8, the
Audi A3/A3 Quattro entry is now listed
as the Audi A3, the Audi A6/A6
Quattro/S6/S6 Avant entry is now listed
as the Audi A6 and the Audi S6, and the
Audi A4/A5//A4/A5 Quattro//S4/S4
Avant entry is now listed as the Audi
A4/A5 and the Audi S4/S5. The final
theft list has been revised to reflect
these changes. Additionally,
Volkswagen requested that its
performance-related vehicle models be
listed separately from its base model
vehicle lines.
In its comments, VW informed the
agency that the production volumes for
the Audi S8, Audi A6, Audi S6, Audi
A8, Volkswagen R32, Volkswagen Jetta/
GLI, the Volkswagen Passat and the
Audi TT are incorrect. In response to
this comment, the production volume
for the Audi S8, Audi A6, Audi S6,
Audi A8, Volkswagen R32, Volkswagen
Jetta/GLI, the Volkswagen Passat and
the Audi TT have been corrected and
the final theft list has been revised
accordingly. As a result of the
PO 00000
Frm 00030
Fmt 4700
Sfmt 4700
correction, the Audi S8 previously
ranked No. 40 with a theft rate of 2.5974
remains ranked No. 40 with a theft rate
of 2.5907, the Audi A6 previously
ranked No. 86 with a theft rate of 1.4414
is now ranked No. No. 92 with a theft
rate of 1.3990, the Audi S6 previously
ranked No. 86 with a theft rate of 1.4414
is now ranked No. 48 with a theft rate
of 1.3990, the Audi A8 previously
ranked No. 141 with a theft rate of
0.8478 is now ranked No. 92 with a theft
rate of 1.3990, the Volkswagen R32
previously ranked No. 60 with a theft
rate of 1.8004 is now ranked No. 61 with
a theft rate of 1.7996, the Volksgwagen
Jetta/GLI previously ranked No. 75 with
a theft rate of 1.5822 is now ranked No.
76 with a theft rate of 1.5821, the
Volkswagen Passat previously ranked
No. 144 with a theft rate of 0.8198 is
now ranked No. 147 with a theft rate of
0.8197, and the Audi TT previously
ranked No. 186 with a theft rate of
0.5048 is now ranked No. 188 with a
theft rate of 2.5907.
In its comments, Nissan requested
that the agency confirm the number of
thefts for the Nissan Pathfinder.
Reanalysis of the preliminary theft data
provided for the Nissan Pathfinder
revealed an error in the production
volume for the line. Therefore, the
agency has corrected the production
volume reported for the Nissan
Pathfinder. As a result of the reanalysis,
the Nissan Pathfinder previously ranked
No. 13 with a theft rate of 4.5523 is now

srobinson on DSKHWCL6B1PROD with RULES
2600
Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 10 / Friday, January 14, 2011 / Rules and Regulations
ranked No. 30 with a theft rate of
3.0085.
Further reanalysis of the theft rate
data revealed that the August 17, 2010
publication of preliminary theft data did
not include the Toyota Matrix. NHTSA
is correcting the final theft data to
include the thefts and production
volumes for the Toyota Matrix. As a
result of this correction, the Toyota
Matrix, previously not listed, is ranked
No. 79 with a theft rate of 1.5487.
As a result of changes in the theft
ranking, reanalysis of the theft rate data
revealed that the number of vehicle
lines reported with a theft rate higher
than 3.5826 was incorrect. The
publication of preliminary theft data for
CY 2008 erroneously reported that there
were 14 passenger cars, four
multipurpose passenger vehicle lines
and no light-duty truck lines with theft
rates higher than 3.5826. NHTSA is
correcting the final theft data to reflect
that 14 passenger car lines, three
2601
multipurpose passenger vehicle lines,
and no light truck lines with a theft rate
higher than 3.5826.
The following list represents
NHTSA’s final calculation of theft rates
for all 2008 passenger motor vehicle
lines. This list is intended to inform the
public of calendar year 2008 motor
vehicle thefts of model year 2008
vehicles and does not have any effect on
the obligations of regulated parties
under 49 U.S.C. Chapter 331, Theft
Prevention.

DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION
National Highway Traffic Safety Administration
49 CFR Part 541
[Docket No. NHTSA-2010-0098]
Final Theft Data; Motor Vehicle Theft Prevention Standard
AGENCY: National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA),
Department of Transportation.
ACTION: Publication of 2008 final theft data.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: This document publishes the final data on thefts of model year
(MY) 2008 passenger motor vehicles that occurred in calendar year (CY)
2008. The final 2008 theft data indicated a
[[Page 2599]]
decrease in the vehicle theft rate experienced in CY/MY 2008. The final
theft rate for MY 2008 passenger vehicles stolen in calendar year 2008
is 1.69 thefts per thousand vehicles, a decrease of 8.65 percent from
the rate of 1.85 thefts per thousand in 2007. Publication of these data
fulfills NHTSA's statutory obligation to periodically obtain accurate
and timely theft data and publish the information for review and
comment.
DATES: Effective date: January 14, 2011.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Ms. Deborah Mazyck, Office of
International Policy, Fuel Economy and Consumer Programs, NHTSA, 1200
New Jersey Avenue, SE., Washington, DC 20590. Ms. Mazyck's telephone
number is (202) 366-0846. Her fax number is (202) 493-2990.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: NHTSA administers a program for reducing
motor vehicle theft. The central feature of this program is the Federal
Motor Vehicle Theft Prevention Standard, 49 CFR Part 541. The standard
specifies performance requirements for inscribing and affixing vehicle
identification numbers (VINs) onto certain major original equipment and
replacement parts of high-theft lines of passenger motor vehicles.
The agency is required by 49 U.S.C. 33104(b)(4) to periodically
obtain, from the most reliable source, accurate and timely theft data
and publish the data for review and comment. To fulfill this statutory
mandate, NHTSA has published theft data annually beginning with MYs
1983/84. Continuing to fulfill the section 33104(b)(4) mandate, this
document reports the final theft data for CY 2008, the most recent
calendar year for which data are available.
In calculating the 2008 theft rates, NHTSA followed the same
procedures it used in calculating the MY 2007 theft rates. (For 2007
theft data calculations, see 75 FR 47720, August 9, 2010). As in all
previous reports, NHTSA's data were based on information provided to
NHTSA by the National Crime Information Center (NCIC) of the Federal
Bureau of Investigation. The NCIC is a government system that receives
vehicle theft information from nearly 23,000 criminal justice agencies
and other law enforcement authorities throughout the United States. The
NCIC data also include reported thefts of self-insured and uninsured
vehicles, not all of which are reported to other data sources.
The 2008 theft rate for each vehicle line was calculated by
dividing the number of reported thefts of MY 2008 vehicles of that line
stolen during calendar year 2008 by the total number of vehicles in
that line manufactured for MY 2008, as reported to the Environmental
Protection Agency (EPA).
The final 2008 theft data show a decrease in the vehicle theft rate
when compared to the theft rate experienced in CY/MY 2007. The final
theft rate for MY 2008 passenger vehicles stolen in calendar year 2008
decreased to 1.69 thefts per thousand vehicles produced, a decrease of
8.65 percent from the rate of 1.85 thefts per thousand vehicles
experienced by MY 2007 vehicles in CY 2007.
For MY 2008 vehicles, out of a total of 241 vehicle lines, 17 lines
had a theft rate higher than 3.5826 per thousand vehicles, the
established median theft rate for MYs 1990/1991. (See 59 FR 12400,
March 16, 1994). Of the 17 vehicle lines with a theft rate higher than
3.5826, 14 are passenger car lines, three are multipurpose passenger
vehicle lines, and none are light-duty truck lines.
A historical review of the 5-, 10- and 15-year theft trends show a
substantial decrease in the vehicle theft rate when comparing the 2008
theft rate (1.69 thefts per thousand vehicles) to MY/CY's 1993, 1998
and 2003 theft rates. The 2008 rate is 57.54 percent lower than the CY/
MY 1993 rate (3.98 thefts per thousand vehicles), 33.46 percent lower
than the CY/MY 1998 rate (2.54 thefts per thousand vehicles) and 8.15
percent below the CY/MY 2003 rate (1.84 thefts per thousand vehicles).
Overall as indicated by Figure 1, theft rates have continued to
indicate a decreasing trend since CY/MY 1993, with periods of very
moderate increases from one year to the next.
[[Page 2600]]
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR14JA11.002
The agency believes that the theft rate reduction could be the
result of several factors including the increased use of standard
antitheft devices (i.e., immobilizers), vehicle parts marking,
increased and improved prosecution efforts by law enforcement
organizations and increased public awareness measures.
On Tuesday, August 17, 2010, NHTSA published the preliminary theft
rates for CY 2008 passenger motor vehicles in the Federal Register (75
FR 5073). The agency tentatively ranked each of the MY 2008 vehicle
lines in descending order of theft rate. The public was requested to
comment on the accuracy of the data and to provide final production
figures for individual vehicle lines. The agency used written comments
to make the necessary adjustments to its data. As a result of the
adjustments, some of the final theft rates and rankings of vehicle
lines changed from those published in the August 2010 notice. The
agency received written comments from Volkswagen Group of America, Inc.
(VW) and Nissan North America, Inc. (Nissan).
Volkswagen informed the agency that the terms ``Quattro'' and
``Avant'' should be deleted from the Volkswagen and Audi vehicle line
nomenclature. The Quattro and Avant nomenclature are used in EPA data
to identify the 4-wheel drive system as the Quattro or the station
wagon model as the Avant. VW stated that the Quattro and Avant are not
part of the vehicle line name and therefore, are not relevant to the
theft data listing. As a result of this comment, Quattro and Avant have
been deleted from the vehicle line nomenclature for the Volkswagen and
Audi vehicle lines. Therefore, the entry for the Audi A6/A6 Quattro/S6/
S6 Avant has been changed to the Audi A6 and the Audi S6. The Audi A8/
A8 Quattro entry is now listed as the Audi A8, the Audi S8/S8 Quattro
entry is now listed as the Audi S8, the Audi A3/A3 Quattro entry is now
listed as the Audi A3, the Audi A6/A6 Quattro/S6/S6 Avant entry is now
listed as the Audi A6 and the Audi S6, and the Audi A4/A5//A4/A5
Quattro//S4/S4 Avant entry is now listed as the Audi A4/A5 and the Audi
S4/S5. The final theft list has been revised to reflect these changes.
Additionally, Volkswagen requested that its performance-related vehicle
models be listed separately from its base model vehicle lines.
In its comments, VW informed the agency that the production volumes
for the Audi S8, Audi A6, Audi S6, Audi A8, Volkswagen R32, Volkswagen
Jetta/GLI, the Volkswagen Passat and the Audi TT are incorrect. In
response to this comment, the production volume for the Audi S8, Audi
A6, Audi S6, Audi A8, Volkswagen R32, Volkswagen Jetta/GLI, the
Volkswagen Passat and the Audi TT have been corrected and the final
theft list has been revised accordingly. As a result of the correction,
the Audi S8 previously ranked No. 40 with a theft rate of 2.5974
remains ranked No. 40 with a theft rate of 2.5907, the Audi A6
previously ranked No. 86 with a theft rate of 1.4414 is now ranked No.
No. 92 with a theft rate of 1.3990, the Audi S6 previously ranked No.
86 with a theft rate of 1.4414 is now ranked No. 48 with a theft rate
of 1.3990, the Audi A8 previously ranked No. 141 with a theft rate of
0.8478 is now ranked No. 92 with a theft rate of 1.3990, the Volkswagen
R32 previously ranked No. 60 with a theft rate of 1.8004 is now ranked
No. 61 with a theft rate of 1.7996, the Volksgwagen Jetta/GLI
previously ranked No. 75 with a theft rate of 1.5822 is now ranked No.
76 with a theft rate of 1.5821, the Volkswagen Passat previously ranked
No. 144 with a theft rate of 0.8198 is now ranked No. 147 with a theft
rate of 0.8197, and the Audi TT previously ranked No. 186 with a theft
rate of 0.5048 is now ranked No. 188 with a theft rate of 2.5907.
In its comments, Nissan requested that the agency confirm the
number of thefts for the Nissan Pathfinder. Reanalysis of the
preliminary theft data provided for the Nissan Pathfinder revealed an
error in the production volume for the line. Therefore, the agency has
corrected the production volume reported for the Nissan Pathfinder. As
a result of the reanalysis, the Nissan Pathfinder previously ranked No.
13 with a theft rate of 4.5523 is now
[[Page 2601]]
ranked No. 30 with a theft rate of 3.0085.
Further reanalysis of the theft rate data revealed that the August
17, 2010 publication of preliminary theft data did not include the
Toyota Matrix. NHTSA is correcting the final theft data to include the
thefts and production volumes for the Toyota Matrix. As a result of
this correction, the Toyota Matrix, previously not listed, is ranked
No. 79 with a theft rate of 1.5487.
As a result of changes in the theft ranking, reanalysis of the
theft rate data revealed that the number of vehicle lines reported with
a theft rate higher than 3.5826 was incorrect. The publication of
preliminary theft data for CY 2008 erroneously reported that there were
14 passenger cars, four multipurpose passenger vehicle lines and no
light-duty truck lines with theft rates higher than 3.5826. NHTSA is
correcting the final theft data to reflect that 14 passenger car lines,
three multipurpose passenger vehicle lines, and no light truck lines
with a theft rate higher than 3.5826.
The following list represents NHTSA's final calculation of theft
rates for all 2008 passenger motor vehicle lines. This list is intended
to inform the public of calendar year 2008 motor vehicle thefts of
model year 2008 vehicles and does not have any effect on the
obligations of regulated parties under 49 U.S.C. Chapter 331, Theft
Prevention.
