OMB Control Number: 2060–0060.
Abstract: Under Section 206(a) of the
Clean Air Act (42 U.S.C. 7521), onhighway engine and vehicle
manufacturers may not legally introduce
their products into US commerce unless
EPA has certified that their production
complies with applicable emission
standards. Per section 207(a), original
vehicle manufacturers must warrant that
vehicles are free from defects in
materials and workmanship that would
cause the vehicle not to comply with
emission regulations during its useful
life. Section 207(a) directs EPA to
provide certification to those
manufacturers or builders of automotive
aftermarket parts that demonstrate that
the installation and use of their
products will not cause failure of the
engine or vehicle to comply with
emission standards. An aftermarket part
is any part offered for sale for
installation in or on a motor vehicle
after such vehicle has left the vehicle
manufacturer’s production line (40 CFR
85.2113(b)). Participation in the
aftermarket certification program is
voluntary. Aftermarket part
manufacturers or builders
(manufacturers) electing to participate
conduct emission and durability testing
as described in 40 CFR part 85, subpart
V, and submit data about their products
and testing procedures. Any information
submitted to the Agency for which a
claim of confidentiality is made is
safeguarded according to policies set
forth in CFR title 40, chapter 1, part 2,
subpart B—Confidentiality of Business
Information (see 40 CFR part 2).
Form Numbers: None.
Respondents/affected entities:
Manufacturers or builders of automotive
aftermarket parts. Respondent’s
obligation to respond: Voluntary.

Changes in Estimates: There is no
change in the total estimated respondent

Notice of Receipt of Petitions for a
Waiver of the Renewable Fuel
Standard
Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Notice.
AGENCY:
EPA has received a number of
petitions for a waiver of the renewable
fuel standards that would apply in 2014.
The American Petroleum Institute (API)
and the American Fuel & Petrochemical
Manufacturers (AFPM) submitted a joint
petition to the Administrator, dated
August 13, 2013, on behalf of their
members requesting a partial waiver of
the 2014 applicable volumes under the
RFS. Subsequently, several refining
companies submitted individual
petitions to the Administrator that also
request a waiver of the 2014 applicable
volumes. Section 211(o)(7)(A) of the
Clean Air Act allows the Administrator
of the EPA to waive the national volume
requirements of the renewable fuel
standard program in whole or in part if
the Administrator determines that
implementation of those requirements
would severely harm the economy or
environment of a State, a region, or the
United States, or that there is
