SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
CATEGORIES OF INDIVIDUALS COVERED BY THE
SYSTEM:
General Information
The U.S. Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA) plans to create a Privacy
Act system of records for the Engine and
Vehicle Exemptions System (EV–ES).
The information collected in this system
supports the Imports Exemptions
program under the Clean Air Act (CAA)
and implementing regulations codified
in 40 CFR Parts 85 and 1068. The CAA
requires manufacturers of motor
vehicles and engines to design and
build vehicles that will comply with
emissions standards throughout the
vehicle’s life span. EPA and Customs
and Border Protection (CBP) regulations
allow for individuals who are not
residents of the United States and who
reside outside of the United States to
import nonconforming on-highway
vehicles (e.g., cars, motorcycles or motor
homes) for a period of up to one year for
personal use. Applicants are required to
provide their name, address, phone
number or email and the vehicle
identification number (VIN) as part of
the application process in order for EPA
to provide approval or denial letters to
the requestors. The information that will
be maintained regarding program
participants includes the vehicle
owner’s name, address, phone number,
email address and vehicle identification
number (VIN).
The information is contained in
computer and paper files at EPA’s
National Vehicle and Fuel Emissions
Laboratory in Ann Arbor, Michigan.
Only contractor employees (governed by
Privacy Act compliance terms in their
contract) and EPA employees
administering the program have access
to the information contained in the
database. Files containing personal
information are kept in locked filing
cabinets. Physical access to the filing
cabinets is limited to authorized
personnel employees with building key
cards.
