SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: FTA seeks comment on whether it should grant a non-availability waiver for the Kansas City procurement of a VRF HVAC system for its VMF associated with the Kansas City Downtown Streetcar Project, using FTA grant funding. With certain exceptions, FTA’s Buy America requirements prevent FTA from obligating an amount that may be appropriated to carry out its program for a project unless ‘‘the steel, iron, and manufactured goods used in the project are produced in the United States.’’ 49 U.S.C. 5323(j)(1). A manufactured product is considered produced in the United States if: (1) All of the manufacturing processes for the product must take place in the United States; and (2) all of the components of the tkelley on DSK3SPTVN1PROD with NOTICES ADDRESSES: VerDate Sep<11>2014 19:59 Jul 21, 2015 Jkt 235001 product must be of U.S. origin. A component is considered of U.S. origin if it is manufactured in the United States, regardless of the origin of its subcomponents. 49 CFR 661.5(d). If, however, FTA determines that ‘‘the steel, iron, and goods produced in the United States are not produced in a sufficient and reasonably available amount or are not of a satisfactory quality,’’ then FTA may issue a waiver (non-availability waiver). 49 U.S.C. 5323(j)(2)(B); 49 CFR 661.7(c). Kansas City is requesting a nonavailability waiver for its procurement of a VRF HVAC system that will be installed in a VMF in Kansas City, Missouri, that will service its street cars. This facility is being built to U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC) Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) standards and will incorporate a number of sustainable and energy efficient elements. One of those elements is a VRF HVAC system that, among other things, is space saving, has invertor technology, efficiency, and a non-ozone depleting refrigerant that domestic manufacturers of HVAC systems do not provide. According to Kansas City, its contractor was directed to evaluate the substitution of a Buy America-compliant Variable Air Volume (VAV) system, but the contractor advised Kansas City that the VAV system would endanger the project’s LEED Gold certification because of the difference in efficiency between the VAV and VRF HVAC systems. In addition, the substitution of a VAV system would require significant changes to the project, such as the alteration of already-erected structural elements that were designed to accommodate a VRF system and additional design changes and plan reviews by Kansas City. Kansas City points to two recent nonavailability waivers FTA issued to the San Bernardino Associated Governments (79 FR 61129, October 9, 2014) and Rock Island County Metropolitan Mass Transit District for a similar VRF system (79 FR 34653, June 17, 2014), as well as to a blanket nonavailability waiver issued by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) in 2010 for VRF HVAC systems procured with American Reinvestment and Recovery Act funding (75 FR 35447, June 22, 2010). According to Kansas City, the U.S. DOE’s determination of nonavailability and FTA’s recent waivers, as well as their own contractor’s research, indicate that this product is not manufactured domestically. Finally, FTA, in collaboration with the National Institute of Standards and Technology’s Hollings Manufacturing Extension PO 00000 Frm 00169 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 Partnership, conducted a nationwide search to determine if any company currently manufactures a compatible VRF system that complies with BuyAmerica. The search revealed that no company currently can provide a BuyAmerica compliant VRF system that meets Kansas City’s specifications. The purpose of this notice is to publish Kansas City’s request and to seek public comment from all interested parties in accordance with 49 U.S.C. 5323(j)(3)(A). Comments will help FTA understand completely the facts surrounding the request, including the effects of a potential waiver and the merits of the request. A full copy of the request has been placed in docket number FTA–2015–0010. Dana Nifosi, Acting Chief Counsel.

OMB Control Number: 2127–0621. Form Number: None. Abstract: FMVSS No. 403, Platform lift systems for motor vehicles, establishes minimum performance standards for platform lifts designed for installation on motor vehicles. Its purpose is to prevent injuries and fatalities to passengers and bystanders during the operation of platform lifts that assist wheelchair users and other persons with limited mobility in entering and leaving a vehicle. FMVSS No. 404, Platform lift installations in motor vehicles, places specific requirements on vehicle manufacturers or alterers who install platform lifts in new vehicles. Under these regulations, lift manufacturers must certify that their lifts meet the requirements of FMVSS No. 403 and must declare the certification on the owner’s manual insert, the installation instructions, and the lift operating instruction label. Certification of compliance with FMVSS No. 404 is on the certification label already required of vehicle manufacturers and alterers under 49 CFR part 567. Under these two safety standards, lift manufacturers must produce: An insert that is placed in the vehicle owner’s manual; installation instructions; and one or two labels that are placed near the controls for operating the lift in normal mode and in back-up mode. The requirements and our estimates of burden and cost to the lift manufacturers are given below. There is no burden to the general public. Affected Parties: Businesses or other for-profit entities. Respondents: Platform lift manufacturers and vehicle manufacturers/alterers that install platform lifts in new motor vehicles before first vehicle sale. Estimated Number of Respondents: 10. Frequency of Collection: Per each production platform lift unit. Estimated Total Annual Burden: Estimated burden to lift manufacturers to produce an insert for the vehicle owner’s manual stating the lift’s platform operating volume, maintenance schedule, and instructions regarding the lift operating procedures: —10 manufacturers × 24 hrs. amortized over 5 yrs. = 48 hrs. per year. Estimated burden to lift manufacturers to produce lift installation instructions identifying the vehicles on which the lift is designed to be installed: VerDate Sep<11>2014 19:59 Jul 21, 2015 Jkt 235001 —10 manufacturers × 24 hrs. amortized over 5 yrs. = 48 hrs. per year. Estimated burden to lift manufacturers to produce two labels for operating and backup lift operation: —10 manufacturers × 48 hrs. amortized over 5 yrs. = 96 hrs. per year. Estimated cost to lift manufacturers to produce: —Label for operating instructions— 27,398 lifts × $0.13 per label = $3,561.74. —Label for backup operations—27,398 lifts × $0.13 per label = $3,561.74. —Owner’s manual insert—27,398 lifts ×$0.04 per page × 1 page = $1,095.92. —Installation instructions—27,398 lifts × $0.04 per page × 1 page = $1,095.92. Although lift installation instructions are considerably more than one page, lift manufacturers already provide lift installation instructions in the normal course of business and one additional page should be adequate to allow the inclusion of FMVSS-specific information. Total estimated annual cost = $9,315.32. Total estimated hour burden per year = 192 hours. Addressee:Send comments regarding the burden estimate, including suggestions for reducing the burden, to the Office of Management and Budget, Attention: Desk Officer for the Office of the Secretary of Transportation, 725 17th Street NW., Washington, DC 20503.

    Abstract: FMVSS No. 403, Platform lift systems for motor vehicles, 
establishes minimum performance standards for platform lifts designed 
for installation on motor vehicles. Its purpose is to prevent injuries 
and fatalities to passengers and bystanders during the operation of 
platform lifts that assist wheelchair users and other persons with 
limited mobility in entering and leaving a vehicle. FMVSS No. 404, 
Platform lift installations in motor vehicles, places specific 
requirements on vehicle manufacturers or alterers who install platform 
lifts in new vehicles. Under these regulations, lift manufacturers must 
certify that their lifts meet the requirements of FMVSS No. 403 and 
must declare the certification on the owner's manual insert, the 
installation instructions, and the lift operating instruction label. 
Certification of compliance with FMVSS No. 404 is on the certification 
label already required of vehicle manufacturers and alterers under 49 
CFR part 567. Under these two safety standards, lift manufacturers must 
produce: An insert that is placed in the vehicle owner's manual; 
installation instructions; and one or two labels that are placed near 
the controls for operating the lift in normal mode and in back-up mode. 
The requirements and our estimates of burden and cost to the lift 
manufacturers are given below. There is no burden to the general 
public.
    Affected Parties: Businesses or other for-profit entities.
    Respondents: Platform lift manufacturers and vehicle manufacturers/
alterers that install platform lifts in new motor vehicles before first 
vehicle sale.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 10.
    Frequency of Collection: Per each production platform lift unit.
    Estimated Total Annual Burden:
Estimated burden to lift manufacturers to produce an insert for the 
vehicle owner's manual stating the lift's platform operating volume, 
maintenance schedule, and instructions regarding the lift operating 
procedures:
--10 manufacturers x 24 hrs. amortized over 5 yrs. = 48 hrs. per year.
Estimated burden to lift manufacturers to produce lift installation 
instructions identifying the vehicles on which the lift is designed to 
be installed:
--10 manufacturers x 24 hrs. amortized over 5 yrs. = 48 hrs. per year.
Estimated burden to lift manufacturers to produce two labels for 
operating and backup lift operation:
--10 manufacturers x 48 hrs. amortized over 5 yrs. = 96 hrs. per year.
Estimated cost to lift manufacturers to produce:
--Label for operating instructions--27,398 lifts x $0.13 per label = 
$3,561.74.
--Label for backup operations--27,398 lifts x $0.13 per label = 
$3,561.74.
--Owner's manual insert--27,398 lifts x$0.04 per page x 1 page = 
$1,095.92.

--Installation instructions--27,398 lifts x $0.04 per page x 1 page = 
$1,095.92.
    Although lift installation instructions are considerably more than 
one page, lift manufacturers already provide lift installation 
instructions in the normal course of business and one additional page 
should be adequate to allow the inclusion of FMVSS-specific 
information.
    Total estimated annual cost = $9,315.32.
    Total estimated hour burden per year = 192 hours.
    Addressee:Send comments regarding the burden estimate, including
