addressed what it believes are similar
issues.
Tireco is not aware of any crashes,
injuries, customer complaints, or field
reports associated with the subject
noncompliance.
Tireco has additionally informed
NHTSA that the fabricating
manufacturer has corrected the molds at
the manufacturing plant so that no
additional tires will be manufactured
with the noncompliance.
In summation, Tireco believes that the
described noncompliance of the subject
tires is inconsequential to motor vehicle
safety, and that its petition, to exempt
Tireco from providing recall notification
of noncompliance as required by 49
U.S.C. 30118 and remedying the recall
noncompliance as required by 49 U.S.C.
30120 should be granted.
NHTSA’S Decision:
NHTSA’s Analysis: Although the tire
size codes were not included as part of
the TINs on the effected tires, the actual
size of each tire is clearly marked on its
sidewall and should allow end-users to
be able to select a tire size for their
vehicles. In addition, in the event that
the tires are subject to a recall or need
to be identified as part of a defect
investigation, the tires could be
identified by the correctly stamped
partial TIN on the sidewall. Subsequent
to receiving the subject petition, NHTSA
contacted Tireco and received its
verification that a registration card
submitted with an incomplete TIN for
the subject tires would be accepted and
registered correctly.
The subject noncompliance also has
no effect on the operational safety of
vehicles on which these tires are
mounted. NHTSA’s Decision: In
consideration of the foregoing, NHTSA
has decided that Tireco has met its
burden of persuasion that the FMVSS
No. 119 noncompliance is
inconsequential to motor vehicle safety.
Accordingly, Tireco’s petition is hereby
granted and Tireco is not obligated to
provide notification of, and a remedy
for, that noncompliance under 49 U.S.C.
30118 and 30120.
NHTSA notes that the statutory
provisions (49 U.S.C. 30118(d) and
30120(h)) that permit manufacturers to
file petitions for a determination of
inconsequentiality allow NHTSA to
exempt manufacturers only from the
duties found in sections 30118 and
30120, respectively, to notify owners,
purchasers, and dealers of a defect or
noncompliance and to remedy the
defect or noncompliance. Therefore, any
decision on this petition only applies to
the subject tires that Tireco no longer
controlled at the time it determined that
the noncompliance existed. However,
VerDate Sep<11>2014
23:37 Oct 28, 2015
Jkt 238001
any decision on this petition does not
relieve tire distributors and dealers of
the prohibitions on the sale, offer for
sale, or introduction or delivery for
introduction into interstate commerce of
the noncompliant tires under their
control after Tireco notified them that
the subject noncompliance existed.
Authority: 49 U.S.C. 30118, 30120:
Delegations of authority at 49 CFR 1.95 and
501.8.

Proposed Agency Information
Collection Request; Vendor Invoice
Submission Pilot
U.S. Department of
Transportation (DOT).
ACTION: Notice with request for
comments.
AGENCY:
The DOT invites the public
and other Federal agencies to comment
on a proposed information collection
request concerning a pilot program to
evaluate new processes and procedures
for vendor invoice submission. DOT
will submit the proposed information
collection request to the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) for
review, as required by the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA) (44 U.S.C.
3506 (c)(2)(A)). This notice sets forth
new processes and procedures for
vendors that submit invoices and
receive payments from DOT Operating
Administrations (OAs). DOT’s objective
is to improve efficiency and reduce
manual processing through the use of
electronic invoicing for vendors. This
electronic invoicing process is currently
used by DOT’s grantee community and
the Department and would like to pilot
an automated invoicing process utilized
by DOT grantees that would allow
invoices to be submitted electronically.
Automating and simplifying the DOT
vendor payment process will save both
the vendor and the Federal Government
time and expense that come with paperbased invoice submission and payment
administration.
DATES: Comments must be submitted on
or before December 28, 2015.
