Title: 49 CFR part 595—Make
Inoperative Exemptions.
OMB Control Number: 2127–0635.
Type of Request: Request for public
comments on a previously approved
collection of information.
Abstract: On February 27, 2001,
NHTSA published a final rule (66 FR
12638) to facilitate the modification of
motor vehicles so that persons with
disabilities can drive or ride in them as
passengers. In that final rule, the agency
issued a limited exemption from a
statutory provision that prohibits
specified types of commercial entities
from either removing safety equipment
or features installed on motor vehicles
pursuant to the Federal motor vehicle
safety standards or altering the
equipment or features so as to adversely
PO 00000

affect their performance. The exemption
is limited in that it allows repair
businesses to modify only certain types
of Federally-required safety equipment
and features, under specified
circumstances. The regulation is found
at 49 CFR part 595 Subpart C, ‘‘Vehicle
Modifications to Accommodate People
with Disabilities.’’
This final rule included two new
‘‘collections of information,’’ as that
term is defined in 5 CFR part 1320
‘‘Controlling Paperwork Burdens on the
Public’’: Modifier identification and a
document to be provided to the owner
of the modified vehicle stating the
exemptions used for that vehicle and
any reduction in load carrying capacity
of the vehicle of more than 100 kg (220
lbs).
Modifiers who take advantage of the
exemption created by this rule are
required to furnish NHTSA with a
written document providing the
modifier’s name, address, and telephone
number, and a statement that the
modifier is availing itself of the
exemption. The rule requires:
‘‘S595.6 Modifier Identification.
(a) Any motor vehicle repair business
that modifies a motor vehicle to enable
a person with a disability to operate, or
ride as a passenger in, the motor vehicle
and intends to avail itself of the
exemption provided in 49 CFR 595.7
shall furnish the information specified
in paragraphs (a)(1) through (3) of this
section to: Administrator, National

corporate name of the motor vehicle
repair business.
(2) Residence address of the motor
vehicle repair business and State of
incorporation if applicable.
(3) A statement that the motor vehicle
repair business modifies a motor vehicle
to enable a person with a disability to
operate, or ride as a passenger in, the
motor vehicle and intends to avail itself
of the exemption provided in 49 CFR
595.7.
(b) Each motor vehicle repair business
required to submit information under
paragraph (a) of this section shall
submit the information not later than
August 27, 2001. After that date, each
motor vehicle repair business that
modifies a motor vehicle to enable a
person with a disability to operate, or
ride as a passenger in, the motor vehicle
and intends to avail itself of the
exemption provided in 49 CFR 595.7
shall submit the information required
under paragraph (a) not later than 30
days after it first modifies a motor
vehicle to enable a person with a

disability to operate, or ride as a
passenger in, the motor vehicle. Each
motor vehicle repair business who has
submitted required information shall
keep its entry current, accurate and
complete by submitting revised
information not later than 30 days after
the relevant changes in the business
occur.’’
This requirement is a one-time
submission unless changes are made to
the business as described in paragraph
(b).
Affected Public: Businesses that
modify vehicles, after the first retail
sale, so that the vehicle may be used by
persons with disabilities.
Estimated Total Annual Burden:

Title: 49 CFR part 583—Automobile
Parts Content Labeling.
OMB Number: 2127–0573.
Type of Request: Request for public
comment on a previously approved
collection of information.
Abstract: Part 583 establishes
requirements for the disclosure of
information relating to the countries of
origin of the equipment of new
passenger motor vehicles. This
information will be used by NHTSA to
determine whether manufacturers are
complying with the American
Automobile Labeling Act (49 U.S.C.
32304). The American Automobile
Labeling Act requires all new passenger
motor vehicles (including passenger
cars, certain small buses, all light trucks
and multipurpose passenger vehicles
with a gross vehicle weight rating of
8,500 pounds or less), to bear labels
providing information about domestic
and foreign content of their equipment.
With the affixed label on the new
passenger motor vehicles, it serves as an
aid to potential purchasers in the
selection of new passenger motor
vehicles by providing them with
information about the value of the U.S./
Canadian and foreign parts of each
vehicle, the countries of origin of the
engine and transmission, and the site of
the vehicle’s final assembly.
NHTSA anticipates approximately 20
vehicle manufacturers will be affected
by these reporting requirements.
NHTSA does not believe that any of
these 20 manufacturers are a small
PO 00000
Frm 00079
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
57647
business (i.e., one that employs less than
500 persons) since each manufacturer
employs more than 500 persons.
Manufacturers of new passenger motor
vehicles, including passenger cars,
certain small buses, and light trucks
with a gross vehicle weight rating of
8,500 pounds or less, must file a report
annually.
Affected Public: Vehicle
manufacturers.
Number of Respondents: 20.
Total Annual Burden: 2,522 hours per
respondent.
Estimated Total Annual Burden:
NHTSA estimates that the vehicle
manufacturers will incur a total annual
reporting hour and cost burden of
50,440 hours and $3,716,740
respectively. The amount includes
annual burden hours incurred by multistage manufacturers and motor vehicle
equipment suppliers.
Comments are invited on: Whether
the proposed collection of information
is necessary for the proper performance
of the functions of the Department,
including whether the information will
have practical utility; the accuracy of
the Department’s estimate of the burden
of the proposed information collection;
ways to enhance the quality, utility and
clarity of the information to be
collected; and ways to minimize the
burden of the collection of information
on respondents, including the use of
automated collection techniques or
other forms of information technology.

OMB receives it within 30 days of

Title: 49 CFR part 595--Make Inoperative Exemptions.
OMB Control Number: 2127-0635.
Type of Request: Request for public comments on a previously
approved collection of information.
Abstract: On February 27, 2001, NHTSA published a final rule (66 FR
12638) to facilitate the modification of motor vehicles so that persons
with disabilities can drive or ride in them as passengers. In that
final rule, the agency issued a limited exemption from a statutory
provision that prohibits specified types of commercial entities from
either removing safety equipment or features installed on motor
vehicles pursuant to the Federal motor vehicle safety standards or
altering the equipment or features so as to adversely affect their
performance. The exemption is limited in that it allows repair
businesses to modify only certain types of Federally-required safety
equipment and features, under specified circumstances. The regulation
is found at 49 CFR part 595 Subpart C, ``Vehicle Modifications to
Accommodate People with Disabilities.''
This final rule included two new ``collections of information,'' as
that term is defined in 5 CFR part 1320 ``Controlling Paperwork Burdens
on the Public'': Modifier identification and a document to be provided
to the owner of the modified vehicle stating the exemptions used for
that vehicle and any reduction in load carrying capacity of the vehicle
of more than 100 kg (220 lbs).
Modifiers who take advantage of the exemption created by this rule
are required to furnish NHTSA with a written document providing the
modifier's name, address, and telephone number, and a statement that
the modifier is availing itself of the exemption. The rule requires:
``S595.6 Modifier Identification.

(b) Each motor vehicle repair business required to submit
information under paragraph (a) of this section shall submit the
information not later than August 27, 2001. After that date, each motor
vehicle repair business that modifies a motor vehicle to enable a
person with a disability to operate, or ride as a passenger in, the
motor vehicle and intends to avail itself of the exemption provided in
