Autostadt West of West Sacramento,
California (Registered Importer R–06–

whether nonconforming MY 2006
Penman Lightweight GS cargo trailers
are eligible for importation into the
United States, and included, as part of
their petition, information intended to
demonstrate that non-U.S. certified MY
2006 Penman Lightweight GS cargo
trailers conform to some FMVSS and are
capable of being altered to comply with
all other standards to which they were
not originally manufactured to conform.
Specifically, the petitioner claims that
MY 2006 Penman Lightweight GS cargo
trailers, as originally manufactured,
conform to Standard No. 106, Brake

capable of being readily altered to meet

Rims: Inspection of tires and rims for
certification markings, replacement of
any noncompliant tires and rims with
parts that meet the standard and
installation of the required tire
information placard.

Replacement of brake fluid with
compliant brake fluid.
The petitioner also notes that the
vehicle must be fitted with a
certification label in order to meet the
requirements of 49 CFR 567,
Certification.
All comments received before the
close of business on the closing date
indicated above will be considered, and
will be available for examination in the
