such as a cargo box or cement mixer, to
a previously manufactured chassis or
chassis-cab, and to persons who alter
previously certified vehicles, other than
by the addition, substitution, or removal
of readily attachable components such
as mirrors or tire and rim assemblies, or
minor finishing operations such as
painting, before the first purchase of the
vehicle for purposes other than resale.
Description of the Likely Respondents
(Including Estimated Number and
Proposed Frequency of Responses to the
Collection of Information): The agency
estimates that it will receive new
submissions of VIN-deciphering
information under part 565 from
approximately 733 manufacturers of
motor vehicles per year. The
manufacturers need only submit the
required information on a one-time
basis, with the proviso that they notify
the agency of any changes in the
information on file within 30 days from
the date that any change in that
information occurs. In addition, the
agency estimates that approximately
7,600 manufacturers of motor vehicles
of all types, including manufacturers of
passenger cars, multipurpose passenger
vehicles, trucks, buses, trailers,
motorcycles and low-speed vehicles, as
well as incomplete vehicle
manufacturers, intermediate and finalstage manufacturers of vehicles built in
two or more stages, and vehicle alterers,
will need to comply with the
certification labeling requirements of
part 567.
Estimate of the Total Annual
Reporting and Recordkeeping Burden of
the Collection of Information: 733 hours
for supplying required VIN-deciphering
information to NHTSA under part 565;
88,000 hours for meeting the labeling
requirements of part 567.
Estimate of the Total Annual Costs of
the Collection of Information: Assuming
that the part 565 information is
submitted to the agency’s website by
company officers or employees
compensated at an average rate of
$30.00 per hour, the agency estimates
that $21,990 will be expended on an
annual basis by all manufacturers
required to submit that information (733
hours × $30.00 = $21,990). Additionally,
assuming that it will take an average of
.005 hours to affix a certification label
to each of the approximately 17,600,000
vehicles produced each year for sale in
the United States, at an average cost of
$20.00 per hour, the agency estimates
that roughly $1,760,000 will be
expended by all manufacturers to
comply with the labeling requirements
of part 567 (17,600,000 vehicles × .005
hours = 88,000 hours; 88,000 hours ×
$20.00 = $1,760,000).

objective is to bring taxpayers that have
used undisclosed foreign accounts and
undisclosed foreign entities to avoid or
evade tax into compliance with United
States tax laws. Form 15023 is part of
the Decline and Withdrawal Campaign,
related to Offshore Voluntary Disclosure
Program (OVDI) taxpayers.

of information must be retained as long

in the administration of any internal
revenue law. Generally, tax returns and
tax return information are confidential,
