comments.
AGENCY:
The DOT invites public
comments about our intention to request
the Office of Management and Budget
(OMB) approval to reinstate an

agency can collect certain information
from the public, it must receive
approval from OMB. Under procedures
established by the Paperwork Reduction
Act of 1995, before seeking OMB
approval, Federal agencies must solicit
public comment on proposed
collections of information, including
extensions and reinstatement of
previously approved collections.
DATES: Written comments should be
submitted by May 21, 2019.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title: 49 CFR part 569 & 574,
Compliance and Labeling of Motor
Vehicle Tires and Rims.
SUMMARY:
E:\FR\FM\22MRN1.SGM
22MRN1
Federal Register / Vol. 84, No. 56 / Friday, March 22, 2019 / Notices
OMB Control Number: 2127–0503.
Type of Request: Reinstatement of a
previously approved collection of
information.
Abstract: The labeling of motor
vehicle tires and rims with the
information required by regulations and
standards benefits motor vehicle
manufacturers and consumers.
Primarily, these labeling requirements
help ensure tires are mounted on
appropriate rims and the rims and tires
are mounted on vehicles for which they
were intended. If tires and rims were
not labeled, mismatching of tire and rim
sizes would likely occur, often resulting
in poor tire performance. The absence of
the vehicle label specifying vehicle
loads, axle loads, and recommended tire
inflation pressure would likely result in
improper tire selection by a tire dealer
or vehicle owner. Mismatching of rims
and tires can greatly reduce the
performance of tires, may cause tire and
rim failure, and may result in vehicle
handling and stability problems, which
could result in loss of vehicle control.
Federal Motor Vehicle Safety
Standard (FMVSS) Nos. 109, 117, 119,
129, and 139 establish a fixed format for
the labeling requirements to be placed
into or onto both sidewalls of tires
manufactured for use on motor vehicles.
Each new tire manufacturer, brand
name owner, and retreader must label
each tire manufactured by engraving tire
and retreaded tire molds with the
appropriate labeling information.
FMVSS Nos. 110 and 120 specify a
fixed format for the placard labeling
requirements to be placed on each
motor vehicle. In addition, FMVSS Nos.
110 and 120 require additional
information be labeled onto the finished
rim used on vehicles covered by this
standard.
Affected Public: New tire
manufacturers, manufacturers of
retreaded tires, and manufacturers of
motor vehicles.
Frequency: Once.
Number of Respondents: 1,800.
The agency estimates the number of
respondents to be 1,800. This
10887
corresponds to approximately 20 new
tire manufacturers and 780
manufacturers of retreaded tires, both
domestically and internationally
located, that must label motor vehicle
tires they manufacture in accordance
with FMVSS Nos. 109, 117, 119, 129,
139, and Regulations Part 569 and 574.
Additionally, the agency estimates
approximately 1,000 manufacturers of
motor vehicles (trucks, buses,
automobiles, motorcycles, and trailers),
both domestically and internationally,
that must provide placard labeling for
the vehicles they manufacture. NHTSA
estimates about 142,555,506 annual
responses.
Estimated Total Annual Burden
Hours: 274,491.
The estimated total annual burden of
the collection of information for new
tire manufacturers, retreaders, and rim
manufacturers to label the motor vehicle
tires and rims is 274,491 hours. This
estimate is the sum of the total yearly
burden from Tables 1 and 2 (190,463
hours + 84,028 hours = 274,491 hours).

AGENCY:
This document grants in full
Toyota Motor North America, Inc.’s,
(Toyota) petition for an exemption of
the model year 2020 C–HR vehicle line
from the Federal Motor Vehicle Theft
Prevention Standard (Theft Prevention
Standard). The petition is granted
because the agency has determined that
the antitheft device to be placed on the
line as standard equipment is likely to
be as effective in reducing and deterring

motor vehicle theft as compliance with
the parts-marking requirements of the
Theft Prevention Standard.
DATES: The exemption granted by this
notice is effective beginning with the
2020 model year (MY).
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION, CONTACT: Ms.
Carlita Ballard, Office of International
Policy, Fuel Economy and Consumer
Programs, NHTSA, West Building,
W43–439, NRM–310, 1200 New Jersey
Avenue SE, Washington, DC 20590. Ms.
Ballard’s phone number is 202–366–
5222. Her fax number is 202–493–2990.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In a
petition dated September 25, 2018,
Toyota requested an exemption from the
parts-marking requirements of the Theft
Prevention Standard for the C–HR
vehicle line beginning with model year
(MY) 2020. The petition requested an
exemption from parts-marking pursuant
to 49 CFR part 543, ‘‘Exemption from
Vehicle Theft Prevention Standard’’,
based on the installation of an antitheft
device as standard equipment for the
entire vehicle line.
Under 49 CFR part 543.5(a), a
manufacturer may petition NHTSA to
grant an exemption for one vehicle line
per model year. In its petition, Toyota
provided a detailed description and
diagram of the identity, design, and
location of the components of the
antitheft device for the C–HR vehicle
line. Toyota stated its MY 2020 C–HR
vehicle line will be installed with an
engine immobilizer device as standard
equipment. Toyota also stated it will
offer two entry/start systems on its C–
HR vehicle line. Specifically, Toyota
stated the C–HR vehicle line will be
offered with a ‘‘smart entry and start’’
system or a ‘‘transponder key and start’’
system. Key components of the ‘‘smart
entry and start’’ system on the C–HR
vehicle line will include, a certification
engine control unit (ECU), engine
switch, steering lock ECU, security
indicator, door control receiver,
electrical key, ID code box, and an
PO 00000
Frm 00119
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
engine control module (ECM). Key
components of the ‘‘transponder key
and start’’ system on the C–HR vehicle
line will include, a transponder key
ECU assembly, transponder key coil,
security indicator, ignition key and an
ECM. Toyota stated there will also be
position switches installed on the
vehicle to protect the hood and doors
from unauthorized tampering/opening.
Toyota further explained that locking
the doors can be accomplished through
use of a key, wireless switch, or its
smart entry system, and unauthorized
tampering with the hood or door
without using one of these methods will
cause the position switches to trigger its
antitheft device to operate. Toyota will
not incorporate an audible and visual
alarm system on its vehicle line.
Toyota’s submission is considered a
complete petition as required by 49 CFR
543.7 in that it meets the general
requirements contained in § 543.5 and
the specific content requirements of
§ 543.6.
In addressing the specific content
requirements of § 543.6, Toyota
provided information on the reliability
and durability of its proposed device.
To ensure reliability and durability of
the device, Toyota conducted tests
based on its own specified standards.
Toyota provided a detailed list of the
tests conducted (i.e., high and low
temperature operation, strength, impact,
vibration, electro-magnetic interference,
etc.). Toyota stated it believes its device
is reliable and durable because it
complied with its own specific design
standards, and the antitheft device is
installed on other vehicle lines for
which the agency has granted a partsmarking exemption. As an additional
measure of reliability and durability,
Toyota stated its vehicle key cylinders
are covered with casting cases to
prevent the key cylinder from easily
being broken. Toyota further explained
there are approximately 10,000
combinations for inner cut keys, which
