Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 176 / Tuesday, September 13, 2022 / Notices
the invoice is 20 minutes. NHTSA
estimates that there are approximately
4,250 vehicles modified under
exemptions provided by 49 CFR 595.7
each year. Therefore, NHTSA estimates
the total burden associated with
providing disclosures to vehicle owners
is 1,417 hours (20 minutes × 4,250
vehicles = 1,416.67 hours).
To calculate the labor cost associated
with the 1,417 burden hours for the
disclosure document requirement,
NHTSA looked at the average hourly
wage for ‘‘Mechanical Engineering
Technicians’’ (BLS Occupation code 17–
3027). With the BLS’s average hourly
wage of $28.00 (which represents 70.4%
of total compensation according to the
Bureau of Labor Statistics), NHTSA
estimates the hourly labor costs to be
$39.78 for ‘‘Mechanical Engineering
Technicians (BLS Occupation code 17–
3027). Therefore, NHTSA estimates the
total labor cost associated with the 1,417
burden hours (for providing disclosure
documents to vehicle owners by
‘‘engineering technicians’’) to be
$56,368 (1,417 × $39.78 = $56,368.28).
Information Collection 3: Retaining a
Copy of the Document Provided to
Vehicle Owners
NHTSA estimates that there are no
additional burden hours associated with
the requirement to retain a copy of the
disclosures provided to vehicle owners.
Similarly, NHTSA estimates that there
is no burden beyond the ordinary course
of business associated with the
requirement that rental companies
retain records related to the
modification for a period of five years.
Accordingly, there are also no labor
costs associated with this requirement.
Table 1 provides a summary of the
estimated burden hours and labor costs
associated with this collection of
information request.

Estimated Total Annual Burden Cost:
NHTSA estimates that there are no
additional costs associated with this
information collection request. There
will be no additional material cost
associated with complying with this
requirement because no additional
materials need to be used except those
used to prepare the invoice in the
normal course of business. We are
assuming that it is normal and
customary in the course of vehicle
modification business to prepare an
invoice, to provide a copy of the invoice
to the vehicle owner, and to keep a copy
of the invoice for five years after the
vehicle is delivered to the owner in
finished form.
