SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Pursuant to the requirements of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.), before an agency submits a proposed collection of information to OMB for approval, it must first publish a document in the Federal Register providing a 60-day comment period and otherwise consult with members of the public and affected agencies concerning each proposed collection of information. In accordance with this requirement, NHTSA published a Federal Register notice on June 12, 2023 (88 FR 38124) seeking public comment on its intention to seek approval from OMB for a new information collection that will allow NHTSA to provide first responders with a distinct mechanism to report to NHTSA’s Office of Defects Investigation (ODI) regarding fatalities, injuries, or crashes that may have been caused due to an alleged defect. Currently, ODI collects Vehicle Owner Questionnaires (VOQ) to gather information from the public about alleged or suspected safety defects. The FRIAR collection will be a separate method to collect safety and defect related information from the first responder community that will expedite and prioritize ODI’s review of such reports. In addition to publishing the 60-day notice, and consistent with the requirements of the Paperwork Reduction Act, NHTSA conducted additional outreach regarding this effort by highlighting NHTSA’s publication of its June 12, 2023 notice during a presentation at the IACP Impaired Driving and Traffic Safety Conference on August 9, 2023. The conference is widely attended by potential FRIAR respondents and other traffic safety professionals and some attendees expressed interest in providing comments on the notice. In order to PO 00000 Frm 00126 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 56121 provide additional time for these comments to be submitted, NHTSA is extending the comment period by 20 days.
