Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 89, No. 205 / Wednesday, October 23, 2024 / Notices Taking into account the universe established (59 entities) and those that have disseminated a VSSA or suggested a web page through the VSSA Index (27), NHTSA believes there is a potential for another 32 entities to publish a VSSA; however, the maturity of the entity itself, the development of the ADS, and the partnerships established within the industry, NHTSA does not assume all 32 will develop a VSSA over the coming three years. This is bolstered by the fact that it has taken seven years for dissemination of 27 VSSAs. NHTSA will use the most recent three-year average of four VSSAs per year for an estimation of VSSA dissemination or publication for the duration of this information collection extension. Therefore, the number of respondents annually is four and the frequency is once per year. Estimating Burden for Each Respondent: Components of the Voluntary Guidance in ADS 2.0 and public disclosure of the VSSA have not changed since release in 2017. Therefore, these estimates of time to summarize how an entity is addressing the safety elements remains the same as the current information collection. NHTSA has not received comments that these estimates are erroneous. Development of a VSSA is expected to involve burden for format, content, and summary, varying by safety element. NHTSA estimates that each entity will spend approximately 600 hours to develop and disseminate a VSSA. Table 2 provides a breakdown of burden hours by safety element. amended; 49 CFR 1.49; and DOT Order 1351.29A.

Estimated Total Annual Burden Cost: $282,384. NHTSA estimates the hourly cost associated with preparing VSSAs to be $117.66 1 per hour using the Bureau of Labor Statistics’ mean hourly wage estimate for architectural and engineering managers in the motor vehicle manufacturing industry (Standard Occupational Classification # 11–9041). Therefore, the estimated annual burden to each respondent is $70,596 (600 hours × $117.66). Therefore, the annual estimated labor costs to all respondents to this collection is $282,384. This reflects a decrease of $885,936 for labor costs annually.
