DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION 

National Highway Traffic Safety 

Administration 

[Docket No. NHTSA–2009–0059] 

Reports, Forms, and Recordkeeping 

Requirements 

AGENCY: National Highway Traffic 

Safety Administration (NHTSA), 

Department of Transportation (DOT). 

ACTION: Request for public comment.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the 

Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, 

before a proposed collection of 

information is submitted to OMB for 

approval, Federal agencies 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. The OMB has 

promulgated regulations describing 

what must be included in such a 

document. Under the OMB regulation 

(at 5 CFR 1320.8(d)), an agency must ask 

for public comment on the following: 

(i) Whether the proposed collection of 

information is necessary for the proper 

performance of the functions of the 

agency, including whether the 

information will have practical utility; 

(ii) The accuracy of the agency’s 

estimate of the burden of the proposed 

collection of information, including the 

validity of the methodology and 

assumptions used; 

(iii) How to enhance the quality, 

utility, and clarity of the information to 

be collected; and 

(iv) How to minimize the burden of 

the collection of information on those 

who are to respond, including the use 

of appropriate automated, electronic, 

mechanical, or other technological 

collection techniques or other forms of 

information technology, e.g., permitting 

electronic submission of responses. 

In this notice, we are soliciting public 

comment on the following collection of 

information of manufacturers’ 

production plan data for model years 

(MYs) 2008–2020 in connection with 

NHTSA’s establishing of passenger car 

and light truck CAFE standards for 

model years 2012–2016. We are asking 

OMB for processing through emergency 

procedures established at 5 CFR Section 

1320.13, and have asked OMB to 

approve or disapprove this collection 

within a week. 

Title: 49 CFR Parts 531 and 533 

Passenger Car Average Fuel Economy 

Standards—Model Years 2008–2020; 

Light Truck Average Fuel Economy 

Standards—Model Years 2008–2020; 

Production Plan Data. 

OMB Control Number: 2127–0665. 

Form Number: There are no standard 

forms associated with this collection of 

information. 

Requested Expiration Date of 

Approval: Ninety days from approval 

date. 

Type of Request: Emergency 

clearance. 

Summary of the Collection of 

Information: In this collection of 

information, NHTSA is requesting any 

updates to previously submitted future 

product plans from vehicle 

manufacturers, as well as production 

data through the recent past, including 

data about engines and transmissions 

for model year (MY) 2008 through MY 

2020 passenger cars and light trucks and 

the assumptions underlying those plans. 

The submission of product plan 

information by manufacturers to 

NHTSA is voluntary. 

NHTSA requests information for MYs 

2008–2020 to supplement other 

information used by NHTSA in 

developing a realistic forecast of the MY 

2012–2016 vehicle market, and in 

evaluating what technologies may 

feasibly be applied by manufacturers to 

achieve compliance with the MY 2012– 

2016 standards. Information regarding 

earlier model years may help the agency 

to better account for cumulative effects 

such as volume- and time-based 

reductions in costs, and also may help 

to reveal product mix and technology 

application trends during model years 

for which the agency is currently 

receiving actual corporate average fuel 

economy (CAFE) compliance data. 

Information regarding later model years 

may help the agency gain a better 

understanding of how manufacturers’ 

plans through MY 2016 relate to their 

longer-term expectations regarding 

Energy Independence and Security Act 

requirements, market trends, and 

prospects for more advanced 

technologies. 

NHTSA will also consider 

information from model years before 

and after MYs 2012–2016 when 

reviewing manufacturers’ planned 

schedules for redesigning and 

freshening their products, in order to 

examine how manufacturers anticipate 

tying technology introduction to 

product design schedules and to 

consider how the agency should 

account for those schedules in its 

analysis for the final rule. In addition, 

the agency is requesting information 

regarding manufacturers’ estimates of 

the future vehicle population, and fuel 

economy improvements and 

incremental costs attributed to this 

notice. 

Description of the Need for the 

Information and the Proposed Use of 

the Information: 

NHTSA needs the information 

described above to aid in assessing what 

CAFE standards should be established 

for model years 2012 through 2016 

passenger cars and light trucks. 

Description of the Likely Respondents 

(Including Estimated Number and 

Proposed Frequency of Response to the 

Collection of Information): 

It is estimated that this collection 

affects approximately 22 motor vehicle 

manufacturers. The information that is 

the subject of this collection of 

information is collected once, for the 

final rule. 

Estimate of the Total Annual 

Reporting and Recordkeeping Burden 

Resulting from the Collection of 

Information: The estimated burden is as 

follows: 

It is estimated that this collection 

affects approximately 22 vehicle 

manufacturers. One major manufacturer 

(General Motors) estimated their burden 

to be approximately 4,300 hours. The 

burden to other manufacturers was 

estimated using sales weights relative to 

General Motors’ total sales (e.g., if a 

manufacturer produces 50 percent as 

many vehicles as General Motors, their 

burden is estimated to be 4,300 * 0.5 = 

2150 hours). Therefore the burden to 

each manufacturer depends on the 

number of vehicles that manufacturer 

produces. The total estimated burden is 

16,000 hours annually.

1The national median hourly rate for mechanical 

engineers, May 2008, according to the Bureau of 

Labor Statistics, is $36.02. See http://www.bls.gov/ 

oes/2008/may/oes_nat.htm#b17–0000 (last accessed 

August 26, 2009). 

Number of Affected Vehicle Manufacturers .................................................................................................................................... 22 

Annual Labor Hours for Each Manufacturer To Prepare and Submit Required Information ......................................................... Variable. 

Total Annual Information Collection Burden ............................................................................................................................ 16,000 hours. 

The monetized cost associated with 

this information collection is 

determined by multiplying the total 

labor hours by an appropriate labor rate. 

For this information collection, we 

believe vehicle manufacturers will use 

mechanical engineers to prepare and 

submit the data. Therefore, we are 

applying a labor rate of $36.02 per hour 

which is the median national wage for 

mechanical engineers.1 Thus, the 

estimated monetized annual cost is 

16,000 hours × $36.02 per hour = 

$576,320.
