Federal Register / Vol. 77, No. 208 / Friday, October 26, 2012 / Proposed Rules 65351 

will consider these comments before 

taking final action. 

VI. Statutory and Executive Order 

Reviews 

This action proposes to make a 

determination of attainment based on 

air quality and to suspend certain 

federal requirements, and thus, would 

not impose additional requirements 

beyond those imposed by State law. For 

that reason, this proposed action: 

• Is not a ‘‘significant regulatory 

action’’ subject to review by the Office 

of Management and Budget under 

Executive Order 12866 (58 FR 51735, 

October 4, 1993); 

• Does not impose an information 

collection burden under the provisions 

of the Paperwork Reduction Act (44 

U.S.C. 3501 et seq.); 

• Is certified as not having a 

significant economic impact on a 

substantial number of small entities 

under the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 

U.S.C. 601 et seq.); 

• Does not contain any unfunded 

mandate or significantly or uniquely 

affect small governments, as described 

in the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act 

of 1995 (Pub. L. 104–4); 

• Does not have Federalism 

implications as specified in Executive 

Order 13132 (64 FR 43255, August 10, 

1999); 

• Is not an economically significant 

regulatory action based on health or 

safety risks subject to Executive Order 

13045 (62 FR 19885, April 23, 1997); 

• Is not a significant regulatory action 

subject to Executive Order 13211 (66 FR 

28355, May 22, 2001); 

• Is not subject to requirements of 

Section 12(d) of the National 

Technology Transfer and Advancement 

Act of 1995 (15 U.S.C. 272 note) because 

application of those requirements would 

be inconsistent with the CAA; and 

• Does not provide EPA with the 

discretionary authority to address 

disproportionate human health or 

environmental effects with practical, 

appropriate, and legally permissible 

methods under Executive Order 12898 

(59 FR 7629, February 16, 1994). 

In addition, this proposed action does 

not have Tribal implications as 

specified by Executive Order 13175 (65 

FR 67249, November 9, 2000), because 

the SIP obligations discussed herein do 

not apply to Indian Tribes and thus this 

proposed action will not impose 

substantial direct costs on Tribal 

governments or preempt Tribal law.

a second comment period on this action. 

Any parties interested in commenting 

on this action should do so at this time. 

Please note that if EPA receives adverse

of the rule, EPA may adopt as final

subject of an adverse comment. For 

additional information, see the direct 

final rule which is located in the rules

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

The National Traffic and Motor 

Vehicle Safety Act (49 U.S.C. Chapter 

301) (‘‘Safety Act’’) and NHTSA’s 

regulations require vehicle 

manufacturers to certify that their 

vehicles comply with all applicable 

Federal motor vehicle safety standards 

(FMVSSs) (see 49 U.S.C. 30112; 49 CFR 

part 567) at the time of manufacture. A 

vehicle manufacturer, distributor, 

dealer, or repair business, except as 

indicated below, may not knowingly 

make inoperative any part of a device or 

element of design installed in or on a 

motor vehicle in compliance with an 

applicable FMVSS (see 49 U.S.C. 

30122). NHTSA has the authority to 

issue regulations that exempt regulated 

entities from the ‘‘make inoperative’’ 

provision (49 U.S.C. 30122(c)). The 

agency has used that authority to 

promulgate 49 CFR part 595 subpart C, 

‘‘Make Inoperative Exemptions, Vehicle 

Modifications to Accommodate People 

with Disabilities.’’ 

49 CFR part 595 subpart C sets forth 

exemptions from the make inoperative 

provision to permit, under limited 

circumstances, vehicle modifications 

that take the vehicles out of compliance 

with certain FMVSSs when the vehicles 

are modified to be used by persons with 

disabilities after the first retail sale of 

the vehicle for purposes other than 

resale. The regulation was promulgated 

to facilitate the modification of motor 

vehicles so that persons with disabilities 

can drive or ride in them. The 

regulation involves information and 

disclosure requirements and limits the
