11522 Federal Register / Vol. 80, No. 41 / Tuesday, March 3, 2015 / Notices 

specifies the grouping of tests applicable 

to each item of glazing. The groupings 

are also summarized in Table I. 

Fracture, Test No. 7 (par. 5.7), is part of 

a grouping of tests specified for item of 

glazing 2 (AS–2). The purpose of the 

fracture test is to ensure that resulting 

fragments are light enough to minimize 

risk of injury after a glazing fracture. Six 

production glazing items must be tested 

(paragraph 3.2.1(3) of ANSI Z26.1 

(1996)) and upon fracture no individual 

piece is to weigh more than 4.25 g 

(paragraph 5.7.4 of ANSI Z26.1 (1996)). 

In the subject petition AGC states that 

it was alerted to a possible 

noncompliance by a customer 

concerning replacement backlites that it 

manufactured for 2003–2008 Toyota 

Matrix vehicles. In response, AGC 

conducted fracture testing in accordance 

with paragraph 5.7 of ANSI Z26.1 (1996) 

and other testing. The fracture testing 

produced fragments weighting over the 

maximum allowed 4.25 g. 

AGC stated its belief that the backlites 

‘‘broke like tempered safety glass and 

exhibited all the characteristics of safety 

glazing material required in ANSI 

Z26.1.’’ The fact that there were 

fragments that weigh over the required 

4.25 g and some fragments weighing 

over 10 g contradicts AGC’s statement. 

A variation in the size of the fragmented 

material points to tempering that is not 

completely consistent with the intent of 

Test No. 7, ‘‘verify that the fragments 

produced by fracture of safety glazing 

materials are such as to minimize risk 

of injury.’’ As stated in ANSI Z26.1 this 

minimization of risk is afforded by 

fragments weighing 4.25 g or less. 

AGC also explains that the failures are 

constrained to the winged side edges of 

the backlites and that 90% of the glass 

meets the 4.25 g requirement. In 

addition, AGC claims that since 

‘‘virtually all’’ of the black ceramic 

painted portion of the winged side 

edges is covered by the door frame and 

on the exterior of the car this portion of 

the backlite curves out towards the sides 

of the vehicle, and that the chances of 

passengers being injured by broken glass 

during a crash are small. 

NHTSA also reviewed Toyota’s 

comment that it submitted to the docket 

in response to the publication of the 

notice of petition. In summary, Toyota 

states that it does not believe that the 

noncompliance poses an unreasonable 

risk to safety due to the small number 

of vehicles with the noncompliant 

glazing installed and because 90% of 

each backlite complies with the fracture 

test requirements. 

The agency does not agree with 

Toyota’s reasoning. The purpose of 

FMVSS No. 205 is to ‘‘reduce injuries’’ 

without regard to the number of 

vehicles involved. However, AGC has 

shown that the noncompliance is 

limited to the winged black ceramic area 

of the backlite. In the vehicle’s interior 

this area sits on top of the frame and is 

not exposed to passengers, and in the 

outside it faces away from the vehicle. 

Therefore, NHTSA concludes that in 

this specific case, due to the location of 

the noncompliant winged section of the 

backlite in conjunction with the shape 

of the subject vehicle, there is a low 

probability that fragments would be 

propelled to the inside of the vehicle in 

the event of a glazing fracture. 

NHTSA Decision: In consideration of 

the foregoing, NHTSA has decided that 

AGC has met its burden of persuasion 

that the subject FMVSS No. 205 

noncompliance is inconsequential to 

motor vehicle safety. Accordingly, 

AGC’s petition is hereby granted and 

AGC is exempted from the obligation of 

providing notification of, and a remedy 

for, that noncompliance under 49 U.S.C. 

30118 and 30120. 

NHTSA notes that the statutory 

provisions (49 U.S.C. 30118(d) and 

30120(h)) that permit manufacturers to 

file petitions for a determination of 

inconsequentiality allow NHTSA to 

exempt manufacturers only from the 

duties found in sections 30118 and 

30120, respectively, to notify owners, 

purchasers, and dealers of a defect or 

noncompliance and to remedy the 

defect or noncompliance. Therefore, this 

decision only applies to the subject 

noncompliant glazing that AGC no 

longer controlled at the time it 

determined that the noncompliance 

existed. However, the granting of this 

petition does not relieve vehicle 

distributors and dealers of the 

prohibitions on the sale, offer for sale, 

or introduction or delivery for 

introduction into interstate commerce of 

the noncompliant glazing under their 

control after AGC notified them that the 

subject noncompliance existed. 

Authority: 49 U.S.C. 30118, 30120: 

delegations of authority at 49 CFR 1.95 and 

501.8.

Background 

The Kingpin Act became law on 

December 3, 1999. The Kingpin Act 

establishes a program targeting the 

activities of significant foreign narcotics 

traffickers and their organizations on a 

worldwide basis. It provides a statutory 

framework for the imposition of 

sanctions against significant foreign 

narcotics traffickers and their 

organizations on a worldwide basis, 

with the objective of denying their 

businesses and agents access to the U.S. 

financial system and the benefits of 

trade and transactions involving U.S. 

companies and individuals. 

The Kingpin Act blocks all property 

and interests in property, subject to U.S. 

jurisdiction, owned or controlled by 

significant foreign narcotics traffickers 

as identified by the President. In 

addition, the Secretary of the Treasury, 

in consultation with the Attorney 

General, the Director of the Central 

Intelligence Agency, the Director of the 

Federal Bureau of Investigation, the
