49 CFR Part 571

[Docket No. NHTSA-2024-0058]
RIN 2127-AM64

Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards; FMVSS No. 213, ``Child 
Restraint Systems,'' FMVSS No. 213a, ``Child Restraint Systems--Side 
Impact Protection,'' and FMVSS No. 213b, ``Child Restraint Systems''--
Response to Petitions for Reconsideration; Correction

AGENCY: National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), 
Department of Transportation (DOT).

ACTION: Final rule; response to petitions for reconsideration; 
correction.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: On October 9, 2024, NHTSA issued a final rule responding to 
petitions for reconsideration of a June 2022 final rule establishing 
Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) No. 213a and the December 
2023 final rule establishing FMVSS No. 213b. That rule contained an 
amendatory instruction to amend a section of text that did not exist. 
This document provides the correct amendatory instruction. It does not 
change the regulatory text set forth in the October 9, 2024 final rule.

DATES: Effective on December 4, 2024.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: For technical issues, you may call 
Cristina Echemendia, Office of Crashworthiness Standards (telephone: 
(202) 366-6345). For legal issues, you may call Matthew Filpi, Office 
of Chief Counsel (telephone: (202) 366-2992). Address: National Highway 
Traffic Safety Administration, U.S. Department of Transportation, 1200 
New Jersey Avenue SE, West Building, Washington, DC 20590.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This document corrects a drafting error in 
the amendatory instructions of an October 9, 2024 final rule (89 FR 
81836) responding to petitions for reconsideration of a June 30, 2022 
final rule (87 FR 39234) establishing FMVSS No. 213a and a December 5, 
2023 final rule (88 FR 84514) establishing FMVSS No. 213b. Amendatory 
instruction 2.f in that final rule directed that, among other sections, 
section ``S5.8.2.1 introductory text'' of FMVSS No. 213 be revised. 
However, S5.8.2.1 has no introductory text--only a title. As set forth 
in the revised regulatory text, NHTSA intended to amend the 
introductory text of S5.8.2.1(a). Because of this drafting error, the 
Code of Federal Regulations could not be updated with the revised 
regulatory text. This document sets forth the same regulatory text set 
forth in the October 9, 2024 final rule with the proper amendatory 
instruction so that the revised regulatory text published on October 9, 
2024 can be incorporated into the Code of Federal Regulations. Good 
cause exists for this change to be effective immediately because the 
regulatory text has not been altered from what was published on October 
9, 2024.

List of Subjects in 49 CFR Part 571

    Imports, Incorporation by Reference, Motor vehicle safety, Motor 
vehicles, and Tires.

    In consideration of the foregoing, NHTSA corrects 49 CFR part 571 
by making the following correcting amendment.
