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; 

(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 compliance with these 

requirements, NHTSA asks for public 

comments on the following proposed 

collections of information: 

Type of Request: Extension of 

clearance. 

OMB Control Number: 2127–0045. 

Form Number: This collection of 

information uses no form. 

Title: 49 CFR 556, Petitions for 

Inconsequentiality. 

Affected Public: Businesses or other 

for profit entities. 

Abstract: If a motor vehicle or item of 

replacement motor vehicle equipment is 

determined to contain a defect related to 

motor vehicle safety or not to comply 

with an applicable Federal motor 

vehicle safety standard (FMVSS), the 

manufacturer is required under 49 

U.S.C. 30118 to furnish NHTSA and 

owners, purchasers, and dealers of the 

motor vehicle or motor vehicle 

equipment with notification of the 

defect or noncompliance. The 

manufacturer must also remedy the 

defect or noncompliance without charge 

under 49 U.S.C. 30120. 

A manufacturer may be exempted 

from these requirements under 49 

U.S.C. 30118(d) if the agency decides, 

upon application of the manufacturer, 

that the defect or noncompliance is 

inconsequential as it relates to motor 

vehicle safety. That section provides 

that the agency may only take such 

action after publishing notice in the 

Federal Register and providing an 

opportunity for any interested person to 

present information, views, and 

arguments. 

Regulations implementing this 

provision are found in 49 CFR part 556 

Exemption for Inconsequential Defect or 

Noncompliance. The regulations 

provide that each petition submitted 

under part 556 must: 

(1) Be written in the English language; 

(2) Be submitted in three copies to 

NHTSA; 

(3) State the full name and address of 

the applicant, the nature of its 

organization (e.g., individual, 

partnership, or corporation) and the 

name of the State or county under the 

laws of which it is organized; 

(4) Describe the motor vehicle or item 

of replacement equipment, including 

the number involved and the period of 

production, and the defect or 

noncompliance concerning which an 

exemption is sought, and 

(5) Set forth all data, views, and 

arguments of the petitioner supporting 

the petition. See 49 CFR 556.4(b). 

The regulations also provide that the 

petition must be accompanied by three 

copies of the report of the defect or 

noncompliance that the manufacturer 

has compiled for submission to NHTSA 

under 49 CFR part 573 Defect and 

Noncompliance Responsibility and 

Reports, and be submitted no later than 

30 days after the manufacturer 

determines the existence of the defect or 

noncompliance or is notified that 

NHTSA has determined the existence of 

the defect or noncompliance. See 49 

CFR 556.4(b)(6) and (c). 

The agency receives, on average, 30 

petitions per year seeking exemptions 

under part 556 for an inconsequential 

defect or noncompliance. The agency 

estimates that it would take, on average, 

five hours for a manufacturer to 

compile, organize, and submit the 

information needed to support each 

petition. 

Estimated Annual Burden: 150 hours. 

Number of Respondents: 30. 

Comments are invited on: Whether 

the proposed collection of information 

is necessary for the proper performance 

of the functions of the Department, 

including whether the information will 

have practical utility; the accuracy of 

the Department’s estimate of the burden 

of the proposed information collection; 

ways to enhance the quality, utility and 

clarity of the information to be 

collected; and ways to minimize the 

burden of the collection of information 

on respondents, including the use of 

automated collection techniques or 

other forms of information technology.
