SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

National Highway Traffic Safety Administration

    Title: 49 CFR Part 564--Replaceable Light Source Dimensional 
Information Collection.
    OMB Number: 2127-0563.
    Type of Request: Request for public comment on a previously 
approved collection of information.
    Abstract: The information to be collected is in response to 49 CFR 
part 564, ``Replaceable Light Source Dimensional Information.'' Persons 
desiring to use newly designed replaceable headlamp light sources are 
required to submit interchangeability and performance specifications to 
the agency. After a short agency review to assure completeness, the 
information is placed in a public docket for use by any person who 
would like to manufacture headlamp light sources for highway motor 
vehicles. In Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 108, Lamps, 
reflective devices and associated equipment, ``Part 564 submissions'' 
are referenced as being the source of information regarding the 
performance and interchangeability information for legal headlamp light 
sources, whether original equipment or replacement equipment. The 
submitted information about headlamp light sources becomes the basis 
for certification of compliance with safety standards.
    NHTSA anticipates approximately 7 bulb manufacturers will be 
affected by these reporting requirements. NHTSA does not believe that 
any of these manufacturers are a small business (i.e., one that employs 
less than 500 persons) since each manufacturer employs more than 500 
persons.
    Affected Public: Businesses or other profit organizations.
    Estimated Total Annual Burden: NHTSA estimates that the 
manufacturers will incur a total annual reporting hour of 28 hours.
    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. A comment to OMB is most effective if OMB 
receives it within 30 days of publication.

    Authority: Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, 44 U.S.C. Chapter 
35; delegation of authority at 49 CFR 1.95.

Associate Administrator for Rulemaking.
