SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

National Highway Traffic Safety Administration

    Title: 49 CFR 571.116, Motor Vehicle Brake Fluids.
    OMB Number: 2127-0521.

[[Page 55629]]

    Type of Request: Extension of a currently approved collection. This 
request for an extension of a currently approved collection, if 
approved, will allow the Department of Transportation (DOT) to continue 
to enforce the labeling requirements for motor vehicle brake fluid and 
hydraulic mineral oil containers as specified in FMVSS No. 116, Motor 
Vehicle Brake Fluids.
    Abstract: Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 116, Motor 
Vehicle Brake Fluids, specifies performance and design requirements for 
motor vehicle brake fluids and hydraulic system mineral oils. Section 
5.2.2 of the standard specifies labeling requirements for manufacturers 
and packagers of brake fluids as well as packagers of hydraulic system 
mineral oils. The label on a container of motor vehicle brake fluid or 
hydraulic system mineral oil is permanently attached, clearly states 
the contents of the container, and includes a DOT symbol indicating 
that the contents of the container meet the requirements of FMVSS No. 
116. The label is necessary to help ensure that these fluids are used 
for their intended purpose only and the containers are properly 
disposed of when empty. Improper use, storage, or disposal of these 
fluids could represent a significant safety hazard for the operators of 
vehicles or equipment in which they are used and for the environment.
    Affected Public: Business or other for profit organizations.
    Estimated Total Annual Burden: 7000 hours.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 200.

ADDRESSES: Send comments, within 30 days, to the Office of Information 
and Regulatory Affairs, Office of Management and Budget, 725 17th 
Street, NW., Washington, DC 20503, Attention NHTSA Desk Officer or to 
the Docket Management System, Docket Number NHTSA-2010-0085 at http://
www.regulations.gov/.
    Comments are invited on whether the proposed collection of 
information is necessary for the proper performance of the functions of 
the DOT, including whether the information will have practical utility; 
the accuracy of the DOT 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 or the Docket Management System is most 
effective if OMB or the Docket Management System receives it prior to 
October 13, 2010.

    Issued on: September 3, 2010.
