Title: Application for Motor Vehicle Emission Certification and
Fuel Economy Labeling (EPA ICR #783.33; OMB #2060-0104). This ICR
requests renewal of an existing clearance.
Abstract: Motor vehicle and motor vehicle engine manufacturers
maintain records and submit detailed reports to EPA describing their
planned product line with a description of emission control systems,
and test data organized by ``engine family'' groups expected to have
similar emissions and ``model types'' with similar fuel economy.
Manufacturers must maintain records on information submitted to EPA.
The EPA, the IRS and the DOT use the information to verify compliance
with the Clean Air Act, gas guzzler taxes in the Omnibus Reconciliation
Act, 1990, and Corporate Average Fuel Economy Standards respectively.
State and local governments also use the information in their
inspection/maintenance programs. More specifically, the EPA uses the
information to issue certificates of conformity and fuel economy
labels, to determine that manufacturers conducted appropriate tests and
verify that vehicles comply with prescribed emission standards.
Burden Statement: The public reporting burden for this collection
of information is estimated to average [[Page 29590]] 16,010 hours per
response, including time for reviewing instructions, searching existing
data sources, gathering and maintaining the data needed, and completing
and reviewing the collection of information. In addition, each
respondent will spend an estimated 4981 hours per year conducting tests
and 1522 hours per year maintaining records required for maintaining
the records required for reporting and enforcement.
Respondents: Manufacturers of motor vehicles and motor vehicle
engines.
Estimated Number of Respondents: 68.
Estimated Total Annual Burden on Respondents: 1,530,900 hours.
Frequency of Collection: Annually.
Send comments regarding the burden estimate, or any other aspect of
this collection of information, including suggestions for reducing
burden, (please refer to EPA ICR #783.33 and OMB #2060-0104) to:
