Abstract: In this collection of information, disposal facilities and salvage auctions must provide documentation and certifications to ensure that the trade-in vehicles received are "crushed or shredded."

Emergency Justfication: Ms. Chandana Achanta Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs Office of Management and Budget Washington, D.C. Dear Ms. Achanta: Pursuant to Office of Management and Budget (OMB) procedures established at 5 CFR Part 1320, Controlling Paperwork Burdens on the Public, I ask that the following collection of information, “Car Allowance Rebate System (CARS) Program, Disposal Facility, Salvage Auction and Compliance Inspection Information,” (OMB Control No. 2127-0658) be processed pursuant to section 1320.13 Emergency processing. I have determined that this information must be collected prior to the expiration of time periods established under Part 1320, and that this information is essential to NHTSA’s mission to implement this Program so that we may issue ensure that the qualified disposal facilities and salvage auctions that are the subject of this collection of information, have properly disposed of used trade-in vehicles, and that NHTSA be able to conduct random inspections of motor vehicle dealers, disposal facilities, and salvage auctions that participated in the CARS Program. . NHTSA cannot reasonably comply with the normal clearance procedures because the use of normal clearance procedures is reasonably likely to cause NHTSA to be unable to collect the information and conduct random audits to timely assess the efficacy of the CARS Program and identify possible instances of fraud or misappropriation. Please approve or disapprove the collection of information by January 8, 2009. As you are aware, NHTSA has taken all practicable steps to consult with the EPA, other agencies, and members of the public in order to minimize the burden of this collection of information. Sincerely yours, Ronald Medford Acting Deputy Administrator
