Short Statement: There is an 82 hour increase adjustment to Item 13 on the OMB form 83-I. The reason for this increase is explained as follows. At present, OMB Clearance 2127-0599 gives NHTSA approval to collect 1,260 burden hours a year from industry, or 61 hours from each of 22 manufacturers. However, there was an increase in the number of manufacturers from 21 to 22 due to the separation of Daimler-Chrysler into: Chrysler Corporation and Daimler AG. This resulted in a 61 hour increase from the current OMB inventory of 1,260 burden hours a year
