This ICR covers five aspects of EPA's certification program for passenger cars, light-duty trucks, and highway motorcycles: 1) car and light truck fuel economy, 2) motorcycle certification, 3) the manufacturers' in-use testing program for cars and light trucks, 4) car and light truck emissions certification, and 5) defect and voluntary emission recall reports for cars, light trucks, and motorcycles. This renewal ICR reflects several changes approved in subsequent ICRs as well as other current testing burden data and adjustments.
This change worksheet is being submitted to transfer burden from 2060-0644, Certification and In-Use Testing of Motor Vehicles: Revisions to Reduce Emissions of Greenhouse Gases (Final Rule) (EPA ICR Number ICR No. 2387.01). The ICR for the proposed rule was approved under this series (2060-0104); however, when the ICR for the final rule was being submitted there was another package pending, which prevented us from submitting the ICR for the final rule. The ICR for the final rule was instead submitted to OMB under 2060-0644. Once this change worksheet is approved, 2060-0644 will be discontinued.
On behalf of this Federal agency, I certify that the collection of information encompassed by this request complies with 5 CFR 1320.9 and the related provisions of 5 CFR 1320.8(b)(3).
The following is a summary of the topics, regarding the proposed collection of information, that the certification covers:
(i) Why the information is being collected;
(ii) Use of information;
