Abstract: Importers of light-duty vehicles, light-duty trucks, and some on-road motorcycles are required to report and keep records regarding the imports. The collection of this information is mandated to insure compliance with U.S vehicle and engine emission requirements under the Clean Air Act. The information collection instruments are EPA Forms 3520-1 for initial entry and 3520-8 for final entry of the more limited class of vehicles imported by Independent Commercial Importers. The reporting and recordkeeping burden covered by this ICR and the ICR for Importation of Nonroad Engines and Recreational Vehicles (OMB Control Number 2060-0320, EPA ICR Number 1723.09) is being consolidated into a new ICR, Importation of On-highway Vehicles and Nonroad Engines, Vehicles, and Equipment (OMB Control Number 2060-NEW, EPA ICR Number 2583.01). Once that overarching consolidation ICR is approved by OMB, this ICR will be discontinued.
