Abstract: This request for emergency processing under the PRA is to add to the legal authority cited for the Vehicle Inventory and Use Survey (VIUS). Due to an oversight, the materials submitted to OMB for review in the original request for clearance of the VIUS did not include the complete legal authority for the mandatory collection of the VIUS. Currently our collection authority cites that Title 13, United States Code, Sections 131 and 182, authorizes the collection and Sections 224 and 225 make the collection mandatory. However, Sections 224 and 225 only apply to respondents who are part of a company, business, or organization. Section 221 also needs to be cited to require mandatory response for individual owners of personal vehicles who are included in the VIUS sample. Including the correct citation will allow us to make VIUS mandatory for individuals who own personal vehicles, as intended. We request approval of this emergency submission by April 18, 2022.

Emergency Justfication: Emergency processing is needed because the VIUS is already in the field and we need to implement this change ASAP in order to be able to collect the information on a mandatory basis from individual truck owners as intended.
