[Docket No. 97-067; Notice 1]
RIN 2127-AG98
List of Nonconforming Vehicles Decided to be Eligible for
Importation
AGENCY: National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), DOT.
ACTION: Final rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: This document revises the list of vehicles not originally
manufactured to conform to the Federal motor vehicle safety standards
that NHTSA has decided to be eligible for importation. This list is
contained in an appendix to the agency's regulations that prescribe
procedures for import eligibility decisions. The revised list includes
all vehicles that NHTSA has decided to be eligible for importation
since October 1, 1996. NHTSA is required by statute to publish this
list annually in the Federal Register.
DATES: The revised list of import eligible vehicles (Appendix A to Part
593) is effective on October 7, 1997.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: George Entwistle, Office of Vehicle
Safety Compliance, NHTSA (202-366-5306).
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under 49 U.S.C. 30141(a)(1)(A), a motor
vehicle that was not originally manufactured to conform to all
applicable Federal motor vehicle safety standards shall be refused
admission into the United States unless NHTSA has decided that the
motor vehicle is substantially similar to a motor vehicle
originally manufactured for importation into and sale in the United
States, certified under 49 U.S.C. 30115, and of the same model year
as the model of the motor vehicle to be compared, and is capable of
being readily altered to conform to all applicable Federal motor
vehicle safety standards. Where there is no substantially similar
U.S.-certified motor vehicle, 49 U.S.C. 30141(a)(1)(B) permits a
nonconforming motor vehicle to be admitted into the United States
if its safety features comply with, or are capable of being altered
to comply with, all applicable Federal motor vehicle safety
standards based on destructive test data or such other evidence as
the Secretary of Transportation decides to be adequate.
Under 49 U.S.C. 30141(a)(1), import eligibility decisions may be
made ``on the initiative of the Secretary of Transportation or on
petition of a manufacturer or importer registered under (49 U.S.C.
30141(c)).'' The Secretary's authority to make these decisions has been
delegated to the Administrator of NHTSA under 49 CFR 1.50(a). The
Administrator initially redelegated to the Associate Administrator for
Enforcement (now Safety Assurance) the authority to grant or deny
petitions for import eligibility decisions submitted by motor vehicle
manufacturers and registered importers, and subsequently transferred
this authority to the Director, Office of Vehicle Safety Compliance (49
CFR 501.8(l)). Thus far, a number of import eligibility decisions have
been made on the Administrator's own initiative, and the Associate
Administrator and Office Director have granted many petitions for such
decisions submitted by registered importers.
Under 49 U.S.C. 30141(b)(2), a list of all vehicles for which
import eligibility decisions have been made must be published annually
in the Federal Register. NHTSA previously published notices containing
this list on four occasions, at 57 FR 29553 (July 2, 1992), 59 FR 8671
(February 23, 1994), 60 FR 8268 (February 13, 1995), and 61 FR 8097
(March 1, 1996). On October 1, 1996, NHTSA published a final rule at 61
FR 51242 that added the list as an appendix to the agency's regulations
at 49 CFR part 593 that establish procedures for import eligibility
decisions. As described in the final rule, NHTSA took that action to
ensure that the list is more widely disseminated to government
personnel who oversee vehicle imports and to interested members of the
public. See 61 FR 51242-43. In that document, NHTSA expressed its
intention to annually revise the list as published in the appendix to
include any additional vehicles decided by the agency to be eligible
for importation since the list was last published. See 61 FR 51243. The
agency stated that issuance of the document announcing these revisions
will fulfill the annual publication requirements of 49 U.S.C.
30141(b)(2). Ibid.
Rulemaking Analyses and Notices
1. Executive Order 12866 (Federal Regulatory Planning and Review) and
DOT Regulatory Policies and Procedures
This rulemaking action was not reviewed under E.O. 12866. NHTSA has
analyzed this rulemaking action and determined that it is not
``significant'' within the meaning of the Department of
Transportation's regulatory policies and procedures.
2. Regulatory Flexibility Act
In accordance with the Regulatory Flexibility Act, NHTSA has
evaluated the effects of this action on small entities. Based upon this
evaluation, I certify that the revisions resulting from this rulemaking
will not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of
small entities. Accordingly, the agency has not prepared a regulatory
flexibility analysis.
Because this rulemaking does not impose any regulatory
requirements, but merely furnishes information by revising the list in
the Code of Federal Regulations of vehicles for which import
eligibility decisions have been made, it has no economic impact.
[[Page 52267]]
3. Executive Order 12612 (Federalism)
This action has been analyzed in accordance with the principles and
criteria contained in Executive Order 12612, and it has been determined
that this rule does not have sufficient Federalism implications to
warrant preparation of a Federalism Assessment. No State laws will be
affected.
4. National Environmental Policy Act
The agency has considered the environmental implications of this
rule in accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969
and determined that it will not significantly affect the human
environment.
5. Paperwork Reduction Act
In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1980, P.L. 96-
511, the agency notes that there are no information collection
requirements associated with this rulemaking action.
6. Civil Justice Reform
This rule does not have any retroactive effect. It does not repeal
or modify any existing Federal regulations. A petition for
reconsideration or other administrative proceeding will not be a
prerequisite to an action seeking judicial review of this rule. This
rule does not preempt the states from adopting laws or regulations on
the same subject, except that it will preempt a state regulation that
is in actual conflict with the Federal regulation or makes compliance
with the Federal regulation impossible or interferes with the
implementation of the Federal statute.
7. Notice and Comment
NHTSA finds that prior notice and opportunity for comment are
unnecessary under 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(3)(B) because this action does not
impose any regulatory requirements, but merely revises the list of
vehicles not originally manufactured to conform to the Federal motor
vehicle safety standards that NHTSA has decided to be eligible for
importation into the United States to include all vehicles for which
such decisions have been made since October 1, 1996.
In addition, so that the list of vehicles for which import
eligibility decisions have been made may be included in the next
edition of 49 CFR parts 400 to 999, which is due for revision on
October 1, 1997, good cause exists to dispense with the requirement in
5 U.S.C. 553(d) for the effective date of the rule to be delayed for at
least 30 days following its publication.
List of Subjects in 49 CFR Part 593
Imports, Motor vehicle safety, Motor vehicles.
In consideration of the foregoing, part 593 of Title 49 of the Code
of Federal Regulations, Determinations that a vehicle not originally
manufactured to conform to the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards
is eligible for importation, is amended as follows:
PART 593--[AMENDED]
1. The authority citation for Part 593 continues to read as
follows:
Authority: 49 U.S.C. 322 and 30141(b); delegation of authority
at 49 CFR 1.50.
2. Appendix A to part 593 is revised to read as follows:
Appendix A to part 593--List of Vehicles Determined to be Eligible for
Importation
Each vehicle on the following list is preceded by a vehicle
eligibility number. The importer of a vehicle admissible under any
eligibility decision must enter that number on the HS-7 Declaration
Form accompanying entry to indicate that the vehicle is eligible for
importation.
``VSA'' eligibility numbers are assigned to all vehicles that are
decided to be eligible for importation on the initiative of the
Administrator under Sec. 593.8.
``VSP'' eligibility numbers are assigned to vehicles that are
decided to be eligible under Sec. 593.7(f), based on a petition from a
manufacturer or registered importer submitted under Sec. 593.5(a)(1),
which establishes that a substantially similar U.S.-certified vehicle
exists.
``VCP'' eligibility numbers are assigned to vehicles that are
decided to be eligible under Sec. 593.7(f), based on a petition from a
manufacturer or registered importer submitted under Sec. 593.5(a)(2),
which establishes that the vehicle has safety features that comply
with, or are capable of being altered to comply with, all applicable
Federal motor vehicle safety standards.
Vehicles for which eligibility decisions have been made are listed
alphabetically by make, with the exception of Mercedes-Benz vehicles,
which appear at the end of the list. Eligible models within each make
are listed numerically by ``VSA,'' ``VSP,'' or ``VCP'' number.
All hyphens used in the Model Year column mean ``through'' (for
example, ``1973-1989'' means ``1973 through 1989'').
The initials ``MC'' used in the Manufacturer column mean
``motorcycle.''
The initials ``SWB'' used in the Model Type column mean ``Short
Wheel Base.''
The initials ``LWB'' used in the Model Type column mean ``Long
Wheel Base.''
