49 CFR Part 575

[Docket No. NHTSA--03-15366]


Consumer Information Regulations; Uniform Tire Quality Grading 
Standards; Correction

AGENCY: National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, DOT.

ACTION: Correcting Amendment.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: On June 12, 2003, the National Highway Traffic Safety 
Administration published a correction to the treadwear testing 
procedures of the Uniform Tire Quality Grading Standards (UTQGS) (68 FR 
35184). The section heading for Sec.  575.104 contains a typographical 
error.
    This document corrects the typographical error in the Sec.  575.104 
section heading.

DATES: Effective on July 22, 2003.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Mr. George Feygin, Office of Chief 
Counsel (Telephone: 202-366-2992) (Fax: 202-366-3820), 400 Seventh 
Street, SW., Washington, DC 20590.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On November 15, 1991, the National Highway 
Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) published a final rule amending 
the treadwear testing procedures of the Uniform Tire Quality Grading 
Standards (UTQGS) to permit the use of front-wheel drive passenger 
cars, as well as light trucks, and MPVs (56 FR 57988). Previously, 
UTQGS specified testing of tires using only rear-wheel drive passenger 
cars. The effective date of the amendment was December 16, 1991. 
However, this new language was later inadvertently deleted in an 
unrelated amendment. The document published on June 12, 2003 corrected 
NHTSA's inadvertent deletion of that regulatory language. However, the 
section heading for Sec.  575.104 contained a typographical error. This 
document corrects the Sec.  575.104 heading.
    In FR Doc. 03-14693 published on June 12, 2003 (68 FR 35184) make 
the following correction. On page 35185, in the first column, the 
section heading is corrected to read as follows:


Sec.  575.104  Uniform tire quality grading standards.

    Issued: July 16, 2003.
