    Title: Brake Hose Manufacturing Identification, Federal Motor 
Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) No. 106.
    OMB Control Number: 2127-0052.
    Type of Request: Request for public comment on a previously 
approved collection of information.
    Abstract: Each manufacturer of brake hoses is required to register 
their manufacturing identification marks with NHTSA, in accordance with 
requirements in FMVSS No. 106, Brake Hoses. Manufacturer markings are 
typically put on motor vehicle brake hoses so that the manufacturer can 
be identified if a safety problem occurs with brake hoses installed on 
vehicles. Brake hose manufacturers register approximately 20 new 
identification marks each year, by submitting a request letter sent via 
U.S. mail, facsimile, or e-mail.
    Affected Public: Business or other for-profit.
    Estimated Total Annual Burden: 30 hours and $3,000.

Comments Are Invited On

     Whether the proposed collection of information is 
necessary for the proper performance of the functions of the 
Department, including whether the information will have practical 
utility.
     Whether the Department's estimate for the burden of the 
proposed information collection is accurate.
     Ways to minimize the burden of the collection of 
information on respondents, including the use of automated collection 
techniques or other forms of information technology.
    A comment to OMB is most effective if OMB receives it within 30 
days of publication. The agency published a Federal Register notice 
informing the public of its intent to renew this information collection 
on February 14, 2007 (72 FR 7113). No comments were received in 
response to that notice.

    Issued on: May 29, 2007.

Associate Administrator for Rulemaking.
