Draft Guidance for the Evaluation of Products for Claims Against
Viruses; Notice of Availability and Request for Comments

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Notice.

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

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is announcing the
availability of and soliciting comment on draft guidance to expand the
availability of virucidal claims for antimicrobial pesticides and
provide framework for registrants who seek to make such claims.
    This draft guidance reiterates recommended test methods and
guidance for the addition of virucidal claims to products that meet the
criteria for hard surface disinfections claims and the addition of
virucidal claims to products that meet the criteria for food/non-food
contact sanitizer claims consistent with current test guidelines. This
draft guidance specifically covers the addition of a virucidal claims
to a product that has met the criteria for a bactericidal disinfectant
and/or sanitizer. The methods and performance standards applicable to
this expanded availability of virucidal claims are the same test
methods and performance standards that are currently used to support
existing virucidal claims and thus there are no expectations on
reduction of product performance against viruses.

DATES: Submit your comments on or before September 15, 2023.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. General Information

A. Does this action apply to me?

    This notice is directed to the general public and may be of
specific interest to persons or entities that register antimicrobial
pesticides. Because other entities may also be interested in this
notice, the agency has not attempted to describe all the specific
entities that may be interested in this subject. If you have any
questions regarding the applicability of this action to a particular
entity, contact the person listed under FOR FURTHER INFORMATION
CONTACT.

B. What should I consider as I prepare my comments for EPA?

    1. Submitting CBI. Do not submit CBI information to EPA through
regulations.gov or email. Clearly mark the part or all of the
information that you claim to be CBI. In addition to one complete
version of the comment that includes information claimed as CBI, a copy
of the comment that does not contain the information claimed as CBI
must be submitted for inclusion in the public docket. Information so
marked will not be disclosed except in accordance with procedures set
forth in 40 CFR part 2.
    2. Tips for preparing your comments. When preparing and submitting
your comments, see Tips for Effective Comments at https://www.epa.gov/dockets. Please note that once submitted, comments cannot be edited or
removed from the docket. The EPA may publish any comment received to
its public docket.

II. Background

    Historically, EPA has approved claims for efficacy against viruses
only as additional claims on certain antimicrobial products, such as
those with sterilant and disinfectant claims, but not those that bear
only sanitizer claims.
    EPA received requests for guidance to add virucidal claims to
products with sanitizing claims on hard surfaces. There is a
significant interest from stakeholders and the public to add these
virucidal claims to products with sanitizer label claims.
    This draft guidance is intended to allow registrants to provide
consumers with additional products that are effective against viruses
including SARS-CoV-2. This draft guidance reiterates recommended test
methods and guidance for the addition of virucidal claims to products
that meet the criteria for hard surface disinfections claims in OCSPP
810.2200, Disinfectants for Use on Environmental Surfaces, Guidance for
Efficacy Testing (EPA publication No. 712-C-17-004 (2018)).
    Products should meet the test guidance requirements as described in
OCSPP 810.2300 Sanitizers for Use on Hard Surfaces--Efficacy Data
Recommendations (EPA publication No. 712-C-07-091 (2012)), (food or
non-food contact sanitization) to treat hard, non-porous surfaces
before a virucidal claim is added.
    OCSPP test guidelines can be accessed online through https://www.epa.gov/test-guidelines-pesticides-and-toxic-substances.
    Since there will be no changes to the test methods or performance
standards recommended for virus claims, there is no concern about a
reduced level of efficacy against viruses. Products that meet the basic
criteria to allow for sanitizer claims and have data to support the
addition of virucidal label claims, may be used only in non-healthcare
use-sites in residential, commercial and institutional settings (e.g.,
cafeterias, waiting rooms) specifically on hard non-porous surfaces.
    Additional anticipated benefits include the availability of more
products with reduced contact times (time the surface must remain wet)
and/or more products on EPA's Design for the Environment list that are
also effective against viruses. The expansion of the availability of
virucidal claims under this draft guidance will facilitate the addition
of virus claims to products bearing only sanitizer claims.

III. Do guidance documents contain binding requirements?

    As guidance, these documents are not binding on the Agency or any
outside parties, and the Agency may depart from it where circumstances
warrant and without prior notice. While EPA has made every effort to
ensure the accuracy of the discussion in the guidance, the obligations
of EPA and the regulated community are determined by statutes,
regulations, or other legally binding documents. In the event of a
conflict between the discussion in the guidance documents and any
statute, regulation, or other legally binding document, the guidance
documents will not be controlling.
    Authority: 7 U.S.C. 136 et seq.

DRAFT Supporting Statement for Information Collection Request Nonconformance Penalties for Heavy Duty Engines and Heavy Duty Vehicles, Including Light Duty Trucks; Reporting and Recordkeeping Requirements EPA Number 1285.06 OMB No. 2060 0132 42 USC 7525G, 7601 and CAA 206( g), 208,301 July 2005 Certification & Compliance Division Office of Transportation and Air Quality Office of Air and Radiation U. S. Environmental Protection Agency 1In recent years, participation in the NCP program has included only one manufacturer and only one family each year. The projection of six participating engine families each year is a result of the more stringent emission standards that are being implemented in upcoming model years and the expected increased use of NCPs by manufacturers.

 1 Part A SUBMISSION 1. Identification of the Information Collection 1( a) Title and Number of the Information Collection Nonconformance Penalties for Heavy Duty Engines and Heavy Duty Vehicles, Including Light Duty Trucks, Reporting and Recordkeeping Requirements; EPA ICR Number 1285.06, OMB Control Number 2060 0132.

1( b) Short Characterization Nonconformance penalties ( NCP) provisions allow a manufacturer to introduce into commerce heavy duty engines( HDEs) or heavy duty vehicles ( HDVs), including light duty trucks( LDTs), which fail to conform with certain emission standards, upon payment of a monetary penalty.

The information collection activities for the NCP program include the collection of periodic reports and other information which the manufacturer creates and submits to the Certification and Compliance Division ( CCD), Office of Transportation and Air Quality ( OTAQ), Office of Air and Radiation ( OAR), of the U. S. Environmental Protection Agency ( EPA). CCD uses this information to ensure that manufacturers are in compliance with the regulations of the Clean Air Act ( Act) and paying the appropriate penalties. The information submitted in the manufacturers' NCP reports is stored in CCD's computer tracking system to ensure accurate accounting of NCP payments.

Since nonconformance penalties and associated PCAs are an option elected by manufacturers, EPA cannot be certain how many engine families manufacturers will request to be included in the NCP program each year. Likewise, we cannot be certain of the number of PCAs that will be conducted each model year. However, EPA estimates for ICR purposes, that six engine families will be included in the NCP program each model year. 1 This information is collected by the Engine Programs Group ( EPG) in CCD. Besides CCD, this information could be used by the Office of Enforcement and Compliance Assurance ( OECA) and the Department of  2 Justice for enforcement purposes. Non Confidential Business Information( CBI) information is also disclosed in a public database and over the Internet. It is used by trade associations, environmental groups, and the public. The information is usually submitted in an electronic format, and it is stored in EPG's certification database.

2. Need for and Use of the Collection 2( a) Need/ Authority for the collection Under Title II of the Clean Air Act, ( 42 USC 7521 et seq.), EPA is charged with issuing certificates of conformity for those vehicles and engines that comply with applicable emission standards. Such certificates must be issued before vehicles or engines are legally introduced into commerce. To ensure compliance with these statutes, EPA reviews product information and manufacturers' test results; EPA also tests some vehicles and engines to confirm manufacturers' results.

EPA's emission certification programs are statutorily mandated; the agency does not have discretion to cease these functions. Under Section 206( g)( 1) of the Act as amended ( 42 USC 7525):

In the case of any class or category of heavy duty vehicles or engines to which a standard promulgated under section 202( a) of this Act applies, except as provided in paragraph ( 2), a certificate of conformity shall be issued under subsection ( a) and shall not be suspended or revoked under subsection ( b) for such vehicle or engines manufactured by a manufacturer notwithstanding the failure of such vehicles or engines to meet such standard if such manufacturer pays a nonconformance penalty as provided under regulations promulgated by the Administrator after notice and opportunity for public hearing.

2( b) Practical Utility/ Users of the Data EPA uses the data to ensure manufacturers are complying with the regulations and that appropriate nonconformance penalties are being paid by the participants.

The information will be received and used by EPG, CCD, OTAQ, OAR. Non confidential portions of the information submitted to EPG are available to and used by manufacturers, engine users, environmental groups, members of the public and state and local government organizations.

3. Nonduplication, Consultations and Other Collection Criteria 3( a) Nonduplication The information requested under this ICR is required by statute. Because of its specialized ( and sometimes confidential) nature, and the fact that it must be submitted to EPA prior to the start of  3 production, the information collected is not available from any other source.

3( b) Public Notice Required Prior to ICR Submission to OMB An announcement of the public comment period for this ICR renewal was published in the Federal Register on May 31, 2005 ( 70 FR 30943). No comments were received. A copy of the FR notice can be found in Appendix A.

3( c) Consultations Under the existing ICR, only one manufacturer has elected to participate in the NCP program. Given this low level of activity, EPA did not attempt to contact potential respondents, and chose instead to use the burden estimates provided by the respondents under the existing ICR.

3( d) Effects of Less Frequent Collection The CAA states that emission certification must be done on a yearly basis ( CAA 206( a)( 1)), coinciding with the industry's " model year." Major product changes typically occur at the start of a model year. For these reasons, a collection frequency of less than a model year is not possible. However, EPA only requires the collection of PCA information when a manufacturer elects to pay a nonconformance penalty and conduct a PCA. EPA requires that the NCP payment and associated report be submitted quarterly to EPA. If the payment and accompanying report were submitted less frequently, a nonconforming manufacturer could gain a competitive advantage over a conforming manufacturer by having the use of the penalty funds. The Act requires EPA to remove such an advantage.

3( e) General Guidelines EPA requires a manufacturer that elects to pay an NCP to conduct a Production Compliance Audit ( PCA) on those engines or vehicles. Selection of engines or vehicles for PCA testing must be initiated no later than 5 days after the start of assembly line production of the specified engine family. The manufacturer must agree to pay the NCP calculated as a result of PCA testing. The manufacturer must agree to recall any engines or vehicles introduced into commerce if the compliance level of the engine or vehicle exceeds the upper limit as determined by the PCA.

Manufacturers are required to establish, maintain and retain specific records under the regulation pertaining to all equipment used to test engines or vehicles, individual test results, information and test data, and a complete record of all emission tests performed. Required records shall be maintained by the manufacturer for a period of six years. The six year recordkeeping requirement stems from the CAA mandate that manufacturers recall engines failing to meet emission standards throughout their useful lives. Records may be retained as hard copy or reduced to microfilm, ADP film, etc., depending on the manufacturer's record retention  4 procedure, provided that in every case all the information contained in the hard copy is retained.

Manufacturers are required to submit confidential business information such as sales data and certain sensitive technical descriptions ( Please see section 4( b)( i) for reference). This information is kept confidential in accordance with the Freedom of Information Act, EPA regulations at 40 CFR Part 2, and class determinations issued by EPA's Office of General Counsel. Also, nonproprietary information submitted by manufacturers is held as confidential until the specific vehicle or engine to which it pertains is available for purchase.

No other general guideline is exceeded by this information collection.

3( f) Confidentiality Manufacturers are allowed to assert a claim of confidentiality over information provided to EPA. Confidentiality is provided in accordance with the Freedom of Information Act and EPA regulations at 40 CFR Part 2. For further detail, refer to section 3( e).

3( g) Sensitive Questions No sensitive questions are asked in this information collection.

4. Respondents and Information Requested 4( a) Respondents/ NAICS Codes The respondents are manufacturers or importers of large onhighway heavy duty engines. The following North American Industry Classification System ( NAICS) codes are associated with this information collection:

333618 Other Engine Equipment Manufacturing 333120 Construction Machinery Manufacturing 333924 Industrial Truck, Tractor, Trailer, and Stacker Machinery Manufacturing 336111 Automobile Manufacturing 336112 Light Truck and Utility Vehicle Manufacturing 336120 Heavy Duty Truck Manufacturing 336211 Motor Vehicle Body Manufacturing 336992 Military Armored Vehicle, Tank, and Tank Component Manufacturing 336312 Gasoline Engine and Engine Parts Manufacturing 336322 Other Motor Vehicle Electrical and Electronic Equipment Manufacturing 4( b) Information Requested All manufacturers electing to pay an NCP must describe their product( s) and supply test data to verify compliance. This  5 information is organized by " engine family" groups expected to have similar emission characteristics. Manufacturers must also retain needed records.

The burden for a given engine family is reduced after the model's first production year, because data and information from previous years can be " carried over" when no significant changes have occurred. For instance, an engine family certified in model year 2005 can be certified in the 2006 model year by " carry over" of data and paperwork from the 2005 model year if no significant changes have occurred to the engine family between model years. Allowing manufacturers to carry over data and paperwork saves manufacturers the burden of duplication of data and paperwork which would occur in the absence of such provisions. Carry over reduces the need to conduct a PCA for each engine family on an annual basis as PCA data may be carried over to subsequent model years when appropriate.

( i) Data Items The data items in the Tables A to C are required under this information collection.

Quarterly Penalty Payment 86.1113 87( g)( 1)

Quarterly Information Reporting 86.1113 87( g)( 1)

( ii) Respondent Activities The type of activities a manufacturer would conduct to participate in the nonconformance penalty program for a specified engine family are as follows:

° review the regulations ° test engines for production compliance audit ° gather emission data ° Conduct Performance Compliance Audit ( PCA) ° submit the PCA data/ report ° retain and maintain records ° submit quarterly production reports and NCP payments 5. The Information Collected Agency Activities, Collection Methodology, and Information Management 5( a) Agency Activities A significant portion of EPA's NCP activity is spent reviewing the application, verifying that the correct engines have been selected and appropriately tested, determining the applicable compliance level and corresponding nonconformance penalty, ensuring applicable fees are paid, storing the data and answering manufacturers' questions. A part of the NCP process involves determining if " carry over" of data from a previous model year is appropriate or if new testing will be required. The agency also analyzes requests for confidentiality and provides appropriate protection.

5( b) Collection Methodology and Management EPA currently makes extensive use of computers in evaluating information from vehicle and engine manufacturers. Most manufacturers use the electronic format provided by EPA to submit their NCP applications and PCA data. Once the diskette containing the  7 application is received, the application is entered into the Database and reviewed for completeness. If the manufacturer chooses to submit the application and/ or PCA data in hard copy, EPA enters the information in our database. The certification reviewer analyses the application to ensure compliance with the CAA and applicable regulations. Non confidential parts of the application can be accessed by the public by contacting the EPG or through the " Engine Certification Information Center" at http:// www. epa. gov/ otaq/ certdata. htm.

The quarterly report can be submitted in hard copy form or electronically via computer disk or email.

5( c) Small Entity Flexibility There is no small entity flexibility specific to the NCP requirements. However, small on highway engine manufacturers may use optional procedures outlined in 86.098 14 to demonstrate compliance with the general standards and specific emission requirements.

The information being requested is considered to be the minimum needed to effectively conduct and maintain integrity of the NCP program.

5( d) Collection Schedule Required data must be submitted for each engine family on a yearly basis for each " model year" that a manufacturer intends to build ( or import) an engine model. Taking these considerations into account, manufacturers normally submit information on an annual basis and submit their applications at their earliest convenience.

Nonconformance penalties must be paid by specified quarterly due dates or according to such schedule as the Administrator may approve based on a manufacturer request. The manufacturer must submit corporate identification, identification and quantity of engines or vehicles subject to the NCP, certificate identification number and date, NCP payment calculations, and a statement of compliance with requirements and endorsement.

6. Estimating the Burden and Cost of the Collection Refer to Tables D and E for details.

6( a) Estimating Respondent Burden Under the existing ICR, only one manufacturer has elected to participate in the NCP program. Given this low level of activity, EPA did not attempt to contact potential respondents, and chose instead to use the burden estimates provided by the respondents under the existing ICR.

6( b) Estimating Respondent Costs  8 ( i) Estimating Labor Costs To estimate labor costs, EPA used the mean hourly wage estimates developed by the Bureau of Labor Statistics ( BLS) for Transportation Equipment Manufacturing ( NAICS Subsector 336) and adjusted the rates to account for overhead. The mean hourly rate estimated by BLS for management occupations ( SOC 11 0000) is $ 45.24, resulting in a rate of $ 95.00 after adding overhead/ benefits at 110%. The mean hourly rate for Secretaries, Except Legal, Medical, and Executive ( SOC 43 6014) is $ 13.83, resulting in a rate of $ 29.04 after adding overhead/ benefits at 110%. These estimates are taken from the " May 2004 National Industry Specific Occupational Employment and Wage Estimates, NAICS 336300  Motor Vehicle Parts Manufacturing" table ( http:// www. bls. gov/ oes/ current/ naics4_ 336300. htm).

Using these standard BLS labor rates rather than the rates developed in the existing ICR in consultation with the affected industry results in a substantial reduction in overall labor costs. The estimate of burden hours, however, remains the same.

In estimating respondent burden for the NCP program, time was allocated for regulation review, training, records maintenance, quarterly reporting and production compliance auditing. Performing the PCA includes hours for engine selection, engine service accumulation to stabilize new engine performance, engine testing, engine reallocation within the manufacturer's distribution system, preparation of the PCA report and maintenance of PCA testing records.

( ii) Estimating Capital and Operations and Maintenance Costs Operation and Maintenance costs associated with all programs covered by this information collection include diskettes, photocopying, postage expenses and fuel costs related to PCA mileage accumulation and testing for selected test engines.

There are no capital costs associated with this collection. Related capital costs for engine manufacturers for test equipment, computers and facilities are covered under the certification program which already exists. EPA does not expect any additional capital costs related to this NCP collection.

( iii) Capital/ Start There are no capital or start up costs associated with the renewal of this ICR. ( See 6( b)( iii) for details.)

( iv) Annualizing Capital Costs There are no capital costs associated with the renewal of this ICR. ( See 6( b)( iii) for details.)

6( c) Estimating Agency Burden Government cost is based on GS 13 salary for professional engineers ($ 35.83/ hr) and on GS 7 salary for clerical support ($ 16.99/ hr). The hourly rates were obtained from the Office of Personal Management. Agency time is allocated for review of the NCP application, review of the PCA data, determination of the emission 1Two highway heavy duty diesel highway engine manufacturers submit approximately six engine NCP family/ applications per year.

2Three PCAs are conducted on an annual basis. Arrangements include engine identification, selection, and shipment to test facility.

 9 compliance level and review of the quarterly reports and NCP fee calculation.

6( d) Estimating the Respondent Universe and Total Burden and Costs EPA anticipates receiving 6 requests for separate engine families to participate in the NCP program annually. Two manufacturers are expected to participate annually. Currently, only one manufacturer participates with a single engine family annually. On an annual basis it is expected that three of the engine families will be new families that require a PCA. Three of the families will be carryover families that can utilize the results of the PCA performed previously.

There is a very slight increase in labor costs, due to the use of current wage rates for this ICR.

6( g) Burden Statement For the two participating highway engine manufacturers, the burden associated with requesting NCP certificates of conformity for their annual production is estimated to average 1,178 hours total. This equals 589 hours per respondent for three engine families each. The associated burden on a per engine family basis is 196 hours.

These estimates include time to review applicable regulations and guidance documents, train personnel, generate and gather the necessary PCA information, submit applications and reports, and maintain records.

Burden means the total time, effort, or financial resources expended by persons to generate, maintain, retain, or disclose or provide information to or for a Federal agency. This includes the time needed to review instructions; develop, acquire, install, and utilize technology and systems for the purposes of collecting, validating, and verifying information, processing and maintaining information, and disclosing and providing information; adjust the existing ways to comply with any previously applicable instructions and requirements; train personnel to be able to respond to a collection of information; search data sources; complete and review  11 the collection of information; and transmit or otherwise disclose the information. An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to, a collection of information unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number. The OMB control numbers for EPA's regulations are listed in 40 CFR Part 9 and 48 CFR Chapter 15.

To comment on the Agency's need for this information, the accuracy of the provided burden estimates, and any suggested methods for minimizing respondent burden, including the use of automated collection techniques, EPA has established a public docket for this ICR under Docket ID No. OAR 2005 0120, which is available for public viewing at the Air and Radiation Docket and Information Center in the EPA Docket Center ( EPA/ DC), EPA West, Room B102, 1301 Constitution Ave., NW, Washington, DC.

[Docket No. FDA-2010-N-0108]

Training Program for Regulatory Project Managers; Information
Available to Industry

AGENCY:  Food and Drug Administration, HHS.

ACTION:  Notice.

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

SUMMARY:  The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Center for Drug
Evaluation and Research (CDER) is announcing the continuation of the
Regulatory Project Management Site Tours and Regulatory Interaction
Program (the Site Tours Program). The purpose of this document is to
invite pharmaceutical companies interested in participating in this
program to contact CDER.

DATES:  Pharmaceutical companies may submit proposed agendas to the
agency by May 10, 2010 Federal Register].

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:  Beth Duvall-Miller, Center for Drug
Evaluation and Research, Food and Drug Administration, 10903 New
Hampshire Ave., Bldg. 22, rm. 6466, Silver Spring, MD 20993-0002, 301-
796-0700, e-mail<EMAIL_ADDRESS>
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Background

    An important part of CDER's commitment to make safe and effective
drugs available to all Americans is optimizing the efficiency and
quality of the drug review process. To support this primary goal, CDER
has initiated various training and development programs to promote high
performance in its regulatory project management staff. CDER seeks to
significantly enhance review efficiency and review quality by providing
the staff with a better understanding of the pharmaceutical industry
and its operations. To this end, CDER is continuing its training
program to give regulatory project managers the opportunity to tour
pharmaceutical facilities. The goals are to provide the following: (1)
First hand exposure to industry's drug development processes and (2) a
venue for sharing information about project management procedures (but
not drug-specific information) with industry representatives.

II. The Site Tours Program

    In this program, over a 2- to 3-day period, small groups (five or
less) of regulatory project managers, including a senior level
regulatory project manager, can observe operations of pharmaceutical
manufacturing and/or packaging facilities, pathology/toxicology
laboratories, and regulatory affairs operations. Neither this tour nor
any part of the program is intended as a mechanism to inspect, assess,
judge, or perform a regulatory function, but is meant rather to improve
mutual understanding and to provide an avenue for open dialogue. During
the Site Tours Program, regulatory project managers

will also participate in daily workshops with their industry
counterparts, focusing on selective regulatory issues important to both
CDER staff and industry. The primary objective of the daily workshops
is to learn about the team approach to drug development, including drug
discovery, preclinical evaluation, tracking mechanisms, and regulatory
submission operations. The overall benefit to regulatory project
managers will be exposure to project management, team techniques, and
processes employed by the pharmaceutical industry. By participating in
this program, the regulatory project manager will grow professionally
by gaining a better understanding of industry processes and procedures

III. Site Selection

    All travel expenses associated with the site tours will be the
responsibility of CDER; therefore, selection will be based on the
availability of funds and resources for each fiscal year. Selection
will also be based on firms having a favorable facility status as
determined by FDA's Office of Regulatory Affairs District Offices in
the firms' respective regions. Firms interested in offering a site tour
or learning more about this training opportunity should respond by (see
DATES) by submitting a proposed agenda to Beth Duvall-Miller (see FOR
FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    Under 49 U.S.C. 30141(a)(1)(A), a motor vehicle that was not
originally manufactured to conform to all applicable FMVSS 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 FMVSS.
    Petitions for eligibility decisions may be submitted by either
manufacturers or importers who have registered with NHTSA pursuant to
49 CFR part 592. As specified in 49 CFR 593.7, NHTSA publishes notice
in the Federal Register of each petition that it receives, and affords
interested persons an opportunity to comment on the petition. At the
close of the comment period, NHTSA decides, on the basis of the
petition and any comments that it has received, whether the vehicle is
eligible for importation. The agency then publishes this decision in
the Federal Register.
    Wallace Environmental Testing Laboratories (WETL), of Houston,
Texas (Registered Importer R-90-005) has petitioned NHTSA to decide
whether nonconforming MY 2013 BMW R1200GS Adventure MCs are eligible
for importation into the United States. The vehicles which WETL
believes are substantially similar are MY 2013 BMW R1200GS Adventure
MCs sold in the United States and certified by their manufacturer as
conforming to all applicable FMVSS.
    The petitioner claims that it compared non-U.S. certified MY 2013
BMW R1200GS Adventure MCs to their U.S.-certified counterparts, and
found the vehicles to be substantially similar with respect to
compliance with most FMVSS.
    WETL submitted information with its petition intended to
demonstrate that non-U.S. certified MY 2013 BMW R1200GS Adventure MCs,
as originally manufactured, conform to many applicable FMVSS in the
same manner as their U.S.-certified counterparts, or are capable of
being readily altered to conform to those standards.
    Specifically, the petitioner claims that the non U.S.-certified MY
2013 BMW R1200GS Adventure MCs, as originally manufactured, conform to:
    Standard Nos. 106 Brake Hoses, 111 Rear Visibility, 116 Motor
Vehicle Brake Fluids, 119 New Pneumatic Tires for Motor Vehicles With a
GVWR of More than 4,536 Kilograms (10,000 pounds) and Motorcycles, and
122 Motorcycle Brake Systems.
    The petitioner also contends that the subject non-U.S. certified
motorcycles are capable of being readily altered to meet the following
standards, in the manner indicated:
    Standard No. 108 Lamps, Reflective Devices and Associated
Equipment: installation of the following U.S.-model components:
headlamp, tail lamp, stop lamp, rear side mounted reflex reflectors,
and rear center mounted reflex reflector.
    Standard No. 120 Tire Selection and Rims and Motor Home/Recreation
Vehicle Trailer Load Carrying Capacity Information for Motor Vehicles
With a GVWR of More than 4,536 Kilograms (10,000 pounds): installation
of the required tire information placard.
    Standard No. 123 Motorcycle Controls and Displays: replacement of
non-conforming speedometers with U.S.-model components.
    Standard No. 205 Glazing Materials: inspection of each vehicle and
removal of noncompliant glazing or replacement with U.S. certified
glazing.
    Wallace further states that labels will be affixed to conform to
requirements of 49 CFR part 567 Certification.
    This notice of receipt of WETL's petition does not represent any
agency decision or other exercise of judgment concerning the merits of
the petition. Notice of final action on the petition will be published
in the Federal Register pursuant to the authority indicated below.

    Authority:  49 U.S.C. 30141(a)(1)(A), (a)(1)(B), and (b)(1); 49
CFR 593.7; delegation of authority at 49 CFR 1.95 and 501.8.
