[Docket No. NHTSA-2016-0071; Notice 1]

Cooper Tire & Rubber Company, Receipt of Petition for Decision of
Inconsequential Noncompliance

AGENCY: National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA),
Department of Transportation (DOT).

ACTION: Receipt of petition.

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

SUMMARY: Cooper Tire & Rubber Company (Cooper), has determined that

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: I. Overview: Pursuant to 49 U.S.C. 30118(d)
and 30120(h) and their implementing regulations at 49 CFR part 556,
Cooper submitted a petition for an exemption from the notification and
remedy requirements of 49 U.S.C. Chapter 301 on the basis that this
noncompliance is inconsequential as it relates to motor vehicle safety.
    This notice of receipt of Cooper's petition is published under 49
U.S.C. 30118 and 30120 and does not represent any agency decision or
other exercise of judgment concerning the merits of the petition.
    II. Tires Involved: Affected are approximately 37 Cooper Tire
MULTI-MILE Grand Tour LS Size 205/70R15 Tubeless Radial Tires
manufactured between March 24, 2016 and March 29, 2016.
    III. Noncompliance: Cooper explains that the noncompliance is that
the outboard sidewalls of the subject tires are labeled with an
incorrect manufacturer's identification mark and therefore do not fully
meet all applicable requirements of paragraph S5.5.1(b) of FMVSS No.
139. Specifically, the tires are labeled with the manufacturer's
identification mark ``Y9,'' assigned to a manufacturing facility in
P.T. Gadjah Tunggual, Kabupaten Tangerang, Jawa Barat, Indonesia,
instead of ``U9,'' assigned to Cooper's manufacturing facility in
Tupelo, Mississippi, where the tires were actually produced.
    IV. Rule Text: Paragraph S5.5.1 of FMVSS No. 139 requires in
pertinent part:

S5.5.1 Tire Identification Number.
    . . .
    (b) Tires manufactured on or after September 1, 2009. Each tire
must be labeled with the tire identification number required by 49
CFR part 574 on the intended outboard sidewall of the tire. Except
for retreaded tires, either the tire identification number or a
partial tire identification number, containing all characters in the
tire identification number, except for the date code and, at the
discretion of the manufacturer, any optional code, must be labeled
on the other sidewall of the tire. Except for retreaded tires, if a
tire does not have an intended outboard sidewall, the tire must be
labeled with the tire identification number required by 49 CFR part
574 on one sidewall and with either the tire identification number
or a partial tire identification number, containing all characters
in the tire identification number except for the date code and, at
the discretion of the manufacturer, any optional code, on the other
side wall.
    V. Summary of Cooper's Petition: Cooper states its belief that the
subject noncompliance is inconsequential to motor vehicle safety on
account of the fact that while the subject tires contain an incorrect
manufacturer's identification mark on the outboard sidewall, the full
and correct tire code (including the correct manufacturer's
identification mark) is available on the intended inboard sidewall.
    Cooper also indicated that it has taken the following steps to
ensure proper registration of the subject tires:
    (a) Cooper has informed all internal personnel responsible for
manual processing of tire registration cards about the incorrect
manufacturer identification issue so that cards containing the ``Y9''
designation will be accepted and properly processed when all other
information accurately identifies the subject tires. Additionally,
consistent with its usual practices, whenever a tire registration card
is submitted with inaccurate or incomplete information, Cooper sends a
mailing to the consumer seeking additional information by providing a
prepaid response card.
    (b) Cooper has also modified its database to accept ``Y9'' when
other information (brand, serial weeks affected etc.) is accurate.

    (c) Cooper has contacted Computerized Information and Management
Services, Inc. (CIMS), a third-party vendor that collects and provides
tire registration cards to Cooper, so that tire registration cards will
not be rejected solely due to improper plant code information.
    Cooper also noted that while the subject tires are mislabeled on
the outboard side, they meet all other performance requirements of the
applicable standard. The company observed that plant code information
has no bearing on the performance or operation of a tire and does not
create a safety concern to either the operator of the vehicle on which
the tires are mounter of the safety of personnel in the tire repair,
retread and recycle industry. Cooper also stated that on April 22, 2016
the incorrect mold that caused the stamping error was removed from
production and replaced with a corrected plug, thereby eliminating the
problem in future production.
    Please refer to Cooper's petition for its complete reasoning and
any associated illustrations. The petition and all supporting documents
are available by logging onto the Federal Docket Management System
(FDMS) Web site at: http://www.regulations.gov/ and following the
online search instructions to locate the docket number listed in the
title of this notice.
    In summation, Cooper believes that the described noncompliance of
the subject tires is inconsequential as it relates to motor vehicle
safety, and that its petition, to exempt Cooper from providing
notification of the noncompliance, as required by 49 U.S.C. 30118, and
remedying the noncompliance, as required by 49 U.S.C. 30120, should be
granted.
    NHTSA notes that the statutory provisions (49 U.S.C. 30118(d) and
30120(h)) that permit manufacturers to file petitions for a
determination of inconsequentiality allow NHTSA to exempt manufacturers
only from the duties found in sections 30118 and 30120, respectively,
to notify owners, purchasers, and dealers of a defect or noncompliance
and to remedy the defect or noncompliance. Therefore, any decision on
this petition only applies to the subject tires that Cooper no longer
controlled at the time it determined that the noncompliance existed.
However, any decision on this petition does not relieve equipment
distributors and dealers of the prohibitions on the sale, offer for
sale, or introduction or delivery for introduction into interstate
commerce of the noncompliant tires under their control after Cooper
notified them that the subject noncompliance existed.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Morgan's Petition

    Pursuant to 49 U.S.C. 30118(d) and 30120(h) (see implementing rule
at 49 CFR part 556), Morgan submitted a petition for an exemption from
the notification and remedy requirements of 49 U.S.C. Chapter 301 on
the basis that this noncompliance is inconsequential to motor vehicle
safety.
    Notice of receipt of the August 15, 2013, petition was published,
with a 30-day public comment period, on January 14, 2014, in the
Federal Register (79 FR 2507). No comments were received. To view the
petition and all supporting documents log onto the Federal Docket
Management System (FDMS) Web site at: http://www.regulations.gov/. Then
follow the online search instructions to locate docket number ``NHTSA-
2013-0102.''

II. Vehicles Involved

    Affected are approximately 139 MY 2012 and 2013 Morgan model M3W
three-wheeled motorcycles manufactured during the period August 1, 2012
to August 14, 2013.

III. Noncompliance

    Morgan explains that the noncompliance is that the wind deflectors
on the vehicles do not have the markings required by FMVSS No. 205.

IV. Rule Text

    Paragraph S6 of FMVSS No. 205 requires in pertinent part:

    S6.1 A prime glazing material manufacturer must certify, in
accordance with 49 U.S.C. 30115, each piece of glazing material to
which this standard applies that is designed--
    (a) As a component of any specific motor vehicle or camper; or
    (b) To be cut into components for use in motor vehicles or items
of motor vehicle equipment.
    S6.2 A prime glazing manufacturer certifies its glazing by
adding to the marks required by section 7 of ANSI/SAE Z26.1-1996, in
letters and numerals of the same size, the symbol ``DOT'' and a
manufacturer's code mark that NHTSA assigns to the manufacturer.
NHTSA will assign a code mark to a manufacturer after the
manufacturer submits a written request to the Office of Vehicle
Safety Compliance, National Highway Traffic Safety Administration,
400 Seventh Street, SW., Washington, DC 20590. The request must
include the company name, address, and a statement from the
manufacturer certifying its status as a prime glazing manufacturer
as defined in S4.
    S6.3 A manufacturer or distributor who cuts a section of glazing
material to which this standard applies, for use in a motor vehicle
or camper, must--
    (a) Mark that material in accordance with section 7 of ANSI/SAE
Z26.1-1996; and
    (b) Certify that its product complies with this standard in
accordance with 49 U.S.C. 30115.

V. Summary of Morgan's Analyses

    Morgan stated its belief that the subject noncompliance is
inconsequential to motor vehicle safety for the following reasons:
    a. The wind deflector fitted in the M3W uses glazing that conforms
to item 6 ANSI 226.1-1996-windshields for motorcycles. It is so small
(its dimensions are 1O''x5'') that it is not requisite for driving
visibility.
    b. Morgan owners will go to Morgan dealers for replacement of the
wind deflector.
    c. The noncompliance is not likely to increase the safety risk to
individual occupants who experience the type of injurious event against
which the standard was designed to protect.
    d. There have been no reports of any safety issues. Both in the
U.S. and the rest of the world, Morgan knows of no injuries caused by
the noncompliance.
    e. The subject noncompliance here is inconsequential in view of the
nature of the vehicle in question because Morgan possesses attributes
enumerated in several previous NHTSA inconsequential noncompliance
determinations that it believes can be applied to a decision on its
petition. See Morgan's petition for a complete discussion of its
reasoning.
    Morgan additionally stated that it shall, as regards ongoing
production, mark the wind deflector to comply with the FMVSS No. 205
requirements.
    In summation, Morgan believes that the described noncompliance of
the subject vehicles is inconsequential to motor vehicle safety, and
that its petition, to exempt from providing recall notification of
noncompliance as required by 49 U.S.C. 30118 and remedying the recall
noncompliance as required by 49 U.S.C. 30120 should be granted.

VI. NHTSA Decision

    FMVSS No. 205 specifies labeling and performance requirements for
automotive glazing. Section S6 of FMVSS No. 205 requires glazing
material manufacturers to certify, in accordance with 49 U.S.C. 30115,
each piece of glazing material to which this standard applies. A prime
glazing material manufacturer certifies its glazing by adding the marks
required in Section 7 of ANSI Z26.1 (1996), the symbol ``DOT'' and a
manufacturer's code mark assigned by the NHTSA's Office of Vehicle
Safety Compliance.

Section 7 of ANSI Z26.1 (1996) requires manufacturers to mark
automotive glazing with the item of glazing number, e.g., ``AS-1''.
Section 7 of ANSI Z26.1 (1996) states that the item of glazing number
is to be placed in close proximity to other required markings.
    According to the petition, the nature of the noncompliance is the
lack of markings as required in FMVSS No. 205 and ANSI Z26.1 (1996).
    NHTSA has reviewed Morgan's petition and for the reasons listed
below, believes that in this case the noncompliance is inconsequential
to vehicle safety.
    There are two issues that are being addressed by the labeling and
marking requirements of FMVSS No. 205. One is certification and the
other is information on the glazing manufacturer and item of glazing.
    Morgan stated that the wind deflector meets the requirements of
FMVSS No. 205 (except marking requirements) for item of glazing number
6 (AS-6). In this particular situation NHTSA will allow Morgan's
certification statement a surrogate for certification labeling.
    The information on the glazing manufacturer and item of glazing
could be relevant during replacement of the wind deflector. The
probability of obtaining unmarked glazing is nonexistent since spare
glazing is to be obtained through Morgan's dealers and the noncompliant
population (139 items) is already mounted on the motorcycles and sold
to customers.
    In addition, Morgan stated that the glazing manufacturer has taken
steps to correct the problem that caused the noncompliance.
    In consideration of the foregoing, NHTSA has decided that Morgan
has met its burden of persuasion that the FMVSS No. 205 noncompliance
is inconsequential to motor vehicle safety. Accordingly, Morgan's
petition is hereby granted and Morgan is exempted from the obligation
of providing notification of, and a remedy for, the subject
noncompliance under 49 U.S.C. 30118 and 30120.
    NHTSA notes that the statutory provisions (49 U.S.C. 30118(d) and
30120(h)) that permit manufacturers to file petitions for a
determination of inconsequentiality allows NHTSA to exempt
manufacturers only from the duties found in sections 30118 and 30120,
respectively, to notify owners, purchasers, and dealers of a defect or
noncompliance and to remedy the defect or noncompliance. Therefore,
this decision only applies to the subject noncompliant vehicles that
Morgan no longer controlled at the time it determined that the
noncompliance existed. However, the granting of this petition does not
relieve vehicle distributors and dealers of the prohibitions on the
sale, offer for sale, or introduction or delivery for introduction into
interstate commerce of the noncompliant vehicles under their control
after Morgan notified them that the subject noncompliance existed.

[Docket ID FEMA-2018-0002; Internal Agency Docket No. FEMA-B-1818]

Changes in Flood Hazard Determinations

AGENCY: Federal Emergency Management Agency, DHS.

ACTION: Notice.

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

SUMMARY: This notice lists communities where the addition or
modification of Base Flood Elevations (BFEs), base flood depths,
Special Flood Hazard Area (SFHA) boundaries or zone designations, or
the regulatory floodway (hereinafter referred to as flood hazard
determinations), as shown on the Flood Insurance Rate Maps (FIRMs), and
where applicable, in the supporting Flood Insurance Study (FIS)
reports, prepared by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) for
each community, is appropriate because of new scientific or technical
data. The FIRM, and where applicable, portions of the FIS report, have
been revised to reflect these flood hazard determinations through
issuance of a Letter of Map Revision (LOMR), in accordance with Title
44, Part 65 of the Code of Federal Regulations (44 CFR part 65). The
LOMR will be used by insurance agents and others to calculate
appropriate flood insurance premium rates for new buildings and the
contents of those buildings. For rating purposes, the currently
effective community number is shown in the table below and must be used
for all new policies and renewals.

DATES: These flood hazard determinations will be finalized on the dates
listed in the table below and revise the FIRM panels and FIS report in
effect prior to this determination for the listed communities.
    From the date of the second publication of notification of these
changes in a newspaper of local circulation, any person has 90 days in
which to request through the community that the Deputy Associate
Administrator for Insurance and Mitigation reconsider the changes. The
flood hazard determination information may be changed during the 90-day
period.

ADDRESSES: The affected communities are listed in the table below.
Revised flood hazard information for each community is available for
inspection at both the online location and the respective community map
repository address listed in the table below. Additionally, the current
effective FIRM and FIS report for each community are accessible online
through the FEMA Map Service Center at https://msc.fema.gov for
comparison.
    Submit comments and/or appeals to the Chief Executive Officer of
the community as listed in the table below.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Rick Sacbibit, Chief, Engineering
Services Branch, Federal Insurance and Mitigation Administration, FEMA,
400 C Street SW, Washington, DC 20472,<PHONE_NUMBER>, or (email)
[email protected]; or visit the FEMA Map Information
eXchange (FMIX) online at https://www.floodmaps.fema.gov/fhm/fmx_main.html.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The specific flood hazard determinations are
not described for each community in this notice. However, the online
location and local community map repository address where the flood
hazard determination information is available for inspection is
provided.
    Any request for reconsideration of flood hazard determinations must
be submitted to the Chief Executive Officer of the community as listed
in the table below.
    The modifications are made pursuant to section 201 of the Flood
Disaster Protection Act of 1973, 42 U.S.C. 4105, and are in accordance
with the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968, 42 U.S.C. 4001 et seq.,
and with 44 CFR part 65.
    The FIRM and FIS report are the basis of the floodplain management
measures that the community is required either to adopt or to show
evidence of having in effect in order to qualify or remain qualified
for participation in the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP).
    These flood hazard determinations, together with the floodplain
management criteria required by 44 CFR 60.3, are the minimum that are
required. They should not be construed to mean that the community must
change any existing ordinances that are more stringent in their
floodplain management requirements. The community may at any time enact
stricter requirements of its own or pursuant to policies established by
other Federal, State, or regional entities. The flood hazard
determinations are in accordance with 44 CFR 65.4.
    The affected communities are listed in the following table. Flood
hazard determination information for each community is available for
inspection at both the online location and the respective community map
repository address listed in the table below. Additionally, the current
effective FIRM and FIS report for each community are accessible online
through the FEMA Map Service Center at https://msc.fema.gov for
comparison.
