DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION National Highway Traffic Safety Administration 49 CFR Part 593 Docket No. NHTSA-2012-0120 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 (FMVSS) that NHTSA has decided to be eligible for importation.
This list is published in an appendix to the agency's
regulations that prescribe procedures for import eligibility decisions.
The list has been revised to add all vehicles that
NHTSA has decided to be eligible for importation since October 1, 2010, and to remove all previously listed vehicles that are now more than 25 years old and need no longer comply with all applicable FMVSS to be lawfully imported.
NHTSA is required by
statute to publish this list annually in the Federal Register. DATES: This rule is effective on [Insert date of publication in the Federal Register]. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
George Stevens, Office of Vehicle
Safety Compliance, NHTSA, (202) 366-5308.
2 SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 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.
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 FMVSS 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 NHTSA.
The agency publishes notices of
eligibility decisions as they are made. 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.
On October 1, 1996, NHTSA added
the list as an appendix to 49 CFR Part 593, the regulations that
3 establish procedures for import eligibility decisions (61 FR 51242).
As described in the notice, 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 the notice, 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).

REGULATORY ANALYSES AND NOTICES: A.
Executive Order 12866, Regulatory Planning and Review Executive Order 12866, “Regulatory Planning and Review” (58 FR
51735, October 4, 1993), provides for making determinations about whether a regulatory action is “significant” and therefore subject to Office of Management and Budget (OMB) review and to the requirements of the Executive Order.
The Executive Order defines a
“significant regulatory action” as one that is likely to result in a rule that may: (1) Have an annual effect on the economy of $100 million or more or adversely affects in a material way the economy, a sector of the economy, productivity, competition, jobs, the environment, public health or safety, or State, local, or Tribal governments or communities;
4 (2) Create a serious inconsistency or otherwise interfere with an action taken or planned by another agency; (3) Materially alter the budgetary impact of entitlements, grants, user fees, or loan programs or the rights and obligations of recipients thereof; or (4) Raise novel legal or policy issues arising out of legal mandates, the President’s priorities, or the principles set forth in the Executive Order.
This rule will not have any of these
effects and was not reviewed under Executive Order 12866.
It is
not significant within the meaning of the DOT Regulatory Policies and Procedures. requirements.
The effect of this rule is not to impose new Instead it provides a summary compilation of
decisions on import eligibility that have already been made and does not involve new decisions. additional burden on any person.
This rule will not impose any Accordingly, the agency believes
that the preparation of a regulatory evaluation is not warranted for this rule. B.
Environmental Impacts We have not conducted an evaluation of the impacts of this
rule under the National Environmental Policy Act.
This rule does
not impose any change that would result in any impacts to the quality of the human environment. assessment is required. C.
Regulatory Flexibility Act
Accordingly, no environmental
5 Pursuant to the Regulatory Flexibility Act, we have considered the impacts of this rule on small entities (5 U.S.C. Sec. 601 et seq.).
I certify that this rule will not have a significant
economic impact upon a substantial number of small entities within the context of the Regulatory Flexibility Act. The following is our statement providing the factual basis for the certification (5 U.S.C. Sec. 605(b)).
This rule will not have any
significant economic impact on a substantial number of small businesses because the rule merely furnishes information by revising the list in the Code of Federal Regulations of vehicles for which import eligibility decisions have previously been made. Accordingly, we have not prepared a Final Regulatory Flexibility Analysis. D.
Executive Order 13132, Federalism Executive Order 13132 requires NHTSA to develop an accountable
process to ensure “meaningful and timely input by State and local officials in the development of regulatory policies that have federalism implications.”
Executive Order 13132 defines the term
“Policies that have federalism implications” to include regulations that have “substantial direct effects on the States, on the relationship between the national government and the States, or on the distribution of power and responsibilities among the various levels of government.”
Under Executive Order 13132, NHTSA may not
issue a regulation that has federalism implications, that imposes substantial direct compliance costs, and that is not required by
6 statute, unless the Federal government provides the funds necessary to pay the direct compliance costs incurred by State and local governments, or NHTSA consults with State and local officials early in the process of developing the regulation. This rule will have no direct effect on the States, on the relationship between the national government and the States, or on the distribution of power and responsibilities among the various levels of government as specified in Executive Order 13132.
Thus, the requirements of section 6 of the Executive
Order do not apply to this rule. E.
The Unfunded Mandates Reform Act The Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (Public Law 104-4)
requires agencies to prepare a written assessment of the costs, benefits and other effects of proposed or final rules that include a Federal mandate likely to result in the expenditure by State, local or tribal governments, in the aggregate, or by the private sector, of more than $100 million annually.
This rule will not
result in additional expenditures by State, local or tribal governments or by any members of the private sector.
Therefore,
the agency has not prepared an economic assessment pursuant to the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act. F.
Paperwork Reduction Act Under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et
seq.), a person is not required to respond to a collection of information by a Federal agency unless the collection displays a
7 valid OMB control number.
This rule does not impose any new
collection of information requirements for which a 5 CFR Part 1320 clearance must be obtained.
DOT previously submitted to
OMB and OMB approved the collection of information associated with the vehicle importation program in OMB Clearance No. 2127-0002. G.
Civil Justice Reform Pursuant to Executive Order 12988, “Civil Justice Reform,” we
have considered whether this rule has any retroactive effect.
We
conclude that it will not have such an effect. H.
Plain Language Executive Order 12866 requires each agency to write all rules
in plain language.
Application of the principles of plain language
includes consideration of the following questions: - Have we organized the material to suit the public’s needs? - Are the requirements in the rule clearly stated? - Does the rule contain technical language or jargon that is not clear? - Would a different format (grouping and order of sections, use of headings, paragraphing) make the rule easier to understand? - Would more (but shorter) sections be better? - Could we improve clarity by adding tables, lists, or diagrams? - What else could we do to make the rule easier to understand?
8 If you wish to do so, please comment on the extent to which this final rule effectively uses plain language principles. I.
National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act Under the National Technology and Transfer and Advancement Act
of 1995 (Public Law 104-113), “all Federal agencies and departments shall use technical standards that are developed or adopted by voluntary consensus standards bodies, using such technical standards as a means to carry out policy objectives or activities determined by the agencies and departments.” This rule does not require the use of any technical standards. J.
Privacy Act Anyone is able to search the electronic form of all comments
received into any of our dockets by the name of the individual submitting the comment (or signing the comment, if submitted on behalf of an association, business, labor union, etc.).
You may
review DOT's complete Privacy Act Statement in the Federal Register published on April 11, 2000 (Volume 65, Number 70; Pages 19477-78). K.
Executive Order 13045, Economically Significant Rules
Disproportionately Affecting Children This rule is not subject to Executive Order 13045 because it is not “economically significant” as defined under Executive Order 12866, and does not concern an environmental, health, or safety risk that NHTSA has reason to believe may have a disproportionate effect on children.
9 L.
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.
This rule merely revises
the list of vehicles not originally manufactured to conform to the FMVSS that NHTSA has decided to be eligible for importation into the United States since the last list was published in September, 2010. 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 572 to 599, which is due for revision on October 1, 2011, 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 is amended as follows: Part 593 - [AMENDED] 1.
The authority citation for Part 593 is revised to read as
follows: Authority: 49 U.S.C. 322 and 30141(b); delegation of authority at 49 CFR 1.95. 2.
Appendix A to Part 593 is revised to read as follows:
10 Appendix A to Part 593 - List of Vehicles Determined to be Eligible for Importation. (a) 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. (1) "VSA" eligibility numbers are assigned to all vehicles that are decided to be eligible for importation on the initiative of the Administrator under § 593.8. (2) "VSP" eligibility numbers are assigned to vehicles that are decided to be eligible under § 593.7(f), based on a petition from a manufacturer or registered importer submitted under § 593.5(a)(1), which establishes that a substantially similar U.S.certified vehicle exists. (3) "VCP" eligibility numbers are assigned to vehicles that are decided to be eligible under § 593.7(f), based on a petition from a manufacturer or registered importer submitted under § 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 FMVSS. (b) Vehicles for which eligibility decisions have been made are listed alphabetically, first by make and then by model. (c) All hyphens used in the Model Year column mean "through" (for example, "1989-1991" means "1989 through 1991").
11 (d) The initials "MC" used in the Make column mean "Motorcycle." (e) The initials "SWB" used in the Model Type column mean "Short Wheel Base." (f) The initials "LWB" used in the Model Type column mean "Long Wheel Base." (g) For vehicles with a European country of origin, the term “Model Year” ordinarily means calendar year in which the vehicle was produced. (h) All vehicles are left-hand-drive (LHD) vehicles unless noted as RHD.
The initials "RHD" used in the Model Type column
mean “Right-Hand-Drive.”

DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION National Highway Traffic Safety Administration 49 CFR Part 593 Docket No. NHTSA-2012-0120 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 (FMVSS) that NHTSA has decided to be eligible for importation.
This list is published in an appendix to the agency's
regulations that prescribe procedures for import eligibility decisions.
The list has been revised to add all vehicles that
NHTSA has decided to be eligible for importation since October 1, 2010, and to remove all previously listed vehicles that are now more than 25 years old and need no longer comply with all applicable FMVSS to be lawfully imported.
NHTSA is required by
statute to publish this list annually in the Federal Register. DATES: This rule is effective on [Insert date of publication in the Federal Register]. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
George Stevens, Office of Vehicle
Safety Compliance, NHTSA, (202) 366-5308.
2 SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 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.
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 FMVSS 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 NHTSA.
The agency publishes notices of
eligibility decisions as they are made. 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.
On October 1, 1996, NHTSA added
the list as an appendix to 49 CFR Part 593, the regulations that
3 establish procedures for import eligibility decisions (61 FR 51242).
As described in the notice, 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 the notice, 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).

REGULATORY ANALYSES AND NOTICES: A.
Executive Order 12866, Regulatory Planning and Review Executive Order 12866, “Regulatory Planning and Review” (58 FR
51735, October 4, 1993), provides for making determinations about whether a regulatory action is “significant” and therefore subject to Office of Management and Budget (OMB) review and to the requirements of the Executive Order.
The Executive Order defines a
“significant regulatory action” as one that is likely to result in a rule that may: (1) Have an annual effect on the economy of $100 million or more or adversely affects in a material way the economy, a sector of the economy, productivity, competition, jobs, the environment, public health or safety, or State, local, or Tribal governments or communities;
4 (2) Create a serious inconsistency or otherwise interfere with an action taken or planned by another agency; (3) Materially alter the budgetary impact of entitlements, grants, user fees, or loan programs or the rights and obligations of recipients thereof; or (4) Raise novel legal or policy issues arising out of legal mandates, the President’s priorities, or the principles set forth in the Executive Order.
This rule will not have any of these
effects and was not reviewed under Executive Order 12866.
It is
not significant within the meaning of the DOT Regulatory Policies and Procedures. requirements.
The effect of this rule is not to impose new Instead it provides a summary compilation of
decisions on import eligibility that have already been made and does not involve new decisions. additional burden on any person.
This rule will not impose any Accordingly, the agency believes
that the preparation of a regulatory evaluation is not warranted for this rule. B.
Environmental Impacts We have not conducted an evaluation of the impacts of this
rule under the National Environmental Policy Act.
This rule does
not impose any change that would result in any impacts to the quality of the human environment. assessment is required. C.
Regulatory Flexibility Act
Accordingly, no environmental
5 Pursuant to the Regulatory Flexibility Act, we have considered the impacts of this rule on small entities (5 U.S.C. Sec. 601 et seq.).
I certify that this rule will not have a significant
economic impact upon a substantial number of small entities within the context of the Regulatory Flexibility Act. The following is our statement providing the factual basis for the certification (5 U.S.C. Sec. 605(b)).
This rule will not have any
significant economic impact on a substantial number of small businesses because the rule merely furnishes information by revising the list in the Code of Federal Regulations of vehicles for which import eligibility decisions have previously been made. Accordingly, we have not prepared a Final Regulatory Flexibility Analysis. D.
Executive Order 13132, Federalism Executive Order 13132 requires NHTSA to develop an accountable
process to ensure “meaningful and timely input by State and local officials in the development of regulatory policies that have federalism implications.”
Executive Order 13132 defines the term
“Policies that have federalism implications” to include regulations that have “substantial direct effects on the States, on the relationship between the national government and the States, or on the distribution of power and responsibilities among the various levels of government.”
Under Executive Order 13132, NHTSA may not
issue a regulation that has federalism implications, that imposes substantial direct compliance costs, and that is not required by
6 statute, unless the Federal government provides the funds necessary to pay the direct compliance costs incurred by State and local governments, or NHTSA consults with State and local officials early in the process of developing the regulation. This rule will have no direct effect on the States, on the relationship between the national government and the States, or on the distribution of power and responsibilities among the various levels of government as specified in Executive Order 13132.
Thus, the requirements of section 6 of the Executive
Order do not apply to this rule. E.
The Unfunded Mandates Reform Act The Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (Public Law 104-4)
requires agencies to prepare a written assessment of the costs, benefits and other effects of proposed or final rules that include a Federal mandate likely to result in the expenditure by State, local or tribal governments, in the aggregate, or by the private sector, of more than $100 million annually.
This rule will not
result in additional expenditures by State, local or tribal governments or by any members of the private sector.
Therefore,
the agency has not prepared an economic assessment pursuant to the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act. F.
Paperwork Reduction Act Under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et
seq.), a person is not required to respond to a collection of information by a Federal agency unless the collection displays a
7 valid OMB control number.
This rule does not impose any new
collection of information requirements for which a 5 CFR Part 1320 clearance must be obtained.
DOT previously submitted to
OMB and OMB approved the collection of information associated with the vehicle importation program in OMB Clearance No. 2127-0002. G.
Civil Justice Reform Pursuant to Executive Order 12988, “Civil Justice Reform,” we
have considered whether this rule has any retroactive effect.
We
conclude that it will not have such an effect. H.
Plain Language Executive Order 12866 requires each agency to write all rules
in plain language.
Application of the principles of plain language
includes consideration of the following questions: - Have we organized the material to suit the public’s needs? - Are the requirements in the rule clearly stated? - Does the rule contain technical language or jargon that is not clear? - Would a different format (grouping and order of sections, use of headings, paragraphing) make the rule easier to understand? - Would more (but shorter) sections be better? - Could we improve clarity by adding tables, lists, or diagrams? - What else could we do to make the rule easier to understand?
8 If you wish to do so, please comment on the extent to which this final rule effectively uses plain language principles. I.
National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act Under the National Technology and Transfer and Advancement Act
of 1995 (Public Law 104-113), “all Federal agencies and departments shall use technical standards that are developed or adopted by voluntary consensus standards bodies, using such technical standards as a means to carry out policy objectives or activities determined by the agencies and departments.” This rule does not require the use of any technical standards. J.
Privacy Act Anyone is able to search the electronic form of all comments
received into any of our dockets by the name of the individual submitting the comment (or signing the comment, if submitted on behalf of an association, business, labor union, etc.).
You may
review DOT's complete Privacy Act Statement in the Federal Register published on April 11, 2000 (Volume 65, Number 70; Pages 19477-78). K.
Executive Order 13045, Economically Significant Rules
Disproportionately Affecting Children This rule is not subject to Executive Order 13045 because it is not “economically significant” as defined under Executive Order 12866, and does not concern an environmental, health, or safety risk that NHTSA has reason to believe may have a disproportionate effect on children.
9 L.
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.
This rule merely revises
the list of vehicles not originally manufactured to conform to the FMVSS that NHTSA has decided to be eligible for importation into the United States since the last list was published in September, 2010. 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 572 to 599, which is due for revision on October 1, 2011, 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 is amended as follows: Part 593 - [AMENDED] 1.
The authority citation for Part 593 is revised to read as
follows: Authority: 49 U.S.C. 322 and 30141(b); delegation of authority at 49 CFR 1.95. 2.
Appendix A to Part 593 is revised to read as follows:
10 Appendix A to Part 593 - List of Vehicles Determined to be Eligible for Importation. (a) 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. (1) "VSA" eligibility numbers are assigned to all vehicles that are decided to be eligible for importation on the initiative of the Administrator under § 593.8. (2) "VSP" eligibility numbers are assigned to vehicles that are decided to be eligible under § 593.7(f), based on a petition from a manufacturer or registered importer submitted under § 593.5(a)(1), which establishes that a substantially similar U.S.certified vehicle exists. (3) "VCP" eligibility numbers are assigned to vehicles that are decided to be eligible under § 593.7(f), based on a petition from a manufacturer or registered importer submitted under § 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 FMVSS. (b) Vehicles for which eligibility decisions have been made are listed alphabetically, first by make and then by model. (c) All hyphens used in the Model Year column mean "through" (for example, "1989-1991" means "1989 through 1991").
11 (d) The initials "MC" used in the Make column mean "Motorcycle." (e) The initials "SWB" used in the Model Type column mean "Short Wheel Base." (f) The initials "LWB" used in the Model Type column mean "Long Wheel Base." (g) For vehicles with a European country of origin, the term “Model Year” ordinarily means calendar year in which the vehicle was produced. (h) All vehicles are left-hand-drive (LHD) vehicles unless noted as RHD.
The initials "RHD" used in the Model Type column
mean “Right-Hand-Drive.”
