Abstract:
At the request of OMB, this submisson breaks out ICR 0783.47, the last renewal of the certification ICR, into five ICs: Light Duty Truck and Light Duty Vehicle Emissions, Fuel Economy, Manufacturers' In-Use Vehicle Program, Highway Motorcycles, and Defect Reports and Voluntary Emission Recall Reports. The aggregate hours and costs of these five ICs together equal the hour and costs authorized in 0783.47 and do not reflect any program changes since that renewal. The Fuel Economy IC will be the baseline for the final rule Fuel Economy Labeling ICR, 0783.51. This submission also adjusts response numbers to count them in the units of emission families or test groups, and causes a change in the aggregate number or respondents only because of the disaggregation.

Short Statement:
This non-substantive change does not affect the burden in ICR 0783.47. It deals exclusively with breaking out the ICR into five ICs and with respondent and response counts. The Form 83-I for 0783.47 claimed 139 respondents (and 139 responses); the approved level was 139 respondents and 16,290 responses. This count of respondents considered all light duty respondents as one group (58 manufacturers) and all motorcycle manufacturers as another (81). This is because the fuel economy (35 respondents), IUVP (28) and DRVERR (22) respondents were subsets of the 58 certified light duty respondents. With disaggregation, however, it seems sensible to count respondents separately under each IC, for a total of 166. Similarly, the most intuitive unit of analysis for counting responses is the engine family or test group for all vehicles. With a database that has hundreds of data fields and thousands of possible actions, which are invoked in unique patterns based on individual manufacturer circumstances, this is the most tractable unit for burden accounting purposes, even though it may involve a varying number of actions under the same engine family across and within ICs, depending on the engine familys unique circumstances. Again, engine families will be double counted if they are listed separately for each IC, but this is the approach that has been followed here, and it involves much less double or ambiguous counting than other possible units.
