The Department of Transportation (DOT) invites public comments about our intention to request the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) renewed approval for an existing collection of information for brake fluid labeling in 49 CFR 571.116, ``Motor Vehicle Brake Fluids.'' Under procedures established by the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, before seeking OMB approval, Federal agencies must solicit public comment on proposed collections of information, including extensions and reinstatement of previously approved collections. This existing collection involves labeling requirements for manufacturers and packagers of brake fluids, as well as packagers of hydraulic system mineral oils. The information to be collected will be used to and/or is necessary to insure the following: The contents of the container are clearly stated; these fluids are used for their intended purpose only; and, the containers are properly disposed of when empty.

packagers of brake fluids, as well as packagers of hydraulic system 
mineral oils. The information to be collected will be used to and/or is 
necessary to insure the following: The contents of the container are 
clearly stated; these fluids are used for their intended purpose only; 
and, the containers are properly disposed of when empty.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, 
before an agency submits a proposed collection of information to OMB 
for approval, it must first publish a document in the Federal Register 
providing a 60-day comment period and otherwise consult with members of 
the public and affected agencies concerning each proposed collection of 
information. The OMB has promulgated regulations describing what must 
be included in such a document. Under OMB's regulation (at 5 CFR 
1320.8(d)), an agency must ask for public comment on the following:
    (1) Whether the proposed collection of information is necessary for 
the proper performance of the functions of the agency, including 
whether the information will have practical utility;
    (2) The accuracy of the agency's estimate of the burden of the 
proposed collection of information, including the validity of the 
methodology and assumptions used;
    (3) How to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the 
information to be collected;
    (4) How to minimize the burden of the collection of information on 
those who are to respond, including the use of appropriate automated, 
electronic, mechanical, or other technological collection techniques or 
other forms of information technology, e.g. permitting electronic 
submission of responses.
    In compliance with these requirements, NHTSA asks for public 
comments on the following collection of information:
    Title: Labeling of Motor Vehicle Brake Fluid Containers in 49 CFR 
571.116
    OMB Control Number: 2127-0521
    Form Numbers: This collection of information uses no standard form.
    Type of Request: Extension of a currently approved collection of 
information.
    Summary of the Collection of Information: In 49 CFR 571.116 
(Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 116, ``Motor Vehicle Brake 
Fluid''), there are performance and design requirements for motor 
vehicle brake fluids and hydraulic system mineral oils. In Section 
5.2.2 of the standard, there are also labeling requirements for 
manufacturers and packagers of brake fluids, as well as packagers of 
hydraulic system mineral oils.
    Description of the Need for the Information and the Use of the 
Information: Properties of these fluids and their use necessitate the 
package labeling information specified in this standard. The 
information on the label of a container of motor vehicle brake fluid or 
hydraulic system mineral oil is necessary to ensure: The contents of 
the container are clearly stated; these fluids are used for their 
intended purpose only; and the containers are properly disposed of when 
empty. Without this labeling requirement, there could be improper use 
or storage of these brake fluids, which would have dire safety 
consequences for the operators of vehicles or the equipment in which 
they are used.
    Description of the Likely Respondents (Including Estimated Number 
and Proposed Frequency of Response to the Collection of Information): 
We estimate that the collection of information affects 200 respondents 
annually, which are manufacturers and packagers of brake fluids and 
hydraulic mineral oils.
    Estimate of the Total Annual Reporting and Recordkeeping Burden 
Resulting from the Collection of Information: The estimated annual 
burden is as follows:
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 200.
    Estimated Number of Responses (labels): 70,000,000.
    Estimated Total Annual Burden: 7000 hours.
    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; the accuracy of the Department's estimate of the burden of the 
proposed information collection; ways to enhance the quality, utility 
and clarity of the information to be collected; and 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.

    Authority:  The Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995; 44 U.S.C. 
Chapter 35, as amended; and 49 CFR 1.95.

Associate Administrator for Rulemaking, National Highway Traffic Safety
