    OMB Control Number: 2127-0588.
    Title: Air Bag Deactivation.
    Type of Review: Renewal of a previously approved information 
collection.
    Abstract: If a private individual or lessee wants to install an air 
bag on-off switch to turn-off either or both frontal air bags, they 
must complete Form OMB 2127-0588 to certify certain statements 
regarding use of the switch. The dealer or business must, in turn, 
submit the completed forms to NHTSA within seven days. The submission 
of the completed forms by the dealers and repair business to NHTSA, as 
required, will serve the agency several purposes. They will aid the 
agency in monitoring the number of authorization requests submitted and 
the pattern in claims of risk group membership. The completed forms 
will enable the agency to determine whether the dealers and repair 
business are complying with the terms of the exemption, which include a 
requirement that the dealers and repair businesses accept only fully 
completed forms. Finally, submission of the completed forms to the 
agency will promote honesty and accuracy in the filling out of the 
forms by vehicle owners. The air bag on-off switches are installed only 
in vehicles in which the risk of harm needs to be minimized on a case-
by-case basis.
    Affected Public: Private Individuals, fleet owners and lessees, 
motor vehicle dealers, and repair business.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 750.
    Number of Responses: 750.
    Estimated Total Annual Burden: 375.
    Public Comments Invited: You are asked to comment on any aspect of 
this information collection, including (a) Whether the proposed 
collection of information is necessary for the Department's 
performance; (b) the accuracy of the estimated burden; (c) ways for the 
Department to enhance the quality, utility and clarity of the 
information collection; and (d) ways that the burden could be minimized 
without reducing the quality of the collected information. The agency 
will summarize and/or include your comments in the request for OMB's 
clearance of this information collection.

    Authority:  The Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995; 44 U.S.C. 
Chapter 35, as amended; and 49 CFR 1:48.
