This information is collected to ensure that motor vehicles and engines imported into the U.S. conform with applicable emission requirements. Responses to this

collection are mandatory (40 CFR 85.1501 et seq., and Clean Air Act Sections 203 and 208). Information submitted to the Agency under a claim of confidentiality will

is estimated to average 30 minutes per response. Burden means the total time, effort, or financial resources expended by persons to generate, maintain, retain, or

disclose or provide information to or for a Federal agency. This includes the time needed to review instructions; develop, acquire, install, and utilize technology and

systems for the purposes of collecting, validating, and verifying information, processing and maintaining information, and disclosing and providing information; adjust

the existing ways to comply with any previously applicable instructions and requirements; train personnel to be able to respond to a collection of information; search

data sources; complete and review the collection of information; and transmit or otherwise disclose the information. An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a

person is not required to respond to, a collection of information unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number. Send comments on the Agency's need for this

information, the accuracy of the provided burden estimates, and any suggested methods for minimizing respondent burden, including through the use of automated
