Burden is defined at 5 CFR 1320.3(b). <E T="03">Total estimated cost:</E> $102,388,928.41 (per year), includes $45,650,002.40 annualized capital or operation & maintenance costs. <E T="03">Changes in the estimates:</E> There is a decrease of 328 hours in the total estimated respondent burden compared with the ICR currently approved by OMB. This decrease is due largely to fewer respondents than the previous ICR and more manufacturers utilizing carrying over data from previous model years to demonstrate compliance with the standards. <SIG> <NAME>Courtney Kerwin,</NAME> Deputy Director, Data and Enterprise Programs Division. </SIG> </SUPLINF> <FRDOC>[FR Doc. 2025-23922 Filed 12-29-25; 8:45 am]</FRDOC> </NOTICE>
