Correction
AGENCY: National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA),
Department of Transportation.
ACTION: Final rule; correction.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: This document contains a correction to a final rule (Docket
NHTSA-03-15438) that was published Friday, June 27, 2003. The rule
responded to petitions for reconsideration of final rules pertaining to
Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) No. 225, Child Restraint
Anchorage Systems.
EFFECTIVE DATE: September 19, 2003.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Deirdre R. Fujita, Office of the Chief
Counsel, NHTSA, telephone (202) 366-2992; fax (202) 366-3820, 400
Seventh St., SW., Washington, DC 20590.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The final rule that is the subject of this
correction responded to petitions for reconsideration of the agency's
March 1999 final rule establishing Federal Motor Vehicle Safety
Standard No. 225, Child Restraint Anchorage Systems (49 CFR 571.225),
and of the agency's previous responses to petitions, published in
August 1999 and July 2000.
Need for Correction
As published, the final rule contains errors that are in need of
clarification. One error leads to unclear regulatory text that the
agency wants to correct prior to October 1, when 49 CFR part 571 is
annually revised. Other errors are more minor and will be corrected in
a subsequent Federal Register document that responds to petitions for
reconsideration received on the June 27, 2003 final rule (68 FR 38208).
