(202)366-3151. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On October 28, 2003, NHTSA published a notice (at 68 FR 61549) that it had received a petition to decide that nonconforming 2002 and 2003 Ferrari 575 passenger cars are eligible for importation into the United States. The notice solicited public comments on the petition and stated that the closing date for comments is November 28, 2003. This is to notify the public that NHTSA is extending the comment period until December 12, 2003. This extension is based on a request from Ferrari North America, Inc. (FNA), the U.S. representative of the vehicle's manufacturer, Ferrari, SpA. In requesting the extension, FNA that “the employee of Ferrari SpA who has, among other duties, principal responsibility for technical analysis of importation eligibility petitions has been traveling on company business and therefore has not yet provided FNA with the information needed by FNA to prepare comments in the proceeding.” FNA contended that the requested 2-week extension of the comment period “will not prejudice the parties or unduly delay the proceeding.” NHTSA has granted FNA's request. All comments received before the close of business on the closing date indicated above will be considered, and will be available for examination in the docket at the above address both before and after that date. To the extent possible, comments filed after the closing date will also be considered. Notice of final action on the petition will be published in the **Federal Register** pursuant to the authority indicated below. Authority: 49 U.S.C. 30141(a)(1)(A) and (b)(1); 49 CFR 593.8; delegations of authority at 49 CFR 1.50 and 501.8. Issued on: December 2, 2003. Kenneth N. Weinstein, Associate Administrator for Enforcement. [FR Doc. 03-30279 Filed 12-4-03; 8:45 am]
