For additional information about EPA's public docket, visit *http://www.epa.gov/dockets.* *Abstract:* EPA has an ongoing program to evaluate the emission performance of in-use light-duty (passenger car and light truck) motor vehicles through surveillance and compliance testing, as well as special investigations in compliance with the Clean Air Act (42 U.S.C. 7541). This ICR involves light-duty surveys and vehicle testing, which is strictly voluntary. A group of 25 to 50 potential participants is identified from state vehicle registration records. Three of the respondent pool are asked survey questions concerning vehicle condition, operation and maintenance. Additional groups of potential participants may be contacted until a sufficient number of vehicles have been obtained. Owners verify the survey information when they deliver their vehicles to EPA, release the vehicle to EPA, voluntarily provide maintenance records for copying, receive a cash incentive and, if requested, a loaner car, then receive the vehicle from EPA at the conclusion of the testing. *Form Numbers:* 5900-304, 5900-305, 5900-306, 5900-307, 5900-308, 5900-309. *Respondents/affected entities:* Vehicle owners. *Respondent's obligation to respond:* Voluntary. *Estimated number of respondents:* 160 (total). *Frequency of response:* On occasion. *Total estimated burden:* 505 hours (per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR 1320.03(b). *Total estimated cost:* $11,277, which includes $0 annualized capital or operational & maintenance costs. *Changes in Estimates:* There is a decrease of 16 hours in the total estimated respondent burden compared with the ICR currently approved by OMB. This decrease is due to an adjustment of testing estimates based on the number and type of testing that has been conducted in this program over the past few years.
