Title: Insurer Reporting Requirement
for 49 CFR Part 544.
OMB Control Number: 2127–0547.
Affected Public: Business or other for-
profit.
Form Number: The collection of
information uses no standard forms.
Abstract: This information collection
supports the Department’s strategic goal
of Economic Growth and Trade. The
Motor Vehicle Theft Law Enforcement
Act of 1984, added Title VI to the Motor
Vehicle and Information Cost Savings
Act (recodified as Chapter 331 of Title
49, United States Code) (copy attached)
which mandated this information
collection. The 1984 Theft act was
amended by the Anti Car Theft Act
(ACTA) of 1992 (Pub. L. 102–519).
NHTSA is authorized under 49 U.S.C.
33112, to collect this information. This
information collection supports the
agency’s economic growth and trade
goal through rulemaking
implementation developed to help
reduce the cost of vehicle ownership by
reducing the cost of comprehensive
insurance coverage. 49 U.S.C. 33112
requires certain passenger motor vehicle
insurance companies and rental/leasing
companies to provide information to
NHTSA on comprehensive insurance
premiums, theft and recoveries and
actions taken to address motor vehicle
theft.
Estimated Annual Burden: Based on
prior years’ insurer compilation
information, the agency estimates that
the time to review and compile
information for the reports will take
approximately a total of 66,300 burden
hours (56,700 man-hours for 28
insurance companies and 9,600 man-
hours for 17 rental and leasing
companies). Most recent year insurer
compilation information estimates that
it takes an average cost of $36.00 per
hour for clerical and technical staff to
prepare the annual reports. Therefore,
the agency estimates the total cost
associated with the burden hours to be
$2,386,800.
The burden hour for rental and
leasing companies is significantly less
than that for insurance companies
because rental and leasing companies
comply with fewer reporting
requirements than the insurance
companies. The reporting burden is
based on claim adjusters’ salaries,
clerical and technical expenses, and
labor costs.
Number of Respondents: 45.
Comments are invited on: Whether
the proposed collection of information
is necessary for the proper performance
of the functions of the Department,
including whether the information will
have practical utility; the accuracy of
VerDate Aug<31>2005 20:13 Nov 28, 2005 Jkt 208001
the Department’s estimate of the burden
of the proposed information collection;
ways to enhance the quality, utility and
clarity of the information to be
collected; and ways to minimize the
burden of the collection of information
on respondents, including the use of
automated collection techniques or
other forms of information technology.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title: Elections Under Section 338 for
Corporations Making Qualified Stock
Purchases.
OMB Number: 1545–1428.
Form Number: 8023.
Abstract: Form 8023 is used by a
corporation that acquires the stock of
another corporation to elect to treat the
purchase of stock as a purchase of the
other corporation’s assets. This election
allows the acquiring corporation to
depreciate these assets and claim a
deduction on its income tax return. IRS
uses Form 8023 to determine if the
election is properly made and as a check
against the acquiring corporation’s
deduction for depreciation. The form is
also used to determine if the selling
corporation reports the amount of sale
in its income.
Current Actions: There are no changes
being made to Form 8023 at this time.
Type of Review: Extension of a
currently approved collection.
Affected Public: Businesses or other
for-profit organizations.
