The methods require that independent tire dealers and distributors record, on registration forms, their names and addresses and the identification number of the tires sold to tire purchasers and provide the forms to the purchasers, so that the purchasers may report their names to the new tire manufacturers and new tire brand name owners, and by which other tire dealers and distributors shall record and report the names of tire purchasers to the new tire manufacturers and new tire brand name owners.
Affected Public: Business or other for-profit.
Estimated Total Annual Burden: 271,750 hours and $954,000.00.
