TITLE: FMVSR INTERPRETATION

TEXT: This is in reply to your letter of September 10, 1971, concerning the Defects Reports regulations, 49 CFR Part 573. You ask whether @ 573.6 (Owner Lists) requires that the list "show only the latest quarterly status of inspection and defect correction", or whether all prior quarterly lists must also be retained.

Section 573.6 of the regulation requires the owner list to be "updated as of the end of each quarterly reporting period," with the list being retained for five years after the date on which the defect information report is initially submitted.

We do not consider this section to require all prior quarterly lists to be retained. Therefore if you maintain a list that shows only the latest quarterly status of inspection and defect correction you will be in compliance with the requirements.

WE ARE PLEASED TO BE OF ASSISTANCE.
