ATTACHMT: ATTACHED TO LETTER DATED 11-10-75 TO JOHN B. WHITE FROM FRANK A. BERNDT.

TEXT: This is in regard to our telephone conversation of yesterday concerning truck tires brought into the U.S.A. to be mounted on vehicles which are to be exported outside the U.S.A.

Please verify that tires imported for this purpose need not conform to FMVSS 119, Pneumatic Tires for Vehicles other than Passenger Cars or Part 574, Tire Identification and Record Keeping.

This decision affects a current tire shipment, so therefore we would appreciate your prompt reply.

Thank you.
