1、182 49 CFR Ch. V (10110 Edition) 557.6 be treated as a properly filed petition, received as of the time it is discovered and identified. (b) A document that fails to conform to one or more of the requirements of 557.4(a) (1) through (5) will not be treated as a petition under this part. Such a docum

2、ent will be treated ac-cording to the existing correspondence and other procedures of the NHTSA, and any information contained in it will be considered at the discretion of the Administrator. 557.6 Determination whether to hold a public hearing. (a) The Administrator considers the following factors

3、in determining whether to hold a hearing: (1) The nature of the complaint; (2) The seriousness of the alleged breach of obligation to remedy; (3) The existence of similar com-plaints; (4) The ability of the NHTSA to re-solve the problem without holding a hearing; and (5) Other pertinent matters. (b)

4、 If, after considering the above fac-tors, the Administrator determines that a hearing should be held, the peti-tion is granted. If it is determined that a hearing should not be held, the peti-tion is denied. In either case, the peti-tioner is notified of the grant or denial not more than 60 days af

5、ter receipt of the petition by the NHTSA. (c) If a petition submitted under this part is denied, a FEDERAL REGISTER no-tice of the denial is issued within 45 days of the denial, setting forth the reasons for it. (d) The Administrator may conduct a hearing under this part on his own mo-tion. 557.7 Pu

6、blic hearing. If the Administrator decides that a public hearing under this part is nec-essary, he issues a notice of public hearing in the FEDERAL REGISTER, to advise interested persons of the time, place, and subject matter of the public hearing and invite their participation. Interested persons m

7、ay submit their views through oral or written presen-tation, or both. There is no cross-exam-ination of witnesses. A transcript of the hearing is kept and exhibits may be accepted as part of the transcript. Sec-tions 556 and 557 of title 5, U.S.C., do not apply to hearings held under this part. When

8、 appropriate, the Chief Counsel designates a member of his staff to serve as legal officer at the hearing. 557.8 Determination of manufactur-ers obligation. If the Administrator determines, on the basis of the information presented at a hearing or any other information that is available to him, that

9、 the man-ufacturer has not reasonably met his obligation to notify owners, dealers, and purchasers of a safety-related de-fect or failure to comply with a Federal motor vehicle safety standard or to remedy such defect or failure to com-ply, he orders the manufacturer to take specified action to comp

10、ly with his obligation, consistent with the au-thority granted the Administrator by the Act.
