SC 29301;
Dear Mr. McDonnell: This is in response to your letter of January 6, 1984 regarding whethe South Carolina has received approval from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) for use of its title documents in lieu of the Federal odometer disclosure statement.; South Carolina submitted its motor vehicle title forms to this agenc for approval, but its odometer disclosure statement was unacceptable. South Carolina was advised that before its title form could be approved, certain additional information must be incorporated. We do not know if the recommended changes were made.; Please note, however, that if South Carolina has incorporated th required information into its title, it need not obtain the approval of this agency in order to use that title in lieu of a separate Federal form. If you have additional questions regarding South Carolina's title documents, please submit them to my attention. I will be glad to review them.; Sincerely, Frank Berndt, Chief Counsel
