TITLE: FMVSS INTERPRETATION

TEXT: This is in response to your December 27, 1976, letter concerning the effect of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 301-75, Fuel System Integrity, on the auxiliary fuel tanks that you manufacture for pickup trucks. The question you have asked was addressed in my November 10, 1976, letter to Mr. Charles Atkinson. It does not appear that you are in danger of going out of the auxiliary tank business.

A copy of that letter is enclosed for your convenience.
