Dear Mr. Spretnjak: This is in reply to your letter of June 28, 1974, requesting the statu of a proposed amendment published January 9, 1971 (36 F.R. 327), to Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 205, 'Glazing Materials,' that would have required markings specified for windshields to appear in each windshield's lower left-hand corner.; This proposed requirement was not adopted. Other requirements propose by this notice, however, were adopted by a subsequent notice published June 21, 1972 (37 F.R. 12237), which amended Standard No. 205. The preamble of this notice referred to the agency's action on the proposed requirements for marking location. A further notice was issued on November 11, 1972 (37 F.R. 24035), which responded to petitions for reconsideration of the amendments of June 21, 1972. Copies of the notices of June 21 and November 11, 1972, are enclosed.; There are presently no requirements regarding the location of marking for motor vehicle glazing materials.; Yours truly, Richard B. Dyson, Acting Chief Counsel
