Dear Ms. Seastrand: Thank you for your letter forwarding the concern of Mr. Eric Brandt regarding the use of aircraft tires on the dollies that he uses to move houses and other structures on the highway. I am pleased to have this opportunity to respond. Your office's description of Mr. Brandt's concerns was as follows: He is upset because the California Highway Patrol has stopped him from his house moving business because he is using aircraft tires on the dollies he uses to move the houses. He thinks that the law is being interpreted incorrectly. He is using low profile tires, and he thinks the law means the high floatation tires. The California Highway Patrol officer told Mr. Brandt to contact the Federal Department of Motor Vehicles and find out. In the meantime, he is out of business. Can we help? In accordance with your request, we have prepared a response directly to Mr. Brandt (copy enclosed). If I can be of further assistance, please contact me or Walter Myers of my staff at this address or at (202) 366-2992. Sincerely, Philip R. Recht Chief Counsel Enclosure;
