TITLE: FMVSR INTERPRETATION

TEXT: This is in response to your letter of December 15, 1970 in which you asked whether it would be permissible to add the words "and Canadian" to your certification label.

With reference to a telephone conversation between you and Mr. Dyson of this office, I understand that the Canadian authorities will accept the certification statement that we presently require as long as the expression "U.S." does not appear on the label. Since use of the "U.S." is optional with the manufacturer under 49 CFR @ 367.4(g)(3), this appears to solve your problem in this regard.

We are pleased to be of assistance.
