| 2024-29268 | Implementing the Whistleblower Provisions of the Vehicle Safety Act | Rule | This final rule addresses an important source of motor vehicle safety information and fulfills a requirement in the Motor Vehicle Safety Whistleblower Act (Whistleblower Act) that NHTSA promulgate regulations on the requirements of the Act, in complement to NHTSA's existing whistleblower program. The Whistleblower Act authorizes the Secretary of Transportation to pay an award, subject to certain limitations, to eligible whistleblowers who voluntarily provide original information relating to any motor vehicle defect, noncompliance, or any violation or alleged violation of any notification or reporting requirement, which is likely to cause unreasonable risk of death or serious physical injury, if the information provided leads to the successful resolution of a covered action. This final rule defines certain terms important to the operation of the whistleblower program, outlines the procedures for submitting original information to NHTSA and applying for awards, discusses NHTSA's procedures for making decisions on award applications, and generally explains the scope of the whistleblower program to the public and potential whistleblowers. | 2024-12-17 | 2024 | 12 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2024/12/17/2024-29268/implementing-the-whistleblower-provisions-of-the-vehicle-safety-act | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2024-12-17/pdf/2024-29268.pdf | Transportation Department; National Highway Traffic Safety Administration | 492,345 | This final rule addresses an important source of motor vehicle safety information and fulfills a requirement in the Motor Vehicle Safety Whistleblower Act (Whistleblower Act) that NHTSA promulgate regulations on the requirements of the Act, in... |
