[Docket No. NHTSA-2004-18512]
Highway Safety Programs; Model Specifications for Devices To
Measure Breath Alcohol
AGENCY: National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, DOT.
ACTION: Notice.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: This notice amends the Conforming Products List for
instruments that conform to the Model Specifications for Evidential
Breath Testing Devices (62 FR 62091).
EFFECTIVE DATE: July 14, 2004.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Dr. James F. Frank, Office of Research
and Technology, Behavioral Research Division (NTI-131), National
Highway Traffic Safety Administration, 400 Seventh Street, SW.,
Washington, DC 20590; Telephone: (202) 366-5593.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On November 5, 1973, the National Highway
Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) published the Standards for
Devices to Measure Breath Alcohol (38 FR 30459). A Qualified Products
List of Evidential Breath Measurement Devices comprised of instruments
that met this standard was first issued on November 21, 1974 (39 FR
41399).
On December 14, 1984 (49 FR 48854), NHTSA converted this standard
to Model Specifications for Evidential Breath Testing Devices, and
published a Conforming Products List (CPL) of instruments that were
found to conform to the Model Specifications as Appendix D to that
notice (49 FR 48864).
On September 17, 1993, NHTSA published a notice (58 FR 48705) to
amend the Model Specifications. The notice changed the alcohol
concentration levels at which instruments are evaluated, from 0.000,
0.050, 0.101, and 0.151 BAC, to 0.000, 0.020, 0.040, 0.080, and 0.160
BAC; added a test for the presence of acetone; and expanded the
definition of alcohol to include other low molecular weight alcohols
including methyl or isopropyl. On October 3, 2002, the most recent
amendment to the Conforming Products List (CPL) was published (67 FR
62091), identifying those instruments found to conform with the Model
Specifications.
Since the last publication of the CPL, two (2) instruments have
been evaluated and found to meet the model specifications, as amended
on September 17, 1993, for mobile and non-mobile use. In alphabetical
order by company, they are: (1) The Alcotest 6510 manufactured by
Draeger Safety, Inc., Durango, CO. This is a hand held device intended
for use in stationary or roadside operation and is powered by an
internal battery. It uses a fuel cell sensor. (2) The Alco-Sensor FST
manufactured by Intoximeters, Inc, St. Louis, MO. This is a hand held
device intended for use in stationary or roadside operation and is
powered by an internal battery. It uses a fuel cell sensor. Finally, a
technical correction has to be made in the name of one device on the
CPL. The current CPL lists the ``Intox EC/IR 2'' manufactured by
Intoximeters, Inc., St. Louis, MO, but the device should be listed as
``Intox EC/IR II.''
The CPL has been amended to add the two instruments identified
above to the list, and to make the one technical correction indicated.
In accordance with the foregoing, the CPL is therefore amended, as
set forth below.

*Instruments marked with an asterisk (*) meet the Model Specifications
detailed in 49 FR 48854 (December 14, 1984) (i.e., instruments tested
at 0.000, 0.050, 0.101, and 0.151 BAC). Instruments not marked with an
asterisk meet the Model Specifications detailed in 58 FR 48705
(September 17, 1993), and were tested at BACs = 0.000, 0.020, 0.040,
0.080, and 0.160. All instruments that meet the Model Specifications
currently in effect (dated September 17, 1993) also meet the Model
Specifications for Screening Devices to Measure Alcohol in Bodily
Fluids.
