OMB Analytic Tool Reveals Poor Cost-Effectiveness of NHTSA Tire Standards Proposal
OMB, in the President's FY '03 Budget, used a league table to rank the
cost-effectiveness of ten health and safety regulations. OMB noted that
the tables are "most useful" when based on information about potential or
proposed rules. Thus, CRE is undertaking a series of analyses utilizing
league tables to evaluate the cost-effectiveness of proposed regulations.
CRE's first league table analysis is of NHTSA's proposed tire performance
standards for FMVSS No. 139. The analysis found that NHTSA's proposed
tests are less cost-effective than any rule included in OMB's league
table.
