| Title: ●Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations; Zero-Base Revision | |
| Abstract: The FMCSA is revising the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations (FMCSRs) and related regulations. In 1992, a "Zero-Base Review" was launched to improve the organization, format and clarity of the FMCSRs and collateral regulations. This proposal represents the most recent phase of a six-year "zero-based" review of motor carrier safety regulations to establish more effective, enforceable requirements. This action is the product of that review. It proposes provisions that could affect public safety and potentially raises novel policy issues concerning federalism. The changes proposed here constitute a major rewrite of the FMCSRs, including significant format and organizational changes, as well as a significant decrease in administration, recordkeeping, and paperwork burdens (an estimated reduction of 37 million burden hours). This action is significant under the regulatory policies and procedures of the DOT because of the substantial public interest concerning motor carrier safety issues. | |
