Title: Electronic Signatures and Documents; E-Signatures (RRR) 
Abstract:

This rulemaking would incorporate the principles of FMCSA´s regulatory guidance concerning e-signatures and electronic documents by amending various sections of the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations (FMCSRs) to enable the use of e-signatures and e-documents in support of electronic recordkeeping. This would be less burdensome to the motor carrier industry.
