DOT/FMCSA RIN: 2126-AA22 Publication ID: Spring 2004 
Title: Unified Registration System 
Abstract: FMCSA is developing this rulemaking to consider replacing four current identification and registration systems -- USDOT identification number system, single-State registration system, registration/licensing system, and financial responsibility system -- with a unified registration system. It will consolidate and simplify current Federal registration processes and increase public accessibility to data about interstate and foreign motor carriers, property brokers, and freight forwarders. This action is considered significant because of substantial congressional and industry interest.
