Title: New Entrant Safety Assurance Process | |
Abstract: This rule will change the New Entrant Safety Assurance Process by raising the standard of compliance for passing the new entrant safety audit. It also makes clarifying changes to some of the existing new entrant regulations. The rule also proposes a separate application procedure and safety oversight system for non-North America-domiciled motor carriers. The rule will improve the Agency's ability to identify at-risk new entrant carriers and will ensure deficiencies in basic safety management controls are corrected before the new entrant is granted permanent registration. These changes will not impose additional operational requirements on any new entrant carrier. All new entrants will continue to receive educational information on how to comply with the safety regulations and be given an opportunity to correct any deficiencies found. FMCSA recognizes many new entrants are small businesses that are unaware of these requirements and continue to need our assistance. | |
