| 2010-17138 | Hours of Service; Limited Exemption for the Distribution of Anhydrous Ammonia in Agricultural Operations | Proposed Rule | FMCSA announces its proposal to grant a 2-year, limited exemption from the Federal hours-of-service regulations for the transportation of anhydrous ammonia from any distribution point to a local farm retailer or to the ultimate consumer, and from a local farm retailer to the ultimate consumer, as long as the transportation takes place within a 100 air-mile radius of the retail or wholesale distribution point. This exemption would extend the agricultural operations exemption established by section 345 of the National Highway System Designation Act of 1995, as amended, by the sections 4115 and 4130 of the Safe, Accountable, Flexible, Efficient Transportation Equity: A Legacy for Users (SAFETEA-LU) to certain drivers and motor carriers engaged in the distribution of anhydrous ammonia during the planting and harvesting seasons, as defined by the States in which the carriers and drivers operate. The Agency believes that the exemption would likely achieve a level of safety that is equivalent to, or greater than, the level that would be achieved absent such exemption, based on the terms and conditions imposed. This exemption would preempt inconsistent State and local requirements applicable to interstate commerce. | 2010-07-14 | 2010 | 7 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2010/07/14/2010-17138/hours-of-service-limited-exemption-for-the-distribution-of-anhydrous-ammonia-in-agricultural | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2010-07-14/pdf/2010-17138.pdf | Transportation Department; Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration | 492,181 | FMCSA announces its proposal to grant a 2-year, limited exemption from the Federal hours-of-service regulations for the transportation of anhydrous ammonia from any distribution point to a local farm retailer or to the ultimate consumer, and from a... |
