| 2016-17462 | Hours of Service of Drivers: WestRock Exemption; FAST Act Extension of Compliance Date | Notice | FMCSA announces the extension of the exemption granted to WestRock, formerly known as RockTenn, on April 17, 2014, for short trips to their loading docks. The Agency extends the expiration date from April 17, 2014 to April 16, 2019, in response to the "Fixing America's Surface Transportation Act" (FAST Act). That Act extends the expiration date of hours-of-service (HOS) exemptions in effect on the date of enactment of the FAST Act to 5 years from the date of issuance of the exemptions. The WestRock exemption from the Agency's 14 hour rule is limited to WestRock drivers operating commercial motor vehicles (CMVs) between WestRock shipping and receiving departments only, on the public road (Compress Street). The Agency previously determined that the CMV operations of WestRock's drivers under this exemption would likely achieve a level of safety equivalent to or greater than the level of safety that would be obtained in the absence of the exemption. | 2016-07-25 | 2016 | 7 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2016/07/25/2016-17462/hours-of-service-of-drivers-westrock-exemption-fast-act-extension-of-compliance-date | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2016-07-25/pdf/2016-17462.pdf | Transportation Department; Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration | 492,181 | FMCSA announces the extension of the exemption granted to WestRock, formerly known as RockTenn, on April 17, 2014, for short trips to their loading docks.
