| 2017-23348 | Hours of Service of Drivers: Application for Exemption; Pipe Line Contractors Association (PLCA) | Notice | FMCSA announces its decision to deny the application of the Pipe Line Contractors Association (PLCA) from the requirement that a motor carrier install and require each of its drivers to use an electronic logging device (ELD) to record the driver's hours-of-service (HOS) no later than December 18, 2017. PLCA had requested the exemption for all pipeline contractor vehicle drivers who typically use the short-haul exception to the logging requirement, which also exempts them from using ELDs. Sometimes, however, they may exceed the conditions of the short-haul exception more than 8 days in a 30-day period, which would subject them to the ELD rule. FMCSA has analyzed the exemption application and public comments, and has determined that the applicant would not achieve a level of safety that is equivalent to, or greater than, the level that would be achieved absent such exemption. FMCSA therefore denies PLCA's application for exemption. | 2017-10-27 | 2017 | 10 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2017/10/27/2017-23348/hours-of-service-of-drivers-application-for-exemption-pipe-line-contractors-association-plca | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2017-10-27/pdf/2017-23348.pdf | Transportation Department; Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration | 492,181 | FMCSA announces its decision to deny the application of the Pipe Line Contractors Association (PLCA) from the requirement that a motor carrier install and require each of its drivers to use an electronic logging device (ELD) to record the driver's... |
