| 2017-23403 | Hours of Service of Drivers: Application for Exemption; Western Equipment Dealers Association (WEDA) | Proposed Rule | FMCSA announces that the Western Equipment Dealers Association (WEDA) has requested an exemption on behalf of several other organizations and their membership from the requirement that no later than December 18, 2017, a motor carrier require each of its drivers to use an electronic logging device (ELD) to record the driver's hours-of- service (HOS). WEDA states that equipment dealer operations in agriculture constitute unique circumstances that warrant the requested exemption, and not granting it will pose an undue burden on equipment dealers and their customers without any measurable safety benefit. In its application, WEDA seeks a five-year, renewable exemption from the ELD requirements which, the organization states, if granted will achieve a level of safety equivalent to, or greater than, the level that would be achieved absent the proposed exemption. FMCSA requests public comment on WEDA's application for exemption. | 2017-10-27 | 2017 | 10 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2017/10/27/2017-23403/hours-of-service-of-drivers-application-for-exemption-western-equipment-dealers-association-weda | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2017-10-27/pdf/2017-23403.pdf | Transportation Department; Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration | 492,181 | FMCSA announces that the Western Equipment Dealers Association (WEDA) has requested an exemption on behalf of several other organizations and their membership from the requirement that no later than December 18, 2017, a motor carrier require each of... |
