Driver work history addresses how
long a CMV driver has been working in
the industry, his/her level of experience,
and his/her type of experience. These
items include questions regarding driver
tenure with his/her current employer
and the number of past employers to
provide information regarding the driver
turnover rate. Items also collect
information about driver training to
understand how drivers learned to
operate their CMVs and the amount of
training that is ongoing in the industry.
Driver work schedule examines the
issue of how much drivers work and the
activities in which they are engaged
when they work (e.g., driving time,
loading time, waiting time). FMCSA is
interested in understanding whether
drivers’ work schedules are tracked and
how they are tracked (e.g., with paper
log books or Electronic On-Board
Recorders (EOBRs). Finally, driver
compensation collects information on
how much drivers earn and how they
are paid (e.g., salary, by hour, or by
mile). This data will allow FMCSA to
estimate an average wage rate, which
can be used to understand the cost
imposed on drivers by current and
proposed regulations.
The goals of this survey are to acquire
general demographic information
regarding the commercial motor vehicle
driving population, and specific
information on driver work history,
work scheduling, and compensation.
Data for this project will be collected via
driver interviews. The results of the
information collection will be
summarized in a report for the FMCSA
and made available to the public.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
Under 49 U.S.C. 31136(e) and 31315,
FMCSA may grant an exemption for a 2year period if it finds ‘‘such exemption
would likely achieve a level of safety
that is equivalent to, or greater than, the
level that would be achieved absent
such exemption.’’ The statutes also
allow the Agency to renew exemptions
at the end of the 2-year period. The 84
individuals listed in this notice have
recently requested an exemption from
the diabetes prohibition in 49 CFR
391.41(b) (3), which applies to drivers of
CMVs in interstate commerce.
Accordingly, the Agency will evaluate
the qualifications of each applicant to
determine whether granting the
exemption will achieve the required
level of safety mandated by the statutes.

Request for Comments
In accordance with 49 U.S.C. 31136(e)
and 31315, FMCSA requests public
comment from all interested persons on
the exemption petitions described in
this notice. We will consider all
comments received before the close of
business on the closing date indicated
in the date section of the Notice.
FMCSA notes that Section 4129 of the
Safe, Accountable, Flexible and
Efficient Transportation Equity Act: A
Legacy for Users (SAFETEA–LU)
requires the Secretary to revise its
diabetes exemption program established
on September 3, 2003 (68 FR 52441).1
The revision must provide for
individual assessment of drivers with
diabetes mellitus, and be consistent
with the criteria described in section
4018 of the Transportation Equity Act
for the 21st Century (49 U.S.C. 31305).
Section 4129 requires: (1) the
elimination of the requirement for three
years of experience operating CMVs
while being treated with insulin; and (2)
the establishment of a specified
minimum period of insulin use to
demonstrate stable control of diabetes
before being allowed to operate a CMV.
In response to section 4129, FMCSA
made immediate revisions to the
diabetes exemption program established
by the September 3, 2003 Notice.
FMCSA discontinued use of the 3-year
driving experience and fulfilled the
requirements of section 4129 while
continuing to ensure that operation of
CMVs by drivers with ITDM will
achieve the requisite level of safety
required of all exemptions granted
under 49 USC. 31136 (e).
Section 4129(d) also directed FMCSA
to ensure that drivers of CMVs with
ITDM are not held to a higher standard
than other drivers, with the exception of
1 Section 4129(a) refers to the 2003 Notice as a
‘‘final rule.’’ However, the 2003 Notice did not issue
a ‘‘final rule’’ but did establish the procedures and
standards for issuing exemptions for drivers with
ITDM.

limited operating, monitoring and
medical requirements that are deemed
medically necessary. FMCSA concluded
that all of the operating, monitoring and
medical requirements set out in the
September 3, 2003 Notice, except as
modified, were in compliance with
section 4129(d). Therefore, all of the
requirements set out in the September 3,
2003 Notice, except as modified by the
Notice in the Federal Register on
November 8, 2005 (70 FR 67777),
remain in effect.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
Under 49 U.S.C. 31136(e) and 31315, FMCSA may grant an exemption
for a 2-year period if it finds ``such exemption would likely achieve a
level of safety that is equivalent to, or greater than, the level that
would be achieved absent such exemption.'' The statutes also allow the
Agency to renew exemptions at the end of the 2-year period. The 84
individuals listed in this notice have recently requested an exemption
from the diabetes prohibition in 49 CFR 391.41(b) (3), which applies to
drivers of CMVs in interstate commerce. Accordingly, the Agency will
evaluate the qualifications of each applicant to determine whether
granting the exemption will achieve the required level of safety
mandated by the statutes.

Request for Comments
In accordance with 49 U.S.C. 31136(e) and 31315, FMCSA requests
public comment from all interested persons on the exemption petitions
described in this notice. We will consider all comments received before
the close of business on the closing date indicated in the date section
of the Notice.
FMCSA notes that Section 4129 of the Safe, Accountable, Flexible
and Efficient Transportation Equity Act: A Legacy for Users (SAFETEA-
LU) requires the Secretary to revise its diabetes exemption program
established on September 3, 2003 (68 FR 52441).\1\ The revision must
provide for individual assessment of drivers with diabetes mellitus,
and be consistent with the criteria described in section 4018 of the
Transportation Equity Act for the 21st Century (49 U.S.C. 31305).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\1\ Section 4129(a) refers to the 2003 Notice as a ``final
rule.'' However, the 2003 Notice did not issue a ``final rule'' but
did establish the procedures and standards for issuing exemptions
for drivers with ITDM.
