SUMMARY: FMCSA previously
announced its decision to renew the
exemptions from the vision requirement
in the Federal Motor Carrier Safety
Regulations for 22 individuals. FMCSA

compromise safety. The Agency has
concluded that granting these

than, the level of safety maintained
without the exemptions for these

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 statute also
allows the Agency to renew exemptions
at the end of the 2-year period. The
comment period ended on May 6, 2009.
Discussion of Comments
FMCSA received no comments in this
proceeding.

alternative dispute resolution
proceedings in the United States to
prevent the intentional or inadvertent
transfer through such proceedings of
