and Dodge Counties, Nebraska, is being
rescinded. The NOI was published in
the Federal Register on August 29,
2005. This rescission is based on the
desire of the Nebraska Department of
Roads to fund the project entirely with
newly acquired state funds. NDOR plans
to have the improvements completed
with state funds in the FY 2016–2019
timeframe.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On August
29, 2005, FHWA and NDOR announced
their intent to prepare an EIS pursuant
to 40 CFR 1508.22 for the proposed
improvements along a 26-mile segment
of US–30, from Schuyler, Nebraska to
Fremont, Nebraska. In an effort to
develop a preliminary purpose and need
statement and a reasonable range of
alternatives, the NDOR convened a local
public interest advisory group in 2005,
which was comprised of residents,
stakeholders, and local officials from the
study area. In December 2006, the
advisory group prepared a majority and
a minority recommendation for a locally
preferred solution, along with other
reasonable alternatives. This
recommendation was to be considered
in the development of the range of
alternatives to be studied in the EIS.
After completion of the advisory group’s
work, NDOR reviewed the Statewide
Transportation Improvement Program
(STIP) and determined that funding for
construction of the project was not
likely to be available for the foreseeable
future; therefore, the environmental
process was halted until a financial plan
could be identified. In 2009, the United
States Army Corps of Engineers
(USACE) began public meetings related
to a Section 205 study of flood
protection measures for the City of
Fremont that included alternatives in
the US–30 corridor. Although funding
for construction of US–30
improvements was still uncertain,
NDOR and FHWA determined that it
would be beneficial for the US–30
environmental process to resume,
coordinated with the USACE
improvements. In 2011, NDOR was
beginning to draft a Coordination Plan
in accordance with Section 6002 of
SAFETEA–LU to outline the process of
agency and public participation during
the environmental review process, when
the Nebraska State Legislature enacted
LB84, legislation which will divert 1⁄4
cent of the sales tax revenue for road
construction projects for the next 20

years, beginning in 2013. NDOR has
requested to rescind the Notice of Intent
to Prepare an EIS due to the enactment
of LB84 and the resulting availability of
state funds to deliver this project.
Further, NDOR will continue to
coordinate closely with appropriate
agencies, seek public involvement, and
undergo environmental evaluations
pursuant to their State environmental
process. Comments or questions
concerning the rescission of this
proposed action and the EIS should be
directed to the FHWA at the address
provided above.

Federal Motor Carrier Safety
Administration (FMCSA), DOT.
ACTION: Notice of application for
exemption; request for comments.
AGENCY:
FMCSA announces that
Daimler Trucks North America
(Daimler) has applied for two drivers of
commercial motor vehicles (CMVs) to be
exempt from the Federal requirement to
hold a commercial driver’s license
(CDL) issued by one of the States.
Daimler requests that the exemption
cover two German project engineers
who will test-drive CMVs for Daimler
within the United States. Daimler states
the exemption is needed to meet future
vehicle safety and environmental
regulatory requirements and to promote
the development of technology
advancements in vehicle safety systems
and emissions reductions. These
Daimler drivers hold valid German
CDLs and need to be able to test-drive
Daimler vehicles on U.S. roads to better
understand product requirements for
these systems in ‘‘real world’’
environments in the U.S. market, and
verify results. Daimler believes the
requirements for a German CDL are such
that they ensure that the same level of
safety is met or exceeded as if these
drivers had U.S. state-issued CDLs.
