Proposed Collection: Information Collected Through Investigative Inquiry Forms, 63309-63310 [2013-24815]

Download as PDF emcdonald on DSK67QTVN1PROD with NOTICES Federal Register / Vol. 78, No. 205 / Wednesday, October 23, 2013 / Notices driving in congested urban areas exposes the driver to more pedestrian and vehicular traffic than exists on interstate highways. Faster reaction to traffic and traffic signals is generally required because distances between them are more compact. These conditions tax visual capacity and driver response just as intensely as interstate driving conditions. The veteran drivers in this proceeding have operated CMVs safely under those conditions for at least 3 years, most for much longer. Their experience and driving records lead us to believe that each applicant is capable of operating in interstate commerce as safely as he/she has been performing in intrastate commerce. Consequently, FMCSA finds that exempting these applicants from the vision requirement in 49 CFR 391.41(b)(10) is likely to achieve a level of safety equal to that existing without the exemption. For this reason, the Agency is granting the exemptions for the 2-year period allowed by 49 U.S.C. 31136(e) and 31315 to the 25 applicants listed in the notice of August 6, 2013 (78 FR 47818). We recognize that the vision of an applicant may change and affect his/her ability to operate a CMV as safely as in the past. As a condition of the exemption, therefore, FMCSA will impose requirements on the 25 individuals consistent with the grandfathering provisions applied to drivers who participated in the Agency’s vision waiver program. Those requirements are found at 49 CFR 391.64(b) and include the following: (1) That each individual be physically examined every year (a) by an ophthalmologist or optometrist who attests that the vision in the better eye continues to meet the requirement in 49 CFR 391.41(b)(10) and (b) by a medical examiner who attests that the individual is otherwise physically qualified under 49 CFR 391.41; (2) that each individual provide a copy of the ophthalmologist’s or optometrist’s report to the medical examiner at the time of the annual medical examination; and (3) that each individual provide a copy of the annual medical certification to the employer for retention in the driver’s qualification file, or keep a copy in his/her driver’s qualification file if he/she is selfemployed. The driver must have a copy of the certification when driving, for presentation to a duly authorized Federal, State, or local enforcement official. Discussion of Comments FMCSA received eight comments in this proceeding. The comments are considered and discussed below. VerDate Mar<15>2010 18:13 Oct 22, 2013 Jkt 232001 The eight comments received were all in support of Elmer L. Roberson receiving a vision exemption. Conclusion Based upon its evaluation of the 25 exemption applications, FMCSA exempts Larry E. Blakely (GA), William Bucaria, Jr. (FL), Kevan M. Burke (PA), Thomas F. Caithamer (IL), Jaime M. Daigle (MA), James E. Goodman (AL), Britt A. Green (ND), Craig C. Harris (NH), Jesus J. Huerta (NV), Arlene S. Kent (NH), Willie L. Murphy (IN), Chad J. Nolan (OH), Joseph J. Pudlik (IL), Freddie G. Reed (MS), Elmer L. Roberson (OK), Anthony R. Santomango (ME), Daniel W. Schafer (PA), Keith A. Sommers (IN), James A. Spell (MD), Robert L. Spencer (CT), Scott C. Star (NJ), Brain S. Stockwell (IL), Jeffrey R. Swett (SC), Brian C. Tate (VA), and Aaron M. Vernon (OH) from the vision requirement in 49 CFR 391.41(b)(10), subject to the requirements cited above (49 CFR 391.64(b)). In accordance with 49 U.S.C. 31136(e) and 31315, each exemption will be valid for 2 years unless revoked earlier by FMCSA. The exemption will be revoked if: (1) The person fails to comply with the terms and conditions of the exemption; (2) the exemption has resulted in a lower level of safety than was maintained before it was granted; or (3) continuation of the exemption would not be consistent with the goals and objectives of 49 U.S.C. 31136 and 31315. If the exemption is still effective at the end of the 2-year period, the person may apply to FMCSA for a renewal under procedures in effect at that time. Issued on: October 8, 2013. Larry W.
