The State may assist FHWA with formal
consultations, with consent of a tribe,

Commercial Driver’s License: Missouri
Department of Revenue (DOR);
Application for Exemption
Federal Motor Carrier Safety
Administration (FMCSA), DOT.
ACTION: Notice of application for
exemption; request for comments.
AGENCY:
FMCSA announces that it has
received an application from the
Missouri DOR for a limited exemption
from the Agency’s commercial driver’s
license (CDL) regulations. These
regulations allow a State to waive the
CDL skills test for applicants regularly
employed or previously employed
within the last 90 days in a military
position requiring operation of a
commercial motor vehicle (CMV). The
Missouri DOR proposes that it be
allowed to extend the 90-day timeline to
one year following the driver’s
separation from military service. The
Missouri DOR believes the 90-day

of the waiver for many of the qualified
discharged veterans reentering and
settling into civilian life. FMCSA
requests public comment on this
application for exemption. In addition,
because the issues concerning the
Missouri request could be applicable in
each of the States, FMCSA requests
public comment whether the
exemption, if granted, should cover all
State Driver’s Licensing Agencies
(SDLAs).
