statutory level of safety should
immediately notify FMCSA. The
Agency will evaluate any adverse
evidence submitted and, if safety is
being compromised or if continuation of
the exemption would not be consistent
with the goals and objectives of 49
U.S.C. 31136(e) and 31315, FMCSA will
take immediate steps to revoke the
exemption of a driver. FMCSA

IV. Basis for Renewing Exemptions
Under 49 U.S.C. 31315(b)(1), an
exemption may be granted for no longer
than two years from its approval date
and may be renewed upon application.
In accordance with 49 U.S.C. 31136(e)
and 31315, each of the 20 applicants has
satisfied the entry conditions for
obtaining an exemption from the
hearing requirement (80 FR 18924; 80
FR 18926; 80 FR 22766; 80 FR 22768;
80 FR 60747). The Commercial Driver’s
License Information System (CDLIS)
and Motor Carrier Management
Informatiom System (MCMIS) are
searched for crash and violation data.
For non-CDL holders, the Agency
reviews the driving records from the
State Driver’s Licensing Agency (SDLA).
These factors provide an adequate basis
for predicting each driver’s ability to
continue to drive safely in interstate
commerce.
V. Exemption Decision
The 20 drivers in this notice remain
in good standing with the Agency and
have not exhibited any medical issues
that would compromise their ability to
safely operate a CMV during the
previous 2-year exemption period.
FMCSA has concluded that renewing
the exemptions for each of these
applicants is likely to achieve a level of
safety equal to that existing without the
exemption. Therefore, FMCSA has
decided to renew each exemption for a
two-year period. They are:
Joshua Arango (FL), Michael Beebe (NJ),
Andrew Deuschle (TX), David
Garland (ME), Daniel Grossinger
(MD), Roman Landa (CA), Claire
Mitcham (TX), Quinton Murphy (WI),
Michael Paasch (NE), Jeffrey
Pagenkopf (MN), Kelly Pulvermacher
(WI), Alfredo Ramirez (TX), Fernando
Ramirez-Savon (NM), Julie Ramirez
(TX), Ralph Reno (PA), Adalberto
Rodriguez (NY), Andrey Shevchenko
(MN), William Symonds (IL), Hayden
Teesdale (TX), Joshua Weaver (GA).
VI. Conditions and Requirements
The exemptions are extended subject
to the following conditions: (1) Each
VerDate Sep<11>2014
20:16 Jul 29, 2016
Jkt 238001
driver must report any crashes or
accidents as defined in 49 CFR 390.5;
and (2) report all citations and
convictions for disqualifying offenses
under 49 CFR part 383 and 49 CFR 391
to FMCSA. In addition, the driver must
also have a copy of the exemption when
driving, for presentation to a duly
authorized Federal, State, or local
enforcement officials. The driver is
prohibited from operating a motorcoach
or bus with passengers in interstate
commerce. The exemption does not
exempt the individual from meeting the
applicable CDL testing requirements.
Each exemption will be valid for two
years unless rescinded earlier by
FMCSA. The exemption will be
rescinded 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(e) and
31315.
VII. Conclusion
Based upon its evaluation of the 20
exemption applications, FMCSA renews
the exemptions of the aforementioned
drivers from the hearing requirement in
49 CFR 391.41(b)(11). In accordance
with 49 U.S.C. 31136(e) and 31315, each
exemption will be valid for 2 years
unless revoked earlier by FMCSA.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
Under 49 U.S.C. 31136(e) and 31315,
FMCSA may grant an exemption from
the Federal Motor Carrier Safety
Regulations (FMCSRs) 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 statute also
allows the Agency to renew exemptions
at the end of the 2-year period. The 33
individuals listed in this notice have
recently requested such an exemption
from the hearing requirement in 49 CFR
391.41(b) (11), 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 statute.
The physical qualification standard
for drivers regarding hearing found in
49 CFR 391.41(b)(11) states that a
person is physically qualified to drive a
CMV if that person
First perceives a forced whispered voice in
the better ear at not less than 5 feet with or
without the use of a hearing aid or, if tested
by use of an audiometric device, does not
have an average hearing loss in the better ear
greater than 40 decibels at 500 Hz, 1,000 Hz,
and 2,000 Hz with or without a hearing aid
when the audiometric device is calibrated to
American National Standard (formerly ASA
Standard) Z24.5—1951.
This standard was adopted in 1970
and was revised in 1971 to allow drivers
to be qualified under this standard
while wearing a hearing aid, 35 FR
6458, 6463 (April 22, 1970) and 36 FR
12857 (July 3, 1971).

AGENCY:
FMCSA announces its denial

Federal vision standard applicable to
interstate truck and bus drivers and the
reasons for the denials. FMCSA has
statutory authority to exempt
individuals from the vision requirement
if the exemptions granted will not

exemptions does not provide a level of
safety that will be equivalent to, or
greater than, the level of safety
maintained without the exemptions for

from the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations (FMCSRs) for a 2-year
period if it finds ``such exemption would likely achieve a level of
