daltland on DSKBBV9HB2PROD with NOTICES
towaway operations, which are
excluded from the ELD mandate. In
these instances, neither the carriers nor
the drivers own the vehicles being
driven, nor are they authorized to make
any modifications to those vehicles.
Similarly, in both cases, the vehicles at
issue may only be operated by the
carrier’s drivers for a single trip.
The application for exemption is in
the docket for this notice.
IV. Public Comments
On April 21, 2017, FMCSA published
notice of the G4S application and
requested public comment (82 FR
18820). The Agency received three
comments, and all opposed the granting
of the G4S exemption request. Groups
filing in opposition were the Advocates
for Highway and Auto Safety
(Advocates), the Owner-Operator
Independent Driver’s Association
(OOIDA), and the Commercial Vehicle
Safety Alliance (CVSA). Issues raised by
these commenters in opposition to the
exemption request are as follows.
(1) The G4S application does not meet
the statutory and regulatory
requirements for the exemption. It fails
to consider practical alternatives, justify
the need for exemption, provide an
analysis of the safety impacts the
requested exemption may cause, and
provide information on the specific
countermeasures to be undertaken to
ensure that the exemption will achieve
an equivalent or greater level of safety
than would be achieved absent the
exemption.
(2) G4S cites technical concerns
regarding interoperability of ELDs and
the use of different vehicles as reasons
why their drivers should be exempted
from the ELD mandate. While these
points are legitimate, they are not
limited to this carrier. Carriers of all
sizes may encounter these same
interoperability problems as drivers
operate multiple ELD platforms with
varying methods of data transfer.
(3) Confusion and inconsistencies,
such as patchwork adoption of the ELD
requirement because of exemptions,
create more work for the enforcement
community and industry alike. These
inconsistencies also have a direct
impact on data quality, an especially
important consideration for the accurate
tracking of HOS compliance.
All comments are available for review
in the docket for this notice.
V. FMCSA Decision
When FMCSA published the final
rule mandating ELDs, it relied upon
research indicating that the rule
improves commercial motor vehicle
(CMV) safety by improving compliance

with the hours-of-service rules. The rule
also reduces the overall paperwork
burden for both motor carriers and
drivers.
In its application, G4S provides no
analysis of the safety performance of
drivers who would operate using paper
records of duty status under the
exemption. G4S compares its request to
the ELD regulatory exception for
driveaway-towaway vehicles, but
provides no analysis of how the risk of
fatigue and crashes when operating an
empty vehicle in a driveaway-towaway
operation would be equivalent to the
risk posed by operating a passengercarrying vehicle.
The G4S application does not
consider practical alternatives or
provide an analysis of the safety impacts
the requested exemption may cause. It
also does not provide countermeasures
to be undertaken to ensure that the
exemption would likely achieve a level
of safety equivalent to, or greater than,
the level that would be achieved by the
current regulation.
For these reasons, FMCSA denied the
request for exemption by letter dated
January 5, 2018.
Issued on: February 20, 2018.
