Amendments to the Federal Motor
Carrier Safety Regulations; Correction
SUMMARY:
The National Highway System
Designation Act of 1995, Public Law
104–59, sec. 345, 109 Stat. 568. 613
(Nov. 28, 1995) (the Act), provided the
initial exception for drivers transporting
agricultural commodities or farm
supplies for agricultural purposes. The
Act limited the exception to a 100 airmile radius from the source of the
commodities or distribution point for
the farm supplies and during the
planting and harvesting seasons as
determined by the applicable State.
The Safe, Accountable, Flexible,
Efficient Transportation Act: A Legacy
for Users (SAFETEA–LU) revised this
provision, redesignated it as new
section 229 of Title II of the Motor
Carrier Safety Improvement Act of 1999,
and defined the terms ‘‘agricultural
commodity’’ and ‘‘farm supplies for
agricultural purposes.’’ Public Law 109–
59, sections 4115 and 4130, 119 Stat.
1144, 1726, 1743 (Aug. 10, 2005). These
terms are now defined in 49 CFR 395.2.
Most recently, the statute was
amended by section 32101(d) of the
Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st
Century Act (MAP–21), Public Law
112–141, 126 Stat. 405, 778 (July 6,
2012). This provision revised the
description of the exception’s scope and
extended the applicable distance from
100 air-miles to 150 air-miles from the
source.

Federal Motor Carrier Safety
Administration (FMCSA), DOT
ACTION: Announcement of regulatory
guidance
FMCSA announces regulatory
guidance to clarify the applicability of
the ‘‘Agricultural commodity’’
exception in the ‘‘Hours of Service
(HOS) of Drivers’’ regulations. This
regulatory guidance clarifies the
exception with regard to: drivers
operating unladen vehicles traveling
either to pick up an agricultural
commodity or returning from a delivery
point; drivers engaged in trips beyond
150 air-miles from the source of the
agricultural commodity; determining
the ‘‘source’’ of agricultural
commodities under the exemptions; and
how the exception applies when
agricultural commodities are loaded at
multiple sources during a trip. This
regulatory guidance is issued to ensure
consistent understanding and
application of the exception by motor
carriers and State officials enforcing
HOS rules identical to or compatible
with FMCSA’s requirements.
DATES: This guidance is applicable on
June 7, 2018 and expires June 7, 2023.

‘‘agricultural commodities,’’ 49 CFR
395.1(k)(1). It does not address ‘‘farm
supplies for agricultural purposes’’
