FMCSA Registration System Modernization, 89012 [2023-28362]

Download as PDF 89012 Federal Register / Vol. 88, No. 246 / Tuesday, December 26, 2023 / Notices petitions requesting the FMCSA waive all three determinations preempting California’s MRB rules for drivers of property- and passenger-carrying CMVs subject to FMCSA’s HOS rules and Washington’s MRB rules for propertycarrying CMVs subject to FMCSA’s HOS rules. The State of California has petitioned for waiver of the decisions preempting California’s MRB rules. FMCSA has placed each petition for waiver in the ‘‘Documents’’ section of the appropriate docket.2 Although waiver of a preemption determination under 49 U.S.C. 31141(d) is a legal determination reserved to the judgment of the Agency, FMCSA seeks comments on any issues raised in the above referenced petitions for waiver or otherwise relevant. In addition, FMCSA requests that commenters address the following issues: 1. Whether and to what extent enforcement of a State’s meal and rest break laws with respect to intrastate property-carrying and passengercarrying CMV drivers has impacted the health and safety of drivers. 2. Whether enforcement of State meal and rest break laws as applied to interstate property-carrying or passenger-carrying CMV drivers will exacerbate the existing truck parking shortages and result in more trucks parking on the side of the road and whether any such effect will burden interstate commerce or create additional dangers to drivers and the public; and 3. Whether enforcement of a State’s meal and rest break laws as applied to interstate property-carrying or passenger-carrying CMV drivers will dissuade carriers from operating in that State; and 4. Whether enforcement of a State’s meal and rest break laws as applied to interstate property-carrying or passenger-carrying CMV drivers will weaken or otherwise impact the resiliency of the national supply chain.
