Notice and request for comments

Summary:

In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, FMCSA announces its plan to submit the Information Collection Request (ICR) described below to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for review and approval. The primary purpose of the ICR is to assess the effectiveness of various technologies, programs, and policies on motor carrier safety performance in support of the implementation of the Fixing America's Surface Transportation Act, 2015 (FAST Act) Beyond Compliance requirements.

Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration seeks to survey a select group of motor carrier operational managers whose companies exceed regulatory safety requirements and have enhanced driver fitness measures.  The surveys would be in response to plans for a “Beyond Compliance program” that was mandated by the 2015 FAST Act as a way for FMCSA to identify carriers that exceed regulatory safety requirements with credit or improved Safety Measurement System percentile scores.
