Fifth Hours of Service Listening Session Announced


BY :



Wednesday, March 03, 2010

FMCSA has announced that it will hold a fifth public listening session (in addition to the four sessions held in January 2010) to solicit comments and information on potential hours-of-service (HOS) regulations. Specifically, the Agency wants to know what factors, issues, and data it should be aware of as it prepares to issue a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) on HOS requirements for property-carrying commercial motor vehicle (CMV) drivers. This session will be held in the Louisville, Kentucky area in conjunction with the Mid-America Trucking Show. The listening session will allow interested persons to present comments, views, and relevant research on revisions FMCSA should consider in its forthcoming rulemaking. All comments will be transcribed and placed in the rulemaking docket for the FMCSA's consideration.

This listening session will be held on Friday, March 26, 2010, in Louisville, Kentucky. It will begin at 10 a.m. local time and end at 6 p.m., or earlier, if all participants wishing to express their views have done so.

The listening session will be held at the Mid-America Trucking Show at the Kentucky Exposition Center, South Wing Room B101, 937 Phillips Lane, Louisville, Kentucky 40209-1331. The Kentucky Exposition Center may be contacted at (502) 367-5000 for directions. Each person attending may attend the trucking show and the listening session free of charge, if they pre-register online with the Mid-America Trucking Show organizer at http://truckingshow.com/attendee/attendee-registration.

Attendees pre-registering must print out their confirmation page after registering and present it at the Kentucky Exposition Center door to be admitted free. Otherwise, admission to the trucking show on March 26 will be $5.00.

Message From President - January 2011
As I prepared to write my first article for the NJMTA membership as the acting President, my thoughts are focused on the recent tragedy that occurred in Arizona where a Congressman was seriously wounded and 6 others murdered at a political rally. I find myself asking just what is happening to our country.
