General Notice: Parts and Accessories Necessary for Safe Operation; Application for an Exemption From PINOVA


Federal Register: 70FR 52467
Docket #: FMCSA-2005-21685
(What is this?)
 
Publication Date: 9/2/2005
Comment By Date: 10/3/2005

Action:

Notice of application for exemption; request for comments

Summary:

The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) requests public comment on an application for an exemption received from PINOVA on behalf of 29 motor carriers that transport short lightered wood logs and stumps from various points in North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Mississippi, and Alabama to PINOVA's plant in Brunswick, Georgia. PINOVA seeks the exemption because it believes compliance with the commodity-specific rule for securing logs and stumps prevents the company from using more efficient and effective cargo securement methods. PINOVA believes the alternative cargo securement method used by its motor carriers would maintain a level of safety that is equivalent to, or greater than, the level of safety achieved without the exemption.
