General Notice: Pilot Project on NAFTA Trucking Provisions


Federal Register: 78FR 11728
Docket #: FMCSA–2011-0097
(What is this?)
 
Publication Date: 2/19/2013

Action:

Notice.

Summary:

On September 12, 2011, FMCSA announced and requested public comment on data and information concerning the Pre- Authorization Safety Audit (PASA) for Grupo Behr de Baja California SA de CV (Grupo Behr), USDOT# 861744, a motor carrier that applied to participate in the Agency’s long-haul pilot program. That action was required by the ‘‘U.S. Troop Readiness, Veterans’ Care, Katrina Recovery, and Iraq Accountability Appropriations Act, 2007’’ and all subsequent appropriations. While Grupo Behr successfully completed the PASA process, commenters raised concerns about the company’s safety record. In addition, during the Agency’s safety vetting process, an operating authority violation was discovered. As a result, the Agency placed Grupo Behr’s application on hold. The purpose of this notice is to respond to the comments received in response to the September 12, 2011, notice, and to explain the enforcement action that the Agency took as a result of the operating authority violation. In addition, this notice advises that the Agency will now issue provisional authority to Grupo Behr for participation in the long-haul pilot program.
