SUMMARY: This notice publishes the FMCSA decision to renew the exemptions from the vision requirement in the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations for 48 individuals. The FMCSA has statutory authority to exempt individuals from vision standards if the exemptions granted will not compromise safety.
