Federal Register Description/Summary

The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA), a modal administration within the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT), announces the availability of its Guidance for the use of binding arbitration in civil penalty forfeiture proceedings in which the only issues remaining to be resolved are the amount of the civil penalty owed and the length of time in which to pay it. FMCSA will not agree to arbitrate maximum civil penalty cases issued pursuant to section 222 of the Motor Carrier Safety Improvement Act of 1999, or any cases that require interpretation of the regulations or analysis of important policy issues. The Guidance is located on the Internet at http://www.dms.dot.gov, under docket number FMCSA-2003-14794.
