Action
Notice; extension of comment period.
Summary
The FMCSA extends this notice's comment period until September 8, 2001. This is in response to two petitions for an extension of the comment period. The Motor Carrier Safety Improvement Act of 1999 (MCSIA) directs the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) to conduct a study and report to the Congress on the feasibility and merits of requiring Medical Review Officers and employers to report verified positive drug test results for CDL drivers to the State that issued the driver's license. The FMCSA initiates this study on this issue and invites public comments on how the proposed rule will affect prospective regulated parties.
