Action
Advance notice of proposed rulemaking (ANPRM); request for comments.
Summary
The FMCSA requests comments on whether to extend the applicability of the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations (FMCSRs) to all interstate school transportation operations (thus excluding home-to-school or school-to-home transportation) by local governmentally-operated educational agencies. This action responds to section 4024 of the Transportation Equity Act for the 21st Century (TEA-21) which directs the FMCSA to determine whether the FMSCRs should apply to these operations. The FMCSA requests comments, data, and information to assist the agency in making the determination.
