Certification of Safety Auditors, Safety Investigators, and Safety Inspectors; Delay of Effective Date

Interim final rule; delay of effective date.

The FMCSA delays for 30 days the effective date of the interim final rule titled "Certification of Safety Auditors, Safety Investigators, and Safety Inspectors," published in the Federal Register on March 19, 2002 at 67 FR 12776. That rule establishes procedures to certify and maintain certification for auditors and investigators. It also requires certification for State or local government Motor Carrier Safety Assistance Program (MCSAP) employees performing driver/vehicle roadside inspections. The FMCSA needs more time to review all of the comments received on this rulemaking.
