Summary
In accordance with the requirements in section 3506(c)(2)(A) of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, this notice announces the intention of the FMCSA to request the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) to approve a new information collection to query unionized truck drivers who operate commercial motor vehicles (CMVs) on overnight runs. The agency intends to collect information from these truck drivers on such issues as driver physical condition, amount of sleep, use of naps, fatigue coping strategies, hours on duty, hours driving, and nature of job. In addition, a sample of drivers will wear actigraphy watches to monitor and obtain objective measures of their sleep/wake time.
