Action
Notice of final disposition.
Summary
The FMCSA announces its decision to exempt Mr. Jerry W. Parker from the vision requirement in the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations (FMCSRs). The FMCSA is deferring its decision regarding Mr. Parker's qualification under the Federal alternative physical qualification standards for loss of limbs until he obtains a prosthetic device, becomes proficient in using the device, and completes the Skill Performance Evaluation (SPE) certification process. Although Mr. Parker is exempted from the vision requirements, he may not operate a commercial vehicle in interstate commerce until he meets the physical qualification standard for the loss of limbs, and this agency issues a SPE certificate.
