Notice of Procedural Changes to the Performance and Registration Information Systems Management (PRISM) Program

Notice; extension of effective date.

FMCSA extends until September 1, 2012, the effective date for the procedural change to eliminate use of the "registrant-only" USDOT Number as part of the PRISM program. In an August 9, 2010, Federal Register notice, the Agency initially set September 1, 2011, as the effective date of the change. The extension will allow the Agency to provide additional implementation guidance based on feedback and information received since the August 9, 2010, notice of procedural change and will allow States and other stakeholders to make necessary changes to their systems and processes pursuant to this additional guidance.
