Notice of applications for exemptions; request for comments.
Summary
FMCSA announces receipt of applications from four individuals for an exemption from the prohibition against persons with an implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) in the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations (FMCSRs), due to syncope or likelihood of causing any loss of ability to operate a commercial motor vehicle (CMV) safely. FMCSA requests public comments on these applications for an exemption. If granted, the exemption would enable these individuals with ICDs to operate CMVs in interstate commerce.
