Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration<\/a> submitted the rule to the White House’s Office of Management and Budget (OMB) on August 7th 2013 with a projected publication date of November 18th 2013.<\/p>\nIn the Department of Tranportation’s last report which was issued March 11th 2014, projects the rule will clear OMB on March 28th. The publication of the Supplemental Notice of Proposed Rulemaking projected for April 9th will follow. The proposal will then allow 60 days for public comment ending on the 9th of June.<\/p>\n

The Department of Transportation still also projects its driver coercion rule to be published on April 23rd 2014, The rule would create a requirement that the agency \u201cconsider whether coercion of drivers\u201d by shippers, receivers, carriers or brokers \u201cis a concern when developing a rule.\u201d It too would have a 60-day comment period.<\/p>\n
FMCSA\u2019s Carrier Safety Fitness Determination rule proposal is, as per the report, still set to still be published August 4th 2014. The rule would change the agency\u2019s data gathering process in regards to the way it calculates a carrier\u2019s Safety Fitness Determination score. After the rule passes, if it does, the agency will use data from crashes, roadside inspections, violation history and investigations, nearly an identical data set used in calculating a Safety Measurement Scores in the agency\u2019s Compliance, Safety, Accountability program.<\/p>\n
