    The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) is planning to renew its Information Collection Request on "Waiver and Exemption Requirements," under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995. This renewal will increase the estimated burden from 97 hours to 119 hours over the next three years, due to an expected rise in waiver and exemption applications. The FMCSA is inviting public comments on the necessity and accuracy of this information collection, as well as suggestions for improving its quality and reducing the burden on applicants. Comments are due by February 4, 2025, and can be submitted through multiple methods, including online and mail.

    Simple Explanation

    The government wants to keep asking for some paperwork when truck drivers ask for special permissions, and they're asking people to say if this is okay or if it can be done better. They're also saying it might take more time for them to review than before.

    The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA), Part of the Department of Transportation, plans to renew an Information Collection Request (ICR) concerning waiver and exemption requirements. This is part of their effort to estimate the time and effort applicants must invest to comply with reporting requirements. A prior notice published on December 6, 2024, did not receive any public comments. The agency is increasing the estimated annual burden hours, citing a rise in expected applications, and invites further comments to assess the necessity and burden of this information collection by May 16, 2025.

    Simple Explanation

    The FMCSA wants to keep doing something they already do, which is to check how much work it is for people when they ask for special permissions to skip some safety rules. They think people will ask more often, so it will take more time. No one said anything about it in the last two months when they asked for opinions.
