Motor Carrier Safety Regulations; Technical Amendments

AGENCY: Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA), DOT.

ACTION: Final rule.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The FMCSA is amending the Federal Motor Carrier Safety 
Regulations (FMCSRs) to update obsolete references and make certain 
grammatical corrections for clarity. In addition, we are correcting an 
error in the final rule on Brake Performance Requirements for 
Commercial Motor Vehicles published on August 9, 2002 in the Federal 
Register. FMCSA is not making any substantive changes to its 
regulations by these technical amendments.

EFFECTIVE DATE: This final rule is effective October 2, 2002.

PRR), 202-366-2797, U.S. Department of Transportation, Federal Motor 
Carrier Safety Administration, 400 Seventh Street, SW., Washington, DC 
20590. Office hours are from 7:30 a.m. to 5 p.m., e.t., Monday through

Summary of Changes

    Title 49 of the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), chapter III, 
subchapter B, contains the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations 
(FMCSRs) for truck and bus safety. This final rule corrects inaccurate 
references, citations, and technical errors resulting from statutory 
changes in laws governing interstate commerce. It also makes other 
editorial revisions for clarity.
    In the Sec.  360.3(f) table, a filing fee has been added for 
applications involving the merger, transfer, or lease of operating 
rights of motor passenger and property carriers, property brokers, and 
household goods freight forwarders under 49 U.S.C. 10321 and 10926. The 
ICC Termination Act of 1995 (ICCTA) sunsetted the Interstate Commerce 
Commission (ICC) and transferred the ICC's registration and insurance 
functions to the Secretary of Transportation, who delegated these 
functions to the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) in 1996 and 
redelegated them to FMCSA in 2000. Filing fees related to these 
functions were initially assessed under ICC regulations codified in 49 
CFR part 1002. In February 1999, FHWA adopted its own filing fee and 
fee collection regulations in a new part 360 (64 FR 7134, February 12, 
1999). The preamble to this rule stated that ``(i)n this rulemaking 
proceeding the FHWA is adopting the ICC's fee regulations related to 
the recently transferred motor carrier functions without any 
substantive changes.'' However, the rule inadvertently omitted the fee 
for transfers of operating authority codified at 49 CFR 1002.2(f)(25). 
Both FHWA and FMCSA have assessed this fee since 1996. Therefore, 
restoring the transfer fee to the fee table will impose no new burdens 
on the public.
    We are also amending part 360 by revising Sec.  360.3(g)(2) to 
clarify that a credit card may be required in situations involving 
dishonored checks.
    In part 365, references to water carriers have been removed because 
the

[[Page 61819]]

ICCTA did not transfer to the Secretary authority to register water 
carriers. The ICCTA also required the Secretary to register all freight 
forwarders, not just household goods freight forwarders. We have 
changed part 365 to reflect that fact. We have also changed Sec.  
365.105(b) to add a reference to FMCSA's do-it-yourself Web site as a 
means of obtaining OP-1 application forms.
    In Sec.  387.39, we have modified two motor carrier financial 
responsibility forms to correct numerous obsolete references. These 
forms have been approved by the Office of Management and Budget under 
control number 2126-0008. Their current expiration date is June 30, 
2003.
    In Sec.  390.27, the Virgin Islands has been included in the table. 
In addition, two new notes have been added to direct Canadian and 
Mexican carriers where to obtain information.
    In Sec.  391.41(a), a footnote has been added acknowledging a 
reciprocity agreement between the United States and Canada that 
provides for a valid Canadian commercial driver's license issued by a 
Canadian Province or Territory to be proof of medical fitness to drive 
commercial motor vehicles (CMVs) in the United States, except in 
certain limited circumstances.
    Finally, a correction has been made to a final rule published on 
August 9, 2002 (67 FR 51770), pertaining to brake performance 
requirements for CMVs.

Administrative Procedure Act

    This final rule was issued without using the notice and comment 
procedures contained at 5 U.S.C. 553(b), because these technical 
amendments merely correct and clarify existing regulations. They do not 
impose any new requirements on the regulated industry and are not 
substantive changes. For the same reasons, good cause exists under 5 
U.S.C. 553(d) to dispense with the 30-day delay in the effective date 
requirement and the FMCSA is making the rule effective upon publication 
in the Federal Register.

Executive Order 12866 (Regulatory Planning and Review) and DOT 
Regulatory Policies and Procedures

    The FMCSA has determined that this action is not a significant 
regulatory action under Executive Order 12866 or within the meaning of 
Department of Transportation regulatory policies and procedures. 
Therefore, this document was not reviewed by the Office of Management 
and Budget.

Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601-612)

    These technical amendments will not have an economically 
significant effect on a substantial number of small entities (i.e., 
motor carriers), and therefore an economic analysis of this rule is not 
required.

Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (2 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.)

    This rule does not impose a Federal mandate resulting in increased 
expenditures either by State, local, and tribal governments, in the 
aggregate, or by the private sector, of $100 million or more (as 
adjusted for inflation) in any one year; nor does it significantly or 
uniquely affect small governments.

Executive Order 12988 (Civil Justice Reform)

    This action meets applicable standards in section 3 of Executive 
Order 12988 to minimize litigation, eliminate ambiguity, and reduce 
burden.

Executive Order 13045 (Protection of Children From Environmental Health 
Risks and Safety Risks)

    This rule is not an economically significant rule and does not 
concern an environmental risk to health or safety that may 
disproportionately affect children under Executive Order 13045.

Executive Order 12630 (Taking of Private Property)

    This rule will not effect a taking of private property or otherwise 
have taking implications as specified in Executive Order 12630, 
governmental Actions and Interference with Constitutionally Protected 
Property Rights.

Executive Order 13132 (Federalism)

    This final rule will not have federalism implications, as defined 
in Executive Order 13132, to warrant the preparation of a Federalism 
Assessment. It does not have substantial direct effects on the States, 
on the relationship between the national government and the States, or 
on the distribution of power and responsibilities among the various 
levels of governments. Nothing in this document directly preempts any 
State law or regulations.

Executive Order 12372 (Intergovernmental Review)

    Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance Program Number 20.217, Motor 
Carrier Safety. The regulations implementing Executive Order 12372 
regarding intergovernmental consultation of Federal program and 
activities do not apply to this action.

Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. chapter 35)

    This final rule does not contain any information collections that 
are subject to review by the Office of Management and Budget under the 
Paperwork Reduction Act.

National Environmental Policy Act

    The FMCSA has analyzed this action for the purpose of the National 
Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (42 U.S.C. 4321 et seq.) and has 
determined that this action does not have any effect on the quality of 
the environment.

Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act

    This final rule is exempt from congressional review under 5 U.S.C. 
801, because these amendments merely update obsolete references and 
make minor editorial corrections to existing regulations where 
applicable.
