SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

Under 49 U.S.C. 31136(e) and 31315, 

FMCSA may grant an exemption from 

the Federal Motor Carrier Safety 

Regulations for a 2-year period if it finds 

‘‘such exemption would likely achieve a 

level of safety that is equivalent to or 

greater than the level that would be 

achieved absent such exemption.’’ The 

statute also allows the Agency to renew 

exemptions at the end of the 2-year 

period. The 20 individuals listed in this 

notice have recently requested such an 

exemption from the diabetes prohibition 

in 49 CFR 391.41(b)(3), which applies to 

drivers of CMVs in interstate commerce. 

Accordingly, the Agency will evaluate 

the qualifications of each applicant to 

determine whether granting the 

exemption will achieve the required 

level of safety mandated by the statutes. 

Qualifications of Applicants
