qualified under 49 CFR 391.41; (2) that 

each individual provides a copy of the 

ophthalmologist’s or optometrist’s 

report to the medical examiner at the 

time of the annual medical examination; 

and (3) that each individual provide a 

copy of the annual medical certification 

to the employer for retention in the 

driver’s qualification file and retains a 

copy of the certification on his/her 

person while driving for presentation to 

a duly authorized Federal, State, or local 

enforcement official. Each exemption 

will be valid for two years unless 

rescinded earlier by FMCSA. The 

exemption will be rescinded if: (1) The 

person fails to comply with the terms 

and conditions of the exemption; (2) the 

exemption has resulted in a lower level 

of safety than was maintained before it 

was granted; or (3) continuation of the 

exemption would not be consistent with 

the goals and objectives of 49 U.S.C. 

31136(e) and 31315. 

III. Basis for Renewing Exemptions 

Under 49 U.S.C. 31315(b)(1), an 

exemption may be granted for no longer 

than two years from its approval date 

and may be renewed upon application 

for additional two year periods. In 

accordance with 49 U.S.C. 31136(e) and 

31315, each of the 20 applicants has 

satisfied the entry conditions for 

obtaining an exemption from the vision 

requirements (63 FR 66226; 64 FR 

16517; 65 FR 20245; 65 FR 57230; 66 FR 

17994; 67 FR 57266; 68 FR 15037; 69 FR 

52471; 69 FR 64806; 70 FR 2705; 70 FR 

14747; 71 FR 55820; 72 FR 5489; 72 FR 

12665; 74 FR 6207; 74 FR 6211; 74 FR 

9329; 75 FR 77492; 76 FR 1493; 76 FR 

5425; 76 FR 7894; 76 FR 8809; 76 FR 

9856; 76 FR 9865; 76 FR 12408; 76 FR 

15360; 76 FR 20076; 76 FR 20078; 77 FR 

74731; 78 FR 800; 78 FR 12811; 78 FR 

12822; 78 FR 16762). Each of these 20 

applicants has requested renewal of the 

exemption and has submitted evidence 

showing that the vision in the better eye 

continues to meet the requirement 

specified at 49 CFR 391.41(b)(10) and 

that the vision impairment is stable. In 

addition, a review of each record of 

safety while driving with the respective 

vision deficiencies over the past two 

years indicates each applicant continues 

to meet the vision exemption 

requirements. 

These factors provide an adequate 

basis for predicting each driver’s ability 

to continue to drive safely in interstate 

commerce. Therefore, FMCSA 

concludes that extending the exemption 

for each renewal applicant for a period 

of two years is likely to achieve a level 

of safety equal to that existing without 

the exemption.
