FHWA plans to conduct the survey on 

a voluntary-response basis, utilizing an 

electronic survey platform. This is 

planned as a one-time information 

collection, and FHWA estimates that the 

survey will take approximately one hour 

to complete. The survey will consist of 

both multiple-choice and short-answer 

question formats. 

Respondents: 52 State DOTs. 

Frequency: Once. 

Estimated Average Burden per 

Response: Approximately 60 minutes 

per respondent. 

Estimated Total Annual Burden 

Hours: Approximately 52 hours. 

Public Comments Invited: You are 

asked to comment on any aspect of this 

information collection, including: (1) 

Whether the proposed collection is 

necessary for the FHWA’s performance; 

(2) the accuracy of the estimated 

burdens; (3) ways for the FHWA to 

enhance the quality, usefulness, and 

clarity of the collected information; and 

(4) ways that the burden could be 

minimized, including the use of 

electronic technology, without reducing 

the quality of the collected information. 

The agency will summarize and/or 

include your comments in the request

DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION 

Federal Motor Carrier Safety 

Administration 

[Docket No. FMCSA–2010–0177] 

Parts and Accessories Necessary for 

Safe Operation; Exemption Renewal 

for the Flatbed Carrier Safety Group 

AGENCY: Federal Motor Carrier Safety 

Administration (FMCSA), DOT. 

ACTION: Notice of renewal of exemption; 

request for comments. 

SUMMARY: FMCSA renews the Flatbed 

Carrier Safety Group’s (FCSG) 

exemption which allows the securement 

of metal coils on a flatbed vehicle, in a 

sided vehicle, or in an intermodal 

container loaded with eyes crosswise, 

grouped in rows, in which the coils are 

loaded to contact each other in the 

longitudinal direction. Motor carriers 

may continue to use the pre-January 1, 

2004, cargo securement regulations for 

the transportation of groups of metal 

coils with eyes crosswise, as this 

loading configuration is not currently 

covered under the Agency’s commodityspecific rules for securing metal coils in 

the Code of Federal Regulations. The 

Agency has concluded that granting this 

exemption renewal will likely maintain 

a level of safety that is equivalent to, or 

greater than, the level of safety achieved 

without the exemption. The Agency 

welcomes public comments on the 

renewal. 

DATES: This decision is effective April 

26, 2022. Comments must be received 

on or before May 26, 2022.

II. Legal Basis 

FMCSA has authority under 49 U.S.C. 

31136(e) and 31315(b)(2) and 49 CFR 

381.300(b) to renew an exemption from 

the Federal Motor Carrier Safety 

Regulations for a 5-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.’’ FCSG 

has requested a five-year extension of 

the current exemption in Docket No. 

FMCSA–2010–0177. 

III. Background 

FMCSA may renew an exemption 

from the Federal Motor Carrier Safety 

Regulations for a five-year period (49 

U.S.C. 31315(b)(2)) 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’’ (49 U.S.C. 

31315(b)(1); see also 49 U.S.C. 

31136(e)). FCSG has requested a fiveyear extension for the exemption from 

49 CFR 393.120 to allow motor carriers 

to comply with the pre-January 1, 2004, 

cargo securement regulations (then at 49 

CFR 393.100(c)) for the transportation of 

groups of metal coils with eyes 

crosswise. The procedures for 

requesting an exemption (including 

renewals) are set out in 49 CFR part 381. 

Current Regulation(s) Requirements 

Currently, 49 CFR 393.120 specifies 

requirements for the securement of one 

or more metal coils which, individually 

or grouped together, weigh 5,000 

pounds or more. Metal coils can be 

transported with eyes vertical, 

lengthwise, or crosswise. 

Unlike the requirements for securing 

coils with eyes vertical (49 CFR 

393.120(b)) and lengthwise (49 CFR 

393.120(d)), the current securement
