Department Regulatory Agenda; 

Semiannual Summary 

AGENCY: Office of the Secretary, DOT. 

ACTION: Semiannual regulatory agenda. 

SUMMARY: The Regulatory Agenda is a 

semiannual summary of all current and 

projected rulemakings, reviews of 

existing regulations, and completed 

actions of the Department. The intent of 

the Agenda is to provide the public with 

information about the Department of 

Transportation’s regulatory activity 

planned for the next 12 months. It is 

expected that this information will 

enable the public to be more aware of 

and allow it to more effectively 

participate in the Department’s 

regulatory activity. The public is also 

invited to submit comments on any 

aspect of this Agenda.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

Improvement of our regulations is a 

prime goal of the Department of 

Transportation (Department or DOT). 

Our regulations should be clear, simple, 

timely, fair, reasonable, and necessary. 

They should not be issued without 

appropriate involvement of the public; 

once issued, they should be periodically 

reviewed and revised, as needed, to 

assure that they continue to meet the 

needs for which they originally were 

designed. To view additional 

information about the Department’s 

regulatory activities online, go to 

http://www.dot.gov/regulations. Among 

other things, this Web site provides a 

report, updated monthly, on the status 

of the DOT significant rulemakings 

listed in the semiannual regulatory 

agenda. 

To help the Department achieve these 

goals, and in accordance with Executive 

Order (E.O.) 12866, ‘‘Regulatory 

Planning and Review,’’ (58 FR 51735; 

Oct. 4, 1993) and the Department’s 

Regulatory Policies and Procedures (44 

FR 11034; Feb. 26, 1979), the 

Department prepares a semiannual 

regulatory agenda. It summarizes all 

current and projected rulemakings, 

reviews of existing regulations, and 

completed actions of the Department. 

These are matters on which action has 

begun or is projected during the 

succeeding 12 months or such longer 

period as may be anticipated or for 

which action has been completed since 

the last Agenda. 

The Agendas are based on reports 

submitted by the offices initiating the 

rulemaking and are reviewed by OST. 

The Internet is the basic means for 

disseminating the Unified Agenda. The 

complete Unified Agenda is available 

online at www.reginfo.gov, in a format 

that offers users a greatly enhanced 

ability to obtain information from the 

Agenda database. 

Because publication in the Federal 

Register is mandated for the regulatory 

flexibility agendas required by the 

Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 

602), DOT’s printed Agenda entries 

include only: 

1. The agency’s Agenda preamble; 

2. Rules that are in the agency’s 

regulatory flexibility agenda, in 

accordance with the Regulatory 

Flexibility Act, because they are likely 

to have a significant economic impact 

on a substantial number of small 

entities; and 

3. Any rules that the agency has 

identified for periodic review under 

section 610 of the Regulatory Flexibility 

Act. 

Printing of these entries is limited to 

fields that contain information required 

by the Regulatory Flexibility Act’s 

Agenda requirements. These elements 

are: Sequence Number; Title; Section 

610 Review, if applicable; Legal 

Authority; Abstract; Timetable; 

Regulatory Flexibility Analysis 

Required; Agency Contact; and 

Regulation Identifier Number (RIN). 

Additional information (for detailed list, 

see section heading ‘‘Explanation of 

Information on the Agenda’’) on these 

entries is available in the Unified 

Agenda published on the Internet. 

Significant/Priority Rulemakings 

The Agenda covers all rules and 

regulations of the Department. We have 

classified rules as a DOT agency priority 

in the Agenda if they are, essentially, 

very beneficial, controversial, or of 

substantial public interest under our 

Regulatory Policies and Procedures. All 

DOT agency priority rulemaking 

documents are subject to review by the 

Secretary of Transportation. If the Office 

of Management and Budget (OMB) 

decided a rule is subject to its review 

under Executive Order 12866, we have 

classified it as significant in the Agenda. 

Explanation of Information on the 

Agenda 

An Office of Management and Budget 

memorandum, dated August 25, 2014, 

requires the format for this Agenda. 

First, the Agenda is divided by 

initiating offices. Then, the Agenda is 

divided into five categories: (1) Prerule 

stage, (2) proposed rule stage, (3) final 

rule stage, (4) long-term actions, and (5) 

completed actions. For each entry, the 

Agenda provides the following 

information: (1) Its ‘‘significance’’; (2) a 

short, descriptive title; (3) its legal basis; 

(4) the related regulatory citation in the 

Code of Federal Regulations; (5) any 

legal deadline and, if so, for what action 

(e.g., NPRM, final rule); (6) an abstract; 

(7) a timetable, including the earliest 

expected date for a decision on whether 

to take the action; (8) whether the 

rulemaking will affect small entities 

and/or levels of Government and, if so, 

which categories; (9) whether a 

Regulatory Flexibility Act (RFA) 

analysis is required (for rules that would 

have a significant economic impact on 

a substantial number of small entities); 

(10) a listing of any analyses an office 


tkelley on DSK3SPTVN1PROD with PROPOSALS 13
Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 245 / Monday, December 22, 2014 / Unified Agenda 76753 

will prepare or has prepared for the 

action (with minor exceptions, DOT 

requires an economic analysis for all its 

rulemakings); (11) an agency contact 

office or official who can provide 

further information; (12) a Regulation 

Identifier Number (RIN) assigned to 

identify an individual rulemaking in the 

Agenda and facilitate tracing further 

action on the issue; (13) whether the 

action is subject to the Unfunded 

Mandates Reform Act; (14) whether the 

action is subject to the Energy Act; and 

(15) whether the action is major under 

the congressional review provisions of 

the Small Business Regulatory 

Enforcement Fairness Act. If there is 

information that does not fit in the other 

categories, it will be included under a 

separate heading entitled ‘‘Additional 

Information.’’ One such example of this 

is the letters ‘‘SB,’’ ‘‘IC,’’ and ‘‘SLT.’’ 

These refer to information used as part 

of our required reports on Retrospective 

Review of DOT rulemakings. A ‘‘Y’’ or 

an ‘‘N,’’ for yes and no, respectively, 

follow the letters to indicate whether or 

not a particular rulemaking would have 

effects on: Small businesses (SB); 

information collections (IC); or State, 

local, or tribal (SLT) governments. 

For nonsignificant regulations issued 

routinely and frequently as a part of an 

established body of technical 

requirements (such as the Federal 

Aviation Administration’s Airspace 

Rules), to keep those requirements 

operationally current, we only include 

the general category of the regulations, 

the identity of a contact office or 

official, and an indication of the 

expected number of regulations; we do 

not list individual regulations. 

In the ‘‘Timetable’’ column, we use 

abbreviations to indicate the particular 

documents being considered. ANPRM 

stands for Advance Notice of Proposed 

Rulemaking, SNPRM for Supplemental 

Notice of Proposed Rulemaking, and 

NPRM for Notice of Proposed 

Rulemaking. Listing a future date in this 

column does not mean we have made a 

decision to issue a document; it is the 

earliest date on which we expect to 

make a decision on whether to issue it. 

In addition, these dates are based on 

current schedules. Information received 

subsequent to the issuance of this 

Agenda could result in a decision not to 

take regulatory action or in changes to 

proposed publication dates. For 

example, the need for further evaluation 

could result in a later publication date; 

evidence of a greater need for the 

regulation could result in an earlier 

publication date. 

Finally, a dot (•) preceding an entry 

indicates that the entry appears in the 

Agenda for the first time. 

Request for Comments 

General 

Our agenda is intended primarily for 

the use of the public. Since its 

inception, we have made modifications 

and refinements that we believe provide 

the public with more helpful 

information, as well as make the Agenda 

easier to use. We would like you, the 

public, to make suggestions or 

comments on how the Agenda could be 

further improved. 

Reviews 

We also seek your suggestions on 

which of our existing regulations you 

believe need to be reviewed to 

determine whether they should be 

revised or revoked. We particularly 

draw your attention to the Department’s 

review plan in appendix D. In response 

to Executive Order 13563 

‘‘Retrospective Review and Analysis of 

Existing Rules,’’ we have prepared a 

retrospective review plan providing 

more detail on the process we use to 

conduct reviews of existing rules, 

including changes in response to 

Executive Order 13563. We provided 

the public opportunities to comment at 

www.regulations.gov and Idea Scale on 

both our process and any existing DOT 

rules the public thought needed review. 

The plan and the results of our review 

can be found at http://www.dot.gov/

regulations and http://www.dot.gov/

mission/open/open-government. 

Regulatory Flexibility Act 

The Department is especially 

interested in obtaining information on 

requirements that have a ‘‘significant 

economic impact on a substantial 

number of small entities’’ and, therefore, 

must be reviewed under the Regulatory 

Flexibility Act. If you have any 

suggested regulations, please submit 

them to us, along with your explanation 

of why they should be reviewed. 

In accordance with the Regulatory 

Flexibility Act, comments are 

specifically invited on regulations that 

we have targeted for review under 

section 610 of the Act. The phrase (sec. 

610 Review) appears at the end of the 

title for these reviews. Please see 

appendix D for the Department’s section 

610 review plans. 

Consultation With State, Local, and 

Tribal Governments 

Executive Orders 13132 and 13175 

require us to develop an accountable 

process to ensure ‘‘meaningful and 

timely input’’ by State, local, and tribal 

officials in the development of 

regulatory policies that have federalism 

or tribal implications. These policies are 

defined in the Executive Orders to 

include regulations that have 

‘‘substantial direct effects’’ on States or 

Indian tribes, on the relationship 

between the Federal Government and 

them, or on the distribution of power 

and responsibilities between the Federal 

Government and various levels of 

Government or Indian tribes. Therefore, 

we encourage State and local 

Governments or Indian tribes to provide 

us with information about how the 

Department’s rulemakings impact them. 

Purpose 

The Department is publishing this 

regulatory Agenda in the Federal 

Register to share with interested 

members of the public the Department’s 

preliminary expectations regarding its 

future regulatory actions. This should 

enable the public to be more aware of 

the Department’s regulatory activity and 

should result in more effective public 

participation. This publication in the 

Federal Register does not impose any 

binding obligation on the Department or 

any of the offices within the Department 

with regard to any specific item on the 

Agenda. Regulatory action, in addition 

to the items listed, is not precluded. 

Dated: September 23, 2014. 

Anthony R. Foxx, 

Secretary of Transportation.

Appendix D—Review Plans for Section 

610 and Other Requirements 

Part I—The Plan 

General 

The Department of Transportation has 

long recognized the importance of 

regularly reviewing its existing 

regulations to determine whether they 

need to be revised or revoked. Our 1979 

Regulatory Policies and Procedures 

require such reviews. We also have 

responsibilities under Executive Order 

12866, ‘‘Regulatory Planning and 

Review,’’ and section 610 of the 

Regulatory Flexibility Act to conduct 

such reviews. This includes the use of 

plain language techniques in new rules 

and considering its use in existing rules 

when we have the opportunity and 

resources to permit its use. We are 

committed to continuing our reviews of 

existing rules and, if needed, will 

initiate rulemaking actions based on 

these reviews. 

In accordance with Executive Order 

13563, ‘‘Improving Regulation and 

Regulatory Review,’’ issued by the 

President on January 18, 2011, the 

Department has added other elements to 

its review plan. The Department has 

decided to improve its plan by adding 

special oversight processes within the 

Department; encouraging effective and 

timely reviews, including providing 

additional guidance on particular 

problems that warrant review; and 

expanding opportunities for public 

participation. These new actions are in 

addition to the other steps described in 

this appendix. 

Section 610 Review Plan 

Section 610 requires that we conduct 

reviews of rules that: (1) Have been 

published within the last 10 years, and 

(2) have a ‘‘significant economic impact 

on a substantial number of small 

entities’’ (SEIOSNOSE). It also requires 

that we publish in the Federal Register 

each year a list of any such rules that 

we will review during the next year. 

The Office of the Secretary and each of 

the Department’s Operating 

Administrations have a 10-year review 

plan. These reviews comply with 

section 610 of the Regulatory Flexibility 

Act. 

Changes to the Review Plan 

Some reviews may be conducted 

earlier than scheduled. For example, to 

the extent resources permit, the plain 

language reviews will be conducted 

more quickly. Other events, such as 

accidents, may result in the need to 

conduct earlier reviews of some rules. 

Other factors may also result in the need 

to make changes; for example, we may 

make changes in response to public 

comment on this plan or in response to 

a presidentially mandated review. If 

there is any change to the review plan, 

we will note the change in the following 

Agenda. For any section 610 review, we 

will provide the required notice prior to 

the review. 

Part II—The Review Process 

The Analysis 

Generally, the agencies have divided 

their rules into 10 different groups and 

plan to analyze one group each year. For 

purposes of these reviews, a year will 

coincide with the fall-to-fall schedule 

for publication of the Agenda. Thus, 

Year 1 (2008) begins in the fall of 2008 

and ends in the fall of 2009; Year 2 

(2009) begins in the fall of 2009 and 

ends in the fall of 2010, and so on. We 

request public comment on the timing 

of the reviews. For example, is there a 

reason for scheduling an analysis and 

review for a particular rule earlier than 

we have? Any comments concerning the 

plan or particular analyses should be 

submitted to the regulatory contacts 

listed in appendix B, General 

Rulemaking Contact Persons. 

Section 610 Review 

The agency will analyze each of the 

rules in a given year’s group to 

determine whether any rule has a 

SEIOSNOSE and, thus, requires review 

in accordance with section 610 of the 

Regulatory Flexibility Act. The level of 

analysis will, of course, depend on the 

nature of the rule and its applicability. 

Publication of agencies’ section 610 

analyses listed each fall in this Agenda 

provides the public with notice and an 

opportunity to comment consistent with 

the requirements of the Regulatory 

Flexibility Act. We request that public 

comments be submitted to us early in 

the analysis year concerning the small 

entity impact of the rules to help us in 

making our determinations. 

In each fall Agenda, the agency will 

publish the results of the analyses it has 

completed during the previous year. For 

rules that had a negative finding on 

SEIOSNOSE, we will give a short 

explanation (e.g., ‘‘these rules only 

establish petition processes that have no 

cost impact’’ or ‘‘these rules do not 

apply to any small entities’’). For parts, 

subparts, or other discrete sections of 

rules that do have a SEIOSNOSE, we 

will announce that we will be 

conducting a formal section 610 review 

during the following 12 months. At this 

stage, we will add an entry to the 

Agenda in the prerulemaking section 

describing the review in more detail. We 

also will seek public comment on how 

best to lessen the impact of these rules 

and provide a name or docket to which 

public comments can be submitted. In 

some cases, the section 610 review may 

be part of another unrelated review of 

the rule. In such a case, we plan to 

clearly indicate which parts of the 

review are being conducted under 

section 610.

Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 245 / Monday, December 22, 2014 / Unified Agenda 76755 

Other Reviews 

The agency will also examine the 

specified rules to determine whether 

any other reasons exist for revising or 

revoking the rule or for rewriting the 

rule in plain language. In each fall 

Agenda, the agency will also publish 

information on the results of the 

examinations completed during the 

previous year. 

Part III—List of Pending Section 610 

Reviews 

The Agenda identifies the pending 

DOT section 610 Reviews by inserting 

‘‘(Section 610 Review),’’ after the title 

for the specific entry. For further 

information on the pending reviews, see 

the Agenda entries at www.reginfo.gov. 

For example, to obtain a list of all 

entries that are in section 610 Reviews 

under the Regulatory Flexibility Act, a 

user would select the desired responses 

on the search screen (by selecting 

‘‘advanced search’’) and, in effect, 

generate the desired ‘‘index’’ of reviews.

Section 610 Review Plan 

The FAA has elected to use the twostep, two-year process used by most 

DOT modes in past plans. As such, the 

FAA has divided its rules into 10 groups 

as displayed in the table below. During 

the first year (the ‘‘analysis year’’), all 

rules published during the previous 10 

years within a 10% block of the 

regulations will be analyzed to identify 

those with a SEIOSNOSE. During the 

second year (the ‘‘review year’’), each 

rule identified in the analysis year as 

having a SEIONOSE will be reviewed in 

accordance with Section 610 (b) to 

determine if it should be continued 

without change or changed to minimize 

impact on small entities. Results of 

those reviews will be published in the 

DOT Semiannual Regulatory Agenda.

Federal-Aid Highway Program 

The Federal Highway Administration 

(FHWA) has adopted regulations in title 

23 of the CFR, chapter I, related to the 

Federal-Aid Highway Program. These 

regulations implement and carry out the 

provisions of Federal law relating to the 

administration of Federal aid for 

highways. The primary law authorizing 

Federal aid for highways is chapter I of 

title 23 of the U.S.C. 145 of title 23 

expressly provides for a federally 

assisted State program. For this reason, 

the regulations adopted by the FHWA in 

title 23 of the CFR primarily relate to the 

requirements that States must meet to 

receive Federal funds for the 

construction and other work related to 

highways. Because the regulations in 

title 23 primarily relate to States, which 

are not defined as small entities under 

the Regulatory Flexibility Act, the 

FHWA believes that its regulations in 

title 23 do not have a significant 

economic impact on a substantial 

number of small entities. The FHWA 

solicits public comment on this 

preliminary conclusion.

49 CFR part 387—Minimum Levels of 

Financial Responsibility for Motor 

Carriers 

• Section 610: The agency conducted 

a Section 610 review of this part 

and found no SEIOSNOSE. While 

part 387 affects a substantial 

number of small entities, the 

currently required minimum levels 

of financial responsibility do not 

impose a significant economic 

impact because the industry 

standard imposed by lenders 

requires an even higher level of 

coverage. 

• General: On July 6, 2012, the 

President signed Moving Ahead for 

Progress in the 21st Century Act 

(MAP–21) into law. Section 32104 

of MAP–21 directed the Secretary to 

issue a report on the 

appropriateness of: (1) the current 

minimum financial responsibility 

requirements for the transportation 

of passengers and property; and (2) 

the current bond and insurance 

requirements for freight forwarders 

and brokers, including for brokers 

for motor carriers of passengers. 

FMCSA issued this report in April 

2014. Section 32104 also directed 

the Secretary to determine the 

appropriateness of these 

requirements every 4 years and to 

issue similar reports to Congress. In 

its April 2014 report, FMCSA 

concluded that the current financial 

responsibility minimums are 

inadequate to cover the costs of 

some crashes. FMCSA is drafting an 

Advance Notice of Proposed 

Rulemaking an to considering 

increasing the current levels of 

minimum financial responsibility.

Year 6 (Fall 2013) List of Rules 

Analyzed and a Summary of Results 

49 CFR part 216—Special Notice and 

Emergency Order Procedures: 

Railroad Track, Locomotive and 

Equipment 

• Section 610: There is no 

SEIOSNOSE. 

• General: Since the rule deals with 

the special notices for repairs of 

railroad freight car, locomotive, 

passenger equipment, and track 

class, and prescribes for the 

issuance and review of emergency 

orders for removing dangerously 

substandard track from service, it 

will provide safety and security for 

railroad employees and the public. 

FRA’s plain language review of this 

rule indicates no need for 

substantial revision. 

49 CFR part 228—Hours of Service of 

Railroad Employees 

• Section 610: There is no 

SEIOSNOSE. 

• General: Since the rule prescribes 

reporting and recordkeeping 

requirements regarding the hours of 

service of certain railroad 

employees, railroad contractors and 

subcontractors; establishes 

requirements for electronic 

recordkeeping systems for the 

creation and maintenance of 

required hours of service records; 

establishes standards and 

procedures concerning the 

construction or reconstruction of 

sleeping quarters; establishes 

minimum safety and health 

standards for camp cars provided 

by a railroad as sleeping quarters; 

and prescribes substantive hours of 

service requirements for train 

employees engaged in commuter or 

intercity rail passenger 

transportation, it promotes the 

safety of railroad operations and 

employees. FRA’s plain language 

review of this rule indicates no 

need for substantial revision. 

49 CFR part 229—Railroad Locomotive 

Safety Standards 

• Section 610: There is a 

SEIOSNOSE. These are minimum 

Federal standards for railroad 

locomotive safety. The FRA will 

conduct a formal review to identify 

whether opportunities may exist to 

reduce the burden on small 

railroads without compromising 

safety standards. 

• General: Since the rule prescribes 

minimum Federal safety standards 

for all locomotives except those 

propelled by steam power, these 

regulations are necessary to achieve 

better and effective compliance of 

railroad locomotive safety standards 

and to minimize the number of 

casualties. FRA’s plain language 

review of this rule indicates that 

there is no need for substantial 

revision.

Year 6 (Fall 2013): List of Rules 

Analyzed and Summary of Results 

49 CFR part 622—Environmental Impact 

and Related Procedures 

• Section 610: The agency has 

determined that the rule does not 

have a significant effect on a 

substantial number of small 

entities. FTA and FHWA recently 

revised the rule and evaluated the 

likely effects of the final rule on 

small entities and requested public 

comment during the rulemaking 

process. FTA and FHWA 

determined that the rule does not 

have a significant economic impact 

on entities of any size. FTA and 

FHWA expect the revisions to the 

rule will expedite environmental 

review. Thus, FTA and FHWA 

determined that the rule will not 

have a significant economic impact 

on a substantial number of small 

entities. FTA and FHWA received 

no comment on this issue in the 

rulemaking process. 

• General: FTA revised part 622 via a 

final rule in January 2013, in order 

to implement recent MAP–21 

requirements (see 79 FR 2107). Part 

622 cross-references 23 CFR part 

771. FTA and FHWA joint 

procedures at 23 CFR part 771 

describe how FTA and FHWA 

comply with NEPA and the Council 

on Environmental Quality (CEQ) 

regulations implementing NEPA. 

Sections 1316 and 1317 of MAP–21 

require the Secretary of 

Transportation to promulgate 

regulations designating two types of 

actions as categorical exclusions in 

23 CFR part 771: (1) Any project (as 

defined in 23 U.S.C. 101(a)) within 

an existing operational right-of-way; 

and (2) any project that receives less 

than $5,000,000 of Federal funds or 

with a total estimated cost of not 

more than $30,000,000 and Federal 

funds comprising less than 15 

percent of the total estimated 

project cost, respectively.

meeting sought comment from the 

regulated community including 

small entities on revision to part 

174. PHMSA and FRA have 

evaluated the comments from this 

meeting. The comments to this 

public meeting noted that some 

small entities may be affected, but 

the economic impact on small 

entities will not be significant. As a 

result, the agency determined that 

the rules do not have a significant 

economic impact on a substantial 

number of small entities. A 

response to the public comments, 

including those of small entities, 

and proposals for corresponding 

revisions to part 174 will be 

included in a future rulemaking. 

• General: The requirements in this 

rule are necessary to protect rail 

transportation workers and the 

general public from the dangers 

associated with hazardous materials 

incidents in rail transportation. 

PHMSA’s plain language review of 

this rule indicates no need for 

substantial revision however any 

revisions to part 174 as part of a 

future rulemaking will take into 

account plain language principles 

and where appropriate clarify 

unclear language.

entities, PHMSA found that the 

majority of operators are not small 

businesses. Therefore, though some 

small entities may be affected, the 

economic impact on small entities 

will not be significant. 

• General: No changes are needed. 

These regulations are cost effective 

and impose the least burden.

Legal Authority: 49 U.S.C. 41712; 49 

U.S.C. 40101; 49 U.S.C. 41702 

Abstract: This rulemaking action 

would enhance protections for air 

travelers and to improve the air travel 

environment, including clarification 

and codification of the Department’s 

interpretation of the statutory definition 

of ticket agent.’’ This action would also 

require airlines and ticket agents to 

disclose at all points of sale the fees for 

certain basic ancillary services 

associated with the air transportation 

consumers are buying or considering 

buying. This action would also enhance 

additional airline passenger protections, 

such as: Expanding the pool of 

reporting’’ carriers; requiring enhanced 

reporting by mainline carriers for their 

domestic code-share partner operations; 

requiring large travel agents to adopt 

minimum customer service standards; 

codifying the statutory requirements 

that carriers and ticket agents disclose 

any code-share arrangements on their 

Web sites; and prohibiting unfair and 

deceptive practices such as undisclosed 

biasing and post-purchase price 

increases. This action would require 

ticket agents to disclose the carriers 

whose tickets they sell in order to avoid 

having consumers mistakenly believe 

they are searching all possible flight 

options for a particular city-pair market 

when in fact there may be other options 

available. Additionally, this action 

would correct drafting errors and make 

minor changes to the Department’s 

second Enhancing Airline Passenger 

Protections rule to conform to guidance 

issued by the Department’s Office of 

Aviation Enforcement and Proceedings 

(Enforcement Office) regarding its 

interpretation of the rule.

Abstract: This rulemaking would

technically capable of performing new 

flight training tasks as identified in the 

Airline Safety and Federal Aviation 

Administration Extension Act of 2010 

(Pub. L. 111–216) and that are included 

in a separate rulemaking (2120–AJ00). 

By ensuring the simulators provide an 

accurate and realistic simulation, this 

rulemaking would allow for training on 

the following tasks: (1) Full/

aerodynamic stall, and (2) upset 

recognition and recovery, as identified 

in Public Law 111–216. Furthermore, 

this rulemaking would improve the 

minimum FSTD evaluation 

requirements for gusting crosswinds 

(takeoff/landing), engine and airframe

recommendations. The intended effect 

is to ensure an adequate level of

Legal Authority: 49 U.S.C. 31502; 49

Abstract: FMCSA proposes to adopt 

regulations governing the lease and 

interchange of passenger-carrying 

commercial motor vehicles (CMVs) to: 

(1) Identify the motor carrier operating 

a passenger-carrying CMV and 

responsible for compliance with the 

Federal Motor Carrier Safety 

Regulations (FMCSRs) and all other 

applicable Federal regulations; (2) 

ensure that a lessor surrenders control 

of the CMV for the full term of the lease 

or temporary exchange of CMVs and 

drivers; and (3) require motor carriers 

subject to a prohibition on operating in 

interstate commerce to notify the 

FMCSA in writing before leasing or 

otherwise transferring control of their 

vehicles to other carriers. This action is 

necessary to ensure that unsafe 

passenger carriers cannot evade FMCSA 

oversight and enforcement by operating 

under the authority of another carrier 

that exercises no actual control over 

those operations. This action will enable 

the FMCSA, the National Transportation 

Safety Board (NTSB), and our Federal 

and State partners to identify motor 

carriers transporting passengers in 

interstate commerce, and correctly 

assign responsibility to these entities for 

regulatory violations during inspections, 

compliance investigations, and crash 

studies. It also provides the general 

public with the means to identify the 

responsible motor carrier at the time of 

transportation. While detailed lease and

drivers operating in interstate commerce 

submit, and motor carriers retain, 

driver-vehicle inspection reports when 

the driver has neither found nor been 

made aware of any vehicle defects or

differences in costs. This rulemaking 

would also establish minimum 

requirements for the roles and 

responsibilities of the second train crew 

member on a moving train, and promote 

safe and effective teamwork. 

Additionally, this rulemaking would

proposed to be covered include high 

consequence areas (HCA) for hazardous 

liquids and HCA, Class 3 and 4 for
