This
recordkeeping requirement is approved subject to the three
following conditions: 1. Change the language of FHWA's proposed
BMC-90 (1981) to that in the attached approved form. This modified
language is necessary to broaden the use of this new insurance
endorsement form to ICC certificated and permitted motor carriers
of property affected by Sections 29 and 30 of the Motor Carrier Act
of 1980. 2. Prior to resubmitting this recordkeeping requirement
for approval by June 1983, FHWA is required to solicit public
comments on the language, use and compliance of this insurance
endorsement form (BMC-90) from both motor carriers of property and
insurance companies. A summary of the method and substance of the
public comments received should be included in paragraph 5 of the
supporting statement submitted with the June 1983 approval request.
3. Also prior to resubmitting this recordkeeping requirement for
approval, FHWA should identify costs to the Federal government in
ensuring the compliance of this new recordkeeping requirement.
