Commercial motor vehicle drivers who are subject to the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations must meet certain medical requirements. This revision is due to a Notice of proposed rulemaking, title "Medical Certification Requirements as part of the CDL," which would require CDL drivers to provide motor carriers with a copy of any Federal waiver, exemption or certificate granted to the driver.
A regulatory change has resulted in additional drivers who are subject to medical qualification requirements subject to this information collection and a change in annual burden hours form 1,185, 876 to 1,304,326.
On behalf of this Federal agency, I certify that the collection of information encompassed by this request complies with 5 CFR 1320.9 and the related provisions of 5 CFR 1320.8(b)(3).
The following is a summary of the topics, regarding the proposed collection of information, that the certification covers:
(i) Why the information is being collected;
(ii) Use of information;
(iii) Burden estimate;
(iv) Nature of response (voluntary, required for a benefit, or mandatory);
(v) Nature and extent of confidentiality; and
(vi) Need to display currently valid OMB control number;
If you are unable to certify compliance with any of these provisions, identify the item by leaving the box unchecked and explain the reason in the Supporting Statement.
