B. Privacy Act
In accordance with 5 U.S.C. 553(c), DOT solicits comments from the
public to better inform its rulemaking process. DOT posts these
comments, without edit, including any personal information the
commenter provides, to <a href="http://www.regulations.gov">www.regulations.gov</a>, as described in the system
of records notice (DOT/ALL-14 FDMS), which can be reviewed at
<a href="http://www.transportation.gov/privacy">www.transportation.gov/privacy</a>.
II. Background
On August 4, 2021, FMCSA published a notice announcing its decision
to renew exemptions for 123 individuals from the vision requirement in
49 CFR 391.41(b)(10) to operate a CMV in interstate commerce and
requested comments from the public (86 FR 42009). The public comment
period ended on September 3, 2021, and no comments were received.
FMCSA has evaluated the eligibility of these applicants and
determined that renewing these exemptions would achieve a level of
safety equivalent to, or greater than, the level that would be achieved
by complying with the current regulation Sec. 391.41(b)(10).
The physical qualification standard for drivers regarding vision
found in Sec. 391.41(b)(10) states that a person is physically
qualified to drive a CMV if that person has distant visual acuity of at
least 20/40 (Snellen) in each eye without corrective lenses or visual
acuity separately corrected to 20/40 (Snellen) or better with
corrective lenses, distant binocular acuity of a least 20/40 (Snellen)
in both eyes with or without corrective lenses, field of vision of at
least 70[deg] in the horizontal meridian in each eye, and the ability
to recognize the colors of traffic signals and devices showing red,
green, and amber.
III. Discussion of Comments
FMCSA received no comments in this proceeding.
IV. Conclusion
Based on its evaluation of the 123 renewal exemption applications
and comments received, FMCSA confirms its decision to exempt the
following drivers from the vision requirement in Sec. 391.41(b)(10).
In accordance with 49 U.S.C. 31136(e) and 31315(b), the following
groups of drivers received renewed exemptions in the month of September
and are discussed below. As of September 6, 2021, and in accordance
with 49 U.S.C. 31136(e) and 31315(b), the following 115 individuals
