SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Public Participation and Request for Comments
Instructions and additional information concerning submitting
comments may be viewed under the ADDRESSES heading and in section I of
the SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION heading in the July 10, 2024, notice of
MFT's exemption renewal application at 89 FR 56787-56788.
II. Background
FMCSA published a notice of MFT's application to renew its
exemption ``for the maximum available period'' from the sleeper berth
requirements, which previously were set forth in 49 CFR
395.1(g)(1)(ii)(A) and (B) on July 10, 2024, with a comment deadline of
August 9, 2024. That notice sought public comment on the renewal
application but did not include the supplemental document titled
``McKee Foods Transportation Sleeper-Berth Exemption Provisions
Interpretation'' in the docket. FMCSA believes that potential
commenters should have an opportunity to review both documents.
Accordingly, FMCSA reopens the comment period for all comments on MFT's
application for renewal of its exemption in light of the supplemental
document explaining the interpretation of the exemption.
Larry W. Minor,
Associate Administrator for Policy.
