SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On November 18, 2024, FMCSA published a
final rule titled ``Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations'' (89 FR
90608) that amended its regulations by making technical corrections
throughout the FMCSRs. The rule became effective upon publication but
contained two errors. The first error occurred in amendatory
instruction no. 107, where the Agency sought to revise Sec. 387.307,
which is stayed, without first lifting the stay. The second error
occurred in amendatory instruction no. 152, where the Agency sought to
revise paragraph (2) of the definition of commerce in Sec. 397.65 and
referenced non-existent paragraph (s) instead of the intended paragraph
(2). FMCSA published a final rule and correction on January 10, 2025
(90 FR 1908), correcting these two errors. The final rule and
correction became effective upon publication.
On January 20, 2025, the President issued a memorandum titled,
``Regulatory Freeze Pending Review'' (90 FR 8249, Jan. 28, 2025), to
direct executive departments and agencies to consider postponing for 60
days the effective date for any rules that had been published in the
Federal Register but had not taken effect for the purpose of reviewing
any questions of fact, law, and policy that the rules may raise. While
not explicitly subject to the President's memorandum, FMCSA is
providing notice that it will exercise its enforcement discretion and
not enforce the provisions of the correction and final rule titled
``Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations; Correction'' until March
20, 2025, to allow the officials appointed or designated by the
President to review the correction and final rule to ensure that it is
consistent with the law and Administration policies. The final rule
titled ``Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations,'' published and
effective on November 18, 2024, remains in force.
Issued under authority delegated in 49 CFR 1.87.
Sue Lawless,
Assistant Administrator/Chief Safety Officer.
