SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background: In chapter 141 of the ICC
Termination Act of 1995 (ICCTA),
Public Law 104–88, 109 Stat. 803, 893
(Dec. 29, 1995) now codified at 49
U.S.C. 14123, Congress transferred the
responsibility for collecting the
Financial and Operating Statistics
(F&OS) data to the Secretary of
Transportation (Secretary). The ICCTA
requires the Secretary to collect annual
financial reports from Class I and Class
II motor carriers of passengers.
However, the Secretary has exercised
the authority under 49 U.S.C. 14123 to
require only Class I motor carriers of
passengers to file annual reports to
ensure that they are in compliance with
the F&OS program requirements (See 78
FR 76241 (12/17/13), as codified at 49
CFR 369.4).
The Form MP–1 annual report will be
used to collect financial, operating,
equipment and employment data from
individual motor carriers of passengers.
All Class I for-hire motor carriers of
passengers with gross annual operating
revenues of $5 million or more are
required to file annual reports.
The data will be available to users in
its original form. The data are not used

by the Department of Transportation,
and, based on comments to the
proposed rule finalized on December 17,
2013, as discussed above, the data are
no longer used by trucking associations.
Insurance companies, consultants, law
firms, academia, trade publications and
others may use the data to assess
industry growth and its impact on the
economy, to identify industry changes
that may affect national transportation,
and to monitor company financial
stability. The Bureau of Economic
Analysis (BEA) of the U.S. Department
of Commerce uses the data to inform the
national annual input-output and Gross
Domestic Product (GDP) estimates. BEA
uses the data to prepare estimates of
industry output and provide details on
inputs to supplement the information
on motor carriers of passengers
collected by the U.S. Census Bureau.
Title: Annual Report of Class I Motor
Carriers of Passengers.
OMB Control Number: 2126–0031.
Type of Request: Extension of a
currently approved information
collection.
Respondents: Motor Carriers.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
408.
Estimated Time per Response: 18
minutes.
Expiration Date: April 30, 2017.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Background
Under 49 U.S.C. 31136(e) and 31315,
FMCSA may grant an exemption from
the FMCSRs for a two-year period if it
finds ‘‘such exemption would likely
achieve a level of safety that is
equivalent to or greater than the level
that would be achieved absent such
exemption.’’ The statute also allows the
Agency to renew exemptions at the end
of the two-year period.
The eight individuals listed in this
notice have requested an exemption
from the epilepsy prohibition in 49 CFR
391.41(b)(8). Accordingly, the Agency
will evaluate the qualifications of each
applicant to determine whether granting
the exemption will achieve the required
level of safety mandated by statute.
The physical qualification standard
for drivers regarding epilepsy found in
49 CFR 391.41(b)(8) states that a person
is physically qualified to drive a CMV
if that person:
Has no established medical history or
clinical diagnosis of epilepsy or any other
condition which is likely to cause the loss of
consciousness or any loss of ability to control
a CMV.
