II. Background
On January 16, 2018, FMCSA
published a notice announcing its
decision to renew exemptions for 109
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 (83
FR 2306). The public comment period
ended on February 15, 2018, and no
comments were received.
As stated in the previous notice,
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 49 CFR 391.41(b)(10).
The physical qualification standard
for drivers regarding vision found in 49
CFR 391.41(b)(10) states that a person is
