FMCSA is seeking approval of revision of the ICR, now approved by OMB until May 31, 2020, in order to add the BMC-32 form, entitled, “Endorsement for Household Goods Motor Carrier Policies of Insurance for Cargo Liability Under 49 U.S.C. 13906,” for its use along with the approved use of the BMC-34, BMC-35, BMC-36, BMC-40, BMC-82, BMC-83, BMC-84, BMC-85, BMC-91, and BMC-91X forms. The mandatory forms are used annually for reporting purposes, by for-hire motor carriers, freight forwarders and brokers to meet the statutory requirement to submit evidence of financial responsibility prior to their registration by the FMCSA as condition for continuation of their registration. The ICR allows the FMCSA to ensure the public is protected and will be compensated for claims involving bodily injury and property damage, or loss or damage to household goods, respectively, within the limits prescribed by FMCSA. The ICR enforces the filing of surety bonds or trust fund agreements to help ensure that motor carriers and shippers are protected against non-performance of the broker’s or freight forwarder’s legal obligations. Insurance companies can be held liable for any damages that may occur to the public (up to the limits of the policy), and to supersede any exclusions or limitations which may be contained in the insured motor carrier’s or freight forwarder’s policy. Additionally, FMCSA can make a determination regarding whether an entity qualifies for the grant of self-insurance authority. Endorsement Form BMC-32 sets forth the minimum limits of liability or cargo insurance coverage that an FMCSA-regulated motor carrier or freight forwarder is required to maintain. Attachment of the endorsement to the insurance policy establishes continuing compliance with statutory and regulatory requirements.
The latest form for Financial Responsibility, Trucking and Freight Forwarding expires 2022-02-28 and can be found here.
