DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION

Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration

[Docket No. FMCSA-2019-0015]

Qualification of Drivers; Exemption Applications; Vision

AGENCY: Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA), DOT.

ACTION: Notice of final disposition.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: FMCSA announces its decision to exempt 15 individuals from the
vision requirement in the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations
(FMCSRs) to operate a commercial motor vehicle (CMV) in interstate
commerce. They are unable to meet the vision requirement in one eye for
various reasons. The exemptions enable these individuals to operate
CMVs in interstate commerce without meeting the vision requirement in
one eye.

DATES: The exemptions were applicable on November 1, 2019. The
exemptions expire on November 1, 2021.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Ms. Christine A. Hydock, Chief,
Medical Programs Division,<PHONE_NUMBER><EMAIL_ADDRESS>FMCSA,
Department of Transportation, 1200 New Jersey Avenue SE, Room W64-224,
Washington, DC 20590-0001. Office hours are from 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m.,

of records notice (DOT/ALL-14 FDMS), which can be reviewed at
www.dot.gov/privacy.

II. Background

    On October 1, 2019, FMCSA published a notice announcing receipt of
applications from 15 individuals requesting an exemption from vision
requirement in 49 CFR 391.41(b)(10) and requested comments from the
public (84 FR 52160). The public comment period ended on October 31,
2019, and two comments were received.
    FMCSA has evaluated the eligibility of these applicants and
determined that

granting the exemptions to these individuals would achieve a level of
safety equivalent to, or greater than, the level that would be achieved
by complying with Sec.  391.41(b)(10).
    The physical qualification standard for drivers regarding vision
found in Sec.  391.41(b)(10) states that a person is physically
qualified to drive a CMV if that person has distant visual acuity of at
least 20/40 (Snellen) in each eye without corrective lenses or visual
acuity separately corrected to 20/40 (Snellen) or better with
corrective lenses, distant binocular acuity of a least 20/40 (Snellen)
in both eyes with or without corrective lenses, field of vision of at
least 70[deg] in the horizontal meridian in each eye, and the ability
to recognize the colors of traffic signals and devices showing red,
green, and amber.

III. Discussion of Comments

    FMCSA received two comments in this proceeding. Mahatab Hossain
submitted a comment that was not directed to FMCSA, and was unrelated
to the content of this notice.
    Vicky Johnson, from the Minnesota Department of Public Safety,
submitted a comment stating that MN has no objections to FMCSA's
decision to grant an exemption to an individual who was not specified
in the comment.

IV. Basis for Exemption Determination

    Under 49 U.S.C. 31136(e) and 31315(b), FMCSA may grant an exemption
from the FMCSRs for no longer than a 5-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 5-year period. FMCSA grants medical exemptions from the
FMCSRs for a 2-year period to align with the maximum duration of a
driver's medical certification.
    The Agency's decision regarding these exemption applications is
based on medical reports about the applicants' vision, as well as their
driving records and experience driving with the vision deficiency. The
qualifications, experience, and medical condition of each applicant
were stated and discussed in detail in the October 1, 2019, Federal
Register notice (84 FR 52160) and will not be repeated here.
    FMCSA recognizes that some drivers do not meet the vision
requirement but have adapted their driving to accommodate their
limitation and demonstrated their ability to drive safely. The 15
exemption applicants listed in this notice are in this category. They
are unable to meet the vision requirement in one eye for various
reasons, including amblyopia, cataract, corneal scars, lenticonus,
macular hole, macular scar, paracentral scotoma, prosthesis, retinal
detachment, and retinopathy. In most cases, their eye conditions did
not develop recently. Ten of the applicants were either born with their
vision impairments or have had them since childhood. The five
individuals that developed their vision conditions as adults have had
them for a range of 8 to 26 years. Although each applicant has one eye
that does not meet the vision requirement in Sec.  391.41(b)(10), each
has at least 20/40 corrected vision in the other eye, and, in a
doctor's opinion, has sufficient vision to perform all the tasks
necessary to operate a CMV.
    Doctors' opinions are supported by the applicants' possession of a
valid license to operate a CMV. By meeting State licensing
requirements, the applicants demonstrated their ability to operate a
CMV with their limited vision in intrastate commerce, even though their
vision disqualified them from driving in interstate commerce. We
believe that the applicants' intrastate driving experience and history
provide an adequate basis for predicting their ability to drive safely
in interstate commerce. Intrastate driving, like interstate operations,
involves substantial driving on highways on the interstate system and
on other roads built to interstate standards. Moreover, driving in
congested urban areas exposes the driver to more pedestrian and
vehicular traffic than exists on interstate highways. Faster reaction
to traffic and traffic signals is generally required because distances
between them are more compact. These conditions tax visual capacity and
driver response just as intensely as interstate driving conditions.
    The applicants in this notice have driven CMVs with their limited
vision in careers ranging for 5 to 85 years. In the past three years,
one driver was involved crashes, and no drivers were convicted of
moving violations in CMVs. All the applicants achieved a record of
safety while driving with their vision impairment that demonstrates the
likelihood that they have adapted their driving skills to accommodate
their condition. As the applicants' ample driving histories with their
vision deficiencies are good predictors of future performance, FMCSA
concludes their ability to drive safely can be projected into the
future.
    Consequently, FMCSA finds that in each case exempting these
applicants from the vision requirement in Sec.  391.41(b)(10) is likely
to achieve a level of safety equal to that existing without the
exemption.

V. Conditions and Requirements

    The terms and conditions of the exemption are provided to the
applicants in the exemption document and includes the following: (1)
Each driver must be physically examined every year (a) by an
ophthalmologist or optometrist who attests that the vision in the
better eye continues to meet the standard in Sec.  391.41(b)(10) and
(b) by a certified medical examiner (ME) who attests that the
individual is otherwise physically qualified under Sec.  391.41; (2)
each driver must provide a copy of the ophthalmologist's or
optometrist's report to the ME at the time of the annual medical
examination; and (3) each driver must provide a copy of the annual
medical certification to the employer for retention in the driver's
qualification file, or keep a copy in his/her driver's qualification
file if he/she is self-employed. The driver must also have a copy of
the exemption when driving, for presentation to a duly authorized
Federal, State, or local enforcement official.

VI. Preemption

    During the period the exemption is in effect, no State shall
enforce any law or regulation that conflicts with this exemption with
respect to a person operating under the exemption.

VII. Conclusion

    Based upon its evaluation of the 15 exemption applications, FMCSA
exempts the following drivers from the vision requirement, Sec.
391.41(b)(10), subject to the requirements cited above:

David E. Bryant, Jr. (NC)
Zackary C. Crichton (WY)
Terence P. Dailey (FL)
Robert K. Eggleston (OH)
Luis Gonzalez (NJ)
Ahmed M. Gutale (MN)
James W. Harris (TX)
Dobbin L. Kirkbride (OH)
Daniel F. Large (MO)
Jonathan D. Matlasz (CT)
James Muldoon (NY)
Andrew R. Peel (MT)
William D. Shelt (AL)
James L. Stacy (AR)
James J. Walsh (NH)

    In accordance with 49 U.S.C. 31136(e) and 31315(b), each exemption
will be valid for 2 years from the effective date unless revoked
earlier by FMCSA. The exemption will be revoked if the following
occurs: (1) The person fails to comply with the terms and conditions of
the exemption; (2) the exemption has resulted in a lower level of
safety than

was maintained prior to being granted; or (3) continuation of the
exemption would not be consistent with the goals and objectives of 49
U.S.C. 31136(e) and 31315(b).

    Issued on: November 26, 2019.

II. EPA Action
III. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews

I. Background

A. Delegation of NESHAP

    Section 112(l) of the Clean Air Act, as amended in 1990 (CAA),
authorizes EPA to delegate to State or local air pollution control
agencies the authority to implement and enforce the standards set out
in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 40 (40 CFR), Part 63,
National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants for Source
Categories. On November 26, 1993, EPA promulgated regulations, codified
at 40 CFR Part 63, Subpart E (hereinafter referred to as ``Subpart
E''), establishing procedures for EPA's approval of State rules or
programs under section 112(l) (see 58 FR 62262). Subpart E was later
amended on September 14, 2000 (see 65 FR 55810).
    Any request for approval under CAA section 112(l) must meet the
approval criteria in 112(l)(5) and Subpart E. To streamline the
approval process for future applications, a State or local agency may
submit a one-time demonstration that it has adequate authorities and
resources to implement

and enforce any CAA section 112 standards. If such demonstration is
approved, then the State or local agency would no longer need to
resubmit a demonstration of these same authorities and resources for
every subsequent request for delegation of CAA section 112 standards.
However, EPA maintains the authority to withdraw its approval if the
State does not adequately implement or enforce an approved rule or
program.

B. Maricopa County Delegations

    On March 2, 2000, EPA published a direct final action delegating to
the Maricopa County Air Quality Department (Maricopa County) several
NESHAP and approving Maricopa County's delegation mechanism for future
standards (see 65 FR 11231). That action explained the procedure for
EPA to grant future delegations to Maricopa County by letter, with
periodic Federal Register listings of standards that have been
delegated. On March 11, 2009, Maricopa County requested delegation of
the following NESHAP contained in 40 CFR Part 63:
     Subpart DDDD--NESHAP: Plywood and Composite Wood
Products.
     Subpart DDDDD--NESHAP for Industrial, Commercial,
Institutional Boilers and Process Heaters.
    On April 28, 2009, EPA granted delegation to Maricopa County for
these NESHAP, along with any amendments to previously delegated NESHAP,
as of July 1, 2006. Today's action is serving to notify the public of
the April 28, 2009, delegation and to codify these delegations into the
Code of Federal Regulations.

C. Nevada Delegations

    On May 27, 1998, EPA published a direct final action delegating to
the Nevada Division of Environmental Protection (NDEP) several NESHAP
and approving NDEP's delegation mechanism for future standards (see 63
FR 28906). That action explained the procedure for EPA to grant
delegations to NDEP by letter, with periodic Federal Register listings
of standards that have been delegated. On September 29, 2008, NDEP
requested delegation of the following NESHAP contained in 40 CFR Part
63:

     The amendments to Subpart DDDD--NESHAP: Plywood and

D. Washoe County Delegations

    On May 27, 1998, EPA published a direct final action delegating to
Washoe County District Health Department (Washoe County) several
NESHAPs and approving Washoe County's delegation mechanism for future
standards (see 63 FR 28906). That action explained the procedure for
EPA to grant future delegations to Washoe County by letter, with
periodic Federal Register listings of standards that have been
delegated. On January 15, 2009, the Washoe County Air Quality
Management Division requested delegation of the following NESHAP
contained in 40 CFR Part 63:

     Subpart VVV--Publicly Owned Treatment Works.
     Subpart EEEE--Organic Liquids Distribution (Non-
Gasoline).
     Subpart WWWW--Reinforced Plastic Composites Production.
     Subpart ZZZZ--Reciprocating Internal Combustion
Engines.
     Subpart WWWWW--Hospital Ethylene Oxide Sterilizers.
     Subpart BBBBBB--Gasoline Distribution Bulk Terminals,

Operations Area Sources.
     Subpart WWWWWW--Area Source Standards for Plating and
Polishing Operations.
     Subpart XXXXXX--Area Source Standards for Nine Metal
Fabrication and Finishing Source Categories.

    On February 26, 2009, EPA granted delegation to Washoe County for
these NESHAP, along with any amendments to previously-delegated NESHAP,
as of August 28, 2008. Today's action is serving to notify the public
of the February 26, 2009, delegations and to codify these delegations
into the Code of Federal Regulations.

II. EPA Action

    Today's document serves to notify the public of the delegation of
NESHAP to Maricopa County on April 28, 2009, to NDEP on December 1,
2008, and to Washoe County on February 26, 2009. Today's action will
codify these delegations into the Code of Federal Regulations.

III. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews

    Under the Clean Air Act, the Administrator is required to approve
delegation requests that comply with the provisions of the Act and
applicable Federal regulations. 42 U.S.C. 7412(l); 40 CFR 63.91(b).
Thus, in reviewing delegation submissions, EPA's role is to approve
State choices, provided that they meet the criteria of the Clean Air
Act. Accordingly, this action merely approves State law as meeting
Federal requirements and does not impose additional requirements beyond
those imposed by State law. For that reason, this action:
     Is not a ``significant regulatory action'' subject to
review by the Office of Management and Budget under Executive Order
12866 (58 FR 51735, October 4, 1993);
     Does not impose an information collection burden under the
provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.);
     Is certified as not having a significant economic impact
on a substantial number of small entities

under the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601 et seq.);
     Does not contain any unfunded mandate or significantly or
uniquely affect small governments, as described in the Unfunded
Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (Pub. L. 104-4);
     Does not have Federalism implications as specified in
Executive Order 13132 (64 FR 43255, August 10, 1999);
     Is not an economically significant regulatory action based
on health or safety risks subject to Executive Order 13045 (62 FR
19885, April 23, 1997);
     Is not a significant regulatory action subject to
Executive Order 13211 (66 FR 28355, May 22, 2001);
     Is not subject to requirements of Section 12(d) of the
National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act of 1995 (15 U.S.C. 272
note) because application of those requirements would be inconsistent
with the Clean Air Act; and
     Does not provide EPA with the discretionary authority to
address, as appropriate, disproportionate human health or environmental
effects, using practicable and legally permissible methods, under
Executive Order 12898 (59 FR 7629, February 16, 1994).

In addition, this rule does not have Tribal implications as specified
by Executive Order 13175 (65 FR 67249, November 9, 2000), because the
delegations are not approved to apply in Indian country located in the
State, and EPA notes that it will not impose substantial direct costs
on Tribal governments or preempt Tribal law.
    The Congressional Review Act, 5 U.S.C. 801 et seq., as added by the
Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act of 1996, generally
provides that before a rule may take effect, the agency promulgating
the rule must submit a rule report, which includes a copy of the rule,
to each House of the Congress and to the Comptroller General of the
United States. EPA will submit a report containing this action and
other required information to the U.S. Senate, the U.S. House of
Representatives, and the Comptroller General of the United States prior
to publication of the rule in the Federal Register. A major rule cannot
take effect until 60 days after it is published in the Federal
Register. This action is not a ``major rule'' as defined by 5 U.S.C.
804(2).
    Under section 307(b)(1) of the Clean Air Act, petitions for
judicial review of this action must be filed in the United States Court
of Appeals for the appropriate circuit by April 27, 2010. Filing a
petition for reconsideration by the Administrator of this final rule
does not affect the finality of this action for the purposes of
judicial review nor does it extend the time within which a petition for
judicial review may be filed, and shall not postpone the effectiveness
of such rule or action. Parties with objections to this direct final
rule are encouraged to file a comment in response to the parallel
notice of proposed rulemaking for this action published in the Proposed
Rules section of today's Federal Register, rather than file an
immediate petition for judicial review of this direct final rule, so
that EPA can withdraw this direct final rule and address the comment in
the proposed rulemaking. This action may not be challenged later in
proceedings to enforce its requirements (see section 307(b)(2)).

List of Subjects in 40 CFR Part 63
