[Docket No. FMCSA-2018-0105]

Hours of Service of Drivers: Application for Exemption; Wilcox
Truck Line, Inc.

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

ACTION: Notice of application for exemption; request for comments.

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

SUMMARY: FMCSA announces that Wilcox Truck Line, Inc. (Wilcox) has
requested an exemption from the requirement that a motor carrier
install and require each of its drivers to use an electronic logging
device (ELD) to record the driver's hours-of-service (HOS). Wilcox has
requested a 5-year exemption from ELD use when transporting loads in
support of an Idaho National Laboratory (INL) program. INL has
submitted a letter confirming that security regulations require these
loads must be free from being electronically tracked, which requires
disabling of the ELD. Wilcox believes that granting this exemption will
provide an equivalent level of safety because of the strict oversight
of this transportation by INL and other agencies. FMCSA requests public
comment on Wilcox's application for exemption.

DATES: Comments must be received on or before May 4, 2018.

II. Legal Basis

    FMCSA has authority under 49 U.S.C. 31136(e) and 31315 to grant
exemptions from certain parts of the Federal Motor Carrier Safety
Regulations (FMCSRs). FMCSA must publish a notice of each exemption
request in the Federal Register (49 CFR 381.315(a)). The Agency must
provide the public an opportunity to inspect the information relevant
to the application, including any safety analyses that have been
conducted. The Agency must also provide an opportunity for public
comment on the request.
    The Agency reviews safety analyses and public comments submitted,
and determines whether granting the exemption would likely achieve a
level of safety equivalent to, or greater than, the level that would be
achieved by the current regulation (49 CFR 381.305). The decision of
the Agency must be published in the Federal Register (49 CFR
381.315(b)) with the reasons for denying or granting the application
and, if granted, the name of the person or class of persons receiving
the exemption, and the regulatory provision from which the exemption is
granted. The notice must also specify the effective period and explain
the terms and conditions of the exemption. The exemption may be renewed
(49 CFR 381.300(b)).

III. Request for Exemption

    Wilcox Truck Line, Inc. (Wilcox) is the primary carrier for special
projects at the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Idaho National
Laboratory (INL) to transport shipments which need additional controls
to address national security interests. All Wilcox drivers supporting
this specific INL program would be covered by this exemption when
transporting designated shipments for INL. The number of commercial
motor vehicles (CMVs) for this exemption is fewer than 20, and fewer
than 40 drivers will be covered. Wilcox always uses specific team
drivers who have been completely vetted by the DOE to transport these
shipments.
    One DOE/INL security requirement is the ability to disable
electronic tracking of shipments in order to limit identification of
the physical location of the shipment. These shipments require that no
telematic tracking device be used during the movement of the shipment.
Wilcox uses ELDs for its normal operations but would disable them when
transporting INL-designated special shipments. INL would provide
documentation for use during any inspection, showing that the exemption
is in use for that shipment. Wilcox states that the controls that will
be used in lieu of ELDs will be sufficient to ensure there is no
degradation of safety. INL has submitted to the docket for this
exemption a letter dated January 30, 2018, confirming that these
controls will include the following measures:
     Specific team drivers will be used who have been vetted by
DOE to transport national security interests (NSI) loads;
     Logbooks will be used to document hours of service when
the ELDs are disabled;
     Drivers will be required by INL to have a cell phone in
their possession while transporting these shipments;
     INL will require drivers to call-in to INL's 24-hour
Warning Communications Center to report their condition and ensure they
are not experiencing any issues in transit; and
     The Battelle Energy Alliance (BEA) will perform routine
audits of Wilcox Truck line, Inc., to ensure they are compliant with
Federal and State DOT requirements.

IV. Method To Ensure an Equivalent or Greater Level of Safety

    The requested exemption would be used only for the special
shipments designated by INL in documentation carried on vehicles
transporting the special shipments. Additional details of these
shipments could be reviewed by an official having proper authorization
given by the shipper or the carrier's Facility Security Officer (FSO).
All drivers will carry approved cell phones at all times during
shipments. Communications will be maintained during transport via
regular cell phone ``check calls'' to the shipper and or the FSO/
terminal operations or both. As required, drivers will maintain regular
``check calls'' to the INL's Warning Communications Center, which is
continuously staffed, to report their condition and ensure the shipment
is experiencing no issues.
    Copies of Wilcox's application for an exemption and the supporting
INL letter are available for review in the docket for this notice.

    Issued on: March 27, 2018.

 Associate Administrator for Policy.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Background

    This draft guidance provides recommendations to facilitate study
designs to establish the performance characteristics of IVDs intended
for the detection, or detection and differentiation, of HPVs. These
devices are used either in conjunction with cervical cytology to aid in
screening for cervical cancer or as first-line primary cervical cancer
screening devices. These devices include those that detect a group of
HPV genotypes, particularly high risk HPVs, as well as devices that
detect more than one genotype of HPV and further differentiate among
them to indicate which genotype of HPV is present or which genotypes of
HPV are present.
    When finalized, this draft guidance is expected to provide detailed
information on the types of studies the FDA recommends to support a
premarket application for these devices. This draft guidance
specifically addresses devices that qualitatively detect HPV nucleic
acid from cervical specimens, but many of the recommendations will also
be applicable to devices that detect HPV proteins. The draft guidance
is limited to studies intended to establish the performance
characteristics of in vitro diagnostic HPV devices that are used in
conjunction with cervical cytology for cancer screening or as first-
line primary cervical cancer screening devices. This draft guidance
does not address HPV testing from non-cervical specimens such as
pharyngeal, vaginal, penile, or anal specimens, or testing for
susceptibility to HPV infection. It does not address quantitative or
semi-quantitative assays for HPV.

II. Significance of Guidance

    This draft guidance is being issued consistent with FDA's good
guidance practices regulation (21 CFR 10.115). The draft guidance, when
finalized, will represent the current thinking of FDA on evaluating the
performance characteristics of IVDs intended for the detection, or
detection and differentiation, of HPVs. It does not establish any
rights for any person and is not binding on FDA or the public. You can
use an alternative approach if it satisfies the requirements of the
applicable statute and regulations.
