This site displays a prototype of a “Web 2.0” version of the daily Federal Register. It is not an official legal edition of the Federal Register, and does not replace the official print version or the official electronic version on GPO’s govinfo.gov.
The documents posted on this site are XML renditions of published Federal Register documents. Each document posted on the site includes a link to the corresponding official PDF file on govinfo.gov. This prototype edition of the daily Federal Register on FederalRegister.gov will remain an unofficial informational resource until the Administrative Committee of the Federal Register (ACFR) issues a regulation granting it official legal status. For complete information about, and access to, our official publications and services, go to About the Federal Register on NARA's archives.gov.
The OFR/GPO partnership is committed to presenting accurate and reliable regulatory information on FederalRegister.gov with the objective of establishing the XML-based Federal Register as an ACFR-sanctioned publication in the future. While every effort has been made to ensure that the material on FederalRegister.gov is accurately displayed, consistent with the official SGML-based PDF version on govinfo.gov, those relying on it for legal research should verify their results against an official edition of the Federal Register. Until the ACFR grants it official status, the XML rendition of the daily Federal Register on FederalRegister.gov does not provide legal notice to the public or judicial notice to the courts.
FederalRegister.gov retrieves relevant information about this document from Regulations.gov to provide users with additional context. This information is not part of the official Federal Register document.

Notice of application for renewal of exemption; extension of comment period.
FMCSA reopens the comment period for its July 10, 2024, notice requesting public comment on an application from McKee Foods Transportation, LLC (MFT) for a renewal of its exemption from the hours-of-service regulation pertaining to the use of a sleeper berth. FMCSA has ( printed page 84439) added a supplemental document to the docket titled “McKee Foods Transportation Sleeper-Berth Exemption Provisions Interpretation.” FMCSA reopens the comment period to allow the public an opportunity to review MFT's application for renewal of its exemption along with the supplemental document available for review in the docket.
Comments must be received on or before November 21, 2024.
Ms. Pearlie Robinson, FMCSA Driver and Carrier Operations Division; Office of Carrier, Driver and Vehicle Safety Standards; FMCSA; 1200 New Jersey Avenue SE, Washington, DC 20590-0001; (202) 366-4225; or pearlie.robinson@dot.gov. If you have questions on viewing or submitting material to the docket, contact Docket Services, telephone (202) 366-9826.
Instructions and additional information concerning submitting comments may be viewed under the ADDRESSES heading and in section I of the SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION heading in the July 10, 2024, notice of MFT's exemption renewal application at 89 FR 56787-56788.
FMCSA published a notice of MFT's application to renew its exemption “for the maximum available period” from the sleeper berth requirements, which previously were set forth in 49 CFR 395.1(g)(1)(ii)(A) and (B) on July 10, 2024, with a comment deadline of August 9, 2024. That notice sought public comment on the renewal application but did not include the supplemental document titled “McKee Foods Transportation Sleeper-Berth Exemption Provisions Interpretation” in the docket. FMCSA believes that potential commenters should have an opportunity to review both documents. Accordingly, FMCSA reopens the comment period for all comments on MFT's application for renewal of its exemption in light of the supplemental document explaining the interpretation of the exemption.

Associate Administrator for Policy.
