| 01-31735 | Parts and Accessories Necessary for Safe Operation; Renewal of Fuel Tank Exemptions for Vehicles Manufactured by the Ford Motor Company | Notice | The FMCSA is granting the application from the Ford Motor Company (Ford) for a renewal of exemptions for the vehicles specified at the end of this notice from certain fuel tank design and certification labeling requirements in the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations (FMCSRs). The exemptions enable motor carriers to operate commercial motor vehicles (CMVs) manufactured by Ford, and equipped with fuel tanks that do not meet the FMCSA's requirements that fuel tanks be capable of receiving fuel at a rate of at least 20 gallons per minute, and be labeled or marked by the manufacturer to certify compliance with the design criteria. The FMCSA believes the terms and conditions of the exemptions have ensured a level of safety that is equivalent to the level of safety that would be achieved by complying with the regulations, and that renewing the exemptions would not adversely affect highway safety. The exemptions continue to preempt inconsistent State and local requirements applicable to interstate commerce. | 2001-12-27 | 2001 | 12 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2001/12/27/01-31735/parts-and-accessories-necessary-for-safe-operation-renewal-of-fuel-tank-exemptions-for-vehicles | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2001-12-27/pdf/01-31735.pdf | Transportation Department; Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration | 492,181 | The FMCSA is granting the application from the Ford Motor Company (Ford) for a renewal of exemptions for the vehicles specified at the end of this notice from certain fuel tank design and certification labeling requirements in the Federal Motor Carrier... |
