The temporary suspension of truckers’ service-hours requirements during the coronavirus crisis was extended by a month and modified, the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration said Aug. 11.
The extension is from Aug. 15 to Sept. 14, the agency said.
The modified and extended emergency declaration (No. 2020-002) applies to drivers providing direct help for Covid-19 relief efforts through the transport of livestock and livestock feed; medical supplies and equipment related to the testing, diagnosis, and treatment of Covid-19; supplies and equipment essential for community safety, sanitation, and the prevention of virus transmission, such as masks, gloves, and hand sanitizer; and the transport of food, paper products, and other groceries for emergency restocking of distribution centers or stores.
The extension specified that “because of current conditions,” the transport of food and other groceries for emergency restocking purposes was being reinstated as a relief category after having been removed in the July 15 extension.
Several extensions have modified the original March 13 declaration first to broaden and then to narrow the categories that qualified for relief under the emergency declaration.
