Summary of Issue

In the CVSA OOSC Part II Policy Statement reference is made that violations other than OOS violations must be corrected or repaired prior to redispatch.

Justification or Need

Clarification is sought on the meaning of redispatch to accommodate uniformity nationally and internationally. Does redispatch mean when a vehicle is dispatched from point A to point B then off loads does this conclude the dispatched trip? If a vehicle is dispatched from point A and includes various consignees requiring various drops is the dispatch trip concluded at the first drop or last drop? If a bus (school bus) is scheduled to operate on a daily route that includes pick up and drop off in the morning (point A and B) and then pick up and drop off in the afternoon point C and D), does the dispatched trip conclude before picking up at point C or does it conclude at point D?

Request for Action

Clarification on what is the current definition of redispatch and include the definition in the OOSC Policy Statement. If there is no designated definition of redispatch request a CVSA definition be developed, and be included in the Policy Statement.
