OOSC, Part IV, Item 3. U.S. Federal Out-of-Service Orders - Update FMCSR Sections

Make corrections to Part IV, Item 3. U.S. FEDERAL OUT-OF-SERVICE ORDERS of the North American Standard Out-of-Service Criteria (OOSC). First, the violation in the table for 385.13(a)(1) needs to be split into two separate violation listings. Although both are contained in the same title, section and subsection it is confusing to list both hazmat and passenger violations in the same line. By listing them separately, it will be easier to understand and properly cite the violation. The result would be the following: 385.13(a)(1) OOS Order ?Operating Unsat/Unfit Motor Carrier Hazmat; 385.13(a)(1) OOS Order ? Operating Unsat/Unfit Motor Carrier Passenger. Second, the CFR for imminent hazard has changed so that it now includes a separate violation for motor carriers and intermodal equipment providers. Therefore, the OOSC needs to be updated to show both. The result would be the following: 386.72(b)(4) - Violating an OOS order imminent hazard motor carrier; 386.72(b)(4)- Violating an OOS order imminent hazard intermodal equipment provider.

The first change will make it easier to understand and properly cite violations related to unsat/unfit carriers. The second change will update the OOSC to make it consistent with the code of federal regulations by updating the code cite and adding a violation related to the addition of intermodal equipment providers.

Update and amend Part IV, Item 3. of the OOSC.
