H.R. 3095
A bill to ensure that any new or revised requirement providing for the
screening, testing, or treatment of individuals operating commercial
motor vehicles for sleep disorders is adopted pursuant to a rulemaking
proceeding, and for other purposes
As ordered reported by the House Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure
on September 18, 2013
H.R. 3095 would require the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA)
within the Department of Transportation to complete a formal rulemaking process if the
agency decides to establish requirements for commercial truckers to address certain sleep
disorders among drivers. Under current law, the agency could issue such requirements
without going through a formal rulemaking process by issuing guidance to trucking
companies.
Based on information from FMCSA, CBO estimates that enacting the legislation would not
have a significant effect on the federal budget. The agency has announced that it will
complete a rulemaking on this issue under current law. CBO estimates that the bill would
not affect revenues or direct spending; therefore, pay-as-you-go procedures do not apply.
H.R. 3095 contains no intergovernmental or private-sector mandates as defined in the
Unfunded Mandates Reform Act and would not affect the budgets of state, local, or tribal
governments.
The CBO staff contact for this estimate is Sarah Puro. The estimate was approved by
Theresa Gullo, Deputy Assistant Director for Budget Analysis.
