             Trucking Industry Unemployment



Mr. Chairman and Members of the Subcommittee-

      We are here today at your request to discuss  our June 11,

1982, report to Senator DeConcini entitled  Effects of Regulatory

Reform on Unemployment in the Trucking  Industry (GAO/CED-82-90)

and specifically the results of our work  relating to unemployment

in the trucking industry.

     The Interstate Commerce Commission  (ICC) took administra-

tive steps to reduce the regulatory  framework in the trucking

industry well before the Motor Carrier  Act of 1980 (94 Stat  793).

Beginning in 1977, ICC under  its own autnority eased entry policy,

relaxed certain restrictions  on carriers' existing route systems

and operations, and expanded  the area carriers can serve.
