National Propane Gas Association - Petition for Rulemaking

Summary: The National Propane Gas Association (NPGA) is requesting that the FMCSA amend its regulations to allow for the declaration of "imminent" emergencies, similar to FEMA's authority under the Stafford Act. They argue that this change would allow for better preparation and mitigation of disasters by enabling hours-of-service relief for drivers before an emergency actually occurs.
