Small Business in Transportation Coalition - Petition for Rulemaking

Summary: The State Board of Tax Commissioners (SBTC) is submitting a petition for rulemaking to clarify that the Unified Carrier Registration (UCR) Plan is a federal advisory board rather than an interstate compact. They argue that the UCR Plan is falsely representing its legal status to secure federal benefits and request that the FMCSA adopt specific language to reflect its status as an arm of the federal government.
