Summary: Mainline Services, LLC, a company providing disaster response and heavy machinery services, supports the proposed 5-year exemption. They argue that the exemption is vital for allowing their equipment to reach derailment sites quickly to restore transit services and manage hazardous materials.
Regarding: FMCSA-2026-1717
Mainline Services, LLC is a company that works to keep our transit system running when disaster strikes. When hazardous material is spilled and trains are on fire after a derailment, it is vital that the heavy machinery required to clean up the disaster can get to the site as quickly as possible. This 5-year exemption would allow Mainline Services to respond to the disaster site in a more timely manner and restore service to our vital interstate transit systems.
