Docket No. FMCSA-97-2979
Abstract
FMCSA is amending its regulations governing the interstate transportation of personal effects or property used, or to be used, in a private residence (household goods). Our regulations specify how motor carriers who transport household goods by motor vehicle in interstate commerce (movers) must assist their individual customers who ship household goods. We are updating the regulations to make them easier to understand and have made several changes designed to assist consumers. We seek additional public comment on the information collection requirements for this interim final rule. We will not enforce the information collection requirements of this interim final rule until we obtain approval for them from the Office of Management and Budget (OMB).
