Notice

Summary

Analyzed Economic Effects

2 provisions identified: 1 benefits, 1 costs, 0 mixed.

ELD vendor registration renewed

If you make electronic logging devices (ELDs), FMCSA is renewing the Information Collection Request that requires you to self‑certify and register each ELD model and version using Form MCSA-5893. FMCSA estimates 94 respondents, expects about 15 minutes per response, and an estimated total annual burden of 71 hours; the ICR expires July 31, 2025. The Agency plans to submit the renewal to OMB for review and (per the notice summary) does not plan new fees or major changes as part of this renewal.

FMCSA list helps fleets find compliant ELDs

FMCSA will maintain a public list of vendor‑certified ELD models and issue unique identification numbers that vendors embed in devices so fleets and drivers required to keep hours-of-service records (RODS) can find compliant ELDs. This requirement traces to the December 16, 2015 final rule establishing ELD performance and design standards and mandatory use for drivers required to prepare HOS RODS.
