FMCSA finalizes intermodal 'roadability' rule FMCSA finalizes intermodal 'roadability' rule Quote: Intermodal equipment providers (IEPs) will be responsible for establishing systematic inspection, repair and maintenance programs to ensure the safe operating condition of each intermodal chassis under a final rule to be published by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration in Wednesday’s Federal Register. The new rule, which is slated to take effect in six months, also would require IEPs to register with FMCSA and file an Intermodal Equipment Provider Identification Report (Form MCS-150C). In addition, IEPs will be required to maintain documentation of their maintenance program and provide a means to effectively respond to driver and motor carrier reports about intermodal chassis mechanical defects and deficiencies. IEPs will have to mark each intermodal chassis offered for transportation in interstate commerce with a U.S. Department of Transportation identification number.
