    It's going to effect everyone, particularly OTR's in my opinion. Of course it's not 100 percent sealed yet. The date is the 14th, and FIMCA is fighting this, so we'll see. There are many links pertaining to your question, so run a search. :)

    Everybody is on pins and needles waiting to find out what is going to happen and the bureaucrats being bureaucrats are taking their sweet ### time and waiting to tell anybody what the rules will be. Figure sometime between sept 7 to 14 they'll get around to announcing something.
