Pennsylvania has issued an Hours of Service Waiver effective though January 25, 2025. This is for intrastate travel only and does not apply to operators traveling outside Pennsylvania borders. Please make sure to keep a copy of the waiver in your vehicles.
The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) has issued a Regional Declaration of Emergency covering interstate transportation of heating fuels in Pennsylvania, and other states through January 31, 2025. This is a separate action from the intrastate waiver Pennsylvania has issued.
The federal waiver including complete details can be found HERE.
The Emergency Declaration provides emergency relief from hours-of-service requirements for drivers providing direct assistance supporting emergency relief efforts transporting heating fuel, including propane into the affected states. The declaration is effective immediately and shall remain in effect until the end of the emergency (as defined in 49 CFR § 390.5T) or until 11:59 P.M. (ET), January 31, 2025, whichever is sooner. The waiver covers the entire continental United States. Please make sure to keep a copy of this new waiver in your vehicles.
