On October 05, 2016 (81 FR 69185), the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) published a notice in the federal register requesting public comment on future enhancements to the Safety Measurement System (SMS). FMCSA proposes enhancements to information on the public SMS Web site and responds to comments received in response to FMCSA’s Federal Register Notice, “Proposal for Future Enhancements to the Motor Carrier Safety Measurement System (SMS),” published on June 29, 2015 (80 FR 37037). These enhancements are a continuation of FMCSA’s efforts to provide law enforcement, the motor carrier industry, and motor carriers with more informative safety data. This notice explains FMCSA’s proposed enhancements to the public SMS Web site, including two additional changes not originally proposed, which were identified during the development of the SMS Preview.

The proposed enhancements will be available for preview, at: https://csa.fmcsa.dot.gov/SMSPreview/ on October 4, 2016. FMCSA seeks comments on these changes based on the preview and will not implement the changes until after FMCSA satisfies the requirements of Section 5223 of the FAST Act. Comments must be received by December 3, 2016. Question and Answer (Q&A) sessions for the public and industry are scheduled for the following dates and times: 1.
