The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) released a final rule that establishes reductions in the annual registration fees states collect from commercial carriers and other entities required by law to participate in the Unified Carrier Registration (UCR) Plan and Agreement, the National Waste and Recycling Association (NWRA) announced. NWRA says the move will help save member companies thousands of dollars per year.
The fees will be reduced 14.45 percent below the 2018 fee level and will remain at the same level for registration years beginning in 2020. The fees will remain the same unless revised in the future.
“The National Waste and Recycling Association appreciates the work of the FMCSA on behalf our member companies. This decision makes clear that the agency recognizes the financial burden administrative costs can put on businesses,” NWRA President and CEO Darrell Smith says.
