This $328,770 project grant from the Department of Transportation's Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration to the Massachusetts Department of Transportation will fund increased oversight of the state's commercial driver's license program. Specifically, the grant will support hiring an analyst to analyze skills testing data and an electronic data processing systems analyst to oversee the State Pointer Exchange Services and Out of State Notification units. The goal is to identify and address issues in these programs, as outlined in recent Compliance, Safety, Accountability program reports, by running analyses more frequently. This award advances the Commercial Driver's License Program Implementation grant's aim to help states comply with commercial licensing requirements by dedicating funds to priority activities relating to commercial drivers.
