The Connecticut Department of Motor Vehicles has been awarded a $3,482,886 project grant from the U.S. Department of Transportation's Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) under the Commercial Driver's License Program Implementation Grant (CFDA 20.232). The purpose of this 4-year grant, which commenced on September 1, 2023, is to enhance the state's Public Endorsement Review Unit (PERU) and Commercial Driver's License public passenger and school bus endorsement processes, in order to assist with CDL fraud prevention, detection, and remediation. Specifically, the grant funding will be used to implement FMCSA's DACH II requirements and improve the PERU pre-check system. The Connecticut DMV, as the prime recipient, may sub-award a portion of the grant funds to other state agencies, such as the Department of Emergency Services and Public Protection, to support local commercial vehicle safety activities.
