On or about July 8, 2024, the Governor requested FMCSA extend the emergency relief from 49 CFR §§ 395.3 and 395.5 for commercial motor vehicle drivers providing direct assistance to the emergency.

The Extension of the Emergency Declaration provides regulatory relief for commercial motor vehicle operations while providing direct assistance supporting emergency relief efforts related to the emergency resulting from the severe storms and flooding in the State of South Dakota.

The declaration expires on August 8, 2024.

If you need to use this waiver, please print out a copy and have in each of your transports or delivery vehicles.
