The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration’s Truck Leasing Task Force will hold its first meeting of 2024 on Jan. 18 from 10 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Eastern.

The meeting will be held virtually, and attendees are asked to register in advance by Jan. 12. Registration will be available in the coming days.

TLTF will begin consideration of Task 24-1, officially titled “Inequitable leasing agreements and terms in the motor carrier industry and whether they affect the frequency of maintenance performed on subjected vehicles and whether a vehicle is kept in a general state of good repair”. In addition, FMCSA will provide an ethics presentation to the TLTF members.

Oral comments from the public will be heard during designated comment periods at the discretion of the TLTF chair and designated federal officer.
