34、he equivalent State standards; and 49 CFR chapter I, subchapter CHaz-ardous Materials Regulations. CMV means a commercial motor ve-hicle as defined in 390.5 of this sub-chapter. Commercial motor vehicle shall have the same meaning as described in 390.5 of this subchapter, except that this def-initio

35、n will also apply to intrastate motor vehicles subject to the haz-ardous materials safety permit require-ments of subpart E of this part. FMCSA means the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration. FMCSRs mean Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations (49 CFR parts 350 399). HMRs means the Hazardous

36、 Mate-rials Regulations (49 CFR parts 100 178). Motor carrier operations in commerce means commercial motor vehicle transportation operations either (1) In interstate commerce, or (2) Affecting interstate commerce. New entrant is a motor carrier not domiciled in Mexico that applies for a United Stat

37、es Department of Transpor-tation (DOT) identification number in order to initiate operations in inter-state commerce. New entrant registration is the reg-istration (US DOT number) granted a new entrant before it can begin inter-state operations in an 18-month moni-toring period. A safety audit must

38、be performed on a new entrants oper-ations within 18 months after receipt of its US DOT number and it must be found to have adequate basic safety management controls to continue oper-ating in interstate commerce at the end of the 18-month period.

The compliance re-view may result in the initiation of an enforceme

43、nt action. (2) Safety audit means an examination of a motor carriers operations to pro-vide educational and technical assist-ance on safety and the operational re-quirements of the FMCSRs and appli-cable HMRs and to gather critical safe-ty data needed to make an assessment of the carriers safety per

44、formance and basic safety management controls. Safety audits do not result in safety ratings. (3) Safety management controls means the systems, policies programs, prac-tices, and procedures used by a motor carrier to ensure compliance with ap-plicable safety and hazardous materials regulations which

45、 ensure the safe movement of products and passengers through the transportation system, and to reduce the risk of highway acci-dents and hazardous materials inci-dents resulting in fatalities, injuries, and property damage. (4) Roadability review means an on- site examination of the intermodal equip

Safety fitness determination means the final determination by FMCSA that a motor carrier meets the safety fitness standard under 385.5. Safety rating or rating means a rating of Satisf

48、s under 385.5(a). A safety rating of Satisfac-tory or Conditional is necessary, but not sufficient, to meet the overall safety fitness standard under 385.5. (1) Satisfactory safety rating means that a motor carrier has in place and functioning safety management con-trols adequate to meet that portio

49、n of the safety fitness standard prescribed in 385.5(a). Safety management con-trols are adequate for this purpose if they are appropriate for the size and type of operation of the particular motor carrier. (2) Conditional safety rating means a motor carrier does not have adequate safety management controls in place to ensure compliance with that portion of the safety fitness standard prescribed in 385.5(a), which
