The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration's (FMCSA) MCSAC and MRB will meet to discuss information, concepts, and ideas the FMCSA should consider in developing regulatory guidance for motor carriers, commercial motor vehicle (CMV) drivers, and medical examiners on obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and whether drivers with this condition should be medically certified to operate CMVs in interstate commerce.  The members of MCSAC and MRB will hear presentations from experts in the field of OSA to aid in their discussions and recommendations.
