In addition, the Agency requested public comment on petitions for rulemaking from the Owner- Operator Independent Drivers Association (OOIDA) and TruckerNation.org (TruckerNation). The ANPRM provides an opportunity for additional discussion of each of these topics. The listening session will provide interested persons to share their views on these topics with representatives of the Agency. The Agency encourages ELD vendors to participate to address potential implementation issues should changes to the HOS rules be made. III. Meeting Participation The listening session is open to the public. Speakers' remarks will be limited to 2 minutes each.
