FMCSA extends emergency declaration to support B.C. flood relief

The U.S. Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) has extended a regional emergency declaration that allows trucks to move through the U.S. when bypassing Canadian areas cut off by floods and landslides in B.C. The declaration now lasts until Jan. 31, adding to relief under U.S. Customs and Border Protection’s temporary in-transit program that was recently extended to Jan. 8.
