ACTION: Correcting amendments.

SUMMARY: FMCSA published a final rule in the Federal Register on
Monday, May 9, 2011, that became effective on July 8, 2011. That final
rule amended the commercial driver's license (CDL) knowledge and skills
testing standards and established new minimum Federal standards for
States to issue the commercial learner's permit (CLP). Since the final
rule was published, FMCSA identified minor discrepancies regarding
section references in existing regulatory text resulting from the final
rule. This document corrects those section references.
DATES: This final rule is effective on May 8, 2012.

Programs, Commercial Driver's License Division, telephone (202) 366-
