FMCSA Issues Settlement Order, Appeal Deadlines in Five Cases
FMCSA's Deputy Administrator adopted a hearing officer's report in the case of PB&J Transport LLC on Oct. 30, 2026, making a settlement agreement the final agency order and closing docket FMCSA-2024-0241, the order said.
The same day, FMCSA issued procedural orders in three appeals of rejected operating authority applications: Wealthy Man Travelers LLC, Robinson Transports LLC, and Unlimited Construction 2 LLC. Each order directs FMCSA's Office of Registration to respond within 20 days of service, including the evidence behind its rejection and its findings under 49 U.S.C. § 13902(a). The applicants then have 15 days after that response to reply, the orders said.
FMCSA also referred TM Transport USA LLC to binding arbitration after the carrier admitted violations tied to a $6,490 proposed penalty. The Notice of Claim alleged the carrier let a driver operate without a valid CDL and failed to preserve driver duty-status records for six months, according to the order. The parties will jointly select an arbitrator; the resulting award is binding, with appeals limited to fraud or misconduct in the proceedings.
What's next
- Office of Registration responses due 20 days after each Oct. 30, 2026 procedural order in the Wealthy Man Travelers, Robinson Transports, and Unlimited Construction 2 dockets.
- Applicants get 15 days after those responses to reply.
- TM Transport USA and FMCSA's Southern Service Center will select an arbitrator; no hearing date set yet.
