Acting Governor Foley Extends Temporary Waiver of Regulations for Truckers Hauling Critically Needed Fuels

LINCOLN – On Dec 1st, acting Governor Mike Foley signed Executive Order 22-07 to extend emergency relief on account of regional fuel shortages. The order temporarily allows drivers to work extended hours to haul gasoline or gasoline blends, diesel, fuel oil, ethanol, propane, and biodiesel.
