What is PRISM?● Cooperative Federal/State Program
● Links safety fitness to state vehicle registrations
● Funding for nationwide implementation began in 1998● PRISM program run by FMCSA over 17 years
● Currently 46 PRISM Jurisdictions in different phases of implementation● Implementation progress tracked in a PRISM Status Map

PRISM Stakeholders
Law Enforcementidentifies vehicles
operating while under a Federal Out‐of‐Service Order
and takes action
PRISMprovides
Target File of OOS Carriers and Vehicles
IRPdenies and suspends
registrations to OOS carriers
FMCSAissues Federal OOS orders to unsafe motor carriers
● IRP is the backbone of the PRISM program● 15 PRISM Registration Requirements
● Bringing safety down to the Vehicle level
● Establishes link between “Motor Carrier Responsible for Safety” and every commercial vehicle registered in IRP

Why do PRISM States have a review?
● PRISM Implementation Reviews help both FMCSA and State partners to track progress of State’s accomplishments
● 15 IRP Registration requirements 6 Law Enforcementrequirements discussed in detail with State partners
● Recommendations are provided to States in a final report
PRISM Implementation Reviews

● Colorado (On‐Site)
● Idaho
● Maine
● North Dakota
● New Jersey
● New Mexico
● Rhode Island (On‐Site)
PRISM Implementation Reviews

FY‐2015 PRISM reviews (7 total)● 3 completed
● Ohio
● Minnesota
● Missouri
● 4 upcoming
● Texas (April)
● Vermont (June On‐Site)
● Kansas (June)
● Oklahoma (4th quarter / On‐Site)
PRISM Implementation Reviews
12
● States reviewed in general are satisfying all of the PRISM IRP Registration requirements
● All States reviewed in FY‐2014 are successfully denyingOut‐of‐Service carriers from obtaining IRP registrations
● Most States (87%) reviewed in FY‐2014 are suspendingvehicle registrations of all OOS carriers
Common Findings from FY‐2014 Reviews
13
● Some States are not consistently reporting quarterly to FMCSA for the total number of registration denials and suspensions
● Most States are applying the IRP Status Code 950 for vehicles that have been suspended due to Federal OOS
● All PRISM States demonstrate strong communications between the IRP Office, State Law Enforcement agencies and the local FMCSA Division office
Common Findings from FY‐2014 Reviews
14
● Recommendations from a PRISM Review are used by States to create an action plan and correct any issues
● Example 1: In some IRP systems, the error message for an OOS carrier simply reads as “Out‐of‐Service”
● Recommendation: Add more descriptive text to PRISM error messages to include Federal Out‐of‐Service reason
● Example 2: In some IRP systems, the 950 Status codes were only being updated during a monthly baseline
● Recommendation: Add programming to ensure that the IRP Status Codes are updated on a nightly basis
Common Findings from FY‐2014 Reviews
15
What is a Reincarnated/Affiliated carrier?
● A.K.A – Chameleon Carriers
● Carriers that attempt to evade FMCSA OOS sanctions by obtaining a new USDOT Number and re‐registering vehicles
FMCSA Problem: Reincarnated Carriers
16
How does PRISM and IRP help identify?
● PRISM States at Step 8 GOLD have authority to deny registration to reincarnated carriers
● Prior to registration, IRP Offices perform a VIN Check against the PRISM Target File
● Has this vehicle been previously registered to an OOS carrier?
● IRP Office administrators compare the “new” USDOT Number to the “old” USDOT Number and look for similarities
FMCSA Problem: Reincarnated Carriers
17
After the 2 USDOT Numbers are compared, the IRP Administrator will do one of the following:
Valid Transfer – No Affiliations
● Override the VIN error
● Provide registration to new carrier
● Email is sent to PRISM to remove VIN from Target File
Suspected Reincarnation
● IRP can confirm with FMCSA Division
● Deny new registration
Communications between IRP, FMCSA, and PRISM
18
● Emails sent from IRP are analyzed by PRISM support● PRISM notifies FMCSA Division office and the IRP Office of any
suspected reincarnated carriers
Communications between IRP, FMCSA, and PRISM
19Example Data
● A monthly report of any suspected reincarnated carriers is generated by PRISM and sent to the FMCSA Division offices
● FMCSA Division may assign Safety Investigator to a case number to look into the two companies as possible reincarnate
