OTA Institute: DOT Compliance for the Construction Industry

November 5, 2026 9:00 AM - 2:00 PM (EST)

Description

Operating commercial motor vehicles within the construction sector comes with a unique, complex web of state and federal regulations. From transporting heavy machinery to hauling raw aggregates and tools, staying compliant while maximizing operational efficiency is a constant challenge.

Join us on Thursday, November 5 at the OTA Training Center in Westerville for an intensive, industry-specific seminar designed exclusively for construction fleet managers, safety directors, and business owners. Led directly by experts from the Public Utilities Commission of Ohio (PUCO) and the Ohio State Highway Patrol (OSHP), this course cuts through the regulatory noise to deliver clear, actionable guidance specifically tailored to your day-to-day field operations.

Key Topics Covered:

  • Construction Industry HOS Exemptions: Comprehensive breakdowns of Intrastate short-haul provisions and the specific Construction Material and Equipment regulations.
  • Driver Qualifications Deep-Dive: Rigorous review of Commercial Driver’s License (CDL) classifications, proper endorsements, and Medical Examiner’s Certificate (MEC) requirements.
  • Drug & Alcohol Compliance: Navigating mandatory testing protocols, random pool management, and critical employer requirements for the FMCSA Drug and Alcohol Clearinghouse.
  • Audit Readiness (Vehicle vs. Office): Clear delineations of what paperwork must remain inside the cab for roadside checks versus what must be securely archived in your driver qualification and maintenance files.
  • Company Markings & Authority: Ensuring correct legal display on your fleet vehicles and understanding the scope of your PUCO operating authority.
  • Size, Weight, & Special Hauling: Navigating Ohio's legal limits, axle configurations, and the exact process for securing special hauling permits for oversized or overweight equipment.

This is a rare opportunity to learn directly from the regulatory and enforcement officers who conduct inspections and compliance reviews across Ohio. Bring your toughest operational questions and leave with the clarity needed to protect your business from costly out-of-service orders and fines.
