The American Horse Council will host a webinar on Feb. 12 at 3 p.m. ET to discuss the recent Electronic Logging Device (ELD) Mandate, which the AHC notes has caused much confusion in the equine industry.
In addition to hosting the webinar—which requires registration but is open both to AHC members and to non-members—the AHC also has published two informational brochures. One is about the ELD Mandate, and the other is about the Commercial Driver’s License, or CDL. Both brochures are available online at the AHC’s website.
“We have been getting quite a few phone calls and emails with questions about the ELD Mandate and how it is going to not only affect the industry, but individuals as well,” said AHC president Julie Broadway. “We hope that holding a webinar addressing the mandate would be a complement to the brochures we have already put together on this issue.”
The webinar will address the details of what the ELD Mandate includes and who is required to have an electronic logging device. It also will cover discuss requirements for the Commercial Driver’s License, as well as what the AHC is doing to mitigate the effects of the proposed changes on the equine industry.
Both AHC members and non-members are encouraged to attend the webinar. The webinar will also be recorded and posted on the AHC website for those that could not attend. Please register online here, and you will receive an email with login instructions two days before the webinar date.
