Review before tenderingHazmat-authorized23 power units

EWING OIL COMPANY INC (USDOT 199338) in HAGERSTOWN, MD — has findings to review before tendering. FMCSA authority, fleet size, BASIC safety measures, crash and inspection history.

  • No pending authority revocation.
  • Not under an uncleared federal out-of-service or safety action.

  • Satisfactory safety rating.
  • No BASIC alerts in any of the five public SMS categories.
  • Driver and vehicle out-of-service rates are at or below the national roadside average.

  • No fatal crashes in the last 24 months.
  • No link to a prior revoked authority.
  • Authority involuntarily revoked 5 times, most recent 2007-09-04 — recurring instability (typically insurance-lapse / reinstate cycles).
  • FMCSA compliance review on file dated 1990-03-21 (C).
  • Crash Indicator and Hazmat Compliance BASICs are statutorily withheld from public SMS under the FAST Act — their absence is not a clean record; use the crash-risk signals above instead. The Hazmat Compliance BASIC is also withheld for this hazmat carrier.
