In accordance with Part 211 of Title 49 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), notice is hereby given that the Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) has received a request for a waiver of compliance from certain requirements of its safety standards. The individual petition is described below, including the party seeking relief, the regulatory provisions involved, the nature of the relief being requested, and the petitioner's arguments in favor of relief.
San Manuel Arizona Railroad Company
(Waiver Petition Docket Number FRA-2008-0043)
The San Manuel Arizona Railroad Company (SMAR) seeks a petition for a permanent waiver of compliance from the requirements of 49 CFR Part 223 Safety Glazing—223.11, Requirement for Existing Locomotives. This waiver request is specifically for locomotive numbers 16, 18 and 19.
Locomotive numbers 18 and 19 are equipped with Type I and locomotive number 16 is equipped with Type I-A DOT Glazing. SMAR states that equipping their locomotives with FRA Type Certified Glazing would be a financial burden.
