Interim final rule; change of
effective date.
ACTION:
SUMMARY: On December 18, 2003, FRA
published an Interim Final Rule in the
Federal Register addressing the use of
locomotive horns at highway-rail grade
crossings. As FRA was interested in
receiving public comments on all
aspects of the Interim Final Rule, FRA
held a public hearing in Washington,
DC on February 4, 2004, and extended
the comment period from the originally
scheduled deadline of February 17,
2004, to April 19, 2004. However, by the
close of the extended comment period,
FRA had received more than 1,400
comments on the Interim Final Rule and
Environmental Impact Statement. Given
the extensive amount of time needed to
review and analyze the comments
received, on November 22, 2004, FRA
extended the effective date of the
Interim Final Rule until April 1, 2005.
However, as a result of delays related to
the publication of the final rule, which
FRA intends to issue before the Interim
Final Rule takes effect, FRA is issuing
this document to announce the change
of the Interim Final Rule effective date
to June 24, 2005.
DATES: The effective date of the Interim
Final Rule published at 68 FR 70586
and delayed at 69 FR 67858 is changed
from April 1, 2005, to June 24, 2005.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Ron
Ries, Office of Safety, FRA, 1120
Vermont Avenue, NW., Washington, DC
20590 (telephone 202–493–6299); or
Kathryn Shelton, Office of Chief
Counsel, FRA, 1120 Vermont Avenue,
NW., Washington, DC 20590 (telephone
202–493–6038).
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This
document changes the Interim Final
Rule effective date to June 24, 2005.
Therefore, any requirements imposed by
the Interim Final Rule that pertain to 49
CFR parts 222 and 229 and would have
taken effect before June 24, 2005, need
not be complied with before that date.
This change of the Interim Final Rule
effective date will give public
authorities additional time within
which to establish the necessary
conditions that will permit them to
continue or establish quiet zones within
their respective jurisdictions.
As the provisions of the Interim Final
Rule remain subject to further
modification under the terms of the
final rule, FRA intends to issue the final
rule prior to the Interim Final Rule
effective date stated above. However, in
order to address the concerns of
communities that have been anxiously
awaiting the issuance of the final rule,
the provisions of the final rule for quiet
PO 00000
Frm 00029

zone-related administrative matters will
become effective 30 days after
publication of the final rule. Therefore,
public authorities will be permitted to
provide quiet zone-related
documentation 30 days after the final
rule is published.
Issued in Washington, DC, on March 14,
