cannot obtain or renew non-resident
CDLs.
Rotel requests FMCSA to allow its 22
bus drivers to operate these 11 buses
without a CDL for a period of two years.
It believes these drivers possess the
knowledge and skills to ensure a level
of safety that is equivalent to, or greater
than, the level of safety that would be
obtained by complying with the U.S.
requirement for a CDL. A copy of Rotel’s
application for exemption is available
for review in the docket for this notice.
Request for Comments
In accordance with 49 U.S.C.
31315(b)(4) and 31136(e), FMCSA
requests public comment on Rotel’s
application for exemption from the
FMCSRs. The Agency will consider all
comments received by close of business
on April 21, 2008. Comments will be
available for examination in the docket
at the location listed under the
ADDRESSES section of this notice. The
Agency will consider to the extent
practicable comments received in the
public docket after the closing date of
the comment period.

(Sub–No. 9]
Union Pacific Railroad Company—
Temporary Trackage Rights
Exemption—BNSF Railway Company
Surface Transportation Board.
Partial Revocation of
Exemption.
AGENCY:
ACTION:
SUMMARY: The Board, under 49 U.S.C.
10502, revokes the class exemption as it
pertains to the modified trackage rights
described in STB Finance Docket No.
34554 (Sub–No. 8) 1 to permit the
mstockstill on PROD1PC66 with NOTICES
1 On
December 21, 2007, Union Pacific Railway
Company (UP) concurrently filed a verified notice
of exemption under the Board’s class exemption
procedures at 49 CFR 1180.2(d)(7). The notice
covered the agreement by BNSF Railway Company
(BNSF) to extend the expiration date of the local
trackage rights granted to UP over BNSF’s line of
railroad between BNSF milepost 579.3 near Mill
Creek, OK, and BNSF milepost 631.1 near Joe
Junction, TX, a distance of approximately 51 miles.
UP submits that the trackage rights are only
temporary rights, but, because they are ‘‘local’’
rather than ‘‘overhead’’ rights, they do not qualify
for the Board’s class exemption for temporary
trackage rights under 49 CFR 1180.2(d)(8). See
Union Pacific Railroad Company—Temporary
Trackage Rights Exemption—BNSF Railway
Company, STB Finance Docket No. 34554 (Sub–No.
8) (STB served Jan. 4, 2008).

trackage rights to expire on or about
December 31, 2008, in accordance with
the agreement of the parties,2 subject to
the employee protective conditions set
forth in Oregon Short Line R. Co.—
Abandonment—Goshen, 360 I.C.C. 91
(1979).
2 The trackage rights were originally granted in
Union Pacific Railroad Company—Temporary
Trackage Rights Exemption—The Burlington
Northern and Santa Fe Railway Company, STB
Finance Docket No. 34554 (STB served Oct. 7,
2004). Subsequently, the parties filed notices of
exemption several times based on their agreements
to extend expiration dates of the same trackage
rights. See STB Finance Docket No. 34554 (Sub–No.
2) (served February 11, 2005); STB Finance Docket
No. 34554 (Sub–No. 4) (served March 3, 2006); and
STB Finance Docket No. 34554 (Sub–No. 6) (served
January 12, 2007). Because the original and
subsequent trackage rights notices were filed under
the class exemption at 49 CFR 1180.2(d)(7), under
which trackage rights normally remain effective
indefinitely, in each instance the Board granted
partial revocation of the class exemption to permit
the authorized trackage rights to expire. See STB
Finance Docket No. 34554 (Sub–No. 1) (decision
served November 24, 2004); STB Finance Docket
No. 34554 (Sub–No. 3) (decision served March 25,
2005); STB Finance Docket No. 34554 (Sub–No. 5)
(decision served March 23, 2006); and STB Finance
Docket No. 34554 (Sub–No. 7) (decision served
March 13, 2007). At the time of the extension
authorized in STB Finance Docket No. 34554 (Sub–
No. 6), the parties anticipated that the authority to
allow the rights to expire would be exercised by
December 31, 2007. However, the parties filed on
December 21, 2007 in STB Finance Docket No.
34554 (Sub–No. 8) their most recent notice of
exemption so that the trackage rights could be
extended to December 31, 2008, and in STB
Finance Docket No. 34554 (Sub–No. 9) their latest
petition to partially revoke the class exemption to
permit expiration, which we are addressing here.
