VI. Statutory and Executive Order
Reviews
This final rule establishes tolerances
under section 408(d) of FFDCA in
response to a petition submitted to the
Agency. The Office of Management and
Budget (OMB) has exempted these types
of actions from review under Executive
Order 12866, entitled Regulatory
Planning and Review (58 FR 51735,
October 4, 1993). Because this final rule
has been exempted from review under
Executive Order 12866, this final rule is
not subject to Executive Order 13211,
entitled Actions Concerning Regulations
That Significantly Affect Energy Supply,
Distribution, or Use (66 FR 28355, May
22, 2001) or Executive Order 13045,
entitled Protection of Children from
Environmental Health Risks and Safety
Risks (62 FR 19885, April 23, 1997).
This final rule does not contain any
information collections subject to OMB
approval under the Paperwork
Reduction Act (PRA), 44 U.S.C. 3501 et
seq., nor does it require any special
considerations under Executive Order
12898, entitled Federal Actions to
Address Environmental Justice in
Minority Populations and Low-Income
Populations (59 FR 7629, February 16,
1994).
Since tolerances and exemptions that
are established on the basis of a petition
under section 408(d) of FFDCA, such as
the tolerance in this final rule, do not
require the issuance of a proposed rule,
the requirements of the Regulatory
Flexibility Act (RFA) (5 U.S.C. 601 et
seq.) do not apply.
This final rule directly regulates
growers, food processors, food handlers,
and food retailers, not States or tribes,
nor does this action alter the
relationships or distribution of power
and responsibilities established by
Congress in the preemption provisions
of section 408(n)(4) of FFDCA. As such,
the Agency has determined that this
action will not have a substantial direct
effect on States or tribal governments,
on the relationship between the national
government and the States or tribal
governments, or on the distribution of
power and responsibilities among the
various levels of government or between
the Federal Government and Indian
tribes. Thus, the Agency has determined
that Executive Order 13132, entitled
Federalism (64 FR 43255, August 10,
1999) and Executive Order 13175,
entitled Consultation and Coordination
with Indian Tribal Governments (65 FR
67249, November 9, 2000) do not apply
to this final rule. In addition, this final
rule does not impose any enforceable

duty or contain any unfunded mandate
as described under Title II of the
Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995
(UMRA) (Pub. L. 104–4).
This action does not involve any
technical standards that would require
Agency consideration of voluntary
consensus standards pursuant to section
12(d) of the National Technology
Transfer and Advancement Act of 1995
(NTTAA), Public Law 104–113, section
12(d) (15 U.S.C. 272 note).
VII. Congressional Review Act
The Congressional Review Act, 5
U.S.C. 801 et seq., generally provides
that before a rule may take effect, the
agency promulgating the rule must
submit a rule report to each House of
the Congress and to the Comptroller
General of the United States. EPA will
submit a report containing this rule and
other required information to the U.S.
Senate, the U.S. House of
Representatives, and the Comptroller
General of the United States prior to
publication of this final rule in the
Federal Register. This final rule is not
a ‘‘major rule’’ as defined by 5 U.S.C.
804(2).

Regulatory Information
This final rule is being issued without
prior notice and opportunity to
comment pursuant to authority under
the Administrative Procedures Act, 5
U.S.C. 553(b)(3)(B). The rule
amendments adopted in this Order are
nonsubstantive, editorial revisions of
the Commission’s rules pursuant to
§ 0.231 (b) of the Commission’s rules,
and merely delete obsolete rule
provisions. The Commission finds good
cause to conclude that notice and
comment procedures are unnecessary
and would not serve any useful
purpose.
Paperwork Reduction Act Analysis

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
SUMMARY:
mstockstill on DSK4VPTVN1PROD with RULES
Background
On August 26, 2010, FRA issued a
Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM)
as a first step to the agency’s
promulgation of concrete crosstie
regulations per the Congressional
mandate contained in Section 403(d), of
the Rail Safety Improvement Act of 2008
(Pub. L. 110–432, Division A) (RSIA).
See 75 FR 52,490. On April 1, 2011,
following consideration of written
comments received in response to the
NPRM, FRA published a final rule
mandating specific requirements for
effective concrete crossties, for rail
fastening systems connected to concrete
crossties, and for automated inspections
of track constructed with concrete

crossties. See 76 FR 18,073. FRA
received two petitions for
reconsideration in response to the final
rule.
On May 5, 2011, the International
Brotherhood of Teamsters, Brotherhood
of Maintenance of Way Employes
Division (BMWED) filed a petition for
reconsideration (BMWED Petition) of
the final rule and on May 27, 2011, the
Association of American Railroads
(AAR) filed a petition for
reconsideration (AAR Petition) of the
final rule. In order to provide sufficient
time to fully consider both Petitions,
FRA delayed the effective date of the
final rule until October 1, 2011. See 76
FR 34,890 (June 15, 2011).
The specific issues raised by these
petitioners and FRA’s responses to their
petitions, are discussed in detail below
in the ‘‘Section-by-Section Analysis’’
portion of the preamble. The Section-bySection analysis also contains a detailed
discussion of each provision of the final
rule which FRA has amended or
clarified. The amendments contained in
this document generally clarify
requirements currently contained in the
final rule or allow for greater flexibility
in complying with the rule, and are
within the scope of the issues and
options discussed, considered, or raised
in the NPRM.
Section-by-Section Analysis
Amendments to 49 CFR Part 213
Section 213.109
Crossties
AAR Petition: Visibility of Prestressing
Material
The final rule provides that concrete
crossties shall not be ‘‘broken through or
deteriorated to the extent that
prestressing material is visible.’’ 49 CFR
213.109(d)(1). AAR requests that FRA
amend 49 CFR 213.109(d)(1) to state,
‘‘broken through or deteriorated to the
extent outer prestressing strands are no
longer in tension.’’ AAR Petition at 3–
4. In proposing such language, AAR
asserts that FRA is inconsistent with the
specifications in 49 CFR 213.335(d)(1)
for Class 6 track. See AAR Petition at 3.
AAR argues that ‘‘FRA’s concern is
whether the prestressing material is in
tension,’’ as demonstrated by the
discussion in the final rule. AAR
Petition at 3.
FRA declines to adopt AAR’s
recommendation to modify the language
of 49 CFR 213.109(d)(1). The intent of
49 CFR 213.109(d)(1) is to ensure that
concrete crossties with reinforcing
strands that have lost their bond to the
concrete are considered defective. This
intent is clearly described in the
preamble to the final rule. See 76 FR
PO 00000
Frm 00039
Fmt 4700
Sfmt 4700
55819
18,077–18,079 (Apr. 1, 2011). While a
concrete crosstie that is ‘‘broken through
or deteriorated to the extent outer
prestressing strands are no longer in
tension’’ would be defective, the
standard that AAR proposes is difficult
to quantify in the field, as an inspector
would have difficulty knowing if the
prestressing strands are no longer in
tension. AAR’s proposal would add a
qualifier to the standard, making the
regulation more subjective and more
difficult to enforce.
AAR suggests using the same standard
for § 213.109(d)(1) as specified in
§ 213.335(d), for Class 6 track. Section
213.335(d) provides that the crosstie
cannot be ‘‘so deteriorated that the
prestress strands are ineffective or
withdrawn into the tie at one end and
the tie exhibits structural cracks in the
rail seat or in the gage of track.’’ FRA
believes that the standard adopted for
lower speeds of track in § 213.109(d)(1)
improves upon § 213.335(d) for lower
classes of track by more clearly defining
what it means to be ‘‘ineffective’’ and
explaining how to find ‘‘structural
cracks.’’ FRA notes that while further
study would be needed to determine
whether this clarifying language would
also be appropriate in higher classes of
track, any potential amendment to
§ 213.335(d) would be outside the scope
of this proceeding, as modifications to
the language in § 213.335(d) was neither
raised in the NPRM, nor discussed in
the final rule. However, FRA would be
willing to address the language in
§ 213.335(d) in future updates to part
213.
AAR further states that FRA’s position
to reject the proposed phrase
‘‘completely broken through’’ for
§ 213.109 is unconvincing. See AAR
Petition at 3. Contrary to this concern,
FRA’s intent was to simply provide
consistency in the language used for
wooden crossties and does not find it
necessary to introduce ambiguity by
adopting differing language without
sufficient justification.
Although AAR is concerned with the
situations where prestressing material is
visible and yet not defective, FRA
clearly explained in the preamble to the
final rule in response to AAR’s
comment that FRA is not concerned
with prestressing material being visible
due to a wheel impact or due to the
manufacturing process. See 76 FR
18,077–18,079 (Apr. 1, 2011). FRA
thoroughly explained its intent in the
preamble that by saying the material is
‘‘visible’’ it does not mean ‘‘a concrete
tie being simply chipped due to wheel
impact as opposed to actual
deterioration.’’ 76 FR 18,077 (Apr. 1,
2011). FRA also clarified that it is ‘‘not

Regulatory Information
This final rule is being issued without prior notice and
opportunity to comment pursuant to authority under the Administrative
Procedures Act, 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(3)(B). The rule amendments adopted in
this Order are nonsubstantive, editorial revisions of the Commission's
rules pursuant to Sec. 0.231 (b) of the Commission's rules, and merely
delete obsolete rule provisions. The Commission finds good cause to
conclude that notice and comment procedures are unnecessary and would
not serve any useful purpose.
Paperwork Reduction Act Analysis
This document contains no new or modified information collection
requirements. The rules contained herein have been analyzed with
respect to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, Public Law 104-13, 44
U.S.C. 3501, et seq., and found to contain no new or modified form,
information collection, and/or recordkeeping, labeling, disclosure, or
record retention requirements, and will not increase or decrease burden
hours imposed on the public. In addition, therefore, this Order does
not contain any new or modified ``information collection burden for
small business concerns with fewer than 25 employees,'' pursuant to the
Small Business Paperwork Relief Act of 2002, Public Law 107-198, 44
U.S.C. 3506(c)(4). The Commission will send a copy of the Order in a
report to Congress and the Government Accountability Office pursuant to
the Congressional Review Act.
Regulatory Flexibility Act
Because this Order is being adopted without notice and comment, the
Regulatory Flexibility Act, 5 U.S.C. 601, et seq., does not apply.
Summary of the Order
1. In this Order, we make several nonsubstantive, editorial
revisions to parts 1, 73 and 76 of the Commission's rules. We make
