Petition for Waiver of Compliance
In accordance with Part 211 of Title
49 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR),
this document provides the public
notice that by a document dated January
24, 2013, the Black Hills Central
Railroad (BHC) has petitioned the
Federal Railroad Administration (FRA)
for a waiver of compliance from certain
provisions of the Federal railroad safety
regulations contained at 49 CFR part
230, Steam Locomotive Inspection and
Maintenance Standards. FRA assigned
the petition Docket Number FRA–2013–
0009.
Located in South Dakota, BHC is a
privately owned railroad that has
operated on 10 miles of scenic right-ofway between Hill City and Keystone
since 1957. The line was originally a
branch off of the Chicago, Burlington
and Quincy Railroad’s ‘‘Highline,’’
constructed in 1900, that operated from
Edgemont to Deadwood. BHC presently
operates as a seasonal, tourist operation
and no longer operates as part of the
general railroad system of
transportation.
BHC currently has three oil-burning,
Baldwin steam locomotives; one EMD

mstockstill on DSK6TPTVN1PROD with NOTICES
22026
Federal Register / Vol. 78, No. 71 / Friday, April 12, 2013 / Notices
GP9; and a Whitcomb center cab switch
engine in service. BHC requests a waiver
for Locomotive BHC 7 (BHC 7), a 2–6–
2 tender-type steam locomotive built in
1919. The locomotive originally burned
coal but was converted to oil in 1923.
It operates at 190 psi boiler pressure.
BHC 7 is non-super-heated;
consequently, it is not operated on a
regular basis due to its fuel
consumption. It has accumulated 29
days of service since the last flexible
staybolt and cap inspection in March
2008. The current 1472 service-day
inspection (SDI) expires in April 2015.
BHC requests relief from 49 CFR
230.16(a)(2), with respect to flexible
staybolt and cap inspection and 49 CFR
230.41, Flexible staybolts with caps.
BHC requests an additional 2 years to
the prescribed 5-year period to perform
the flexible staybolt and cap inspection,
thereby extending the inspection period
to a total of 7 years. BHC will perform
the annual inspection pursuant to 49
CFR 230.16. Granting the waiver would
allow BHC 7 to undergo an annual
inspection without the added burden of
removing the locomotive cab, boiler
jacketing, and attendant insulation,
which is required for the flexible
staybolt and cap inspection.
Additionally, the flexible staybolt and
cap inspection would coincide with the
next 1472 SDI. BHC believes that due to
the limited days of service for BHC 7,
the railroad’s high standard of safety
would not be compromised.
A copy of the petition, as well as any
written communications concerning the
petition, is available for review online at
www.regulations.gov and in person at
the U.S. Department of Transportation’s
Docket Operations Facility, 1200 New
Jersey Avenue SE., W12–140,
Washington, DC 20590. The Docket
Operations Facility is open from 9 a.m.
to 5 p.m., Monday through Friday,
except Federal Holidays.
Interested parties are invited to
participate in these proceedings by
submitting written views, data, or
comments. FRA does not anticipate
scheduling a public hearing in
connection with these proceedings since
the facts do not appear to warrant a
hearing. If any interested party desires
an opportunity for oral comment, they
should notify FRA, in writing, before
the end of the comment period and
specify the basis for their request.
