SUMMARY:
20:09 Apr 09, 2015
NHTSA is
hosting a public workshop to discuss
options to improve vehicle safety recall
completion rates.
NHTSA marked a record year in 2014,
with the highest number of vehicle
recalls in more than three decades. Last
year alone, there were 803 vehicle
recalls involving 63.9 million vehicles,
including two of the largest vehicle
recalls in history.
The sessions will focus on public
education of the recall process;
customer and dealership outreach; parts
production challenges and recall repair
rates. The input gathered by the working
groups will be used to identify best
practices and new approaches for
improving the recall process.
Workshop Procedures. NHTSA will
conduct the workshop informally. Thus,
technical rules of evidence will not
apply. The workshop will include brief
presentations and panel discussions
with representatives from NHTSA,
automobile manufacturers, suppliers,
and dealers. There will be opportunities
for attendees to ask questions of NHTSA
and of the panelists.
To attend this workshop, please
register with NHTSA by the date
specified under the DATES section above
by sending the required information to
the person listed in the FOR FURTHER
INFORMATION CONTACT section.
Registration is necessary for security
and space limitation reasons. After

workshop day logistics (i.e., directions
to the building, parking
accommodations, etc.).
For security purposes, photo
identification is required to enter the
Department of Transportation building.
To allow sufficient time to clear security

[Docket No. FD 35908]
Nittany and Bald Eagle Railroad
Company—Trackage Rights
Exemption—Norfolk Southern Railway
Company
Norfolk Southern Railway Company
(NSR), pursuant to a written trackage
rights agreement (Agreement) 1 dated
February 1, 2015, has agreed to grant
non-exclusive, overhead trackage rights
to Nittany and Bald Eagle Railroad
Company (N&BE) over NSR’s line of
railroad between milepost BR 194.2 at
Lock Haven, Pa., and milepost BR 139.2
at Driftwood, Pa., a distance of 55
miles.2
The transaction may be consummated
on or after April 26, 2015, the effective
date of the exemption (30 days after the
verified notice of exemption was filed).
The purpose of the trackage rights is to
allow N&BE to operate bridge train
service for certain seasonal traffic.
As a condition to this exemption, any
employees affected by the acquisition of
the trackage rights will be protected by
the conditions imposed in Norfolk &
Western Railway—Trackage Rights—
Burlington Northern, Inc., 354 I.C.C. 605
(1978), as modified in Mendocino Coast
Railway, Inc.—Lease & Operate—
California Western Railroad, 360 I.C.C.
653 (1980), and any employees affected
by the discontinuance of those trackage
rights will be protected by the
conditions set out in Oregon Short Line
Railroad—Abandonment Portion
Goshen Branch Between Firth &
Ammon, in Bingham & Bonneville
Counties, Idaho, 360 I.C.C. 91 (1979).
This notice is filed under 49 CFR
1180.2(d)(7). If the notice contains false
or misleading information, the
exemption is void ab initio. Petitions to
revoke the exemption under 49 U.S.C.
10502(d) may be filed at any time. The
filing of a petition to revoke will not
automatically stay the effectiveness of
the exemption. Petitions for stay must
be filed no later than April 17, 2015 (at
least 7 days before the exemption
becomes effective).
1 A redacted version of the Agreement between
NSR and N&BE was filed with the notice of
exemption. N&BE simultaneously filed a motion for
protective order to protect the confidential and
commercially sensitive information contained in
the unredacted version of the Agreement, which
N&BE submitted under seal in this proceeding. That
motion will be addressed in a separate decision.
2 N&BE was previously authorized non-exclusive,
temporary, overhead trackage rights over the 55
miles of rail line that expired on December 30,
2014. See Nittany & Bald Eagle R.R.—Temp.
Trackage Rights Exemption—Norfolk S. Ry., FD
35793, (STB served Feb. 7, 2014).
