Petition for Waiver of Compliance
In accordance with part 211 of Title
49 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR),
this provides the public notice that by
a document dated September 22, 2015,
the Peninsula Corridor Joint Powers
Board (JPB) has petitioned the Federal
Railroad Administration (FRA) for a
modification to its existing waiver of
compliance from certain provisions of
the Federal railroad safety regulations
contained at 49 CFR part 238. FRA
assigned the petition Docket Number
FRA–2009–0124.
JBP, located in San Carlos, CA, seeks
an amendment to its permanent waiver
of compliance from 49 CFR 238.203,
Static end strength, 238.205, Anticlimbing mechanism, and 238.207, Link
between coupling mechanism and car
body. JPB is considering purchasing
non-FRA-compliant electric multiple
unit (EMU) vehicles, constructed to
European safety standards, for its
Caltrain commuter rail service between
San Francisco and Gilroy, CA. JPB seeks
to amend two of the nine conditions
specified in FRA’s waiver decision letter
dated May 27, 2010.
Specifically, JPB requests that
Condition 1 (that EMUs that are the
subject of this waiver meet or exceed the
crashworthiness performance levels
identified and presented in the petition)
be modified to align with proposed rule
text for alternatively compliant Tier I
equipment developed through the
Railroad Safety Advisory Committee
and its Engineering Task Force.
Secondly, JPB requests removal of
Condition 7 (that JPB submit a
comprehensive temporal separation
plan to FRA for approval before the
EMUs are operated).
JPB states that the proposed rule text
does not require temporal separation
because trains built to these new rules
are considered as safe or safer in
collisions than trains built to current
Federal standards. In addition, JPB
states that it is currently implementing
Positive Train Control and new EMUs
will be compatible with the system,
thereby reducing the risk of an impact
between freight and passenger trains.
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
(DOT) Docket Operations Facility, 1200
New Jersey Avenue SE., W12–140,
Washington, DC 20590. The Docket
