Download as PDF mstockstill on DSK30JT082PROD with NOTICES 35054 Federal Register / Vol. 82, No. 143 / Thursday, July 27, 2017 / Notices configurations that may create a similar safe haven outside the clearance area but less than four feet from the near running rail. While the regulation only focuses on tunnel niches, Amtrak believes there are niches outside of tunnels that provide the same level of safety, and railroads have a long history of safely utilizing such areas. Amtrak’s request for relief is intended to provide for the opportunity to use additional locations of safety within the New York Penn Station, which, are locations of safety due to the physical configuration of the track and station structures. Should FRA grant the waiver request, Amtrak will designate specific areas that are slightly less than four feet from the near running rail but nonetheless provide a place of safety as a ‘‘clearance area’’ and Amtrak will comply with the following conditions prior to designating any space as a clearance area: 1. Ensure there is adequate sight distance at that location to permit a roadway worker or lone worker to occupy that place of safety at least 15 seconds prior to the arrival of a train or other on-track equipment; 2. Identify clearance areas with clearly visible signage; 3. Direct a roadway-worker-in-charge to visually inspect each applicable clearance area to ensure it is suitable for use as a place of safety; 4. Ensure the use of such clearance areas is discussed in the job briefing prior to any roadway worker fouling the track; 5. Ensure it has and procedures that state the roadway-worker-in-charge or lone worker has the absolute right to designate an alternate place of safety as a location other than, or to establish working limits. 6. Ensure it has and procedures that state any roadway worker has the right to a good faith challenge of the use of a clearance area if there is a reasonable belief the area does not provide an adequate level of protection; 7. Ensure it has and procedures that state all affected roadway workers will receive instruction prior to the use of clearance areas. 8. Amtrak will publish and distribute the above procedures in Amtrak’s Roadway Worker Bulletins, and address them in a training blitz or job safety briefing, and document them in Amtrak’s Total Efficiency and Safety Tests System (T.E.S.T.S) using Test 198. In addition, Amtrak will immediately add the procedures to the annual training curriculum at the affected locations. VerDate Sep<11>2014 19:17 Jul 26, 2017 Jkt 241001 Amtrak believes the requested relief is completely safe and will greatly improve the efficiency of roadway maintenance in one of the busiest stations in North America.
