[FR Doc. 2018–09121 Filed 4–30–18; 8:45 am] BILLING CODE 4910–06–P DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION Federal Railroad Administration [Docket Number FRA–2013–0081] amozie on DSK30RV082PROD with NOTICES Petition for Waiver of Compliance Under part 211 of Title 49 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), this document provides the public notice that on April 4, 2018, the Association of American Railroads (AAR) petitioned the Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) for a Special Approval of certain industry standards in accordance with the Federal railroad safety regulations contained at 49 CFR 231.33, Procedure for special approval of existing industry safety appliance standards, and 49 CFR 231.35, Procedure for modification of an approved industry safety appliance standard for new railcar construction. FRA assigned the petition Docket Number FRA–2013–0081. AAR, on behalf of itself and its member railroads, submitted a petition for special approval of existing industry safety appliance standards contained in 49 CFR part 231, Railroad Safety Appliance Standards, and minor edits to VerDate Sep<11>2014 18:12 Apr 30, 2018 Jkt 244001 AAR Standard S–2044 and its appendices that have been previously approved by the FRA. Specifically, AAR requests approval of the standards and specifications delineated in AAR Standard S–2044, Appendices F4, Safety Appliances for Side-Dump Cars, and J1, Safety Appliances for RailCompatible Vehicles. Appendices F4 and J1 were not included in the version of AAR Standard S–2044 approved March 29, 2016, and are entirely new. AAR also seeks approval of minor clarifying edits to previously-approved AAR Standard S–2044 and its appendices. AAR Standard S–2044 and its appendices have been developed to serve as requirements for safety appliance arrangements. The revised standard and its appendices are to be applied to new railroad freight cars, if approved by FRA. AAR Standard S–2044 was established by the AAR Safety Appliance Task Force (Task Force), which was created by AAR’s Equipment Engineering Committee (EEC) to develop industry standards for safety appliance arrangements on modern railcar types not explicitly covered by 49 CFR part 231. The Task Force consists of representatives from Class I railroads, labor unions, car builders, private car owners, and shippers, along with ergonomics experts and government representatives from FRA and Transport Canada who participate as non-voting members. The Task Force drafted a base safety appliance standard for all car types, plus industry safety appliance standards for specific car types. These industry standards have been adopted by AAR’s Engineering Equipment Committee and, with FRA’s approval, will serve as the core criteria for safety appliance arrangements on railcars that are more specialized in design.
