Petition for Waiver of Compliance
Under part 211 of Title 49 of the Code
of Federal Regulations (CFR), this
provides the public notice that on April
18, 2018, the Port Authority TransHudson Corporation (PATH) 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 214. FRA assigned the
petition docket number FRA–2018–
0041.
PATH is requesting relief from the
definition of ‘‘fouling a track’’ found in
49 CFR 214.7 at certain locations within
PATH’s tunnel system if certain
conditions are met. PATH seeks the
waiver to allow tunnel bench walls to be
considered a ‘‘place of safety’’ under
§ 214.329, Train Approach Warning, for
the safety and efficiency of roadway
maintenance procedures at that those
locations. If approved, when train
approach warning or foul time is used
as the method of protection, roadway
workers may move to a previously
arranged place of safety designated as a
‘‘Clearance Area.’’ Due to track and
physical structure configurations, the
designated ‘‘Clearance Area’’ can be less
than the required four feet from the near
running rail, yet still provides a place of
safety, protecting roadway workers from
the risk of being struck by moving trains
or on-track equipment. PATH states
safety will be improved by reducing the
distance roadway workers must walk to
reach a compliant place of safety upon

receiving warning of an approaching
train. PATH also contends roadway
maintenance procedures will be more
efficient by increasing the number of
clearing locations, thereby reducing
time spent moving to and from places of
safety.
PATH is a rapid transit system, with
13.8 route miles, of which 7.4 miles are
composed of an underground tunnel
system that operates between the states
of New York and New Jersey. The
current tunnel system was built between
1873 and 1901. As such, the physical
structure and track configurations
within the tunnel system provide many
locations where it is physically
impossible to clear outside four feet of
the near rail. PATH explains that the
historical use and safety record of bench
walls as a place of clearance for close to
half a century without incident show
that, under certain conditions, they can
be used as a place of safety within the
four-foot fouling envelope.

written communications concerning the
petition, is available for review online at

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 13, 2018, Ritron, Inc.
(Ritron) petitioned the Federal Railroad
Administration (FRA) for a waiver of
compliance from certain provisions of
the Federal railroad safety regulations
contained at 49 CFR 232.409(d). FRA
assigned the petition Docket Number
FRA–2009–0015.
Ritron is seeking to extend its waiver
of compliance from 49 CFR 232.409(d)
for three models of its two-way
transceiver radios used for the link
modules inside Head-of-Train (HOT)
and End-of-Train (EOT) devices. These
three models are DTX–445, DTX–454,
and DTX–460. These models use a
master reference oscillator to determine
the frequency stability of the
transmitted signal. The actual
transmitted signal is phase-locked to
this master oscillator by a phase-locked
loop. This self-calibrating procedure
eliminates the need for yearly recalibrations. Ritron states that if the
radio is operating, it is within
specifications. Ritron originally received
a waiver of compliance on July 21, 2010.
Ritron received an updated waiver, to
add another radio to that included in
the original request, on September 4,
2013.
