Federal Railroad Administration
[Docket Number FRA–2019–0038]
Petition for Waiver of Compliance
Under part 211 of Title 49 Code of
Federal Regulations (CFR), this
document provides the public notice
VerDate Sep<11>2014
22:43 May 14, 2019
Jkt 247001
that by a document dated April 9, 2019,
the Port Authority Trans Hudson
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
240, subpart B, Component Elements of
the Certification Process, and subpart D,
Administration of the Certification
Programs. FRA assigned the petition
Docket Number FRA–2019–0038.
Specifically, PATH requests relief
from the requirement of performing one
unannounced test each calendar year for
each locomotive engineer as required by
49 CFR 240.129(e)(1) and 49 CFR
240.303(a), (c). PATH explains that with
the implementation of Positive Train
Control (PTC) on its system, it is
impossible for an engineer to fail any of
the allowable unannounced tests
because PTC will automatically perform
the desired function with or without
intervention from the engineer.
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
