ACTION: Notice of NOI withdrawal. AGENCY: The FHWA is issuing this notice to advise the public of withdrawal of the NOI to prepare an EIS published in the Federal Register Vol. 71, No. 128, July 5, 2006 for a proposed combined highway and transit project on 1–285 in Cobb, Fulton, and DeKalb Counties, Georgia. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Jennifer Giersch, Environmental Coordinator, Federal Highway Administration, 61 Forsyth Street, Suite 17T100, Atlanta, Georgia 30303, Telephone: (404) 562–3653; email: JenniferGiersch@fhwa.dot.gov. Eric Duff, State Environmental Administrator, Georgia Department of Transportation, One Georgia Center, 16th Floor, Atlanta, Georgia 30308, Telephone: (404) 631–1071; email: eduff@dot.ga.gov. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The FHWA in cooperation with the Georgia Department of Transportation (GDOT), published a NOII on July 5, 2006 to prepare an EIS for a proposed combined highway and transit project along 1–285 from I75 in Cobb County to 1–85 in DeKalb County, a length of approximately 17 miles. FHWA hereby advises the public of the rescission of this NOI. This change occurred because part of the project corridor, the interchange of 1–285 and GA 400, advanced as an independent project with its own purpose and need. Additionally, GDOT’s Major Mobility Investment Program refocused the purpose and need for improvements along 1–285. FHWA and GDOT anticipate the issuance of a new NOI for the proposed construction of express lanes along the project corridor. Any future Federal-aided action within this corridor will comply with the environmental review requirements of the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) (42 U.S.C. 4321 et seq.), FHWA implementing environmental regulations (23 CFR part 771) and related authorities, as appropriate. Comments and questions concerning this action should be directed to FHWA at the address provided above. SUMMARY: Authority: 23 U.S.C. 315; 49 CFR 1.48.

FRA assigned the petition Docket Number FRA–2019–0055. Specifically, BRC requests relief from the requirement to replace signage under §§ 234.309 and 234.311, pending the successful conclusion of two 49 CFR part 236 block signal applications (BSAP) (see Docket Numbers FRA– 2019–0039 and FRA–2019–0010). Access to the subject track is either over Bridge 710 on Canadian National Railway’s (CN) Lakefront Subdivision or via access from BRC’s Kenton Line. BSAPs were filed by both BRC and CN based on lack of traffic and upgrades that will render this trackage entirely inaccessible for train traffic. There is currently no rail service on this track, and no plan to restore service. This single industrial track includes no sidings or auxiliary tracks and runs parallel to Harbor Avenue and South Lake Shore Drive.

FRA assigned the petition Docket Number FRA–2019– 0046. Specifically, NS seeks a waiver of compliance from 49 CFR 225.25(h) which states, in part, that except as provided in paragraph (h)(15), a listing of all injuries and occupational illnesses reported to FRA as having occurred at an establishment shall be posted in a conspicuous location at that establishment, within 30 days after the expiration of the month during which the injuries and illnesses occurred, if the establishment has been in continual operation for a minimum of 90 calendar days. NS requests a waiver regarding the actual posting of the monthly listing of employee reportable injuries, occupational illnesses, and fatalities, as reported to FRA that have occurred during the past 12-month period at each establishment. In lieu of physically posting a ‘‘paper’’ copy of the monthly listing at each establishment, NS has developed an electronic version that would be available to its employees by accessing this information on computer terminals located at company facilities and personal devices. NS would notify employees of the electronic establishment log, including instructions for accessing it, by posting information on NS’s operations web portals and by their supervisors in job safety briefings and other safety contacts. Where appropriate, the log would be distributed as a paper handout and may be requested from the employee’s supervisor at any time.
