Federal Register / Vol. 84, No. 208 / Monday, October 28, 2019 / Notices
document provides the public notice
that on October 10, 2019, Dallas Area
Rapid Transit (DART) petitioned the
Federal Railroad Administration (FRA)
to extend its waiver of compliance from
certain provisions of the Federal
railroad safety regulations contained at
49 CFR parts 229 and 234. FRA assigned
the petition Docket Number FRA–2004–
20000.
Specifically, DART seeks an extension
of the terms and conditions of its
current waiver of compliance from the
provisions of 49 CFR 229.125,
Headlights and auxiliary lights, and 49
CFR 234.105, Activation failure. This
waiver was initially granted in 2005 and
extended in 2010 and 2015, to allow
operation of DART’s rail-fixed guideway
public transit lines that share a ‘‘limited
connection’’ with the general railroad
system, specifically with the Dallas
Garland and Northeastern Railroad.
DART’s petition states that no
modifications or changes have occurred
since the waiver was initially granted in
2005. The petition also states that DART
‘‘has no record of any accidents or
safety-related incidents that occurred in
these areas covered by the regulations
where these waivers are being
requested.’’
Interested parties are invited to
participate in these proceedings by
submitting written views, data, or
comments. FRA does not anticipate
scheduling a public hearing in
connection with these proceedings since
the facts do not appear to warrant a
hearing. If any interested parties desire
an opportunity for oral comment and a
public hearing, they should notify FRA,
in writing, before the end of the
comment period and specify the basis
for their request.
All communications concerning these
proceedings should identify the
appropriate docket number and may be

DEPARTMENT OF THE TREASURY
Fiscal Service
Bureau of the Fiscal Service
Fee Schedule for the Transfer of U.S.
Treasury Book-Entry Securities Held
on the Fedwire Securities Service
Bureau of the Fiscal Service,
Fiscal Service, Treasury.
ACTION: Notice.
AGENCY:
The Department of the
Treasury (Treasury) is announcing a
new fee schedule applicable to transfers
of U.S. Treasury book-entry securities
maintained on the Fedwire Securities
Service (Fedwire) that occur on or after
January 2, 2020.
DATES: Applicable January 2, 2020.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Brendan Griffiths, Bureau of the Fiscal
Service, 202–504–3550.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Treasury
has established a fee structure for the
transfer of Treasury book-entry
securities maintained on Fedwire.
Treasury reassesses this fee structure
periodically based on our review of the
latest book-entry costs and volumes.
For each Treasury securities transfer
or reversal sent or received on or after
January 2, 2020, the basic fee will
decrease from $0.90 to $0.75. The
Federal Reserve System also charges a
funds movement fee for each of these
transactions for the funds settlement
component of a Treasury securities
transfer.1 The surcharge for an off-line
Treasury book-entry securities transfer
will remain at $70.00. Off-line refers to
the sending and receiving of transfer
messages to or from a Federal Reserve
Bank by means other than on-line
access, such as by written, facsimile, or
telephone voice instruction. The basic
transfer fee assessed to both sends and
receives is reflective of costs associated
with the processing of securities
transfers. The off-line surcharge, which
is in addition to the basic fee and the
funds movement fee, reflects the
additional processing costs associated
with the manual processing of off-line
securities transfers.
Treasury does not charge a fee for
account maintenance, the stripping and
reconstitution of Treasury securities, the
wires associated with original issues, or
interest and redemption payments.
Treasury currently absorbs these costs.
The fees described in this notice
apply only to the transfer of Treasury
book-entry securities held on Fedwire.
Information concerning fees for bookentry transfers of Government Agency
securities, which are priced by the
Federal Reserve, is set out in a separate
Federal Register notice published by
the Federal Reserve.
The following is the Treasury fee
schedule that will take effect on January
2, 2020, for book-entry transfers on
Fedwire:
