TriMet contends because WES trains
will be sounding the bell, the ‘‘longlong-short-long’’ requirement of § 222.21
would be redundant, and should not be
required at these three crossings.
In November 2014, TriMet sought,
and in August 2015, FRA granted, five
years of regulatory relief from the
requirements of § 222.21 as described
above. The current petition seeks
permanent relief from these same
requirements.
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
the U.S. Department of Transportation’s
(DOT) Docket Operations Facility, 1200
New Jersey Ave. SE, W12–140,
Washington, DC 20590. The Docket
Operations Facility is open from 9 a.m.
to 5 p.m., Monday through Friday,
except Federal Holidays.
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.
