Petition for Waiver of Compliance
Under part 211 of Title 49 Code of
Federal Regulations (CFR), this
document provides the public notice
that on August 19, 2020, OmniTRAX
Inc., on behalf of the Illinois Railway,
LLC (IR), 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
229, Railroad Locomotive Safety
Standards. FRA assigned the petition
Docket Number FRA–2020–0069.
Specifically, OmniTRAX seeks relief
from 49 CFR 229.23(a), Periodic
inspections, which requires periodic
inspections be made where adequate
facilities are available, and at each
periodic inspection, a locomotive must
be positioned so that a person may
safely inspect the entire underneath
portion of the locomotive. OmniTRAX
contends that although two of IR’s three
operational sections do not have access
to a shop or pit, all tests have been
performed within the required time
