train employee to initiate an on-duty period for 6 consecutive days 
followed by 24 hours off duty. BSR states that it interchanges cars

schedule.'' The relief helps ``mitigate [any] problems for [its] 
customers'' involving scheduling by ``providing customer service on an 
overtime basis.'' BSR also states that all work covered by this waiver 
will be performed during daylight hours. BSR included in its petition a
