Hazardous Materials: Notice of Applications for New Special Permits, 90213-90214 [2024-26443]

Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 89, No. 220 / Thursday, November 14, 2024 / Notices turnout with a special EN60E1A1 switch point section. The proper operation of the switch is essential for the continued, safe operations of DTC vehicles. DTC previously sought and received a Buy America waiver from FTA for two replacement switches from Delta Railroad Construction, Inc. (Delta) on April 19, 2016 (81 FR 23077). On January 19, 2023, DTC issued a request for proposals (RFP) (No. 1–19– 2023, for DTC Sub-Package 7), which includes the special track switch described above, and received two responses. Both bidders certified that the switches they could provide would not comply with the FTA Buy America requirements. Following the RFP, DTC submitted a nonavailability waiver request to FTA for the non-compliant switch components. 49 U.S.C. 5323(j)(2) and 49 CFR 661.7(c)(2). The product that requires a waiver is one pair of EN60E1A1 switch point rails and all appurtenances associated with its installation; four transition head machined rails for connection to frog and turnout rails; and one set of switch point rods consisting of two drive rods and two detector rods. FTA estimates the total cost of goods subject to this proposed waiver is less than $300,000. Proposed Waiver and Request for Comments On September 9, 2024, FTA published a Notice of Proposed Buy America Waiver and Request for Comment, (89 FR 73185) for the special trackwork switches DTC seeks to procure under Sub-Package 7. The proposed waiver would apply only to the switch described above. The waiver would not apply to any other products or any other projects besides Sub-Package 7. Response to Comments FTA received no comments in response to its proposed waiver. Finding on Waiver For the reasons stated above, FTA is granting the waiver as proposed. FTA waives one pair of EN60E1A1 switch point rails and all appurtenances associated with its installation; four transition head machined rails for connection to frog and turnout rails; and one set of switch point rods consisting of two drive rods and two detector rods to be procured under Sub-Package 7. The waiver is effective from the effective date of this notice through the period of performance and closeout of FTA’s financial assistance for the project, which is estimated to be March 30, 2030.
