Federal Railroad Administration 

[Docket Number FRA–2006–24646] 

Union Pacific Railroad Company; 

Notice of Public Hearing and Extension 

of Comment Period 

The Union Pacific Railroad Company 

(UP) has petitioned the Federal Railroad 

Administration (FRA) seeking relief 

from the requirements of the Rules, 

Standards and Instructions found in 

Title 49 Code of Federal Regulations 

(CFR) Section 236.586, Daily or aftertrip test. Specifically, UP is seeking to 

change the administration of the first 

sentence in paragraph (a) from 

‘‘intervals of not more than 2 months’’

to ‘‘intervals of not more than 92 days’’

for all cab signal devices on locomotives 

operated by UP. This waiver application 

is identified as Docket Number FRA–

2006–24646. 

FRA issued a public notice seeking 

comments from interested parties. After 

examining the carrier’s proposal and the 

submitted letters of protest from 

interested parties, FRA has determined 

that a public hearing is necessary before 

a final decision will be made on this 

proposal. Accordingly, a public hearing 

is hereby set for 9 a.m. on Thursday, 

May 31, 2007, at the Holiday Inn 

Express Hotel & Suites, 300 Holiday 

Frontage Road, in North Platte, 

Nebraska 69101. Interested parties are 

invited to present oral statements at the 

hearing. 

The hearing will be informal and will 

be conducted by a representative 

designated by FRA in accordance with 

Rule 25 of the FRA Rules of Practice (49 

CFR Section 211.25). The hearing will 

be a non-adversary proceeding and, as 

such, there will be no cross-examination 

of persons presenting statements. The 

FRA representative will make an 

opening statement outlining the scope 

of the hearing. After all initial 

statements have been completed, 

persons wishing to make brief rebuttal 

statements will be given the opportunity 

to do so in the same order in which they 

made their initial statements. Any 

additional procedures, if necessary, will 

be announced at the hearing. 

FRA is also extending the comment 

period to June 10, 2007. If information 

received at the public hearing warrants 

the need to extend the comment period 

further, a separate notice will be 

published indicating such extension. 

All communications concerning these 

proceedings should identify the 

appropriate docket number (e.g.), 

Docket Number FRA–2006–24646) and 

must be submitted to the Docket Clerk, 

DOT Docket Management Facility, 

Room PL–401 (Plaza Level), 400 7th

SUMMARY: In accordance with the

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The OTS 

currently maintains nine Privacy Act 

systems of records. Notices describing 

these systems of records were most 

recently published at 70 FR 41085, July 

15, 2005. The OTS proposes to add two 

routine uses to each of the six systems 

identified above authorizing disclosures 

in connection with litigation, as follows. 

Information may be disclosed in civil, 

criminal, administrative or arbitration 

proceedings before a court, magistrate, 

administrative or arbitration tribunal in 

the course of pre-trial discovery, 

motions, trial, appellate review, or in 

settlement negotiations, when OTS, the 

Director of OTS, an OTS employee, the 

Department of Treasury, the Secretary of 

Treasury, or the United States is a party 

or has an interest in or is likely to be 

affected by such proceeding and an OTS 

attorney determines that the information 

is arguably relevant to that proceeding. 

To assure that the agency and its 

employees receive appropriate 

representation in legal proceedings, 

relevant information may be disclosed 

to the Department of Justice, private 

counsel, or an insurance carrier for the 

purpose of defending an action or 

seeking legal advice. 

In addition, OTS proposes to add two 

additional routine uses to one system 

identified above, OTS .012 Payroll/ 

Personnel Systems & Payroll Records, 

authorizing disclosure relating to 

garnishment orders, as follows: 

Information may be disclosed to respond to 

government authorities in connection with 

garnishment proceedings. Information may 

be disclosed to private creditors for the 

purpose of garnishment of wages of an 

employee if the debt has been reduced to a 

judgment. 

The report of the altered systems of 

records, as required by 5 U.S.C. 552a(r) of the 

Privacy Act, has been submitted to the 

Committee on Government Reform of the 

House of Representatives, the Committee on 

Homeland Security and Governmental 

Affairs of the Senate, and the Office of 

Management and Budget, pursuant to 

Appendix I to OMB Circular A–130, ‘‘Federal 

Agency Responsibilities for Maintaining 

Records About Individuals,’’ dated November 

30, 2000. 

The six proposed altered systems of 

records, described above, are published in 

their entirety below.
