input from the public on the proposed revisions to TS–R–1. Comments are being solicited only on the changes made between the published 2009 edition and the draft 2012 edition.

The draft 2012 edition and the 2009 version are available online in the public docket for this notice. To assist in comparing these two documents, the IAEA has prepared a table in which the original text (2009, as published) is compared with the proposed text (draft 2012 edition); the table may also be found online in the public docket for this notice. A redline/strikeout version of the 2012 draft showing the changes from the 2009 version is also available in the docket.

Any comments made should refer to the relevant paragraph number in the draft 2012 edition, and when appropriate, proposed alternative text.

Please note that to date, PHMSA has harmonized the U.S. domestic hazardous materials regulations in 49 CFR with the 1996 edition of TS–R–1, as revised in 2000 [Docket No. RSPA– 99–6283 (HM–230)]. A rulemaking is in development which will be issued in draft for public review at a later date to harmonize with the 2009 edition of TS– R–1. PHMSA is not currently considering adoption of the 2012 amendments. However, subsequent domestic compatibility rulemakings by both NRC and DOT will be considered after IAEA final publication of the 2012 revised TS–R–1. II. Public Participation

**Notice of Intent To Prepare an Environmental Assessment and**  **Request for Public Scoping Comments for the Air Tour Management Plan**  **Program at Petrified Forest National Park** 

**AGENCY :**  Federal Aviation Administration (FAA).

**ACTION :**  Notice of Intent To Prepare an Environmental Assessment and To request public scoping comments.

**SUMMARY :**  The FAA, with National Park Service (NPS) as a cooperating agency, has initiated development of an Air Tour Management Plan (ATMP) for Petrified Forest National Park (Petrified Forest), pursuant to the National Parks Air Tour Management Act of 2000 (Pub. L. 106–181) and its implementing regulations (14 CFR Part 136, Subpart B, National Parks Air Tour Management). The objective of the ATMP is to develop acceptable and effective measures to mitigate or prevent the significant adverse impacts, if any, of commercial air tour operations on the natural resources, cultural resources, and visitor experiences of a national park unit and any Tribal lands within or abutting the park. It should be noted that the ATMPhas no authorization over other non-airtour operations such as military and general aviation operations. In compliance with the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (NEPA) and FAA Order 1050.1E, an Environmental Assessment (EA) is being prepared.

In April 2010, the NPS and FAA held a two-day kickoff meeting at Petrified Forest; minutes may be found at: http://parkplanning.nps.gov/ projectHome.cfm?parkId=88 &projectId=30802.

The purpose of the kickoff meeting was for the FAA and NPS to have the opportunity to share information regarding environmental and other issues to consider in the development of an ATMP. Materials presented at the meeting included information on: park resources; the acoustical environment at Petrified Forest; current and historical air tour operations; and representative air tour flight paths. In addition, Petrified Forest staff provided information regarding sensitive park resources, Tribal concerns, and tourism patterns.

The FAA and NPS are now inviting the public, agencies, Tribes, and other interested parties to provide comments, suggestions, and input on the scope of issues to be addressed in the environmental process.

**DATES :**  By this notice, the FAA is requesting comments on the scope of the EA for the ATMP at Petrified Forest. Comments must be submitted by August 2, 2010.

**Federal Railroad Administration**

**Petition for Waiver of Compliance**

In accordance with part 211 of title 49 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), notice is hereby given that the Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) received a request for a waiver of compliance with certain requirements of its safety standards. The individual petition is described below, including the party seeking relief, the regulatory provisions involved, the nature of the relief being requested, and the petitioner’s arguments in favor of relief. Port Authority Trans-Hudson Corporation

[Waiver Petition Docket Number FRA–2010– 0104]

The Port Authority Trans-Hudson Corporation (PATH) seeks a waiver of compliance with the Locomotive Safety Standards, 49 CFR 229.129(b)(2), which requires that the sound level of horns of locomotives manufactured before September 18, 2006, be tested before June 24, 2010.

PATH operates a closed interstate rail transit system between New York and New Jersey, with no public highway-rail grade crossings. PATH is in the process of replacing its entire fleet of electric MU rail cars used in passenger service. To date, 122 new cars have been delivered and are in compliance with horn testing requirements for locomotives built after September 18, 2006. PATH continues to operate 223 electric MU railcars manufactured prior to the September 18, 2006, date that require testing. PATH will scrap all but 52 of the cars built prior to September 18, 2006, over the next 18 months. The 52 remaining cars will be used as work cars (maintenance of way). PATH states that due to the size of the railroad, there is only one location (Harrison Yard) that meets the criteria of the horn testing requirements. This a storage yard, and to utilize this facility, would cause PATH to hold 4 storage tracks out of service which would cripple PATH’s operation. PATH requests a waiver from the horn testing requirements for the cars that were manufactured prior to September 18, 2006, that will be scraped within the next 18 months and a reasonable extension of time period to test the 52 cars they will retain for work service.
