          - [Docket Number FRA-2006-25764] 

                    On September 26, 2006, the Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) published a notice in the                     **Federal Register**                     (71 FR 56217) announcing the Union Pacific Railroad Company's (UP) request for a waiver of compliance from certain provisions of Title 49 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Part 232,                     *Brake System Safety Standards for Freight and Other Non-passenger Trains and Equipment,*                     and 49 CFR Part 215,                     *Railroad Freight Car Safety Standards,*                     for trains received in interchange from the Ferrocarriles Nationales de Mexico Railroad at the Calexico, California, border crossing. Subsequently, on November 17, 2006, FRA published a notice in the                     **Federal Register**                     (71 FR 67011) announcing that UP had amended its original petition. Specifically, UP sought approval to postpone performing Class I brake tests and freight car safety standards inspections until trains arrive at El                           ( print page 14640)                        Centro, California (a distance of approximately 10.1 miles).                 

                    FRA received comments from interested parties requesting a public hearing on the issue and FRA subsequently scheduled a public hearing for March 29, 2007 in the                     **Federal Register**                     on March 5, 2007 (72 FR 9831). At the same time, FRA extended the public comment period in the proceeding to April 13, 2007.                 

By letters dated March 13, 2007, March 15, 2007, and March 19, 2007, the interested parties withdrew their requests for a public hearing. 

                    Accordingly, the public hearing scheduled for March 29, 2007, in El Centro, California, is hereby canceled. The comment period will remain open until April 13, 2007, as previously announced.
