relevant rules and material 

procedures.30

As described above, the proposed rule 

changes would amend the EPN Rules to 

reflect existing FICC practices. 

Specifically, the proposed changes 

would (1) include an EPN User’s 

ongoing reporting obligations, (2) define 

circumstances under which FICC may 

determine an EPN User’s compliance 

with the EPN Rules, and (3) make 

corrections to the EPN Rules for clarity. 

As such, the Commission believes these 

proposed changes to codify and correct 

FICC’s existing practices in the EPN 

Rules would assist in publicly 

disclosing all relevant and material 

procedures regarding the EPN Service. 

Therefore, the Commission finds that 

the proposal is designed to provide for 

publicly disclosing all relevant rules 

and material procedures, consistent 

Rule 17Ad–22(e)(23)(i) under the Act. 

III. Conclusion 

On the basis of the foregoing, the 

Commission finds that the proposal is 

consistent with the requirements of the 

Act, in particular the requirements of 

Section 17A of the Act 31 and the rules 

and regulations thereunder. 

It is therefore ordered, pursuant to 

Section 19(b)(2) of the Act, that 

proposed rule change SR–FICC–2018– 

005 be, and hereby is, approved.32

For the Commission, by the Division of 

Trading and Markets, pursuant to delegated 

authority.33

SURFACE TRANSPORTATION BOARD 

[Docket No. FD 36215] 

West Memphis Base Railroad L.L.C.— 

Lease, Operation, and Future Purchase 

Exemption—City of West Memphis, 

Ark. 

West Memphis Base Railroad, L.L.C. 

(WMBR), a noncarrier, has filed a 

verified notice of exemption under 49 

CFR 1150.31 to lease from the City of 

West Memphis, Ark. (the City) and to 

operate approximately 2.25 miles of rail 

line, extending from milepost 353.281 to 

milepost 355.539 in West Memphis, 

Crittenden County, Ark. (the Line), 

pursuant to an agreement entered into 

with the City.1 In addition, the 

agreement gives WMBR an option to 

purchase the Line, which WMBR 

anticipates that it will be in a position 

to exercise in October of this year. 

WMBR states that the proposed 

transaction does not involve, and the 

agreement between WMBR and the City 

does not include, any provision or 

agreement that would limit future 

interchange with a third-party 

connecting carrier. 

WMBR certifies that its projected 

annual revenues as a result of this 

transaction will not exceed those that 

would qualify it as a Class III rail carrier 

and that the projected annual revenues 

will not exceed $5 million. 

The transaction (including the option 

to purchase) may be consummated on or 

after September 27, 2018, the effective 

date of the exemption (30 days after the 

verified notice of exemption was filed). 

If the verified notice contains false or 

misleading information, the exemption 

is void ab initio. Petitions to revoke the 

exemption under 49 U.S.C. 10502(d) 

may be filed at any time. The filing of 

a petition to revoke will not 

automatically stay the effectiveness of 

the exemption. Petitions for stay must 

be filed no later than September 20, 

2018 (at least seven days before the 

exemption becomes effective). 

An original and 10 copies of all 

pleadings, referring to Docket No. FD 

36215, must be filed with the Surface 

Transportation Board, 395 E Street SW, 

Washington, DC 20423–0001. In 

addition, one copy of each pleading 

must be served on Bradon J. Smith, 

Fletcher & Sippel LLC, 29 North Wacker 

Drive, Suite 800, Chicago, IL 60606. 

According to WMBR, this action is 

categorically excluded from 

environmental review under 49 CFR 

1105.6(c).

available on our website at www.stb.gov.

[Docket Number FRA–2008–0070] 

Petition for Waiver of Compliance 

In accordance with part 211 of Title 

49 of the Code of Federal Regulations 

(CFR), this provides the public notice 

that by letter dated September 7, 2018, 

Harsco Track Technologies (HTT) 

petitioned the Federal Railroad

of a waiver of compliance from certain 

provisions of the Federal railroad safety 

regulations contained at 49 CFR part 

214, subpart D. FRA assigned the 

petition Docket Number FRA–2008– 

0070. 

HTT seeks an extension of the 

existing relief from 49 CFR 214.505, 

Required environmental control and 

protection systems for new on-track 

roadway maintenance machine with 

enclosed cabs, to permit continued use 

of a remote controlled on-track roadway 

maintenance machine without the 

requirement of an enclosed cab, 

operable heating and air conditioning 

system, and positive pressurized 

ventilation system. In support of its 

petition, HTT states the drone track 

tamper has been in operation since 2008 

and no injuries or safety issues have 

been reported to HTT. 

A copy of the petition, as well as any 

written communications concerning the 

petition, is available for review online at 

www.regulations.gov and in person at
