SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Motor 

Vehicle Theft Law Enforcement Act of 

1984 (Theft Act) was implemented to 

enhance detection and prosecution of 

motor vehicle theft (Pub. L. 98–547). 

The Theft Act added a new Title VI to 

the Motor Vehicle Information and Cost 

Savings Act, which required the 

Secretary of Transportation to issue a 

theft prevention standard for identifying 

major parts of certain high-theft lines of 

passenger cars. The Act also addressed 

several other actions to reduce motor 

vehicle theft, such as increased criminal 

penalties for those who traffic in stolen 

vehicles and parts, curtailment of the 

exportation of stolen motor vehicles and 

off-highway mobile equipment, 

establishment of penalties for 

dismantling vehicles for the purpose of 

trafficking in stolen parts and 

development of ways to encourage 

decreases in premiums charged to 

consumers for motor vehicle theft 

insurance. 

This notice announces publication by 

NHTSA of the annual insurer report on 

motor vehicle theft for the 2006 

reporting year. Section 33112(h) of Title 

49 of the U.S. Code, requires this 

information to be compiled periodically 

and published by the agency in a form 

that will be helpful to the public, the 

law enforcement community and 

Congress. As required by section 

33112(h), this report focuses on the 

assessment of information on theft and 

recovery of motor vehicles, 

comprehensive insurance coverage and 

actions taken by insurers to reduce 

thefts for the 2006 reporting period. 

Section 33112 of Title 49 requires 

subject insurers or designated agents to 

report annually to the agency on theft 

and recovery of vehicles, on rating rules 

and plans used by insurers to reduce 

premiums due to a reduction in motor 

vehicle thefts, and on actions taken by 

insurers to assist in deterring thefts. 

Rental and leasing companies also are 

required to provide annual theft reports 

to the agency. In accordance with 49 

CFR 544.5, each insurer, rental and 

leasing company to which this 

regulation applies must submit a report 

annually not later than October 25, 

beginning with the calendar year for 

which they are required to report. The 

report would contain information for 

the calendar year three years previous to 

the year in which the report is filed. The 

report that was due by October 26, 2009 

contains the required information for 

the 2006 calendar year. Interested 

persons may obtain a copy of individual 

insurer reports for CY 2006 by 

contacting the U.S. Department of 

Transportation, Docket Management, 

1200 New Jersey Avenue SE., West 

Building, Room W12–140 ground level, 

Washington, DC 20590–001. Requests 

should refer to Docket No. 2009–0050. 

The annual insurer reports provided 

under section 33112 are intended to aid 

in implementing the Theft Act and 

fulfilling the Department’s requirements 

to report to the public the results of the 

insurer reports. The first annual insurer 

report, referred to as the Section 612 

Report on Motor Vehicle Theft, was 

prepared by the agency and issued in 

December 1987. The report included 

theft and recovery data by vehicle type, 

make, line and model which were 

tabulated by insurance companies rental 

and leasing companies. Comprehensive 

premium information for each of the 

reporting insurance companies was also 

included. This report, the twentieth, 

discloses the same subject information 

and follows the same reporting format.

[Docket No. FD 32607 (Sub-No. 4)] 

Kiamichi Railroad L.L.C.—Trackage 

Rights Exemption—WFEC Railroad 

Company 

Pursuant to a written joint facility 

agreement dated January 1, 2012, WFEC 

Railroad Company (WFECR) has agreed 

to grant limited nonexclusive overhead 

trackage rights to Kiamichi Railroad 

L.L.C. (KRR), over its entire line (the 

Line), between milepost 0.0 at Western 

Farmers Electric Cooperative, Inc.’s 

(Western Farmers) Hugo electric 

generating station and milepost 14.98, 

where WFECR connects to the line of 

the Texas, Oklahoma & Eastern Railroad 

Company, in Choctaw and McCurtain 

Counties, Okla.1

The transaction is scheduled to be 

consummated on May 2, 2012, the 

effective date of the exemption (30 days 

after the exemption was filed). 

The purpose of the transaction is to 

permit KRR to provide rail service 

between the Hugo electric generating 

station and other Western Farmers’ 

facilities located on or adjacent to the 

Line, or which may locate on or 

adjacent to the Line in the future, and 

connections to the lines of KRR and 

other rail carriers.2

This notice is filed under 49 CFR 

1180.2(d)(7). If the 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 by April 25, 2012 (at least 7 

days before the exemption becomes 

effective). 

Under 49 U.S.C. 10502(g), the Board 

may not use its exemption authority to 

relieve a rail carrier of its statutory 

obligation to protect the interests of its 

employees. Section 11326(c), however, 

does not provide for labor protection for 

transactions under 11324 and 11325 

that involve only Class III rail carriers. 

Accordingly, the Board may not impose 

labor protective conditions here, 

because all of the carriers involved are 

Class III carriers.
