SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background: The data for the

Highway Routing ICR is collected under 

authority of 49 U.S.C. 5112 and 5125. 

Specifically, 49 U.S.C. 5112(c) requires 

that the Secretary, in coordination with 

the States, ‘‘shall update and publish 

periodically a list of currently effective 

hazardous material highway route 

designations.’’ 

Under 49 CFR 397.73, the FMCSA 

Administrator has the authority to 

request that each State and Indian tribe, 

through its routing agency, provide 

information identifying hazardous 

materials routing designations within 

their jurisdictions. That information is 

collected and consolidated by FMCSA 

and published annually, in whole or as 

updates, in the Federal Register. 

Title: Transportation of Hazardous 

Materials, Highway Routing. 

OMB Control Number: 2126–0014. 

Type of Request: Extension of a 

currently-approved information 

collection. 

Respondents: The reporting burden is 

shared by 50 States, the District of 

Columbia, Puerto Rico, American 

Samoa, Guam, the Commonwealth of 

the Northern Mariana Islands and the 

U.S. Virgin Islands. 

Frequency: Annually. 

Estimated Average Burden per 

Response: 15 minutes. 

Estimated Total Annual Burden 

Hours: 13 hours [51 annual respondents 

× 1 response × 15 minutes per response/ 

60 minutes per response = 12.75 hours, 

rounded to 13 hours]. 

Public Comments Invited: You are 

asked to comment on any aspect of this 

information collection, including: 

(1) Whether the proposed collection is 

necessary for the performance of 

FMCSA’s functions; (2) the accuracy of 

the estimated burden; (3) ways for the 

FMCSA to enhance the quality, 

usefulness, and clarity of the collected 

information; and (4) ways that the 

burden could be minimized without 

reducing the quality of the collected 

information. The Agency will 

summarize or include your comments in

AGENCY: Surface Transportation Board. 

ACTION: Notice of Board Action. 

SUMMARY: Subject to environmental 

mitigation conditions, the Board is 

granting an exemption under 49 U.S.C. 

10502 from the prior approval 

requirements of 49 U.S.C. 10901 for 

U. S. Rail Corporation (U. S. Rail) to 

construct and operate a line of railroad 

at a 28-acre site to be known as the 

Brookhaven Rail Terminal (BRT), in 

Brookhaven, Suffolk County, N.Y. 

According to U. S. Rail, the total length 

of the track to be constructed is about 

18,000 feet. The purpose of the

of aggregate annually from sources in 

upstate New York to Sills Road Realty, 

LLC (Sills), the owner of the underlying 

property, and its affiliates and related 

companies on Long Island. The project 

is intended to reduce Sills’ reliance on 

truck transport of aggregate through the 

New York City metropolitan region. 

DATES: The exemption will be effective 

on September 20, 2010. Petitions to 

reconsider must be filed on September 

20, 2010.

DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION 

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) has 

received a request for a waiver of 

compliance from 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. 

Railtown 1897 State Historic Park 

[Waiver Petition Docket Number FRA–2010– 

0092] 

The Railtown 1897 State Historic Park 

(Railtown), an excursion train operating 

in Jamestown, California, seeks a waiver 

of compliance from the Safety Glazing 

Standards of 49 CFR 223.11 

Requirements for existing locomotives. 

Specifically, Railtown has petitioned 

FRA for a waiver for four diesel 

locomotives: Former U.S. Navy 

locomotives 613 and 612, built by Alco 

in 1953; former U.S. Army locomotive 

1265, built by Baldwin/Whitcomb in 

1952; and former U.S. Army locomotive 

1638, built by General Electric in 1952. 

Railtown operates weekends only 

from April through March on three 

miles of track in a lightly settled area 

with a fifteen mph speed restriction. 

The locomotives are primarily used in 

yard switching service and on rare 

occasions provide back-up service for 

Railtown’s historic steam locomotives. 

Additionally, Railtown states the 

combined annual operation of their 

diesel locomotives is less than 200 

hours per year, and that in 26 years of 

operation as a state historic park, they 

have not sustained any incidents of 

breakage on their locomotives. Railtown 

estimates glazing costs to be in excess of 

$20,000.00, and believes it is not 

economically justified to replace the 

glass in light of the ages of the 

locomotives, low risk of vandalism and 

the extremely low hours of operation. 

Interested parties are invited to 

participate in these proceedings by 

submitting written views, data, or 

comments. FRA does not anticipate 

scheduling a public hearing in 

connection with these proceedings since 

the facts do not appear to warrant a 

hearing. If any interested party desires 

an opportunity for oral comment, they 

should notify FRA, in writing, before 

the end of the comment period and 

specify the basis for their request. 

All communications concerning these 

proceedings should identify the 

appropriate docket number (e.g., Waiver 

Petition Docket Number FRA–2010– 

0092) and may be submitted by any of 

the following methods: 

• Web site: http:// 

www.regulations.gov. Follow the online 

instructions for submitting comments.

Avenue, SE., Room W12–140,

and 5 p.m., Monday through Friday,

Communications received within 45 

days of the date of this notice will be 

considered by FRA before final action is 

taken. Comments received after that 

date will be considered as far as 

practicable. All written communications 

concerning these proceedings are 

available for examination during regular 

business hours (9 a.m.–5 p.m.) at the
