BILLING CODE 4910–13–P 

DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION 

Federal Railroad Administration 

[Docket Number FRA–2000–8089] 

Petition for Waivers of Compliance 

In accordance with Title 49 Code of 

Federal Regulations (CFR) Sections 

211.9 and 211.41, notice is hereby given 

that the Federal Railroad 

Administration (FRA) has received a 

request for a modification of an existing 

waiver of compliance with certain 

requirements of the Federal safety laws 

and regulations. The petition is 

described below, including the party 

seeking relief, the regulatory provisions 

involved, and the nature of the relief 

being requested, and the petitioner’s 

arguments in favor of relief. Canadian 

National Railway Company (CN) seeks 

to modify an existing waiver in Docket 

Number FRA–2000–8089 on behalf of 

itself and its U.S. affiliates. 

CN is North America’s fifth largest 

railroad; with 20,600 route miles and 

approximately 22,000 employees in 

Canada and the United States. It 

operates the largest rail network in 

Canada and the only transcontinental 

network in North America. Within the 

last 15 years, CN has carried out 

extremely successful integrations with 

the Illinois Central, Wisconsin Central, 

Great Lakes Transportation, and Elgin, 

Joliet & Eastern rail systems. CN seeks 

to modify an existing waiver in which 

FRA has waived compliance with 49 

CFR part 231, which specifies the 

number, location, and dimensional 

specifications for handholds, ladders, 

sill steps, uncoupling levers, and 

handbrakes; and which regulates 

drawbar height, for CN’s use of 

RoadRailer equipment. 

The original CN waiver to operate 

RoadRailer equipment was issued by 

FRA on May 23, 2001, and was 

extended on August 17, 2011. 

Subsequent to the most recent extension 

of the current waiver in force, CN 

received a request from a customer to 

extend the number of RoadRailer units 

handled by its operation. Basically, CN 

is requesting a modification to the 

current waiver, which would grant CN 

the same operational capability and 

limitations as provided to Norfolk 

Southern Railway to operate RoadRailer 

equipment by FRA in Docket Number 

FRA–2002–11896. Since having the 

waiver granted in 2001, CN has operated 

RoadRailer equipment without incident. 

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 numbers, and may 

be submitted by any of the following 

methods: 

• Web Site: http:// 

www.regulations.gov. Follow the online 

instructions for submitting comments. 

• Fax: 202–493–2251. 

• Mail: Docket Operations Facility, 

U.S. Department of Transportation, 1200 

New Jersey Avenue, SE., W12–140, 

Washington, DC 20590. 

• Hand Delivery: 1200 New Jersey 

Avenue, SE., Room W12–140, 

Washington, DC 20590, between 9 a.m. 

and 5 p.m., Monday through Friday, 

except Federal Holidays. 

Communications received by 

November 10, 2011 will be considered 

by FRA before final action is taken. 

Comments received after that date will 

be considered as far as practicable. 

Anyone is able to search the 

electronic form of any written 

communications and comments 

received into any of our dockets by the 

name of the individual submitting the 

document (or signing the document, if 

submitted on behalf of an association, 

business, labor union, etc.). You may
