[Docket Number FRA-2011-0015]


Petition for Extension of Waiver of Compliance

    Under part 211 of title 49 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), this 
document provides the public notice that on April 7, 2022, Drake 
Switching Companies (DSC) petitioned the Federal Railroad 
Administration (FRA) for an extension of a waiver of compliance from 
certain provisions of the Federal railroad safety regulations contained 
at 49 CFR part 223, Safety Glazing Standards--Locomotives, Passenger 
Cars and Cabooses. The relevant FRA Docket Number is FRA-2011-0015.
    Specifically, DSC requests relief from 49 CFR part 223 for one 
Shuttlewagon, DSC 601, for operations not exceeding 10 miles per hour 
over 4 miles of track owned by Drake Cement LLC in Arizona. In support 
of its petition, DSC states that there have been no accidents, 
incidents, or injuries to employees involving window glazing on the car 
since the waiver was granted.
    A copy of the petition, as well as any written communications 
concerning the petition, is available for review online at 
www.regulations.gov.
    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

desires an opportunity for oral comment and a public hearing, 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 and may be submitted at https://www.regulations.gov. Follow the online instructions for submitting

    Communications received by June 27, 2022 will be considered by FRA 
before final action is taken. Comments received after that date will be 
considered if practicable.
    Anyone can search the electronic form of any written communications 
and comments received into any of our dockets by the name of the
