          - [Docket Number FRA-2022-0030]

      ( print page 28864)    
Under part 211 of title 49 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), this document provides the public notice that on March 31, 2022, Arcade and Attica Railroad Corporation (ARA) petitioned the Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) for 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. FRA assigned the petition Docket Number FRA-2022-0030.

Specifically, ARA requests a waiver from the glazing regulations in 49 CFR part 223 for one locomotive, #113. ARA states that the locomotive is equipped with one-quarter-inch safety glass, consisting of two glass plates with a laminating material. In support of its request, ARA states that it is a short line historic railroad and freight carrier serving two customers on 15 miles of track at slow speeds, installing custom glazing would be cost prohibitive, and it reports no vandalism or window breakage issues in the past.

                    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 the facts do not appear to warrant a hearing. If any interested party 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                     *http://www.regulations.gov.*                     Follow the online instructions for submitting comments.                

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 individual submitting the comment (or signing the document, if submitted on behalf of an association, business, labor union, etc.). Under 5 U.S.C. 553(c), the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) solicits comments from the public to better inform its processes. DOT posts these comments, without edit, including any personal information the commenter provides, to                     *www.regulations.gov,*                     as described in the system of records notice (DOT/ALL-14 FDMS), which can be reviewed at                     *https://www.transportation.gov/​privacy.*                     See also                     *https://www.regulations.gov/​privacy-notice*                     for the privacy notice of                     *regulations.gov.*
