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 with 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. 

Saint Louis Metro [Docket Number 

FRA–2007–27207] 

Saint Louis Metro (Metro), the 

provider of bus, paratransit, and light 

rail transit in the St. Louis Metropolitan 

Area, seeks a permanent waiver of 

compliance from sections of Title 49 of 

the CFR for operation of its MetroLink 

Light Rail over two at-grade rail 

diamond crossings that constitute a 

‘‘limited connection’’ with the general 

railroad system. (See Statement of 

Agency Policy Concerning Jurisdiction 

Over the Safety of Railroad Passenger 

Operations and Waivers Related to 

Shared Use of the Tracks of the General 

Railroad System by Light Rail and 

Conventional Equipment, 65 FR 42529 

(July 10, 2000). See also Joint Statement 

of Agency Policy Concerning Shared 

Use of the Tracks of the General 

Railroad System by Conventional 

Railroads and Light Rail Transit 

Systems, 65 FR 42526 (July 10, 2000).) 

MetroLink consists of 44.8 miles of 

light rail tracks located in St. Louis 

County and the City of St. Louis, 

Missouri; and St. Clair County, Illinois, 

for the purpose of providing rapid 

transit operations within the St. Louis 

Metropolitan area. The MetroLink 

alignment is a double-track light rail 

alignment running at grade, above 

grade, below grade, and in tunnels with 

two-car consists. Revenue hours are 

from 3:45 a.m. to 1:15 a.m. daily. 

MetroLink currently crosses a single

existing freight railroad industry lead 

known as the Grand Freight Diamond, 

thus constituting a limited connection 

to the general railroad system. Freight 

movements are conducted by Metro’s 

contractor, Squaw Creek Southern 

Railroad, Inc., across this diamond 

crossing and are temporally separated, 

occurring only during MetroLink’s 

nonrevenue hours of 1:15 a.m. to 3:45 

a.m. 

For this limited connection, Metro 

seeks permanent waiver of compliance 

from the following Parts of 49 CFR: Part 

217—Railroad Operating Rules, Part 

219—Control of Alcohol and Drug Use, 

Part 220—Railroad Communications, 

Part 221—Rear End Marking Devices, 

Part 223—Safety Glazing Standards, Part 

238—Passenger Equipment Safety 

Standards, and Part 239—Passenger 

Emergency Preparedness. Metro offers 

that it is similarly governed by the 

System Safety Program Plan as required 

by the Federal Transit Administration 

(FTA) and administered by the Missouri 

Department of Transportation (Momot). 

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

Petition Docket Number 2007–27207)

Facility, Room PL–401 (Plaza Level),

action is taken. Comments received after 

that date will be considered as far as 

practicable. All written communications
