carrier’s passenger weighted fare as a percent 

of passenger weighted SIFL fares. 

WASHINGTON AREA AIRPORTS’ PERCENT OF SIFL, LARGEST CARRIER SIFL AND PERCENT OF TRAFFIC

% of WAS Apt % SIFL Lgest Car % of Traffic % SIFL 

BWI ...................................................................................... 41 65 WN 48 65 

DCA ...................................................................................... 35 101 US 33 124 

IAD ....................................................................................... 23 77 UA 47 90 

Note: If US Airways is removed from the DCA percent of SIFL calculation the airport average SIFL would decline to 88% of SIFL. 

As can be seen, the relationship of actual 

fares to the SIFL fare benchmark is very 

different at the three Washington area 

airports. Actual fares are 65% of SIFL at BWI, 

77% at IAD and 101% at DCA. 

The comparable statistics for the NYC 

airports are summarized in the following 

table. 

NEW YORK AREA AIRPORTS PERCENT OF SIFL, LARGEST CARRIER SIFL AND PERCENT OF TRAFFIC

JFK ....................................................................................... 34 57 B6 46 57 

LGA ...................................................................................... 35 82 DL 30 89 

Note: If Delta is removed from the DCA percent of SIFL calculation the airport average SIFL would decline to 79% of SIFL. 

The results show that actual fares are 71% 

of SIFL at EWR, 57% of SIFL at JFK, and 82% 

of SIFL at LGA. Delta Air Lines is the largest 

carrier with 30% of traffic and a weighted 

average fare of 89% of SIFL. We noted that 

if Delta is excluded from LGA figures the 

airport percent of SIFL would decline to 79% 

of SIFL.

Federal Railroad Administration 

Request for Expedited Certification 

and Type Approval of Amtrak 

Advanced Civil Speed Enforcement 

System (ACSES) 

In accordance with Part 211 of Title 

49 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), 

notice is hereby given that the Federal 

Railroad Administration (FRA) received 

a request for expedited certification and 

type approval of the Amtrak ACSES. 

ACSES has been deployed on the 

Northeast Corridor since December 

2000, in accordance with the FRA Final 

Order of Particular Applicability issued 

on July 22, 1998 [FRA Docket No. 87– 

2, Notice No.7]. The request is described 

below, including the party seeking 

certification and type approval of 

ACSES, the regulatory provisions 

involved, the nature of the request, and 

the petitioner’s arguments in favor of 

the request. 

National Railroad Passenger 

Corporation 

[Docket Number FRA–2010–0029] 

The National Railroad Passenger 

Corporation (Amtrak) is submitting a 

request for expedited certification and 

type approval of ACSES, presently 

installed on the Northeast Corridor, in 

fulfillment of the requirements of and 

compliance with the final rule for 

Positive Train Control systems per 49 

CFR part 236, subpart I (specifically, 

Section 236.1031). The documentation 

supporting this request demonstrates 

that ACSES reliably performs the 

functionalities required by Sections 

236.1005 and 236.1007, and therefore 

conforms to Subpart I. Also, ACSES has 

been recognized by FRA as being 

designed and implemented by Amtrak 

since December 2000, in full accordance 

with the FRA Final Order of Particular 

Applicability issued in July 1998. These 

conditions constitute a legitimate basis 

for expedited certification and type 

approval of ACSES.

require the establishment of a formal
