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) 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. 

Big West Oil, LLC 

[Waiver Petition Docket Number FRA–2007–

0025] 

The Big West Oil, LLC (FLYJ), a Class 

III railroad, seeks a waiver of 

compliance from the requirements of 49 

CFR part 223.11 Requirements for 

existing locomotives for locomotive 

number 1. Specifically, FLYJ petitioned 

FRA for a waiver for a 600 horsepower 

diesel electric locomotive, model SW–

600, built by the Electro Motive Division 

of General Motors in 1962. This 

locomotive is primarily used for 

industrial switching within an enclosed 

facility adjacent to the Big West Oil 

Refinery in Salt Lake City, Utah. The 

locomotive is stored during nonoperational hours within a secure area 

of the refinery. 

Locomotive number 1 is used on a 

limited basis for industrial switching 

over 3.5 miles of privately owned track. 

There are two (2) highway/rail crossings 

at grade through the industrial property 

with no overpasses or bridges. The 

railroad operates Monday to Friday, an 

average of 4 hours per day, during 

daylight hours, with a 10 mph speed 

restriction through the industrial 

complex. There have been no reports of 

glazing vandalism along this right-ofway since the operation of this 

locomotive began in 1999. 

The petitioner believes that this 

locomotive can be safely operated 

throughout the industrial complex with 

the current non-compliant safety-type 

glazing. The cost to FLYJ for installation 

of all new window frames and 

compliant FRA Types I & II glazing is 

significant with only a marginal 

increase in safety due to the low speed. 

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 number (e.g., Waiver

a request for a waiver of compliance

BNSF Railway Company 

[Docket Number FRA–2007–28812] 

BNSF Railway Company (BNSF) seeks 

a waiver of compliance with certain 

requirements of 49 CFR part 232—Brake 

System Safety Standards for Freight and 

Other Non-Passenger Trains and 

Equipment; End-of Train Devices, and 

49 CFR part 215—Railroad Freight Car 

Safety Standards. Specifically, BNSF 

seeks relief to permit trains received at 

the U.S./Mexico border at Eagle Pass, 

Texas (Eagle Pass), from the 

Ferrocarriles de Mexico, to move from 

the interchange point without 

performing the regulatory tests and 

inspections specified in CFR part 215 

and § 232.205(a)(1) at that location. 

BNSF proposes moving the trains from 

the border at Milepost (MP) 34 on the 

Union Pacific Railroad Company’s Eagle 

Pass subdivision, to the Ryan’s Ruin 

Horan Siding at MP 20, a distance of 14 

miles where required FRA inspections 

will be performed. BNSF claims that 

granting the waiver would expedite 

train movements and avoid blockages of 

crossings in Eagle Pass.
