          - [Docket Number FRA-2010-0056]

In accordance with Part 211 of Title 49 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), this document provides the public notice that by a document dated August 29, 2014, BNSF Railway (BNSF) has petitioned for approval of its Positive Train Control Safety Plan (PTCSP) submitted pursuant to the Federal railroad safety regulations contained in 49 CFR part 236, Subpart I, Positive Train Control Systems. FRA assigned the petition Docket Number FRA-2010-0056.

                    BNSF seeks approval of its PTCSP and system certification for its implementation of the Interoperable Electronic Train Management System (I-ETMS) in accordance with 49 CFR 236.1009,                     *Procedural requirements.*                     BNSF asserts that the PTCSP demonstrates that I-ETMS has been designed as a vital overlay PTC system in compliance with 49 CFR 236.1015,                     *PTC Safety Plan content requirements and PTC System Certification.*                     The PTCSP describes the BNSF I-ETMS implementation and the associated I-ETMS safety processes; safety analyses; and test, validation, and verification processes used during development of I-ETMS. The PTCSP also contains BNSF's operational and support requirements and procedures.
