RIN 2130-AA75
Technical Amendments to the Track Safety Standards
AGENCY: Federal Railroad Administration (FRA), Department of
Transportation (DOT).
ACTION: Final rule; corrections.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Federal Railroad Administration published in the Federal
Register of June 22, 1998 (63 FR 33992), a final rule to revise the
Track Safety Standards contained in 49 CFR part 213. On August 28,
1998, FRA published a notice of corrections to correct several
inadvertent errors which appeared in the final rule (63 FR 45959). This
correction notice corrects additional errors since found in the final
rule.
DATES: Effective on October 8, 1998.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Allison H. MacDowell, Office of Safety
Assurance and Compliance, Federal Railroad Administration, 400 Seventh
Street, SW., Mail Stop 25, Washington, DC 20590 (telephone: 202-493-

Administration, 400 Seventh Street, SW., Mail Stop 10, Washington, DC

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: FRA published a final rule in the Federal
Register of June 22, 1998, (63 FR 33992), which, effective September
21, 1998, replaces the Track Safety Standards in 49 CFR part 213. The
final rule, however, contained several inadvertent errors which were
corrected in a notice published in the Federal Register August 28, 1998
(63 FR 45959). The purpose of this notice is to correct two additional
errors discovered in the final rule after publication of the August 28
notice.
Sec. 213.57 [Corrected]
In the final rule, make the following corrections:
On page 34033, remove the first sentence of Sec. 213.57(g)(4), and
replace with the following sentence: ``The track owner or railroad
operates an instrumented car having dynamic response characteristics
that are representative of other equipment assigned to service or a
portable device that monitors on-board instrumentation on trains over
the curves in the identified track segment at the revenue speed profile
at a frequency of at least once every 90-day period with not less than
30 days interval between inspections.''
Sec. 213.345 [Corrected]
On page 34051, in Sec. 213.345(d), remove ``Sec. 213.333(k)'' and
replace with ``Sec. 213.333(l)''
Dated: October 5, 1998.
S. Mark Lindsey,
Chief Counsel.
