SOURCE: 64 FR 62865, Nov. 17, 1999, unless otherwise noted. Subpart AGeneral 230.1 Purpose and scope. This

23、ot for ResaleNo reproduction or networking permitted without license from IHS-,-,-489 Federal Railroad Administration, DOT 230.3 1NOTE: As an example, where a locomotive has received a proper boiler inspection after September 25, 1995 pursuant to 230.10 and 230.11 of the regulations in effect prior
24、to January 18, 2000 but has not had its FRA Form No. 4 updated, the locomotive owner or operator may update and verify the FRA Form No. 4 for that locomotive, and submit a timely petition that requests retroactive credit for the boiler inspection. (See 49 CFR parts 200999, revised October 1, 1978.)
25、part does not restrict a railroad from adopting and enforcing additional or more stringent requirements not in-consistent with this part. 230.2 Applicability. (a) Except as provided in paragraph (b) of this section, this part applies to all railroads that operate steam loco-motives. (b) This part do
26、es not apply to: (1) A railroad with track gage of less than 24 inches; (2) A railroad that operates exclu-sively freight trains and does so only on track inside an installation that is not part of the general system of trans-portation; (3) Rapid transit operations in an urban area that are not conn
27、ected to the general system of transportation; or (4) A railroad that operates passenger trains and does so only on track inside an installation that is insular, i.e., its operations are limited to a separate en-clave in such a way that there is no reasonable expectation that the safety of the publi
28、cexcept a business guest, a licensee of the railroad or an affili-ated entity, or a trespasserwould be affected by the operation. An operation will not be considered insular if one or more of the following exists on its line: (i) A public highway-rail crossing that is in use; (ii) An at-grade rail c
29、rossing that is in use; (iii) A bridge over a public road or waters used for commercial navigation; or (iv) A common corridor with another railroad, i.e., its operations are con-ducted within 30 feet of those of any other railroad. (c) See appendix A of part 209 for a current statement of the FRAs p
30、olicy on its exercise of jurisdiction. 230.3 Implementation. Except as provided in paragraphs (a) through (c) of this section, the loco-motive owner and/or operator shall per-form a 1472 service day inspection that meets the requirements of 230.17 when the locomotives flues would be re-quired to be
31、removed pursuant to 230.10, of the regulations in effect prior to January 18, 2000. (See 49 CFR parts 200999, revised October 1, 1978) At the time the locomotive owner and/or operator completes this inspection, it must begin to comply with the rest of the provisions of this part. Up until such time,
32、 and except as provided in paragraphs (a) through (c) of this sec-tion, compliance with the regulations in effect prior to January 18, 2000 (See 49 CFR parts 200999, revised October 1, 1978) will constitute full compliance with this part. Any interested person may obtain the October 1, 1978 revision
33、 of 49 CFR parts 200999 by contacting the Federal Railroad Administration, Office of Chief Counsel, 1200 New Jersey Avenue, SE., Washington, DC 20590. (a) One year after January 18, 2000. The following sections of this part must be complied with by January 18, 2001: 230.7, 230.51, 230.57, 230.68, 23
34、0.70, 230.85, 230.87, 230.115, and 230.116. (b) Interim flue removal extensions. FRA will continue to consider requests for flue removal extensions under the provisions of 230.10 of the regulations in effect prior to January 18, 2000 (See 49 CFR parts 200999, revised October 1, 1978) until January 1
35、8, 2002. (c) Petition for special consideration. The locomotive owner or operator may petition FRA for special consideration of this parts implementation with re-spect to any locomotive that has either fully or partially satisfied the require-ments of 230.17 within the three (3) year period prior to
36、 September 25, 1998provided the locomotive is in full compliance with 230.17 by the time the petition is actually filed.1(1) Petition process. Petitions must be filed by January 18, 2001 and must be accompanied by all relevant docu-mentation to be considered, including a FRA Form No. 4 (see appendix
37、 C of this part) that has been calculated in ac-cordance with 230.17, and all records that demonstrate the number of days VerDate Mar2010 09:47 Dec 14, 2010 Jkt 220215 PO 00000 Frm 00499 Fmt 8010 Sfmt 8010 Y:SGML220215.XXX 220215jdjones on DSK8KYBLC1PROD with CFRProvided by IHSNot for ResaleNo repro
38、duction or networking permitted without license from IHS-,-,-490 49 CFR Ch. II (10110 Edition) 230.4 the locomotive has been in service. Based upon the documentation pro-vided, FRA will calculate the number of service days the locomotive has accrued and will notify the petitioner of the number of se
39、rvice days that re-main in the locomotives 1472 service day cycle. Petitions should be sent to FRA by some form of registered mail to ensure a record of delivery. FRA will investigate these petitions and will re-spond to these petitions within one year of their receipt. FRA will send its response by
40、 some form of registered mail to ensure that a record of delivery is created. In its response, FRA may grant the petition or deny it. If FRA grants the petition, the entirety of the revised requirements will become effec-tive upon receipt of FRAs response, unless FRAs response indicates other-wise.
41、If FRA denies the petition, the rule will become effective as provided in the first paragraph of this section. (2) FRA silence. Anyone who does not receive a response within one year of the date they filed their petition, whether through administrative or postal error, must notify FRA that the respo
42、nse has not been received. The no-tification should be provided to FRA by some form of registered mail to en-sure a record of delivery. Upon receipt of this notification, FRA will ensure that a response is either issued, or re- issued, as soon as possible. In the in-terim, however, any operator who
43、is at the end of their inspection cycle under the rules in effect prior to January 18, 2000 (See 49 CFR parts 200999, revised October 1, 1978) will be allowed to re-main in service without conducting the required inspection under 230.17 for an additional six months, or until they re-ceive FRAs decis
44、ion, whichever occurs first. 64 FR 62865, Nov. 17, 1999, as amended at 74 FR 25174, May 27, 2009 230.4 Penalties. (a) Any person who violates any re-quirement of this part or causes the violation of any such requirement is subject to a civil penalty of at least $650 and not more than $25,000 per vio
45、-lation, except that: Penalties may be assessed against individuals only for willful violations, and, where a grossly negligent violation or a pattern of re-peated violations has created an immi-nent hazard of death or injury to per-sons, or has caused death or injury, a penalty not to exceed $100,0
46、00 per viola-tion may be assessed. Each day a viola-tion continues shall constitute a sepa-rate offense. See appendix A of part 209 for a statement of agency civil penalty policy. (b) Any person who knowingly and willfully falsifies a record or report re-quired by this part may be subject to crimina
47、l penalties under 49 U.S.C. 21311. 64 FR 62865, Nov. 17, 1999, as amended at 69 FR 30594, May 28, 2004; 72 FR 51197, Sept. 6, 2007; 73 FR 79703, Dec. 30, 2008 230.5 Preemptive effect. The Locomotive Boiler Inspection Act (49 U.S.C. 2070120703) preempts all State laws or regulations concerning locomo
48、tive safety. Napier v. Atlantic Coast Line R.R., 272 U.S. 605 (1926). How-ever, FRA believes Congress did not in-tend to preempt State laws or regula-tions concerning rail operations over which FRA does not exercise jurisdic-tion. Therefore, in issuing this part, it is FRAs intent that State laws or
49、 reg-ulations applicable to those rail oper-ations to which this part does not apply (i.e., insular tourist operations) not be preempted. 230.6 Waivers. (a) A person subject to a requirement of this part may petition the Adminis-trator of FRA for a waiver of compli-ance with such requirement. The filing of such a petition does not affect that persons responsibility for compliance with that requirement while the peti-tion is bein
