Petition for Waiver of Compliance Under part 211 of title 49 Code of Federal Regulations CFR, this document provides the public notice that on December 11, 2020, the City of San Clemente, California, the City and Southern California Regional Rail Authority Metrolink petitioned the Federal Railroad Administration FRA
for a waiver of compliance from certain provisions of the Federal railroad safety regulations contained at 49 CFR part 222, Use of Locomotive Horns at Public Highway-Rail Grade Crossings. FRA
assigned the petition Docket Number FRA20200038.
Specifically, the City and Metrolink jointly seek relief from the requirements of 49 CFR 222.59a1, to allow use of a Pedestrian Audible Warning System PAWS, which is similar to a wayside horn, when approaching seven highway-rail grade crossings, instead of a locomotive horn. The City also

requests a waiver of certain provisions found in appendix E to 49 CFR part 222, Paragraphs 4 and 6, to allow a minimum sound level of 80 dBA and direction of the PAWS. The seven crossings that are the subject of this waiver are:

On April 14, 2015, FRA granted the City and Metrolink regulatory relief from the requirements of 222.59a1, and part 222, appendix E, as described above, for a five-year period. See Docket Number FRA20140081. By letter dated April 27, 2020, the City sought a five-year extension of the previously granted relief, which FRA denied in a letter dated November 24, 2020. FRAs letter noted the Citys late request, the lack of a joint request with Metrolink as required by 49 CFR 222.15, and concerns regarding the operation of the PAWS, the condition of the pedestrian swing gates, and sediment buildup at nearby fencing. See FRA20200038
0004.
The current joint petition seeks a fiveyear extension of relief from the abovestated requirements, and the City and Metrolink have provided maintenance and communication plans to support their petition.
A copy of the petition, as well as any written communications concerning the petition, is available for review online at www.regulations.gov. The Docket Operations Facility is open from 9 a.m.
to 5 p.m., Monday through Friday, except Federal Holidays.
