1、232 49 CFR Ch. II (10110 Edition) Pt. 219 evaluation summary of the factors consid-ered and shall provide the railroad with agreed upon parameters by which the cam-era-assisted remote control operation may continue in operation if the factors required for suitability change; thus, any change in the

2、factors considered by the diagnostic team outside of the acceptable parameters shall require the railroad to receive a revised evaluation approval from a diagnostic team before continuing any such operation. In ad-dition, any of the Federal, State, or local governmental authorities may trigger re-vi

3、ew of a prior evaluation approval at any time there is a question of the suitability of the operation. It is possible that, of the re-quirements listed below, requirements num-bered 2, 4, 5, and 6 would be unnecessary at highway-rail grade crossings or yard access crossings equipped with approved su

4、pple-mental safety devices (see 49 CFR part 222, app. A) that prevent motorists from driving around lowered gates; under such cir-cumstances, the diagnostic team shall make such determinations. If a Crossing Diag-nostic Team, as described in this paragraph, evaluated a crossing for the factors descr

5、ibed herein, prior to April 14, 2008, another diag-nostic team evaluation is not required to comply with this rule; however, the require-ments listed below shall still apply to any such remotely controlled movements over that crossing. 2. Camera-assisted remote control loco-motive operations shall o

6、nly be permitted at crossings equipped with flashing lights, gates, and constant warning time train de-tection systems where appropriate, based on train speeds. 3. A crewmember or other qualified em-ployee shall not view the monitor in place of the remote control operator, as is permitted for other

7、shoving or pushing movements. See 218.99(b)(3). For purposes of remote control locomotive operations with camera/monitor setups to protect the point at highway-rail grade crossings, pedestrian crossings, and yard access crossings, the remote control op-erator controlling the movement shall view the

8、monitor during such operations. 4. The cameras shall be arranged to give the remote control locomotive operator con-trolling the movement a view of the rail ap-proaches to the crossing from each direction so that the operator can accurately judge the end of the movements proximity to the crossing. 5

9、. The cameras shall be arranged to give the remote control locomotive operator a clear view to determine the speed and driver behavior (e.g., driving erratically) of any ap-proaching motor vehicles. 6. Either the camera resolution shall be sufficient to determine whether the flashing lights and gate

10、s are working as intended or the crossing shall be equipped with a remote health monitoring system that is capable of notifying the remote control locomotive op-erator immediately if the flashing lights and gates are not working as intended. 7. The railroad shall notify the Associate Administrator f

11、or Safety in writing when this type of protection has been installed and activated at a crossing. III. CONCLUSION The technology used to aid point protec-tion will undoubtedly develop and improve over time. FRA encourages the use and de-velopment of this technology as is evidenced by the option in t

12、his rule to utilize such technology. Meanwhile, as a regulating body, FRA cannot determine whether a new tech-nology to aid point protection provides an equivalent level of protection to that of a di-rect visual determination unless we are made aware of the new technology. Con-sequently, aside from

13、the camera/monitor setups described in this appendix, each rail-road that intends to implement a technology used to aid point protection shall notify the Associate Administrator for Safety in writ-ing of the technology to be used prior to im-plementation. 73 FR 8504, Feb. 13, 2008 PART 219CONTROL OF

31、ees of the railroad, regardless of occupation, not only while in the United States but also while outside the United States. For purposes of this paragraph, the term employees of the railroad in-cludes individuals who perform service for the railroad, including not only in-dividuals who receive dire

32、ct monetary compensation from the railroad for performing a service for the railroad, but also such individuals as employees of a contractor to the railroad who per-form a service for the railroad. (c) Exceptions available to foreign rail-roads only. (1) Subparts E, F and G of this part do not apply

33、 to train or dis-patching service in the United States performed by an employee of a foreign railroad whose primary reporting point is outside the United States, on that portion of a rail line in the United States extending up to10 route miles from the point that the line crosses into the United Sta

34、tes from Canada or Mexico. (2) Unless otherwise provided by paragraph (b) of this section, subparts A, B, C, D, H, I, and J of this part apply to signal service in the United States of a foreign railroad performed by an employee of the foreign railroad if the employees primary place of reporting is

37、States while having his or her primary reporting point outside of the United States. The test shall be conducted in accordance with this part prior to the applicant or employees performance of train or dispatching service in the United States. 69 FR 19286, Apr. 12, 2004 219.4 Recognition of a foreig

38、n rail-roads workplace testing program. (a) General. A foreign railroad may petition the FRA Associate Adminis-trator for Safety for recognition of a workplace testing program promul-gated under the laws of its home coun-try as a compatible alternative to the return-to-service requirements in sub-pa

39、rt B of this part and the require-ments of subparts E, F, and G of this part with respect to its employees whose primary reporting point is out-side the United States but who enter the United States to perform train or dispatching service and with respect to its final applicants for, or its employ-e

40、es seeking to transfer for the first time to, duties involving such service. (1) To be so considered, the petition must document that the foreign rail-roads workplace testing program con-tains equivalents to subparts B, E, F, and G of this part: (i) Pre-employment drug testing; (ii) A policy dealing

41、 with co-worker and self-reporting of alcohol and drug abuse problems; (iii) Random drug and alcohol test-ing; (iv) Return-to-duty testing; and (v) Testing procedures and safeguards reasonably comparable in effectiveness to all applicable provisions of the United States Department of Transpor-tation

42、 Procedures for Workplace Drug and Alcohol Testing Programs (part 40 of this title). (2) In approving a program under this section, the FRA Associate Adminis-trator for Safety may impose condi-tions deemed necessary. (b) Alternative programs. (1) Upon FRAs recognition of a foreign rail-roads workpla

43、ce testing program as compatible with the return-to-service requirements in subpart B and the re-quirements of subparts E, F, and G of this part, the foreign railroad must comply with either the enumerated provisions of part 219 or with the stand-ards of the recognized program, and any imposed condi

44、tions, with respect VerDate Mar2010 09:47 Dec 14, 2010 Jkt 220215 PO 00000 Frm 00244 Fmt 8010 Sfmt 8010 Y:SGML220215.XXX 220215jdjones on DSK8KYBLC1PROD with CFRProvided by IHSNot for ResaleNo reproduction or networking permitted without license from IHS-,-,-235 Federal Railroad Administration, DOT
