Qualification and Certification of Locomotive Engineers; Corrections

Final rule; corrections.

FRA published in the Federal Register of November 8, 1999, (64 FR 60966), a document making miscellaneous amendments to its requirements for the qualification and certification of locomotive engineers (49 CFR part 240). Inadvertently, mistakes were made in four different items in that publication. First, in Sec. 240.7, a revised definition of locomotive is missing a parenthesis. Second, in Sec. 240.7, an added definition of service has one misplaced quotation mark. Third, a new Sec. 240.309(e)(6) was published without describing the amendment as a revision of the existing paragraph (e)(6). Without a correction, the section would contain two different paragraphs numbered (e)(6). This document removes the older paragraph (e)(6). Fourth, two revisions were made to the penalty schedule regarding Sec. 240.123 without describing the amendments. Without a correction, the penalty schedule would not be amended; instead, the revision would be published separately after the penalty schedule.
