[FRA Docket No. RSOR 13, Notice No. 7]
RIN 2130-AA86


Roadway Worker Protection

AGENCY: Federal Railroad Administration (FRA), Department of 
Transportation (DOT).

ACTION: Notice of hearing.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: On March 14, FRA published its Notice of Proposed Rulemaking 
on Roadway Worker Protection (61 FR 10528), which was the product of 
the agency's first regulatory negotiation. FRA announced at that time 
that a public hearing would only be scheduled if it was requested, 
since the negotiated rulemaking process has already provided a 
significant opportunity for oral presentations and participation by the 
public. An expression of interest in having a hearing was submitted on 
behalf of one person whom we have not been able to identify or contact. 
However, in accordance with 5 U.S.C. Sec. 553 and 49 U.S.C. 
Sec. 20103(e), FRA is holding the requested hearing.

DATES: A public hearing will be held from 12:30 p.m. to 5:30 p.m. on 
July 11, 1996. Any person who wishes to speak at the hearing should 
notify the FRA Docket Clerk at least five working days before the 
hearing, by telephone (202) 366-2257 or by mail.

ADDRESSES: The public hearing will be held in the Executive Room, 
Holiday Inn Capitol Hill, which is located at 415 New Jersey Avenue, 
N.W., Washington, D.C. 20001.
