[Docket No. EP 746]


Updating the Code of Federal Regulations

AGENCY: Surface Transportation Board.

ACTION: Final rules.

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

SUMMARY: The Surface Transportation Board (Board) is updating its 
regulations to reflect certain statutory changes enacted in the Surface 
Transportation Board Reauthorization Act of 2015 and to replace certain 
obsolete or incorrect references in the regulations.

DATES: This rule is effective May 2, 2018.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Sarah Fancher: (202) 245-0355. Federal 
Information Relay Service (FIRS) for the hearing impaired: (800) 877-
8339.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In this decision, the Board is revising, 
correcting, and updating its regulations in 49 CFR ch. X. Some of these 
revisions are necessitated by changes made by the Surface 
Transportation Board Reauthorization Act of 2015, Public Law 114-110, 
129 Stat. 2228 (2015) (STB Reauthorization Act).
    This decision makes the following changes to the Board's 
regulations:
     Eliminates or changes obsolete agency and/or office titles 
(e.g., 49 CFR 1105.7(b), 1152.50(d)(1)(ii));
     corrects obsolete contact information (e.g., 49 CFR 
1180.4(c)(5)(ii), 1182.3);
     corrects references to United States Code or Code of 
Federal Regulations sections that have been moved \1\ or are otherwise 
incorrect (e.g., 49 CFR 1244.9(d)(2), 1103.3(c)(2));
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ The STB Reauthorization Act revised parts of the United 
States Code, including re-designating Chapter 7 of Title 49 of the 
Code as Chapter 13. STB Reauthorization Act sec. 3.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

     revises URL references to reflect the Board's new website 
\2\ (e.g., 49 CFR 1001.1(d));
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \2\ As a result of the STB Reauthorization Act, the Board is no 
longer administratively housed in the Department of Transportation; 
therefore, the Board changed its website from ``www.stb.dot.gov'' to 
``www.stb.gov.''
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

     revises the Board's regulations to reflect that the STB 
Reauthorization Act sec. 4 expanded the Board from three members to 
five members (49 CFR 1011.3); and
     corrects an omitted subheading (49 CFR pt. 1248).

[[Page 15076]]

    Because these revisions are not substantive and/or relate to rules 
of agency organization, procedure, or practice, the Board finds good 
cause that notice and comment under the Administrative Procedure Act 
(APA) are unnecessary. 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(3)(A) & (B).
    The Regulatory Flexibility Act (RFA), as amended by the Small 
Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act of 1996, 5 U.S.C. 601-612, 
generally requires an agency to prepare a regulatory flexibility 
analysis of any rule subject to notice and comment rulemaking 
requirements, unless the agency certifies that the rule will not have a 
significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities. 
Because the Board has determined that notice and comment are not 
required under the APA for this rulemaking, the requirements of the RFA 
do not apply.
    These final rules do not contain a new or amended information 
collection requirement subject to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, 
44 U.S.C. 3501-3521.
