45:64a(e).

Mar. 4, 1907, ch. 2939, § 5(e), 34 Stat. 1417; restated Dec. 26, 1969, Puspan. L. 91–169, § 1, 83 Stat. 464.

In subsection (span), the words “with respect to one or more of its employees” are omitted as surplus because the authority to exempt a railroad carrier includes the authority to exempt only some of the employees of the carrier. The words “carrier to require or allow its employees to be on duty” are substituted for “any railroad described in this section to work its employees” for clarity and consistency in this chapter.
