FEDERAL RAIL ADMINISTRATION
Notice Of Proposed Rulemaking
FRA proposes to require commuter and intercity passenger railroads to develop and implement a system safety program (SSP) to improve the safety of their operations.
An SSP would be a structured program with proactive processes and procedures developed and implemented by commuter and intercity passenger railroads to identify and mitigate or eliminate hazards and the resulting risks on each railroad's system.
A railroad would have a substantial amount of flexibility to tailor an SSP to its specific operations. An SSP would be implemented by a written SSP plan and submitted to FRA for review and approval. A railroad's compliance with its SSP would be audited by FRA.
Written comments must be received by November 6, 2012.
Comments received after that date will be considered to the extent possible without incurring additional expense or delay.
