FTA’s
Office of Budget and Policy is reopening
the comment period for the Federal
Register notice on National Transit
Database Reporting Changes and
Clarifications, originally published on
October 31, 2024 (89 FR 86907). Given
the complex nature of these reporting
requirements and its impact on NTD
reporting agencies, it is essential that
transit agencies and all affected parties
have sufficient time to review these
proposals and comment on them if so
desired. The extension is supported by
FTA’s Transit Advisory Committee for
Safety and FTA’s Office of Transit
Safety, as the notice contains proposed
changes that impact safety and security
reporting as well. In support of public
transportation safety, in light of the
comment period coinciding with the
end-of-year holidays, and to allow for
more input on the implementation of
these reporting changes, FTA believes
offering the standard 30-day extension
of time is justified and is reopening the
comment period until January 29, 2025.
