Federal Railroad Administration June 19, 2013 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

Signal System Reporting Requirements
Document Number: 2013-14602
Type: Proposed Rule
Date: 2013-06-19
Agency: Federal Railroad Administration, Department of Transportation
As part of a paperwork reduction initiative, FRA is proposing to eliminate the regulatory requirement that each carrier must file with FRA a signal system status report every five years. FRA believes the report is no longer necessary because advances in technology have made it possible for more updated information regarding railroad signal systems to be available to FRA through alternative sources. Separately, FRA is proposing to amend the criminal penalty provision in the Signal System Reporting Requirements by updating an outdated statutory citation.
