Type: Rule
Date: 2023-10-05
Agency: National Transportation Safety Board, Agencies and Commissions
The National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) is amending its regulatory description of the agency's seal. Since the seal's inception, the agency has utilized various versions of the seal. For consistency, the agency is updating the regulation and codifying current agency practice. These updates will provide a revised graphical representation of the seal. Additionally, the NTSB is including non- substantive technical amendments throughout part 803 due to recent internal organizational changes and a typographical error reflected in the agency's mailing address. Since publishing the notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM), no comments have been received.
Authority of NTSB in Railroad, Pipeline, and Hazardous Materials Investigations
Document Number: 2023-18840
Type: Proposed Rule
Date: 2023-08-31
Agency: National Transportation Safety Board, Agencies and Commissions
The National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) is publishing this advance notice of proposed rulemaking (ANPRM) to seek public feedback on whether it should define the term ``substantial property damage'' as it relates to the agency's authority to investigate railroad accidents. Neither the agency's statute nor the regulation currently defines this term, thus, the NTSB seeks comments on whether defining ``substantial property damage'' would better clarify the scope of regulatory coverage for its railroad investigations. The issues raised in the comments submitted in response to this ANPRM will inform whether and how the NTSB will define this term in its regulation.

The National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) is publishing this advance notice of proposed rulemaking (ANPRM) to seek public feedback on whether it should define the terms ``significant injury to the environment'' and ``substantial property damage'' as they relate to the agency's investigative authority involving pipeline accidents.

The issues raised in the comments submitted in response to this ANPRM will inform whether and how the NTSB will define these terms in its regulation.

Internal Personnel Rules and Practices of the NTSB; Corrections
Document Number: 2021-27300
Type: Rule
Date: 2021-12-30
Agency: National Transportation Safety Board, Agencies and Commissions
This document corrects the wording reflected in various sections in part 801 as a result of the amendatory language in the interim final rule (IFR) published in the Federal Register (FR) on October 4, 2021. The IFR amended part 801, in pertinent part, by revising all references to ``public reading room'' to read ``electronic reading room''. Consequently, that revision resulted in needless repetition of ``electronic reading room'' in several part 801 regulations. This correction amends the affected regulations to reflect the agency's original intent.

Agency: National Transportation Safety Board, Agencies and Commissions
The National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) is amending its Internal Personnel Rules and Practices to reflect that the agency is closing its ``public reference room'' and will now make qualifying records electronically available. Moreover, the agency will remove an outdated paragraph describing a particular category of exempted records under the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA): internal matters of a relatively trivial nature that have no significant public interest, and predominately internal matters that the release would risk circumvention of a statute or agency regulation. The revisions to the NTSB FOIA regulation are being issued as an interim final rule to ensure that an updated regulations is in place as soon as practicable to implement the Supreme Court decision.

Amendment to the Definition of Unmanned Aircraft Accident
Document Number: 2021-09807
Type: Proposed Rule
Date: 2021-05-21
Agency: National Transportation Safety Board, Agencies and Commissions
The National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) proposes amending the definition of ``Unmanned aircraft accident'' by removing the weight-based requirement and replacing it with an airworthiness certificate or airworthiness approval requirement. The weight threshold is no longer an appropriate criterion because unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) under 300 lbs. are operating in high-risk environments, such as beyond line-of-sight and over populated areas. The proposed definition will allow the NTSB to be notified of and quickly respond to UAS events with safety significance.
