Abstract

FRA proposes to amend its mechanical equipment safety standards related to brake inspections for passenger and freight rail equipment. The proposed changes focus on the incorporation of longstanding waivers for locomotive brake system maintenance and inspection requirements. The amendments are consistent with the mandates of the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA), which require FRA to review and analyze certain longstanding waivers to determine whether incorporating the waivers into FRA’s regulations is justified, and the Executive Order for Ensuring Lawful Governance and Implementing the President’s “Department of Government Efficiency” Deregulatory Initiative.
