| 2011-10015 | Railroad Safety Appliance Standards | Rule | FRA is amending the regulations related to safety appliance arrangements on railroad equipment. The amendments will promote the safe placement and securement of safety appliances on modern rail equipment by establishing a process for the review and approval of existing industry standards. This process will permit railroad industry representatives to submit requests for the approval of existing industry standards relating to the safety appliance arrangements on newly constructed railroad cars, locomotives, tenders, or other rail vehicles in lieu of the specific provisions currently contained in part 231. It is anticipated that this special approval process will further railroad safety by allowing FRA to consider technological advancements and ergonomic design standards for new car construction and ensuring that modern rail equipment complies with the applicable statutory and safety-critical regulatory requirements related to safety appliances while also providing the flexibility to efficiently address safety appliance requirements on new designs in the future for railroad cars, locomotives, tenders, or other rail vehicles. | 2011-04-28 | 2011 | 4 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2011/04/28/2011-10015/railroad-safety-appliance-standards | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2011-04-28/pdf/2011-10015.pdf | Transportation Department; Federal Railroad Administration | 492,185 | FRA is amending the regulations related to safety appliance arrangements on railroad equipment.
