FRA proposes to amend its standards for Reflectorization of Rail Freight Rolling Stock (Reflectorization Standards or Part 224) to codify waivers and remove the outdated implementation schedule. The proposed changes are expected to enhance safety, promote innovation, clarify existing requirements, and reduce unnecessary paperwork burdens. The proposed amendments are consistent with the mandate of the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA), which requires FRA to review and analyze certain longstanding waivers to determine whether incorporating the waivers into FRA’s regulations is justified. This collection of information is mandatory, collected as needed, and is associated with FRA's rule 49 CFR part 224. It involves both reporting and recordkeeping requirements. The information collected is used by FRA to ensure that railroad car owners meet the prescribed standards for the application, inspection, and maintenance of the required retroreflective material on freight cars and locomotives. Additionally, the information collected enables FRA to promote and enhance railroad safety.
