Abstract:
This is a new information collection request to establish the Public Transportation Safety Certification Training Program. The Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century Act (MAP-21) authorized the Federal Transit Administration (FTA) to provide a framework to enhance the technical proficiency of those directly responsible for safety oversight of public transportation systems. The information collected allows the FTA to record completion of the required training and to ensure annual certification. The program respondents are Federal and State employees, or other designated personnel, who conduct safety audits and examinations of public transportation systems, and employees of public transportation agencies directly responsible for safety oversight.
