<p>The 9/11 Act requires the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) to issue regulations for vulnerability assessments and security planning to be conducted by high-risk surface transportation operations. TSA will propose a new regulation to address the security of higher-risk freight railroads,&nbsp;public transportation agencies, passenger railroads, and over-the-road buses&nbsp;in accordance with requirements of the Implementing Recommendations of the 9/11 Commission Act of 2007 (9/11 Act). The&nbsp;proposed rule&nbsp;will consider comments received on the advance notice of proposed rulemaking (ANPRM) published in December 2016.</p>
