Notice of availability of the final 2008 National Transit Database Safety & Security Reporting Manual.
Summary
This notice announces the availability of the Federal Transit Administration's (FTA) 2008 National Transit Database (NTD) Safety & Security Reporting Manual. Pursuant to 49 U.S.C. 5335, FTA requires those transit agencies reporting to the NTD from urbanized areas to provide reports within 30 days of a major safety or security incident, and to provide a monthly report on minor safety and security incidents. The 2008 NTD Safety & Security Reporting Manual details the specific requirements and guidelines for safety and security reporting. On November 21, 2007, FTA published a notice in the Federal Register (72 FR 65636) inviting comments on proposed changes to the 2008 NTD Safety & Security Reporting Manual. This notice provides responses to those comments, and announces the availability of the 2008 NTD Safety & Security Reporting Manual on the NTD Web site at http:// www.ntdprogram.gov.
