Pursuant to a legislative requirement, GAO reviewed the effectiveness of the Department of Transportation's (DOT) rail safety inspection and enforcement programs, focusing on the: (1) improvement the Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) has made in its track inspection program; and (2) implementation problems that still limit the effectiveness of track inspections. GAO found that: (1) FRA has improved its track inspection program, and its strategy for correcting its weaknesses is sound; (2) to further strengthen rail safety, FRA needs to incorporate site-specific data on passenger and hazardous materials traffic in its inspection plan and improve the reliability of accident and injury data; (3) FRA has enhanced its daily oversight of track safety activities; (4) inspectors are applying track safety regulations and reporting track defects more consistently than before; (5) FRA does not always enforce its policy that inspectors review a railroad's compliance history before physically inspecting a track; (6) FRA faces a difficult challenge in revising the safety standards for excepted track; (7) track safety regulations do not allow FRA inspectors to write violations for excepted track and do not require railroads to fix cited defects; and (8) the number of reported accidents and cited defects on excepted track has increased, and FRA is concerned that railroads have abused the excepted track provision.
