SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION

I. Overview 

FTA is updating the Safety & Security 

Module in the National Transit Database 

Reporting Manual in order to better 

align NTD safety data collection with 

data that is collected in the State Safety 

Oversight (SSO) program Rail Transit 

Event Database. 

On August 21, 2014, FTA issued a 

notice of request for comments for 

proposed revisions of the National 

Transit Database Safety Information 

Collection, in the Federal Register (79 

FR 49557, http://www.gpo.gov/fdsys/

pkg/FR–2014–08–21/pdf/2014– 

19787.pdf). The comment period closed 

on October 20, 2014. FTA received a 

total of 37 comments from 12 

stakeholders, including 10 public 

transportation providers, one trade 

association, and one individual. This 

notice addresses comments received 

and explains the revisions FTA is 

making to the NTD Reporting Manual. 

An overview of the comments and the 

FTA responses are provided below. 

II. Response to Comments 

Commenters recommended that both 

FTA and the SSO agencies should use 

the same database and that reports sent 

to the SSO, FTA, and the Federal 

Railroad Administration (FRA) should 

be collected and maintained on one 

standard reporting form that meets the 

needs of all agencies then disseminated 

to other agencies as required from the 

assigned federal agency. 

While FTA notes the revisions we 

propose are meant to be a step in that 

direction, the primary motive for the 

revisions will align the NTD reporting 

thresholds and definitions with those of 

the SSO Program database, allowing the 

NTD and the SSO Program to share 

reports and simplify reporting 

requirements. Additionally, FRA’s 

regulatory responsibilities have 

historically differed from those of FTA. 

FTA also received comments that safety 

professionals cannot find statistics that 

are based on data provided to the NTD 

and the SSO Rail Transit Event 

Database. These commenters questioned 

FTA’s need for collecting more data and 

asserted that FTA does not do anything 

visible with the data it collects. The 

NTD produces a monthly time series of 

safety data that is used extensively by 

the rail transit industry. The FTA has 

new safety authority pursuant to MAP– 

21, and as a result its Office of Transit 

Safety and Oversight (TSO) now has 

additional staff and resources that is 

developing a more active program going 

forward. In the future, we will use the 

data collected to produce regular 

products and reports for use by the 

safety community. 

1. Reportable Event (clarification) 

Incidents reported to the NTD and the 

SSO Rail Transit Event Database will be 

called ‘‘events.’’ FTA suggested this 

change because other uses of the term 

‘‘incident’’ are defined as an occurrence 

that is less severe than an accident or 

imply a security event. ‘‘Event’’ in this 

case is intended to include planned and 

unplanned events that are required to be 

reported to the NTD. This change is 

necessary to provide better alignment 

with nomenclature used by other 

transportation modes, and to provide 

clarity during data analysis conducted 

to identify safety trends. 

Comment. One commenter disagreed 

with the ‘‘events’’ classification and 

stated that there would continue to be 

room for confusion with FRA’s 

definition of ‘‘incident.’’ 

FTA Response. FTA is primarily 

concerned with using terminology that 

is compatible with usage in the SSO 

Program. ‘‘Event’’ is the blanket term for 

accidents and other incidents that are 

not accidental (such as suicides). Since 

the NTD also collects information on 

security events, and such usage is 

compatible with the Department of 

Homeland Security (DHS) definition, 

FTA intends to proceed with this 

proposed revision. 

2. Change in Location Criteria 

The NTD currently includes events 

that are ‘‘related to or affect revenue 

service.’’ Consistent with data reported 

to the SSO Program, FTA proposed to 

revise these applicability criteria to ‘‘an 

event occurring on transit right-of-way, 

in a transit revenue facility, in a transit 

maintenance facility, or involving a 

transit revenue vehicle, excluding 

occupational safety events occurring in 

administrative buildings.’’ Application 

of these new criteria would mean that 

recipients will no longer report events at 

bus stops that are not on property 

owned or controlled by the agency, 

unless the event involves a transit 

vehicle, or boarding/alighting from a 

transit vehicle. 

Comment. FTA received eight 

comments to the proposed revision. 

Commenters expressed concern that 

changing ‘‘affecting revenue service 

standard’’ to a ‘‘location-based 

standard’’ would include a number of 

occupational safety events that are 

normally reported to the Occupational 

Safety & Health Administration (OSHA). 

Many commenters noted that these 

events are already reported to OSHA, 

and that this proposed revision would 

require agencies to file multiple reports
