Current through Register Vol. 46, No. 28, July 10, 2024
WHEREAS, the Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA) is
					 North America's largest transportation network, servicing a population of 15.3
					 million people in the 5,000-square-mile area fanning out from New York City
					 through Long Island, southeastern New York State and Connecticut;
WHEREAS, the Long Island Rail Road is the busiest commuter
					 railroad in North America, carrying an average of 301,000 customers each
					 weekday on 735 daily trains;
WHEREAS, more than five million customers use the MTA's
					 rail and subway system every day, its highest ridership in history, many of
					 whom have no other means of affordable and safe transportation to meet their
					 daily needs;
WHEREAS, consistent, efficient and safe mass transportation
					 into and out of the City of New York is necessary for the sustained viability
					 of New York State's economy and the protection and livelihood of the State's
					 residents and visitors;
WHEREAS, there have been increasingly constant and
					 continuing failures of the tracks, signals, switches and other transportation
					 infrastructure throughout the system including at Pennsylvania Station located
					 in the County of New York (Penn Station) that have resulted in various subway
					 derailments, extensive track outages, and substantial service disruptions
					 impacting the health and safety of hundreds of thousands of riders;
WHEREAS, these failures include three subway derailments -
					 the A train at West 128th St on June 27, 2017; an Amtrak train at Penn Station
					 on March 24, 2017; and a NJ Transit train at Penn Station on April 3, 2017 -
					 and other incidents such as: the F train being stuck between the West 4th
					 Street and Broadway-Lafayette stations without air conditioning or power for
					 over an hour on June 5, 2017; a NJ Transit train being stuck in a tunnel for 3
					 hours on April 15, 2017 without power or air conditioning, a water condition on
					 January 9, 2017 on the F line at West 4th Street; signal switch trouble on
					 January 24, 2017 on the D line at 59th Street-Columbus Circle; a broken rail on
					 March 6, 2017 on the N line at Queensboro Plaza; a home signal problem on April
					 24, 2017 on the D line at Dekalb Ave; a power problem on May 30, 2017 on the E
					 line at Queens Plaza; a track circuit failure on June 9, 2017 on the C line at
					 Jay St.-Metro Tech; signal trouble on June 20, 2017 on the D line at 34th St.
					 Herald Square; and other similar derailments and related infrastructure
					 issues;
WHEREAS, the continuing failures of the tracks, signals,
					 switches and other transportation infrastructure throughout the MTA's rail and
					 subway system, overcapacity for the last fifty years, and failures at Penn
					 Station, have had a vast and deleterious impact on the health, safety, and
					 livelihood of commuters, tourists, resident New Yorkers, as well as business
					 and commerce in the Metropolitan Commuter Transportation District (MCTD), which
					 is the recognized economic engine of the State of New York, and thereby have
					 adversely affected the New York State economy;
WHEREAS, in order to address failures at Penn Station, the
					 National Railroad Passenger Corporation (Amtrak), the owner of Penn Station,
					 plans a series of repairs to the tracks, signal, switches and other
					 transportation infrastructure at Penn Station (the Amtrak Repair Program),
					 which is scheduled to proceed from July 2017 through August 2017 and will
					 involve various track outages and service disruptions;
WHEREAS, the track outages and service disruption necessary
					 to implement the Amtrak Repair Program and other repairs necessary to fix
					 tracks, signals, switches and other transportation infrastructure throughout
					 the MTA's rail and subway system are necessary to protect the public, health
					 and safety and will result in further deleterious impact on commuters,
					 tourists, other New Yorkers, as well as business and commerce in the MCTD and
					 thereby on the New York State economy, and will also worsen the transportation
					 disaster emergency that currently exists due to the condition of Penn Station
					 and the MTA's rail and subway system as a whole; and,
WHEREAS, significant and immediate action must be taken by
					 the MTA and its subsidiaries and affiliates to assist in the repair of the
					 tracks, signals, switches and other transportation infrastructure and in the
					 mediation of such track outages and service disruptions due to this disaster
					 emergency;
NOW, THEREFORE, I, ANDREW M. CUOMO, Governor of the State
					 of New York, by virtue of the authority vested in me by Sections 28 and 29-a of
					 Article 2-B of the Executive Law to temporarily suspend specific provisions of
