Mo. Code Regs. tit. 7 § 265-8.092

Current through Register Vol. 49, No. 23, December 2, 2024

Section 7 CSR 265-8.092 - Railroad Reports

PURPOSE: This amendment moves the rule from Title 4 to Title 7, removes the requirement for a railroad to provide a copy of its system rail traffic density diagram, and removes an average daily train traffic form as part of the published rule to provide greater flexibility to the department in the event this form is changed in the future. This amendment also adds new reporting requirements relating to rail operating revenues, mileage operated, track mileage, rail line operation statistics and freight carried, and incorporates the forms used for such reports into the rule by reference.

PURPOSE: This rule requires the notification by railroads operating within the state to file with the division certain traffic statistics for use as planning information in railroad safety studies.
