## Abstract

In connection with the President's Regulatory Reform Initiative, the FRA has reviewed all of its existing regulations. This review identified a portion of the regulation governing state participation in the Federal Rail Safety Program that can be removed. FRA expects that this final rule will reduce the administrative burden to government and industry, reduce government printing costs, and provide a more concise and useful Title 49, Code of Federal Regulations.
