## Abstract

The Federal Railroad Administration has consolidated its docket operations with those of other Department of Transportation operating elements. DOT's nine separate docket facilities have been consolidated into the Centralized Docket Management System and have been converted from a paper-based system to an optical imaging system for more efficient storage, management and retrieval of docketed information. This conversion is intended to provide better service and more widespread access to both the public and government users. This final rule provides details of new docket filing procedures for FRA regulatory and adjudicatory proceedings. This final rule also amends certain FRA rules to provide accurate information to the public regarding filing requirements for FRA proceedings.
