Railroad Safety Enhancement Act of 2026 - Enhances safety requirements for trains transporting hazardous materials.
The Railroad Safety Enhancement Act of 2026 aims to enhance safety requirements for trains transporting hazardous materials. It mandates that Class I railroads provide commodity flow reports of hazardous materials to state and tribal emergency response commissions. The bill also requires each railroad to designate qualified inspectors for compliance and determinations. It establishes security and confidentiality protections to prevent the release of proprietary or security-sensitive information.
The filed bill text is too short for analysis.
