Office of Chief Counsel, FRA 400 7th Street, SW, Room 8201, Washington,
D.C. 20590 (Telephone: 202-366-0443).
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On August 17, 1994 FRA published a notice of
intent to establish an Advisory Committee (59 FR 42200). FRA also
published a notice establishing this Committee on January 5, 1995 (60
FR 1761), as well as publishing a notice of scheduled meetings on
February 15, 1995 (60 FR 8619). Consistent with these notices, the
continued objective of this Committee is to produce a report, including
a draft notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) recommending a course of
action for FRA to follow that will prevent roadway worker injuries and
fatalities.
The committee members, facilitators, and FRA determined that an
additional meeting was needed to resolve pending issues. With this in
mind, FRA continues to believe that public participation is critical to
the success of this process. This negotiation session will also be open
to the public, in accordance with the Federal Advisory Committe Act
(Pub. L. 92-463).
Issued this 2nd day of May, 1995.
