U.S. transportation regulators will propose a “comprehensive rulemaking package” next week to address standards for tank cars that carry volatile crude oil on the nation’s railroads.
“The proposal will include options for enhancing tank car standards,” a Department of Transportation official said in an email to Reuters.
“We look forward to working collaboratively with OIRA on the Administration’s proposal and initiating the formal comment process as soon as possible,” the official said.
