SEC. 352. (a) FINDINGS.—Congress makes the following findings:
(1) The condition of highway, railway, and waterway infrastructure across the Nation varies widely and is in need of
improvement and investment.
(2) Thousands of tons of hazardous materials, including
a very small amount of high-level radioactive material, are
transported along the Nation’s highways, railways, and waterways each year.
(3) The volume of hazardous material transport increased
by over one-third in the last 25 years and is expected to continue
to increase. Some propose significantly increasing radioactive
material transport.
(4) Approximately 261,000 people were evacuated across
the Nation because of rail-related incidents involving hazardous
materials between 1978 and 1995, and during that period
industry reported 8 transportation accidents involving the small
volume of high level radioactive waste transported during that
period.
(5) The Federal Railroad Administration has significantly
decreased railroad inspections and has allocated few resources
since 1993 to assure the structural integrity of railroad bridges.
Train derailments have increased by 18 percent over roughly
the same period.

(6) The poor condition of highway, railway, and waterway
infrastructure, increases in the volume of hazardous material
transport, and proposed increases in radioactive material transport increase the risk of incidents involving such materials.
(7) Measuring the risks of hazardous or radioactive material incidents and preventing such incidents requires specific
information concerning the condition and suitability of specific
transportation routes contemplated for such transport to inform
and enable investment in related infrastructure.
(8) Mitigating the impact of hazardous and radioactive
material transportation incidents requires skilled, localized, and
well-equipped emergency response personnel along all specifically identified transportation routes.
(9) Incidents involving hazardous or radioactive material
transport pose threats to the public health and safety, the
environment, and the economy.
(b) STUDY.—The Secretary of Transportation shall, in consultation with the Comptroller General of the United States, conduct
a study of the effects to public health and safety, the environment,
and the economy associated with the transportation of hazardous
and radioactive material.
(c) MATTERS TO BE ADDRESSED.—The study under subsection
(b) shall address the following matters:
(1) Whether the Federal Government conducts or reviews
individualized and detailed evaluations and inspections of the
condition and suitability of specific transportation routes for
the current, and any anticipated or proposed, transport of hazardous and radioactive material, including whether resources
and information are adequate to conduct such evaluations and
inspections.
(2) The costs and time required to ensure adequate inspection of specific transportation routes and related infrastructure
and to complete the infrastructure improvements necessary
to ensure the safety of current, and any anticipated or proposed,
hazardous and radioactive material transport.
(3) Whether emergency preparedness personnel, emergency
response personnel, and medical personnel are adequately
trained and equipped to promptly respond to incidents along
specific transportation routes for current, anticipated, or proposed hazardous and radioactive material transport.
(4) The costs and time required to ensure that emergency
preparedness personnel, emergency response personnel, and
medical personnel are adequately trained and equipped to
promptly respond to incidents along specific transportation
routes for current, anticipated, or proposed hazardous and
radioactive material transport.
(5) The availability of, or requirements to, establish governmental and commercial information collection and dissemination systems adequate to provide public and emergency
responders in an accessible manner, with timely, complete,
specific, and accurate information (including databases) concerning actual, proposed, or anticipated shipments by highway,
railway, or waterway of hazardous and radioactive materials,
including incidents involving the transportation of such materials by those means and the public safety implications of
such dissemination.
