Congressman Dennis J. Kucinich (D-OH) issued the following statement
today on the Federal Rail Administration (FRA) Interim Final Rule on
Train Quiet Zones:
“Since the Conrail merger in 1998, I have worked at the federal,
state and community level to provide relief to residents plagued by
increased train horn noise. Today’s publication of the Interim Final
Quiet Zone Rule by the FRA is a positive, long-awaited, development
in this continuing effort.
“The FRA has attempted to assure safety while providing residents of
communities with high train traffic much needed noise relief.
“During the two month comment period, I will thoroughly
review the interim rule in close consultation with local and state
officials and residents of the area’s effected.” |
