The Department of Transportation is offering this grant to support the Rail Corridor Risk Management System (RCRMS). This grant is specifically for the continued development, maintenance, and essential updates of the RCRMS program. The primary purpose of the RCRMS is to facilitate the safe and efficient routing of high-hazard materials, particularly Poisonous-by-Inhalation Hazards (PIH) and Toxic-by-Inhalation Hazards (TIH), along the nation’s rail corridors. Ensuring robust management of these materials is critical for public safety and environmental protection. This funding opportunity aims to enhance the system’s capabilities, ensuring it remains an effective tool for mitigating risks associated with hazardous material transportation by rail.
