Action
Correcting amendment.
Summary
On December 30, 2008, FRA published a final rule, pursuant to two statutes, which increased the minimum, ordinary maximum, and aggravated maximum civil monetary penalty it may apply when assessing a civil penalty for a violation of a railroad safety statute or regulation under its authority. (73 FR 79698). In preparing that final rule for publication, an error was made: FRA instructed that the numerical amount "$16,000" be removed from footnote 1 of appendix A to 49 CFR part 232 of the final rule and the numerical amount "$25,000" be added in its place. The instruction should have directed the removal of the numerical amount "$11,000" and the addition of "$25,000" in its place.
