DHS OIG: TSA's Preparedness for Mass Transit and Passenger Rail Emergencies

by on

OIG-10-68 – TSA’s Preparedness for Mass Transit and Passenger Rail Emergencies (PDF, 30 pages)

  • “The Transportation Security Administration can better support passenger rail agencies by improving its assessments of emergency preparedness and response capabilities. The agency can also improve its efforts to train passenger rail agencies and first responders, and ensure that drills and exercises are live and more realistic to help strengthen response capabilities. The agency has focused primarily on security and terrorism prevention efforts, while providing limited staff and resources to emergency preparedness and response. As a result, passenger rail agencies and the first responders they rely upon may not be adequately prepared to handle all emergencies or mitigate their consequences.”
