| 2012-30184 | Bus Testing: Calculation of Average Passenger Weight and Test Vehicle Weight | Proposed Rule | This action withdraws a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) that would have amended the Federal Transit Administration's (FTA's) bus testing regulation to increase the assumed average passenger weight value used for ballasting test buses from the current value of 150 pounds to a new value of 175 pounds. This increase was proposed to better reflect the actual weight of the average American adult and to provide accurate information to the transit agencies that purchase such vehicles. In light of recent legislation directing FTA to establish new pass/fail standards that require a more comprehensive review of its overall bus testing program, FTA is withdrawing the rulemaking. | 2012-12-14 | 2012 | 12 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2012/12/14/2012-30184/bus-testing-calculation-of-average-passenger-weight-and-test-vehicle-weight | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2012-12-14/pdf/2012-30184.pdf | Transportation Department; Federal Transit Administration | 492,193 | This action withdraws a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) that would have amended the Federal Transit Administration's (FTA's) bus testing regulation to increase the assumed average passenger weight value used for ballasting test buses from the... |
