New Rail Reform Bill: Surface Transportation Board Reauthorization Act of 2015

According to AmericanShipper.Com, a new rail reform bill has been introduced to the U.S. Senate to help solve some inefficiencies. The Surface Transportation Board Reauthorization Act of 2015 aims to “make the STB a more efficient, effective, and accountable agency.”

A press release issued by The American Chemistry Council (ACC) further explains that “We need to update the STB’s policies so the Board is better equipped to deal with today’s freight rail challenges, including ongoing service problems and growing rate issues.”

Will the reform bill move the needle? Will more accountability be achieved?
