چکیده
FTA proposed to add selections for ‘‘type of fire’’ to the non-rail fire event detail screens to provide better nationallevel information for vehicle fire prevention and mitigation. Comment. FTA received two comments to the proposed revision. Commenters indicated that ‘‘type of fire’’ was often difficult to ascertain and could only be identified after a lengthy investigation. FTA Response. The NTD allows for event reports to be edited months after being reported, thus FTA does not consider this problematic for reporters and will adopt the proposed revision as stated.
