STB Commissioner Speaks at Fall Meeting

Francis P. Mulvey, the longest tenured member of the Surface Transportation Board was the Keynote Speaker at the Institute’s Fall Meeting on Monday, October 5, 2009.  Dr. Mulvey addressed recent and planned activities of the Board as they relate to the shipment of TIH and other hazardous materials and his thoughts on the future direction of the Board.

 

The STB is an economic regulatory agency that Congress charged with the fundamental missions of resolving railroad rate and service disputes and reviewing proposed railroad mergers.  The STB is decisionally independent, although it is administratively affiliated with the U.S. Department of Transportation. It was created in the Interstate Commerce Commission Termination Act of 1995 and is the successor agency to the Interstate Commerce Commission.
