APTA Rail CEOs Meeting
September 29, 2013
Chicago, IL
DRAFT MINUTES
1. Welcome and introductions: Chair Paul Jablonski opened the meeting by offering a welcome.
Introductions were made around the room.
2. Regulatory update: Jim LaRusch opened with news of a settlement agreement with Arrival Star,
which extends to all APTA members, and contractors to those members.
13C resolution in California: Jablonski reported that DOL and the governor would not budge, but
allows Sacramento RT to sue, amicably.
3. Leadership APTA: A team from the current class of Leadership APTA made a presentation on
Mega Events.
4. Legislative Report: Rob Healy gave the report. He noted efforts at balancing bus/bus facilities
program with the SOGR program.
If McConnell and Hatch push tax reform, we will push for reform of highway trust fund.
We will probably get funded through 2014, and will face another “fiscal cliff” next year.
5. Transportation Learning Center: Brian Turner presented a fact sheet on the transit signals
training consortium. The program will eventually develop "text book" via tablet, with
hyperlinked text throughout. The Center is seeking DOL certification for a technician
apprenticeship program for elevator and escalator maintenance.
There is also interest and need to develop a "train the trainer" program.
Joe Calabrese echoed the value of the program. Jablonski stated that the committee needs to
keep this front and center. Bev Scott wants to see a compendium for each program, who is the
primary POC for each agency on each program. She would like this as a future presentation, but
also a roster.
6. Comments from the APTA Chair: Peter Varga noted that he has been thinking a lot of what he
needs to do as chair. His focus is the industry’s need for a multimodal, multi-year authorization
bill, and therefore his catch phrase for the year will be Organize – Energize- Authorize to keep
the focus on a bill.
7. Comments from the FTA Administrator: Peter Rogoff began his remarks by stating that he is
looking forward to working together with Peter Varga over the next year. Grand Rapids has
seen impressive service improvements and ridership growth in this economic climate.
The administrator announced that the ANPRM on safety and transit asset management is “out
on the street”. It was posted to the FTA website as of September 26. He specifically asked
members of this committee to take notice, and comment on the proposed rule making. On Sept
30, 2013 MAP-21 will be half-over.
The FTA is focused on reauthorization. They are aggressively discussing funding mechanisms.
The Administrator also announced the appointment of Tom Littleton from FAA as new associate
administrator for safety and oversight. He has the charge of creating an affordable safety
management system from a blank slate.
By Monday, September 30, all state safety organizations need to be notified by FTA as to their
certification status. He noted that we need to grow the expertise in the industry to staff up the
SSOs and build the bench strength at the agencies.
8. Administrative Items:
 Minutes from June 2013 meeting were approved
 Announcement of February 8, 2014, as the next meeting of the committee. The meeting
will take place in conjunction with the Transit CEOs Seminar in New Orleans.
 The location of the CEOs Lounge was announced.
9. New Business:
 APTA will hold and International Practicum on Transit Funding and Finance in 2014. Watch
for details and pre-cursor conference programs throughout the year.
 EXPO 2014 should be on everyone’s radar. Please let us know what APTA can do to
encourage CEOs to bring more agency staff to the EXPO.
 Brainstorming topics for 2014 Transit CEOs Seminar: cyber security and how to deal with a
government shut down were both mentioned as topics of interest.
 Bill Mooney reported that he is compiling a list of agency personnel involved in the
standards development program so that the committee can identify strengths and gaps.
 Chris Jenks reported that TCRP funding continues to be reduced year over year, by about
2/3 since founding.

Committee Update
January 20, 2014
Mission of the Rail Transit Committee: This committee gives overall policy and planning direction to the rail
programs. It prioritizes and gives high-level management support to the major programs of the Rail Committee
structure, and supports and facilitates information exchange in areas of common interest. Through its sponsorship
of the Rail Transit Conference, workshops and seminars, it provides a mechanism for education and sharing in
management, operations, technology and other areas of common interest to the industry.
Rail Transit Committee Overview
To date the role of the RTC is to provide work plan coordination between its subcommittees and technical
forums, and support planning for APTA conferences such as the Rail Conference. This year the RTC is
looking at developing technology portals and communication media that will help provide more visibility
of projects within the various subcommittees and technical forums. Such communication will help
provide more synergistic relationships and encourage dialog on new ideas supporting the rail transit
industry, as well as better coordination with research entities such as TRB and transit-universities. The
RTC will also encourage publication of technology summary papers to help guide the industry in
application of technology and development of needed standards and federal rules.
At regularly scheduled meetings of the RTC, chairs of subcommittees and technical forums report out on
the status of their working group projects, members discuss overarching issues relevant to rail transit,
standards activities are reviewed, reports are provided on coordination with TRB, as well as reports on
government legislation affecting public transportation.
Work Tasks for CY 2014
Technology Portal and Communication Media





Form project objectives, scope and possible resource needs
Organize leadership team including stakeholders
Form promotional piece and seek RTC approval and engagement
Prepare detailed outline of project tasks with milestones
Present the project at upcoming meetings such as the Rail Conference in June
Enhanced Integration with Standards Development

In future meetings, the RTC will be dedicating more time to discussion on the state of current and
potential technical and operational standards to help guide policy decisions of the Rail Standards
Policy and Planning Committee, responsible for setting the standards development docket within
the rail mode. This will become increasing important as FTA ramps up its safety oversight and as
new developments emerge from FRA, PRIIA, and standards development bodies such as ASME,
AREMA, AAR and IEEE.

Proposal: Developing Effective Trainers
and Standards-Based Training for Transit
In 2014 transit can take a critical next step toward an effective system of standards-based
training for skilled frontline technicians.
Faced with unprecedented needs to hire and train skilled technicians, the transit industry
has moved to meet this challenge over the past ten years. Transit has developed industrywide APTA training standards and started to create standards-based training systems.
Industry Training Consortia have already been launched for key rail tech occupations:
 Transit Elevator-Escalator (2010-2014)
 Signals (2013-2016)
Immediate Next Steps – Action Needed:
 2014: Launch a Consortium for implementing transit’s standards-based
training resources, led by Train the Trainer and Mentor Training. The
initial focus will be on upgraded training for Rail Vehicle Technicians,
building on TCRP’s pending Rail Technician Qualification System.

2015 and beyond: Training Consortia for Traction Power, Bus Maintenance,
and Track Maintenance – all consistent with the APTA reauthorization strategy.
To effectively move forward, the industry will need to:
 Expand FTA financial support and shared agency participation for the quality
technician training needed for safety, reliability and state-of-good-repair.
 Implement standards-based technical training programs across the industry to
address the transit's future needs.
The Need: Training the Equivalent of 88% of Today’s Total Staff in the Next 10 Years

APTA’s Front Line Employee Recognition Events
International Rail Rodeo – June 12-15, 2015
The APTA Rail Rodeo is an international skills competition for train operators and maintenance
personnel. The Rail Rodeo attracts approximately 15-18 Rail Transit agencies whose skills are
challenged in a series of skill-based competitions. These outstanding professionals hail from
your agencies. Your agency is the life blood of the Rodeo.
The International Rail Rodeo takes place just prior to the Rail Conference. The events mark the
culmination of the pursuit of excellence in the transportation industry throughout the year. The
achievements of all competitors are showcased. Winners achieve the pinnacle of success and are
recognized for their accomplishments at an awards banquet.
