Bill > HB3388

This bill amends Oklahoma law to require railroad companies to construct and maintain railroad crossings in accordance with the recommendations set forth in the United States Department of Transportation Railroad-Highway Grade Crossing Handbook. The bill also changes the notification process, requiring the Oklahoma Corporation Commission to notify the railroad company or corporation if the crossing needs to be constructed or maintained, rather than the previous requirement of notification by a local official or group of citizens. If the railroad company or corporation fails to comply, they will be subject to a contempt proceeding before the Oklahoma Corporation Commission.
