At the federal level, the Federal Railroad Administration (FRA), the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), and the Department of Transportation (DOT) share regulatory responsibility for railroad safety with the FRA having the responsibility for primary oversight. Each state has regulatory bodies that regulate and inspect railroad operations in their state.
