Updating your 243 Plan Just Got Easier

It's been almost a year since 49 CFR Part 243 has gone into effect for contractors and short line railroads. And for many, there is already a need to update your FRA 243 submissions, which just got easier. You can now make courses inactive in the FRA 243 submission portal.

First Edit a Course

Find the course you want to make in edit and select the pencil icon.

Then select Make Course Inactive

That's it, it is just two simple steps.

Why Make a Course Inactive?

If you are no longer using a course or it was originally submitted by mistake, this is a great new feature in the FRA Portal to make sure FRA has accurate information about the courses you are using under 49 CFR Part 243.
