AGENDA ITEM TYPE:
Report
RECOMMENDATION:
Informational report for discussion.
BACKGROUND:
The 2025 Internal Audit Plan, which was approved by the Audit Committee on March 10, 2025, includes a Commuter Rail Safety Audit. This is an annual audit required by the UTA Commuter Rail Safety Plan, and the procedures are primarily based on checklists published by the Federal Transit Administration, modified for use in Commuter Rail. Internal Audit is limited to reporting on observations with recommendations. It is the decision of the Safety department what observations, if any, require corrective action plans. The Federal Railroad Administration reviews the results of the audits and evaluates how management addresses issues. Accountability to Agency Governance for this audit will go to the Board of Trustees through the Safety Department. The purpose of this report is to inform the Audit Committee that this specific project on the 2025 Internal Audit Plan has been completed.
DISCUSSION:
Internal Audit will report on the completion of the audit.
