  • Abstract:
    The Department of Transportation?s (DOT) Research and Special Programs Administration (RSPA) began research in to assess the vulnerabilities of the nation?s transportation infrastructure and develop needed improvements in security in June 2001. The goals of RSPA?s Transportation Infrastructure Assurance program are to identify, and develop ways mitigate the impact of, threats to the nation?s transportation infrastructure. The program is scheduled to end in December 2003 after the completion of four transportation vulnerability assessments. DOT?s Office of Intelligence and Security is responsible for defining the requirements for transportation infrastructure protection, ensuring that vulnerability assessments of transportation infrastructure are conducted, and taking action to mitigate those vulnerabilities. The House Committee on Appropriations asked GAO to determine (1) the status and anticipated results of the Transportation Infrastructure Assurance (TIA) program, and (2) the extent to which RSPA and the Office of Intelligence and Security have coordinated their activities selecting the vulnerabilities to be assessed and implementing the vulnerability assessments for the program. DOT and RSPA officials reviewed a draft of the report, agreed with its contents, and provided technical clarifications that have been incorporated.
