    NOTE: Following this is the Executive Summary to the Report on the 1999 Assessment of Amtrak's Financial Needs Through Fiscal Year 2002 (Report No. CE-1999-116). Due to the extensive length of the full report, we have not placed it on the OIG Web page. Copies of the full report will be available on Friday, July 23rd, 1999, 10 a.m. Please call Robin Redd-Miller in the Communications Office of the Inspector General at (202) 366-6872 to obtain a copy of the full report. Executive Summary 1999 Assessment of Amtrak’s Financial Needs Through 2002 In 1971, the National Railroad Passenger Corporation (Amtrak) was created by Congress to ensure that modern, efficient intercity passenger rail service would remain an integral part of the national transportation system. Since its creation, Amtrak has received $22.7 billion in Federal operating and capital subsidies. Despite this assistance, Amtrak has made only moderate progress in its attempts to eliminate dependence on Federal operating support. In 1997, Congress passed the Amtrak Reform and Accountability Act (ARAA), which established certain limits on Amtrak’s liability exposure, revised the bargaining relationship between Amtrak and its employees with respect to contracting out and labor protection, and eliminated most statutory constraints on Amtrak’s ability to restructure train routes. These changes eased constraints on Amtrak’s ability to improve its financial condition. ARAA also established a deadline of 2002 for Amtrak to improve operations sufficiently to eliminate its need for further Federal operating subsidies.1 After 2002, no funds authorized for Amtrak can be used for operating expenses,2 except for expenses associated with liabilities for Amtrak’s railroad retirement taxes that exceed the amount needed for the benefits of Amtrak retirees (“excess RRTA payments”).
