Not later than February 15 of each year, Amtrak shall submit to the Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure of the House of Representatives and the Committee on Environment and Public Works of the Senate a report on any such engagement in the preceding calendar year, and any changes to policies, structures, or operations affecting access to recreational trails that were considered or made as a result.
The report shall include Amtrak’s plans to mitigate the impact to such access. .
