  1. BRIEFING PRESENTATION Safety and Security Management Plans (SSMPs) for Major Capital Projects

  2. U.S. DOT Federal Transit Administration What is a Safety and Security Management Plan (SSMP)?

  3. U.S. DOT Federal Transit Administration Safety and Security Management Plans (SSMPs) • Required for major capital projects, as defined in 49 CFR Part 633.5, as a component of the Project Management Plan (PMP) • Written by recipients of federal financial assistance to describe how safety and security will be addressed in their major capital projects • Must cover initial project planning through initiation of revenue service • Must be developed and submitted to FTA for review and approval • FTA approval of SSMP must be received prior the recipient receiving approval to enter the next project phase

  4. U.S. DOT Federal Transit Administration Why are SSMPs necessary?

  5. U.S. DOT Federal Transit Administration Purpose of SSMP requirement is to… • Establish a consistent baseline for the management of safety and security activities • Specify minimum safety and security management activities to be performed and documented by the recipient during each project phase • Ensure safety and security are adequately addressed in all project development phases

  6. U.S. DOT Federal Transit Administration FTA Safety and Security Management Guidance Circular 5800.1

  7. U.S. DOT Federal Transit Administration FTA Safety and Security Management Guidance Circular 5800.1 • Becomes effective August 1, 2007 • Cancels previous guidance • Applies to recipients of major capital projects that are initiated after, or are in the preliminary engineering or earlier phases of project development as of August 1, 2007

  8. U.S. DOT Federal Transit Administration Circular 5800.1 has been developed to… • Provide safety and security management guidance to recipients with major capital projects covered by 49 CFR Part 633 • Explain why SSMPs are necessary • Identify the specific safety and security activities that must be performed and documented by the recipient in the SSMP • Provide guidance to recipients for achieving compliance with FTA’s safety and security management requirements

  9. U.S. DOT Federal Transit Administration Circular 5800.1 does not apply to… • Small Starts and Very Small Starts projects unless FTA’s Administrator determines that a PMP is necessary • Recipients with major capital projects involving the rehabilitation or modernization of existing fixed guideway with total project costs in excess of $100 million, and initiated before August 1, 2007 • Recipients with major capital projects involving construction of new fixed guideway or extensions of existing fixed guideway that are in final design or later phases as of August 1, 2007 • Recipients with major capital projects designated by the Administrator, and initiated before August 1, 2007

  10. U.S. DOT Federal Transit Administration Cancellation of previous SSMP guidance is through a two phased approach… • Recipients in the final design or later phases of project development as of August 1, 2007 will continue to follow the previous guidance • Recipients with projects in preliminary engineering or earlier phases as of August 1, 2007 will follow Circular 5800.1 guidance

  11. U.S. DOT Federal Transit Administration Required Safety and Security Management Activities

  33. U.S. DOT Federal Transit Administration Section 4: Safety and Security Analysis (continued) • MIL-STD-882 is the most frequently used approach for hazard analysis in transit • Degrees of Hazard Severity are defined as follows: • Category I, Catastrophic – could result in death, permanent total disability, loss exceeding $1 million, or irreversible environmental damage • Category II, Critical – could result in permanent total disability, injuries or occupational illnesses resulting in hospitalization of 2 or more persons, loss exceeding $200,000, but less than $1 million, or reversible environmental damage • Category III, Marginal - could result in injury or occupational illness resulting in one or more lost workdays, loss exceeding $10,000, but less than $200,000, or mitigatible environmental damage without violation of law or regulation where restoration activities can be accomplished • Category IV, Negligible - could result in injury or illness not resulting in a lost work day, loss exceeding $2,000, but less than $10,000, or minimal environmental damage not violating law or regulation

  34. U.S. DOT Federal Transit Administration Section 4: Safety and Security Analysis (continued) • Degrees of Hazard Probability are defined as follows: • A, Frequent - Likely to occur often in the life of an item, with a probability of occurrence greater than 10-1 in that life. Continuously experienced in fleet. • B, Probable - Likely to occur several times in the life of an item, with a probability of occurrence less than 10-1 by greater than 10-2 in that life. Will occur frequently in fleet. • C, Occasional - Likely to occur some time in the life of an item, with a probability of occurrence less than 10-2 but greater than 10-3 in that life. Will occur several times in the life of the fleet. • D, Remote - Unlikely but possible to occur in the life of an item, with a probability of occurrence less than 10-3 but greater than 10-6 in that life. Unlikely, but can reasonably be expected to occur in the fleet. • E, Unlikely - So unlikely to occur in the lifetime of an item, it can be assumed occurrence will not be experienced, with a probability of occurrence less than 10-6 in that life. Unlikely to occur in the fleet, but possible

  35. U.S. DOT Federal Transit Administration Section 4: Safety and Security Analysis (continued) • Hazard risk classification combines the hazard severity and probability characteristics into a single hazard risk index

  36. U.S. DOT Federal Transit Administration Section 4: Safety and Security Analysis (continued) • Hazard risk classification combines the hazard severity and probability characteristics into a single hazard risk index
