Summary
Local Rail Service Reauthorizing Act - Amends the Department of Transportation Act with respect to local rail service assistance to authorize appropriations for FY 1988 through 1991. Decreases the Federal share of rail service assistance program costs from 70 percent to 50 percent. Provides that the Federal share of costs to rehabilitate rail properties for the purpose of facilitating rail freight service shall be 70 percent. Modifies the eligibility criteria for Federal assistance to States for rail freight financial assistance programs to allow the Interstate Commerce Commission to exempt certain rail line abandonments or service discontinuances from the current requirement that they be specifically authorized by the Commission. States that, effective October 1, 1988, all funds appropriated for State rail service assistance, with specified exceptions, shall be available to the Secretary of Transportation for rail service assistance projects meeting specified requirements. Reduces from $100,000 to $36,000 the amount of funds to which a State is entitled for its rail plan implementation. Directs the Secretary to: (1) establish procedures to ensure that funds for rail service assistance projects are distributed by April 1 of the fiscal year for which they are appropriated; and (2) report to the Congress on the status of funds which are not distributed by such date.
