Report to Congress.
PUBLIC LAW 95-607—NOV. 8, 1978 "(8) The Secretary shall, in consultation with the Association, conduct a study to determine the best means of compensating the Corporation fop liabilities which it may incur for damages to persons or property, resulting from the operation of rail passenger service required to be operated pursuant to this subsection or section 303 (b)(2) of this title, which are not underwritten by private insurance carriers or are not indemnified by a State (or local or regional transportation authority). Such study shall identify the nature of the risks to the Corporation, the probable degree of uninsurability of such risks, and the desirability and feasibility of various indemnification programs, including subsidy offers made pursuant to this section, selfinsurance through a passenger tax or other mechanism, or government indemnification for such liabilities. Within one year after the date of enactment of this paragraph, the Secretary shall prepare a report with appropriate recommendations and shall submit such report to the Congress. Such report shall specify the most appropriate means of indemnifying the Corporation for such liabilities in a manner which shall prevent the cross-subsidization of passenger services with revenues from freight services operated by the Corporation.".
