BY THE COMPTROLLER GENERAL



Report To The Congress

OF THE UNITED STATES





ICC's Enforcement Program Can Be More

Effective In Halting Violations And

Preventing Their Recurrence




Civil penalty settlements and court actions are
the two most common methods used by the
Interstate Commerce Commission to enforce
compliance with interstate transportation reg-
ulations. Yet their effectiveness is limited by
nonapplicability  in cases involving  many
tariff- and service-related violations, small and
untimely settlements, problems with U.S.
attorneys' handling of referred cases, and lack
of followup investigations.

While proposals for regulatory reform may
eliminate enforcement of certain regulations,
the need to deter violations of other regula-
tions will remain. Thus, actions to strengthen
ICC's enforcement program will be important.

Congressional and agency actions are needed.
