Clear that the division has the power to exercise its discretion to do that. There are a number of other issues that we would consider procedural in nature that would be part of the scope of this review process, including whether the division should use warning letters, more frequently than it currently does brady will remember jesse minardi, submitted Public Comment requesting that the division do explicitly that. At the bottom of page four we have set out the policy, or rather the process that we intend to pursue here. Staff have already begun to evaluate what other jurisdictions are doing in terms of a streamlined process. We are also initiating internal conversations, consulting with members of a compliance staff who have ideas about how their own programs are, or are not functioning well and which of the provisions of the programs that they oversee might be suitable for streamline resolutions.

Im interested in keeping them safe not only as a get on and off school buses but in keeping them safe in the streets as they go to school.

In your investigation of the oakland bus fire, you noted that the School Bus Engine designs often failed to mitigate the spread of gases into the passenger compartment. That can exacerbate a situation involving a fire, but can you speak to whether or not these fumes can regularly enter into the passenger compartment even in the absence of a fire . Our investigation, of course, focused on the postcrash fire this that event and when there was that significant fire in the engine compartment how the incomplete fire wall led to the fire being able to spread into the passenger compartment. Can you comment on the entrance of fumes into the bus cavity . The ntsb currently does not have a position on that aspect. Okay. Thank you. I yield back,
