Common use of Safety and Security Certification Clause in Contracts

Safety and Security Certification. Amtrak shall set safety and security certification requirements in writing. GDC (or the SEP if authority is so delegated pursuant to an SEP Agreement) shall have approval rights over such requirements. In determining such approval, GDC (or the SEP, if applicable) shall consider whether certification requirements are within scope of the HTP Contract Documents. Amtrak shall not place additional scope, cost, and schedule requirements through the safety and security certification process. If FRA imposes additional requirements to the safety and security certification process, such requirements would be considered non-discretionary change as described in Section 11.04(b)(i)(B).
