When a Republican lawmaker in 2011 asked an Obama administration Office of Management and Budget official to name regulations where costs were not justified by benefits, the official had a ready answer. Sunstein's pooh-poohing of PTC in 2011 is all the more remarkable because the Obama administration's efforts to push forward regulations in a variety of areas -- notably air pollution and climate change -- against Republican accusations that they would cripple the economy. Republican lawmakers, the railroad lobby and even conservative columnist George Will were quick to pounce on Sunstein's words, using them in their battle against what they viewed as over-zealous regulation. PTC is a system in which a network of transponders tracks train movement and speed, and sends wireless signals to locomotives that can slow or halt trains traveling at dangerous speeds. The 2008 law mandated that PTC become operational by Dec. 31, 2015. [...] the railroad lobby has fought for an extension, arguing installation of PTC is too complicated to meet the year-end deadline.
