                                 BILL NUMBER:  S2666

 TITLE OF BILL :  An act to amend the executive law, in relation to
creation of security measures for the transportation facilities of the
metropolitan transportation authority

 PURPOSE OR GENERAL IDEA OF BILL :

To create security measures that would prevent persons from causing
harm through the damage and destruction of the critical infrastructure
of the Metropolitan Transportation Authority.

 SUMMARY OF SPECIFIC PROVISIONS :

Section 1 amends paragraph (q) of subdivision 2 of section 709 of the
executive law to include any public authority or public benefit
corporation among the offices from which the Division of Homeland
Security and Emergency Services may request data or services.

Section 2 adds a new section 719 to the Executive Law requiring the
Commissioner of Homeland Security and Emergency Services to review
security measures taken by the MTA and issue a report on the findings.
The Commissioner would be empowered to mandate compliance with the
recommendations of the report.

 JUSTIFICATION :

Recent events have exposed the vulnerability of our mass transit
system to potential dangers. In light of this, it is particularly
important to enact the proper security measures to our transit
infrastructure so that public transit is safe and with security
measures that are not an undue burden on law enforcement agencies. A
thorough review of the security of the MTA is a crucial first step in
achieving those goals.
