The Secretary must create procedures for States to submit their State rail plans for review, including a standardized format and standard data requirements. There's also a grandfather rule: any State rail plan finished before the Passenger Rail Investment and Improvement Act of 2008 became law is treated as meeting this chapter's requirements — but only if the Secretary decides that plan substantially meets them.
