That assessment is set to begin in June and be completed this fall.
Schwichtenberg most recently served as senior director of regulatory and operating practices at Canadian National Railway. Prior to that, he was a deputy administrator for the Federal Railroad Administration. He began his career with Union Pacific and held various engineering positions.
