Form D's may only be dictated to employees who are:

• A. Qualified on the Operating Rules
• B. Certified on Safety Regulations
• C. Trained in Customer Service
• D. Authorized to Operate a Locomotive

Answer: (A)

Form D’s are tied to understanding and applying NORAC Operating Rules. Only someone who is qualified on those rules can properly interpret the directives on a Form D, follow the required procedures, and grasp the consequences of noncompliance. Without that rule knowledge, the instruction on the form could be misinterpreted or applied incorrectly, which could create safety risks or disrupt operations. While safety regulation certification, customer service training, or locomotive operation authorization are valuable in their own right, they do not guarantee the specific rule familiarity needed to properly handle a Form D. The operating rules qualification ensures the employee can read, understand, and enact the directive accurately.
