(a) Crossing sale. Any railroad that sells all or part of a highway-rail or pathway crossing shall submit to the Crossing Inventory an Inventory Form, or its electronic equivalent, which reflects the crossing sale. The updated Inventory Form, or its electronic equivalent, shall be submitted to the Crossing Inventory in accordance with Sec. 234.403 no later than three (3) months after the date of sale or March 7, 2016, whichever occurs later.

(b) Crossing closure. Within three (3) months after the closure of any highway-rail or pathway crossing reported to the Crossing Inventory or March 7, 2016, whichever occurs later, the primary operating railroad shall submit an Inventory Form, or its electronic equivalent, that reflects closure of the crossing to the Crossing Inventory, in accordance with the Inventory Guide and Sec. 234.403.

(c) Changes in crossing characteristics. (1) Within three (3) months of any change in crossing surface or change in warning device at any public highway-rail grade crossing or March 7, 2016, whichever occurs later, the primary operating railroad shall submit an Inventory Form, or its electronic equivalent, that reflects up-to-date and accurate crossing data for the crossing (including the change in crossing surface or change in warning device) to the Crossing Inventory, in accordance with the Inventory Guide and Sec. 234.403.

(1) Within three (3) months of any change in crossing surface or change in warning device at any public highway-rail grade crossing or March 7, 2016, whichever occurs later, the primary operating railroad shall submit an Inventory Form, or its electronic equivalent, that reflects up-to-date and accurate crossing data for the crossing (including the change in crossing surface or change in warning device) to the Crossing Inventory, in accordance with the Inventory Guide and Sec. 234.403.

The installation of a crossbuck, yield or stop sign, flashing lights, or gates that will be in place for less than six months does not constitute a ``change in warning device'' for purposes of this subpart.
