NTSB To Put ALL Accident Investigation Information Online

FULL Disclosure -- Site To Be Active June 1st

The National Transportation Safety Board has announced that it will begin placing all investigation public dockets to the NTSB public website beginning June 1, 2009, in accordance with the NTSB Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) Improvement Plan. The agency says his effort "serves to further bring the Safety Board into compliance with a number of legislative and executive mandates aimed at improving the U.S. government's use of electronic media to foster a more open and transparent government."

Meaning they'll be using the web to provide information quickly and comply with the law.

Acting Chairman Mark V. Rosenker (pictured below) said in a statement "I am proud that the NTSB is taking this enormous step forward by making all accident investigation documents contained in our public dockets available to NTSB website visitors. The Safety Board's reputation for comprehensive and thorough investigations can only be further enhanced by providing such easy access to the materials related to the accidents we investigate."

To access the NTSB's public dockets, you can visit the FOIA Electronic Reading Room on the NTSB website and select the list of dockets that are organized by transportation mode. 

Most of our readers, we're sure, will be most interested in the "Aviation" section, but that's just a guess.
