‍‍Policy on Entertainment - The NRC Board of Directors has adopted a Policy on Entertainment to provide all NRC Conference and NRC-REMSA Exhibition ("Conference") attendees an equal opportunity to participate in the entertainment of our railroad, transit, commuter, passenger and other customers, speakers, and guests.

The Policy applies to events in connection with the Conference. During this timeframe, private hospitality events on or off the Conference premises are not permitted and no organized private entertainment is permitted while conference proceedings or events are occurring. Attendees are encouraged to participate in the common hospitality events and may not organize events that compete with the conference program.

All Attendees are expected to comply with this Policy. By registering for the Conference, you are certifying that all representatives and associates who are attending the Conference on behalf of your organization have been notified of this Policy and will observe and abide by it.

Scam Alert - We ask conference attendees to be vigilant of scams, including any solicitations via email that offer hotel deals or registration lists on behalf of the NRC. These groups are not affiliated with the NRC. Please check the NRC website or email NRC staff directly for the most up-to-date conference information.

IGNORE FRAUDULENT ATTENDEE LIST PROVIDERS
It has come to our attention that scammers have been contacting NRC conference attendees and exhibitors and identifying themselves as having access to attendee lists. NRC does NOT sell its attendee lists to any vendors or other third parties. Anyone attempting to sell you this information is fraudulent and not part of the NRC organization. The NRC strongly recommends that all conference registrants disregard such emails. To report a fraudulent solicitation, use the Federal Trade Commission reporting website.
