Requires railroad corporations operating freight trains in New York to notify the Division of Homeland Security and Emergency Services, Department of Environmental Conservation, and Department of Transportation before transporting hazardous materials on state tracks

Mandates railroads provide the same information required for local municipalities under the federal Fixing America's Surface Transportation Act (Public Law 114-94) and promptly update hazardous waste manifests

Classifies all information provided under this requirement as confidential and exempt from disclosure under the Freedom of Information Law (Article 6 of Public Officers Law)

Takes effect 30 days after becoming law, with automatic repeal if a federal agency determines the law would make New York ineligible for federal funds or a court finds it conflicts with federal law
