overhead traffic on the Line; (3) no
formal complaint filed by a user of rail
service on the Line (or by a state or local
government entity acting on behalf of
such user) regarding cessation of service
over the Line either is pending with the
Surface Transportation Board (Board) or
with any U.S. District Court or has been
decided in favor of complainant within
the two-year period; and (4) the
requirements at 49 CFR 1105.7(c)
(environmental report), 49 CFR 1105.11
(transmittal letter), 49 CFR 1105.12
(newspaper publication), and 49 CFR
1152.50(d)(1) (notice to governmental
agencies) have been met.
Where the carrier is abandoning its
entire line, the Board generally does not
impose labor protective conditions
under 49 U.S.C. 10502(g), unless the
evidence indicates the existence of: (1)
A corporate affiliate that will continue
substantially similar rail operations; or
(2) a corporate parent that will realize
substantial financial benefits over and
above relief from the burden of deficit
operations by its subsidiary railroad.
See, e.g., W. Ky. Ry.—Aban.
Exemption—in Webster, Union,
Caldwell & Crittenden Cntys., Ky., AB
449 (Sub-No. 3X), slip op. at 2 (STB
served Jan. 20, 2011). Because Knox &
Kane does not appear to have a
corporate affiliate or parent that will
continue similar operations or that will
realize substantial financial benefits
over and above relief from the burden of
deficit operations by Knox & Kane,
employee protective conditions will not
be imposed.
Provided no formal expression of
intent to file an OFA has been received,
the exemption will be effective on
August 31, 2015, unless stayed pending
reconsideration. Petitions to stay that do
not involve environmental issues,2
formal expressions of intent to file an
OFA under 49 CFR 1152.27(c)(2),3 and
trail use/rail banking requests under 49
CFR 1152.29 must be filed by August 7,
2015. Petitions to reopen or requests for
public use conditions under 49 CFR
1152.28 must be filed by August 28,
2015, with the Surface Transportation
2 The Board will grant a stay if an informed
decision on environmental issues (whether raised
by a party or by the Board’s Office of Environmental
Analysis in its independent investigation) cannot be
made before the exemption’s effective date. See
Exemption of Out-of-Serv. Rail Lines, 5 I.C.C. 2d
377 (1989). Any request for a stay should be filed
as soon as possible so that the Board may take
appropriate action before the exemption’s effective
date.
3 Each OFA must be accompanied by the filing
fee, which is currently set at $1,600. See 49 CFR
1002.2(f)(25). Although Knox & Kane suggests that
it might be appropriate for the Board to exempt this
transaction from the OFA provisions, it expressly
states that it has not sought such an exemption.

A copy of any petition filed with the
Board should be sent to Knox & Kane’s
representative: Richard R. Wilson, 518
N. Center Street, Suite 1, Ebensburg, PA
15931.
If the verified notice contains false or
misleading information, the exemption
is void ab initio.
Knox & Kane has filed environmental
and historic reports which address the
effects, if any, of the abandonment on
the environment and historic resources.
The Board’s Office of Environmental
Analysis (OEA) issued an
environmental assessment (EA) in this
proceeding, which was served on March
23, 2015. Environmental, historic
preservation, public use/rail banking
conditions will be imposed, where
appropriate, in a subsequent decision.
Pursuant to the provisions of 49 CFR
1152.29(e)(2), Knox & Kane shall file a
notice of consummation with the Board
to signify that it has exercised the
authority granted and fully abandoned
the Line. If consummation has not been
effected by Knox & Kane’s filing of a
notice of consummation by July 24,
2016, and there are no legal or
regulatory barriers to consummation,
the authority to abandon will
automatically expire.
Board decisions and notices are
available on our Web site at
‘‘WWW.STB.DOT.GOV.’’
Decided: July 24, 2015.

Director, Office of Proceedings.

OMB Number: 1513–0013.
Type of Review: Revision of a
currently approved collection.
Title: Change of Bond (Consent of
Surety).
Form: TTB F 5000.18.
Abstract: To ensure that the Federal
excise tax revenue imposed on alcohol
and tobacco products under the
provisions of chapter 51 and chapter 52
of the IRC is not jeopardized, TTB is
authorized by the IRC at 26 U.S.C. 5114,
5173, 5272, 5354, 5401, and 5711 to
require persons qualified to operate or
deal in these industries to post a bond
to ensure payment of Federal excise
taxes by the bonding company should
the proprietor default. Should the
circumstances of a proprietor’s
operation change from the original bond
agreement, TTB regulations require the
filing of form TTB F 5000.18, Change of
Bond (Consent of Surety), in lieu of
obtaining a new bond. This form is
executed by both the proprietor and the
bonding company, and it acts as an
extension of the original bond,
identifying new activities or conditions
previously not identified on the bond.
TTB F 5000.18 is executed in the same
manner as a bond and has the same
authority as a binding legal agreement to
protect the revenue.

advertising practices, the Federal
Alcohol Administration Act at 27 U.S.C.
205(e) requires that alcohol beverages
sold or introduced into interstate or
foreign commerce be labeled in
conformity with regulations issued by
the Secretary of the Treasury. Further,
the producer, bottler, or importer of
alcohol beverages must receive approval
of the label for such products from TTB
prior to their introduction into
commerce. TTB F 5100.31 is a dual-use
form; industry members use it to request
and to obtain the required label
approval. The form serves as both an
application for and, if approved by TTB,
a certificate of label approval (or
exemption from a certificate of label
approval).
Affected Public: Private Sector:
Businesses or other for-profits.

5181 and 5207 require that a proprietor
of an alcohol fuel plant (AFP) make
such application, maintain such
records, and render such reports as the
Secretary of the Treasury shall
prescribe. The TTB regulations in 27
CFR, part 19, subpart X, implement
those statutory requirements. The
information collected under these
regulations is necessary to identify and
determine that persons are qualified to
produce alcohol for fuel purposes, to
account for distilled spirits produced
and verify its proper disposition, to
keep registrations current, and to
evaluate permissible variations from
prescribed procedures.
Affected Public: Private Sector:
Businesses or other for-profits; farms.
Estimated Annual Burden Hours:
2,784.
OMB Number: 1513–0107.
Type of Review: Revision of a
currently approved collection.

Tobacco Products or Processed Tobacco.
Form: TTB F 5220.6.
Abstract: Reports on the importation
and disposition of tobacco products and
processed tobacco are used, along with
other information, to determine whether
those persons issued the permits
required by 26 U.S.C. 5713 are
complying with TTB regulations. Those
engaged in importing tobacco products

and processed tobacco are required to
account for the importation and
disposition of such products on a
monthly basis so TTB may determine if
tobacco products or processed tobacco
are being diverted for illegal purposes
and to ensure that holders of basic
permits are engaging in the operations
stated on their basic permit.
Affected Public: Private Sector:
Businesses or other for-profits.
Estimated Annual Burden Hours:

OMB Number: 1513–0118.

Beverage Products, TTB REC 5052/1.
Abstract: Section 5052 of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986 (IRC; 26 U.S.C.
5052) defines the term ‘‘beer’’ to
include, among other things, certain
traditional products such as beer, ale,
porter, and stout. The TTB regulations
require brewers to file formulas for
certain non-traditional fermented
products, including products to which
flavors, colorings, or other nonbeverage
ingredients are added (see 27 CFR
25.55). As needed, brewers file a
formula as written notice, and the TTB
regulations provide that a brewer
operating multiple breweries may file a
single formula to cover the production
of a specified fermented product at all
of their breweries.
Affected Public: Private Sector:
Businesses or other for-profits.
Estimated Annual Burden Hours:
1,326.
