SURFACE TRANSPORTATION BOARD

Brandon Railroad, L.L.C.—
Abandonment Exemption—in Douglas
County, NE
On February 16, 2016, Brandon
Railroad, L.L.C. (BRR), filed with the
Surface Transportation Board (Board) a
petition under 49 U.S.C. 10502 for
exemption from the prior approval
requirements of 49 U.S.C. 10903 to
abandon 17.3 miles of rail lines (the
Lines) located in Douglas County, Neb.
The Lines traverse United States Postal
Service Zip Code 68107.
According to BRR, there is currently
one company, United States Cold
Storage, Inc. (Cold Storage), that could
potentially use common carrier rail
service. In August 2015, BRR entered
into a long-term Confidential Private
Transportation Services Agreement with
Cold Storage in the event Cold Storage
decides to once again utilize rail service.
Additionally, GBW Railcar Services,
LLC (GBW), utilizes the Lines to provide
private carriage for the rail cars moving
to and from its repair facilities on the
Lines. Once the proposed abandonment
is authorized by the Board and
consummated, the Lines will continue
to be used by GBW to provide private
carriage and by BRR to provide contract
(not common carrier) service for Cold
Storage.
BRR states that the Lines do not
contain federally granted rights-of-way.
Any documentation in BRR’s possession
will be made available to those
requesting it.
The interest of railroad employees
will be protected by the conditions set
forth in Oregon Short Line Railroad—
Abandonment Portion Goshen Branch
Between Firth & Ammon, in Bingham &
Bonneville Counties, Idaho, 360 I.C.C.
91 (1979).
By issuance of this notice, the Board
is instituting an exemption proceeding
VerDate Sep<11>2014

Jkt 238001
pursuant to 49 U.S.C. 10502(b). A final
decision will be issued by June 3, 2016.
Any offer of financial assistance
(OFA) under 49 CFR 1152.27(b)(2) will
be due no later than June 13, 2016, or
10 days after service of a decision
granting the petition for exemption,
whichever occurs first. Each OFA must
be accompanied by a $1,600 filing fee.1
All interested persons should be
aware that, following abandonment, the
Lines may be suitable for other public
use, including interim trail use. Any
request for a public use condition under
49 CFR 1152.28 or for interim trail use/
rail banking under 49 CFR 1152.29 will
be due no later March 24, 2016. Each
interim trail use request must be
accompanied by a $300 filing fee.2
All filings in response to this notice
must refer to Docket No. AB 1182X and
must be sent to: (1) Surface
Transportation Board, 395 E Street SW.,
Washington, DC 20423–0001; and (2)
Karl Morell, Karl Morell & Associates,
655 Fifteenth Street NW., Suite 225,
Washington, DC 20005. Replies to the
petition are due on or before March 24,
2016.
Persons seeking further information
concerning abandonment procedures
may contact the Board’s Office of Public
Assistance, Governmental Affairs, and
Compliance at (202) 245–0238 or refer
to the full abandonment or
discontinuance regulations at 49 CFR pt.

upon any agencies or other persons who
commented during its preparation.
Other interested persons may contact
OEA to obtain a copy of the EA (or EIS).
