Abstract of Proposed Collection
The goal of the ‘‘Self Certification
And Ability To Perform In
Emergencies’’ (ESCAPE) program is to
ensure that non-federal individuals who
are being considered for a contracted
position at a designated post are capable
of the unique, potentially challenging
and life threatening conditions at
ESCAPE posts. These individuals are
required to review with a medical
provider the pre-deployment
acknowledgement form (DS–6570) and
then affirm that they understand the
physical rigors and security conditions
at these posts and can perform any
specified emergency functions. Medical
information is collected from medical
providers and respondents during this
review. The Department of State is
requesting approval of this Information
Collection so non-federal individuals
who will be selected for assignments
can provide completed pre-deployment
medical information. This Collection is
allowed under the Foreign Service Act
of 1980 (22 U.S.C. 3901) and the Basic
Authorities Act of 1956 (22 U.S.C.
2651).
Methodology
The information collected will be
collected using a form (DS–6570) during
a medical review between a non-federal
individual and his/her medical
provider. The individual will submit the
completed form, signed by both the
individual and provider, to the Bureau
of Medical Services at the U.S.
Department of States.

SURFACE TRANSPORTATION BOARD
[Docket No. FD 35187 (Sub-No. 1)]
Grand Elk Railroad, Inc.—Acquisition
of Incidental Trackage Rights
Exemption—Norfolk Southern Railway
Company
Grand Elk Railroad, Inc. (GDLK), a
Class III rail carrier, has filed a verified
notice of exemption under 49 CFR
1150.41 to acquire by assignment from
Norfolk Southern Railway Company
(NSR) trackage rights over
PO 00000
Frm 00079
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
approximately 3.3 miles of rail line
owned by CSX Transportation, Inc.
(CSXT) in Grand Rapids, Mich. (the
Line). The Line extends from milepost
CH 151.3± at Pleasant Street through
milepost CH 151.6/CGE 0.0 to milepost
CGE 3.0± north of Ann Street in Grand
Rapids, Mich.
GDLK states that the subject trackage
rights conveyance was incidental to
GDLK’s 2009 lease and operation of
NSR-owned railroad lines extending
generally from Grand Rapids, Mich., to
Elkhart, Ind., but was inadvertently
omitted from GDLK’s notice of
exemption for that transaction. See
Grand Elk R.R.—Lease & Operation
Exemption—Norfolk S. Ry., FD 35187
(STB served Nov. 17, 2008). GLDK states
that it has filed this notice to obtain
proper agency authority for the prior
assignment of trackage rights over the
CSXT Line. (Notice 2.) GDLK contends
that it operated pursuant to the CSXT
Line trackage rights from its start-up in
2009 until August 10, 2016, when CSXT
denied GDLK access to the line. (Notice
3). According to GDLK, CSXT is
disputing the 2009 assignment and
GDLK is addressing CSXT’s contractual
arguments in state court.1 (Id.) GLDK
states that it is seeking retroactive Board
authorization to assure that the court is
fully able to address the matters before
it. (Id.) GDLK states that the transaction
does not involve any provision or
agreement that would limit future
interchange with a third-party
connecting carrier.
GDLK states that its projected annual
revenues as a result of this transaction
will not result in the creation of a Class
II or Class I rail carrier, but that its
projected annual revenues would
exceed $5 million. Accordingly, GDLK
is required, at least 60 days before this
exemption is to become effective, to
send notice of the transaction to the
national offices of the labor unions with
employees on the affected lines, post a
copy of the notice at the workplace of
the employees on the affected lines, and
certify to the Board that it has done so.
49 CFR 1150.42(e).
In addition to its verified notice of
exemption, GDLK has filed a petition for
waiver of the 60-day labor notice
requirements of 49 CFR 1150.42(e),
asserting that: (1) No employees would
be affected by the Board’s authorization
1 GDLK acknowledges that the authority invoked
by its notice is permissive and that issuance of this
notice is not determinative of the disputed trackage
rights contract issues. (Notice 6 n.3 (citing Wis.
Cent. Ltd.—Trackage Rights Exemption—Lines of
Union Pac. R.R., FD 35992 (STB served Mar. 4,
2016), and Rock & Rail, Inc.—Acquis. & Operation
Exemption—Burlington N. & Santa Fe. Ry., FD
33738 (STB served Apr. 30, 1999).)
