ACTION:
Notice of decision.
SUMMARY: On November 23, 2005, the

2004 revenue adequacy determinations
for the Nation’s Class I railroads. One

The Board
is required to make an annual
determination of railroad revenue
adequacy. A railroad is considered
revenue adequate under 49 U.S.C.
10704(a) if it achieves a rate of return on
net investment equal to at least the
current cost of capital for the railroad
industry for 2004, determined to be
10.1% in Railroad Cost of Capital—
2004, STB Ex Parte No. 558 (Sub-No. 8)
(STB served June 30, 2005). This
revenue adequacy standard was applied
to each Class I railroad, and one carrier
was found to be revenue adequate for
2004.
The Board’s decision is posted on the
Board’s Web site, https://
www.stb.dot.gov. In addition, copies of
the decision may be purchased from

Environmental and Energy
Considerations
This action will not significantly
affect either the quality of the human
environment or the conservation of
energy resources.
Regulatory Flexibility Analysis
Pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 603(b), we
conclude that our action in this
proceeding will not have a significant
economic impact on a substantial
number of small entities. The purpose
and effect of the action is merely to
update the annual railroad industry
revenue adequacy finding. No new
reporting or other regulatory
requirements are imposed, directly or
indirectly, on small entities.
Decided: November 17, 2005.
