and will amend and supplement certain
other terms and conditions of the lease
arrangement between DMVW and CPR.
DMVW will continue to retain the
following trackage rights that it acquired
by assignment from CPR in 1990: (1)
CPR’s trackage rights over the line of
railroad owned jointly by CPR and the
BNSF Railway Company (BNSF)
between approximately milepost 549.64
at Rival and milepost 582.3 at Crosby,
which allows DMVW to operate
between the Flaxton-Rival and CrosbyWhitetail segments that it leases from
CPR; (2) CPR’s trackage rights over the
short branch line owned jointly by CPR
and BNSF that connects the FlaxtonWhitetail main line with the short CPR
track at Columbus, ND; and (3) CPR’s
trackage rights over the line of railroad
owned by BNSF between McKenzie, ND
and Bismarck, which enables DMVW to
connect its operations on the BismarckMax segment with its operations on the
Moffit-Hankinson segment via the line
of railroad owned by DMVW between
McKenzie and Moffit.
DMVW certifies that its projected
revenues as a result of this transaction
will not result in the creation of a Class
II or Class I rail carrier.
DMVW indicates that the parties
intend to consummate the transaction
on or soon after the date this exemption
becomes effective in recognition of the
fact that the date of effectiveness
depends on whether a related petition
for waiver is granted.1
If the verified notice contains false or
misleading information, the exemption
is void ab initio. Petitions to revoke the
exemption under 49 U.S.C. 10502(d)
may be filed at any time. The filing of
a petition to revoke will not
automatically stay the transaction.
An original and 10 copies of all
pleadings, referring to STB Finance
Docket No. 34904, must be filed with
the Surface Transportation Board, 1925
K Street, NW., Washington, DC 20423–

1 In a decision in this proceeding served on July
24, 2006, the Board granted a request by DMVW for
waiver of the 60-day advance labor notice
requirement of 49 CFR 1150.42(e). The exemption
became effective on the service date of that
decision.

Lackawaxen-Honesdale Shippers
Association, Inc.—Acquisition of
Control Exemption—Stourbridge
Railroad Company, Inc.
Lackawaxen-Honesdale Shippers
Association, Inc. (LHSA), has filed a
verified notice of exemption to acquire
control of Stourbridge Railroad
Company, Inc. (Stourbridge), from Mr.
Richard D. Robey. Stourbridge is a Class
III railroad, providing rail service on the
Honesdale Branch, which extends from
Lackawaxen, PA, to Honesdale, PA.1
The transaction was scheduled to be
consummated on or after July 7, 2006,
the effective date of the exemption (7
days after the exemption was filed).
As a result of this transaction, LHSA
will own and control the stock of
Stourbridge, which will continue to
operate the Honesdale Branch.2 LHSA
states that it owns no other rail lines or
railroads, and therefore, Stourbridge
does not connect with any other railroad
owned or operated by LHSA. LHSA also
states that the acquisition of control of
Stourbridge is not part of a series of
anticipated transactions that would
connect that railroad with any other
railroad owned by LHSA. In addition,
the transaction does not involve a Class
I carrier. Therefore, the transaction is
exempt from the prior approval
requirements of 49 U.S.C. 11323–25. See
49 CFR 1180.2(d)(2).
Under 49 U.S.C. 10502(g), the Board
may not use its exemption authority to
relieve a rail carrier of its statutory
obligation to protect the interests of its
employees. Section 11326(c), however,
does not provide for labor protection for
transactions under sections 11324 and
11325 that involve only Class III rail
carriers. Accordingly, the Board may not

reflects the current value of funds to the
Treasury for use in connection with
Federal Cash Management systems and

1227. The rate is computed each year by
averaging Treasury Tax and Loan
(TT&L) investment rates for the 12month period ending every September
30, rounded to the nearest whole
percentage, for applicability effective
each January 1. The rate is subject to
quarterly revisions if the annual
average, on a moving basis, changes by
2 percentage points, which is the case
for the quarter ending June 30, 2006.
Therefore, the rate in effect for the
period July 1, 2006 through December
31, 2006 reflects the average investment
rates for the 12-month period that ended
June 30, 2006.
