no formal complaint filed by a user of
rail service on the line (or by a state or

environmental and historic preservation
matters must be filed within 15 days
after the EA becomes available to the

conditions will be imposed, where
appropriate, in a subsequent decision.
Pursuant to the provisions of 49 CFR
1152.29(e)(2), IC shall file a notice of
consummation with the Board to signify
that it has exercised the authority
granted and fully abandoned the line. If
