Federal Register / Vol. 72, No. 243 / Wednesday, December 19, 2007 / Notices
PBR; (ii) this transaction is not part of
a series of anticipated transactions that
would connect any of these rail lines
with each other or any railroad in their
corporate family; and (iii) this
transaction does not involve a Class I
carrier. Therefore, this transaction is
exempt from the prior approval
requirements of 49 U.S.C. 11323. 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
impose labor protective conditions here,
because all of the carriers involved are
Class III rail carriers.
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 effectiveness of
the exemption. Petitions for stay must
be filed no later than December 26, 2007
(at least 7 days before the exemption
becomes effective).
An original and 10 copies of all
pleadings, referring to STB Finance
Docket No. 35108, must be filed with
the Surface Transportation Board, 395 E
Street, SW., Washington, DC 20423–
0001. In addition, a copy of each
pleading must be served on John D.
Heffner, John D. Heffner, PLLC, 1750 K
Street, NW., Suite 350, Washington, DC
20006.

Decided: December 12, 2007.
By the Board, David M. Konschnik,
Director, Office of Proceedings.

Secretary.
