Notice of Correction to the Final
Scope of Study for the Environmental
Impact Statement (EIS).
AGENCY:
ACTION:
SUMMARY: The Section of Environmental
Analysis (SEA) issued the Final Scope
of Study in the above-captioned
proceeding on April 25, 2008 and
published the Final Scope of Study in
the Federal Register on April 28, 2008.
It has come to our attention that a
statement on page 7 of the Final Scope
is confusing and open to various
interpretations.
Therefore, we will strike this
language:
Thus, the EIS will use a five-year threshold
from the date of the anticipated year of the
issuance of a final decision (2015) for
analysis of effects of increased rail traffic,
such as vehicle delay. This year was selected
because five years is not too long to produce
reasonable and reliable freight rail forecasts.

Thus, the EIS will use a year 2015
threshold for analysis of effects of increased
rail traffic, such as vehicle delay. This year
was selected because it would provide at
least five years of data to be considered in
order to produce reasonable and reliable
freight rail forecasts.
Please correct your copies
accordingly. A corrected version of the
Final Scope is available on the Board’s

Burlington Shortline Railroad, Inc.,
d/b/a Burlington Junction Railway—
Lease and Operation Exemption—
BNSF Railway Company
Burlington Shortline Railroad, Inc., d/
b/a Burlington Junction Railway (BJR), a
Class III rail carrier, has filed a verified
notice of exemption under 49 CFR
1150.41 to lease and to operate,
pursuant to an agreement with BNSF
Railway Company (BNSF),
approximately 2.5 miles of BNSF
railroad properties consisting of certain
trackage, real property, and railroad
operating rights located at Montgomery,
IL. The rail properties being leased
consist of land and tracks owned by
BNSF adjacent to and within the
Montgomery Industrial Park, located
between milepost 39.40 and milepost
40.50 on BNSF’s east-west Main 1,
Track 3998, and Main 2, track 3999, but
excluding BNSF’s Main 1, Main 2, and
the Old North Main Track 3900. In
particular, the lease agreement pertains
to track numbers 3901, 3902, 3903,
3904, the segment of track 3930 between
tracks 3900 and 3932, and the segment
of track 3930 between the northern
terminus of track 3931 and track 3942.1
BNSF is granting to BJR incidental
trackage rights for interchange purposes
over track 3900 (the Old North Main)
between track numbers 3904 and 3930.
BNSF is also assigning to BJR its
contractual rights to operate over certain

acquire and operate the subject rail properties in

Burlington Junction Railway Company—Acquisition
and Operation Exemption—BNSF Railway
Company, STB Finance Docket No. 35121 (STB
served Apr. 3, 2008, and published at 73 FR 18322).
Ozinga Bros., Inc., filed a petition to reject or stay
the exemption, and the Board issued a
housekeeping stay on April 16, 2008, in that docket
to allow time to consider any replies and to make
an informed decision. BJR requested permission to
withdraw that notice on April 21, 2008, and
concurrently filed the instant notice clarifying that
the acquisition transaction was by lease rather than
purchase and explaining in more detail the
involved rail property and the proposed
transaction. By decision served on April 29, 2008,
the Board granted BJR’s withdrawal request,
discontinued the proceeding in STB Finance Docket
No. 35121, and vacated the stay in that proceeding
as moot.

BJR, in turn, is granting BNSF
interchange rights for the use of BJR’s
leased yard tracks at Montgomery, IL,
for the sole purpose of interchanging
traffic between the parties on track
numbers 3901 and 3902.
The earliest this exemption can be
consummated is May 21, 2008, the
effective date of the exemption (30 days
after the exemption is filed).
BJR certifies that its projected annual
revenues as a result of this transaction
will not exceed those that qualify it as
a Class III rail carrier and will not
exceed $5 million.
Pursuant to the Consolidated
Appropriations Act, 2008, Public Law
110–161, section 193, 121 Stat. 1844
(2007), nothing in this decision
authorizes the following activities at any
solid waste rail transfer facility:
Collecting, storing or transferring solid
waste outside of its original shipping
container; or separating or processing
solid waste (including baling, crushing,
compacting and shredding). The term
‘‘solid waste’’ is defined in section 1004
of the Solid Waste Disposal Act, 42
U.S.C. 6903.
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 to stay must be
filed by no later than May 14, 2008 (at
least 7 days before the exemption
becomes effective).
An original and 10 copies of all
pleadings, referring to STB Finance
Docket No. 35136, must be filed with
the Surface Transportation Board, 395 E
Street, SW., Washington, DC 20423–
