Sault Ste. Marie Bridge Company—
Abandonment Exemption—In
Dickinson County, MI
Sault Ste. Marie Bridge Company
(SSMB)1 has filed a verified notice of
exemption under 49 CFR 1152 subpart
F–Exempt Abandonments to abandon
an 0.64 mile rail line between mileposts
29.60 and 30.24 in Iron Mountain,
Dickinson County, MI. The line
traverses United States Postal Service
Zip Code 49801.
SSMB has certified that: (1) No local
traffic has moved over the line for at
least 2 years; (2) there is no overhead
traffic on the line that would have to be
rerouted over other lines; (3) no formal
complaint filed by a user of rail service
on the line (or by a state or local
government entity acting on behalf of
such user) regarding cessation of service
over the line is pending either with the
Surface Transportation Board or with
any U.S. District Court or has been
decided in favor of complainant within
the 2-year period; and (4) the
requirements at 49 CFR 1105.7
(environmental report), 49 CFR 1105.8
(historic report), 49 CFR 1105.11
(transmittal letter), 49 CFR 1105.12
(newspaper publication), and 49 CFR
1152.50(d)(1) (notice to governmental
agencies) have been met.
As a condition to this exemption, any
employee adversely affected by the
abandonment shall be protected under
Oregon Short Line R. Co.—
Abandonment—Goshen, 360 I.C.C. 91
(1979). To address whether this
condition adequately protects affected
employees, a petition for partial
revocation under 49 U.S.C. 10502(d)
must be filed.
Provided no formal expression of
intent to file an offer of financial
assistance (OFA) has been received, this
exemption will be effective on August
21, 2008, unless stayed pending
reconsideration. Petitions to stay that do

not involve environmental issues,2
formal expressions of intent to file an
OFA under 49 CFR 1152.27(c)(2),3 and
trail use/rail banking requests under 49
CFR 1152.29 must be filed by August 1,
2008. Petitions to reopen or requests for
public use conditions under 49 CFR
1152.28 must be filed by August 11,
2008, with the Surface Transportation
Board, 395 E Street, SW., Washington,
DC 20423–0001.
A copy of any petition filed with the
Board should be sent to SSMB’s
representative: Thomas J. Healey, 17641
S. Ashland Ave., Homewood, IL 60430–
1345.
If the verified notice contains false or
misleading information, the exemption
is void ab initio.
SSMB has filed both an
environmental report and a historic
report that address the effects, if any, of
the abandonment on the environment
and historic resources. SEA will issue
an environmental assessment (EA) by
July 25, 2008. Interested persons may
obtain a copy of the EA by writing to
SEA (Room 1100, Surface
Transportation Board, Washington, DC
20423–0001) or by calling SEA, at (202)
245–0305. [Assistance for the hearing
impaired is available through the
Federal Information Relay Service
(FIRS) at 1–800–877–8339.] Comments
on environmental and historic
preservation matters must be filed
within 15 days after the EA becomes
available to the public.
Environmental, historic preservation,
public use, or trail use/rail banking
conditions will be imposed, where
appropriate, in a subsequent decision.
Pursuant to the provisions of 49 CFR
1152.29(e)(2), SSMB shall file a notice
of consummation with the Board to
signify that it has exercised the
authority granted and fully abandoned
the line. If consummation has not been
effected by SSMB’s filing of a notice of
consummation by July 22, 2009, and
there are no legal or regulatory barriers
to consummation, the authority to
abandon will automatically expire.
Board decisions and notices are
available on our Web site at ‘‘https://
www.stb.dot.gov.’’
2 The Board will grant a stay if an informed
decision on environmental issues (whether raised
by a party or by the Board’s Section of
Environmental Analysis (SEA) in its independent
investigation) cannot be made before the
exemption’s effective date. See Exemption of Outof-Service Rail Lines, 5 I.C.C.2d 377 (1989). Any
request for a stay should be filed as soon as possible
so that the Board may take appropriate action before
the exemption’s effective date.
3 Each OFA must be accompanied by the filing
fee, which is $1,500, effective July 18, 2008. See 49
CFR 1002.2(f)(25).
