Notice of final decision. AGENCY: mstockstill on PROD1PC66 with NOTICES SUMMARY: The Board corrected an error created in Simplified Standards For Rail Rate Cases, STB Ex Parte No. 646 (SubNo. 1) (STB served Sept. 5, 2007), by adjusting the revenue shortfall (or overage) to pre-tax dollars to conform with other elements of the Revenue Shortfall Allocation Method. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Timothy Strafford, (202) 245–0356. Assistance for the hearing impaired is available through the Federal Information Relay Service (FIRS) at 1– 800–877–8339. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: By a decision served on November 21, 2008, the Board found that there was a material error in the Revenue Shortfall Allocation Method (RSAM) formula described in Simplified Standards For Rail Rate Cases, STB Ex Parte No. 646 (Sub-No. 1) (STB served Sept. 5, 2007), in its failure to account for federal and state taxes. To correct this error, the Board revised the formula by adopting the use of the statutory federal tax rate, combined with a railroad-specific state tax rate, to best approximate the marginal taxes the carrier would pay on incremental revenue. Additional information is contained in the Board’s decision. A copy of the Board’s decision is available for inspection or copying at the Board’s Public Docket Room, Room 131, 395 E Street, SW., Washington, DC 20423– VerDate Aug<31>2005 17:30 Nov 25, 2008 Decided: November 20, 2008.
