Federal Register / Vol. 73, No. 229 / Wednesday, November 26, 2008 / Notices
would be insufficient throughout its
use. DJG noted that though these
restraints are now more than seven
years old, and generally past their useful
life, there have been no complaints
regarding harness degradation in these
restraints or any known failures of the
harness webbing in crashes.
In conclusion, DJG states that real
world experience of child restraints at
issue in this proceeding has proven that
the non-compliant webbing has
performed satisfactorily for more than
seven years in the field. In addition, DJG
contends that recent testing of the
breaking strength of the tether webbing
in used child restraints confirms that
the webbing is not degrading in use
from abrasion, exposure to light or any
other reason, and is retaining a very
high percentage of its original strength.
Therefore, DJG believes that NHTSA
should grant DJG’s appeal of the
decision to deny its petitions for a
determination that the noncompliance
of its tether and harness webbing is
inconsequential to safety.

[STB Finance Docket No. 35199]
Potlatch Land & Lumber, LLC—
Change of Control Within Corporate
Family Exemption
Potlatch Land & Lumber, LLC (PL&L),
has filed a verified notice of exemption
under 49 CFR 1180.2(d)(3) to undertake
VerDate Aug<31>2005
17:30 Nov 25, 2008
Jkt 217001
a change of control within its corporate
family. PL&L, a newly organized
subsidiary of Potlatch Corporation of
Spokane, WA (Potlatch), seeks to
acquire the stock of 3 short line
railroads: St. Maries River Railroad
Company (STMA), Warren & Saline
River Railroad Company (WSR), and
The Prescott and Northwestern Railroad
Company (PNW). The stock of the
railroads is currently held by Potlatch
Forest Products Corporation, another
subsidiary of Potlatch, which is being
spun off and will be renamed
Clearwater Paper Corporation.
The transaction is expected to be
consummated on December 13, 2008 (30
days after the exemption was filed).
PL&L states that the transaction is
designed to permit Potlatch, through
PL&L, to retain indirect control of
STMA, WSR, and PNW. PL&L adds that
the transaction will not result in adverse
changes in service levels, significant
operational changes, or a change in the
competitive balance with carriers
outside the corporate family. Therefore,
the transaction is exempt from the prior
approval requirements of 49 U.S.C.
11323. See 49 CFR 1180.2(d)(3).
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 the carriers involved are
Class III rail carriers.
If the 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 transaction.
Petitions for stay will be due no later
than December 5, 2008 (at least 7 days
before the effective date of the
exemption).
An original and 10 copies of all
pleadings, referring to STB Finance
Docket No. 35199, must be filed with
the Surface Transportation Board, 395 E
Street, SW., Washington, DC 20423–
0001. In addition, one copy of each
pleading must be served on Fritz R.
Kahn, 1920 N Street, NW., 8th Floor,

Notice of Correction.
AGENCY:
ACTION:
SUMMARY: This document contains a
correction to a decision served and
published in the Federal Register on
July 18, 2008 (73 FR 41401–02). That
decision tentatively approved the
acquisition of control through purchase
of Transportation Management Systems,
LLC, f/k/a TMS, Inc. (TMS) and East
West Resort Transportation, LLC
(EWRT) by Delivery Acquisition, Inc.
(Delivery), unless opposing comments
were filed by September 2, 2008. No
comments were subsequently filed with
the Board and the Board’s decision
approving the proposed acquisition of
control thus became effective on
September 2, 2008. After the period for
filing comments ended, the Board
received notification from the
applicants in this proceeding that
references they had made in the
application approved by the Board to
operating rights issued by the former
Interstate Commerce Commission (ICC)
in Docket No. MC–169714 were
incorrect, and that the correct number is
MC–169174. Accordingly, the July 18
decision is being corrected to reflect the
actual docket number of MC–169174,
rather than MC–169714.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Julia
Farr (202) 245–0359 [Federal
Information Relay (FIRS) for the hearing
impaired: 1–800–877–8339].
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On
September 2, 2008, the Board’s approval
of Delivery’s acquisition of TMS and
EWRT became effective. On November
13, 2008, the Board received notification
from the applicants that their
application misstated that certain of the
operating rights held or leased by TMS,
and EWRT had been issued by the
former ICC in Docket No. MC–169714.
The correct docket number is MC–
169174.

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.

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
