County, VA
Norfolk Southern Railway Company
(NSR) has filed a verified notice of
exemption under 49 CFR part 1152
subpart F—Exempt Abandonments to
abandon a 1.81-mile line of railroad
between milepost CV 277.30 (Big Stone
Gap) and milepost CV 279.11
(Appalachia), in Wise County, VA.1 The
line traverses United States Postal
Service Zip Codes 24216 and 24219.
NSR has certified that: (1) No local
traffic has moved over the line for at
least 2 years; (2) overhead traffic on the
line, if any, could 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 either
is pending with the Surface
Transportation Board (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
1 According to NSR, the proposed line for
abandonment has been out of service since the late
1980s, when the owner, CSX Transportation, Inc.,
rerouted its traffic to NSR’s line between Big Stone
Gap and Frisco, TN.

formal expressions of intent to file an
OFA under 49 CFR 1152.27(c)(2),3 and

Board should be sent to NSR’s
representative: James R. Paschall, Senior
General Attorney, Norfolk Southern
Corporation, Three Commercial Place,
Norfolk, VA 23510.
If the verified notice contains false or
misleading information, the exemption
is void ab initio.
NSR has filed environmental and
historic reports that address the effects,
if any, of the abandonment on the
environment and historic resources.
SEA will issue an environmental
assessment (EA) by March 16, 2009.
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), NSR shall file a notice of
consummation with the Board to signify
that it has exercised the authority
granted and fully abandoned the line. If
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 currently is set at $1,500. See 49 CFR
1002.2(f)(25).
4 NSR states that it is not aware of any restriction
on the title to the right-of-way that would affect the
transfer of title or the use of property for other than
rail purposes but will provide full title information
promptly if it receives a proposal to acquire the
property for public purposes.
