Knox and Kane Railroad Company—
Abandonment Exemption—in Clarion,
Forest, Elk and McKean Counties, PA
Knox and Kane Railroad Company
(Knox and Kane), has filed a verified
notice of exemption under 49 CFR 1152
Subpart F—Exempt Abandonments to
abandon its entire line of railroad
between milepost 95.3 at North Clarion
Junction, PA, and milepost 165.2 at Mt.
Jewett, PA, a distance of 69.9 miles, in
Clarion, Forest, Elk and McKean
Counties, PA. The line includes no
stations and traverses United States
Postal Service Zip Codes 16254, 16235,
16233, 16260, 16239, 16347, 16735,
16734, and 16740.
Knox and Kane 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; (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 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.
The Board generally does not impose
labor protective conditions on a
railroad, such as Knox and Kane here,
that is abandoning its entire line. See,
Northampton and Bath R. Co.—
Abandonment, 354 I.C.C. 784 (1978).
Provided no formal expression of
intent to file an offer of financial
assistance (OFA) has been received, this
exemption will be effective on
November 24, 2009, unless stayed
pending reconsideration. Petitions to
stay that do not involve environmental
issues,1 formal expressions of intent to
file an OFA under 49 CFR
1152.27(c)(2),2 and trail use/rail banking
requests under 49 CFR 1152.29 must be
filed by November 2, 2009. Petitions to
reopen or requests for public use
conditions under 49 CFR 1152.28 must
be filed by November 12, 2009, 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 Knox and
Kane’s representative: Andrew P.
Goldstein, 2175 K Street, NW., Suite
600, Washington, DC 20037.
If the verified notice contains false or
misleading information, the exemption
is void ab initio.
Knox and Kane 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
October 30, 2009. Interested persons
may obtain a copy of the EA by writing
to SEA (Room 1100, Surface
1 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.
2 Each OFA must be accompanied by the filing
fee, which currently is set at $1,500. See 49 CFR
1002.2(f)(25).
