Surface Transportation Board
[Docket No. FD 35558]
Utah Southern Railroad Company,
LLC—Change in Operators
Exemption—Iron Bull Railroad
Company, LLC
Utah Southern Railroad Company,
LLC (USRC), a noncarrier, has filed a
verified notice of exemption under 49
CFR 1150.31 to change operators from
Iron Bull Railroad Company (IBRC) to
USRC on a rail line known as the
Comstock Subdivision (the line) that
extends between milepost 0.1 at or near
Iron Springs, Utah, and milepost 14.7 at
or near Iron Mountain, Utah, a distance
of 14.6 miles in Iron County, Utah. The
line is leased from Union Pacific
Railroad Company by PIC Railroad, LLC
(PIC) and is operated by USRC pursuant
to an operating agreement with PIC.
This change in operators is exempt
under 49 CFR 1150.31(a)(3).1
In 2006, IBRC filed a verified notice
of exemption under 49 CFR 1150.31 for
operation of the line pursuant to an
operating agreement with PIC.2 In a
letter dated September 30, 2008, USRC
notified the Board that, effective
October 1, 2008, the name of IBRC was
being changed to USRC. USRC now
states, however, that, as of the date of
that letter, USRC ‘‘had been
incorporated, and acquired IBRC’s
operating authority, and operated [the
line] as a corporation separate and
distinct from IBRC.’’ Counsel for USRC
1 To qualify for a change of operators exemption,
an applicant must give notice to shippers on the
line. See 49 CFR 1150.32(b). On October 26, 2011,
USRC filed certification that notice had been given
to the sole shipper on the line, CML Metals
Corporation.

recently became aware that USRC has a
corporate existence separate from IBRC
and that IBRC’s corporate existence has
been dissolved, and USRC therefore
now files this notice to obtain the
required exemption to change operators
of the line.
USRC certifies that as a result of this
transaction its projected revenues will
not exceed those that would qualify it
as a Class III rail carrier and that such
revenues would not exceed $5 million
annually. As discussed above, the
proposed transaction has been
consummated.
If the verified 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 exemption
will be effective November 20, 2011 (30
days after the notice of exemption was
filed). The filing of a petition to revoke
will not automatically stay the
effectiveness of the exemption. Petitions
for stay must be filed no later than
November 10, 2011.
An original and 10 copies of all
pleadings, referring to Docket No. FD
35558, must be filed with the Surface
Transportation Board, 395 E Street SW.,
Washington, DC 20423–0001. In
addition, a copy of each pleading must
be served on Thomas F. McFarland,

Treasury Book-Entry Securities Held
on the National Book-Entry System
Bureau of the Public Debt,
Fiscal Service, Treasury.
ACTION: Notice.
AGENCY:
The Department of the
Treasury (Treasury) is announcing a
new fee schedule applicable to transfers
of U.S. Treasury book-entry securities
maintained on the National Book-Entry
System (NBES) that occur on or after
January 3, 2012.

DATES:
Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 214 / Friday, November 4, 2011 / Notices
Effective Date: January 3, 2012.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
James Sharer or Kristina Yeh, Bureau of
the Public Debt, Department of the
Treasury at (202) 504–3550.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Treasury
has established a fee structure for the
transfer of Treasury book-entry
securities maintained on NBES.
Treasury reassesses this fee structure
periodically, based on our review of the
latest book-entry costs and volumes.
For each Treasury securities transfer
or reversal sent or received on or after
January 3, 2012, the basic fee will
increase from $0.38 to $0.48. The
Federal Reserve will also increase its fee
for Federal Reserve funds movement
from $0.07 to $0.09. This will result in
a combined fee of $0.57 for each transfer
of Treasury book-entry securities. The
surcharge for an off-line Treasury bookentry securities transfer will increase
from $33.00 to $40.00. Off-line refers to
the sending and receiving of transfer
messages to or from a Reserve Bank by
means other than on-line access such as
by written, facsimile, or telephone voice
instruction. The basic transfer fee
assessed to both sends and receives is
reflective of costs associated with the
processing of securities transfers. The
off-line surcharge reflects the additional
processing costs associated with the
manual processing of off-line securities
transfers.
Treasury does not charge a fee for
account maintenance, the stripping and
reconstitution of Treasury securities, the
wires associated with original issues, or
interest and redemption payments.
Treasury currently absorbs these costs.
The fees described in this notice
apply only to the transfer of Treasury
book-entry securities held on NBES.
Information concerning fees for bookentry transfers of Government Agency
securities, which are priced by the
Federal Reserve System, is set out in a
separate Federal Register notice
published by the Board of Governors of
the Federal Reserve System.
The following is the Treasury fee
schedule that will take effect on January
3, 2012, for book-entry transfers on
