application must follow the rules set
forth at 49 CFR 1182.5 and 1182.8.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: CUSA EE
(along with a number of other Coach
America subsidiaries) is currently
involved in a proceeding instituted
under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy
Code, having filed on January 3, 2012,
a voluntary petition for relief with the
U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of
Delaware, and on January 13, 2012, a
motion to sell substantially all of its
assets and effectively to liquidate.
According to Applicant, the proposed
transaction would be completed
pursuant to 11 U.S.C. 105(a), 363 and
365 and Fed. R. Bankr. P. 2002, 6004,
6006, and 9014, and the bankruptcy
court’s order entered on May 25, 2012,
authorizing and approving (1) the sale of
substantially all of the assets of debtor
CUSA EE, LLC free and clear of liens,
SUMMARY:
1 El Expreso Group’s application identified
Tornado Bus Company, Inc. (Tornado), an affiliate,
as a second acquiring entity. However, by letter
dated June 21, 2012, Applicant’s representative
clarified that Applicant is the sole acquiring entity.

claims, and encumbrances, and (2) the
assumption and assignment of certain
executory contracts and unexpired
leases.
Applicant and Tornado, a motor
passenger carrier, are owned and
controlled by Jan Vazquez, an
individual. In addition to interstate
common carrier operating authority
(MC–276747), Tornado also holds
intrastate authority in Texas. Tornado’s
primary business is providing
scheduled passenger transportation
throughout the United States and
between the United States and Mexico.
As indicated, Michael Yusim has filed
a letter in opposition to the application
by El Expreso Group to acquire control
of the assets of CUSA EE. The basis for
his opposition relates to two cases
alleging that his employer, an entity
named Midnight Sun Tours, Inc.
(Midnight Sun), a wholly owned
subsidiary of the Coach America bus
companies in bankruptcy, discriminated
against drivers for having accurately
reported their hours of service.
According to Mr. Yusim, the two cases
are pending before the Secretary of
Labor (Secretary), but have been stayed
by the bankruptcy court. Mr. Yusim
requests that the Board disallow the sale
of any subsidiaries of Coach America
until the Secretary is allowed to hear
and decide the two cases.
Because we have received a timely
comment in opposition to the
application, we will not grant tentative
authority under 49 CFR 1182.4(b). See
49 CFR 1182.6(a). Instead, we will
institute a proceeding to address this
matter, as well as to determine the
merits of the application pursuant to 49
U.S.C. 14303. Comments and responses
are to be submitted as ordered below.
See 49 CFR 1182.5 and 1182.6.
Board decisions and notices are
available on our Web site at
‘‘www.stb.dot.gov’’.
This decision will not significantly
affect either the quality of the human
environment or the conservation of
energy resources.
It is ordered:
1. Comments must be filed by August
27, 2012. Applicant may file a reply to
any comments by September 11, 2012.
2. This notice will be effective on its
date of service.
3. A copy of this notice will be served

Departmental Offices; Debt
Management Advisory Committee
Meeting
Notice is hereby given, pursuant to 5
U.S.C. App. 2, § 10(a)(2), that a meeting
will be held at the Hay-Adams Hotel,
16th Street and Pennsylvania Avenue
NW., Washington, DC, on July 31, 2012
at 9:30 a.m. of the following debt
management advisory committee:
Treasury Borrowing Advisory
Committee of The Securities Industry
and Financial Markets Association.
The agenda for the meeting provides
for a charge by the Secretary of the
Treasury or his designate that the
Committee discuss particular issues and
conduct a working session. Following
the working session, the Committee will
present a written report of its
recommendations. The meeting will be
closed to the public, pursuant to 5
U.S.C. App. 2, § 10(d) and Public Law
103–202, § 202(c)(1)(B) (31 U.S.C. 3121
note).
This notice shall constitute my
determination, pursuant to the authority
placed in heads of agencies by 5 U.S.C.
App. 2, § 10(d) and vested in me by
Treasury Department Order No. 101–05,
that the meeting will consist of
discussions and debates of the issues
presented to the Committee by the
Secretary of the Treasury and the
making of recommendations of the
Committee to the Secretary, pursuant to
Public Law 103–202, § 202(c)(1)(B).
Thus, this information is exempt from
disclosure under that provision and 5
U.S.C. 552b(c)(3)(B). In addition, the
meeting is concerned with information
that is exempt from disclosure under 5
U.S.C. 552b(c)(9)(A). The public interest
requires that such meetings be closed to
the public because the Treasury
Department requires frank and full
VerDate Mar<15>2010

Jkt 226001
advice from representatives of the
financial community prior to making its
final decisions on major financing
operations. Historically, this advice has
been offered by debt management
advisory committees established by the
several major segments of the financial
community. When so utilized, such a
committee is recognized to be an
advisory committee under 5 U.S.C. App.
2, § 3.
Although the Treasury’s final
announcement of financing plans may
not reflect the recommendations
provided in reports of the Committee,
premature disclosure of the Committee’s
deliberations and reports would be
likely to lead to significant financial
speculation in the securities market.
Thus, this meeting falls within the
exemption covered by 5 U.S.C.
552b(c)(9)(A).
Treasury staff will provide a technical
briefing to the press on the day before
the Committee meeting, following the
release of a statement of economic
conditions and financing estimates. This
briefing will give the press an
opportunity to ask questions about
financing projections. The day after the
Committee meeting, Treasury will
release the minutes of the meeting, any
charts that were discussed at the
meeting, and the Committee’s report to
the Secretary.
The Office of Debt Management is
responsible for maintaining records of
debt management advisory committee
meetings and for providing annual
reports setting forth a summary of
Committee activities and such other
matters as may be informative to the
public consistent with the policy of 5
U.S.C. 552(b). The Designated Federal
Officer or other responsible agency
official who may be contacted for
additional information is Fred
Pietrangeli, Deputy Director for Office of
Debt Management (202) 622–1876.
