(the Line). On October 26, 2012, notice of the exemption was served and published in the Federal Register (77 Fed. Reg. 65,446). The exemption became effective on November 10, 2012. On November 21, 2012, DJR filed a letter with the Board clarifying that the published notice incorrectly states that DJR currently leases from IC, and operates, 17 miles of rail line between milepost 745.54 near Elwin and milepost 728.0 near Assumption, Ill. This notice corrects that statement. According to DJR, it leases the 17-mile rail line from Central Illinois Shippers, Inc.1 All other information in the notice is correct. In its letter, DJR advises that the transaction involving the acquisition of the 4.4-mile line was consummated on November 20, 2012.
