SURFACE TRANSPORTATION BOARD
[Docket No. FD 36245]
Paul Didelius—Continuance in Control
Exemption—KET, LLC
Paul Didelius (Didelius), an
individual and noncarrier,1 has filed a
verified notice of exemption pursuant to
49 CFR 1180.2(d)(2) to continue in
control of KET, LLC (KET), upon KET’s
becoming a Class III rail carrier.
This transaction is related to a
concurrently filed verified notice of
exemption in KET, LLC—Operation
Exemption—Lines of Railroad in Benton
County, Wash., Docket No. FD 36244, in
which KET seeks Board approval under
49 CFR 1150.31 to operate two
industrial spurs totaling approximately
1.28 miles in length in Kennewick and
Hedges, Benton County, Wash.
The transaction may be consummated
on or after December 5, 2018, the
effective date of the exemption (30 days
after the verified notice of exemption
was filed).
Didelius represents that: (1) The rail
properties that will be operated and
controlled by Didelius, namely LRY,
YCR, CCET, WRL, CWW, and KET, do
not physically connect; (2) there are no
plans to acquire additional rail lines for
the purpose of making a connection;
and (3) each of the carriers involved in
the continuance in control transaction is
a Class III carrier. Therefore, the
transaction is exempt from the prior
approval requirements of 49 U.S.C.
11323. See 49 CFR 1180.2(d)(2).
Under 49 U.S.C. 10502(g), the Board
may not use its exemption authority to
relieve a rail carrier of its statutory
obligation to protect the interests of its
employees. Section 11326(c), however,
does not provide for labor protection for
transactions under §§ 11324 and 11325
that involve only Class III rail carriers.
Accordingly, the Board may not impose
labor protective conditions here,
because all of the carriers involved are
Class III carriers.
If the verified notice contains false or
misleading information, the exemption
1 Didelius currently owns 100% of LRY, LLC
d/b/a Lake Railway (LRY), a Class III carrier that
leases and operates rail lines owned by Union
Pacific Railroad Company and Lake County, Or., in
California and Oregon; 49% of YCR Corporation
(YCR), a Class III rail carrier established for the
purpose of leasing and operating a line of railroad
owned by Yakima County, Wash.; 100% of CCET,
LLC (CCET), a Class III short line rail carrier
organized for the purpose of leasing and operating
a rail line owned by Norfolk Southern Railway
Company in Ohio; 100% of WRL, LLC (WRL), a
Class III carrier that leases and operates a rail line
owned by Port of Royal Slope, a Washington state
municipal corporation, in Washington; and 100% of
CWW, LLC (CWW), a Class III carrier that leases
and operates a line of railroad owned by the Port
of Columbia, Wash.
