[Docket No. FD 36445]
Stillwater Central Railroad, L.L.C.—
Lease Exemption With Interchange
Commitment—BNSF Railway Company
Stillwater Central Railroad, L.L.C.
(SCR), a Class III rail carrier, has filed
a verified notice of exemption under 49
CFR 1150.41 to lease from the BNSF
Railway Company (BNSF) and operate
two rail line segments: (1) From
milepost 549.01 on Line Segment 1003
at Wheatland easterly to milepost
540.65 on Line Segment 7405,
immediately west of Shields Blvd.; and
(2) from milepost 540.0 on Line
Segment 1003 easterly to the end of
BNSF ownership at milepost 536.4 on
the same segment (including the North
Yard) in Oklahoma County, Okla. (the
Lines). The Lines total approximately
12.6 route miles.
According to the verified notice, SCR
has leased and operated the Lines since
2005.1 The verified notice states that
SCR and BNSF have executed a revised
lease agreement to govern SCR’s
leasehold of the Lines, which will
extend the term of the lease until July
31, 2030. SCR states that it will continue
to be the operator of the Lines.
According to SCR, the amended lease
between SCR and BNSF contains an
interchange commitment that affects
interchange with carriers other than
BNSF.2 The affected interchange is with
the Union Pacific Railroad Company at
Oklahoma City, Okla., on Segment 2. As
required under 49 CFR 1150.43(h), SCR
provided additional information
regarding the interchange commitment.
SCR has certified that its projected
annual revenues as a result of this
transaction will not result in SCR’s
becoming a Class II or Class I rail
carrier, but that its projected annual
revenues are anticipated to exceed $5
million. Pursuant to 49 CFR 1150.42(e),
if a carrier’s projected annual revenues
will exceed $5 million, it must, at least
60 days before this exemption is to
become effective, post a notice of its
intent to undertake the proposed
transaction at the workplace of the
employees on the affected lines, serve a
copy of the notice on the national
offices of the labor unions with
employees on the affected lines, and
certify to the Board that it has done so.
However, SCR, concurrently with its
verified notice of exemption, filed a
petition for waiver of the 60-day
advance labor notice requirement. SCR’s
waiver request will be addressed in a
separate decision. The Board will
establish the effective date of the
exemption in its separate decision on
the waiver request.
If the 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 filing of
a petition to revoke will not
automatically stay the effectiveness of
the exemption. Petitions for stay must
be filed no later than May 12, 2021.
All pleadings, referring to Docket No.
FD 36445, should be filed with the
Surface Transportation Board via efiling on the Board’s website. In
addition, one copy of each pleading
must be served on SCR’s representative:
Bradon J. Smith, Fletcher & Sippel LLC,
29 North Wacker Drive, Suite 800,
Chicago, IL 60606.
According to SCR, this action is
categorically excluded from
environmental review under 49 CFR
1105.6(c) and from historic preservation
reporting requirements under 49 CFR
1105.8(b).
