SURFACE TRANSPORTATION BOARD [Docket No. EP 748] Indexing the Annual Operating Revenues of Railroads The Surface Transportation Board (the Board) is publishing the annual inflation-adjusted index and deflator factors for 2022. The deflator factors are used by the railroads to adjust their gross annual operating revenues for classification purposes. This indexing methodology ensures that railroads are classified based on real business expansion and not on the effects of inflation. Classification is important because it determines the extent to which individual railroads must comply with the Board’s reporting requirements. The Board’s deflator factors are based on the annual average Railroad Freight Price Index developed by the Bureau of Labor Statistics. The Board’s deflator factor is used to deflate revenues for comparison with established revenue thresholds.

The Class II threshold was also raised from $10 million (1978 dollars) to $20 million (1991 dollars). In Montana Rail Link, Inc.—Petition for Rulemaking—Classification of Carriers, EP 763 (STB served Apr. 5, 2021), the revenue classification level for Class I railroads was raised from $250 million (1991 dollars) to $900 million (2019 dollars), and the Class II threshold was converted and rounded from $20 million (1991 dollars) to $40.4 million (2019 dollars), effective for the reporting year beginning January 1, 2020. 2 The 2019 values reflect those in Indexing the Annual Operating Revenues of Railroads, EP 748 (STB served June 10, 2020). 3 The 2020 and subsequent values are based on the thresholds established in Docket No. EP 763, and the deflator factor is referenced to the new base year of 2019.
