all four I2U2 partner countries.

www.state.gov/I2U2. Following these

select the applicable sectors and explain
the proposed role of/benefits to each
partner country. The form also requests
details about the project submitter, any

Line extending from milepost 0.09 at

BNGR states that it currently operates

with ODOT and BIA.1 According to
BNGR, it, ODOT, and BIA have
executed a new Track Lease and
Operating Agreement, which will
govern BNGR operation of the Line

BNGR certifies that its projected

BNGR also certifies that the agreement
does not include an interchange
commitment.
The transaction may be consummated
on or after November 1, 2023,2 the
effective date of the exemption (30 days
after the verified notice was filed).
If the verified 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 October 25, 2023
(at least seven days before the
exemption becomes effective).
All pleadings, referring to Docket No.
FD 35441 (Sub-No. 1), must be filed
with the Surface Transportation Board
either via e-filing on the Board’s website
or in writing addressed to 395 E Street,

reporting requirements under 49 CFR
1105.8(b).

on October 2, 2023. The date of BNGR’s supplement
will be considered the filing date for purposes of
calculating the effective date of this exemption.
