[Docket No. FD 36750]
lotter on DSK11XQN23PROD with NOTICES1
Empire River Rail LLC—Operation
Exemption—in Brooke County, W. Va.
Empire River Rail LLC (ERRA), a noncarrier controlled by Empire Diversified
Energy, Inc. (Empire), has filed a
verified notice of exemption under 49
CFR 1150.31 to assume common carrier
operations over roughly 0.464 miles of
railroad trackage located along the Ohio
River in Brooke County, W. Va. (the
Line.) The Line connects to Norfolk
Southern Railway Company’s Wells
Industrial Track at approximately NSR
milepost 3.6 and extends northward.
The Line itself has no mileposts.
According to the verified notice, the
Line is part of a logistics facility that
boasts barge, warehousing, truck,
transloading, and railroad service
capabilities owned by Empire Trimodal
Terminal LLC d/b/a Port of West
Virginia (Port of West Virginia),1 located
in Follansbee, W. Va. The notice states
that the Line currently is not a Boardregulated line of railroad but that the
Port of West Virginia has chosen to
arrange for the commencement of
common carrier operations and has
negotiated an operating agreement with
ERRA that extends to ERRA the
exclusive right to conduct common
carrier service.
ERRA certifies that it’s projected
annual revenue is not expected to
exceed $5 million, and will not result in
the creation of a Class II or Class I rail
carrier. ERRA further certifies that it
will not be contractually limited in its
ability to interchange traffic with any
third-party connecting carrier.
The earliest this transaction may be
consummated is January 21, 2024, 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 January 12, 2024
(at least seven days before the
exemption becomes effective).
All pleadings, referring to Docket No.
FD 36750, 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 SW,
Washington, DC 20423–0001. In
addition, a copy of each pleading must
be served on ERRA’s representative,
Robert A. Wimbish, Fletcher & Sippel
LLC, 29 North Wacker Drive, Suite 800,
Chicago, IL 60606–3208.
According to ERRA, 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).
Board decisions and notices are
available at www.stb.gov.
Decided: January 2, 2024.
By the Board, Mai T. Dinh, Director, Office
of Proceedings.
Jeffrey Herzig,
Clearance Clerk.
