Va. Norfolk Southern Railway Company (NSR) has filed a verified notice of exemption under 49 CFR part 1152, subpart F—Exempt Abandonments to abandon an approximately 3.5-mile rail line (the Alma Branch) extending from milepost AL 0.0 +/- at or near Sprigg, W. Va., to milepost AL 3.5 +/- at or near Vimy, W. Va., in the vicinity of Matewan, Mingo County, W. Va. (the Line).1 The Line traverses U.S. Postal Service Zip Codes 25661 and 25678. NSR has certified that: (1) no local freight traffic has moved over the Line during the past two years; (2) any overhead traffic on the Line can be rerouted over other lines; (3) no formal complaint filed by a user of rail service on the Line (or by a state or local government on behalf of such user) regarding cessation of service over the Line is pending with either the Surface Transportation Board (Board) or any U.S. District Court or has been decided in favor of a complainant within the two-year period; and (4) the requirements at 49 CFR 1105.7(b) and 1105.8(c) (notice of environmental and historic reports), 49 CFR 1105.12 (newspaper publication), and 49 CFR 1152.50(d)(1) (notice to government agencies) have been met.

To address whether this condition adequately protects affected employees, a petition for partial revocation under 49 U.S.C. 10502(d) must be filed. Provided no formal expression of intent to file an offer of financial assistance (OFA) has been received,2 this exemption will be effective on December 20, 2024, unless stayed pending reconsideration. Petitions to stay that do not involve environmental issues must be filed by November 29, 1 On November 13, 2024, NSR filed an errata to its verified notice of exemption to correct a discrepancy regarding the mileposts of the Line. 2 Persons interested in submitting an OFA must first file a formal expression of intent to file an offer, indicating the type of financial assistance they wish to provide (i.e., subsidy or purchase) and demonstrating that they are preliminarily financially responsible.
