SURFACE TRANSPORTATION BOARD 

[Docket No. FD 36328] 

Ken Tenn Regional Rail Partners, 

Inc.—Construction & Operation 

Exemption—In Fulton County, Ky. and 

Obion County, Tenn. 

On September 2, 2020, Ken Tenn 

Regional Rail Partners, Inc. (KTRRP), a 

noncarrier, filed a petition for 

exemption under 49 U.S.C. 10502 from 

the prior approval requirements of 49 

U.S.C. 10901 for authorization to 

construct and operate approximately 

12.17 miles of rail line (Line) between 

milepost TennKen 51.69 at the 

Hickman-Fulton County River Port 

(Port) in Fulton County, Ky., and 

milepost UCT 450 near Union City, in 

Obion County, Tenn. 

KTRRP asks that the Board issue a 

preliminary decision addressing the 

transportation merits of the construction 

project while the environmental review 

is ongoing. As discussed below, the 

Board concludes that such an approach 

is appropriate here and preliminarily 

concludes, subject to completion of the 

ongoing environmental review, that the 

proposed construction meets the 

statutory standards for exemption under 

section 10502. This decision only 

addresses the transportation merits, 

however, and does not grant the 

exemption or allow construction to 

begin. After the Board has considered 

the potential environmental impacts 

associated with this proposal, it will 

issue a final decision either granting the 

exemption, with conditions if 

appropriate, or denying it. 

Background 

KTRRP states that it is a non-profit 

corporation created to construct and 

operate the Line by the Fulton County 

Industrial Development Authority of 

Kentucky, which provides assistance 

with economic development in Fulton 

County, and the Industrial Development 

Board of the City of Union City, which 

is an economic development agency and 

sub-entity of Union City. (Pet. 3.) 1

The petition states that the Port is a 

public entity that provides bulk and 

break-bulk cargo transfer operations for 

a variety of commodities and 

transloading transfer service, storage, 

and rail service. (Id. at 3–4.) Rail service 

at the Port is provided by the TennKen 

Railroad Company (TennKen), which 

connects with Canadian National 

Railway Company (CN) at Dyersburg, 

Tenn. (Id. at 4.) 

As noted above, the proposed Line 

would begin at the Port at milepost 

TennKen 51.69, near the Mississippi 

River, and extend to milepost UCT 450 

in Obion County. (Id. at 2.) According 

to KTRRP, two separate segments of the 

Line, totaling 3.47 miles, would be built 

over existing rights-of-way that are not 

currently in use: One would run from 

Union City to the north, on the west 

side of Tennessee Highway 21 to the 

Tennessee/Kentucky state line and then 

along the west side of Kentucky State 

Route 239 to Kentucky State Route 166; 

the other would parallel the east side of 

Kentucky Highway 125 just north of 

Kentucky Highway 166 for 

approximately 0.75 miles. The 

remainder of the Line would be newly 

constructed right-of-way running east to 

west until connecting to TennKen in 

Fulton County, Ky. (Id. at 6, Ex. B, Joint 

V.S. Billingsley & Curlin 3.) KTRRP 

notes that the proposed Line ultimately 

would join TennKen with the Union 

City Terminal Railroad to create a 46.1- 

mile loop connecting with CN at both 

Dyersburg and Rives, Tenn. (Pet., Ex. B, 

Joint V.S. Billingsley & Curlin 4.) 

KTRRP states that the proposed Line 

is located in an area that is a ‘‘lightly
