61818 Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 193 / Wednesday, October 6, 2010 / Notices 

1 JAIL’s lease and operation agreement was filed 

under seal pursuant to 49 CFR 1150.43(h)(1)(ii). 

2 JAIL states that, despite the apparent overlap, 

the boundary of the assigned trackage rights is 

distinct from the boundary of the Lansing 

Secondary. The apparent overlap is the result of an 

historical rounding error in NSR’s engineering 

maps. 

49 U.S.C. 10902. However, the Board 

reserves to itself the consideration and 

disposition of all matters involving 

issues of general transportation 

importance. 49 CFR 1011.2(a)(6). 

Accordingly, the Board revokes the 

delegation to the Director with respect 

to the issuance of this notice of 

exemption. The Board determines that 

this notice of lease and operation 

exemption should be issued, and does 

so here. 

Jackson & Lansing Railroad Company 

(JAIL), a noncarrier, has filed a verified 

notice of exemption under 49 CFR 

1150.31, et seq., to lease and operate 

certain rail lines from Norfolk Southern 

Railway Company (NSR). Pursuant to 

the lease agreement, JAIL will lease the 

following rail lines from NSR: (1) The 

Lansing Secondary, located between the 

connection with NSR’s Michigan Main 

Line at milepost LZ 0.0 in Jackson, 

Mich., and milepost LZ 36.9 in Lansing, 

Mich. (36.9 miles in length); (2) the 

Lansing Manufacturers Railroad, located 

between milepost XF 0.0 and milepost 

XF 5.1 in Lansing (5.1 miles in length); 

(3) the Lansing Industrial Track line 

segment located between milepost XM 

57.1 and milepost XM 58.9 in Lansing 

(1.8 miles in length); and (4) the Lansing 

Industrial Track line segment between 

milepost UA 60.7 and milepost UA 61.4 

in Lansing (approximately 0.7 miles in 

length).1 The total length of the lines to 

be leased is 44.5 miles. In conjunction 

with the lease of these lines, NSR will 

also grant to JAIL limited incidental 

trackage rights over 2.6 miles of NSR’s 

Michigan Main Line, between milepost 

NS 72.73 and milepost NS 75.67 (equal 

to milepost LZ 0.0) in Jackson, for the 

sole purpose of interchanging with NSR 

at NSR’s Jackson Yard. The lease 

agreement will expire on December 31, 

2030. 

As required at 49 CFR 1150.33(h), 

JAIL has disclosed that the lease 

agreement contains a provision that 

would provide for a ‘‘Lease Credit’’ 

whereby JAIL may reduce its lease 

payments by receiving a credit for each 

car interchanged with NSR. JAIL notes 

that NSR initially proposed a fixed 

rental payment with no option to reduce 

the rent, but JAIL insisted on a lease 

credit option to provide an opportunity 

for JAIL to earn a lower rental payment 

so it would be able to invest in 

improvements on the lease lines to 

increase traffic levels. According to 

JAIL, the affected interchange point is 

Jackson. 

This transaction is related to 2 other 

transactions for which notices of 

exemption have been simultaneously 

filed: Docket No. FD 35410, Adrian & 

Blissfield Rail Road Company— 

Continuance in Control Exemption— 

Jackson & Lansing Railroad Company, 

in which Adrian & Blissfield Rail Road 

Company seeks to continue in control of 

JAIL, upon JAIL’s becoming a Class III 

rail carrier; and Docket No. FD 35418, 

Jackson & Lansing Railroad Company— 

Trackage Rights Exemption—Norfolk 

Southern Railway Company, in which 

JAIL seeks to acquire, pursuant to an 

agreement with NSR, non-exclusive 

local and overhead trackage rights over 

approximately 1.06 miles of line owned 

by NSR and currently leased to CSX 

Transportation, Inc., on the Lansing 

Secondary, between milepost LZ 36.8 2

in Lansing and milepost 37.86 in North 

Lansing, Mich., for the sole purpose of 

interchanging with NSR. 

JAIL certifies that the projected 

annual revenues as a result of the 

proposed transaction will not exceed $5 

million, and that JAIL will be a Class III 

carrier. 

The transaction may not be 

consummated until October 20, 2010, 

the effective date of the exemption (30 

days after the exemption 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 not later than October 13, 2010 

(at least 7 days before the exemption 

becomes effective). 

An original and 10 copies of all 

pleadings, referring to Docket No. FD 

35411, must be filed with the Surface 

Transportation Board, 395 E Street, SW., 

Washington, DC 20423–0001. In 

addition, a copy of each pleading must 

be served on John D. Heffner, PLLC, and 

James H. M. Savage, Of Counsel, 1750 

K Street, NW., Washington, DC 20006. 

Board decisions and notices are 

available at our Web site at http:// 

www.stb.dot.gov. 

It is ordered: 

1. The delegation of authority to the 

Director of the Office of Proceedings, 

under 49 CFR 1011.7(b)(10), to 

determine whether to issue a notice of 

exemption in this proceeding is 

revoked. 

2. This decision is effective on the 

date of service. 

Decided: October 1, 2010. 

Jeffrey Herzig, 

Clearance Clerk. 

By the Board, Chairman Elliott, Vice 

Chairman Mulvey, and Commissioner 

Nottingham. Vice Chairman Mulvey 

dissented with a separate expression. 

Vice Chairman Mulvey, dissenting: 

I disagree with the Board’s decision to 

allow this transaction to be processed 

under the Board’s class exemption 

procedures. In this case, I would like to 

have more information about the likely 

impact of the proposed interchange 

commitment prior to permitting the 

exemption to become effective. I believe 

that it is incumbent for the Board to take 

a close look at interchange 

commitments, particularly when they 

contain outright bans on interchange 

with third-party carriers or, as here, 

economic incentives that can only be 

evaluated with the provision of 

additional information.
