[Docket No. AB 43 (Sub-No. 189X)] 

Illinois Central Railroad Company— 

Abandonment Exemption—in 

Champaign County, Ill 

Illinois Central Railroad Company 

(IC), a wholly owned subsidiary of 

Canadian National Railway Company, 

has filed a verified notice of exemption 

under 49 CFR pt. 1152 subpart F– 

Exempt Abandonments to abandon 

approximately 3.2 miles of railroad line 

(the Line). The Line extends between 

milepost 7.8 in Bondville and milepost 

11 in Seymour, in Champaign County, 

Ill., and traverses United States Postal 

Service Zip Codes 61815, 61822, and 

61875. 

IC has certified that: (1) No local 

traffic has moved over the Line for at 

least two years; (2) there is no overhead 

traffic on the Line that would have to 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 entity acting on behalf of 

such user) regarding cessation of service 

over the Line either is pending with the 

Surface Transportation Board (Board) or 

with any U.S. District Court or has been 

decided in favor of complainant within 

the two-year period; and (4) the 

requirements at 49 CFR 1105.7(c) 

(environmental report), 49 CFR 1105.11 

(transmittal letter), 49 CFR 1105.12 

(newspaper publication), and 49 CFR 

1152.50(d)(1) (notice to governmental 

agencies) have been met. 

As a condition to this exemption, any 

employee adversely affected by the 

abandonment shall be protected under 

Oregon Short Line Railroad— 

Abandonment Portion Goshen Branch 

Between Firth & Ammon, in Bingham & 

Bonneville Counties, Idaho, 360 I.C.C. 

91 (1979). 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, this 

exemption may become effective on 

May 12, 2015, unless stayed pending 

reconsideration. Petitions to stay that do 

not involve environmental issues,1

formal expressions of intent to file an 

OFA under 49 CFR 1152.27(c)(2),2 and 

interim trail use/rail banking requests 

under 49 CFR 1152.29 must be filed by 

April 20, 2015. Petitions to reopen or 

requests for public use conditions under 

49 CFR 1152.28 must be filed by April 

30, 2015, with the Surface 

Transportation Board, 395 E Street SW., 

Washington, DC 20423–0001. 

A copy of any petition filed with the 

Board should be sent to IC’s 

representative: Audrey L. Brodrick, 

Fletcher & Sippel LLC, 29 N. Wacker 

Dr., Suite 920, Chicago, IL 60606. 

If the verified notice contains false or 

misleading information, the exemption 

is void ab initio. 

IC has filed a combined 

environmental and historic report that 

addresses the effects, if any, of the 

abandonment on the environment and 

historic resources. OEA will issue an 

environmental assessment (EA) by April 

17, 2015. Interested persons may obtain 

a copy of the EA by writing to OEA 

(Room 1100, Surface Transportation 

Board, Washington, DC 20423–0001) or 

by calling OEA at (202) 245–0305. 

Assistance for the hearing impaired is 

available through the Federal 

Information Relay Service at (800) 877– 

8339. Comments on environmental and 

historic preservation matters must be 

filed within 15 days after the EA 

becomes available to the public. 

Environmental, historic preservation, 

public use, or interim trail use/rail 

banking conditions will be imposed, 

where appropriate, in a subsequent 

decision. 

Pursuant to the provisions of 49 CFR 

1152.29(e)(2), IC shall file a notice of 

consummation with the Board to signify 

that it has exercised the authority 

granted and fully abandoned the Line. If 

consummation has not been effected by 

IC’s filing of a notice of consummation 

by April 10, 2016, and there are no legal 

or regulatory barriers to consummation, 

the authority to abandon will 

automatically expire.
