1 The Board will grant a stay if an informed

decision on environmental issues (whether raised

by a party or by the Board’s Section of

Environmental Analysis in its independent

investigation) cannot be made before the

exemption’s effective date. See Exemption of Outof-Service Rail Lines, 5 I.C.C.2d 377 (1989). Any

request for a stay should be filed as soon as possible

so that the Board may take appropriate action before

the exemption’s effective date.

2 See Exempt. of Rail Abandonment—Offers of

Finan. Assist., 4 I.C.C.2d 164 (1987).

3 The Board will accept late-filed trail use

requests as long as the abandonment has not been

consummated and the abandoning railroad is

willing to negotiate an agreement.

Additionally, Jaguar stated that the

vehicle does not meet the vehicle

identification number requirements of

49 CFR part 565, or the Bumper

Standard, found at 49 CFR part 581.

Champagne submitted to NHTSA an

additional letter, from the Jaguar

Daimler Heritage Trust of Coventry,

England, stating that the vehicle it seeks

to import was hand built, and of a type

produced by Jaguar Cars Ltd. until 1992.

This letter also stated that although

there were ‘‘small external cosmetic

changes’’ from vehicle to vehicle, ‘‘the

external shape, style, engine, gearbox,

and chassis of the car all remained the

same throughout its production build.’’

Moreover, the letter provided

confirmation that a Daimler Limousine

built in 1986 ‘‘would be no different

than a similar car which was built in

1985 apart from any optional extras

which may have been ordered * * *.’’

Based on the information from the

Jaguar Daimler Heritage Trust indicating

that Daimler Limousines are in all

essential respects identical from model

year to model year, and NHTSA’s prior

determination that a 1985 Daimler

Limousine is eligible for importation,

NHTSA has tentatively decided that the

1986 Daimler Limousine that is the

subject of Champagne’s petition is

eligible for importation.

Tentative Decisions

NHTSA hereby tentatively decides

that a 1986 Daimler Limousine that was

not originally manufactured to comply

with all applicable Federal motor

vehicle safety standards is eligible for

importation into the United States

because it has safety features that

comply with, or are capable of being

altered to comply with, those standards.

Vehicle Eligibility Number

The importer of a vehicle admissible

under any final decision must indicate

on the form HS–7 accompanying entry

the appropriate vehicle eligibility

number indicating that the vehicle is

eligible for entry. If this tentative

decision is made final, all vehicles

admissible under that decision will be

assigned vehicle eligibility no. VCA–1.

Comments

Section 30141(b) of Title 49, U.S.

Code requires NHTSA to provide a

minimum period for public notice and

comment on decisions made on its own

initiative consistent with ensuring

expeditious, but full consideration and

avoiding delay by any person. NHTSA

believes that a minimum comment

period of 30 days is appropriate for this

purpose. Interested persons are invited

to submit comments on the tentative

decision described above. It is

requested, but not required, that five

copies be submitted.

All comments received before the

close of business on the closing date

indicated above will be considered, and

will be available for examination in the

docket at the above address both before

and after that date. To the extent

possible, comments filed after the

closing date will also be considered.

Notice of NHTSA’s final decision will

be published in the Federal Register

pursuant to the authority indicated

below.

Authority: 49 U.S.C. 30141(a)(1)(B) and

(b)(1); 49 CFR 593.8; delegation of authority

at 49 CFR 1.50.

the track at milepost F–0.9 in Forest

City, Seminole County, FL.

FCEN has certified that: (1) no local

traffic has moved over the line for at

least 2 years; (2) there is no overhead

traffic on the line; (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 2-year period; and (4) the

(transmittal letter), 49 CFR 1105.12

(newspaper publication), and 49 CFR

1152.50(d)(1) (notice to governmental

As a condition to this exemption, any

employee adversely affected by the

abandonment shall be protected under

Oregon Short Line R. Co.—

Abandonment—Goshen, 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 will be effective on February

12, 1997, 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

trail use/rail banking requests under 49

CFR 1152.29 3 must be filed by January

23, 1997. Petitions to reopen or requests

for public use conditions under 49 CFR

1152.28 must be filed by February 3,

1997, with: Office of the Secretary, Case

Control Branch, Surface Transportation

Board, 1201 Constitution Avenue, N.W.,

Washington, DC 20423.

Board should be sent to applicant’s

representative: Thomas J. Litwiler,

Oppenheimer Wolff & Donnelly, Two

Prudential Plaza, 45th Floor, 180 North

Stetson Avenue, Chicago, IL 60601.

If the verified notice contains false or

misleading information, the exemption

is void ab initio.

FCEN has filed an environmental

report which addresses the

abandonment’s effects, if any, on the

environment and historic resources. The

Section of Environmental Analysis

(SEA) will issue an environmental

assessment (EA) by January 17, 1997.

Interested persons may obtain a copy of

the EA by writing to SEA (Room 3219,

Surface Transportation Board,

Washington, DC 20423) or by calling

Elaine Kaiser, Chief of SEA, at (202)

927–6248. 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 trail use/rail banking

conditions will be imposed, where

appropriate, in a subsequent decision.
