1CSS states that the CIT is a line of railroad, and 

not ancillary (industrial) trackage. However, 

according to CSS, the subject CIT lease transaction 

also involves ancillary track not subject to the 

Board’s entry licensing requirements, pursuant to 

49 U.S.C. 10906. 

2CSS filed a confidential version of the lease and 

related switching agreement with its notice of 

exemption to be kept confidential by the Board 

under 49 CFR 1104.14(a) without the need for the 

filing of an accompanying motion for protective 

order under 49 CFR 1104.14(b). See 49 CFR 

1150.43(h). 

3Pursuant to 49 CFR 1150.42(e), the exemption 

may not become effective until 60 days from CSS’s 

November 22, 2017 certification.

[Docket No. FD 36156] 

Chicago South Shore & South Bend 

Railroad Company—Lease Exemption 

Containing Interchange Commitment— 

Wisconsin Central Ltd. 

Chicago South Shore & South Bend 

Railroad Company (CSS), a Class III rail 

carrier, has filed a verified notice of 

exemption under 49 CFR 1150.41 to 

lease from Wisconsin Central Ltd. 

(WCL) and operate approximately 5.64 

miles of the City Industrial Track (CIT) 

in Gary, Ind., between milepost 1.21 and 

milepost 6.85.1

According to CSS, the lease and 

related switching agreement between 

CSS and WCL were entered into on 

November 14, 2017.2 As required by 49 

CFR 1150.43(h)(1), CSS has disclosed in 

its verified notice that the lease 

agreement contains an interchange 

commitment, which affects CSS’s ability 

to interchange traffic with carriers other 

than WCL. CSS has provided additional 

information regarding the interchange 

commitment as required by 49 CFR 

1150.43(h). CSS states that it will 

operate the track it is leasing. 

CSS certifies that its projected annual 

revenues as a result of the transaction 

will not result in CSS’s becoming a 

Class II or Class I rail carrier. However, 

because its projected annual revenues 

exceed $5 million, CSS states that it 

provided notice on November 22, 2017, 

pursuant to the labor notice 

requirements of 49 CFR 1150.42(e). 

CSS states that it intends to 

consummate the lease agreement on or 

after January 21, 2018, the effective date 

of the exemption.3

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 no later than January 12, 2018 

(at least seven days before the 

exemption becomes effective). 

An original and ten copies of all 

pleadings, referring to Docket No. FD 

36156, 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 Rose-Michele Nardi, 

Transport Counsel PC, 1900 M Street 

NW, Suite 400, Washington, DC 20036.

SURFACE TRANSPORTATION BOARD 

[Docket No. FD 36160] 

Great Lakes Terminal Railroad, LLC— 

Lease and Operation Exemption—Rail 

Line of Great Lakes Reloading, LLC 

Great Lakes Terminal Railroad, LLC 

(GLTRR), a noncarrier,1 has filed a 

verified notice of exemption under 49 

CFR 1150.31 to sublease from Great 

Lakes Reloading, LLC (GLR), and to 

operate,2 approximately 12,500 feet 

(2.37 miles) of railroad right-of-way and 

trackage and transloading facilities 

located at 13535 S. Torrence Avenue, in 

Chicago, Ill. (the Chicago Transload 

Facility Trackage). 

According to GLTRR, there are no 

mileposts associated with the Chicago 

Transload Facility Trackage. GLTRR 

states that Centerpoint Chicago 

Enterprise, LLC, owns the Chicago 

Transload Facility Trackage, and leases 

it to GLR. GLTRR further states that the 

trackage is used to transload steel rebar, 

steel pipe, and agriculture and 

construction equipment from truck to 

rail. According to GLTRR, the trackage 

is used in conjunction with 

interchanging with the Indiana Harbor 

Belt Railroad Company. 

GLTRR asserts that, because the 

trackage in question will constitute the 

entire line of railroad of GLTRR, this 

trackage is a line of railroad under 49 

U.S.C. 10901, rather than spur, 

switching, or side tracks excepted from 

Board acquisition and operation 

authority under 49 U.S.C. 10906.3

Although GLTRR states in its verified 

notice that the operations were 

proposed to be consummated on or 

about December 1, 2017, this transaction 

may not be consummated until January 

19, 2018 (30 days after the verified 

notice was filed).4

GLTRR certifies that its projected 

annual revenues as a result of this 

transaction do not exceed those that 

would qualify it as a Class III rail carrier 

and will not exceed $5 million. GLTRR 

also certifies that there are no provisions 

or agreements that may limit future 

interchange with a third-party 

connecting carrier. 

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 to stay must be 

filed no later than January 12, 2018 (at 

least seven days before the exemption 

becomes effective). 

An original and 10 copies of all 

pleadings, referring to Docket No. FD 

36160, 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 GLTRR’s representative, 

David C. Dillon, Dillon & Nash, Ltd., 

3100 Dundee Road, Suite 508, 

Northbrook, IL 60062. 

According to GLTRR, this action is 

categorically excluded from 

environmental review under 49 CFR 

1105.6(c) and from historic reporting 

under 49 CFR 1105.8(b).

Federal Motor Carrier Safety 

Administration 

[Docket No. FMCSA–2016–0325] 

Motor Carrier Safety Assistance 

Program Multi-Year Plans 

AGENCY: Federal Motor Carrier Safety 

Administration (FMCSA), DOT. 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: The Fixing America’s Surface 

Transportation Act (FAST Act), requires 

the Secretary to prescribe procedures for 

a State to submit multiple-year 

commercial vehicle safety plans 

(‘‘multi-year plans’’) and annual updates 

for the Motor Carrier Safety Assistance 

Program (MCSAP) grants. In a prior 

notice, FMCSA requested information 

and posed specific questions to improve 

the Agency’s development and 

implementation of multi-year plans. 

This notice announces FMCSA’s 

voluntary implementation of multi-year 

plans.

Thomas Liberatore, Chief, State 

Programs Division, Federal Motor 

Carrier Safety Administration, 1200 

New Jersey Avenue SE, Washington, DC 

20590, Telephone (202) 366–3030 or by 

email at Thomas.Liberatore@dot.gov. 

Office hours are from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 

p.m., E.T., Monday through Friday,

submitting material to the docket,

366–9826. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

The goal of the MCSAP is to ensure 

that there is a partnership between the 

U.S. Department of Transportation and 

the States to establish programs to 

improve motor carrier, commercial 

motor vehicle (CMV), and driver safety 

to support a safe and efficient surface 

transportation system. MCSAP makes 

targeted investments to promote CMV 

safety, including the transportation of 

passengers and hazardous materials. 

FMCSA encourages the States and 

Territories to invest in activities likely 

to maximize reductions in the number 

and severity of CMV crashes and 

fatalities resulting from such crashes. 

This is accomplished by adopting and 

enforcing effective motor carrier, CMV, 

and driver safety regulations and 

practices consistent with Federal 

requirements, assessing and improving 

statewide performance by setting 

program goals, and meeting 

performance standards, measures, and 

benchmarks. 

FMCSA amended its regulations to 

conform to 49 U.S.C. 31102(c)(1), as 

amended by the FAST Act, Public Law 

114–94 (2015), section 5101, and 

removed the requirements for the 

annual plans in the final rule titled, 

‘‘Amendments to Implement Grants 

Provisions of the Fixing America’s 

Surface Transportation Act.’’ FMCSA 

published this rule in the Federal 

Register on October 14, 2016 [81 FR 

71010]. These changes allow States to 

use a multi-year plan, but do not require 

it. 

The FAST Act section 5101, 

amending 49 U.S.C. 31102, required 

significant changes to the Agency’s 

grant programs, including moving the 

border enforcement and new entrant 

programs into the MCSAP for allocation 

via the formula. In addition, section
