19112 Federal Register / Vol. 61, No. 84 / Tuesday, April 30, 1996 / Notices

1The ICC Termination Act of 1995, Pub. L. No.

104–88, 109 Stat. 803, which was enacted on

December 29, 1995, and took effect on January 1,

1996, abolished the Interstate Commerce

Commission and transferred certain functions to the

Surface Transportation Board (Board). This notice

relates to functions that are subject to Board

jurisdiction pursuant to 49 U.S.C. 10901.

2 IORP has concurrently filed a notice of

exemption in STB Finance Docket No. 32894 under

49 CFR 1180.2(d)(7) to acquire trackage rights as a

rail carrier. Because acquisition of trackage rights by

a noncarrier, which would become a Class III carrier

after completion of the transaction, appears to be

covered by the exemption procedures under section

1150.31, the notice of exemption filed in STB

Finance Docket No. 32894 might be unnecessary

unless one or more of the trackage rights

transactions will occur after another of the

transactions, in which case IORP will have already

become a carrier and thus require exemption under

section 1180.2(d)(7).
