64884 Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 211 / Friday, October 31, 2014 / Notices 

ACTION: Issuance of Supplemental 

Environmental Assessment; request for 

comments. 

SUMMARY: On July 2, 2013, Applicants, 

CSX Transportation, Inc. (CSXT) and 

Louisville & Indiana Railroad Company, 

Inc. (L&I), filed an application with the 

Surface Transportation Board (Board) 

pursuant to 49 United States Code 

(U.S.C.) 11323 and 49 Code of Federal 

Regulations (CFR) part 1180. Applicants 

seek Board authority for CSXT to 

acquire from and jointly use with the 

L&I a perpetual, non-exclusive railroad 

operating easement over L&I’s rail line. 

The subject L&I rail line extends from a 

connection with CSXT in Indianapolis, 

Indiana at milepost (MP) 4.0, to a 

connection with CSXT in Louisville, 

Kentucky at MP 110.5 (L&I Line). The 

joint use and easement acquisition are 

referred to as the Proposed Transaction. 

Both CSXT and L&I would continue to 

use the L&I Line. CSXT would pay L&I 

$10 million dollars for the operating 

easement and would spend between $70 

and $90 million to improve the rail line 

to allow CSXT to move longer, faster, 

and heavier trains. 

Currently, the L&I Line carries two to 

seven trains per day on the various 

sections of the line. Under the Proposed 

Transaction, CSXT would reroute some 

of its trains from current CSXT routes in 

the Indiana-Ohio-Kentucky region to a 

new route that includes the L&I Line in 

Indiana. The rerouting of these CSXT 

trains would add 13 to 15 trains per day 

over the various sections of the L&I 

Line. 

In August 2013, the Board’s Office of 

Environmental Analysis (OEA) issued a 

Draft Environmental Assessment (EA) 

that focused on the potential impacts of 

the proposed operational changes on the 

L&I Line, and also considered potential 

construction impacts associated with 

the extension of several rail line sidings 

and replacement of the Flatrock River 

Bridge, all on the L&I Line. During the 

public review and comment period on 

the Draft EA, OEA received comments 

that raised environmental issues that it 

had not addressed in the document. As 

a result, OEA decided to prepare a 

Supplemental EA focusing on the new 

environmental issues. 

Today, OEA has issued the 

Supplemental EA, which is available on 

the Board’s Web site, www.stb.dot.gov, 

by clicking ‘‘Decisions’’ under ‘‘Quick 

Links,’’ and locating the document 

under the service date of 10/31/2014. 

The Supplemental EA analyzes the 

potential operational impacts of CSXT 

moving additional trains on the 

following three CSXT rail lines: 

Indianapolis Terminal Subdivision— 

Louisville Secondary Branch, 

Indianapolis Line Subdivision, and 

Louisville Connection. The 

Supplemental EA also quantifies 

potential impacts to wetlands, 

floodplains, and forested areas that 

could result from extending rail line 

sidings and replacing the Flatrock River 

Bridge on the L&I Line, and includes a 

review of potential changes in wildlife 

strikes that could occur under the 

Proposed Transaction. 

Additionally, the Indiana State 

Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) and 

OEA concur that (1) replacement of the 

Flatrock River Bridge would constitute 

an adverse effect on a historic property 

considered eligible for inclusion on the 

National Register of Historic Places; (2) 

avoidance of the adverse effect is not 

feasible if the L&I Line is to safely 

accommodate the modern rail traffic 

under the Proposed Transaction; (3) 

there appears to be no feasible 

alternative to bridge replacement and 

that documentation prior to removal 

would be an appropriate mitigation 

measure; (4) documentation completed 

by Applicants meets SHPO’s standards; 

and (5) a Memorandum of Agreement 

(MOA) would memorialize the 

mitigation measures (i.e., 

documentation) and resolve adverse 

effects of the undertaking. OEA 

prepared a draft MOA that SHPO 

indicates it would sign as currently 

drafted. The draft MOA is located in 

Appendix I of the Supplemental EA and 

interested parties are invited to 

comment. 

DATES: Interested parties are invited to 

submit written comments on the 

Supplemental EA by December 1, 2014 

to assure full consideration. If you 

submitted comments on the Draft EA, 

you do not need to resubmit those 

comments. OEA will consider and 

respond to comments received on both 

the Draft EA and on today’s 

Supplemental EA in the Final EA. The 

Board will issue a final decision on the 

proposed transaction after issuance of 

the Final EA.

[Docket No. FD 35864] 

Escanaba & Lake Superior Railway 

Company—Lease and Operation 

Exemption—Rail Line of Wisconsin 

Central Ltd. in Menominee County, 

Mich., and Marinette County, Wis. 

Escanaba & Lake Superior Railway 

Company (E&LS), a Class III rail carrier, 

has filed a verified notice of exemption 

under 49 CFR 1150.41 to lease from 

Wisconsin Central Ltd., and to operate, 

pursuant to a non-exclusive lease 

agreement executed on September 30, 

2014, approximately 2.8 miles of rail 

line that consists of the following 

segments: Track #129 at Menominee, in 

Menominee County, Mich., Track #270 

at Marinette, Wis., and approximately 

3,000 lineal feet of Track #115 at 

Marinette, in Marinette County, Wis. 

E&LS states that there are no mileposts 

on the subject line segments. 

According to E&LS, the lease 

agreement between the parties will 

facilitate providing switching services to 

shippers on the line segments. E&LS 

states that the lease does not contain 

any provision or agreement that may 

limit future interchange of traffic with a 

third-party connecting carrier. 

E&LS states that it expects to 

consummate the transaction on 

November 10, 2014. The earliest this 

transaction can be consummated is 

November 15, 2014, the effective date of 

this exemption (30 days after the 

verified notice of exemption was filed). 

E&LS certifies that its projected 

annual revenues as a result of this 

transaction will not result in E&LS 

becoming a Class I or Class II rail carrier 

and will not exceed $5 million. 

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

Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 211 / Friday, October 31, 2014 / Notices 64885 

the exemption. Petitions to stay must be 

filed by November 7, 2014 (at least 

seven days prior to the date the 

exemption becomes effective). 

An original and 10 copies of all 

pleadings, referring to Docket No. FD 

35864, 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 applicant’s representative, 

Keith G. O’Brien, Baker & Miller PLLC,
