and lease it to a customer who plans to redevelop 

the site and use the track to reach its facility.

Abstract of proposed collection: 

Forms for this collection are completed 

by panel physicians for refugees, aliens 

seeking immigrant visas, and for some 

aliens seeking nonimmigrant visas to 

the United States. The collection 

records medical information necessary 

to determine whether refugees or visa 

applicants have medical conditions 

affecting the applicant’s eligibility for a 

visa, or affecting the public health and 

requiring treatment. 

Methodology: A panel physician, 

contracted by the consular post in 

accordance with instructions issued by 

the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), 

performs the medical examination of the 

applicant and completes the forms. 

Panel physicians follow Forms DS– 

3025, DS–3026, and DS–3030. Upon 

completing the applicant’s medical 

examination, the examining panel 

physician submits a report to the 

consular officer on Form DS–2054.

CSX Transportation, Inc.— 

Abandonment Exemption—In 

Greenbrier and Nicholas Counties, WV 

CSX Transportation, Inc. (CSXT) has 

filed a verified notice of exemption 

under 49 CFR pt. 1152 subpart F— 

Exempt Abandonments to abandon an 

approximately 14.4-mile rail line, 

known as the G&E Subdivision, in the 

Southern Region, Florence Division, 

between milepost CAJ 0.0 at the switch 

to the Sewell Valley Subdivision 

mainline track in Rainelle, and the end 

of the line at milepost CAJ 14.43 about 

two miles northeast of Green Valley, in 

Greenbrier and Nicholas Counties, W. 

Va. (the Line).1 The Line traverses 

United States Postal Service Zip Codes 

25962, 25981, and 26676 and includes 

the Quinwood station (FSAC 83070/ 

SPLC 278129), the Bellburn station 

(FSAC 83062/SPLC 278121), and the 

Rainelle Jct. station (FSAC 83044/SPLC 

278176). CSXT states that these stations 

can be closed. 

CSXT has certified that: (1) No local 

freight traffic has moved over the Line 

for at least two years; (2) because the 

Line is not a through route, no overhead 

traffic has operated; and, therefore, none 

needs 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 will be effective on October 

17, 2017, unless stayed pending 

reconsideration. Petitions to stay that do 

not involve environmental issues,2

formal expressions of intent to file an 

OFA under 49 CFR 1152.27(c)(2),3 and 

interim trail use/rail banking requests 

under 49 CFR 1152.29 must be filed by 

September 25, 2017. Petitions to reopen 

or requests for public use conditions 

under 49 CFR 1152.28 must be filed by 

October 5, 2017, 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 Louis E. 

Gitomer, Law Offices of Louis E. 

Gitomer, LLC, 600 Baltimore Avenue, 

Suite 301, Towson, MD 21204. 

If the verified notice contains false or 

misleading information, the exemption 

is void ab initio. 

CSXT 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 

September 22, 2017. 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 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), CSXT 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 

CSXT’s filing of a notice of 

consummation by September 15, 2018, 

and there are no legal or regulatory 

barriers to consummation, the authority 

to abandon will automatically expire.

Director, Office of Proceedings.
