Corman Railroad Property, LLC (RJCP) as incidental trackage rights to a lease of another line exempted under 49 CFR Sec. 1150.41 in R.J. Corman Railroad Property, LLC--Lease Exemption--Line of CSX Transportation, Inc., FD 34625 (STB served Mar. 4, 2005). RJCP assigned the trackage rights to RJCC, its corporate affiliate. The assignment was exempted under 49 CFR Sec. 1150.41 in R.J. Corman Railroad/Central Kentucky Lines, LLC--Acquisition and Operation Exemption--Line of R.J. Corman Railroad Property, LLC, FD 34624 (STB served Feb. 23, 2005).

See R.J.Corman R.R./Cent. Ky. Lines, LLC--Trackage Rights Exemption--CSX Transp., Inc., FD 35124, (STB served Apr. 10, 2008). \2\ Applicant states that the earlier notices of exemption (FD 34624, FD 34625, and FD 35124) referred to the HK Tower being located at milepost 12.49. In this notice, it is referred to as being located at milepost 12.5, but applicant explains that it is in the same location as before. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- The transaction may be consummated on or after September 10, 2010, the effective date of the exemption (30 days after the exemption is filed). The purpose of the amended trackage rights agreement is to allow RJCC to move ties, ballast and other track material efficiently in coordination with the movement of its aluminum unit trains. As a condition to this exemption, any employees affected by the trackage rights will be protected by the conditions imposed in Norfolk and Western Railway--Trackage Rights--Burlington Northern, Inc., 354 I.C.C. 605 (1978), as modified in Mendocino Coast Railway--Lease and Operate--California Western Railroad, 360 I.C.C. 653 (1980).

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. Stay petitions must be filed by September 3, 2010 (at least 7 days before the exemption becomes effective).
