[Docket No. AB-167; Sub-No. 1125]

 

Consolidated Rail Corporation--Abandonment--Between Warsaw and 
Valparaiso, in Kosciusko, Marshall, Starke, La Porte and Porter 
Counties, IN

    The Commission has found that the public convenience and necessity 
permit Consolidated Rail Corporation (Conrail), to abandon its 61-mile 
rail line known as the Fort Wayne Line, from milepost 363.0 near Warsaw 
to milepost 424.0 near Valparaiso, in Kosciusko, Marshall, Starke, La 
Porte and Porter Counties, IN.
    A certificate will be issued authorizing abandonment unless within 
15 days after publication of this notice the Commission finds that: (1) 
A financially responsible person has offered financial assistance 
(through subsidy or purchase) to enable rail service to continue; and 
(2) it is likely that such assistance would fully compensate Conrail.
    Requests for public use conditions must be filed with the 
Commission and Conrail within 10 days after publication.
    Any offers of financial assistance must be filed with the 
Commission and Conrail no later than 10 days from the date of 
publication of this Notice. The following notation must be typed in 
bold face on the lower left-hand corner of the envelope containing the 
offer: ``Section of Legal Counsel, AB-OFA''. Any offer previously made 
must be remade within this 10-day period.
    Information and procedures regarding financial assistance for 
continued rail service are contained in 49 U.S.C. 10905 and 49 CFR 
1152.27. Requests for public use conditions must conform with 49 CFR 
1152.28(a)(2).

    Decided: December 21, 1993.

    By the Commission, Chairman McDonald, Vice Chairman Simmons, 
Commissioners Phillips and Philbin. Chairman McDonald commented with
