396.32), in Mineral Bluff, a distance of 2.85 miles in Fannin County.
The transaction is expected to be consummated on or after the
effective date of the exemption. Because the notice of exemption was
filed on October 3, 1997, the transaction can be consummated no sooner
than October 10, 1997.
If the 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 does not automatically stay the transaction.
An original and 10 copies of all pleadings, referring to STB
Finance Docket No. 33489, must be filed with the Surface Transportation
Board, Office of the Secretary, Case Control Unit, 1925 K Street, N.W.,
Washington, DC 20423-0001. In addition, a copy of each pleading must be
served on Kevin R. Armbruster, Esq., Cushing, Morris, Armbruster &

Proceedings.
