    SUMMARY: The Executive Committee of the Western Railroad Traffic 
    Association (WRTA), by letter filed March 10, 1994, has asked to be 
    allowed to withdraw and cancel the WRTA section 5(b) authority on file 
    at the Commission. The Committee indicates that WRTA no longer conducts 
    any of the discussions or joint voting covered by 49 U.S.C. 10706. The 
    Committee states that WRTA ``does not conduct any discussion related to 
    rates (including charges between rail carriers and compensation paid or 
    received for the use of facilities and equipment), classification, 
    divisions or rules related to them or procedures for joint 
    consideration, initiation, or establishment of them under the agreement 
    approved in section 5(b) Application No. 2, Western Railroads 
    Agreement.'' WRTA added that, ``[F]or the future, the Organization will 
    exist solely for compilation, publication and other distribution of 
    rates as provided for in section 10706(a)(4) Paragraph 4.''
