INTERSTATE COMMERCE COMMISSION

[Finance Docket No. 32322]

 

Vaughan Railroad Company--Construction Exemption--Nicholas and 
Fayette Counties, WV

AGENCY: Interstate Commerce Commission.
ACTION: Notice of availability of environmental assessment.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: By decision served November 4, 1993 in this proceeding, the 
Commission granted, subject to environmental review, Vaughan Railroad 
Company's petition for exemption from the requirements of 49 U.S.C. 
10901 for the construction and operation over two railroad segments--a 
8.8 mile railroad extension and a 0.4 mile connecting track in Nicholas 
and Fayette Counties, West Virginia. The effective date of the decision 
was postponed until completion of the Commission's environmental review 
and further decision. The Commission has prepared its environmental 
assessment which concludes that the proposed action will not 
significantly affect either the quality of the human environment or the 
conservation of energy resources. The Commission will consider any 
comments to the conclusions reached in the environmental assessment 
before rendering a final decision in this proceeding.

DATES: Written comments must be filed by July 1, 1994.
