30-Day FRN

Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 68 / Wednesday, April 9, 2014 / Notices
Transportation (TDOT), is rescinding
the notice of intent to prepare an EIS for
an upgrade to the existing State Route
18 from State Route-64 at Bolivar to
State Route-100, Hardeman County. The
proposed project was approximately 10
miles in length and had been developed
to bypass downtown Bolivar.
TDOT conducted public involvement
and agency coordination, developed a
purpose and need for the project and
developed preliminary alternatives. In
August of 2012, TDOT circulated and
requested comments on a Preliminary
Draft EIS (PDEIS) that was sent to
agencies participating in Tennessee’s
Environmental Streamlining Agreement,
including FHWA. Following the PDEIS,
TDOT further considered the cost of the
project, the project purpose and need
and a southern bypass of Bolivar, a
separate project that had been approved
in a 2004 NEPA Finding of No
Significant Impact. They also
considered the adverse comments
received from the public and resource
agencies related to purpose and need,
environmental impacts and project cost.
Upon full consideration of the issues
identified, FHWA and TDOT
determined that they would not pursue
the State Route 18 (Bolivar Northern
Bypass) project.
Comments and questions concerning
the proposed action should be directed
to FHWA at the address provided above.

Surface Transportation Board
[Docket No. AB 290 (Sub-No. 362X)]

Norfolk Southern Railway Company—
Discontinuance of Service
Exemption—in Isle of Wight County
and the City of Suffolk, Va.
On March 20, 2014, Norfolk Southern
Railway Company (NSR) filed with the
Surface Transportation Board (Board) a
petition under 49 U.S.C. 10502 for
exemption from the provisions of 49
U.S.C. 10903 to discontinue service over
approximately 17.8 miles of rail line in
Isle of Wight County and the
independent City of Suffolk, Va.,
extending from milepost FD 19.2 in
Suffolk to milepost FD 37.0 near
Franklin, Va. (the Line). The Line
traverses United States Postal Service
Zip Codes 23434, 23437, and 23851, and
includes the stations of Franklin,
Holland, and Suffolk (the petition states
that Suffolk will remain an active
station because a portion of that station
is located east of the subject
discontinuance limits). According to the
petition, the Line is stub-ended and
therefore not capable of handling
overhead traffic.
NSR states that, based on information
in its possession, the Line does not
contain federally granted rights-of-way.
Any documentation in NSR’s possession
will be made available promptly to
those requesting it.
The interest of railroad employees
will be protected by the conditions set
forth in Oregon Short Line Railroad—
Abandonment Portion Goshen Branch
Between Firth & Ammon, in Bingham &
Bonneville Counties, Idaho, 360 I.C.C.
91 (1979).
By issuance of this notice, the Board
is instituting an exemption proceeding
pursuant to 49 U.S.C. 10502(b). A final
decision will be issued by July 8, 2014.
Because this is a discontinuance
proceeding and not an abandonment
proceeding, interim trail use/rail
banking and public use conditions are
not appropriate. Similarly, no
environmental or historic
documentation is required under 49
CFR 1105.6(c)(2) and 1105.8(b).
