87.0833333 hours annually to comply

Under 49 CFR 1011.7(a)(2)(x)(A), the
Director of the Office of Proceedings
(Director) is delegated the authority to
determine whether to issue notices of
exemption under 49 U.S.C. 10502 for
operation transactions under 49 U.S.C.
10901. However, the Board reserves to
itself the consideration and disposition
of all matters involving issues of general
transportation importance. 49 CFR
1011.2(a)(6). Accordingly, the Board
will revoke the delegation to the
Director with respect to issuance of the
notice of exemption for dispatching
operations of the rail line at issue in this
case. The Board determines that this
notice of exemption should be issued,
and does so here.1
1 Should it choose to do so, the Board retains the
ability to revisit its precedent in Rail-Term Corp.—
Petition for Declaratory Order, FD 35582 (STB
served Nov. 19, 2013), in an appropriate
proceeding. It chooses not to do so here because of
the facts and circumstances—in particular, timing
needs—presented by ABL.

Notice
Alameda Belt Line (ABL), a
noncarrier, has filed a verified notice of
exemption pursuant to 49 CFR 1150.31
‘‘to assume by subcontract the
dispatching operations’’ over the
Alameda Corridor, an approximately
16.1-mile railroad corridor between
milepost 0.0 at CP East Redondo in Los
Angeles, Cal., and milepost 16.1 at CP
West Thenard in Los Angeles (the Line).
According to the verified notice, BNSF
Railway Company (BNSF) and Union
Pacific Railroad Company (UP) have
operating rights over the Line. The
verified notice states that UP currently
handles Line dispatching with BNSF
oversight pursuant to an agreement
among BNSF, UP, and the Alameda
Corridor Transportation Authority, the
Line’s administrator. ABL is a private
entity owned in equal parts by BNSF
and UP.
ABL certifies that its annual projected
revenues as a result of the transaction
will not exceed those that would qualify
it as a Class III carrier and will not
exceed $5 million. ABL also states that
the transaction does not involve any
interchange commitments.
By decision served on July 11, 2024,
the effective date of the exemption was
postponed until further order of the
Board, to provide sufficient time for
evaluation of the matters raised by the
verified notice.
On July 19, 2024, ABL filed a letter
(Letter) requesting that the Board take
immediate action on the verified notice.
ABL states that the Federal Railroad
Administration’s (FRA) issuance of 49
CFR part 245—Certification of
Dispatchers, effective July 22, 2024,
imposes a 120-day approval process for
a new railroad’s dispatching training
program. (Letter 2.) ABL states that it
must begin dispatching operations by
July 22, 2024, to avoid substantial
delays resulting from the FRA’s
approval process under the new
regulation. (See id.)
The Board determines that the notice
of exemption should be published. In
light of the need for expedited
effectiveness as described in the Letter,
the Board finds good cause to permit the
exemption to become effective on the
date of service of this decision.2
If the verified 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 will not
2 For the same reasons, the Board will waive the
provision at 49 CFR 1150.32(c) regarding the filing
of stay petitions prior to effectiveness.
