INTERSTATE COMMERCE COMMISSION
[Finance Docket No. 32667]


Georgia Department of Transportation--Acquisition Exemption--
Central of Georgia Railroad Company

    The Georgia Department of Transportation (GDOT), a non-carrier, has 
filed a verified notice under 49 CFR Part 1150, Subpart D--Exempt 
Transactions to acquire from Central of Georgia Railroad Company (COG) 
a [[Page 12572]] 21.1-mile rail line between milepost SA-36.4, at 
Ardmore, and milepost SA-57.5, at Sylvania, in Effingham and Screven 
Counties, GA. The transaction also involves COG's assignment to GDOT of 
its interest, as lessor, in a lease agreement under which the line will 
continue to be operated by Ogeechee Railway Company (Ogeechee). The 
Commission exempted Ogeechee's operation of the line under the lease in 
Istra Corporation--Assignment of Lease and Interchange Agreement 
Exemption--Ogeechee Railway Company, Finance Docket No. 31478 (ICC 
served June 19, 1989). The involved transaction was to have been 
consummated as soon as possible after the exemption's February 17, 
1995, effective date.
    If the verified notice contains false or misleading information, 
the exemption is void ab initio. Petitions to reopen the proceeding to 
revoke the exemption under 49 U.S.C. 10505(d) may be filed at any time. 
The filing of a petition to reopen will not stay the exemption's 
effectiveness. Pleadings must be filed with the Commission and served 
on George P. Shingler, 40 Capitol Square, SW., Atlanta, GA 30334-1300.

    Decided: February 28, 1995.

    By the Commission, David M. Konschnik, Director, Office of 
Proceedings.
Vernon A. Williams,
Secretary.
