[STB Finance Docket No. 33389]


The Land Conservancy of Seattle and King County--Acquisition and 
Operation Exemption--The Burlington Northern and Santa Fe Railway 
Company

    The Land Conservancy of Seattle and King County, a noncarrier, has 
filed a verified notice of exemption under 49 CFR 1150.31 to acquire 
and operate approximately 12.45 miles of rail line from The Burlington 
Northern and Santa Fe Railway Company between milepost 7.30, near 
Redmond, and milepost 19.75, at Issaquah, in King County, WA.
    The transaction was scheduled to be consummated on or after the 
April 22, 1997 effective date of the exemption.
    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. 10502(d) may be filed at any time. 
The filing of a petition to revoke will not automatically stay the 
transaction.
    An original and 10 copies of all pleadings, referring to STB 
Finance Docket No. 33389, must be filed with the Surface Transportation 
Board, Office of the Secretary, Case Control Unit, 1925 K Street, NW, 
Washington, DC 20423-0001. In addition, a copy of each pleading must be 
served on Charles H. Montange, 426 NW 162d Street, Seattle, WA 98177.

    Decided: April 23, 1997.

    By the Board, David M. Konschnik, Director, Office of 
Proceedings.
