[STB Finance Docket No. 33920]


Big Eagle Rail, LLC--Lease and Operation Exemption--Kanawha Rail 
Corp.

    Big Eagle Rail, LLC, a noncarrier, has filed a verified notice of 
exemption under 49 CFR 1150.31 to lease from Kanawha Rail Corp. and 
operate rail trackage located in Kanawha County, WV, together with 
other associated rail properties (trackage). The trackage extends from 
its northern terminus at an interchange with CSX Transportation, Inc., 
at CSX Station 670+30, south along Fields Creek, in Cabin Creek 
District, for approximately 6.47 miles, to its southern terminus.
    The parties reported that they intended to consummate the 
transaction promptly upon the effective date of the exemption. The 
earliest the transaction could have been consummated was September 1, 
2000, 7 days after the exemption was filed.
    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. 33920, must be filed with the Surface Transportation 
Board, Office of the Secretary, Case Control Unit, 1925 K Street, N.W., 
Washington, DC 20423-0001. In addition, a copy of each pleading must be 
served on Kelvin J. Dowd, Esq., Slover & Loftus, 1224 Seventeenth 
Street, N.W., Washington, DC 20036.
    Board decisions and notices are available on our website at

    Decided: September 7, 2000.
    By the Board, David M. Konschnik, Director, Office of 
Proceedings.
