SURFACE TRANSPORTATION BOARD

[Docket No. FD 36129]


Iowa River Railroad, Inc.--Acquisition and Operation Exemption--
Rail Line of North Central Railway Association, Inc.

    Iowa River Railroad, Inc. (IRR), a Class III rail carrier, has 
filed a verified notice of exemption under 49 CFR 1150.41 to acquire 
from North Central Railway Association, Inc., and operate 0.59 miles of 
rail line, between Milepost 200.87 and Milepost 201.46, at or near 
Ackley, in Hardin County, Iowa.
    IRR certifies that the projected annual revenues as a result of 
this transaction will not result in the creation of a Class II or Class 
I rail carrier and will not exceed $5 million.
    IRR further certifies that the transaction does not include an 
interchange commitment.
    The transaction may be consummated on July 13, 2017, the effective 
date of the exemption (30 days after the verified notice was filed).
    If the 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 automatically stay the transaction. Petitions for stay 
must be filed no later than July 6, 2017 (at least seven days before 
the exemption becomes effective).
    An original and 10 copies of all pleadings, referring to Docket No. 
FD 36129, must be filed with the Surface Transportation Board, 395 E 
Street SW., Washington, DC 20423-0001. In addition, one copy of each 
pleading must be served on T. Scott Bannister, 111 SW., Fifty-Sixth 
St., Des Moines, IA 50312.
    According to IRR, this action is categorically excluded from 
environmental review under 49 CFR 1105.6(c).
