SURFACE TRANSPORTATION BOARD

[Docket No. FD 36624]


Mountain Pacific Railroad LLC--Lease and Operation Exemption--
Moss Landing Commercial Park LLC at Moss Landing, Monterey County, Cal.

    Mountain Pacific Railroad LLC (MPR), a noncarrier, has filed a 
verified notice of exemption under 49 CFR 1150.31 to acquire by lease 
and operate approximately 6,818.7 feet of track, totaling 1.29 miles, 
located at Moss Landing Commercial Park, LLC (MLCP), Moss Landing, 
Monterey County, Cal. (the Line).
    According to MPR, the Line is currently private track owned by 
MLCP. MPR states that it has entered into a lease agreement with MLCP 
under which MPR will operate and provide all rail common carrier 
service on the Line. The verified notice indicates that initial 
operations will consist of transloading propane from railcars into 
truck for local delivery.
    MPR certifies that its projected annual revenues from this 
transaction will not result in its becoming a Class I or Class II rail 
carrier and will not exceed $5 million. MPR also certifies that the 
proposed transaction does not include an interchange commitment.
    The transaction may be consummated on or after July 23, 2022, the 
effective date of the exemption (30 days after the verified notice was 
filed).
    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 automatically stay the effectiveness of the 
exemption. Petitions for stay must be filed no later than July 15, 2022 
(at least seven days before the exemption becomes effective).
    All pleadings, referring to Docket No. FD 36624, must be filed with 
the Surface Transportation Board either via e-filing on the Board's 
website or in writing addressed to 395 E Street SW, Washington, DC 
20423-0001. In addition, a copy of each pleading must be served on 
MPR's representative, Thomas F. McFarland, Thomas F.
