SURFACE TRANSPORTATION BOARD
[Docket No. FD 36625]
Omni River Ridge, LLC d/b/a River Ridge Railroad--Operation
Exemption--in Clark County, Ind.
Omni River Ridge, LLC d/b/a River Ridge Railroad (RRR), a
noncarrier controlled by short line holding company OmniTRAX Holdings
Combined, Inc.
(OmniTRAX) has filed a verified notice of exemption pursuant to 49
CFR 1150.31 to operate a segment of track that extends from a point of
connection with a line of CSX Transportation, Inc., Hoosier
Subdivision, Branch NABB BR, at milepost B 0041.950 at Charlestown,
Ind., roughly southward for 4,980 feet to the north end of the wye
track (proximate to Patrol Road), a distance of approximately 0.943
miles in Clark County, Ind. (the Line).
This transaction is related to a concurrently filed verified notice
of exemption in OmniTRAX Holdings Combined, Inc.--Continuance in
Control Exemption--Omni River Ridge, LLC d/b/a River Ridge Railroad,
Docket No. FD 36626, in which OmniTRAX and HGS Railway Holdings seek to
continue in control of RRR upon RRR's becoming a Class III rail
carrier.
According to the verified notice, the Line was historically used
for non-common carrier railroad purposes. RRR states that it has
acquired the title to the assets that comprise the Line and seeks Board
authorization to initiate railroad common carrier operations over the
Line.
RRR states that the proposed transaction does not involve any
provision or agreement that would limit future interchange on the Line
with a third-party connecting carrier. RRR certifies that its projected
annual revenue will not exceed $5 million and that the proposed
transaction will not result in RRR's becoming a Class I or II rail
carrier.
The earliest this transaction may be consummated is July 29, 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)
[[Page 42538]]
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 22, 2022.
All pleadings, referring to Docket No. FD 36625, must be filed with
the Surface Transportation Board 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 RRR's
representative, Robert A. Wimbish, Fletcher & Sippel LLC, 29 North
Wacker Drive, Suite 800, Chicago, IL 60606-3208.
According to RRR, this action is categorically excluded from
environmental review under 49 CFR 1105.6(c) and from historic
preservation reporting requirements under 49 CFR 1105.8(b).

Decided: July 12, 2022.
By the Board, Mai T. Dinh, Director, Office of Proceedings.
Raina White,
Clearance Clerk.
