San Jacinto Transportation Company, Inc.--Operation Exemption--
SJRE-Railroad Series

    San Jacinto Transportation Company, Inc. (SJTC), a noncarrier, has 
filed a verified notice of exemption under 49 CFR 1150.31 to operate 
approximately 6.0 miles of rail line owned by SJRE-Railroad Series 
(SJRE), pursuant to an operating agreement with SJRE,\1\ in Harris 
County, Tex. (the Line). The Line is located within the San Jacinto 
River and Rail Park and will connect with Union Pacific Railroad 
Company (UP) and BNSF Railway Company (BNSF) near mileposts 344-346 on 
the Lafayette Subdivision.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ SJRE is an entity within San Jacinto Real Estate, a series 
of LLCs' formed under the laws of Texas.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The transaction may be consummated on or after April 9, 2016, the 
effective date of the exemption (30 days after the exemption was 
filed).
    SJTC certifies that, as a result of this transaction, its projected 
revenues will not result in the creation of a Class II or Class I rail 
carrier and will not exceed $5 million.
    SJTC states that the operating agreement does not involve a 
provision or agreement which may limit future interchange with a third 
party connecting carrier. SJTC further states that, once the exemption 
becomes effective, it anticipates that UP and BNSF will enter into an 
interchange or switching agreement for SJTC to serve customers on the 
Line.
    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 to stay must be

becomes effective).
