    On May 3, 2016, BNSF Railway Company (BNSF) filed with the Surface

exemption from the provisions of 49 U.S.C. 10903 to abandon an 
approximately 0.89-mile rail line on BNSF's Lumber District Lead 
beginning just west of Laflin Street at Engineering Station 118+00 and 
proceeding east along West Cermak Road to the most easterly point at 
Engineering Station 157+65 and heading north along the Sangamon Street 
Lead at Engineering Station 163+50, including both legs of the wye, in 
Chicago, Cook County, Ill. (the Line). The Line traverses United States 
Postal Zip Code 60608.
    BNSF states that the Line does not contain federally granted 
rights-of-way. Any documentation in BNSF's possession will be made 
available promptly to those requesting it.
    The interest of railroad employees will be protected by the 
conditions set forth in Oregon Short Line Railroad--Abandonment Portion

the Line may be suitable for other public use, including interim trail 
use. Any request for a public use condition under 49 CFR 1152.28 or for
