[Docket No. FD 35822]


Oakland Global Rail Enterprise, LLC--Operation Exemption--Rail 
Line of Union Pacific Railroad Company and BNSF Railway Company

    Oakland Global Rail Enterprise, LLC (OGRE), a noncarrier, has filed 
a verified notice of exemption under 49 CFR 1150.31 to operate over 
approximately 1.8 miles of track consisting of: (1) Approximately 3,800 
feet of track owned by Union Pacific Railroad Company (UP) that runs 
between 2001 Engineers Road and the end of the UP interchange track; 
and (2) approximately 5,622 feet of track owned by BNSF Railway Company 
that runs between a point at or near the Bay Bridge Freeway and the 
Gary Steel facilities on 20th Street in Oakland, Alameda County, Cal.
    According to OGRE, the transaction does not involve any provision 
or agreement that would limit future interchange of traffic with any 
third-party carrier. OGRE states that it will hold itself out to 
provide all common carrier rail freight service over the tracks.
    OGRE intends to consummate the proposed transaction on or before 
January 1, 2015, which is after the effective date of this exemption 
(30 days after the exemption was filed).
    OGRE certifies that their projected annual revenues as a result of 
this transaction will not result in its becoming a Class III rail 
carrier and will not exceed $5 million.
    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 filed no later than May 23, 2014 
(at least 7 days before the exemption becomes effective).
    An original and 10 copies of all pleadings, referring to Docket No. 
FD
