Please do not allow the Tongue River Railroad to construct a rail line from Otter Creek to Colstrip. This part of Montana is precious country for agriculture and the livelihoods of generations of families. Montana needs also to be a leader in addressing that coal shipped to Asia contributes to global warming--and WHY are we sending coal to Asian markets when we don't use it in the United States??? These items need to be addressed: -Because of the new route, you should reopen the public comment period and hold a hearing in Colstrip. -It is necessary analyze the devastating effects climate change will have on Montana and the nation and to analyze harm to existing agricultural operations and livelihoods along the new route. Sincerely, Tarn Ream
