Comment EI-19676
Received or sent (printed as 1/9/2013)
The environmental impact statement for the proposed Tongue River Railroad should analyze the following: Public convenience and necessity: This proposed railroad is not for the “public convenience and necessity” which is what is required in order for a body to get the power of eminent domain and condemnation authority. This railroad would serve only one coal company giant, Arch Coal, which intends to sell the coal to China and other Asian countries. It will have serious health consequences to the public and will negatively impact the economies and traffic of all the cities and towns it passes through. Kristin Barber
