Clark County, perhaps the (largest) county (Area) in Southern Indiana, as well as been part of the (Louisville, Ky) Metropolitan Area, is poised for growth & economic development. The Clark County Airport is on schedule, for run-way expansion, (adjacent) to these rail lines, The new River Ridge Commerce Center is expanding with major business's relocating (Amazon) Distribution Center, and a rail spur going in to the Commerce Center. I/We believe there to be no increased or negative impact, as to letting these (2) rail carriers increase volume. I/We feel that the opportunity for economic growth and development, will spur even more business opportunity, creating more jobs and broaden Clark County's tax base. We do work closely with CSX & LIRC, as First Responders, Haz-Mat Techs, EMS, Disaster Preparedness Planners, coordinating the rail carriers safety expertise, with our mitigation response teams, we believe we are prepared to handle the additional traffic, in years to come. In conclusion I respectfully request your agency's consideration, in allowing this operation to proceed. Thanking You, Leslie K. Kavanaugh, Sr. Executive Director Clark County Emergency Management Agency
