I would like to know how the rail line is going to replace all the trees cut down to build this line. Trees are vital to the health of the environment and cutting down them to simply build an unneeded rail line, means they should have to replace them with new trees. This is especially a concern in the wooded areas near the many rivers and streams this line will run over and through. Also how will the rail road account for season streams that only come with large rain falls? This line will block natural drainage and is a huge concern.
