Comment EI-23412

Received or sent (printed as 6/5/2016)

My husband and I respectfully request the STB deny the above referenced project because permanent destruction of prime farmland would take place. The county would lose 5% of its farmland and be detrimental to our local economy. Along with a decline in the local economy, an approximate 200 permanent jobs would be lost. Please deny the Great Lakes Basin Railroad project!
