Comment EI-23532

Received or sent 8 Jun 2016 (printed as 6/8/2016)

There are many environmental concerns regarding the Great Lakes Basin Rail line/yard. My environmental concern is farmland fragmentation. The access to my crop fields on both sides of the corridor and the current efficient farmland equipment is made for bigger fields; hence, smaller fields and the current farmland equipment will not work together.
