I defer to the expertise of the Center for Biological Diversity, and Physicians for a Healthy Environment et al, in their assertion that \"The Draft EA fails to acknowledge that the true purpose of this rail line is to incentivize development of over 35 million square feet of industrial development on land that is currently open space, uplands, playa and wetlands and in some places less than a mile from Great Salt Lake, a critical water body on the verge of ecological collapse.\" The need for additional warehouse space is questionable in itself, but the need to cite huge projects in such sensitive areas does not exist. (The economic benefit to the community has not been explained.) Please note the proximity of the Utah Inland Port in Salt Lake City and a proposed project in in nearby Grantsville. The obvious harm is first to wildlife habitat, either by loss of land area or from toxic storm water run-off.

The Draft EA is profoundly incomplete, riddled with contradictions, and a denial of the impact the project will have on the most affected communities and the most heavily populated communities of Utah.

The Savage Tooele Railroad is part of a larger conspiracy to sacrifice for profit the life span and well being of the millions of people and animals that live around the Great Salt Lake basin. We have the worst air pollution in the world at times due to cold temperature inversions. The ozone is horrible. Industrial development is hastening the disappearance of the Great Salt Lake. When the dry lake bed blows into the lungs of millions of people the catastrophic health consequences of developments like the Savage Tooele Railroad will become even greater. This may not be part of the environmental assessment, but the whole business plan of the Railroad and the Utah Inland Port Authority is a bust. The Authority was created on the last night of the Utah State Legislative session in 2018 and it is a textbook example of graft. Handing money out to well connected develpers hand over fist. There is no cogent purpose for a rail line through Tooele. The proposed approval of STR’s construction and operation of 11 miles of a new rail line in Tooele County would be a large contributor to a cascade of development consequences having far reaching, undesirable effects, not only there, but throughout the major urban areas of the Wasatch Front where 80% of Utah’s population, over 2.5 million people live. The Draft EA fails to acknowledge that the true purpose of this rail line is to incentivize development of over 35 million square feet of industrial development on land that is currently open space, uplands, playa and wetlands and in some places less than a mile from Great Salt Lake, a critical water body on the verge of ecological collapse. The EA does not take a hard look at the consequences of this, in a valley that is facing a growing environmental crisis with regard to air pollution, and water quality and quantity.","date_kind":"received or sent","url":"https://docketyard.org/d/FD-36616/comment/EI-33138"},{"kind":"comment","date":"2023-10-30","date_printed":"10/30/2023","docket_raw":"FD_36616","record_id":"EI-33135","type":null,"filed_for_raw":null,"deciding_body":null,"summary":null,"attachments":[{"url":"https://dcms-external.s3.amazonaws.com/DCMS_External_PROD/1749152981302/EI%2033135.pdf","label":"EI 33135.pdf","document_sha256":"2eb3652e2796aba64d99831f19c188866e3c543cef44765111a1d7997d712218","media_type":"pdf"}],"also_in":[],"submitter":"Melissa McCoy","organisation":"EPA Region 8","location":"Denver, CO","comment_text":null,"date_kind":"received or sent","url":"https://docketyard.org/d/FD-36616/comment/EI-33135"},{"kind":"comment","date":"2023-10-30","date_printed":"10/30/2023","docket_raw":"FD_36616","record_id":"EO-3849","type":null,"filed_for_raw":null,"deciding_body":null,"summary":null,"attachments":[{"url":"https://dcms-external.s3.amazonaws.com/DCMS_External_PROD/1749153722995/EO%203849.pdf","label":"EO 3849.pdf","document_sha256":"f0326638058c5386516fbf43f7f2cbbbf921250b52857ad002c3bef404edbf0a","media_type":"pdf"}],"also_in":[],"submitter":"Jess Bird","organisation":"Erda City Council","location":null,"comment_text":null,"date_kind":"received or sent","url":"https://docketyard.org/d/FD-36616/comment/EO-3849"},{"kind":"comment","date":"2023-10-29","date_printed":"10/29/2023","docket_raw":"FD_36616","record_id":"EI-33132","type":null,"filed_for_raw":null,"deciding_body":null,"summary":null,"attachments":[{"url":"https://dcms-external.s3.amazonaws.com/DCMS_External_PROD/1749153854858/EI%2033132.pdf","label":"EI 33132.pdf","document_sha256":"ba8bc985ce548920cf6f7c7c5199831f1c4d4131ece74cf26728077f047b02a6","media_type":"pdf"}],"also_in":[],"submitter":"Jess Bird","organisation":"City of Erda","location":"Erda, UT","comment_text":null,"date_kind":"received or sent","url":"https://docketyard.org/d/FD-36616/comment/EI-33132"},{"kind":"comment","date":"2023-10-28","date_printed":"10/28/2023","docket_raw":"FD_36616","record_id":"EI-33133","type":null,"filed_for_raw":null,"deciding_body":null,"summary":null,"attachments":[{"url":"https://dcms-external.s3.amazonaws.com/DCMS_External_PROD/1749154023639/EI%2033133.pdf","label":"EI 33133.pdf","document_sha256":"3adfe6ad9086b56356316c9190a3dec101c4866301f0d766174e42b5eae33dd5","media_type":"pdf"}],"also_in":[],"submitter":"Troy Keller","organisation":"World Trade Center Utah","location":"Salt Lake CIty, UT","comment_text":"See attached letter from World Trade Center Utah Chief Executive Officer, Jonathan Freedman","date_kind":"received or sent","url":"https://docketyard.org/d/FD-36616/comment/EI-33133"},{"kind":"comment","date":"2023-10-27","date_printed":"10/27/2023","docket_raw":"FD_36616","record_id":"EI-34054","type":null,"filed_for_raw":null,"deciding_body":null,"summary":null,"attachments":[{"url":"https://dcms-external.s3.amazonaws.com/DCMS_External_PROD/1749221378750/EI%2034054.pdf","label":"EI 34054.pdf","document_sha256":"2eb3652e2796aba64d99831f19c188866e3c543cef44765111a1d7997d712218","media_type":"pdf"}],"also_in":[],"submitter":"US EPA Region 8","organisation":null,"location":"Denver, CO","comment_text":null,"date_kind":"received or sent","url":"https://docketyard.org/d/FD-36616/comment/EI-34054"},{"kind":"comment","date":"2023-10-26","date_printed":"10/26/2023","docket_raw":"FD_36616","record_id":"EI-33131","type":null,"filed_for_raw":null,"deciding_body":null,"summary":null,"attachments":[{"url":"https://dcms-external.s3.amazonaws.com/DCMS_External_PROD/524/EI%2033131.pdf","label":"EI 33131.pdf","document_sha256":"f22c0244a5890b4045da51f4dd381f3f401049057b4724979c950135037191cc","media_type":"pdf"}],"also_in":[],"submitter":"Salt Lake Chamber","organisation":"Salt Lake Chamber","location":"Salt Lake City, UT","comment_text":null,"date_kind":"received or sent","url":"https://docketyard.org/d/FD-36616/comment/EI-33131"},{"kind":"comment","date":"2023-10-26","date_printed":"10/26/2023","docket_raw":"FD_36616","record_id":"EI-33129","type":null,"filed_for_raw":null,"deciding_body":null,"summary":null,"attachments":[{"url":"https://dcms-external.s3.amazonaws.com/DCMS_External_PROD/1749154094365/EI%2033129.pdf","label":"EI 33129.pdf","document_sha256":"773746ae761ca4ab75569650858af9b429d0d4d1d3adb28ece97cb7938977049","media_type":"pdf"}],"also_in":[],"submitter":"Jesse Wilson","organisation":"Grantsville City","location":"Grantsville, UT","comment_text":null,"date_kind":"received or sent","url":"https://docketyard.org/d/FD-36616/comment/EI-33129"},{"kind":"filing","date":"2023-10-25","date_printed":"10/25/2023","docket_raw":"FD_36616","record_id":"307347","type":"Letter","filed_for_raw":"Honorable Burgess Owens, Honorable Blake D.

A Salt Lake Tribune article reports that the EPA is likely to move Utah’s non-attainment status for ozone pollution from “moderate” to “serious.” It’s worth also noting that the EPA’s standards for ozone do not reflect the threats to public health as outlined in the majority of the medical literature. So we are in violation of a standard already set too low. Ozone is formed when heat and sunlight cause chemical reactions between oxides of nitrogen (NOx) and Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC). Levels are often higher in the summertime because of sun exposure and higher temperatures. Ozone's health hazards are not only related to the lungs and respiratory disease, which are often the only health consequences mentioned in relation to ozone. Like particulate pollution (PM), ozone causes systemic inflammation and body wide organ dysfunction. The list of diseases ozone is connected to is almost as extensive as those connected to PM. Air purifiers can capture much of the PM pollution, but unfortunately, not much of ozone pollution. The state's priorities don’t align with the publics on this issue. Rather than targeting polluters, they attempted to actually get the EPA to waive the standard for Utah. Rather than investing in and prioritizing mass transit, the state is approving highway expansions. We’re also seeing the rapid expansion of the Utah Inland Port across the state. A state putting so many residents at risk with extreme ozone pollution should not be tying its economy to diesel transportation. We saw state legislators pass a fee for residents with electric vehicles, actually de-incentivizing one of the few individual actions available to residents to reduce their own ozone impact.","date_kind":"received or sent","url":"https://docketyard.org/d/FD-36616/comment/EI-33085"},{"kind":"comment","date":"2023-10-11","date_printed":"10/11/2023","docket_raw":"FD_36616","record_id":"EI-33084","type":null,"filed_for_raw":null,"deciding_body":null,"summary":null,"attachments":[],"also_in":[],"submitter":"Katie Pappas","organisation":null,"location":"Salt Lake City, UT","comment_text":"I’m deeply concerned with the way the impacts of this project are being presented.

The projects it enables will not receive the same scrutiny and oversight and they are occurring in an area already facing huge development pressure and water scarcity, The nearby GSL and its wetlands will be further impacted by the development this will inevitably lead to.

The implications and cons by FAR out weigh the pros! In no way shape or form will this be of any advantage to the local communities. In fact, it will only create problems logistically, crossing several roads that are close to the end of the line on this project and you can be assured, no matter how much the Romney’s say it will not be a problem, we can all be certain that there will be problems with trains stopped on major highways and blocking traffic for who knows how long. It will be traversing through wet lands that are extremely precious to our community and environment in general. We cannot afford to lose any more of our precious wet land to frivolous development from developers that have no concern other than to line their pockets at the expense of the environment and the community. There has NOT been one person that I have talked to in the community that thinks this is a good option or will be an advantage to the community. We as a community have seen nothing but crooked, deceitful, ways and intentions from The Romney Group, we have ZERO interest giving up the things discussed by this letter and other letters I have read that have been submitted in opposition of this project, for The Romney Group to further line their pockets at the expense of the local community. The Romney Group are NOT the kind of people that we would choose to have in our community EVEN IF we approved of this project. They have skirted around laws and even gotten laws changed, literally for a 3-month period, so they could proceed with their crooked ways. I could go on with the unethical things they have done just to get to the point that they are at now, I cannot emphasize enough how much we DO NOT want the Romney’s anywhere near this valley!! I know that that is not part of your decision making as the STB but it is an important factor for our community as citizens and we ask that you REJECT/DENY approval this project.","date_kind":"received or sent","url":"https://docketyard.org/d/FD-36616/comment/EI-32699"},{"kind":"comment","date":"2022-11-26","date_printed":"11/26/2022","docket_raw":"FD_36616","record_id":"EI-32698","type":null,"filed_for_raw":null,"deciding_body":null,"summary":null,"attachments":[{"url":"https://dcms-external.s3.amazonaws.com/DCMS_External_PROD/1749156169105/EI%2032698.pdf","label":"EI 32698.pdf","document_sha256":"09a6b41cc1914ae3a24bd7f93241396b756bd4710f657cca075ad5f5004b0dce","media_type":"pdf"}],"also_in":[],"submitter":"Friends of Great Salt Lake","organisation":"Friends of Great Salt Lake","location":"Salt Lake City, UT","comment_text":null,"date_kind":"received or sent","url":"https://docketyard.org/d/FD-36616/comment/EI-32698"},{"kind":"comment","date":"2022-11-14","date_printed":"11/14/2022","docket_raw":"FD_36616","record_id":"EI-34047","type":null,"filed_for_raw":null,"deciding_body":null,"summary":null,"attachments":[{"url":"https://dcms-external.s3.amazonaws.com/DCMS_External_PROD/1749219432827/EI%2034047.pdf","label":"EI 34047.pdf","document_sha256":"fabfd0c652b37e5d50c96b4e83ccc482b6cd5b7c0a8be059bdffc8f6c2946bc8","media_type":"pdf"}],"also_in":[],"submitter":"Thomas Wilcox","organisation":null,"location":"Washington, DC","comment_text":null,"date_kind":"received or sent","url":"https://docketyard.org/d/FD-36616/comment/EI-34047"},{"kind":"comment","date":"2022-11-13","date_printed":"11/13/2022","docket_raw":"FD_36616","record_id":"EI-32685","type":null,"filed_for_raw":null,"deciding_body":null,"summary":null,"attachments":[],"also_in":[],"submitter":"Monica Hilding","organisation":"Utah Environmental Caucus","location":"Salt Lake City, UT","comment_text":"The rail spur is designed to make Romney's warehouse farm more profitable - but would do tremendous harm by among other things going through/next to people's back yards.
