The Surface Transportation Board received a request from the Chicago Region Environmental and Transportation Efficiency Program to use specific data from the Board's 2018-2019 Masked Carload Waybill Sample. This sample contains confidential data from railroads and shippers. If anyone wants to object to this data usage, they need to file their objections with the Board's Office of Economics within 14 days from the notice date. The rules for releasing this data are detailed in 49 CFR 1244.9.
Simple Explanation
The Surface Transportation Board is considering letting a group use some secret train data from a few years ago, but people have 14 days to say if they think this is a bad idea.
