Since January 2009, shippers whose trains operate over the Joint Line and over BNSF’s Black Hills subdivision have been receiving monthly reports on trains that exceed the coal dust emission levels specified in Items 100 and 101 of BNSF’s Price List 6041-B. In addition, BNSF conducts random field audits of the loading profiles of coal cars and provides information to shippers and mines on cars that have a loading profile that deviates from the profile described in BNSF’s coal dust emission standards.
