The UTC sets a prehearing conference in the request to close the Hickox Road grade crossing.

On April 11, 2007, BNSF filed with the UTC a petition to close the portion of Hickox road that crosses BNSF's railroad tracks in Mt. Vernon. The Commission held a prehearing conference on Friday, July 13, 2007, at 10:00 a.m., at the UTC's offices in Olympia, WA. The purpose of the prehearing conference was to discuss scheduling and procedural matters. (Docket 070696, see "Documents" at the bottom of this page for more information.)

At the July 13 prehearing conference the parties agreed upon a basic framework for a procedural schedule. The Commission adopts the procedural schedule in Order 01 as Appendix B, subject to further refinements and revisions at a Second Prehearing (Status) Conference on Wed., August 1, 2007, at 9:30 a.m.

Note: There will not be an opportunity for public comment at the July 13 prehearing conference. A public comment hearing will be scheduled and held at a later part of this proceeding. Please see the June 13, 2007, "Fact Sheet" for more information.
