Chapter 245 - Railroads and Railways
Section 13b-237 - Procedure for disposal of rail or other track material.
The Commissioner of Transportation shall not, directly or indirectly, sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of any rail or other track material, unless the commissioner has offered such rail or other track material to freight railroad companies for upgrading state-owned rights-of-way. Said commissioner shall offer any remaining rail or other track material, if any, to freight railroad companies for upgrading other rail lines located within the state. If any freight railroad company accepts such offer, the Department of Transportation shall transfer such rail or other track material to the recipient's designated material site within the state at a charge to such recipient that, in the case of state-owned rights-of-way does not exceed the value, as scrap, of the materials replaced by the material transferred by said department, and, in the case of non-state-owned rights-of-way, does not exceed the value, as scrap, of the materials transferred by said department.
