MEMORANDUM <br />TO: Merland Otto <br />f'4G1( <br />FRAM: Dave Hartley <br />RE: Airport and Railroad <br />DATE: March 24, 1987 <br />Councilman Cox suggested that I contact Mr. Pat Kennedy of Burlington <br />Northern Railroad (Mr. Kennedy is a resident of Ramsey who has <br />concerns about the airport's impact on the railroad) and in talking <br />with Mr. Kennedy, he indicated that statutory clearance and practicle <br />clearance may conflict with the operation of the railroad. Mr. <br />Kennedy further suggested that railroads frequently carry hazardous <br />materials including radioactive materials. <br />Mr. Kennedy suggested that we further investigate this matter by <br />contacting Mr. Clyde Stack, Minnesota Division Engineer, Burlington <br />Northern Railroad, 80 - 44th Avenue NE, Minneapolis, Minnesota 55421; <br />phone 782-3213. <br />Merland, you and I talked earlier this year about the Minnesota <br />Department of Transportation's review of the location of the railroad <br />and that Mn/DOT has a railroad expert which has reviewed this matter. <br />Perhaps we should collect the communication which has taken place <br />regarding this and clarify the issue. <br />DRH:pjc <br />
