Application of Laws to BNSF Sample Clauses

Application of Laws to BNSF. The Railroad Infrastructure and associated structures contemplated in the Project are an integral part of BNSF’s interstate rail system. Under the XXX Xxxxxxxxxxx Xxx, 00 X.X.X. § 00000(x), the federal Surface Transportation Board has exclusive jurisdiction over railroad operations and facilities. Although state and local agencies generally do not have jurisdiction to compel BNSF to submit to permitting requirements as a condition of improving BNSF’s interstate facilities, BNSF may voluntarily agree to comply with reasonable state and local environmental requirements in connection with railroad construction projects, however, BNSF’s voluntary cooperation in no way is meant to confer jurisdiction on the state or local regulator but instead may be a by-product of BNSF’s commitment to partnership with the community. BNSF retains its right to object to the application of any state or local law, including environmental or permitting requirements, and nothing in this Master Agreement shall be construed as a waiver of this right or an agreement to comply with such requirements by contract.
