A public hearing is taking place today in Price concerning the Uinta Basin Railway. The public meeting notice shared on the Seven County Infrastructure Coalition website states that the hearing is a Notice for Bonds to be Issued. The Coalition’s Resolution states that it is for the “Issuance of Private Activity Bonds in an Amount Not Exceeding $2.4 Billion Dollars to Finance Rail Surface Transportation and Freight Transfer Facility and Related Improvements.” The publication Trains.com reported this week that the Coalition is seeking funding from the U.S. Department of Transportation private activity bond funding.
