Appendix 6-B: Chronology of Amtrak Service in Wisconsin
Appendix 6-B: Chronology of Amtrak Service in Wisconsin May 1971: As part of its inaugural system, Amtrak operates five daily round trips in the Chicago- Milwaukee corridor over the Milwaukee Road main line. Four of these round trips are trains running exclusively between Chicago’s Union Station and Milwaukee’s Station, with an intermediate stop in Glenview, IL. The fifth round trip is the Chicago-Milwaukee segment of Amtrak’s long-distance train to the West Coast via St. Paul, northern North Dakota (e.g. Minot), northern Montana (e.g. Glacier National Park) and Spokane.

In studying your industry, we found that you would prefer a simplified approach to painting. An approach that would keep your rail fleet in good condition, easy to clean and maintain, simplify your paint selection, minimize painting problems, and above all, give you the greatest value for your painting dollars. Axalta’s approach also addresses your health, safety, and environmental permitting needs. In addition to the systems mentioned in this guide, custom designed systems that meet and/or exceed your local air regulatory agency requirements are also available. Detailed information may be obtained by contacting your authorized Axalta Coating Systems distributor for evaluation. Your authorized Axalta Coating Systems distributor stands ready to work with you in handling all your paint and painting problems.

Chapter 4: Indirect and Cumulative Effects
Chapter 4: Indirect and Cumulative Effects Regulatory Context and Methodology The Council on Environmental Quality’s (CEQ) regulations implementing the procedural provisions of NEPA (40 CFR Part 1500 et seq.) require federal agencies to consider the potential for indirect and cumulative effects from a project. While the other analyses presented in this EA assess the potential direct effects of the Proposed Project within the defined Proposed Project study area, this section addresses the potential for indirect and cumulative effects that could occur later in time and within a larger geographic region. Indirect effects are those that are “caused by an action and are later in time or farther removed in distance but are still reasonably foreseeable” (40 CFR 1508.8). Indirect effects can include the full range of impact types, such as changes in land use, economic vitality, neighborhood character, traffic congestion, air quality, noise, vibration, and water and natural resources. For example, transportation projects that provide new service to a neighborhood may result in indirect effects by inducing new growth in that neighborhood. The analysis of indirect effects focuses on the construction and operational effects of Proposed Project, building on the direct effect analyses discussed in Chapter 3 of this EA. For any potential indirect effects, the analysis used the same methodologies as for analysis of direct effects, although the study areas and timeframes may be larger or longer, respectively. Cumulative impacts result from the incremental consequences of an action when added to other past and reasonably foreseeable future actions (40 CFR 1508.7). The direct effects of an individual action may be negligible but may contribute to a measurable environmental effect when considered cumulatively with other past and/or future projects.
