John and Adam,
There was a top management level discussion
on this with Norfolk Southern some time ago before either of you were here.
I think before you (the Fire Department/Code Enforcement) do anything
further, we need to find out what is going on. As we recall, there
is a requirement for City approval in our view. Please do not communicate
with Norfolk Southern further until we have determined the status of this.
Ignacio, we probably need to find out
what is going on.
Thanks
Michele

John,
I forwarded all the information we had
to Farrell to make her office aware. When I sent the e-mail to Farrell
I indicated this may be a citizen issue with Cameron Station. I did
not hear back from either Farrell or her staff on this matter.
According to City records, the property
where this is occurring is railroad property. As such they are not
required to get permits from Code Enforcement. We are working with
the railroad in an advisory capacity to address hydrant installation /
testing, fire extinguisher placement and tours of a similar facility in
Baltimore for the Fire Operations staff.

It is my understanding from Bob Rodriguez's
previous emails that all of this is being conducted on railroad property.
I believe he indicated that there was no avenue for city review.
From my past dealing with railroads, I believe they are governed
by federal regulations that exempt them from local authority. I believe
that Bob has confirmed this with PZ, but I'll ask him to confirm.

Great question!
We heard about it "through the
grapevine" from some Fairfax County firefighters.
My impression is that this entire deal
is somewhat "convoluted" right now.
John might have some additional insight...
Thanks for the quick follow-up!
Adam

Hi Adam and John,
Can either of you tell me how this is
coming forward? We had understood that City land use approval was
required. Has Norfolk Southern come in to request such approval?
Thanks

As we're following-up on subject, it
appears we're going to have some meaningful challenges to address with
respect to fire protection/hazmat preparedness.
Probably the subject of a meeting in
the near future...our present understanding is this facility will open
in April/May 2008.
Just FYI...
Thanks!
Adam
