Members of the group Citizens Acting For Rail Safety filed a lawsuit against BNSF in March, claiming the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources gave BNSF a wetland permit without a thorough environmental review.

The new rates are part of a plan by the railroad owned by Berkshire Hathaway Inc. to push older cars off the tracks as regulators scrutinize the industry over a series of high-profile explosions.
