CSX SELECT SITE PROGRAM
Freight Rail Handbook
Certified Megasites Certified megasites are sites within the CSX network that are ideal for large-scale development. In many cases, they are sponsored by CSX, certified by McCallum Sweeney Consulting and administered by various state departments of commerce or private developers. The sites must meet stringent requirements before receiving certification. Property size, access to CSX rail service, proximity to an interstate highway, labor availability, natural gas, wastewater, and water infrastructures are all part of the minimum criteria necessary for a property to be considered as a megasite. Additionally, each site undergoes a thorough environmental audit and geo-technical assessment.
