This document is a Railroad Reimbursement Master Agreement between the State of Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) and Seaboard Coast Line Railroad Company, a corporation organized under the laws of Virginia, with its principal place of business in Jacksonville, Duval County, Florida. The agreement is dated August 7th, 1972 and focuses on collaborative projects involving highway system grade crossing signals and protective devices.

The agreement outlines the terms for installation, adjustment, and maintenance of automatic grade crossing signals and protective devices on state highway projects. The cost structure is detailed in a Schedule of Annual Cost of Automatic Highway Grade Crossing Protective Devices, which categorizes maintenance costs by device complexity: Class I ($650 annually for flashing signals on one track) through Class IV ($1,230 annually for flashing signals and gates on multiple tracks). The Department will reimburse the Railroad Company for costs related to installation, temporary and permanent changes to facilities, and will participate in 50% of maintenance costs for crossing signals. Both parties agree to specific billing procedures, with the Company required to submit detailed cost documentation within 120 days of project completion, and the Department retaining the right to audit these records.
