Check the appropriate box below if the Form 8-K filing is intended to simultaneously satisfy the filing obligation of the registrant under any of the following provisions:







Green Plains Partners LP, the partnership, is filing this current report on Form 8-K to update certain items in the partnership's annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015, or the 2015 annual report. On January 1, 2016, the partnership acquired the ethanol storage and leased railcar assets, or acquired assets, located in Hereford, Texas and Hopewell, Virginia from Green Plains Inc. in a transfer between entities under common control. Transfers of net assets between entities under common control are accounted for as if the transfer occurred since the common control existed, and prior periods are recast to provide comparative information. 

The following items of the 2015 annual report are being recast to reflect the transaction for the period during which common control existed, or since October 23, 2015, and November 12, 2015, for the Hopewell and Hereford acquired assets, respectively:



These items replace the same items filed in the 2015 annual report as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 18, 2016. There have been no revisions or updates to any other sections of the 2015 annual report.

The information in this current report on Form 8-K should be read in conjunction with the other information included (but not replaced as described above) in the 2015 annual report. More current information is contained in the partnership's quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2016, and the partnership's other filings with the SEC.

In addition, we have included the amendment to the railcar transportation services agreement, effective September 1, 2015, as Exhibit 10.1 to this current report on form 8-K.
