CASE NO. 31-6101-9701
NOTICE OF PROPOSED
RULEMAKING
By this notice we propose to promulgate new and amend the Commission’s existing Motor Carrier Rules (IDAPA 31.61.01.000). Generally, we propose to eliminate those rules pertaining to rates, routes and services provided by all motor carriers in light of federal preemption in this area. We also propose to remove all rules and portions of rules pertaining to safety fitness ratings recently suspended by the Commission in light of a federal court ruling that the rating methodology implemented by the Federal Highway Administration was unlawfully implemented. We also propose several “housekeeping” changes to eliminate redundancies and streamline the rules.
Two appendices are attached to this Notice of Proposed Rulemaking. Appendix A is a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking suitable for transmission to the administrative rules coordinator. Appendix B is the proposed rules in legislative format showing the proposed amendments to the rules. As explained in Appendix A, the comment deadline for this Notice of Proposed Rulemaking is August 27, 1997.
NOTICE OF PROPOSED RULEMAKING
The Idaho Public Utilities Commission hereby gives notice of its proposal to promulgate new and amend the Commission’s existing Motor Carrier Rules, IDAPA 31.61.01.000 pursuant to Idaho Code § 61-807. The proposed new rules and amendments are contained in Appendix B.
Proposed by the Idaho Public Utilities Commission at Boise, Idaho this day of June 1997.
