The Commission has delegated its authority to initiate proceedings which are prosecutory in nature to the Bureau of Transportation and Safety and other Bureaus with enforcement responsibilities. Pursuant to that delegated authority and Section 701 of the Public Utility Code, the Bureau of Transportation and Safety Prosecutory Staff hereby represents as follows:

 1. That Richard Grickis, t/a Richard Grickis, Mobile Home, Respondent, maintains his principal place of business at 491 Route 61 South, Schuylkill Haven, PA 17972-9725.

 3. That on August 25, 2010, Respondent received an initial assessment of $104.00. Respondent failed to pay this assessment; therefore, a balance is due in the amount of $104.00.

 5. That Respondent failed to file objections to the assessment, pursuant to 66 Pa.C.S. § 510(c).
