Reduce Barriers to Entry for Passenger Motor Carriers
Regulation No. 57-312 (# 3135)
On February 10, 2016, the Independent Regulatory Review Commission (Commission) received this proposed regulation from the Pennsylvania Public Utility Commission (PUC). This rulemaking amends 52 Pa. Code Chapters 1, 3, 23 and 29. The proposed regulation was published in the February 27, 2016 Pennsylvania Bulletin with a public comment period ending March 28, 2016. The final-form regulation was submitted to the Commission on February 23, 2017.
This regulation deletes provisions that require a new passenger carrier applicant to establish need and streamlines provisions for changing tariffed rates.
We have determined this regulation is consistent with the statutory authority of the PUC (66 Pa.C.S. § 501) and the intention of the General Assembly. Having considered all of the other criteria of the Regulatory Review Act, we find promulgation of this regulation is in the public interest.
By Order of the Commission:
