   1.  J. C. Smith Transport, Ltd., respondent, maintains its principal place of business at 1334 Easton Road, P. O. Box 672, Warrington, Bucks County, Pennsylvania 18976.

   2.  Respondent was issued a certificate of public convenience by this Commission on May 14,1985, at Docket No. A-00105621.

   3.  As of February 1999, respondent had a prior assessment balance due of $246. On June 14, 1999, respondent's account was credited the amount of $246. A revised assessment was issued for $192.

   4.  On September 28, 1999, respondent was sent an initial 1999-2000 assessment of $198. Respondent failed to pay this assessment; therefore, a balance was due in the amount of $390.

   5.  Respondent has outstanding assessments of $390. Furthermore, respondent does not have current evidence of insurance on file with this Commission.

   6.  Respondent failed to file objections to the assessments, pursuant to 66 Pa.C.S.A. § 510(c).

   7.  Respondent, by failing to pay the assessments, violated 66 Pa.C.S.A. § 510(c).

   8.  Respondent, by failing to maintain evidence of insurance on file with this commission, violated 52 Pa. Code §§ 32.2 and 32.11.

   Wherefore, the Bureau of Transportation and Safety Prosecutory Staff hereby requests that the Commission cancel the certificate of public convenience issued to respondent, direct the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation to revoke the motor vehicle registration(s) issued to respondent, notify the Pennsylvania Department of Revenue that respondent's certificate of public convenience have been revoked and notify respondent's insurance carrier that respondent's certificate of public convenience has been revoked.
