Pennsylvania Public Utility Commission, Bureau
of Investigation and Enforcement v. Ali R, Inc.;
Doc. No. C-2011-2256907; A-00120445
COMPLAINT The Pennsylvania Public Utility Commission (Commission) is a duly constituted agency of The Commonwealth of Pennsylvania empowered to regulate public utilities within the Commonwealth. The Commission has delegated its authority to initiate proceedings, which are prosecutory in nature to the Investigation and Enforcement and other bureaus with enforcement responsibilities. Pursuant to that delegated authority and Section 701 of the Public Utility Code, the Bureau of Investigation and Enforcement hereby represents as follows:
1. That Ali R, Inc., Respondent, maintains a principal place of business at 1100 Spring Garden Street, Philadelphia, PA 19123.
2. That Respondent was issued a Certificate of Public Convenience by this Commission on March 30, 2004, at A-00120445.
3. That Respondent was advised by letter dated May 10, 2005, that its medallion authority was being transferred to the Philadelphia Parking Authority. At that time, Respondent was advised that its taxicab service which had an origin and destination outside of the City of Philadelphia remained subject to the regulatory oversight of the PA PUC. Respondent was also told that, if it chose to retain the authority under the jurisdiction of this Commission, an acceptable tariff must be filed showing the rates for the transportation service. Respondent failed to file an acceptable tariff.
4. That Respondent was advised by letter dated August 31, 2009, that it failed to file a valid tariff with this Commission as required by 52 Pa. Code § 23.11(a). Respondent was given an additional 60 days to file an acceptable tariff. Again, Respondent failed to file an acceptable tariff.
5. That, on March 1, 2010, a Complaint was instituted against Respondent at C-2010-2129819 for failure to file an acceptable tariff. Respondent was given 30 days to file an answer to the complaint or to file a tariff and pay a $250 penalty. No response was received; therefore, the Complaint was adjudicated by Secretarial Letter dated July 8, 2011.
6. That, to date, Respondent has failed to file an acceptable tariff showing the rates for the transportation service provided. This is a violation of 52 Pa. Code § 23.11(a) and § 29.314(b)(6). The Bureau of Investigation and Enforcement's penalty for this violation is cancellation of the Certificate of Public Convenience.
Wherefore, the Bureau of Investigation and Enforcement hereby requests that the Commission cancel Ali R, Inc.'s Certificate of Public Convenience at A-00120445 for the illegal activity described in the complaint and order such other remedy as the Commission may deem to be appropriate.
Respectfully submitted,
