 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 Bureau of 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 JHG Transportation, LLC Respondent, maintains a mailing address 620 E Clementine Street, Philadelphia, PA 19134-2234.

 2. That on October 28, 2022, by Commission Secretarial letter, Respondent was issued a certificate of public convenience by this Commission authorizing transportation, as a common carrier, by motor vehicle, property, excluding household goods in use, between points in Pennsylvania at PUC utility code no. 8925683 at A-2022-3036362.

 3. That on December 20, 2023, and January 29, 2024, PUC Enforcement Officer Reynaldo Pierluisse attempted to contact the Respondent by phone recording voicemail advising of the safety fitness requirements related to the authority/certificate granted to the Respondent, also emailing the same information on March 1, 2024.
