The Office of Regulatory Staff, by filing this petition, would respectfully show and request of

the Commission:

1. That the Public Service Commission of South Carolina ("the Commission" ) is a state

agency constituted pursuant to the laws of the State of South Carolina with its business offices located

in Columbia, South Carolina; that the Commission is responsible for the regulation of motor vehicle

carriers operating for compensation as set forth in S.C. Code Ann. $58-23-10 et seq. (Supp. 2010); that

the Office of Regulatory Staff ("ORS") is charged with the duty to protect the public interest pursuant

to S.C. Code Ann. $58-4-10, et seq. as enacted by 2004 S.C. Acts 175.

2. That the companies listed in Exhibit A are currently operating as "motor vehicle

carriers" as defined in S.C. Code Ann. $58-23-10(4) in that they are incorporated for the purpose of

owning, controlling, operating or managing motor propelled vehicles, not usually operated on or over

rails, used in the business of transporting persons or property for compensation over improved public

highways in this state.

PSC SCMAIL/DMS

3. That the companies listed in Exhibit A are subject to the jurisdiction of this Commission

pursuant to S.C. Code Ann. $58-23-1010 et seq. (Supp. 2010); further, that these companies have

submitted themselves to the jurisdiction of the Commission by holding a Certificate of Public

Convenience and Necessity as indicated in Exhibit A. See Exhibit A.

4. That the Companies listed in Exhibit A, upon receiving their Certificates of Public

Convenience and Necessity, were found to be fit, willing and able to operate as a motor carrier by the

Commission; that such authority found the companies were "familiar with all statutes and regulations,

including safety regulations, governing for-hire motor carrier operations in South Carolina" and that

they "agree to operate in compliance with these statutes and regulations" 26 S.C. Code Regs. 103-

133.4.a (Supp. 2010).

5. That, "A holder of a certificate A, B, or C with less than twenty vehicles must semi-

annually on or before July first and January first of each year pay to the Commission the following

fees: For vehicles weighing not more than two thousand pounds, seven dollars and fifty cents; and for

vehicles weighing in excess of two thousand pounds, seven dollars and fifty cents for the first two

thousand pounds and two dollars and fifty cents additional for each additional five hundred pounds or

part thereof of weight, except that the total license fee may not exceed fifty dollars per vehicle semi-

annually. "S.C. Code Ann. $58-23-560 (Supp. 2010) (emphasis added).

6. That, pursuant to S.C. Code Ann. $58-4-10 et seq. (Supp. 2010), beginning January 1,

2005, the Office of Regulatory Staff must represent the public interest of South Carolina before the

Commission and has authority to enforce collection of such fees.

7. That the companies listed in Exhibit A failed to pay fees that were due on or before

January 1, 2011 and are therefore currently not in compliance with Commission statutes governing the

regulation of motor carriers.

8. That "the Commission may at any time, after notice and opportunity to be heard,

suspend, revoke, alter, or amend any certificate, if it shall be made to appear that the holder has

willfully violated or refused to observe orders, rules, or regulations prescribed by the Cornrnission,

provisions of the Motor Vehicle Carrier Law, or any other law of this State regulating motor carriers

for hire and applicable to the holder of such certificate, or, if, in the opinion of the Commission, the

motor carrier holding a Certificate of PC&N is not furnishing adequate service or it is no longer

compatible with the public interest to continue said certificate in force, or, if in the opinion of the

Commission, the motor carrier holding a Certificate of FWA is no longer furnishing adequate service,

or said carrier no longer meets the fit, willing, and able criteria. .." 26 S.C. Code Regs. 103-240 (Supp.

2010).

9, That "the Commission may, after a hearing, order the suspension, revocation, alteration,

or amendment of any certificate issued pursuant to Articles 1 through 11 of this chapter, if it is proved

that the holder of the certificate willfully made any misrepresentation of a material fact in obtaining his

certificate or willfully violated or refused to observe the laws of this State touching motor vehicle

carriers or willfully violated any of the terms of his certificate or of the Commission's proper orders,

rules or regulations. But the holder of the certificate has the right of appeal to any court of competent

jurisdiction. The Commission must not be a party to any appeal. " S.C. Code Ann. $58-23-320 (Supp.

2010).

WHEREFORE, the ORS staff prays that the Honorable Commission:

1. Issue an order requiring the carriers listed on Exhibit A to appear before the

Commission, and show cause why any order should not be issued from this Commission revoking the

Certificates of Public Convenience and Necessity previously issued to said carriers;

2. Provide for the opportunity by the carrier to respond to the allegations of this Petition

within thirty (30) days from the date of the receipt of the Order;

3. Schedule and conduct a formal administrative hearing within 45 days to address

disputed issues of fact and law regarding the Certificate pursuant to 26 S.C. Code Regs. 103-240

(Supp. 2010) and S.C. Code Ann. $58-23-320.

4. Enter a final order revoking the Certificates of Public Convenience and Necessity held

by those carriers failing to pay the required fees; and

5. For other appropriate action which the Commission may deem necessary.
