Montana HB518 revises public utilities and carriers laws, focusing on hearings for motor carrier certificates.
Montana HB518 amends the process for hearings on applications for motor carrier certificates. It mandates that the commission must notify interested parties when an application is filed. If a protest or hearing request is received, a hearing must be scheduled within 60 days. Protests are limited to the applicant's ability to meet specific requirements. The act also specifies that certain parties, including the Department of Transportation and local governing boards, are considered interested parties in the proceedings. The changes in the law take effect immediately upon passage and approval.
