DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION
Surface Transportation Board
[STB No. MC-F-20906]
Capital Motor Lines, et al.--Pooling--Greyhound Lines, Inc.
AGENCY: Surface Transportation Board; DOT.
ACTION: Notice of approval in part of pooling application and
supplemental notice of proposed pooling application.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: Applicants, Capital Motor Lines, d/b/a Capital Trailways, of
Montgomery, AL, and Colonial Trailways, of Mobile, AL, and Greyhound
Lines, Inc., of Dallas, TX, jointly seek approval under 49 U.S.C. 14302
of an operations and revenue pooling agreement to govern their motor
passenger and express transportation services between described points
in Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, and Mississippi. Notice of the
application was published in the Federal Register on April 23, 1997 (62
FR 19853). We have approved the application in part and have
tentatively approved the remainder of the application in a decision
served concurrently with this notice. The original notice did not
completely describe the scope of the pooling agreement, necessitating
this republication to describe more fully the transportation services
governed by applicants' agreement and to provide additional opportunity
for comment as to that part of the application for which approval has
not been finally given.
DATES: Comments are due by October 27, 1997 and, if comments are filed,
applicants' rebuttal is due by November 14, 1997.
ADDRESSES: Send an original and 10 copies of comments referring to STB
No. MC-F-20906 to: Surface Transportation Board, Office of the
Secretary, Case Control Unit, 1925 K Street, N.W., Washington, DC
20423-0001. Also, send one copy of comments to applicants'
representatives: Dennis N. Barnes, 1800 M Street, N.W. (#600N),
Washington, DC 20036-5869; and Fritz R. Kahn, Suite 750 West, 1100 New
York Avenue, N.W., Washington, DC 20005-3934.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Beryl Gordon, (202) 565-1600. [TDD for
the hearing impaired: (202) 565-1695.]
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The prior notice of the application stated
that applicants' operations and revenue pooling agreement governs their
motor passenger and express transportation services between Mobile and
Birmingham, AL, and between Mobile and New Orleans, LA. No comments
were received. However, in addition to the described routes, the
pooling agreement also governs routes between Mobile and Montgomery,
AL, and between Mobile and Jackson, MS, and between Montgomery and
Birmingham, between Montgomery and Tallahassee, FL, between Montgomery
and Meridian, MS, and between Montgomery and Columbus, GA. We have
reviewed the application and have granted final approval for the
proposed pooling of services that were specifically covered by our
prior notice, and have tentatively approved the remainder of the
application in a decision served September 25, 1997. Because the scope
of the application is broader than the notice originally published, our
approval for the broader portion is contingent upon publication of this
notice and the opportunity for public comment. If no comments are
received by the due date, our tentative approval of that part of the
application will become final.
Copies of the application may be obtained free of charge by
contacting applicants' representatives. Copies of our decision
tentatively approving the application may be purchased from DC News &
Data, Inc., 1925 K Street, N.W., Suite 210, Washington, DC 20006.
Telephone: (202) 289-4357. (Assistance for the hearing impaired is
available through TDD services (202) 565-1695.) A copy of this notice
will be served on the Department of Justice, Antitrust Division, 10th
Street & Pennsylvania Avenue, N.W., Washington, DC 20530.
Decided: September 17, 1997.
By the Board, Chairman Morgan and Vice Chairman Owen.
Vernon A. Williams,
Secretary.
