SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION

Background 

The Motor Carrier Act of 1935 (Pub. 

L. 74–255, 49 Stat. 543) authorized the 

Interstate Commerce Commission (ICC) 

to issue operating authority registration 

to motor carriers, brokers, and freight 

forwarders subject to its jurisdiction and 

to suspend or revoke such registration 

for willful failure to comply with 

applicable statutes and regulations. The 

ICC Termination Act of 1995 (Pub. L. 

104–88, 109 Stat. 803) (ICCTA) 

abolished the ICC and transferred this 

authority to the Secretary of 

Transportation (Secretary). See 49 

U.S.C. 13902 (establishing standards for 

issuing operating authority) and 49 

U.S.C. 13905 (establishing standards 

and procedures for suspending and 

revoking operating authority). 

Additionally, ICCTA section 204 

contains a savings clause which states 

that ‘‘all orders * * * that have been 

issued * * * by the Interstate 

Commerce Commission * * * in the 

performance of any function that is 

transferred by this Act * * * shall 

continue in effect according to their 

terms until modified, terminated, 

superseded, set aside, or revoked.’’ The
