Pennsylvania Public Utility Commission, Bureau of Transportation and Safety v. Tyler Sanabria, t/a TST Trucking; Doc. No. C-2008-2024302

COMPLAINT

   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 Transportation and Safety and other bureaus with enforcement responsibilities. Pursuant to that delegated authority and Section 701 of the Public Utility Code, the Bureau of Transportation and Safety Prosecutory Staff hereby represents as follows:

   1.  That Tyler Sanabria, t/a TST Trucking, respondent, maintains his principal place of business at 38 Ardsley Drive, Dover, PA 19004.

   2.  That respondent was issued a certificate of public convenience by this Commission on June 29, 2007, for property authority at Application Docket No. A-00123890.

   3.  That on September 3, 2007, Enforcement Officer John Theodosiades visited respondent's place of business at 277 Wembly Road, Upper Darby, and left a note for respondent to contact him by telephone in reference to scheduling his Safety Fitness Review for his trucking company. Officer Theodosiades also left Mr. Sanabria an approved informational packet. On September 8, 2007, Officer Theodosiades contacted respondent by telephone to ascertain if respondent had received the informational packet that was left in his door and offer Mr. Sanabria his assistance. On September 25, 2007, Officer Theodosiades informed the respondent that his Safety Fitness Review was scheduled for October 31, 2007. On October 31, 2007, Officer Theodosiades arrived at respondent's place of business and no one responded to his knocking on the door. Officer Theodosiades left a note which included his telephone number and requested Mr. Sanabria to call him. Failing to receive any communication from respondent, Officer Theodosiades attempted to contact Mr. Sanabria 20 times by telephone with no success. A letter dated December 3, 2007, was sent to Mr. Sanabria, informing him of an appointment on December 19, 2007, to conduct the Safety Fitness Review. On December 19, 2007, Officer Theodosiades went to respondent's place of business and knocked on the door. Again, no one answered the door. Officer Theodosiades waited one hour and knocked on the respondent's door, again no response.

   4.  That to date, respondent has failed to submit his company to a Safety Fitness Review. A satisfactory fitness rating must be achieved by respondent in order to maintain a certificate of public convenience to operate as a common carrier of property between points in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.

   5.  That respondent, by failing to obey and comply with a Commission Secretarial letter directing respondent to submit his company to a safety fitness review, violated 66 Pa.C.S. § 501(c), and, for failure to maintain adequate, efficient and safe service and facilities, violated 66 Pa.C.S. § 1501.

   Wherefore, the Bureau of Transportation and Safety Prosecutory Staff hereby requests that the Commission revoke Tyler Sanabria, t/a TST Trucking's certificate of public convenience at A-00123890.

Respectfully submitted,
 
Wendy J. Keezel, Chief of Enforcement
