(a) This section applies whenever there is
filed with the department by the contract carrier any schedule or
contract stating a charge for a new service or a reduced charge directly,
or by means of any rule or practice, for the transportation of passengers
or household goods in intrastate commerce.
(b) Upon complaint of interested parties or upon its own initiative
at once and, if it so orders, without answer or other formal pleading by
the interested party, but upon reasonable notice, the department may
enter upon a hearing concerning the lawfulness of the charge, rule, or
practice. Pending the hearing and the decision on the complaint, the
department, by filing with the schedule and delivering to the carrier
affected thereby a statement in writing of its reasons for the suspension,
may from time to time suspend the operation of the schedule and defer
the use of the charge, rule, regulation, or practice, but not for a longer
period than one hundred eighty (180) days beyond the time when it
would otherwise go into effect. After hearing, whether completed
before or after the charge, or rule or practice goes into effect, the
department may make the order with reference thereto as would be
proper in a proceeding instituted after it had become effective.
(c) If the proceeding has not been concluded and an order made
within the period of suspension, the proposed change in any charge or
rule, regulation, or practice goes into effect at the end of the period.
