325A.7A Tariffs — approval by department.
1. Transportation prohibited. A motor carrier of household goods shall not undertake to perform any service for, engage in, or participate in the transportation of personal effects or property between points within this state until the motor carrier’s tariff has been filed, posted, and approved by the department.
2. Change in tariff. Unless the department orders otherwise, a motor carrier of household goods shall give thirty days’ notice to the department and to the public, as provided by rules adopted by the department, prior to making a change in a tariff.
3. Changes without notice. The department, for good cause shown, may allow changes in a tariff without the thirty days’ notice required in subsection 2 by issuing an order specifying the changes to be made and the time they shall take effect.
4. Power to revise tariff. Any time a tariff is filed with the department, the department may hold a hearing for the purpose of determining that the tariff is just, reasonable, and nondiscriminating. The hearing shall be conducted by the director or the director’s designee.
5. Suspension of tariff. Pending the hearing and the decision of the department, the tariff shall not be put into effect; however, this period of suspension of the tariff shall not exceed one hundred twenty days beyond the time the tariff would otherwise have been effective after filing and thirty days’ notice.
6. Decision. Following the hearing, the department shall establish the tariff changes proposed by the motor carrier in whole or in part, or establish other changes the department determines to be just, reasonable, and nondiscriminating.
