514 LAMS OF MARYLAND Ch. 13
DISCRETION OF THE COMMISSION, BE AMENDED OR REVOKED, IN
WHOLE OR IN PART, OR MAY, UPON COMPLAINT, OR ON THE
COMMISSION'S OWN INITIATIVE, AFTER NOTICE AND HEARING, BE
SUSPENDED, CHANGED, OR REVOKED, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, FOR
WILFUL FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH ANY LAWFUL ORDER, PULE, OR
REGULATION OF THE COMMISSION, OR WITH ANY TERM,
CONDITION, OR LIMITATION OF SUCH CERTIFICATE; PROVIDED,
HOWEVER, THAT NO CERTIFICATE SHALL BE REVOKED (EXCEPT
APPLICATION OF THE HOLDER) UNLESS THE HOLDER THEREOF
WILFULLY FAILS TO COMPLY, WITHIN A REASONABLE TIME, NOT
LESS THAN 30 DAYS, TO BE FIXED BY THE COMMISSION, WITH A
LAWFUL ORDER OF THE COMMISSION COMMANDING OBEDIENCE TO
THE RULES OR REGULATIONS OR ORDERS OF THE COMMISSION, OR
TO THE TERM, CONDITION, OR LIMITATION OF SUCH CERTIFICATE
FOUND BY THE COMMISSION TO HAVE BEEN VIOLATED BY SUCH
HOLDER. NO CERTIFICATE SHALL BE ISSUED TO AN APPLICANT
PROPOSING TO OPERATE OVER THE ROUTES OF ANY HOLDER OF A
CERTIFICATE UNLESS AND UNTIL IT SHALL BE PROVED TO THE
SATISFACTION OF THE COMMISSION, AFTER HEARING UPON
REASONABLE NOTICE, THAT THE SERVICE RENDERED BY SUCH
CERTIFICATE HOLDER, OVER SUCH ROUTE, IS INADEQUATE TO THE
REQUIREMENTS OF THE PUBLIC CONVENIENCE AND NECESSITY; AND
PROVIDED, FURTHER, IF THE COMMISSION SHALL BE OF THE
OPINION THAT THE SERVICE RENDERED BY SUCH CERTIFICATE
HOLDER OVER SUCH ROUTE IS IN ANY RESPECT INADEQUATE TO
THE REQUIREMENTS OF THE PUBLIC CONVENIENCE AND NECESSITY,
SUCH CERTIFICATE HOLDER SHALL BE GIVEN REASONABLE TIME
AND OPPORTUNITY TO REMEDY SUCH INADEQUACY BEFORE ANY
CERTIFICATE SHALL BE GRANTED TO AN APPLICANT PROPOSING TO
OPERATE OVER SUCH ROUTE.
(H) TRANSFER OF CERTIFICATE.
NO CERTIFICATE UNDER THIS SECTION MAY BE TRANSFERRED
UNLESS SUCH TRANSFER IS APPROVED BY THE COMMISSION AS
BEING CONSISTENT WITH THE PUBLIC INTEREST.
(I) ABANDONMENT OR SUSPENSION OF ROUTE OR SERVICE.
NO CARRIES SHALL ABANDON ANY ROUTE SPECIFIED IN A
CERTIFICATE ISSUED TO SUCH CARRIER UNDER THIS SECTION,
UNLESS SUCH CARRIES IS AUTHORIZED TO DO SO BY AN ORDER
ISSUED BY THE COMMISSION. THE COMMISSION SHALL ISSUE
SUCH ORDER, IF UPON APPLICATION BY SUCH CARRIER, AND
AFTER NOTICE AND OPPORTUNITY FOR REARING, IT FINDS THAT
THE ABANDONMENT OF SUCH ROUTE IS CONSISTENT WITH THE
PUBLIC INTEREST. THE COMMISSION, BY REGULATIONS OR
OTHERWISE, MAY AUTHORIZE SUCH TEMPORARY SUSPENSIONS OF
ROUTES AS MAY BE CONSISTENT WITH THE PUBLIC INTEREST.
THE FACT THAT A CARRIER IS OPERATING A ROUTE OR
FURNISHING A SERVICE AT A LOSS SHALL NOT, OF ITSELF,
DETERMINE THE QUESTION OF WHETHER ABANDONMENT OF THE
ROUTE OR SERVICE OVER THE ROUTE IS CONSISTENT WITH THE
PUBLIC INTEREST AS LONG AS THE CARRIER EARNS A REASONABLE
RETURN.
