NAC706.239. Provision of special services.

     1. Special services may be provided only by a common motor carrier authorized to provide such service, in connection with a special event or for a specific purpose as approved by the Authority, for which the carrier or a person on his or her behalf intends to provide transportation on the basis of individual fares. The rate for special services may include charges for items in addition to transportation, such as fees for admission, but the portion attributable to transportation must be specifically designated as such in the filed tariff.

     2. A common motor carrier authorized to provide special services shall file with the Authority a tariff showing the per capita fares, minimum number of persons required for special services and the particular geographical points of origin and destination.

     3. A common motor carrier offering special services shall not render the service unless a request for approval has been filed with the Authority at least 10 working days before the services are to be offered stating:

     (a) The point or points of origin;

     (b) The destination or destinations;

     (c) The special event or specific purpose for which the service is to be provided; and

     (d) The dates when the service is proposed to be rendered.

Ê The Chair or his or her designee shall approve or disapprove the request for approval within 10 working days after receiving the request. If the Chair or his or her designee does not approve or disapprove the request for approval within 10 working days after receiving it, the request shall be deemed to be approved. One copy of the request for approval must be carried in the vehicle making the trip, and one copy must be retained in the carrier’s files for at least 3 years.

     4. A carrier may not operate over the same route or to the same points so frequently as to constitute a regular or scheduled service, unless otherwise specified by the Authority.

     5. A common motor carrier authorized to provide special services shall not charter equipment to provide those services. The common motor carrier shall ensure that the use of his or her vehicles complies with the provisions of this chapter.
