325A.25 - CERTIFICATES PRIOR TO JANUARY 1, 1998. - Iowa Statutes

325A.25 CERTIFICATES PRIOR TO JANUARY 1, 1998. 1. A certificate or permit, or both, which was issued under former chapter 325 before January 1, 1998, and which authorized a person to transport property in intrastate commerce by motor vehicle as a common carrier or contract carrier, or both, is void. However, to the extent a certificate or permit, or portion of a certificate or permit, authorized a person to transport household goods over irregular routes or passengers in intrastate commerce, this subsection does not apply. 2. A person who owned a certificate or permit, or both, that was a valid certificate or permit, or both, on December 31, 1997, is deemed to have a valid certificate or permit, unless the person's certificate or permit has been suspended, revoked, or transferred to another person as provided by law. A person deemed to have a valid certificate or permit under this subsection is not required to file an application pursuant to section 325A.3 to continue providing intrastate transportation, but rather, upon such person's compliance with the requirements of section 325A.3, subsection 2, the person is deemed to have a valid certificate or permit in force as required pursuant to section 325A.3, subsection 1, authorizing the person to transport property except household goods in intrastate commerce on the public highways, unless the person's certificate or permit is suspended, revoked, or transferred to another person as provided by law. Within a reasonable time after January 1, 1998, the department shall issue certificates or permits to all persons who are deemed to be qualified under this subsection.          Section History: Recent Form 97 Acts, ch 104, §56, 61
