Historical And Revision Notes

Revised Source (U.S. Code) Source (Statutes at Large) Section

524 49:1655(f)(2). Oct. 15, 1966, Pub. L. 89-670, Sec. 6(f)(2), 80 Stat. 940.

The section is included because 49:1655(f)(2) gave the same administrative powers exercised by the Interstate Commerce Commission under certain sections of title 49 to the Secretary of Transportation to carry out duties transferred to the Secretary by 49:1655(e). See the revision notes for section 501 of the revised title for an explanation of the transfer under 49:1655(f)(2). The powers of the Commission have been codified in subtitle IV of the revised title.

The comparable provisions of title 49 that are represented by the section may be found as follows: Section 49 U.S. Code Revised 524 Section

322(c) (related to evasion of 11906 regulation).

See the revision notes for the revised section for an explanation of changes made in the text. Changes not accounted for in those revision notes are as follows: The section does not apply to motor carriers of migrant workers and motor private carriers because 49:322(c) (related to evasion of regulation) only applies to motor carriers and 49:304(a)(3) and (3a) do not apply 49:322(c) (related to evasion of regulation) to motor carriers of migrant workers and motor private carriers.
