Article 6.5 - Carrier Identification Numbers
Section 1235.5 - Retention of Records by the Department
Universal Citation: 13 CA Code of Regs 1235.5
Current through Register 2024 Notice Reg. No. 38, September 20, 2024
(a) Deletion of CA Numbers. A CA number and its associated records will be deleted from the department's automated record system for any of the following reasons:
(1)
A number was assigned in error to a person who was not subject to Section
34507.5 of the Vehicle Code at the time the number was assigned.
(2) A second or subsequent number was
assigned to the same person in error. In this circumstance, any carrier or
terminal information associated with a superfluous CA number will be
transferred to the person's correct CA number.
(A) The department may, at its discretion,
permit a person to choose which CA number to keep and which to delete. This
permission will not be extended if either of the following conditions exist:
(i) The department is aware the person is
currently the subject of any legal proceeding in which any CA number associated
with that person appears, or may appear, on any exhibit in the
proceeding.
(ii) The person is
subject to follow-up inspections after that person's failure to attain a
satisfactory compliance rating during any regulatory inspection performed by
the department.
(3) The department has determined that the
person no longer exists as a legal entity or has ceased to be subject to
Section 34507.5 of the Vehicle Code, and sufficient time has passed that the
department is unlikely to need to refer to the record associated with that CA
number, and legal action against that person, as a motor carrier or a motor
carrier of property, is not pending or contemplated by the department, and is
not known to the department to be pending or contemplated by the Department of
Motor Vehicles, the Public Utilities Commission, or the Federal Motor Carrier
Safety Administration.
(4) The
department will coordinate with the Department of Motor Vehicles to ensure that
deletion of a CA number does not cause the inadvertent invalidation of a motor
carrier of property permit, and if the carrier possesses such a permit, to
arrange with the Department of Motor Vehicles for corresponding correction of
relevant information associated with the permit in that agency's records, such
as correction of the CA number associated with it.
