(a) The total number of power units used by
the applicant for the transportation of all the applicant's shipments during
the preceding year;
(b) The
applicant's total mileage for the transportation of all his or her shipments in
this State during the preceding year divided by the applicant's total mileage
for the transportation of all his or her shipments in all states and countries
during the preceding year; and
(c)
If the applicant's shipments of hazardous material are by:
(1) Full loads only, the total number of the
applicant's shipments of hazardous material in this State during the preceding
year divided by the total number of all his or her shipments in this State
during the preceding year;
(2)
Partial loads only, the total weight of the applicant's shipments containing
hazardous material in this State during the preceding year divided by the total
weight of all his or her shipments in this State during the preceding year,
calculated exactly or to the number midway between the two deciles closest to
the person's estimate of that amount; or
(3) Both full and partial loads, the sum
obtained by adding:
(I) The percentage of his
or her total shipments of hazardous material in this State during the preceding
year which were by full loads times the number obtained by performing the
calculation set forth in subparagraph (1) as if all his or her shipments of
hazardous material in this State during the preceding year were by full loads;
and
(II) The percentage of the
applicant's total shipments of hazardous material in this State during the
preceding year which were by partial loads times the number obtained by
performing the calculation set forth in subparagraph (2) as if all his or her
shipments of hazardous material in this State during the preceding year were by

deciles closest to the person's estimate of that amount.

investigation will begin. Any unexpended portion of the fee will be refunded to
the applicant, regardless of the outcome of the investigation.
