New York State Department of Public Service Motor Carrier Bureau Motor Truck Docket Books

This series consists of "docket books" which summarize proceedings for each case pertaining to certification of vendors to engage in motor transportation of consumer goods to the point of sale. Each application case is assigned a dedicated page in the volume. There is also a series of pages at the beginning of each volume used as an alphabetical name register (alpha by vendor name), permitting cross-referencing to each case by its page number. The information recorded for each vendor and case includes dates when the vendor appeared before the Public Service Commission and a brief summary of each hearing. Hearings may concern an application for various reasons, such as an initial filing with the Public Service Commission for a certificate or permit as a contracted or common carrier of property by motor vehicle delivery vehicle; approval or denial of the application; renewal of existing certification; or other reason. Entries are handwritten.
