| Statutory Authority |
The statutory authority for adoption of these rules is set forth in §§ 40-2-108 and 40-10.1-601 through 609, C.R.S., and SB 22-144. |
| Purpose/Objective of Rule |
Through this Decision, the Commission addresses the Application for Rehearing, Reargument, or Reconsideration (RRR), filed by HopSkipDrive, Inc. (HopSkipDrive) on August 26, 2022, pursuant to § 40-6-114, C.R.S. Through the RRR, HopSkipDrive requests the Commission revise or eliminate certain of the temporary rules adopted through Decision No. C22-0486, issued August 17, 2022, that implement Senate Bill (SB) 22-144. After considering the arguments in the Application for RRR, the Commission finds good cause to grant, in part, and deny, in part, the RRR. The Commission upholds, for the most part, the rule language in the current temporary rules, and affirms the legal and policy considerations supporting adoption of these temporary rules as necessary and appropriate minimum standards to ensure the safety of student transportation provided by Transportation Network Companies (TNC). With full consideration of the arguments and concerns raised by HopSkipDrive in its RRR, the Commission finds good cause to adopt certain limited revisions to the current temporary rules, in order to make reasonable adjustments that respond to HopSkipDrive’s practical concerns, while still ensuring minimum safety standards are in place as required by statute. The Commission also makes certain clarifications and adjustments through the order language in this Decision. |

| Comments |
Accordingly, by this Decision, the Commission adopts revised temporary rules that incorporate the limited revisions to the current temporary rules, in response to the RRR. Consistent with the findings in Decision No. C22-0486 adopting the current temporary rules, the Commission continues to find it imperatively necessary to adopt temporary rules, with immediate effect, to implement the provisions of SB 22-144, thereby protecting the public health, welfare, and safety. These temporary rules are effective for 210 days from the adopted date, or until the Commission’s permanent rules implementing SB 22-144 are effective. See § 40-2-108(2), C.R.S. The Commission will, by separate order, open a permanent rulemaking. |
