Union Pacific Railroad Company v. Public

TUCKETT, District Judge. These cases are before the Court to review the orders of the Public Service Commission issued in
each case. The cases were consolidated for argument and the Court's opinion will apply to all three cases. W. S. Hatch Company, a corporation, the plaintiff in Case No. 8359, on January 10, 1951, filed an application with the Commission
for a certificate of convenience and necessity authorizing it to operate as a common carrier by motor vehicle for the transportation
of acid in bulk from and to all points and places within the State of Utah. This application was granted as to Salt Lake County
and some adjoining territory and denied as to the balance of the State. On August 19, 1953, W. S. Hatch Company again applied
for this authority to all points and places within the State. After hearing the Commission issued another report and order
granting the application in part and denying it in part. Thereafter the Commission issued another report and order granting
the application in part and denying it in part.
