		COMPLAINT AND ORDER SUSPENDING TARIFF REVISIONS
		



 On July 10, 2000, Horluck Transportation Company, Inc., filed with the 
Commission Tariff No. 28 canceling Tariff No. 27.  The stated effective date is 
August 10, 2000.

  It appearing that the filing herein would increase charges for foot ferry 
service rendered by respondent and that the rights and interests of the public 
might be injuriously affected thereby, it is the decision of the Commission to 
enter into further investigation and public hearing or hearings as may be 
necessary concerning such changes and the reasonableness and justness thereof 
and to suspend the operation of the above tariff revision pending such 
investigation, hearing or hearings and decision thereon. 

  In accordance with RCW 80.04.130, the burden of proof to show that such 
increases are just and reasonable shall be upon the respondent.

  IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED:

  1. The operation of the above tariff revision, filed herein July 10, 2000, is 
hereby suspended.

  2. A hearing or hearings, on the Commission's own motion, shall be held at 
such times and places as may be required.

  3. No change or alteration shall be made in the tariff revision filed herein, 
during the period of suspension, unless authorized by the Commission.
  4. Respondent may be required to pay the expenses reasonably attributable and 
allocable to proceedings related to this order to the extent the requirement 
for such payment may be in accordance with the provisions of chapter 80.20 RCW.

  DATED at Olympia, Washington, and effective this 9th day of August, 2000.
