Description
STEWART, Justice: The plaintiff, Big K Corporation dba Diamond Transport, a motor common carrier, applied to the Utah Public Service Commission for a certificate of convenience and necessity to transport fluids used in drilling wells for oil over irregular routes between points within the state of Utah, with the exception of Uintah and Duchesne Counties. The PSC denied the application, holding that Big K had failed to show that the service provided by existing carriers was deficient. On this appeal, Big K argues that the Commission misconstrued the "deficiency of service" standard and therefore failed to determine whether Big Ks proposed service would provide a better service to shippers in northern and central Utah than is provided by the existing carriers. We hold that the Commission erred as a matter of law in its construction of the "deficiency of service" standard.
