Section 16:51-3.13 - Filing that proposes a change of name

(a) Filings solely for the purpose of changing the name of an existing autobus utility shall provide the following information at least 20 days prior to the change of name:

1. A statement as to which of petitioner's operations will assume the new name; and

2.A copy of the amendment changing the corporate name, if applicable, filed pursuant to the provisions of the New Jersey Business Corporation Act, which copy displays the registration stamp of the New Jersey Department of the Treasury.

(b) In the event that the name to be assumed by the autobus utility is so similar to a name used by another autobus utility as to create confusion in the public, prior to the expiration of the 20-day period, the Division will withhold approval of the change of name pending the filing of a petition.

(c) In the event that no objection from the Division is received within 20 days after notification of the proposed name change, the autobus utility shall, upon filing the notification with the municipal and county clerks in the areas in which pickup and drop-off service is provided, assume the new name.

(d) In the event that the change of name is incidental to a change in ownership or control, a change in business structure, or any other change that may affect operations, the autobus utility must request the name change by petition.
