SUMMARY: The Commission has received seven separate applications from 
motor carrier rate bureaus to expand the territorial scope of their 
collective ratemaking activities.1 The rate bureaus all seek to 
expand from their present regional ratemaking authority to nationwide 
authority. These requests raise common issues, and we will consolidate 
them. We seek public comments on them, which may be filed on any 
individual amendment or collectively as to all the amendments. If we 
receive additional applications, we anticipate consolidating them with 
this proceeding. By this notice we are vacating the schedules published 
at 59 FR 18416 (April 18, 1994) and 59 FR 22683 (May 2, 1994) for 
filing public comments on EC-MAC Motor Carriers Service Association, 
Inc.'s and Middlewest Motor Freight Bureau, Inc.'s applications,
