Contested case hearing starts Monday for Imperial Oil/ExxonMobil U.S. 12 shipments
BOISE - A contested case hearing starts on Monday (April 25) at 9 a.m. at Idaho Transportation Department headquarters regarding a proposal to allow Imperial Oil/ExxonMobil to ship oversized equipment on U.S. 12.
Retired State Court District Judge Duff McKee will preside as the hearing officer.
The hearing will allow opponents of Imperial Oil/ExxonMobil's plan to ship oversized loads on U.S. 12 from Lewiston to the Montana state line to present evidence and testimony. The department uses hearing officers to settle a variety of administrative claims, ranging from drivers license suspensions and bidding, to construction and highway access claims.
McKee is a retired state court district judge with 45 years of law experience. Although he continues to serve part time as a senior judge, McKee is now in private practice offering dispute-resolution services.
The hearing will be in the auditorium at the transportation department, 3311 W. State Street. It is scheduled to last a week. Parking is available on the west side of the building. Technical limitations prevent the hearing from being shown by videoconference.
