§ 23-3-513 - Replacement of navigable water crossing.
(a) In each instance where a river crossing proprietor may desire to replace a navigable water crossing, it shall file with the Arkansas Public Service Commission a proper petition pursuant to § 23-3-504.
(b) (1) Proceedings upon the petition shall be conducted under §§ 23-3-506, 23-3-507, and 23-3-510, subject to appeal as provided in §§ 23-3-511 and 23-3-512.
