622.190. Division's authority to establish system of accounts — access to accounts. — 1. The division may, whenever it deems advisable, establish a system of accounts to be used by railroad and street railroad corporations or other common carriers which are subject to its supervision, or may classify the said corporations and other carriers and prescribe a system of accounts for each class, and may prescribe the manner in which such accounts shall be kept. It may also, in its discretion, prescribe the forms of accounts, records and memoranda to be kept by such corporations, including the accounts, records and memoranda of the movement of traffic, as well as the receipts and expenditures of moneys. Notice of alterations by the division in the required method or form of keeping a system of accounts shall be given to such persons or corporations by the division at least six months before the same are to take effect. The system of accounts established by the division and the forms of accounts, records and memoranda prescribed by it as provided above shall conform in the case of railroad corporations as nearly as may be to those from time to time established and prescribed by the Interstate Commerce Commission under the provisions of the act of Congress entitled "An Act to Regulate Commerce", approved February 4, 1887, and the acts amendatory thereof or supplementary thereto.
2. The division shall at all times have access to all accounts, records and memoranda kept by railroad and street railroad corporations or other common carriers and may designate any of its officers or employees, who shall thereupon have authority under the order of the division to inspect and examine any and all accounts, records and memoranda kept by such corporations.
