What 'authority revoked' means

Involuntary revocation for lapsed insurance or BOC-3, voluntary revocation, and reinstatement.

What the public record shows

FMCSA revokes operating authority involuntarily when required insurance or the BOC-3 process-agent designation is not on file after notice, and on request (voluntary revocation).
A revoked carrier may not operate for hire; a reinstatement restores the authority and appears as its own event with a date.
The Trust Receipt lists revocation, suspension and reinstatement events in the last 24 months with their L&I dates.

Questions

Is a reinstated carrier the same as a new one?

No; the docket keeps its history. The receipt shows the reinstatement date and treats changes in the following 90 days as post-approval changes.
