Interstate Commerce Commission

Explanation:

Interstate Commerce Commission was created by the Interstate Commerce Act of 1887. The purpose of the Commission was to regulate railroads and trucking to ensure both use and apply fair rates. The ICC was abolished in 1995 and its functions transferred to the Surface Transportation Board.

All the members of the ICC ( five of them ) were appointed by the President, with the approval of the Senate.

ICC was the first independent agency, outside the federal executive departments and the Executive Office of the President.
