Amendments

Sec. 9. AMENDMENTS. (a) How made. (1) Any change in or addition to a tariff shall be known as an amendment. Amendment of a bound

tariff shall be made by reissue of the tariff or by issue of a supplement as provided in Rule 6. Amendment of a loose-leaf tariff shall be made by

reissue of the tariff or of a page or pages as provided in paragraph (f) of this rule. (See also Rule 10(g) and Rule 17.)

(2) When an amendment is made in a numbered item or other unit in a supplement, such item or other unit shall be published in the

supplement in its entirety as amended. When rates or other provisions are published in numbered items, cancellation shall be made as prescribed

in Rule 9(e). When rates or rules are published in numbered units other than items, the supplement changing the rates or other provisions shall

specifically provide for the cancellation of such matter by reference to the page of the tariff and number of the rule or other unit which it cancels.

Numbered units other than items shall not be given suffix letters when amended. When such a change is made in matter previously published in a

supplement in a numbered unit other than an item, the new supplement shall also give reference by number to the previous supplement.

(3) In any instance where matter is not published in a numbered unit, the changed provision shall be published in the supplement in its

entirety and reference shall be made to the page or pages of the tariff on which the matter to be cancelled is shown clearly indicating the matter which

is cancelled. If the matter to be amended has been amended by a previous supplement, specific cancellation shall be made of the corresponding matter

in the "tariff as amended" and specific reference shall be made by number to the page or pages of the previous supplement containing the matter

to be changed, and, when corresponding matter originally was effective in the tariff, to the page or pages of the tariff formerly containing the matter

amended.

(b) Changes indicated. (1) All tariff publications shall indicate changes made in existing rates, charges, classifications, rules or other

provisions by use of the following uniform symbols in connection with such change:

• or (R) to denote reductions.

◆ or (A) to denote increases.

▲ or (C) to denote changes in wording which result in neither increases nor reductions

in charges.

(2) Explanation of such symbols shall be provided (see Rule 3(e)) in the publication in which they are used, and these symbols shall not

be used for any other purpose.

(3) When a change of the same character is made in all or in substantially all rates in a tariff or supplement, or a page thereof, that fact and

the nature of such change may be indicated in distinctive type at the top of the title page of such issue, or at the top of each page as the case may

be, in the following manner: "All rates in this issue are increases"; or "All rates on this page are reductions"; or there may be added, when

appropriate, "except as otherwise provided in connection with particular rates." In complying with this paragraph a bold-faced dot "•" shall

be used to symbolize a rate or other provision in which no change has been made and the proper symbol shall be used for the purpose of denoting

any other change not indicated by the general statement referred to above.

(c) Omissions from previous tariff. When a tariff or supplement cancelling a previous issue omits points of origin or destination, routes,

ratings, rules or other provisions contained in the previous issue, the new tariff or supplement shall indicate the cancellation in the manner prescribed

in paragraph (a) of this rule, and if such omission effects changes in charges or services that fact shall be indicated by the use of the uniform symbols

prescribed in paragraph (b) of this rule [this section].

(d) Notation; matter (part) established on short notice. Every publication which consists partly but not wholly of matter established upon

less than statutory notice shall show in connection with each change made effective on less than statutory notice a notation that such matter is issued

on____ days' notice under authority of (here give specific reference to the special permission, decision, order, rule, or other authority).

(e) Reissued matter. (1) Matter brought forward without change from a tariff which has not been in effect 30 days, also matter brought

forward without change from one supplement to another, must be designated "Reissued" in distinctive type and must show the original effective date

and the number of the supplement or tariff from which it is reissued, or must be uniformly indicated by the letter 45IAC16-3-

9_01.bmp in a square when reissued from another tariff or from a supplement to another tariff and by numerals, commencing with 1, in

squares when reissued from a prior supplement to the same tariff, printed in distinctive type and shown in a conspicuous manner, and the explanation

thereof must be made in the tariff or supplement in which the symbols are used. Example: "45IAC16-3-9_01.bmp

Reissued from P.S.C.I. No. TR-____ (or Supplement No.____, to P.S.C.I. No. TR-____), effective ____, (date upon which item became

effective in former tariff, or supplement to another tariff)." "[1] Reissued from Supplement No. 1, effective ____," and so on numerically, the

figures of the symbols representing the number of the supplement to the same tariff from which the reissued item is brought forward. If items in a

tariff or supplement are made effective on dates other than the general effective date shown on the title page, reissue of such items may be indicated

in later publications by showing a letter suffix or other symbol in connection with, and as a part of, the letter 45IAC16-3-

9_01.bmp or the numerals in squares as herein authorized. If the reissued items have become effective in a supplement to another tariff,

the P.S.C.I. number of that tariff shall also be given.

(2) The letter 45IAC16-3-9_01.bmp in a square and numerals commencing with 45IAC16-3-9_02.bmp in a square shall not be used as reference marks or symbols for any other purpose in any tariff or

supplement.

(f) Loose-leaf tariffs. (1) Amendment of loose-leaf tariffs shall be made by reprinting the page upon which a change or addition is made,

and such changed page shall be designated as a revised page. For example, "First Revised Page 1 Cancels Original Page 1", or "Second Revised

Page 2 Cancels First Revised Page 2", etc. When a revised title page is issued, the following notation shall be shown in connection with and

immediately under the effective date:

Original tariff effective (here show effective date of the original tariff).

(2) If, on account of expansion of matter on any page, it becomes necessary to add an additional page in order to take care of the additional

matter, such additional page (except when it follows the final page) shall be given the same number with a letter suffix; for example, "Original page

4-A", "Original page 4-B", etc. If it is necessary to change matter on Original Page 4-A, it may be done by issuing First Revised Page 4-A, which

shall indicate the cancellation of Original Page 4-A.

(3) When a revised page is issued which omits rates, rules, or other provisions previously published on the page which it cancels, and such

rates, rules or provisions are published on a different page, the revised page shall make specific reference to the page on which the rates, rules, or

provisions will be found and the page to which reference is so made shall contain the following notation in connection with such rates, rules or other

provisions, etc.:

For (here insert rates, rules, other provisions, etc., as case may be) in effect prior to the effective date hereof, see Page____.

Subsequently revised pages of the same number shall omit this notation insofar as this particular matter is concerned.

(4) If, after a loose-leaf tariff has been filed with the Commission, it is desired to file additional pages at the end of the tariff they shall be

numbered consecutively with the last page of the tariff, and shall be designated as original pages. For example, when the tariff as filed has 150 pages,

page 151 when filed shall not be designated as an "additional" page but shall be designated as "Original Page 151." Such a page may be filed only

for the purpose of adding new provisions which do not change the rates, rules, or provisions on other pages of the tariff.

(5) One of the following methods shall be used in identifying and checking revised pages filed for the purpose of amending loose-leaf

tariffs:

(i) When the original tariff is filed, the page next to the title page shall be designated as "check sheet" which shall show the number

of pages contained in the tariff. When pages of the tariff are revised or when new pages are added, the check sheet shall be correspondingly revised

to include the amended and added pages. The revised check sheet listing the added or revised pages shall accompany such pages when forwarded

to the Commission for filing; or

(ii) Instead of a revised check sheet issued each time revised pages are filed, such revised pages may show, in the lower left-hand

corner, correction numbers running in consecutive order beginning with No. 1, all revised pages issued and filed at the same time being given the

same correction number. If this method is adopted, a permanent check sheet containing in numerical order a list of correction numbers beginning

with No. 1 shall be filed with the original tariff in order to permit the checking of correction numbers on this sheet and thus to maintain a permanent

record by number of all corrections received.

(6) Changes shall be indicated as required by paragraph (b) of this rule [this section]. Items which have been in effect 30 days or

more need not be shown as reissued items on revised pages but may be republished as effective on 30 days' notice. Items which have not been in

effect 30 days when brought forward on revised pages shall be shown as reissued in the manner prescribed in paragraph (e) of this rule [this

section].

(7) When protective covers for loose-leaf tariffs are used, only such information should appear thereon as will remain constant and in use

during the life of the tariffs.

(8) Supplements shall not be issued to loose-leaf tariffs, except for the purposes authorized by Rule 10 and Rule 17.
