NAC706.1385. Form and format for tariffs and supplements.

     1. Tariffs or supplements must be in loose-leaf form on good quality paper which is 8 1/2 by 11 inches, typed or reproduced by any clear, legible and durable process. If the tariff is also filed with the Surface Transportation Board and the Surface Transportation Board allows a size or format different from that specified by the Authority, that different size will be accepted by the Authority.

     2. The format must be as follows:

     (a) On each page, a 1-inch margin must be provided on the left-hand or binding edge and a 1/2-inch margin provided on the right-hand side. No printing or writing may appear in these margins.

     (b) Each page must be numbered in the upper left-hand corner beginning with “Original Title Page, Original Page 1, Original Page 2,” and so forth.

     (c) Each page (Form 24C*), except the title page, must have:

          (1) In the upper right-hand corner, the number of the Authority assigned to that tariff by the motor carrier, issuing agency or agent.

          (2) In the center at the top, the name of the carrier, issuing agency or agent and the name of the business, if any. The name, description and number of the tariff must be placed below the names.

          (3) In the lower left-hand corner, between the text on the page and the statement of the issuing officer, the word “Issued” and on the same line in the lower right-hand corner, the word “Effective.”

          (4) On the bottom of the page, in the center, below “Issued” and “Effective,” the words “Issued by” followed by the name of the issuing officer, his or her address, city, state and zip code number.

     (d) The title page (Form 24A*) must have:

          (1) In the upper right-hand corner, the number of the Authority assigned to that tariff by the motor carrier, issuing agency or agent.

          (2) In the center of the page, the name of the carrier, issuing agency or agent and the name of the business, if any. The name, description and number of the tariff must be placed below the names.

          (3) In the lower left-hand corner, the word “Issued” and, immediately below, the word “Effective.” The lower right-hand corner must be left blank for use by the Authority.

          (4) On the bottom of the page, in the center, on the same line as “Issued,” the words “Issued by,” followed by the name of the issuing officer, his or her address, city, state and zip code number.

     (e) Each new (Form 24D*) or revised page filed must have the date of issue by the name of the motor carrier inserted after the title “Issued.” The space after “Effective” may be left blank on strictly intrastate tariffs in the State of Nevada. Any desired effective date in such a case must be included in the applicant’s transmittal letter. An effective date must be inserted in the space after “Effective” in joint tariffs filed with the Authority and the Surface Transportation Board.

     (f) If a new or revised page is filed cancelling a page (Form 24B*), the new page must read:

1st revised page........................ (fill in page number)

                               cancels

Original page............................ (fill in page number)

A revised page only cancels one page and does not cancel any other page.

     (g) Except as otherwise provided in NAC 706.3983, six copies of regulations or rates, or both, must be filed with the Authority at least 30 days before becoming effective.

     (h) Any changes on a page which has been filed must be clearly marked with one of the following codes:

          (1) -Increase.

          (2) -Reduction.

          (3) -Change resulting in neither an increase nor a reduction.

          (4) Any other pertinent symbol or abbreviation.

Ê A separate page may be used for these codes (Form 24C*) or, when symbols are used, a note explaining them may be placed at the bottom of the page or within the block containing the affected item.

     (i) Each new or revised page must have a correction number assigned to it beginning with Correction No. 1 and continuing numerically as new or revised pages are entered in that tariff filing, inserted below the bottom line in the left-hand corner of the page (Form 24E*). Each tariff filed must have a checking sheet for correction numbers (Form 24C*) on page 1 and must be referred to as that tariff filing is revised. One correction number must be assigned to each new or revised page, and no correction number may be used for more than one page.

     (j) If any tariff is reissued that completely cancels a current tariff (Form 24E*), the reissued tariff must bear the same tariff number as the current tariff, suffixed by a letter, for example, Tariff No. 1-A, and continuing through the alphabet as that tariff is reissued. The reissued tariff will be assigned a new number that does not duplicate any other number on any other tariff held by that motor carrier, issuing agency or agent and must be displayed on the reissued tariff as follows:

T.S.A. No. 2

cancels

T.S.A. or P.S.C.N. No. 1

Tariff No. 1-A

cancels

Tariff No. 1

     3. The provisions of this section, except paragraphs (g) and (h) of subsection 2, do not apply to the National Motor Freight Classification or the ATA Hazardous Materials Tariff.
