Section 770-X-10-.05-.09 - Supplements; Revised Pages(1) AMENDMENTS. Any change, addition or deletion to a bound tariff must be made by reissuance of the tariff, or by the issuance of a supplement thereto. Each supplement to the bound tariff must be consecutively numbered starting with the numeral "I". Changes in loose-leaf tariffs shall be made by the issuance of a revised page or pages showing the change. Such revised pages shall be numbered and published as provided in 770-X-10-5-.03(E). Supplements shall not be issued to loose-leaf tariffs except for the purposes of tariff cancellation, tariff adoption notices, publishing conversion tables of rates and/or charges or publishing suspension notices.(2) TITLE PAGE FORM AND ARRANGEMENT. The title page of each supplement shall follow the same form and arrangement as the title page of the tariff.(3) SIZE AND ARRANGEMENT. The material content of each supplement or loose-leaf page shall follow the same size, order and arrangement as set forth in the tariff which the supplement or loose-leaf amends.(4) CANCELLATION OF PARTICIPATING CARRIERS AND RATES. A supplement or loose-leaf page which proposes the elimination of a participating carrier must provide for the cancellation of all rates, charges, and arrangements in connection with the carrier to be eliminated from the tariff.(5) CHANGES; SYMBOLS. All tariff changes which result in increases, reduction or changes in wording shall be symboled, using the symbols provided in 770-X-10-.05 -.06(E).(6) NUMBER OF EFFECTIVE SUPPLEMENTS PERMITTED. The number of supplements to any one tariff which may be in effect at any time will be as follows: NUMBER OF PAGES IN ORIGINAL TARIFF (Inclusive) | NUMBER OF EFFECTIVE SUPPLEMENTS PERMITTED |
1 to 4 | 0 |
5 to 20 | 2 |
21 to 100 | 4 |
100 to 200 | 5 |
Over 200 | 6 |
The effective supplements to any tariff may not contain at any time an aggregate total number of pages exceeding 50 percent of the total number of pages in the original tariff. Cancellation, suspension and adoption notices or conversion tables will not be included when counting the number of supplements or pages which may be in effect.
(7) REISSUED ITEMS REPRODUCED IN FULL. When a change is made by supplement or by loose-leaf pages affecting an item, rule, rate or charge, such item, rule, rate or charge shall be reissued in its entirety as amended.(8) CANCELLATIONS: REISSUANCE.(a) Where rates, charges and rules are published by item number, the reissue of such rates, charges and rules by supplement to a bound tariff shall be identified as the same number plus a letter suffix--for example: Item 1-A cancels Item 1; Item 1-B cancels Item 1-A, and so on. Items brought forward without change from a supplement to another supplement must be designated as "Reissued", and must show the original date and the number of the supplement from which it is reissued, or must be uniformly indicated by the supplement number in a square, and the explanation thereof must be made in the tariff or supplements in which the symbols are used- Examples:
"Reissued from Supplement No. _______,
effective___________________." Or
" 1 reissued for Supplement No. 1
effective ________________. "
(b) UNNUMBERED TARIFF MATTER. Where tariff matter is not published in a numbered unit, the reissuance by supplement to a bound tariff shall reproduce all said material in its entirety, and cancellation reference shall be made to the page of the tariff or prior supplement from which the reissued material originated.(c) REPRODUCTION OF CANCELLED MATTER. When any rate or provision contained in an item is amended, resulting in the cancellation of all or a portion thereof, the cancelled matter shall not be reproduced in the new item affecting the cancellation except to the extent necessary to identify the item.(d) STATEMENT OF CANCELLATION; MATTER WITHDRAWN OR EXPIRED. If an item is withdrawn in its entirety or expires by its own terms, a statement of the cancellation or expiration shall be brought forward in subsequent supplements as a reissued item, bearing the same item number and the appropriate letter suffix.(e) REUSE OF ITEM NUMBERS. When the provisions of an item have been eliminated by cancellation or expiration, they may not be reinstated except by republication in a revised item bearing a new number.(f) NOTATION; SHORT NOTICE. Every supplement or loose-leaf page which consists partly, but not wholly, of matter established upon less than statutory notice shall show in connection with each change the notation provided in 770-X-10-5-.04(h).(g) UPDATED LISTS OF ITEMS; CHECK SHEETS. Every supplement of eight or more pages issued to a bound tariff, except conversion table supplements, shall provide near the front of the supplement a cumulative list of all items and numbered units that have been added, cancelled or changed by supplement together with reference to the number of the supplement where each is last shown. When the original loose-leaf tariff is filed, the next page 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, and the revised pages shall accompany such pages when forwarded to the Commission for filing. Effective and to be effective supplements shall also be listed on the check sheet. Cancellation of supplements when they have served their purpose shall be effected by reissuance of the check sheet and a notation to that effect made thereon.
