Abstract

The ICC Termination Act of 1995 (ICCTA) eliminated the tariff requirements formerly applicable to rail carriers, but imposed instead certain obligations to disclose common carriage rates and service terms as well as a requirement for advance notice of increases in such rates or a change in service terms. The ICCTA requires the Board to promulgate regulations to administer these new obligations by June 29, 1996. The Board adds a new part 1300 to its regulations for that purpose.
