TARIFF FORMAT
Sheet Numbering - Sheet numbers appear in the heading of each sheet. Sheets are
numbered sequentially. However, occasionally, when a new sheet is added between
sheets already in effect, a decimal is added. For example, a new sheet added between
sheets 14 and 15 would be 14.
Sheet Revision Numbers - Revision numbers also appear in the upper left comer of each
sheet. These numbers are used to determine the most current sheet version on file with
the Commission. For example, the 4th revised Sheet 14 cancels the 3rd Revised Sheet
14. Because of various suspension periods, deferrals, etc. the Commission follows in its
Tariff approval process, the most current sheet number on file with the Commission is not
always the sheet in effect. Consult the Check Sheet for the sheet currently in effect.
Paragraph Numbering Sequence - There are nine levels of paragraph coding. Each
level of code is subservient to its next higher level:
1.1.
1. LA.
2. 1. LA. 1.
1.1.A.1.(a).
(a).
1.A.1.(a).I.(i).
1.l.A.1.(a).I.(i).(1).
Check Sheets - When a Tariff filing is made with the Commission, an updated Check
Sheet accompanies the Tariff filing. The Check Sheet lists the sheets contained in the
Tariff with a cross reference to the current revision number. When new sheets are added
the Check Sheet is changed to reflect the revision. All revisions made in a given filing
are designated by and asterisk (*). There will be no other symbols used on this sheet if
these are the only changes made to it (i., the format, etc., remains the same, just revised
revision levels on some sheets). The Tariff user should refer to the latest Check Sheet to
find if a particular sheet is the most current on file with the Commission.
