Shipments of Bulk Cargo (dry or liquid) loaded in intermodal tank
containers will be governed by the additional provisions and
conditions specified in this Rule, and will be assessed ONLY the
rates named in NRAs or Rate Tariffs governed by this Tariff published
to apply on cargo "in bulk," "in tank containers," or applying "per
Tank Container" ("TC").
     
a. Carrier will provide bulk tank service ONLY when Carrier
   can furnish tank equipment suitable for transporting the
   cargo being tendered.  Tank equipment will have been
   rough cleaned (at no charge to the Shipper) prior to
   making it available for Shipper use.  "Rough Cleaned"
   means the tank container is reasonably free from the
   remains of material foreign to the commodity being
   tendered for transportation.
     
b. Except when providing Tank Containers in Dedicated
   Service to a single Shipper, upon request of the
   Shipper, Carrier will, prior to removal of tank
   container from Carrier's Terminal, advise Shipper or his
   agent of the commodity last transported in the tank
   equipment that is to be dispatched to Shipper for
   loading, and shall on arrival of tank equipment at
   Shipper's premises, permit inspection of the tank
   container by Shipper or his agent.
     
   If the Shipper elects, at his own expense, to have the
   interior of the tank container recleaned prior to
   loading, such action shall relieve Carrier of any
   responsibility or liability for any damage,
   contamination or loss of cargo resulting from the
   condition of the interior of the tank container or
   residues found therein.
     
c. The Shipper or his agent MUST load cargo into tank
   container at his own risk and expense, affixing his seal
   to the tank container cargo openings.  Seals will NOT be
   broken until the cargo is unloaded by the Consignee or
   his agent at destination, unless Carrier exercises its
   option to inspect the cargo loaded in the tank
   container.  A notice of such inspection will be made on
   the B/L and/or Shipping Documents.  Bulk cargo shipments
   in intermodal tank containers will be SBJ to the
   provisions of Rule 2.23 (Shipper's Load, Stow and
   Count).  Shipper, Consignee and their agents MUST either
   provide or compensate Carrier when it provides, any
   compressors, pumps, hoses, fittings or other equipment
   necessary to load cargo into tank container or to unload
   cargo from tank container.  Except as otherwise provided
   in individual TLIs, rates named in this Tariff do NOT
   include any charges for providing such equipment or
   services.
     
d. On shipments of cargo moving in tank containers, the
   Carrier's liability will be limited to $500.00 (See
   Carrier's B/L terms and conditions) with respect to the
   entire contents of each container, unless the Shipper
   declares a higher valuation on the shipment (SBJ to all
   terms, conditions and charges named in Rule 12 of
   Tariff).
