Sec.  61.22   Composition of tariffs.

   (a) The tariff must be submitted on a 3 1/2 inch (8.89 cm) diskette, or a 5
   inch CD-ROM, formatted in an IBM-compatible form using either WordPerfect
   5.1, Microsoft Word 6, or Microsoft Word 97 software. No diskettes shall
   contain more than one tariff. The diskette or CD-ROM must be submitted in
   “read only” mode. The diskette or CD-ROM must be clearly labelled with the
   carrier's name, Tariff Number, software used, and the date of submission.
   When multiple diskettes or CD-ROMs are submitted, the issuing carrier shall
   clearly label each diskette in the following format: “1 of _”, “2 of _”,
   etc.

   (b) The tariff must contain the carrier's name, the international Section
   214 authorization FCC file number (when applicable), and the information
   required by Section 203 of the Act.

   (c)(1) Changes to a tariff must be made by refiling the entire tariff on a
   new diskette, with the changed material included. The carrier must indicate
   in the tariff what changes have been made.

   (2) Any issuing carrier submitting an individual tariff that requires ten or
   more diskettes that wishes to revise its tariff is permitted to do so by
   filing a diskette containing only those pages on which the changed material
   is located. Any such carrier shall file a current effective version of its
   entire tariff on the first business day of each month. For purposes of this
   paragraph, “business day” is defined in  Sec. 1.4(e)(2) of this chapter.

   (d)  Domestic  and  international  nondominant carriers subject to the
   provisions of this section are not subject to the tariff filing requirements
   of  Sec. 61.54.

   (e)(1) For contract-based tariffs defined in  Sec. 61.3(m), a separate letter of
   transmittal may accompany each tariff filed, or the above format may be
   modified  for  filing  as many publications as may be desired with one
   transmittal letter. The transmittals must be numbered in a series separate
   from transmittals for non-contract tariff filing. Numbers must appear on the
   face of the transmittal and be in the form of “CTT No. ___”, using CTT as an
   abbreviation for contract-based tariff transmittals, or some similar form
   that indicates that the transmittal is a contract-based tariff transmittal.
   Contract-based tariffs must also be numbered in a series separate from
   non-contract-based tariffs. Numbers must be in the form of “CT No. ___”,
   using CT as an abbreviation for contract-based tariffs, or some similar form
   that  indicates  that  the  tariff  is  a  contract-based tariff. Each
   contract-based tariff must be assigned a separate number. Transmittals and
   tariffs subject to this paragraph shall be filed beginning with the number
   “1” and shall be numbered consecutively.

   (2) Composition of contract-based tariffs shall comply with  Sec.  Sec. 61.54 (b)
   through (i).

   (3) Contract-based tariffs shall include the following:

   (i) The term of the contract, including any renewal options;

   (ii)  A  brief  description of each of the services provided under the
   contract;

   (iii) Minimum volume commitments for each service;

   (iv) The contract price for each service or services at the volume levels
   committed to by the customers;

   (v) A general description of any volume discounts built into the contract
   rate structure; and

   (vi)  A  general  description  of other classifications, practices and
   regulations affecting the contract rate.
