Tariffs, policies, publications, and notices can affect pricing on coal shipments. Many costs are also market specific which provides a backstop pricing option if you prefer not to negotiate a contract movement. This section provides an overview of cost, allowable(s), and conditions.

Tariffs

• Tariffs outline current rules and guidelines governing the movement of coal trains.
• Notices and supplements describe changes that have been made in the tariffs after the initial document was published.
• Market-specific tariffs are available for our Export, River, and Tidewater coal markets.
• The Open-Top Car Policy defines our procedure for maximum allowable weight and overload conditions.
