Released:  December 6, 2011

 

Dear CSXT Customer, Business Partner and Tariff Subscriber:

The Hazardous Rules Circular CSXT 4049, effective January 1, 2012, is now issued and available on CSX.com. It contains CSXT’s rules, requirements, and policies for shipping hazardous materials (including Toxic Inhalation Hazard (TIH) and Poison Inhalation Hazard (PIH) materials).  It will include accessorial pricing for all hazardous materials on our network. 

CSXT’s rules, requirements, and policies for movement of Hazardous and Non-hazardous waste will continue to be governed by the CSXT 4048 Publication.  It establishes a series of rules for movement of hazardous material in railroad or private cars on CSXT. Assessorial charges for hazardous waste are available in the CSXT 8100, and are priced effective January 1, 2012 at the same levels as those covered specifically by the new CSXT 4049 - Hazardous Rules Circular.

The changes outlined below will impact many of our customers, so please consult CSXT tariff 4049 on our website for details on the items that are relevant to your business.
