The rates published in item 1000 applied to all the packages
shipped by petitioner.
Petitioner provided its shippers with a rate card that
enabled shippers to determine what petitioner would charge for a
particular shipment. The distance a package was to travel
determined the number of zones from the point of origin that the
package would cross. A package shipped to zone 2, for example,
would travel approximately 150 miles. A package shipped to zone
3 would travel up to 300 miles. Zone 8 was the furthest zone and
distance a package would travel within the United States. Zones
2 through 8 were represented as column headings at the top of the
rate card.
Weight categories also determined how much petitioner
charged shippers for transporting a particular package. The rate
card listed weights down the left side of the table in 1-pound
increments from 1 pound to 50 pounds. By cross-referencing the
zone and the weight, a shipper could determine the exact shipping
charge for a particular package whose released value did not
exceed $100. There was an additional charge under the tariff
