§ 101-40.303-3 - Most fuel efficient carrier/mode.  


Latest version.
  • When more than one mode, or more than one carrier within a mode, can satisfy the service requirements of a specific shipment at the same lowest aggregate delivered cost, the carrier/mode determined to be the most fuel efficient shall be selected. In determining the most fuel efficient carrier/mode, consideration shall be given to such factors as use of the carrier's equipment in “turn around” service, proximity of carrier equipment to the shipping activity, and ability of carriers to provide the most direct service to the destination points.
