§ 101-40.303-4 - Equitable distribution of traffic among carriers.

When more than one mode of transportation or more than one carrier within a mode can provide equally satisfactory service at the same aggregate cost and all modes are equally fuel efficient, the traffic shall be distributed as equally as practicable among the modes and among the carriers within the modes. When socially or economically disadvantaged carriers and women-owned carriers are among the eligible competing carriers, positive action will be taken to include such carriers in the equitable distribution of traffic.
