    In subsection (a), the words ``(except an air express company)'' are 
substituted for ``(other than companies engaged in the air express 
business)'' to eliminate unnecessary words.
    In subsection (b), before clause (1), the words ``participating 
carriers'' are substituted for ``carriers parties thereto'' and 
``carriers participating therein'' for consistency in this chapter.
    In subsection (c), the words ``or the Interstate Commerce 
Commission, as the case may be'' are omitted because of 
49:10526(a)(8)(B).


                             Pub. L. 105-102

    This amends the catchline for 49:41502 to make a technical and 
conforming amendment necessary because section 308(l) of the ICC

from the text of 49:41502.

    1997--Pub. L. 105-102 struck out ``common'' before ``carriers'' in 
section catchline.
    1995--Pub. L. 104-88 substituted ``another carrier'' for ``another 
common carrier'' in subsec. (a) and ``a carrier'' for ``a common 
carrier'' in subsecs. (a), (b), and (c).

    Amendment by Pub. L. 104-88 effective Jan. 1, 1996, see section 2 of
