	(c)  A pipeline carrier proposing to revise a simplified pipeline tariff for a designated pipeline facility shall file a tariff letter that  
		(1) specifies an effective date for the replacement simplified pipeline tariff at least 90 days following the date of filing; if an earlier effective date is requested the tariff letter must state good cause for the tariff to take effect on the earlier date;  
		(2) describes the proposed revisions; and  
		(3) attaches an affidavit attesting that the revised rules or rates comply with the requirements of 3 AAC 48.462 or 3 AAC 48.464, as applicable.  
	(d)  Each tariff advice letter filed under this section must be designated as TL[number] followed by a hyphen and the number of the pipeline carrier's certificate of public convenience and necessity, if issued.
