P. 0 Box 1833 Huntington, West Virginia 25719 Attention: Mr. L. D. Puffenberger Traffic Manager Gentlement Further reference is made to the request in your letter of June 19, 1972, for review of the settlement (Z4-942130) which disallowed your claim (CB-6032 0/C 1-061) for $37.25 in additional freight charges on a shipment of 15 wooden boxes of aemunition for cannon with explosive projectiles veighing 795 pounds. The shipment was tendered on June 18, 1969, to Tri-State Motor Transit Company at Milan Army Amunition Plant, Milan, Tennessee, for transportation under bill of lading E-6894349 to Camp Drum, Watertown, New York.. . The payment record shows that for the transportation of this shipment your ccpany, as delivering and billing carrier, already has been paid charges of ,37.25 which were coz-puted on a minizum vei;;ht of 2,500 pozuas at the rates of $5.97 and 09.52 per hundred pound1s publizhed to and bcycni Jeffersonville, Indiana.
