1Opinion of the Court

HENLEY, Senior Circuit Judge.

The major issue to be decided in this appeal is whether the Interstate Commerce Commission, consistent with its enabling legislation, can allow an incorrectly rejected tariff to take effect as of the date it would have been implemented but for the agency’s prior erroneous rejection. Concluding that the Commission’s action in the present case did not impermissibly conflict with the Interstate Commerce Act, and was not arbitrary or capricious, we affirm.
