        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[No agricultural rate cases have been filed using the Board's simplified rate case methodologies, yet agricultural shippers continue to voice concerns regarding the level of their rates. The Board is opening this new proceeding to obtain input from interested parties on grain shippers' ability to effectively seek relief for unreasonable rates, as well as proposals for modifying existing procedures, or new alternative rate relief methodologies, should they be necessary.]]></ABSTRACT>
