Title: 46 CFR Part 540—Application
for Certificate of Financial
Responsibility/Form FMC–131.
OMB Approval Number: 3072–0012
(Expires August 31, 2005).
Abstract: Sections 2 and 3 of Public
Law 89–777 (46 U.S.C. app. 817(d) and
(e)) require owners or charterers of
passenger vessels with 50 or more
passenger berths or stateroom
accommodations and embarking
passengers at United Stated ports and
territories to establish their financial
responsibility to meet liability incurred
for death or injury to passengers and
other persons, and to indemnify
passengers in the event of
nonperformance of transportation. The
Commission’s Rules at 46 CFR part 540
implement Public Law 89–777 and
specify financial responsibility coverage
requirements for such owners and
charterers.
Current Actions: There are no changes
to this information collection, and it is
being submitted for extension purposes
only.
Type of Review: Extension.
Needs and Uses: The information will
be used by the Commission’s staff to
E:\FR\FM\18JYN1.SGM

Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 136 / Monday, July 18, 2005 / Notices
ensure that passenger vessel owners and
charterers have evidenced financial
responsibility to indemnify passengers
and others in the event of
nonperformance or casualty.
Frequency: This information is
collected when applicants apply for a
certificate or when existing certificants
change any information in their
application forms.
Type of Respondents: The types of
respondents are owners, charterers and
operators of passenger vessels with 50
or more passenger berths that embark
passengers from U.S. ports or territories.
Number of Annual Respondents: The
Commission estimates an annual
respondent universe of 50.
Estimated Time Per Response: The
time per response ranges from .5 to 6
person-hours for reporting and
recordkeeping requirements contained
in the rules, and 8 person-hours for
completing Application Form FMC–131.
The total average time for both
requirements for each respondent is
31.48 person-hours.
Total Annual Burden: The
Commission estimates the total personhour burden at 1,574 person-hours.
Title: 46 CFR Part 565—Controlled
Carriers.
OMB Approval Number: 3072–0060
(Expires August 31, 2005).
Abstract: Section 9 of the Shipping
Act of 1984 requires that the FMC
monitor the practices of controlled
carriers to ensure that they do not
maintain rates or charges in their tariffs
and service contracts that are below a
level that is just and reasonable; nor
establish, maintain or enforce unjust or
unreasonable classifications, rules or
regulations in those tariffs or service
contracts which result or are likely to
result in the carriage or handling of
cargo at rates or charges that are below
a just and reasonable level. 46 CFR part
565 establishes the method by which
the Commission determines whether a
particular ocean common carrier is a
controlled carrier subject to section 9 of
the Shipping Act of 1984. When a
government acquires a controlling
interest in an ocean common carrier, or
when a controlled carrier newly enters
a United States trade, the Commission’s
rules require that such a carrier notify
the Commission of these events.
Current Actions: There are no changes
to this information collection, and it is
being submitted for extension purposes
only.
Type of Review: Extension.
Needs and Uses: The Commission
uses these notifications in order to
effectively discharge its statutory duty
to determine whether a particular ocean
common carrier is a controlled carrier
VerDate jul<14>2003
15:11 Jul 15, 2005
Jkt 205001
and therefore subject to the
requirements of section 9 of the
Shipping Act of 1984.
Frequency: The submission of
notifications from controlled carriers is
not assigned to a specific time frame by
the Commission; they are submitted as
circumstances warrant. The
Commission only requires notification
when a majority portion of an ocean
common carrier becomes owned or
controlled by a government, or when a
controlled carrier newly begins
operation in any United States trade.
Type of Respondents: Controlled
carriers are ocean common carriers
which are owned or controlled by a
government.
Number of Annual Respondents:
Although it is estimated that only 5 of
the 8 currently classified controlled
carriers may respond in any given year,
because this is a rule of general
applicability, the Commission considers
the number of annual respondents to be
8. The FMC cannot anticipate when a
new carrier may enter the trade;
therefore, the number of annual
respondents could increase to 10 or
more at any time.
Estimated Time Per Response: The
estimated time for compliance is 7
person-hours per year.
Total Annual Burden: The
Commission estimates the person-hour
burden required to make such
notifications at 56 person-hours per
year.

a schedule of its rates, regulations, and
practices, including limitations of
liability for cargo loss or damage,
pertaining to receiving, delivering,
handling, or storing property at its
marine terminal, subject to section
10(d)(1), 46 U.S.C. app. 1709(d)(1) of the
Act. The Commission’s rules governing
MTO schedules are set forth at 46 CFR
part 525.
Current Actions: There are no changes
to this information collection, and it is
being submitted for extension purposes
only.
Type of Review: Extension.
Needs and Uses: The Commission
uses information obtained from Form
FMC–1 to determine the organization
name, organization number, home office
address, name and telephone number of
the firm’s representatives and the
location of MTO schedules of rates,

regulations and practices, and
publisher, should the MTOs determine
to make their schedules available to the
public, as set forth in section 8(f) of the
Shipping Act.
Frequency: This information is
collected prior to an MTO’s
commencement of its marine terminal
operations.

Abstract: Except with respect to
certain specified commodities, section
8(a) of the Shipping Act of 1984, 46
U.S.C. app. 1707(a), requires that each
common carrier and conference shall
keep open to public inspection, in an
automated tariff system, tariffs showing
its rates, charges, classifications, rules,
and practices between all ports and
points on its own route and on any
through transportation route that has
been established. In addition, individual
carriers or agreements among carriers
are required to make available in tariff
format certain enumerated essential
terms of their service contracts. 46
U.S.C. app. 1707(c). The Commission is
responsible for reviewing the
accessibility and accuracy of automated
tariff systems, in accordance with its
regulations set forth at 46 CFR part 520.
Current Actions: There are no changes
to this information collection, and it is
being submitted for extension purposes
only.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
On May 9, 2005, the FMC published a notice and request for comments
in the Federal Register (70 FR 24413) regarding the agency's request
for continued approval from OMB for information collections as required
by the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995. The FMC received no comments on
any of the requests for extensions of OMB clearance.
The FMC hereby informs potential respondents that an agency may not
conduct or sponsor, and that a person is not required to respond to, a
collection of information unless it displays a currently valid OMB
control number.
Information Collections Open for Comment
Title: 46 CFR Part 540--Application for Certificate of Financial
Responsibility/Form FMC-131.
OMB Approval Number: 3072-0012 (Expires August 31, 2005).
Abstract: Sections 2 and 3 of Public Law 89-777 (46 U.S.C. app.
817(d) and (e)) require owners or charterers of passenger vessels with
50 or more passenger berths or stateroom accommodations and embarking
passengers at United Stated ports and territories to establish their
financial responsibility to meet liability incurred for death or injury
to passengers and other persons, and to indemnify passengers in the
event of nonperformance of transportation. The Commission's Rules at 46
CFR part 540 implement Public Law 89-777 and specify financial
responsibility coverage requirements for such owners and charterers.
Current Actions: There are no changes to this information
collection, and it is being submitted for extension purposes only.
Type of Review: Extension.
Needs and Uses: The information will be used by the Commission's
staff to
[[Page 41224]]
ensure that passenger vessel owners and charterers have evidenced
financial responsibility to indemnify passengers and others in the
event of nonperformance or casualty.
Frequency: This information is collected when applicants apply for
a certificate or when existing certificants change any information in
their application forms.
Type of Respondents: The types of respondents are owners,
charterers and operators of passenger vessels with 50 or more passenger
berths that embark passengers from U.S. ports or territories.
Number of Annual Respondents: The Commission estimates an annual
respondent universe of 50.
Estimated Time Per Response: The time per response ranges from .5
to 6 person-hours for reporting and recordkeeping requirements
contained in the rules, and 8 person-hours for completing Application
Form FMC-131. The total average time for both requirements for each
respondent is 31.48 person-hours.
Total Annual Burden: The Commission estimates the total person-hour
burden at 1,574 person-hours.
Title: 46 CFR Part 565--Controlled Carriers.
OMB Approval Number: 3072-0060 (Expires August 31, 2005).
Abstract: Section 9 of the Shipping Act of 1984 requires that the
FMC monitor the practices of controlled carriers to ensure that they do
not maintain rates or charges in their tariffs and service contracts
that are below a level that is just and reasonable; nor establish,
maintain or enforce unjust or unreasonable classifications, rules or
regulations in those tariffs or service contracts which result or are
likely to result in the carriage or handling of cargo at rates or
charges that are below a just and reasonable level. 46 CFR part 565
establishes the method by which the Commission determines whether a
particular ocean common carrier is a controlled carrier subject to
section 9 of the Shipping Act of 1984. When a government acquires a
controlling interest in an ocean common carrier, or when a controlled
carrier newly enters a United States trade, the Commission's rules
require that such a carrier notify the Commission of these events.
Current Actions: There are no changes to this information
collection, and it is being submitted for extension purposes only.
Type of Review: Extension.
Needs and Uses: The Commission uses these notifications in order to
effectively discharge its statutory duty to determine whether a
particular ocean common carrier is a controlled carrier and therefore
subject to the requirements of section 9 of the Shipping Act of 1984.
Frequency: The submission of notifications from controlled carriers
is not assigned to a specific time frame by the Commission; they are
submitted as circumstances warrant. The Commission only requires
notification when a majority portion of an ocean common carrier becomes
owned or controlled by a government, or when a controlled carrier newly
begins operation in any United States trade.
Type of Respondents: Controlled carriers are ocean common carriers
which are owned or controlled by a government.
Number of Annual Respondents: Although it is estimated that only 5
of the 8 currently classified controlled carriers may respond in any
given year, because this is a rule of general applicability, the
Commission considers the number of annual respondents to be 8. The FMC
cannot anticipate when a new carrier may enter the trade; therefore,
the number of annual respondents could increase to 10 or more at any
time.
Estimated Time Per Response: The estimated time for compliance is 7
person-hours per year.
Total Annual Burden: The Commission estimates the person-hour
burden required to make such notifications at 56 person-hours per year.
Title: 46 CFR Part 525--Marine Terminal Operator Schedules and
Related Form FMC-1.
OMB Approval Number: 3072-0061 (Expires August 31, 2005).
Abstract: Section 8(f) of the Shipping Act of 1984, 46 U.S.C. app.
1707(f), provides that a marine terminal operator (MTO) may make
available to the public a schedule of its rates, regulations, and
practices, including limitations of liability for cargo loss or damage,
pertaining to receiving, delivering, handling, or storing property at
its marine terminal, subject to section 10(d)(1), 46 U.S.C. app.
1709(d)(1) of the Act. The Commission's rules governing MTO schedules
are set forth at 46 CFR part 525.
Current Actions: There are no changes to this information
collection, and it is being submitted for extension purposes only.
