Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request, 50117-50118 [E6-13998]

Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 71, No. 164 / Thursday, August 24, 2006 / Notices rmajette on PROD1PC67 with NOTICES1 the motor carrier may attempt to bill the shipper, who has already paid the broker for the shipment. It is also designed to protect motor carriers who are not paid for their services but are unwilling or unable to seek payment from the shipper. Section 13906(b) financial responsibility requirements are expressly linked to broker registration by the statute. In other words, without a registration requirement, FMCSA has no statutory authority to impose a bonding requirement to protect shippers and carriers against unscrupulous or financially irresponsible general commodities brokers. As is the case with brokers, the financial responsibility requirements applicable to freight forwarders are expressly linked to the registration requirement. Under 49 U.S.C. 13906(c)(1), FMCSA may register a person as a freight forwarder only if the person files with the agency evidence of public liability insurance to cover negligent operation, maintenance or use of motor vehicles by or under direction and control of the freight forwarder when providing transfer, collection or delivery services. Section 13906(c)(2) permits FMCSA to also require registered freight forwarders to file freight forwarder insurance to cover loss or damage to cargo for which the freight forwarder provides service. There are no independent financial responsibility requirements for the protection of shippers that would apply if general commodities freight forwarders are no longer being registered. Based on the foregoing, FMCSA finds that continued registration of nonhousehold goods freight forwarders under 49 U.S.C. 13903 and nonhousehold goods brokers under 49 U.S.C. 13904 is needed for the protection of shippers. We also note that brokers and freight forwarders must register pursuant to 49 U.S.C. 13901 to engage in interstate transportation. Finally, based on FMCSA’s determination above regarding the protection of shippers, any registration appropriately filed between August 10, 2005 (the date of enactment of SAFETEA–LU) and the date of this Notice shall be effective on the date the registration was approved by FMCSA.
