Title: 46 CFR 515—Licensing, Financial Responsibility Requirements and General Duties for Ocean Transportation Intermediaries and Related Forms. OMB Approval Number: 3072–0018 (Expires July 31, 2007). Abstract: Section 19 of the Shipping Act of 1984 (the ‘‘Act’’), 46 U.S.C. 40901–40904 (2006), as modified by Public Law 105–258 (The Ocean Shipping Reform Act of 1998) and Section 424 of Public Law 105–383 (The Coast Guard Authorization Act of 1998), provides that no person in the United States may act as an ocean transportation intermediary (‘‘OTI’’) unless that person holds a license issued by the Commission. The Commission shall issue an OTI license to any person that the Commission determines to be qualified by experience and character to act as an OTI. Further, no person may act as an OTI unless that person furnishes a bond, proof of insurance or other surety in a form and amount determined by the Commission to ensure financial responsibility. The Commission has implemented the provisions of section 19 in regulations contained in 46 CFR part 515, including To obtain additional information, copies of the information collection and instructions, or copies of any comments received, contact Jane Gregory, Management Analyst, Office of Administration, Federal Maritime Commission, 800 North Capitol Street, NW., Washington, DC 20573, pwalker on PROD1PC71 with NOTICES FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: VerDate Aug<31>2005 19:26 Jun 07, 2007 Jkt 211001 PO 00000 Frm 00038 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 financial responsibility forms FMC–48, FMC–67, FMC–68, and FMC–69, Optional Rider Forms FMC–48A and FMC–69A, and its related license application form, FMC–18. Current Actions: The Commission intends to revise Form FMC–18, Application for a License as an Ocean Transportation Intermediary. Specifically, language is being added to the Privacy Act Notice regarding voluntary disclosure of the applicant’s Social Security Number, and the System of Records citation is being updated. In the Paperwork Reduction Act Notice, the estimated time to prepare an Application is being revised from 1.5 hours per response to 2 hours. Throughout the Application, any reference to the Bureau of Consumer Complaints and Licensing (‘‘BCCL’’) has been changed to the Bureau of Certification and Licensing (‘‘BCL’’). Also, language has been added to Question 7(2) in Part B, and to Question 13(3) in Part D, allowing applicant or its qualifying individual to disclose whether he/she has ‘‘been declared bankrupt, been subject to a tax lien, or had legal judgment rendered for a debt.’’ In accordance with the Privacy Act of 1974, this would allow the agency, to the greatest extent practicable, to collect information about an applicant that may be used in making a decision with respect to the granting of an OTI license, directly from the applicant. Type of Review: Revision of information collection contained in Form FMC–18, Application for a License as an Ocean Transportation Intermediary. Needs and Uses: The Commission uses information obtained under 46 CFR part 515 and through Form FMC–18 to determine the qualifications of OTIs and their compliance with shipping statutes and regulations and to enable the Commission to discharge its duties under the Act by ensuring that OTIs maintain acceptable evidence of financial responsibility. If the collection of information were not conducted, there would be no basis upon which the Commission could determine if applicants are qualified for licensing. Frequency: This information is collected when applicants apply for a license or when existing licensees change certain information in their application forms. Type of Respondents: The respondents are persons desiring to obtain a license to act as an OTI. Under the Act, OTIs may be either an ocean freight forwarder, a non-vessel-operating common carrier, or both.

Information Collection Open for Comment

    Title: 46 CFR 515--Licensing, Financial Responsibility Requirements 
and General Duties for Ocean Transportation Intermediaries and Related 
Forms.
    OMB Approval Number: 3072-0018 (Expires July 31, 2007).
    Abstract: Section 19 of the Shipping Act of 1984 (the ``Act''), 46 
U.S.C. 40901-40904 (2006), as modified by Public Law 105-258 (The Ocean 
Shipping Reform Act of 1998) and Section 424 of Public Law 105-383 (The 
Coast Guard Authorization Act of 1998), provides that no person in the 
United States may act as an ocean transportation intermediary (``OTI'') 
unless that person holds a license issued by the Commission. The 
Commission shall issue an OTI license to any person that the Commission 
determines to be qualified by experience and character to act as an 
OTI. Further, no person may act as an OTI unless that person furnishes 
a bond, proof of insurance or other surety in a form and amount 
determined by the Commission to ensure financial responsibility. The 
Commission has implemented the provisions of section 19 in regulations 
contained in 46 CFR part 515, including financial responsibility forms 
FMC-48, FMC-67, FMC-68, and FMC-69, Optional Rider Forms FMC-48A and 
FMC-69A, and its related license application form, FMC-18.
    Current Actions: The Commission intends to revise Form FMC-18, 
Application for a License as an Ocean Transportation Intermediary. 
Specifically, language is being added to the Privacy Act Notice 
regarding voluntary disclosure of the applicant's Social Security 
Number, and the System of Records citation is being updated. In the 
Paperwork Reduction Act Notice, the estimated time to prepare an 
Application is being revised from 1.5 hours per response to 2 hours. 
Throughout the Application, any reference to the Bureau of Consumer 
Complaints and Licensing (``BCCL'') has been changed to the Bureau of 
Certification and Licensing (``BCL''). Also, language has been added to 
Question 7(2) in Part B, and to Question 13(3) in Part D, allowing 
applicant or its qualifying individual to disclose whether he/she has 
``been declared bankrupt, been subject to a tax lien, or had legal 
judgment rendered for a debt.'' In accordance with the Privacy Act of 
1974, this would allow the agency, to the greatest extent practicable, 
to collect information about an applicant that may be used in making a 
decision with respect to the granting of an OTI license, directly from 
the applicant.
    Type of Review: Revision of information collection contained in 
Form FMC-18, Application for a License as an Ocean Transportation 
Intermediary.
    Needs and Uses: The Commission uses information obtained under 46 
CFR part 515 and through Form FMC-18 to determine the qualifications of 
OTIs and their compliance with shipping statutes and regulations and to 
enable the Commission to discharge its duties under the Act by ensuring 
that OTIs maintain acceptable evidence of financial responsibility. If 
the collection of information were not conducted, there would be no 
basis upon which the Commission could determine if applicants are 
qualified for licensing.
    Frequency: This information is collected when applicants apply for 
a license or when existing licensees change certain information in 
their application forms.
    Type of Respondents: The respondents are persons desiring to obtain 
a license to act as an OTI. Under the Act, OTIs may be either an ocean 
freight forwarder, a non-vessel-operating common carrier, or both.
    Number of Annual Respondents: The Commission estimates a potential

[[Page 31833]]

annual respondent universe of 4,765 entities.
    Estimated Time Per Response: The time per response for completing 
Application Form FMC-18 averages 2 hours. The time to complete a 
financial responsibility form averages 20 minutes.
    Total Annual Burden: The Commission estimates the annual burden for 
Form FMC-18 to be 1,400 person-hours, and for the financial 
responsibility forms to be 2,196 hours. The total annual person-hour 
burden for this collection is estimated to be 3,596 person-hours.

Secretary.
